A conversation arose at the first table
ef the danger of Incorporating In the stat
utes Of this State the so-oaled unwritten
law. This discussion brought about a
reference 10 the Strother- Bywater case
which drew the expression of opinion that
the Strother brothers should have been
punished. No sooner had this expression
been used than Strother arose and went
into the corridor. where he was seen to
transfer a revolver to his coat pocket.
Upon re-entering the dining-room he
wakes deliberately 20 the other table and
said
Gentlemen. I am a brother of the
Strother boys, and I heard your express
sion of opinion few moments ago which
was unpleasant to me, and I want to say

were discussing a public question, and
meant no insult.

time. probably five or six months, depend

answer

a well known woman resident Of the
Mexican settlement. Just how he con-
cealed his 230 pounds of avoirdupois in the
senorita's skirts Is not explained, but he
was her for a week at least. Then he
passed as Heriberto Martell and Desidireo
Gomez for a few weeks, and then Detec-
tives Talamantes and Rico became
aware of his game and he found out the
fact that the officers were aware of his
deception and escaped the town.
Officer Works by Wagons Side
To learn who and what he was when he
was masquerading under one of these
characters Detective Louis Rico got a
job as a paper hanger and actually hung
paper in one of the houses in which the
famous fugitive was concealed. for time.
That the arrest was not made then was
due wholly to the fact that the papers
in the case were not in proper shape.
With the arrest of these four men last
night the Mexican consul states that the
entire gang of conspirators are now in
the hands of the law with the exception
of Enrique Magon and one or two lesser
lights in the junta. The capture of the
head and front of the revolutionary party
in this city and by local detectives is
greatly to their credit, and when the $780,
900 in rewards is divided up they will
undoubtedly receive a goodly share of the
money
All of the local detectives concerned in
the case have been In active pursuit Of
the men since December, 1906. and not for
one instant have they relaxed their vigil
lance in the matter and have always man
aged to keep in touch with the move
ments of the much wanted men and been
able thus to inform the authorities at
Washington of their whereabouts.
The prisoners will be taken into court
on the extradition warrants on the ar
rival of Ambassador Creel in this city
and will then be taken east and finally to
Mexico.
