A Det1ctl7e's Story.
Cincinnati Times STAR
Our readers were no doubt nearly all ap-
priced of the robbery of a u. p. train last
summer and the capture of the band by our
Mr.. Steve Mead: how, after the first robbery
had been committed, Mr.. Mead joined the
robbinR band and effected the capture and
subsequent Imprisonment of that desperate
crowd. Mr.. Mead yesterday regaled us
with ali account Of the leader of the band,
who was captured short time ago. Tie
story is "a follows:
After having jugged the gang, I was call
ed east, and had to forego for the time the
pleasure Of handing their leader over to
| justice. Iknew that he had fed to Califor-
| MIA, and there I was forced to leave him.
Not long ago, however, while working up
] another case in San Francisco, I received y
note one day at my hotel, in which the
writer requested n.o to call at certain place
! and time nnd hear Of something to my ad
vantage. l never pay attention to anony-
nous notes, hut something impelled me to

place mentioned, aud found both time aud
place anything but assuring. The house
was rookey in the Chinese quarter. I was

at the same time polite aud suspiciousiy
mysterious. I observed mine host very
carefully, and tho furtive glances he shot at
me made me wish that had remained at
my hotel. I never before OK since was
looked upon by eyes such AZ he seemed to
piercs through INC with. They actually
Rlittered in his heal with mocki0g, GU, l.
ting glance that made me upcomfortably
nervous. He addressed me by name,
treated me- kindly and politely, but would
answer no questions. His manner i'm
pressed me as being unusually strange, and
| watched his every movement. 1t was
we'll for me that did 80, for suddenly,
while in the midst Of courteous speech,
he leaped upon me in my chair. and hurled
me backward to the floor, with his knees
upon my breast and his hands tightly
clutched about my throat with an embrace
like an iron wise. 1t was the most desper-
ate struggle ever had, aud had had sew

almost superhuman effort. 1t was long
and tight struggle for the mastery. My

The nippers were soon ON him. In the
struggle, the whiskers, which were false,
were pulled from his face, revealing the
we'll known mug Of the leader Of the train
robbers.
" Had the struggle lasted much longer
