passing through the arm but not breaking the bone. Sheriff Olney and posse of Graham county went to the scene as soon as the news reached town, but could not trail the men farther than the road, where the tracks indi- cated that they had gone in the direction of Layton. After the first shot Jorques grappled with his assailants and tore a blanket from one of them. Next day their masks were found and with the blanket turned over to Sheriff Olney. Gilmo was at once suspected by the Sheriff, he having disappeared from town the day before. He commenced inquiries among the Mexicans about the blanket and after a while located its owner and afterwards secured evidence that Gilmo and a Mexican had made their masks and prepared for the robbery, at a Mexican’s house. Since then Mr. Olney has been laying low and making quiet inquiries in every direction for Gilmo, who was well known here, at Dun- can and Clifton. A few days ago he received word that Gilmo was at Phoenix and he at once telegraphed Sheriff Montgomery to make ar- rest. On Tuesday he received word that Gilmo was in jail at Phoenix and that the Mexican who had accompanied him to Phoenix was in the vicinity and would also be probably ar- rested.
