HI, of fn ATTORNEY
De Lara will make bitter fight for the
freedom of his clients and will leave
nothing undone that can possibly save
them. In the eyes of the attorney and
of the imprisoned men themselves this
fight is one for their lives. They realize
more fully than does any one else what
it will mean to them to be returned to
the country of their BIRTH
An effort was made yesterday to place
under arrest one of these collection
agents of the junta. He is printer and
has been employed on La Revolution, the
incen- -iary paper of which Modesto Diaz
is the editor.
Early in the day he appeared at the
central police station and asked to see
Dfaz. He came evidently to report prog
ress In the effort to raise money for the
imprisoned men and to obtain such direc-
tions as Diaz would give him for the
conduct of their friends on the outside.
Retained by Captain
He was invited into Captain Walter
Aubles office to make his application for
permission to see Diaz, and in the mean
time Detective Furlong was telephoned
for He went to the station with three
of his operatives. The man was told final
ly that he could not see Diaz. AS he left
the office he was pointed out to the de-
tectives and they were told to follow
him.
In some manner which is yet puzzling
the shadowers the little Mexican disap-
peared almost from beneath their eyes,
and while they searched high and low
for him throughout the sections of the
city in which he might be expected to
go they could obtain no trace of him.
Other collection agents of the junta
have been spotted by the detectives and
are being watched closely in the hope that
they will lead them to the hiding place OF
other members of the junta who are badly
wanted,
While the chief conspirators are in the
tolls there remains another noted figure
in the revolutionary band who has beer
searched for the country over.
This badly wanted man Is Enrique
Flores Magon, the brother of Ricardo ant

ing the fight to secure his release. 1t II
believed by the detectives that If Enriqu,
Magon is not already in the city he will
be here within a short time and that al
soon as he comes he will take charge o.
the fight for the release of the prisoners
from custody.
Reward for Capture
There being a price on his own head
dead or alive, he will of course worl
under cover and secretly. 1t is believed
however, that he can be spotted and ar
rested. and If he is captured the work o
breaking up the revolutionary junta II
the United States will be ended, for thes
men are the junta, it's soul and brain anC
heart, and without them the efforts of tn
other members of the revolutionary banc
would be NIL.
Detectives are watching every possibl
place where members OF the band Nigh
be found, and all OF the known friend
of the imprisoned mem are CONSTANT,
under surveillance.
