James Temple, who is charged with
 the murder of a Mexican named Juan
 Arvallo and held by the Mexican au- thCTities, will no doubt be released through interpositiOn Of the United
 States government. The s1Ory Of the
 killing is interesting, as it will enter ! into the disposition of the matter, the Mexican having fallen bue 2,000 feet
 from the international border line. Mr
 Harry B. LaWt0n, a newspaper core
 spCndent has a detailed account of the
 tragedy in the iast issue Of the Border
 Vidette. He writes tha- it was desire for revenge that brought Arvall0 to his
 death. Last Saturday morning at 3
 o'clock the tragedy was enacted. Three
 men stood on the main track Of the New Mexica & Arizona railroad in No gales. James Temple was ore, a man
 supposed to be J. D. Brown, r0admas-
 ter Of the Sonora railway, was the ether. The third, while positively identified, will not uU5il later on be
 given further prominence than the
 mention that he is an emplOye of p-ominent Nog2Ies business house.
 The secCnd and last named men were Wra2g gling, and the sound of their voices attTaO-ad 2 fourth-F'rancisc CC2treras. This man recognized the three, and a. once joined thEm The
 
 physical conflict was imminent, Wher the other men intsrsered, and in a measure pacified the belligerents. IL was noticed that the three men first mentioned were under the influence of liquor But for that Juan Arvallo would be living; but for that also, Juan Arvallo would not have come among the four men just at the time when the difficulty between two of them had been Quieted.
 With the appearance Of ArvalIo, how ever, conditions changed. From the maudiin breeze of talk of Q moment be- fore, the new arrival produced a whirl- wind Of fury and excitement. You in suited me once, he was heard to say to Temple, NOW l will have revenge"
 This was the beginning Of Lhe last act Of the drama of the life or Juan ArYallo He struck the first blow at Temple. Others followed and there was a ciinch. They both fell to the ground and the struggle continued thsre. It was desperate conflict. The men rolled upon the ground and seem ed evenly matched in strength. First one, then the other was upperm0st. If ei1her had an advantage it was not ap- parent to that audience cE three as they stood silently watching. The moon gave but little light; so little that it was impossible at ten feet to distin- gulsh one from the other.
 Presently the two men got on their feet They did not continue 10 fight; the combat seemed to be ended and Temple turned and ran toward his ca boose which stood 150 feet away on side track. At the same time Brown started away. Contreras and the ether man-one of the first three-started ,,c.,,{ n, ,,-o,t6 4T-aIIyi-or I,2+ f1EO tracks which are here forty feet apart In taking this direction they went near the caboose which Temple had entered just before.
 In this interval of time no one knows what Arvallo did. It is pre- sumed he followed the direction taken by the ether two. But what he did, may never ba~i in evidence. When Con tTeras and his companion had passed thirty or forty feet nCt,h O. the ca boose they heard a shOt, and believing it to be intended for them, fled without stopping to investigate. Then thsy heard two other reports. One of these rang out the death Enell Of Arvallo. He fell morally wounded, with bullet his abdomen.
 When Temple jumped into the ca bC0ss with blood CCzing from wound in his head, he aroused other members of tte crew who were sleeping there with the cry: They're after me, boys, hslp!" There had been sounds Of huITying feet without. It might have been the c. her two returning to help Arvallo As 9 matter Of fact, i5 is not improbable that the two We're friends Of Arvallo, and it is equally as probable that they migk. have taken hand in the first fight had MT. Brown not been present. Mir. Brown will testify that one Cf the two men did undertake to strike Temple, and that he (BrOwn) WAS struck ever the arm by 3 club in the hands of one Of the two.
 However all this may be, after Tsm- pie tumbled into The cabOOse crying: they are after me, the sounds oi hur- rying feet ceased and the night became still. Then Temple was heard to re- mark: They've gone; I'll go and get my hat lie secured his revolver and started to climb to the ground down .be side ladder. Before his feet touched the ground he was again attacked, this inc with 9 club. Before the crew could go to Temples assistance che last act of the tragedy had been played. With blows raining upon him, he open sd fire; the crew says they heard four
