MEXICAN CHIEF OF POLICE SENT
TO PRISON FOR CARE

Public Opinion is Greatly Wrought Up
Over the Affair OF Thursday and
the Participants VIII be Tried in
the Courts for the Murder OF Their
Unarmed Victim.

City OF Mexico, Sep. l9.-EduardC
"a. assistant chief Of detectives. and
Commandant Mauro Sanchez, were ar,
rested last night and taken TO prison and
placed in solitary confinement by order
OF the fifth criminal judge. 70 whom had
also been turned over 81 prisoners ar,
rested Cor entering the municipal build
ing on the night OF the recent lynching
Public opinion is behind the government,
and the investigation will be pushed
rapidly. The officials arrested were &C
companied to the prison by the new
chief of police, who takes charge OF his
department in stirring times.
TIE Deums in thanksgiving for the es,
CAPE of President Diaz were sung in all
Catholic churches and cathedrals OF the
city today by order OF Archbishop Ar
lacon.
The government, by its course, has
MOI prejuriced the case. but has taken
precautions demanded by popular sen.
timent. which. fed by rumors. has be-
come excessively irritated. for the pub
lie fail to understand how a prisoner OF
so great importance should be left in
charge of unarmed officials. High Off
cials with the federal government have
ing and it is reported that at the regu,
lar cabinet meeting on Friday severa!
ministers urged that the conduct OF the
police be thoroughly investigated. \
communication was accordingly sent to
Gov. Rebollar OF the federal district .of
transmission to the inspector general,
in which the latter was informed that
he u give up his office Immediately.
He is censured for not having taken
proper precautions in guarding the
prisoner. The arrests then followed.
The general maintains entire calmness
of demeanor. He is a rmarkably able
man, who has risen in the force by his
talents and efficiency, and his dismissal
from the police department is a tremen-
uouS dow 10 MIN and TO his friends. II
the police authorities are proven rim
inally negligent in guarding the pris-
oner, they will undoubtedly be severely
punished and whoever took part in the
killing OF the prisoner Will be held for
murder. even If they were merely pas
sively acting spectators of the crime.
Popular rumors. ascribing a part in this
affair to the members OF the police force.
are based on mere suspicion and il is
deemed unjust pending judicial inquiry
to maintain this view. There was gross
carelessness without doubt. More than
that is far from demonstrated. But the
government is determined to show the
world that lynching has not been nat
uraliZed here.
