SNAP CAUGHT.
Another On. OF the Express Robbers In tn
Tolls OF rhc OReers.

Another one OF the participants in the
United States express robbery has been
caught and and Is now waiting for the
arrival of an officer to bring him back to
| Wichita. This one is the individual known
as Doc Snap and a message from Ana
darko about noon yesterday stated that he
had bsen Captured there.
| Very few ople knew that Doc Snap
was one of the principals in the robbery
/ for it was not policy to let it be known
as he had skipped out and the detectives
OF the express company seemed to be al
together Indifferent about him for fear of
soaring him away beyond their reach. The
fact is Doc played a very prominent part
in the robbery. He was not only in the
original conspiracy and furnished good
deal of brains in contriving the plan OF
the robbery. but it is said that he was
actually present when the robbery took
place. The story Is that be was in hiding
behind a tree at the scene of the robbery.
as kind OF reserve guard, to help Kitter-
ell out should Jones, the driver of the
wagon, show fight.
For three days after the robbery he kept
close in his room, and did not venture out
doors except few times after dark. He
thought he was playing the thing fine, but
the eyes of the officers were continually
on him, nevertheless. Constable Tom
Noss occupied room nearly directly
across the street from him, and every
move he made, even in the privacy of his
room, was noted.
A night Or two before the arrest OF the
others he left his room, went across to the
billiard parlor and bought package
of cigarettes. He thought nobody
noticed him. but Constable Voss
had his eyes on him. The
constable noticed his nervousness and
accepted it as an Indication that he was
going to leave. Next morning he left and
proceeded to the depot very cautiously.
Constable Woes reported the matter to
Colonel Byrne, the company's detective,
and asked whether it was best to arrest
him. Colonel Byrne thought not, and
carelessly stated that he could get him at
the proper time. even though he left the
country. He gave it out to his more init
mate friends and co-cOnspirators that he
was going to Chicago, but a reliable man
was placed on his trail, and he saw him
take the Rock Island train south. From
that time his movements were watched
according to the almost infallible SYSTEM
of Colonel Byrne, and there is not q night
since but what the officer knew where he |
slept. His arrest at AnadArko yesterday
was only a matter of form.
Snap is given the title of "Doc''
because he worked in the Office
of medical firm in this city
a short time ago aud was STUDYING medi-
cine. He afterwards became night clerk
at the Occidental He is a pretty fair
looking fellow, and was somethat mixed
up in military matters here about the
time the local troops were ordered to hold |
themselves in readiness To go to Weir City |
when trouble was feared there. 1t is said |
that he had had his dividend of the swag |
declared and handed over to him before |
he left, and that kittrell hasn't the full |
