Trial OF Ike Cox. John Graves and
Jesse Cannon Closes at Durango;
Case Was Hard Fought.
Aztec, N NJ, March 27.-TeStimony
in the famous COX-Truby trial is all
in and the arguments OF attorneys
and court instructions 70 the jury are
all that remain before the - jurors

lie opinion inclines to the belief that
either a disagreement or acquittal viii
Ike Cox, the chief defendant, was
placed on the stand in his own behalf
and told wildly OF the many perse-
cutions that he and other sheep men
had borne at the hands Of the Tru-
bys. On the day of the killing CT
sam TRULY, the defendant. together
with John Graves and Jesse Carmen,
had met Dave and Sam TRULY, Paul
Rowe and John McCOliom in the Cot
tonWOOd canyon. All parties were
armed, and although no shooting was
done at this time, yet rifles were
drawn The Cox party, so they claim,
then made detour TO avoid the Tru-
bys and in doing so took to the top
Of the high ridges OF that section Of
country in order that they might not
be ambushed- While riding along
ridge to reach home, sam TRULY and
McCoIlom suddenly rode into view.
TRULY at once raised his rifle. says
Cox, but before he could shoot, Cox
had raised his own gun and fred
twice TRULY fell from his horse, Ne
Colon raced his horse for a elumP
Of trees, but Graves shot and hit him
before he could reach safety Both
McConom and TRULY carried guns.
Fearing the other members OF the
TRULY party might be in hiding, Cox,
Graves and Cannon hurried away and
rode home.
