CAUGHT At LAST,
A Gang of Southwestern Train Robbsr
spotted and Brok en- Up.


MEMrHrs. Tenn, January GA daring
| gang of train robbers who have been op-
Grating in this part Of the country for a
long time, have been run 10 earth. For
| several years past passenger trains in Te xas
| Missouri. Colorado and elsewhere have
been held up by bands of masked men,
| who robbed passengers, express companies
mails, etc, and in many instances killed
or wounded persons who were brave
enough 10 defend property in their possess
| sion. The railroad. State and express
| authorities offered large rewards for the
capture OF the daring highwaymen but
! without effect. Early in December last
train on the St Louis 4 Arkansas
| railroad near Genoa, Arkansas was
| signalled by red lights and as the engineer
| brought II To stop he was Immediately
confronted by revolvcrs in the hands Of
masked men, who compelled him 10 accom-
pany them TO the express car, which was
forced open and s;son despoiled Of its most
| valuable contents, t\spitc the resistance Of
the messenger in charge. The robbers fled
10 the woods and soon after were pursued
and overtakcn by the sheriff and posse, but
after running fight in which many revol-
vers were emptied. the thieves escaped.
As this was the first successful attempt
IN many years 10 depredate upon the South
ern Express Company, its officials, with the
cooperation of President Fordyce, Of the
railroad company, Immediately placed the
matter in the hands of Pinkerton Dagency,
with direCtiops 10 use every means TO cap
ture the gang. Detectives were sent TO the
scene. where was found a "slicker' oilcloth
coat. This garment was made in St LouiA
and Investigation there elected the names
of storekcepers in Arkansas and Texas who
were purchasers of such goods Each of
the latter were visited in turn without re-
suits until a dealer in Waco, Texas not
only recognized the coat but accurately
described the man 10 whom it had been
sold
This clew, coupled with other circum-
stances, led 10 the arrest in the interior of
Texas of a man named Brock, who was
brought to Texarkana and there fully iden-
titled by the engineer Of the held up
train as the man who held revolver to his
head while going to the express car. As
denial was useless. Pinkerton's men then
induced Brock 10 admit not only his parti-
cipation in the affair, but also TO reveal
some much needed information As re-
suit two men were arrested on Sunday last
by the Chief of Police Of Montgomery. Ala
One escaped. The other is James Burrows
Reuben Burrows. who escaped, did so BY
killing his pursuer. He Is now hiding in .
swamp.
II now transpircs that the prisoner, Jas.
Burrows. has been the organizer as well -
leader in all the train rohberies which have
occurred for the past several years. James
Burrows heavily ironed arrived here this
morning from Montgomery and left BY
connecting train for TeIarkana in the Gus
