he knew the matches were found and that
the cotton had been shipped by the Savan-

office of the Savannah line Manager SOrrell
professed ignorance of the matter. He
thought that it was not serious. Il think"

Sanderson ~ Son were perfectly right in
refusing to receive the cotton until IN in

The cotton was to be sent to Antwerp by

also admitted by Colonel Gardiner that the
Major had received the sums said to have
been received by him. Specifications 2. 3
and 4 of the first charge, and
that he had wholly failed to account there

funds was unlawful or that the money was
intended Tor the military service was de-
MED. The items of these specifications
were S25 paid by the S. b. Hartman Manu-
featuring Company for replacing piles in

to oppose. to the end that all Democratic
electors of the State shall have full opp0r-

ries to elect delegates who regard the
snap convention as detrimental TO the
true interests of the party, ana who, In

DENVER, Oct. 3-JOhn Reese, an old
pioneer in Colorado, who was worth
100000, has been murdered in New
York city, and robbed of from $500 to
S400 which he was in the habit of car
rying with him because of his lack of
faith in banks. Reese was S4 years of
age and lived in suburb of Denver,
called Colfax. He had often made
known his desire to visit Wales, where
he was born. Being Of an enfeebled
mind he was controlled by his relatives
and they, knowing his childish ways,
permitted him to start alone on his
long journey. He left here April 10
last and as nothing was heard of him
for several months an investigation
was set on foot by his relatives here.
John Reese, Jr., went to New York a
few days ago. He found first his
fathers hat and valise and then he
found the body. He also made the
discovery that the old man had been
murdered and robbed. Young Reese
is now on his way from New York
to Denver.
