Police Distrust.
The police regard such stories with a
good deal of distrust, and sometimes
strongly suspect that those telling
them are not conspirators at ali, but
only miserable creatures posing as such
and trying to pass as plotterS IN good
standing without having the necessary
credentials.
Sometimes a conspiratOrs band is
organized in the penltentIary among
the , prisoners and then they have
great deal of trouble to provide them
selves with enough discriminating dOcu-
ments to go round, for paper and pens
and ink are difficult to obtain in prison.
/ There have been violent quarrelS be-
cause of this scarcity of discriminating
documents in such cases, those without
any complaining bitterly at the unjust
discrimination which LETT them paper
less.
Never Lose the Documents
Occasionally the police or the sol
diers have given chase to a suspect in
the open country and have pressed him
so hard that the poor fellow has been
obliged to throw away his arms and
ammunition and discard his clothes
and shoes and swim rivers and crawl
naked through the brush. At last he
has been trailed down and caught
nearly dead from exhaustion bleeding,
bruised, mere wreck of a man with
them papers Clutched IN his right
hand, giving complete lists of all the
conspiratOrs of his union and their
addresses, together with location of
meeting places with maps) and full
details of an assassination planned,
with time, place and names of those
/ involved. The hardest worked men IN
Mexico are the secretaries of the yar1-
Gus conspirator brOtherhoOds who have
to make out all the discriminating pa
pers for the members.
ZaPata's Documents.

with his discriminating documents on
his person, took great pains TO leave
them behind at Huautla when he fled
from that stronghold IN the state OF

would find them there and read them
and that his reputation as a cOnSplra-
tor would be safe Dearly as Zapata
loved those discriminating documents.
he parted with all of them rather than
endure the shame Of being suspected a
sham and a fraud and a poSeur- The
documents he left behind him were
complete and convincing, and proved
beyond question that he was one OF
the most cOnspiring conspirators and
persistent plOtterS IN all OF Mexico.
The discriminating documents were
brought to the City Of Mexico and filed
away in the great discriminating dOcu-
ment room at the palace, They were
Police Great Document Hunters.
There are instances on record where
suspected plotters have mysteriously
disappeared and their relatives have
known them no more, but in all such
cases the missing ones invariably were
careful to leave their discriminating
documents where the police could find
pleasanter for all. Sometimes the in

He stated that absolute guarantees OF

citizens of Juarez, and their families,
who wished to remain over there, but
that If they should decide to leave,
they could obtain a pass at any time
to bring their belongings to the United
States after they had given sufficient
proof of ownership.

On the spot the not too much for d devotion rich mine to have pair. and I advise other travellers to buy themselves from vain regret by giving it.
