Mr.. and Mrs. w. C. Black returned
to Fallon Monday from an extended trip
through California and Oregon. They
went as far south AZ San Diego and as
far north as Portland. On leaving Ore.
gon they left Sidney with his grand

Black says that over 300,0 900 people trav-
eled between Los Angeles and the sea-

Warrant Issued and Case VIII
Come to Trial Next
Monday

Sunday warrant was issued at the
instance OF B. II. Erb for the arrest OF
Matt Johnston, a rancher living about
mile south of town, charging the latter
with assault wirh deadly weapon.
The warrant was served on Monday
morning by Deputy Sheriff Balm, and
Johnston appeared before Judge E. w.
Black. He furnished bail in the sum OF
$500, and the case was set for next
Monday morning at 10 o'clock.
According to Erb's story, he hired W.
II. Austin to go with him Sunday morn
ing to Mr.. Johnston's ranch after load
of cement blocks. Arriving there Erb
entered the premises and was met BY
Johnston, who ordered him out, at the
same time raising the hammer on shot.
gun that he held. Erb grabbed the gun
and in the tussle for possession both
men went down in the sand, Erb on top.
At this point Johnston began calling
loudly for Austin to pull Erb of, which
he did, and as he did 80 Johnston fred
shot at Erb from revolver which he
pulled from his pocket. Erb says h6
knew that Johnston was trying TO get
the revolver out Of his pocket and he
was making every effort to prevent him
doing sc. The revolver WAS aimed At
Erb's stomach, and just as Johnston
pulled the trigger Erb showed the wesp.
on down with his hand and the bullet
passed between his legs.
This is only one side OF the story, but
is substantated in every particular BY
Mr.. Austin.
From all accounts, Erb and Johnston
have never been able to agree as part
ners in the cement block business, and
have quarreled on numerous occasions.

RETURNS; NO PRISONER
But Secures Clue to Identity of
Safe Crackers

Sheriff Shirley returned Monday from
Reno. where he had gone in search OF
the men who entered the Nevada Dis
tillers and Brewers Co.'S office and
Dan Callahan's saloon last Tuesday
night and made away with the contents
Of the safe at the former place and safe
and all at tie latter. In both instances
valuable papers were taken, which can
be of no use save To the owners, who
would like to have them in their
ossession again.
When the sheriff started for Hazen,
taking along Fred Waidely and NJ.
Cameron, he had not the slightest clew
to work on, but on reaching Hazen
young Carroll informed him that he
had received word from his father, J.
W Carroll, who is serving five years, in
the States prison for nanslaughter. TO
be on the lookout for one Joe Sullivan,
who had just been released from the
penitentiary, and was on his way to
Hazen. Young Carroll said that Sulli-
van had showed up in Hazen Tuesda,
morning. about o'clock, and asked for
a revolver that he had left in Carroll's
saloon prior tn being sent up. He was
told that he could have it on putting up
the amount he had received on it. He
left shortly afterwards, saying he was
going to Rawhide.
At the Palace lodging house in Hazen
Shirley learned that Sullivan had en-.
gagged room these about 3 O'Clock
Wednesday morning, leaving orders to
be called at 4 o'clock in the afternoon
On the way upstairs he gave the man
in charge So for the room and asked
him II he had some small gold for t2b
or $50 worth OF silver. This the clerk
did not have. The clerk says Sullivan
appeared to he excited and nervous.
When the time came to call him he
was not in the room.
With this information, coupled with
the fact that Shirley had seen Sui
livan in the Palace saloon in Fallon
about 10 o'clock Tuesday night, he was
satisfied that he now had the right
man. He figured that the job had
been done between II O'Clock Tuesda,
night aud o'clock Wednesday morn
ing, and that Sullivan had then stolen
the landcar and arrived in Hazen at 3.
As Reno Shirley found man who
knew Sullivan and had seen him Oh
Wednesday down by the river in that
city washing his face Two revolvers
were beside him on the ground. Tie
acquaintance says that he asked Sulli-
van where lie had been, and tie latter
re, lied. On, around the country"
From the penitentiary officials Mr..
Shirley obtained photograph of sulli-
van and had many copies printed,
which have been sent to peace officers
all over the coast, and which the STAN
DARp reproduces in this issue.
No further trace of sullivan could be
obtained in Reno, and before starting
for home the Sheriff says he was in
formed by one who knew the man that
he had crossed the mountains into Cal
ifornia. Two men were implicated in
the job, and Shirley is satisfied that he
knows who the other one is He has
not given up the chase by any means
and expects to land the guilty parties
