LURED TO THEIR DOOM IN DEATH VALLEY

Today Millin was brought into Rhyolite in a half demented condition with just enough sense to tell how Titus and Weller wandered over the desert one at a time in search of water, and in fifteen days did not return.
They are undoubtedly dead. Two horses and nineteen burros belonging to the men also died of thirst.
