not HIS SONS,
GATES INSISTS
Father Declares Men Killed
in Arizona We're Not
the Fugitive Brothers
SEES THE PHOTOGRAPHS
Detective Thacker Is Not
So Positive Therefore as
to His Identification

C. G. Gates, father of the Gates boys,
after comparing the photographs
brought back from Lordsburg, Ariz.,
by John Thacker, the Wells-Fargo
Company detective, emphatically de-
nies that the two men killed there by
the posse were his sons.
My wife has not been rendered an
invalid by the report that her sons were
dead" said Mr.. Gates yesterday. Far
from ii, she has every reason to be-
lieve that her boys are safe and alive.
Those men killed in Lordsburg,
AriZ., were not of the Gates family, as
any one can readily see by comparl-
son of the pictures here with those
given me by Thacker.
My sons have been accused with
every crime on record since newspa-
per stories reported their connection
with the killing of Express Messenger
O'Neil, and in justice to them and my
self think that the crime of holding
up the saloon at Lordsburg should not
be attributed to them"
John Thacker of the Wells Fargo
Company detective force saw the bod
les after they had been buried nearly
four weeks. They had been eXhumed
twice in the meantime for examina-
ton. He says he made a careful in
spection and found remarkable re-
semblance to the Gates boys. The
heavier Of the two bodies, supposed to
be that of George, had plain marks of
the gunshot wounds as set forth in
the description of George Gates. The
smaller of the bodies had the crown OF
a front tooth pulled or broken off and
this corresponded with the description
OF Vernon Gates. The weight and size
were the same in each case as that Of
the hunted men. Either remarkable
resemblances or the Gates boys them
selves, says Detective Thacker.
In view of the positive denial of the
father that the men killed in Lords
burg are his sons, Detective Thack-
er would not give a positive opinion as
TO the identity of the dead men.

While an Industrious plumber was

union hour for cessation of labor had
passed, and when the plumber tried to

still more wroth and struck him. When
asked by Judge Conlan what he did for
a livelihood James replied that he had
no regular vocation, but did not con-

resultant Of an involuntary emission of

postponed further hearing of the case
until he has consulted a medical die

Judge Cabaniss declined to trans
form his tribunal into collection bu-

withdraw his charge of battery against

Peter to pay the SIS wages which Mi

when the battery was committed.
Michael and Peter are children of
Greece.

Honor. Although you, Michael, can
hardly be blamed for endeavoring to

comes.
