MAGILL WRITES
OF HIS FLIGHT
Manhattan Man in New York
Gets Letter From Him

The following article appeared in the
State journal Of the 10th inst:
Joe Magill, one of the best known
young men of Nevada, formerly a lead
ing broker of Tonopah and later locat-
cd at the Waldorf Astoria, New York,
is now in Honduras and there is a mys-
terry associated with his disappearance,
as there is to the departure Of many
another to the unextraditable coun-
try. The Tonopah papers have been
full of the story of Magill's absence
from his apartments in New York.
His friends have been worried about
his strange silence and business assoc
iates have had an uncomfortable feel
ing that Magill's absence BODIED no
good. Finally q letter was received by
a well known Manhattan Spectator in
New York as follows: GN nl
Dear Lou-You viii be surprised to
hear from me under date of New Or
leans. Enclosed please find the $52 l
borrowed of you. am going to Hon
duras this morning on the 10 O'Clock
steamer. Yours, JOE"
Only n explanation has been forth
coming and that from Tex .Rickard,
from whom Magill borrowed ST. OBS.
1t is said that the money went over the
green tables of a fashionable New
York gambling place. MagiIl gave
Richard, it is claimed, 1900 shares of
Bullfrog Eclipse as security. Next day
Magill tried to sell the stock in New
York. He reported failure and said
the New York buyers were trying to
Skin" him and that he could get a
better price in Philadelphia. He took
the stock and that islthe last seer Of
Magill, or heard either, until his New
York friend got the letter referredsto
from New Orleans.
Friends in Reno and in New York
refuse to believe that Magill went to
Honduras for a 81, 900 debt. They de-
clare he could have borrowed that sum
easily as his standing was high, and
apparently he was making money in
the stock business in New York. Why
he should go to Honduras for only
s l 1000 is a mystery. Some hint that
development will show larger discrep-
encies in Magill's accounts, while
others declare that therelis a woman in
the case.
Magill was a very popularImember of
Reno society, and formerly worked in
the Southern Pacific engineers Office
under A. J.. Barclay. Then he went
to Tonopah and p%rospered until he was
n of the leading ~brokers!in the south
ern camp and in everyone s.conidence.
Later he went to New York and again
is said to have prospered. HeHopened
Offices in the Waldorf Astoria, where
his books and accounts still await him.
The officials declare they do not know
his whereabouts.

Regarding the above article, C. E.
Roberts, who has had charge at Ma
gill's Office in the Tonopah block since
his absence, when questioned by a Bon
ANA representative last Wednesday,
said he did not believe there was any
thing in the report for If there had
been he (Roberts) would surely have
known something about it.
He further said: "When Magill left
it vas his intention to remain about
three months, but becoming involved
in business in New York he decided to
prolong his stay till fall and wrote me
to that effect. | had been receiving
letters from him at intervals of about
three weeks and in none of them did he
intimate that anything had wrong.
He had been travelling about consider
able and whenever | failed to get a let
ter within the time above specified |
usually learned later that he had been
away from New York. The last letter
received from him was about three
weeks ago, written from Cincinnati,
Ohio, in which he said he would return
to New York in about three weeks
