CAPTAIN, REAL FAG|N, BACK IN
 DOUGLAS ID OPEN CRIME SCHOOL

DOUGLAS, July s. tSpeciaD- Capitan is in town!
 He is a real counterpart of the Fagin of fiction. and the smoothest criminal with whom the authorities of Douglas have ever had to deal. Change they call him, also, which Is well, inasmuch as a criminal of the cleverness of Capitan Is entitled to at least one alias. Ask any Doug las oficer who is the smoothest. the most eellike offender he has ever en- countered, and be will answer. "Capi tan" Ask him how it is that CapitaH is at liberty and he will answer, we cannot c:nch him" Ask him why he cannot "cinch" Capitan and he win answer, He is too smooth for us. We have to hand it to him."
 Trains Boys as Criminals.
 Capitan's cleverness as a thief lies in the fact that he himself actually commits no burglaries. He keeps a gang of men about him and wheH they do not do the actual stealing they are made emissaries to go among young Mexicans whom they persuade into the ways of crime. After satisfying themselves of the dependability of some young Mexican, Capitan's underl;ngs bring the young ster to the leader, and from then on Capitan's is the master hand that guides the operations of the young and inexperienced boy who has gone wrong.
 Capitan teaches him in the meth ods of crime and the yays of crimi. nals. and steels his nerves to dc deeds that he himself would not at tempt. This is not a mere theory of the police: they know 1t to be true from experience with Capitan

STUPEMDOUS PLANS OF ESPEE
 IN MEXICO VE|tED IN MYSTERY

Affairs of the $75.oo0. GOO Southern Pacific railroad of Mexico are some what shrouded in mystery just now. according to advices from New York. E. II. Hartman laid down plans for the incorporation of this railroad and the carrying forward of great i'm provements in Mexico just before he sailed for Europe. but it is said there may have been some changes in the original plans.
 One of these relates to Epes Ran dolph. who has been relieved as gen eral manager of the Cananea. YaQui River and Pacific Railroad company, although Judge Lovett. general coun- sei of the Hartman roads. stated ex- plicit1y recently that Randolph's DO siffon in this regard would remain un- changed As a matter of fact, Ran dolph simply becomes general man ager of the bigger scheme. with R. H. Ingram of Los Angeles as assist ant.
 The new company was incorporated under the laws of New Jersey last week by five employees of the South ern Pacific. whose combined. stock holdings amount to ten shares. The capital stock Is 75o,0oO shares with par value of 5000 The company acquires the lines under way by liar .Sman interests, which will extend from Nogales, Arizona, through Quay mas. Mexico, to Guadalajara. and al so the Cananea. Yaqui River and Pa c.fic. making all told 1ed0 miles of railroad.
 Extensive improvements. planned by Hartman in Mexico. will be car. ried out through the new corporation. It is thought that operations will eventually be extended to Panama. but no one but Hartman is author ized to say anything on this plan.
 The charter of the Southern Pacific Railroad company of Mexico is un- usually broad and sets forth the fol lowing objects of the corporation:
 To succeed to. own. hold and ex- pioit the concessions dated August IA, 1905, heretofore granted to j. A Naugle, representing the Southern

and his crime students in the past As many times as there are fingers upon the arresting officers hands has Capitan been arrested, and numerous times has he been convicted of mis- demeanors, but never, though big crimes have been laid at his door with moral certainty, has Capitan been convicted of felony charge. His boys" in times past, facing pun ishment for deeds to which Capitan had prompted them, confessed, thus duplicating the captain but those were the minor ofYenses and three Or six months was the best. or worst, the judge could do under the law.
 Police Watch Him.
 But If Capitan and his gang pull of any big jobs this time it will not be because they are not watched by the authorities. Several of them ar. rived yesterday from Courtland and were immediately spotted. Even though. the oflcers will watch them closely and "vag" as many as possi. ble, as preventive, it will be we'll for the public to exercise a little more than the usual care with val. uables.
 We are always on the watch when Capitan is about" said City Marshal James East this morning, because from experience we know him to be an unusually resourceful criminal If he actually committed crimes himself, his capture and con. viction would be- comparatively easy for he is a man marked to every of. ficer, but his method of going about the under world and prompting oth' CTS to deeds of crime makes it difi cult for US to place legally the re sBonsibility to him"

OF TRAGEDY
 INDICATE PUTNAM Was Guilty of No Impropriety Toward Young Woman in
 Nacozari Case

DOUGLAS. July s. - (Specia)-- The body of George B. Putnam left Douglas this morning for Denver, Colorado, where it will be given its last resting place. On the same train and accompanying the body was the late mining engineers friend, E. M. Rabb of Nacozari.
 Statements from reputable men. to the following statement of facts as to the tragedy.
 Putnam, in the first place. was a single man. He attended a dance and danced two or three times with the lady over whom rumor has it the tragedy occurred. The lady in the case, as well as the victim of the incident, were both eminently respect able and highly connected. There was nothing in the nature of intimacy be- tween Putnam and the lady, whose name is withheld to save her embar- rassment. although her friends say she is as innocent as any lady in the land.
 After the dance, however, through lholiNCs dlc ol no t0uSCihs oAe told Uriarte, the Mexican policeman with whom she had formerly asso- ciated in a social way-possibly there might have been an engagement that she would have no more to do with him. Then the Mexican is sup posed to have called Putnam out and shot him down. It Is quite evident that a more cold -blooded crime could not have been conceived or commit. ted.
 This is published in justice to Put. nam-though there is no occasion fof vindication-who had perfect right to dance with the young lady, who was eligible and respectable, and to bar the suggestion that he was gull ty of the slightest impropriety There was never a cleaner or more honor. able American gentleman in Sonora than George Putnam, his friends say
 No official news was received from Nacozari today concerning the case The supposed murderer. Policeman Uriarte, is connected with the crime only circumstantially, but there are few links missing in the chain of events following the crime and con meeting him with the murder. He has rot been seen since the crime and the suppos ton is that he fled to tbe mountains. A posse of thirty men have been sent after him and to effect his arrest if possible.

EMANCIPATION
 0F CHURCH IS
 FOSTERS PLEA
Divine Whom Fellow Baptists Have Assaiied Asks Free
 Thought For Church

CHICAGO. July S.-That freedom of thought and teaching must be add ed to political and industrial inde- pendence if religion is to make head way was the ground taken by Pro- lessor George Burman Foster of the University of Chicago in a sermon on "A Free People" at All Souls church, Oakwood boulevard and Lang ley avenue. The university teacher declared that inner freedom" was necessary to full development of the nation
 Professor Foster referred indirect. ly to his controversy with Rev. John- ston Myers of the Immanuel Baptist chuch when he stated that the rise of intellectual freedom would mean freedom to speak from the pulpit of any denomination without criticism The author of '"The Function of Re ligion in Mans Struggle for Exist ence" was frequently applauded. The audience expressed approval when he alluded to "the much-aligned Tom
 Paine" as a leader of free thought and when he intimated his leaning to- | ward woman's suffrage.
 Once there was but a single free man in our western word and that was the pope or the king and they were not sure which was the one. But
 now freedom has widened until 1t is shared by the man who digs our
 ditches and sweeps our streets. Scien- lists are freer, too. We are now
 going to see that the mind and nor. als of man. even the students of mans religion, are free.
 Wants Free Pulpit.
 We are going to see that man
 may have religion inside of the
 church without having to go outside after if. We are going to see that 1 man may be free to preach !n the ] pulpit of another denomination if he
 wants to. For, in our day. every
 man is his own king. his own pope, and he carries his sovereignty in his own soul"
 l Rev. Dr. Myers spoke pointediy of Professor Foster in his sermon at
 Immanuel Baptist church. The pas
 tor celebrated his fiftieth anniversary
 in the pulpit of the Immanuel Bap ...tist church and he said he had neve: had friction with anyone other than those who have sought to retard re 1igious progress. He said Professor Foster was one of these.

 Tn all the fifteen years of my pas torate here have had friction wtth only a few people. These are the Jones. who. Ike Professor Foster. have tried to retard progress. The Foster
