A killing  occurred  at  the  3H  headquarters 
ranch  in  San  Simon  on  the  29th  ult.  Dick  Strat- 
ton and  Dud  Pruett,  two  employes  of  the  San 
Simon  Cattle  company,  were  plowing  in  a field, 
when  one  Burns  and  a man  named  Johns  open- 
ed fire  on  them  with  Winchesters.  Dick  Stratton 
was  shot,  whilst  Pruett  escaped  uninjured.  The 
wounded  man  was  taken  to  the  house  and  Dr. 
Simpson,  of  Lordsburg,  was  sent  for,  who 
dressed  the  wounds,  but  Stratton  never  rallied 
from  the  shock  and  died  two  days  later.  Both 
parties  were  arrested  and  had  an  examination 
before  Justice  White  at  Bowie,  and  were  com- 
mitted to  the  Tombstone  jail  to  await  the  action 
of  the  grand  jury.  The  affair  occurred  just 
across  the  line  in  Arizona.
