Quietus On Revolution.
= The arrest Of the Il ringleaders OF
the Reyistas Saturday appears TO have
put a Qu1etus on revolutionary activ-
ity\ here. The raid was originally
planned for Friday night, when the
junta was expected TO hold mass
meeting on Virginia street.
Had this meeting been held as orig
inaQy planned and the raid made at
that time, IT had been arranged with
Col E. z. Steever TO have on hand
one or more troops of the fourth cav
airy, acting with the mounted Texas
ridges and instructed to make the ar
rests by force, If necessary. The cav
airy troops were to have surrounded
the house where the meeting place
whose experience on the border makes
the raid.
But the ringleaders Of the secret
1unta followed the policy Of having
only small meetings. Even this system
did not thwart the officers.
JuntR Closely Watched.
All the time that the junta was
meeting in what the leaders believed
to be absolute secrecy, the American
and Mexican secret service departments
We're getting tangible evidence in form
with which TO arrest the leaders. The
purchase Of dynamite in FL Paso, Las
Cruces and elsewhere was known, and
even the pricing Of nipples for dyna-
mite bombs was known before the
rlnal purchases We're made.
No arms or ammunition were found
by the raiders Saturday, because, the
Officers say, their Wherea bouts are
known and guards were sent to watch
them until all Of the men wanted on
the charge Of conspiracy to violate the
neutrality laws, had been arrested, and
were safely in the county jail. These
arms, ammunition, bomb making tools
and trunk full Of papers will be in
PRODUCED as evidence before Judge T. S.
A1akey at the April term of court TO
prove that the Reyista plot was reach
ing the climax of a counter revolution
A carload Of ammunition was to have
been sent TO Ell Paso and unloaded as
mining machinery for transportation
across the river when needed. A prom
lnent resident Of the lower FL Paso
valley, who is believed to have been in
league with the Reyista junta here, is
known to have received shipments Of
suspicious looking boxes which were
consigned as agricultural machinery ,
but which were packed in q way the
W lncnester Arms company has Of ship
ping its rifles.
