THE MURDERER OF OFFICER pRINrz
What the ST. Louis Police Think About the
Arrest Made

City Marshal Arnold received telegram
yesterday from the chief of police of ST.
Louis acknowledging the receipt of the
photograph OF Mike Clark, who was ar.
rested here few days since on the suspi.
cion of his being Charlie Sanders, who muir
dered Police Officer Prin,z, of the metro
politan police of that city, in 1879.
Marshal Arnold had become tired of the
Hardness OF the chief of police of St Louis
III answering, and released Clark, or who
ever he may be, Monday morning, who
lett the city at once. He certainly bore a
strong resemblance to the picture sent out
OF Sanders, and acknowledged himself that
he mad been arrested on the streets of st.
LOUIS having been taken for the murderer
of the officer.
Inc ~. Louis Republican, referriag to the
matter has the following;
The st Louis policewill not be convinced
that the real Saunders is caught until he is
identified positively by men who knew him
before the murder, as they have been de.
ceived several times by the arrest of persons
bearing real or iancied resemblance
to the murderer. After the murder A
reward OF 500 was offered for
Saunders, and n description of him
with his picture accompanying il was sent
all over the country. The picture was
small photograph, probably taken from a
gem, giving view of his face, and it is
on one OF these which the Dallas police rely
to identify him. AS Saunders was the ty
pical thug, his photograph bears close re-
semDlance to at least one young man in
every ten of that class. The consequence
has been numerous arrests made on the
photographs. Soon after the murder he
was said to be mt work in Il blacksmith shop
on the Cairo Short Line again he was in
New. Orleans; again in Texas; then in New
Mexico, In August 1879, the police
thought that they had captured him on
the steamer John b. Maude, but it turned
out TO be one John Ball. Some one else
was caught in Colorado and st. Louis
officer sent after him; another officer later
on was sent to Texas, but they never came
pack with Saunders. lie has been arrested
IN st, Louis and released dozen times
The circumstances of the murder have thus
been kept before the people, and the ST.
Louis police feel that they will never
be able to hold up their heads AS thew
should until he is really captured. The
murder occurred on the evening of June /
1879, in front of sos Marion street, the resi-.
dence, OF Mrs. Martin, Saunders sister.

house, and was standing in front of it when

Griffin got her into the woods near the
