Special Dispatch to the EVENING LIGHT.
Laredo, January 23.-Last night between
seven and eight o'clock, Dionyicio Garcia,
employed as mail messenger in our postofiice,
was arrested for mail robbery, and this morn
ing Fernando Garcia, an employee in the La
redo Times office, was arrested as an accom-
plice. The robbery has been going on for the
past two months, but it is impossible to detect
the guilty party. A clue was first obtained
last Friday, when the postmaster missed sew
era1 letters which he had in his hands only a
few moments before, and no one else but Gar
cia and the postmaster being in the Office
during this time, suspicion was aroused and a
Trap set for the rogue, which resulted in his
capture as above stated. At least eight hun
dred letters have been stolen since the first of
December. Dionycio was taken to
San Antonio this morning and Fernando will
follow by next train. Both parties belong to
highly respectable families.
