AS the police of Ell Paso seem help
less in all murder cases tn, relatives
of VIM. A. Hackley, who was found
on the streets Of FL Paso in a dying
condition on the night Of September
"a, have offered a reward Of $500 for
the arrest and conviction Of the muir
derer or murderers. This crime, be-
ing n Of a number of mysterious
murders to occur in the Pass City,
has started the report that a crimi-
nal syndicate is working out Of there
and is doing a big business. In the
case Of Tom Lyons, the Grant county
cattleman found murdered in FL Paso
the one hope Of the prosecution now
seems to be the conviction Of Felix
Jones, and those close to the case have
little or no hope of getting the men
higher up.
