SSN ANToNIo, TEX, Jan 29.-About
ten days ago kilograms were sent from
Eagle Pass announcing that three rail-
way employees, among whom vas Jno. W j..
Howith, had gone over into Mexico on a
hunting expedition, and that lIowith had
become separated from the others and
was lost. His companions spent several
DAYS in searching for him and finally gave
him up thinking he had been deyoured
by coyotes or murdered, aud they
mourned him as lost. This morning
Capt. Lyons, who is warm friend of
Howith received telegram from the
latter, stating that after he got across the
Rio Grande into Mexico, aud away from
his companions, he was captured by
Mexican soldiers and placed in prison at
Pludras Negras, where he has been held
ever since on the charge of invading
Mexico with arms Capt. Lyons requested
the Mexican consul here, DR.. Ornelas, to
cndcavor to secure the release
of Howth ut once. Howith, who
Is well known in san Antonio,
where for II long time he was in the en-.
ploy OF the Sunse. route, is very quiet
sober and industrious man, and had no
idea that when hc went over into Mexico
to hunt that he was violating the law, ant
his invading Mexico single-handed is re
garded rs the hugest sort OF hoax by
those who know him.
