BANDIT KING TAKEN.
After a three Chase Jose Diaz I!
 Cantured

After three Chase Jose Diaz Is
 Captured.
 The last of the desperate bandits of Porto Rico is a prisoner and is likely to spend the remainder of his days in prison. Jose Gonzalez Diaz. better known as "Monrog, the King" who has long terrorized the mountainous Arecibo district. and for whose appre- hension, dead or alive, the Spanish colony of Arecibo offered $500 reward, was arrested on April 20, in the barrie Gaonico. near Utuado. and taken from there to Arecibo.
 Diaz is charged with a. long list of crimes, including highway robbery, in cendiarism, rape and other similarly genial doings. He was once the fear less leader of gang which was dis persed after the American invasion. He and his followers lived in the many caves in the Arecibo district, where formerly the Carih Indians made their home. Few men were brave enough to hunt them, but gradually the ugly band was reduced by individual captures of surrenders until only "The King" re- mained.
 For three years he has defied the au- thorities. A short time ago Captain Molina of the insular police, with twen- ty men, spent several days searching for him without success as the natives, especially of the barrie Roncador, where he was born and has lived the greater part of his life, feared him and assisted him in evading arrest. Then word came that he had been seen in the barrie Gaonico and Officers Bidot, Pineiro and Gensler searched the mountains for him three days and nights. He was at last located in an isolated house which the officers sur rounded and then "the king presented himself at a window. He was ordered to surrender, but a fifteen minutes barley ensued. They he submitted like lamb and invited the officers to en- ter and take him without resistance. He had been starved out. He had no weapons on his person, but in the room were six large knives and some razors.
 The officers and their prisoner pro- ceeded first to the village of Utuado. The streets were crowded with men, women and children anxious to get a glimpse of the noted bandit, who loomed up above his captors, being a fine specimen of physical manhood. He Is six feet, five inches tall, weighs one hundred and seventy-five pounds and has piercing black eyes and an open countenance which bellies his des- nhapanfa a ff.flt11 a rich Spanish family, which long ago disowned him, is fairly we'll educated and is a good eonversationalist.
