buying the cattle from an old man from Mud
Springs and hiring Lopez to drive them at
night, in order to avoid the dogs which made
such work difficult in the daytime. No such
old gentleman had been mentioned in Mill
er's presence and Lopez had appeared in
the transaction on his own account.
No evidence was offered I'M behalf of the
defendant, and Justice Young rendered, as
the judgment of the court, that there was
probable cause to believe Flournoy guilty
as charged of the crime of stealing four
cows, the property of Dolores Vejar, the
owner of the Laguna ranch. Flournoy'
bond was increased from $4,000 to S2500 and
he was held to answer to the superior court.
The preliminary hearing of the complaint
against Romualdo Lopez, for stealing the
cattle delivered to Flournoy, was continued
to November 25th at $3.50 a. m, by consent
of counsel, and the other charge of mis-
demeanor resting against Lopez, wherein he
was charged with stealing four hogs, was dis
missed, on motion of Assistant District At
torney Williams. Lopez confesses to grand
larceny, and it was deemed best not to press
the minor charge.
