DESERT MURDER ARREST. London Nov. 14. The Basra correspondent of “Tho Times” says that the newspaper "Almosul” announces the dramatic capture after a six years’ search of Sheik Dhari Aldhashir, loader of tho Zowbaa tribe, in North Iraq, who was held responsible, with his son, for the murder of Colonel Leachman, British Political Officer in the desert in 1920. Dhari ordered a motor to take him to his son’s dwelling, but the driver took him to the Residence, where he was arrested. Ho was among the few tribesmen who were not covered by the 1920 amnesty.
