Peivo county during tho IumI
veur ut $13,1100, The information
became public through the dis
closure or the fact that In effort
to determine the identity of the
thieves a restaurant hud been open
ed at Winchester for use us n
"blind," the restaurant having
been conducted for several weeks
by operatives of the Burns Inter
national Selective agency.
Ii appears that Sheriff Code has
been endeavoring for months to ob
tain some clue that would lead to
the arrest of lha cuttle thieves, but
Their operations seemed so , well
planned no headway could be
made. Live stock owners then
consulted with the county authori

was udopted of hiring the detective'
