termaths, especially one as serious as
that that ocourre in Juarez last Sun
day morning. The case is one that does
not belong to passing day events. 1t is
one that attracts attention throughout
the whole western country and Mex
leo. 1t is nos one case of one killed
and one wounded; it is a case of three
killed. two mortally wounded and four
in jsil for being in some way connected
with the. crime.
The HERALD erred yesterday in
stating that Agapito Gallardo, the
sergeant Of police, was dead, and it
also erred in stating that AbelinO We
larde wasdying. Agapito Gallardo is
not dead, but lies paraiyzed in bed, un-
able to speak or eat, bis wounds are
fat al and only the mans vital ty holds
soul and body together. Abelino We
larde is not 80 badly wounded, and he
will be MANNED for life as it will be
necessary to amputate his right arm as
the bone is badly shattered aud DR..
Samaniego is only waiting to see what
possible chance there is for his life be-
fore performing the ceremony.
The Juarez auth critics are not salts
fed to sit idly by and let matters take
their natural course. They are not
willing that their city shall again be
morning. They are active and vigil
ant; they have spotted all Suspicious
characters who rendezvous in their
city ard they intend to remove the
cause of all trouble, strife and tur-
moul. They intend running out the
bunco men, and closiag up such dives
as now exist where such bloody deeds
have their origin. They began this
work Sunday and are constantly on the
CpnHou thew arraafad
Chinese Jack, alias Opium Jack, alias
Jack Hall, who ran the house where
the trouble originated last Sunday
morning. They did not only arrest
Jack, but they also arrested
his American mistress, another Ameri-
can man and Lily Rhine. These four
rendezvoused at Opium Jacks dive In
Juarez. The Mexican authorities say
they play cd . bunco game aod caught
many suckers in their net.
Yesterday the Mexican authorities
searched their premises and found one
room used as an opium dive and be-
hind the bar they found q large num-
Der OF poisonous pills thst were used
for "knock out drops" They would
cat, a sucker and the women would
play the masher game: If the sucker
bad money the ma n would be the
harder. A pill would he dropped in
his drink, he would feel sick and soon
drop of to sleep. When he awoke he
would find himself in the street, with
out money and his dear charmers
would have disappeared. A man find
ing himself in this condition would be
too ashamed TO either tell the police or
his friends of the occurrences and the
matter would pass by without the
public being the wiser. 1t will never
be known how many people have been

more Of 1t soon in Juarez.
THE is not |. The authorities are
determined to rid the town OF the
renegade Americans who have made
their headquarters in Juarez for the
past several years. Men who cannot
retur to this side in daylight, but can
| remain in Juarez and are informed by
pals on this side when any crooked

needed: These have all been spotted
and will b. run in for the slightest
move that is suspicious on their part.
The officers yesterday also developed
| a plot much more sensational than the
shooting Sunday morning. In the
room adjoining that of Seth Burr's in
| Chinese Jacks dive there were found q
lot of arms and ammunition. These
were supposed to be Intended for the
purpose of holding up the gambling
games in Jusrsz last Sunday night.
The plot leaked out through half
breed confederate who was used as q
spy aud confidaut. 1t is as follow:
A raid had been p AIMED on the gam

raiders were to wait unit after the ma

up, then ten men were to swoop down
