An Officer COnceaIs Criminal in the
 Mountains.
 CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Oct 19-A detec- tive named Thomas Zowalt, of Indianapolis, arrested man named Hugh Austin ten miles from this city yesterday afternoon. He purchased tickets to Cincinnati last night, but before the train left boarded the Nash vile express. At Bridgeport he suddenly left the train and took his prisoner into mountain gorge, having handcuffed and shaekled him. The detective then returned to this city. He says the man embedded large sum of money and committed terrible murder to conceal his crime in an Indiana village in December, 1875. He refused to divulge the place and the persons concerned. The detective has been on Austin's track for months, since the latter returned from Cali fornia. Austin worked in blaming mill in Atlanta until recently under an alias, when he left and was captured Zowalt refuses to tell what he has done with his prisoner. There is no jail within twenty-five miles of where he was concealed. There is much in terest felt over the strange actions of the de- tectiye, and officers will Investigate the case.
