was  the  man  first  suspected  as  he  lost  a hat 
at  the  scene  of  the  robbery.  Subsequently  he 
confessed.  Two  of  his  confederates  have  been 
killed  by  officers  and  another  badly  wounded. 
Manuel  Robles,  who  is  probably  the  man  in- 
dicted with  Pilar  here  for  murder  at  Santa  Rita,

has  escaped  so  far  though  believed  to  be 
wounded.  Taylor  and  one  Mexican  have  been 
surrendered  to  Mexican  officers  and  taken  to 
Mexico  where  they  will  undoubtedly  be  quick- 
ly executed.

A Memphis  rite  lodge  of  Masons  has  re- 
cently been  organized  in  this  city.

Last  week  Dick  Hudson  sold  sixteen  choice 
beeves  to  Dave  Gaul  for  5 cents  per  pound 
dressed.

Peter  Spence  Shooting

The  Particulars  of  the  Killing  of  a MexicanLast  week  the  Enterprise  briefly  told  of  a 
killing  by  Pete  Spence,  of  this  county,  over  in 
Arizona.  The  Clifton  Clarion  gives  the  follow- 
ing particulars:  At  Henry  Longmore’s  saloon 
at  Morenci,  about  2 o’clock,  June  20th,  a shoot- 
ing affair  occurred  between  a Mexican  named 
Martinez  and  Pete  Spence,  in  which  the  former 
met  his  death  and  the  latter  was  wounded.  The 
following  account,  which  is  hastily  gathered 
from  Spence  and  other  Americans  present,  is, 
of  course,  only  one  side  of  the  question.
