MORE DETAILS OF THE MEXICAN
 OUTRAGE
Hurdles Were In Waiting for Auto Across Line, Thus Showing Conspiracy to Kid nap Sarabia.

DOUGLAS, July 3.-(Special.) J. With the publication yesterday Of he sensational story os the kidnap- ping of Manuel Sarahis. e sam Moret, as known here, rom the city jail of Douglas at the instance of the Mexi- can government, personified by Consul Antonio Maza, and the detailing of the brutal truth of the incident which was not only the most brazen piece Of outlawry ever committed in a civilized American community but which be- comes all the worse when it is appar- ent that it was done with the cogniz- ance of one or more American officers, public sentiment has been aroused to point of intensity never before ex- perienced over any matter in Douglas. And not any one or two persons or any one class are denouncing the out rage, but everyone who has read the newspaper publications of the story or who came into possession of the facts In any other way denounce it as the most monstrous rape of justice that has ever come to their notice. Outrage Overwhelming Newspapers containing the story were in demand yesterday as soon as they were on the streets and hundreds were sold during the afternoon The very idea conveyed by the brutal facts of the story--that, in the first place, an accredited representative of for eign power would so insult the pres ident of the United States, whose sane ton has officially received him, as to go into criminal collusion with equally criminal Americans, to disobey and trample upon the most sacred laws Of the American republic; that an Amer ican officer would be so derelict and so unthoughtful of the rights of those he has sworn to protect, as to permit the outrage; that the Mexican govern ment would then have the brazen effrontery to invade American soil and enter an American jail without any process of law: that they would kid nap by force and despite his protests choke him into insensibility, an American prisoner-when they have done all this and more-is it any wonder that the blood of every Amer ican boiled when he read of the out rage, and is it any wonder that, today, twenty-four hours later, E;s interest rT the matter is just as acute, his demand that justice be done and Sarabia be returned to the American jail just as strong? Is it any wonder that out of the swirling vortex of denunciation of the outrage these questions have be come uppermost in every ones mind:
 Pertinent Questions
 Who is the guilty American2
 Whats going to be done to compel the return of Sarabia?
 When is Consul Antonio Maza to re- signg
 Sentiment has crystalized to such an extent that an answer will very likely be found to each of these ques- tions before forty-eight hours have passed. Business men, professional men. mechanics clerks and all join ir the universal demand that something be done to correct this abuse of jus tice.
 This sentiment will find its expres- sion in a public mass meeting which will be held this evening in front of the city hall. A call was issued today by American business men who are de- termined that the Mexican, Sarabia, shall get a square deal. Petitions were issued this morning and circula- ted, and later in the day printed circu- lars calling the meeting were distrib- uted.
 Petition Demands Justice
 One of the petitions reads:
 "We. the undersigned. citizens of Douglas, believing that the Kidnapping of Sam Moret should be thoroughly in- vestigated and that if, the newspaper accounts of same are true the parties guilty of such an outrage should be visited with the severest punishment, do hereby request of the citizens of Douglas interested in the protection of American institutions and the further ance of justice, to meet in front of the city hall at p. m., July 2. for the pur- pose of taking such steps as may be advisable in the premises"
 The object of the meeting will be twofold at least No doubt the sever est condemnation will be heaped upon the American officers who are culpable and attention will be paid to Consul Maza. The matter will be gotten in such form that it can be laid before the governor and the state department at Washington with the prestige of the whole people of Douglas behind it When 1t is properly presented, that there will be blistering aftermath of the outrage goes without saying. for the American government will not, of course, stand for such methods, and neither will Governor Kibbey. Who Sarabia Is
 No one has as yet heard from Manu- el Sarabia, the highly intelligent vic, tim of this atrocious outlawry. The nternational-America yesterday be lieved him to have been member of the former St. Louis junta that was later broken up, but at the time 1t went to press had no definite knowl- edge about him. That he is Manuel Sarabia became known after this pa per went to press. When he received his time slip when an empioye of this office, the name of Sam Moret was given
 Sarabia Is one of the body of men who for years conducted newspaper at St. Louis by the name of Regenera- cion. It was devoted to the interests of the so-called Liberal party. which is anti-Diaz, with revolutionary tenden- cies Last year when the officers here were making it so hot for the rexo- ! lutionary movement, Sarabia was in St Louis with Flores Magon, Antonio viIlareal and others. publishing Re generation. The United States gov ernment lent itself to the suppression of the agitation and Regeneration was put out of business. Some members of the junta were later arrested: some &, lo <.ff.a,-, fr. r<., ~<.,...
