4 MEN CHARGED
WITH THE DEATH
OF CANDELAR|A
Sheriff Rounds UP Men Al
legged to Have Taken
Part in Fight Near Atrls-
co on Sunday Night.

Charged with the murder of
Nestor Cardelaria at Arenal, near
Atrisco Saturday night. three
brothers, Melecio. Mariana and De-
metric Garcia. and their nephew,
Cruz Garcia, all living near Auisco,
were arrested by officials of the
sheriff's office last night,
Mystery still surrounds the death
of Nestor Candelaria., Information
received by the sheriff's office IN
dicates that the four Garcia men
on one side and the dead man. Mi
gdel Save IRA and Toedocio Sanchez
on the other side. engaged in u
fight Saturday night near a pool
room at Arenal.
Candelaria and his two friends
are said to have had the better OF
tho fight and put the Garcias 20
flight. Candelaria is reported to
corral. He was not seen again
until Sunday morning when he was
discovered unconscious in the cor
raj, his skull fractured from a
heavy blow on the head.
A number of theories have been
advanced as to the cause of the
wound which proved fatal. Among
them is that he received the wound,
probably caused by a heavy club
or brass knuckle during the fight
and crazed with pain, dashed into
the corral where he fell uncon-
scious. 1t is also believed by some
who have investigated the case that
he received the wound after he got
into the corral. The theory that
he wounded himself when he
jumped into the corral has also
been advanced.
1t is probable that the men will
waive preliminary hearing and be
bound over to the county grand
jury which convenes here Monday.
The arrests were made last night
by Sheriff Tony Ortiz. Under Sher-
iff Fred Fornoff and Deputy Sher-
iff Noise Gutierrez. Last night Of
ficials were still unable to learn
the cause of the fight.

NUDE BODY Of A
PHOENIX MAN IS
FOUND IN CANAL
Automobile Is Discovered
on the Bank and on the
Seat His Clothes Had
Been Neatly Arranged.
BY the Associated Press.

Phoenix, Ariz., Sept. 12.-The
nude body Of Guy Dernier, known in
Phoenix and throughout the state,
was found today floating in the
Arizona canal, near the Black can
yon road, about eight miles from
Phoenix. On the throat was found
deep abrasion and the chest was
bruised in a number Of places.
About half mile upstream from
where the body was discovered
Dernier's automobile was found
standing on the bank of the canal.
On the seat his clothes had been
neatly arranged.
The theory of foul play is scout
ed by the police, but according to
statements by physicians who ex-
amined Dernier's body, no water
was found in the lungs and his
death was not caused by drowning.
1t is possible, the physicians say,
that Dernier went to the canal to
bathe and that when he plunged
into the water the sudden chill
caused heart failure.
Dernier, former resident of
Phoenix, recently returned from
Los Angeles. where he had been
living for about year.

largely between Mr.. Perry and the
Bravo Construction company OF
Pittsburgh The latter finally
stopped at $749,000. Mr.. Perry's
representative then offered $780,
900.

sale he thought the successful bid
der expected to dispose of the ships
