Bill Cook Captured.
Santa Fk, N., M Jan. 13. United
States Marshall Hall today received a
dispatch from Sheriff C. C. Perry, of
Chaves county, who yesterday captured
-Bill Cook, the notorious outlaw of Okla
boma, stating that the prisoner had been
T safely landed in jail at Roswell this
forenoon. The outlaw's capture was
Highest of all in Leaning Power.
effected at an isolated cattle ranch, a
few miles southeast of Old Fort Sumner.
Perry and two deputies were in search of
horse-thieves east of Fort Sumner yes
terday, when Sheriff Perry met and
recognized Cook at the first glance.
Quicker than a flash Perry and his men
had their Winchesters up, and Cook was
so thoroughly surprised that he lost bis
nerve, and although he had two six-
shooters about his waist, his hand went
np at the command of the sheriff.
Handcuffs were put on his wrists and
he was mounted and strapped on his
own horse, which was found tied on the
plains near the cabin. One , deputy
led the animal, while Sheriff Perry and
his other deputy rode behind them.
Thus the trip to Roswell was made, a
distance of 65 miles. Marshall Hill ex
pects to hear from the United States
district attorney of Oklahoma, Arkansas
and Texas, to whom he wired, announc
ing Cook's capture. It is said that with
the state, express and railroad compan
ies' officials, there are rewards amount
ing to $15,000 for Cook's capture. ' In an
interview with the captured bandit, at
Roswell, he acknowledgedjhimeelf as Bill
Cook, and said that when captured he
was on his way to Mexico and meant to
quit the highway. He said:
"The officers have me, and will take
me back where I am known, and there
is no use for me to deny vit, but don't
give me hell like the other fellows have,
for I have not committed half the crimes
that are charged to me. I have done all
my work on the open highway, never
killed anyone, nor have I ever robbed a
poor man, unless it was of a horse or food,
that I .was compelled to have when
dodging the officers . My brother Jim
was never connected with -my train-robberies,
and I did not have anything to
do with the Rock Island or Texas &
Pacific holdups, nor the Santa Fe & Fort
Worth, but did rob the 'Frisco, at Red
Fork, last July. Five other boys were
with me. I had nothing to do with the
bank robberies. I was in but one rob
bery, and if indicted for that under the
name of Bill Cook, will plead guilty."
A Strike Will Oconr Today on the
Brooklyn Street Railways.
Brooklyn, N. Y., Jan. 13. At a meet
ing of the board of the District Assembly
Knights of Labor tonight, Matter Work'
man Connelly gave out the brief state
ment that the employees of all the street
railways in Brooklyn, with the except'
ion of Smith & Jay line, would strike
to morrow morning. In explanation
he said President Slocum, of the
latter line had agreed to accept the
terms as proposed by tne men. Previous
to the meeting Connelly said that in the
early evening 1,000 electric workers,
employed by the various companies,
had been atsksd by the officials, if in the
event of a strike, they would take the
places of the motormen and conductors,
and that they had refused. Thereupon
they , were told there was no further
work for them. As the conductors and
motormen of the various' lines came in
tonight for the final trip of the day,
they made the usual inquiry as to what
car they should take out next morning.
They were told they would be required
to take none, as no schedule, bad been
arranged. This ia looked on as indicat
ing a lockout.
Flood at Chehalls.
Chehalis, Wash., Jan. 13. Owing to
heavy rains and melting snow the Che
halis and Newaukum rivers are now all
over the bottoms in this vicinity. The
railroad tracks of the main line and
South Bench branch are several inches
under water. The lower part of the
town is submerged and many families
have been compelled to move. There is
two feet more of water than last .year,
and the water is higher than since 1867
Notwithstanding this, little, damage has
been done so far. The water is going
down. -
