To Be Taken to Trial.

Sergeant Derbin and three guards of the state rangers arrived last night to take Springfield and McDade back to Hempstead, where they will be tried for the murder of Allchin. These prisoners have been in the Galveston jail since July 5. The circumstances of this killing are well known, as it attracted considerable attention at the time.
