Edward Innes. has been run To the
ground.
Within four days after the foul
deed had been committed and the
prisoner had regained his liberty from
the county jail at such an awful price,
AicGarvey, the rapist and murderer is
again within the clutches of the law
and must now face the worst charge
that can be brought against n crBn-
inal, that of cold blooded murder and
he may be called upon to die upon the
galIows in expiation of his terrible
crime.
William Mcdowell, of DeBeque, one
of the best known ranchmen and
stockmen of that section of the
county, captured McGarvey nt his
ranch on yesterday morning at an
early hour and several hours later
turned him over TO Under Sheriff Ed.
NJ. Hardy.
McGarvey is now confined in the
, county, Jail of Garfield county. in
Glenwood Springs. He will be brought
back to Grand Junction within few
days to stand trial in the October
, term of district court which opens
I in this city tomorrow.
Saturday afternoon late the sher-
IFS office was notified that two boys
had seen a man answering McGar-
veys description fishing in the Grand
river near the Steele ranch about six
miles east of Grand Junction. He had
acted very susHiciously. Sheriff
Struthers and number of deputies
went out and circumstances led them
to believe that McGarvey was in hid
ing on the ranch or in the adjoining
swamp. A call was made for armed
men and the account of the all night
man hunt given later on. Either Nc
Garvey has not been seen by the two
boys or he had escaped before the
swamp was surrounded.
Yesterday morning a man appear
ed at the ranch of William DeDowell
near DeBeque and asked for some
thing to eat Mr.. Mcdowell believed
that the man answered McGarvey's
description and in order to gain time
asked him to cut some wood, he then
sent for a neighbor. after 'phoning
to DeBeque for a full description of
McGarYey and a few minutes later
covered the man with a gun and plac-
ed him under arrest. Nc Garvey was
then marched to DeBeque, placed in
Jail and held until Under Sheriff
Hardy came to take him in charge.
In an interview with the Sentinel
this morning Mr.. Mcdowell told the
story of the capture as follows:

and then he said he wanted some
thing to eat. and wanted to know if
/ could give him some work for his
breakfast. So / told him he could
