SAM WILSON CAUGHT
AFTER MUCH DODGINGD
Charged With a Murder at
Gonzales.
HE HAD A MOST EVIL DREAM.
How He Was Caught and the Trap
Set for Him,
The onicers Had Pretty Time of 1t
with sam, Who is an Artful
Dodger and a Master of
Elusive Arts.

In the city today is r. NJ. Glover,
sheriff Of Gonzales county, stopping while
here at the home Of his cousin, Fred a.
Beall.
Tie presence of Sheriff Glover in this
particular instance means that an alleged
desperate murderer, who has long been
fugitive from justice, It is claimed, is in
the tolls Of the law.
More than two years ago there was com
mitted in Gonzales county most dia-
bolical murder, in which sam and Reeves
Wilson were accused of having an i'm
portant part, sam being considered the
principal, and his brother, Reeves, an ac-
cessory.
Reeves Wilson was apprehended shortly
afterward, and has been a prisoner in
the Jail OF Gonzales county since his ar
rest.
Sam Wilson, realizing the desperate
condition in which his alleged act had
placed him made good his escape by
ways and means known on,y to one re-
! duced 10 terrible alternatives.
Despite the constant vigilance of the
officers, nothing was seen or heard Of
| sam for long time, and 1t began to

Raours Plan for ths southwestern.

II is quite evident from what Capt
Raoul says in respect to the resolutions
for the separation Of the Southwestern
from the Central that he has no hidden
purpose. His explanation Of the resolu-
tons which has been published several
times is frank, and evidently discloses
fully the object he has in view. He does
not want the Southwestern separated
from the Central, and does not intend it
shall be, unless separation becomes neces-
sary TO save the Southwestern from being
sacrificed. He has information of the
formation Of syndicate in New York to
get possession Of the Central and South
western at prices much below their real
value if these properties should be sold
under foreclosure of the mortgage, which
is the basis of the tripartite bonds.
If there should be a satisfactory reor-
ganizatiOn scheme proposed it would. of
course, put an end to the movement 10
sever the relations between the Central
and Southwestern. 1t is thought there
will be such reorganization scheme.
The earnings of the Central system dur
ing the last three months have been very
encouraging. If they should continue to
be favorable, it would not be a difficult
matter to effect a reorganization that
would save something to the junior
security holders of the Central
1t is not probable that the movement to
separate the Southwestern from the Cen
trail will be successful unless it becomes
apparent that there viii be no reorgani-
zation, and that the Central will be sold
II that condition of affairs should be
reached it is probable that there would
be no difference of opinion among the
Southwestern stockholders as to the
course they should pursue to protect their
interests, but unless it does arise it is
pretty safe to say that majority of the
stockholders will not give their consent
to the running of the Southwestern as an
independent road.
