Failed to Ghe Credit.
In tho Tribune's article telling of
tho arrest of Darling,, the negro mur
derer, credit should have been given to
Chief Mccomber and U. P. Dcctectivc
Galycan for apprehending Darling. Ev
ery available clue had been run down,
prior to Darling's apprehension, and
these two officers concluded that a
search of tho negro quarters on cant
Front street was the last resort. There
a crap game was raided, flye negroes
arrested and at tho last moment a
trunk In ono of the rooms was broken
Into and the automatic revolver found
which Darling had used and subse
quently gave to another negro. With
this evidence In hand, a search for
Darling was made, be was found and
jailed and his confession followed.
