MARSH IN A BAD PLIGHT
Ranch Hand Arrested al StdrbuCk
on Horse Stealing Charge
DEPUTY HAv|LAYD WORKS Up THE CASE
ARREST CLEARS UP DISAPPEAR
ANcE OF THREE VALUABLE
HORSES LAST WEEK..
DEPUTY HAY|LAyD WORKS UP The CASE

William Marsh, ranch hand.
charged with stealing three valuable
work horses from DR.. J. A. Gross,
month ago and selling them near Lind
station to farmers in that vicinity,
was arrested at Starbuck late yester-
day afternoon on telegraphic instruc-
tions from Deputy Sheriff Haviland,
who has been working on the case ever
since the horses disappeared from a
corral near Garden City heights. Dep
uty Haviland left for Starbuck on the
1880 train this morning and will re-
turn tonight with his prisoner.
Marsh was employed with a ploWlng
crew on DR.. Gross ranch near Star
buck but threw up his job about a
month ago when the outfit was being
moved from Starbuck to Helix, Oregon,
where DR.. Gross has another farm.
The outfit arrived in Walla Walla
late at night and the foreman put 'iio
horses about 80 in number, in a corral
near Garden City Heights. The next
morning the gate was found wide open
and the horses all gone.
Twenty-seven of them were located
in the city pound and recovered but
three of the most valuable horses OF
the lot had completely disappeared.
The officers suspicioned Marsh and an
other man and few days ago found
that Marsh had sold the three horses
to farmers near Lind station and was
heading for Starbuck. He was arrested
there last night soon after landing IN
town on instructions from deputy
Hayiland. The officers believe thal
Marsh followed the outfit from star
buck to Walla Walla and waited for an
opportunity to let the horses loose, ex-
pecting that the impression would pre-
val, that the animals had simply
straved away. According to the offi-
GERS Marsh heretofore has borne a
good reputation.
