JACK, The SNATCAER."
A Negro Follows a Young Lady and
Makes a Play,
POLICE HAVE THE FACTS.

Several loud screams, the opening
of the front door Of the Huntzinger
residence on North Second street. and
a fleeing negro was the sensational
scene enacted about 10 o'clock Satur-
day night.
The young lady, who was returning
to her home unattended, noticed a
man walking along the otner side of
/ the street. but paid little heed to him,
as the thought of being approached
never entered her mind. When she
was out Second street quite a distance
he crossed over and running up behind
her grabbed her around the waist and
began searching for her pocketbook.
Her screams were heard in the Hunt
Finger residence across the street. As
the door few open the negro released
his victim and made good his a
The attack of the brute frightened
the young lady very much, but from
the latest reports the fright did not re-
suit seriously. She was able to furnish
the police with a good description of
the negro. and they are making every
effort to locate him.
Albuquerque has been very fortunate
in keeping clean of these dastardly
crimes, and if the perpetrator of this
deed is captured he will be dealt with
to the extent of the law. There is
nothing that will arouse the public
quicker than an attack at night on an
unattended lady.

In New Mexico.

An important arrest was made on
Thursday of last week by Constable
Thomas Andrews of a man wanted at
Magdalena, New Mexico, for a murder
committed on the goth of last October,
says the Williams, A. T., News.
1t seems that on that date the accus

man. one McMains, were employed at
q camp, the first in the capacity of a
cowboy and the latter as a cook, Some
days previous the men had had trou-

COMMITTED SUICIDE.
Body of John Engle, Section Foreman
on Santa Rita Branch, Found
Near Hall Station.

The body of John Engle, employed
as a section foreman On the Santa Rita
branch of the Santa Fe, was found last
Sunday a week, about three-quarters
of a mile below Hall station, with a
gunshot wound through the head.
The gruesome discovery was made
by Mrs. Jay, wife of a mining man liv-
ing in the vicinity. Together with the
two little Hotchkiss girls she started
out to look for some cows that had
gone astray. About three-quarters of a
mile below Hall station they noticed
an object wrapped in a blanket lying
in some brush. Upon further investi-
cation they discovered that it was the
body of a man, and thoroughly fright
ened they fastened back to the station
and informed Mr.. Larson who lives
near. Mr.. Larson lost no time in send
ing word to Justice of the Peace Crow
ley, of Central, and that official empan-
| elled a %coroner's jury and fastened to
the scene.
The body was found with a six-shoot-
er and razor lying beside it and from
all circumstances the man had evil
IDENTIFY committed suicide, the verdict
being so rendered.
Engle was comparatively a stranger
around Hall station where he had been
employed by the Santa Fe but a short
time. Late last November he resigned
his position and sent his wife his posi-
his job and sent his wife and children
to FL Paso, intending to follow them
on foot. He was last seen at Hal sta
ton November 80, since which time
nothing has been heard from him until
the discovery Sunday. The remains
were so badly ~decomposed that they
would not permit of removal and were
buried where they were found. De-
ceased was a Pole by birth.

FORGER'S GUN PLAY.
Narrow Escape Of Officer Rossi, the
Chief Of Detexs Of the Rio 6Tdnde.
LANDS HIS PRISONER IN JAIL.

Charles Robinson, whose real name
is unknown, was bound over to the
grand jury under a bond of 81, 900 in
Justice Crawford's court this morning.
Robinson was charged with passing
n forged check on S. Vann & Son Sat.
urday night. The check called for
S24.50, signed by j. II. Newlander.
Robinson entered Vann's store and
bought some medicine amounting to SO
cents. In payment he offered the
check. Mr.. vann inquired of a friend
if Newlander was writing checks, be-
ing informed that he was, he handed
$24 out to the unknown lmme-
diately after the man left the store, he
telephoned to Newlander and was in
formed that no such check had been is
sued.
At a late hour Saturday night Robin
son was arrested by O1icer Rossi in an
Italian lodging house. When near the
Jail Robinson pulled a gun and placing
il against the officers breast and
pulled the trigger. but Rossi. who is
known as "chief of the detexs of the
Rio Grande valley was too quick for
his man. He grabbed the gun as it
was placed to his breast and one of
his fingers dropped under the ham
mer just as the trigger was pulled.
Another charge more serious than the
first will be brought abainst him when
the grand jury meets.
Robinson does not appear the
smooth individual as reported, but is
a very ordinary man. short in build,
peaked lose and very weak face. In
a sweat pox session with Marshal Nc
Millin yesterday he strenously denied
having passed the check or having at
tempted to pass any others. He also
refused to reveal his real name and
said he wished the officer had killed
him.
In court this morning he was identi-
fed by S. Vann and his druggist, Z. A.
Page, as the man who bought the
medicine and had the check cashedl
Robinson had nothing to say in court
this morning. but he looked many
things. He has anything but a good
appearance and will no doubt look
natural behind the bars. He claims
to be 35 years old, that he is a book
keeper, but beyond these few facts
nothing can be learned.
No doubt his real name adorns many
police records, and when it is learned
he may prove a valuable catch.
Quarters in the county Jail were pre-.
pared for him today. p

stir up more trouble and in the gun
play that followed had McMains at his
mercy, killing him on the spot.
After the murder English fed the
country and was only last week locat-
ed.
A cousin of the murdered man, nam
ed Philips. came here recently and
gave Constable Andrews all the infor-
nation in his possession, which finally
resulted in his placing English under
arrest.
Word of the capture was wired to
Sheriff Blackirgton, of Socorro county
who arrived here Monday, and, identi-
flying the man, returned with him to
New Mexico the same evening.

over to County Jail.

Charles Robinson, the forger and
would-be murderer of Officer Rossi,
was sent over to the county jail this
afternoon. He claims that he did not
reveal his identity to Marshal Nc
Millin, because he has a wife and
family in the territory, and does not
wish them to learn of his trouble. He
still denies he was the man who had a
check cashed, but claims that he was
in the st. Elmo and tried to have one
of his own cashed there, which he tore
up later, and that suspicion was
thrown upon him because he was not
successful in his attempts to have
several checks cashed. When arrested
he was minus the heavy coat and cap
which he wore when he was in Vann's
store. He wore a light suit and a
pair of house slippers. His grip and
clothing, he claimed, he left at Las
Vegas, but whether he lived there, and
what he was doing could not be
learned. He also denied having tried
to shoot Officer Rossi. The gun was
pulled from his pocket and the Of
ficer grabbed it. Robinson seems to
think he will be let off easy for the
two crimes he perpetrated in a very
short space of time Saturday night.
