JOE PETE sURRENDERs.
Taken to the Ormsby Co. Jail by
Vim. Johnson.


Last Wednesday morning about
o'clock w. s. johnson of Genoa de-
livered Joe Pete, the Indian who killed
Will Dangberg, to Sheriff Kinney of
Ormsby county. The Indian was
turned over to the Sheriff at the door
of the Ormsby county Jail in Carson.
johnson took receipt for the prisoner
and the Indian was locked up in the
Jail.
Early Wednesday morning Sheriff
Brockliss and District Attorney Turner
of this county We're notified by tele-
phone. They went to Carson and Joe
Pete was turned over to Sheriff Brock
liss in the presence of Mr.. Turner and
others by Mr.. Johnson.
The four captains of the Washoe
tribe were present. They did not want
Pete taken to Genoa and seemed to
think that he should be kept in the
Ormsby county Jail. So Sheriff Brock
liss decided to leave him there in
charge of Sheriff Kinney.
The capture was effected just east
of the McTarnahan bridge.
The Neaos says:
Since the shooting Pete has been, he
says, ranging between Markleeville
and Antelope. Constable Crawford, OF
the latter place, has been looking for
him several months, and Pete says
Crawford nearly overlook him three
or four different times. He says they
were very close together and while
Crawford did not see him Pete had the
constable covered through the sights
of his rife and would have dropped
him probably had he been discovered
All Pete has to say in his own behalf
to the public is "Gime fair trial L
hang 'em, alright. Want fair trial.
Mr.. Johnson and an Indian visited
Carson about ten days before the cap
ture, and it is supposed that attorney
VIM. WOODBURY. was engaged at tha
time to defend Pete. 1t is probable
that the defense will be that the kill
ing was not premeditated.
1t is generally believed here tina
Pete will be tried in this county, bu
he will probably remain in Ormsby
county until the date of the trial.
1t is claimed that Joe Pete did no
pass through this valley on his way Il
Carson. He is said to be somewha
diamond-faced, with full glazing eyes
He was quiet and sober when Distric
Attorney Turner saw him in Jail Wed
nesday. He told Turner that he sui
fered greatly during his exile in tn,
mountains.
LATER.-Mr. Johnson was in Gard
nerville last evening and called at tn,
COURIER office. He said lie had been
working on the case about thre,
months and got the Indian to Civ,
himself up. Joe Pete was alone wher
he captured him. There were abou
fifteen Indians, all armed with rifles
about two miles behind him. Whether
Joe Pete was trying to get away from
them or not Johnson does not know.
Johnson told Pete that he wanted
him and Pete stepped forward and
handed him his gun. When the Other
Indians came up Johnson told them
that he was going to take Pete to Car
son. They said all right, and added
that they would go along and see thai
he got there safely.
johnson says an extra reward Of
500 has been offered for the arrest
and conviction of the person who sold
Pete whisky at the time of the murder
Johnson says Pete told him who sold
the whisky and he is now looking for
additional evidence.
