CATTLE THIEF ARRESTED.
A Slinrmaii County Youth Sulls Stolen
Cuttle to a U'uht-o County
Citizen.
Sheriff Keljy left on the early train
this morning for Eugene to bring here a
voting man named F. W. Mathias, who
is charged with the larceny of six head
of cattle fiom Kate V. Miller, the com
plaining witness being James Miller, a
btother of the well-known Joaquin of
that ilk. The parties are all of Sher
man county.
Young MathiaB, some weeks ago, sold
fourteen head of cattle to J. L. Kelly of
this city, and delivered them at the
Kelly ranch out near the Deschutes.
Mr. Kelly afterwards learned that tit
least six head of the fourteen were
stolen, as they were claimed by James
Miller as the property of his wife. On
Millet's complaint a wariaut for the
arrest of young Mathias was issued out
of Justice Brownhill's court and placed
In the hands of Marshal T. II. Driver.
It was supposed Mathias had gone to
Lane county and Marshal Diiver com
municated with the slierilf of that
county and asked that Mathias lie
arrested. Meanwhiio the father of
Mathias ctine here and, admitting that
his son did not own a hoof of cattle in
the world, paid Mr. Kelly lor the entire
fourteen head and the costs of their
keep since their sale, and took them
back to Sherman county,
A strong effort was made to have, the
Indictment against young Mathia"
ijushed hut the district attorney, on
matiirer reflection, concluded that this
was no case for clemency and had a new
warrant of arrest issued last evening and
placed in the hands of Sherilf Kelly,
who will doubtless have his man here
before tomorrow is vety old.
It should he said that the sherilf of
Lane county arrested young Mathias
and prompth communicated with Slier
ill' Kelly, who answered back asking
that the prisoner be held until Mr.
Kelly could learn the status of the case
here, anil on learning that a new war
rant was about to be irsued and placed
in Mr. Kelly's hands, he asked the sher
iff of Lane to hold the prisoner till his
arrival.
There is absolutely no question of
Mathiab' guilt, and Sherman county
parties who know him mid know his
reputation say he is uiuiply a iiutural
born thief,
