GRAVES IN PRISON.

The Condemned Man Placed in a Cell
Awaiting Death.
CANON Cry, Col, Jan. 12.-Dr. Graves
arrived here shortly after midnight last
night. He was not alone, for four other
prisoners, sentenced for various crimes,
were taken to the penitentiary at the same
time.
was handcuffed to another prisoner. On
the journey from Denver to this place, the
doctor displayed a great deal of nerve,
chatting in an unconcerned manner about
things in general, but refusing to talk
about his case. On arriving at the depot
here, he and his fellow prisoner were
placed in the prison van and rapidly
driven to the penitentiary, which is about
mile from the railway station.
The enormous pile of grey stone which
forms the penitentiary looks even colder
than the intensely cold weather, and the
doctor, as he glanced at the walls before
passing through the heavy door of the
main entrance, shivered as if from ague.
After entering the prison the doctor WAS
allowed a short time by the fire, and grad
ually recovered his composure. A hurried
search of his clothes was made, but moth
ing of contrabsnd nature was found.
The warden then unlocked the handouts
which held the doctor to his fell
low prisoner, and he was led down
the half lighted corridor to the
section of penitentiary in which the cells
for condemned murdsrers are situated.
The jailer with his prisoner stopped in
front of cell No. 8, and the former opened
the door, which made a strange noise as
it swung back on its heavy hinges. DR..
Graves was told to enter, but he hesitated,
and in husky voice said:
"My God, this is terrible"
The jsiler waited moment or 80 and
again requested the doctor to enter, which
he did, and throwing himself upon the
small iron cot. asked to be left alone. Tho
doctor was taken to the prison barber shop
this forenoon, where his venerable looking
hair and sristocratic side whiskers were
removed and he was given striped suit in
place of his dignifed Prince Albert coat
and well fitting vest and trousers.

A high compliment was paid the ap-
pointed last evening by the commission
ers, only one ballot in each instance being
necessary to elect them and
unanimous in each instance. They
are all we'll and favorably
known and can be depended upoh to give
good account of themselves. The citi-
zens of New Haven can well feel proud of
the fire department of their city in the ex
cellsnt discipline and good service which
they have rendered in the past under the
able and efficient management of Chief

TRAIN wRECKING ATTEMPTED.

Bowlders and Ties Placed on the
Consolidated Tracks Near Fair
field.
A dastardly attempt was made last night
to wreck the accommodation train bound
for New York which leaves this city at
9:15 p. m. When the train was just this
side of the Fairfield depot the snow pillow
in front of the engine struck huge
bowlder, and the force of the collision
hurled it from the track, otherwise q Sc
rious wreck would have undoubtedly oc-
CURED. A short time later one of the
track-walkers employed by the railroad
discovered half dozen ties laid across the
tracks on which the east bound trains run
and removed them just in season to per-
init the passage of an east bound train.
The attempts to wreck the trains are sup
posed to be the work of the miscreant who
has for some days past been terrorizing
that section of the state.
