The three Americans who escaped in the manner described were named William Carr, Joseph A. Anderson and Marcus L. Webster. The above statements were taken from deposi- tions made by them before the Alcalde of Los Angeles, which were forwarded to the governor in the manner aforesaid.

These Indians have since pursued two Americans, who are now at Los Angeles, after having succeeded in robbing them of everything they had. BACON $10,000 PER POUND
