Seventeen Horse Thieves Killed by Western Farmers. { Paladora, Public Land Strip, L. T., Sept. 1.—For some time past quite, a number of horses and cattle had | mysteriously disappeared from this | and other neighborhood in the strip, being taken from the pastures and picket lines of the settlers and herds- men. i Suspicion pointed to a band of campers in the brakes of Deer creek, | who were there ostensibly for the purpose of catching wild horses, and a strict watch was kept over their camp. The night following their discov- ery the camp was surrounded by 40 well armed and mounted vigilants, who sent in a committee ofsix to de- mand the surrender of the outlaws 4 and submission to an investigation. The reply of the desperadoes was a volley, which wounded one man and two horses. This was the signal for the attack and from projecting peak around the ravine where the camp was located, as fast asthe Winches- ters could be worked, volleys were poured upon the wretched outlaws without mercy. When they discov- ered they were surrounded and re- treat cut off they fought with des- peration, but no living thing could long exist in such a fire and no quar- ter given. each In twelve minutes the firing ceased and seventeen lawless men lay bleed- ing corpses or writhing in the ago- nies of death. The yigilants had three men killed and ten wounded. Two horses were killed and seven wounded and six- teen horses were retaken and return- ed to their owners. Several others near the camp were killed and wound- | ed. The settlers think that at least one gang of outlaws has been subdued.
