 I|nT0Wh MAN
Deputy Sheriff White Believes | "RustIer" is Man Who Slew
 Rival at Dance In Mexican
 Colony

With their faces red from the burp- ing sun and their lips decked with
 blisters rom heat and thirst. Deputy 1 Sheriff Vii. White, of this city,
 Spec.al Deputy Dick Johnson and
 Constable Bailey of Lowell. the re-
 maining squad of the gallant band of
 officers who set out last Thursday
 morning in quest for two horse
 thieves who stole a pair of horses
 from the Warren ranch. six miles
 south of Bisbee earlier in the day, arrived home at 6 o'clock yesterday
 morning. They were so tired that
 they were almost helpless when they
 dismcunted, yet they found solace in
 the fact that their hunt was che of the greatest successes in criminal an-
 nals in this section of the territory. Thusday night. the first night out.
 the posse was in canyon on the
 Mexican side when darkness fel. Not house could be seen and there was nothing to do but to mount one of the mountains and try to sleep on a bed of jagged stone. None of the men had had a bite to eat since the night before. To add to the suffering from bangs Of hunger was the fact that there vas no water on hand. Half starved and half parched the squad spent a most miserable night trying to catch a wink of sleep on their hard beds. In the morning a damp spot in the ground was noticed .n the canyon and a water hole was dug. A pool of muddy fluid that be- came luke-warm as soon as it came in contact with the sand soon pre- sented itself
 1t was ugly locking stuff" says Deputy White. but oh my, it cer- tainly did taste good We drank the hole dry and then started on our search. Getting farther into Mexico we experienced less difficulty in get ting food or drink. but God knows how we had already suffered"
 After ieav.ng Osborne" continued Deputy White, the leader of the squad, the tra,l led south of Doug las and across the border. We en- countered a country that was more dry than any ocean scene that was ever aced on canvas and tougher than the Rocky mountains. However, we never lost the trail and followed it with the accuracy of a pack of prize blood hounds. The trail led along the Rio Terras river for miles and then cut abruptly across a mount came to the conclusion that the thieves were headed for IT Tigre. In this assumption We were correct as one of the prisoners tod us after we had tagen them in charge. We telephoned to the surrounding, towns and furnished the officers with de- scriptions that had been previously furnished us by persons who had seen the fugitiyes. About o'clock Saturday morning the officers at the town of Fl Tigre took the men into custody They caught them just about an hour before We arrived.
 Our men were so tired out and the horses so fatigued that the first thing we did after the prisoners had been lodged behines the bars was 70 go to sleep. We had been in the saddle from about o'clock Thursday morning with the exception Of few hours sleep we snatched on Thursday and Friday nights along the mountain side. You can imagine, of course, that we were greatly refreshed after we had remained on a bed of rocKs for few hours.
 We were treated royalty at the Chachacu ranch. which consists of 100000 acres and which Is owned by a Spaniard It is located near the town of Fl Tigre and is one of The most beautiful ranches I have ever seen. We were taken in and cared for by the owner as if we were mem- bers of his family l tel, you it was like being shipwrecked on ioneiy island for several years and then suddenly finding yourself at home. Tie Mexican officers were also very courteous and gave US all the assist ance they could command. l cannot pay them too high compliment
 We left Cananea at o'clock Monday afternoon and while return ing home We saw the red glare of the fire at Naco. Johnson said 1t was from the smeiters at Dousi as and swore 1t was a fire at D;sbee. How ever. we soon saw that the flames were in the vicinity of Naco. but we did not journey to that town Disbee looked too good.
 Altogether We had a chase of 10e miles in the worst country ever was in. We were in the saddle eff and on more than i5 hours. u was aa experience that noEe 3f us will ever forget
 Deputy White declares he is al- most certain that one of the prs son CTS is ncne other than Ignacio Ger jaIda. the Mexican. who slew Fer aida Castillo another Mexican on the cve of his webbing at dance at Tintown on the night Of September |12.
 He gave us his name as Miguel Cayez- says White but when he IVES taken into court at Frontcras he said lis name was Iy,acio t;er:a.d1 do not know the murderer but from descriptions I have been furnished
