RUSTLERS, ARE
FOUND GUILTY
ONE OF ALLEGED GANG CHARG.
ED WITH WHOLESALE THEFT
is CONVICTED AT FAIR
FAX.

Fairfax, S. D.--The county author
tiles of Gregory county scored a COM
viction in the trial of the first of the
defendants in wholesale cattle steal
ing cases which a ninth or two ago
aorused the ~hoesteaders and ranchers
to a high state of excitement.
The jury in the ease of Cyrus De-
laney, one of the alleged members
of the cattle "rustlers" band returned
a verdict of guilty. Similar verdicts
are looked for in the cases OF other
alleged members Of the hand whose
trials were set to follw that f De-
laney. Important evidence in the cas-
against Delaney was offered by Hill
liam Smith. a self-confessed member
of the band, who is serving a term
in the Sioux Falls ~penitentiary for
his part in the wholesale resting. He
was taken from Sioux Falls to testify
in the Gregory county circuit court
under guard.
Delaney, Smith and other members
OF the band, were arrested following
the disappearance of twenty-seven
head of cattle from the ranch OF
August Lenzer, near Dixon. The stol-
ell cattle were shipped to Sioux City
and were traced there by the officers
and the arrest of the alleged mem
bers of the band followed. Delaney
denied that he had anything to do
with the wholesale theft of cattle.
but the evidence of Smith, self-con-
fessed confederate in the theft of the
cattle, and of others, including brand
inspectors from Sioux City, was deem
ed conclusive by the jury which re-
turned a verdict Of guilty in the case.
In addition to Delaney there are
four other defendants on the same
charge, and in addition Fred Nune-
lmaker, a Gregory county homestead-
er is to be tried on the charge of re-
!ceiving stolen property, it being alleg-
ed that the stolen cattle were kept
at his place during the time inter-
vening their theft and shipment to
Sioux City.
These are the most important ct
tie 'rustling" cases to be tried
