Marshal Mauss ana the other officers

knew Ryan say he always carried a

MURDERED WHILE ASLEEP.
The theory advanced by some is that

laid down on his bed TO sleep, and II
Is believed that his two companions
struck him a blow on The head and
then robbed him. In order to make
their escape more certain they then
bound their Victim TO prevent him from
following them or giving an alarm. II
Is thought that Ryan partially recoy-
cred from the effects Of the blow and
struggled 10 prevent being bound; then
1t was that the murderers evidently
strangled him Into submission aud
probably choked him to death. They
then covered him over with Quilt
and, taking all his money, departed

The foulest and most cold-blooded
murder which has occurred In TINS
county since the murder of James H.
HAY. came 70 light yesterday afternoon
ahout 30 o'clock when the decomposed
body Of William Y. Ryan. transient
optlclan and spectacle vendor was
found beneath the willows which line
the banks Of Little Cottonwood creek
o short distance east Of Murray, the
mans hands were bound behind MN
with a whip lash the ankles were tied
together with a rope and q leather
strap was wrapped around his body Sc
curing the arms in an immoyable posi-
tion,
Tied to the wheel Of the mans wagon
was white bulldog, which had
watched over the dead body Of his mas
Ter for perhaps several days. The horses
were tethered out nearby and showed
slgns Of neglect. The advanced stage
Of decomposition Of the body indicated
that the man had been dead for about
d hours. The throat was considerably
dlscolored and showed evidences Of
strangulation It is believed by the au-
1horites that woman who Travelled
with Ryan had something to do with
his death. She and another man. who
was the third member Of the party
have disappeared and only a very mea-
ger clue Is left as to their Identity.
Ryan is known to have had considera-
Bile money on his person, so II is be-
iieved that robbery was the motive for
The crime.
SEEN ON SATURDAY.
According to the statement Of Mrs,
"A. ]. Tame and others, who reside in
the vicinity OF where the horrible trag-
edy occurred, Ryan was last seen alive
on Saturday. On that afternoon he and
the woman in the case called at Mrs.

water. The woman is described to be
very dark and about 80 years OF age.
She was dressed On a black dress and
had every appearance Of being a gypsy.
The other man IN the party was des-
crlbed as being rather dark. a little be.
low the medium height and about 80
years OF age.
SHOCKING DISCOVERY.

cred the body yesterday afternoon as
they were returning from work. They
stopped TO water their horse close to
Ryans camp and noticed the nauseat-
ing smell from the dead body. They en-
tered the field and saw the wagon,
horses and bulldog there.
NOTIFIED SHERIFF.
They also noticed what appeared 10
be a pile OF bedding just short dis
lance from the wagon. The scent which
came from that direction convinced
them that a dead body was concealed
beneath the bedding and they immedi-
ntely went 10 the home Of Dr. August
