Two reports rang out . No one was hit . A second later , Prévailles received a blow under the chin from the butt-end of a revolver , which brought him down where he stood . He was entered at the Dépôt soon after nine o'clock . * * * * * Ganimard enjoyed a great reputation even at that time . But this capture , so quickly effected , by such very simple means , and at once made public by the police , won him a sudden celebrity . Prévailles was forthwith saddled with all the murders that had remained unpunished ; and the newspapers vied with one another in extolling Ganimard 's prowess .
