cided that if the contractor who has been
figuring on the work could furnish a
sufficient bond. the subscription COM
mittee would then set to work to guar

amount of cash. The contractor is now
in San Francisco. and is satisfied that
he can take care of his part of the rel-
quirement, and the promoters are equal
ly confident that the necessary amount
OF cash can be secured without any
trouble. The outlook for an early start
to work on this enterprise is therefore
very encouraging.

Diego Electric company, which is owned

Robert L. Reagin, one OF the robbers
)f the postofice at Sac and Fox
Agency, was brought in from that
point by deputy marshals yesterday.
1t seems that the robbery was
planned last May by a man named
Spurgeon who gave one Of the robbers
named L,vs SEQ bill to take to the
jfii e AMI &, changed in order to find
out where the cash was kept. The
purpose OF the robbery originally was
70 raj money TO put up a bond for a
pal who was in jai! at Muskogee
Cum berledge, the man who was in
jail, managed to get his bond and
secure his liberty before the robbery
was committed, but the robbers
thought it a shame to let little thing
like that upset all their calculations,
so ahead they went and committed the
robbery anyway. But small sum
was realized from the robbery, about
SOS. and when the dividing-up time
came Spurgeon allowed the others to
keep it all, saying that they could pay
his share to him after they had as
sisted him in robbing a train. This
would seem TO indicate that, although
amateurs, the organization was on
mischief bent and but for their prompt
detection and incarceration would
have caused considerable trouble.
