the S. P and T. P, but had been dis

There were three or four box cars
at the depot He asked me what was
in them and then said he was in the
Chinese business He asked me if he
could use one of the cars to load lou
bales of hay and said he wanted to
load IA or Is Chinese in the car with
the hay. The shipper and consignee
was to be L. G. Campbell.
Was to Get $1,000.
when / asked him what 1 was to
get out of it he told me that the bonds
men paid different prices for the China
men and said $1,000 would be my COM
pensation. He said the Cinnamon were
in Juarez.
1--WE both examined the cars. Burgess
was with him. but he stayed in buggy
near the station. He said Burgess was
not in on the deal and knew nothing
OF ii.
He did not show up again until

he could get no hay. 1 gave him
note to Felipe Candelaria. He came
back and said he had bought it and
gave me $50 to pay for it,

and he said, BY God, I'm going to bring
'em over.
.'The day the Cinnamon left I was
to telephone him. Then he was to go
to Shreveport on the T. P, and receive
them there. He was to pay me when
he got back
