BUTTON FORCES A LETTER.
He Signs His Father-in-Law's Name
to Plea for Clemency.

Atlanta, Ga, Oct. 49, go The official
order refusing to commute the sentence
of Win Dutton, the white man sentenced
to be hanged in Gainesville on Friday
for the murder of Mrs. Mobley was
issued by the governor to-day.
A peculiar fact in connection with the
mans application for clemency came out
to-day. Some time ago the governor re-
ceived letter signed Thomas Baker, the
name of the father of the murdered
woman, and the letter begged that Dutton
be spared, as he Baker was sure he was
not guilty of killing his daughter. This
letter proves to have been forged by Dut-
ton while in his cell. He did it to enlist
the interest of the governor and start an
investigation of his accusations against
the man Massey and his wife, whom he
claimed had committed the murder. The
order to-day seals buttons fate. He will
hang after having gained a respite of six
weeks by his forged letter.

is not strictly u basin whose depth in,

The greatest depth in the Atlantic

THE KANSAS HEALTH BOARD.

TOPEKA, Kan. June 15.-The attorney
general has been called on by the state
board of health for an opinion as to what
their duties are under the new law max
ing an appropriation of $4,000 to establish
a quarantine against cholera invasion i'll
case the epidemic should visit this country.
Mr.. Little gave it rs his opinion yesterday
that the board could establish Quaran-
tine at the boundaries of the state but
that in case of outbreaks within the state
the matter would come within the Juris-
dction of the local health boards who
would haye entire charge, but would, of
course, be under the supervision of the
state board It is not the duty of the state
board, the attorney general thinks, to take
charge OF local epidemics. The state board
will soon get Il new set of rules TO this
efiact
