BILL TAYLOR CAUGHT.

       Fort Worth, Aug. 1,--There is no doubt but that the notorious train robber and desperado, Bill Taylor, has at last been captured,"  said Superintendent G. A. Taft of the Wells-Fargo Express company yesterday, when asked if he had definite information from Mexico regarding the man's reported apprehension.
       It will be remembered that a Mexican Central passenger train was held up and robbed near Bermejillo, Mex., on the night of July 22, and the Wells Fargo company relieved of $52,000.  The job was planned and carried out by two men whose names were afterward learned to be Lee Smith and Jim Parish.
