EXCITING
MAN CHASE

Under Sheriff G. II. Wallis made
an important capture this morning
after an exciting man chase across
the country between here and Bo-
vino.
Wednesday morning one or two
men broke into a section house at
or near Dominguez, a point on the
Montrose line, and ransacked the be-
longings of number of Italian sec
ton hands The thieves made rich
haul A fine double-barreed shot
gun, diamond ring worth at least
$3.50, two gold watch chains, one
gold ring, several loaded cartridge
belts and many articles of clothing
were secured.
The Italians were not long in dis
covering that they had been robbed,
as the thieves had broken through
heavy door of the section house
and then broke open several lockers
to get at the goods. Two Italians
lost the bulk of the property.
Sheriff Gibbs of Delta was notified
at once. The Italians had pretty
good idea as to who the guilty man
ficers with descriptions of two men.
Sheriff Gibbs notified Sheriff c. F.
Schrader of this county, and the To-
cal officers have been on sharp
!
lookout.
The two Italians who.lost SO heav-
lily by the robbery walked to Grand
Junction, reaching here last night.
making the 81 miles on foot yester-
day.
This morning a man was coming
up Colorado avenue. between First
and Second strees. with companion.
The first man had double-barreled
shotgun across his shoulders. He
was at once recognized by the two
Italians who happened to be on the
street. and they also recognized the
gun as the one that had been stolen.
The Italians walked past the two
other men, and as they did SO one of
the Italians grabbed the shotgun
from the mans hand. The latter
and his companion took to their
heels. The gun was not loaded and
the Italians did not follow Officers
were notified. Chief of Police O'Neil
gave chase for some distance on foot
but the men had too much the start
of him. The men separated at a
point near the LaCourt hotel.
Under Sheriff Wallis was notified.

suit. He tracked one of the men
along cne Bovine road and finally

tain that he would overtake him. did
not fire at the man. but soon rode
him down, made him surrender,
strapped his hands and led him into
town. He is in jail. He has been
identified by the Italians. Sheriff
Gibbs will come down from Delta
for him tonight. He had none of
the stolen goods, but the shotgun
in his possession
The man who was with the fellow
captured by Wallis at the time the
Italian grabbed the gun came to the
sheriff's Office on his own accord and
stated that he had only met the 9TH
er fellow yesterday. While 1t is not
thought that he is implicated in the
robbery, he is being held on suspic-
ion.
The Italians are very anxious to
get their stolen property back.
1t seems that the diamond the
thief got was wrapped in cotton and
hidden in the toe of shoe which
was in one of the lockers in the sec
ton house. 1t is believed that the
thief attempted to put on the shoe,
found that there was some object in
1t, investigated and found the dia-
mond.
The alleged thief is sheepherder
and camp cook.
