"BRONCHO BILL"
And His Partner Now in the
 Black River Country.

''Bronche Bill" and hls companion, Bill Johnson, who held up a train on the Southern Pacific, near Belen, New Mexico. last week, are now in hiding in the southern papt of this county, in the Black river country. WeIl-known parties have had long interviews with them. Both men are wounded. "Bron- cho" is shot through the left thigh, while Johnson "got it in the neck :" However, both are mere flesh wounds, from which they will soon recover and be in condition to show up along the railroad right of way.
 They showed one person over $7,000. the proceeds of their recent raid. This pretty efeetually disposes of the ex- press cOmpany's estimate of the loss, which was the stereotyped five hun dred dollars" This IS absolutely cer- tain, as it is well known that the Grants incident resulted in & water.haul.
 As these outlaws have added murder to their former crime of train robbery, by killing Deputies Vigil and Rnsta mente, of Valencia county, the express company will probably be forced to send Detective Thacker ct als. after them. As these officers are not we'll acquainted with the country, the firm of Brnncho x Go. will probably continue 10 do business. The case of Parker, the Prescott murderer, is exactly simi- lar. His caDtOr now has 8 suit pending against the express company, in the district court of CoconIne county. for the reward offered for Parker's arrest, and which was fairly earned.
 Should the party now enjoying the cool breezeS and fine scenery of White mountains be caught, they will then be first tried for murder, and thereupoE the express company will refuse to pay any reward for theIr apprehension. for the reason that they "were not con- vlcted of the crime of train robbery" The ordinary peace officer hestates be- fore goIng to the trouble and expense Of organizing posse for the purpose of rounding up outlaws. and then after the work is accomplished, knowing tn at his just claim for remuneration will be repudiated on a technicalitv

ANOTHER KILLING.
4 Boy Murdered in the White
 Mountains.

A boy by the name of Reyes Chavez. employed by Juan Candelaria at his lambing camp in the White mountains,
 was killed on last Friday. the 18th inst.
 by companion of about the same age,
 named Euis Ortiz. It seems that both
 boys Were in charge of 8 bunch of sheep, and late m the evening, Ortiz returned to camp and reported that 1 Chavez had left, but that the sheep were s& fely coFraled for the night. At that time nothing strange was thought of the story, but in the morning other parties went out 10 the corral and found the body of Chavez, with bullet hole through his head, the ball having en- tered in the middle of the forehead and came out immediately behind, on & level. The face was considerably powder burned. and the ground in the vicinity bore evidence of considerable of struggle. The body and clothing also showed tha: they had come in con- tact with the campfire, but whether thts was caused by falling in the fire when shot or an attempt at cremation by the murderer, was not certain.
 Upon the discovery of the body be- ing made, OrIiz declared that he had seen a stranger near the camp oR the evening before, ,and soon the crowd was trying to cut the trail of the mythical murderer. After some time spent in thus manner, it occurred to some that an inquest should be held. Justice Leandro Ortega, of Concho, was sent for, who came, impanneled jury and proceeded to examine the only witness Ortiz. Before the coroner, the wit ness weakened and confessed to the Killing, st the same time claiming that it. was the result of an accident which occurred while the two boys were en- gagged Tn wrestling.
 A preliminary examination was held immediately after the verdict of the coroner's jury, which charged OrtIz with the commission of the offense. Justice Ortega bound him over to await the acton of the next grand jury, fix ing bal at $l 900. in default of which he was remanded to the county jail. He was delivered into the custody of the sheriff on last Tuesday by the con- stable of Concho pIeclnct

More Land.
Gazette l


 Governor McCord was detained at Tucson over Tuesday, when, in fact his plans on leaving Phoenix Sunday night were to be there only on Monday to attend the meeting of the board of regents of the territorial university. The cause of the delay was found in the action of the United States supreme court deciding iu favor of the govern. ment on the Algopdones land grant in Yuma county. The decision immedIa. tely opened for settlement 10000 acres of the finest lands in Yuma county which need only water to make them "bloom like the rose." The opportunity was one to be seized upon and Governor McCord immediately selected four and ee.quarter sections of the best part of the grant on behalf of the university of Arizona.
 The law permits the university to set apart seventy sections of the surveyed lands of the territory. Of this the university has already about sixty sections, leaving ten to be located. The amount secured by the governor leaves very little more until the quota is filled.
 Business before the general land office therefore occupied the attention of Governor McCord on Tuesday and he was Tn consequence delayed on hls visit to Yuma.
 It may be men toned in this connect ion that Senator Ives, according to the report of the Tucson Star "Wednesday morning, materially assisted the gov ernor in making the selections, as he is thoroughly acquainted with almost every foot of the grant.

 The annual meeting of the territorial board of immigration commissioners was held at the executive chambers yesterday afternoon, There was pres ent, Governor McCord, ex.oflcio chair man. T. c. Jordan. Maricopa county, John c. Martin, of Yavapai county, w. B. Kelly, of Graham county, and c. O. Anderson, of Navajo county. There were represented by proxy, J. w. Dor rington, of Yuma county. Herbert Brown, of Pima. Anson Smith, of Mohave. c. M. Funston, of Coconino, and Walter Scott, of Apache.
 Several subjects were under discuss ion. the most important of which vas the matter ofprInting the report of the commission. Though the law creating the commission provides for this ex- penditure and in fact does not limit it. the report has heretofore been made a part of the governors report and has in consequence been made too brief to fully meet the purpose of the commiss- ion.
 Nothing was decided upon at the meeting of yesterday. It was resolved | to adjourn until June 25. and in the meantime an effort will be made tG secure large personal attendance.

Stockmen who intend shouldering the old musket in the event of war should beware of the friend who stays at home and agrees to brand his year lings just the same as he does his own. The Beeville (Texas) Bee, interviewed an old stockman the other day and this is the way he puts it.
 "The fellow that talks most of war is not always the man who goes to the front When the question of secession was agitated I was comparatively young and didn't have any more wisdom than young men of my age usually packed around with them. There were some very rantankerous secessionists among my &C., quaintances, and absorb good deal of the war spirit from them. When the time came to enl,st persuaded me to go.

Judge Davis, in passing sentence, in Tombstone, on Wm Garvey, who plead guilty to grand larceny in stealing cattle from the ranchers ln the Huachuca country, spoke of the protection that by right should and must be afforded cattlemen and ofthe difficulty of fasten- Ing crime upon the perpetrators. The people generally down that way had come to the conclusion that it was use- less to have a cattle thief arrested, be- cause of the fact that it seemed impos- sible to convict. It is possible that Judge Davis will change their way of thinking. and that after all there is some protection to be offered the cattle men of Southern Arizona through tue medium of the courts. Of this they will surely be glad tc learn.-South- western Stockman.
