"AUT0 BANDITS"
TROUBLE POLICE
DEPARTMENT MADE 80 ARRESTS IN
SEPTEMBER, IS OF THEM FOR
TRAFFIC VIOLATIONS.

Despite the extraordinary cessaitions in
the Valley the past month, the Browns
vile police department had compare
lively quiet month. 'Auto bandits and
"speeders" formed the greatest source of
annoyance.
The month ~ September has been a dis
astrous period for those automobilists who
persist in running their ears more than
twelve miles an hour The police records
for the month show that ten eases have
been tried before Judge Celaya, and that
eight convictions have resulted. In other
character of arrests there were twelve
eases.
All of the traffic arrests have been made
by Officer Stanley Morton. Mr. Morton
was appointed b. the chief for duty as
traffic cop on account of his experience
as an automobile driver and his knowledge
Of automobiles. In the eases where con
victions have been obtained four fines in
the amount Of %5 and costs were assessed.
and fines OF 81 and costs in the balance.
All Of these fines, with one exception, have
been paid In this ease the defendant APP
pealed his ease and his attorneys have
filed an appea. bond with she city secre-
tary.
In other lines the police records show
that the month has been comparatively un-
evensful Only twelve eases of the most
common character, intoxication and dis
tnrbng the peace, have been tried and the
defendants fined. The court record shows
that while four more arrests have been
made convictions have not been obtained.
Most Of these complaints are signed by
either Chief W. B. Linton or Night Lieu
tenant Gordon.
The decrease i'm the number of minor Of
tenders is probably caused by the clos
ing Of the bailes N Brownsville and the
surrounding country.

MOUNTAIN GUNS
SENT FORWARD
REACH HARLhGEN AND ARE At ONCE
DESPATCHED TO NUMBER OF
POINTS ALONG RIVER.

Battery ID of the Fourth United States
field artillery, mountain battery, which
reached Harlingen Thursday afternoon
from FL Paso, was detrained last night and
at daybreak iifty-nine pack mules carried
the various parts of the guns TO points
along the Rio Grande designated by Major
Edward Anderson Of the Twelfth United
States cavalry. These guns are to be used
against the Mexican raiders If they make
further attempts 10 enter American ter
ritory. They probably will be placed Ia
positions along the old military highway.
which follows closely along the basik Of
the Rio Grande.
Today was remarkable in army circles
by reason of the scarcity of reports as To
bandit activities. AT the various military
headquarters, at Ifarlingen and Fort
Brown it was stated that all is quiet. with
out any undue activity at any point.
Probably as many as two of the guns
will be placed at ProgreSo. opposite where
five hundred Mexicans are reported to be
organizing for further raids On American
soil. The presence of the mountain bat
terry l. expected I'd have 4 double purpose.
that of a moral restraint on the lawIe~~
bands. and commanding Notifications on
the Mexican bank Of the Rio Grande.
