"The officer, I repeat, sir, who arrests a thief, or a ." He stopped to wipe his lips, and to still them if he could by doing so, which he could not.

"There must be some mistake somewhere." The policeman smiled. "Oh yes," he answered briskly, with some humour in his tone. "There's always a mistake, of course, in all these arrests. You never get a hold of the right man just at first. It's sure to be a case of his twin brother. But there ain't no mistake this time, don't you fear. I knowed you at once, when I see you, by your photograph.

Various arrests were made, and three men avowedly anarchists were sentenced to death in December, 1884.
