ORGANIZED BAND OF THIEVES.
Gang Operating Near crsston Makes
Away With Cattle Herds.

Special to Times-Republican.
Creston. Nov. 12.-The existence OF
an organized band of cattle thieves,
such as operated in this section at an
early day, Is suspected by the state
and county authorities who have been
trying to locate the men who stole
cattle worth nearly $4,000 from the
pasture of r. L. McGinnis near here
last week. Reports of Mr.. McGinnis
loss started other farmers to making
count of their cattle and two OF
them have already found that some
OF their herds are missing. c. a.
Apologize and Mike Still find that
thieves have raided their pastures and
several hundred dollars worth Of cattle
taken. 1t has been learned that the
cattle thieves take down the fences,
drive out their loot and then replace
the fence. and unless close and frequent
count is kept on their herds it is an
easy matter for some to be taken and
the loss remain undiscovered for days.
