The police and deputy sheriffs have
been kept quite busy during the past
"a hours arresting fugitives from JUS
tice. Several have already been tax
en- into custody and the officers are on
the lookout for others.
FL Psso is capital place for the
capture of fugitives. They come here
from all points of the compass and
many of the chief offenders against the
United States laws, now in Mexico,
passed through this city when they
took refuge in the republic south of
the Rio Grande. Many petty Offend

dou btedly lead to international COM
pltcations, was the arrest last night of

Harold. The prisoner is wanted for
an alleged cold-blooded murder COM
mitted In . small village near Psrral,
Mexico, nearly q month ago.
The murderer Immediately fed and
took 8 direct course for the border. He
reached this city without being appre-
hended and was congratulating him
self on his supposed security from ar
rest or detection. But he was not des-
tined TO escape, for brother Of the
murdered man took an oath beside the
corpse of the deceased that he would
follow the murderer and see that he
was brought to justice.
The brother arrived yesterday and
made his way to police headquarters
without loss Of time. Be was referred
to Detective George Harold and in
short time had pointed out the alleged

LOya's swarthy face paled per-
when he confronted the. broth
er of the murdered man and he shook
like leaf when Harold arrested him.

his innocence, but soon relspsed into
sullen silence and would say nothing
not return to- Mexico without extrsdi-
ton papers.
Tho brother of deceased went to
Juarez this morning to procure the
necessary warrant, etc, for the prisoner
