The TlIlInr Of HattIe Bater

The particulars Of the late FL Paso
tragedy, in which former Silver City
girl was the central figure, will have be-
come familiar to most Of our readers be-
fore this issue Of The SENTINEL reaches
them, hence we refrain from detailed
account Of same The Fl Paso Times
Of Thursday morning publishes the fol-
lowing regarding the preliminary hear
ing in the matter:
MRS rHONPsoN ALLOWED BAIL.
Ats O'Clock yesterday morning, when
Justice Howe resumed the hearing of
testimony in the case Of Mrs. Lave
Thompson, charged with the killing Of
Hattie Baker, the court room was crowd
ed with spectators who we're anxious to
hear the testimony for the defense.
Frank Patterson, bartender at the Acme
saloon, was the first witness called to
the stand, and testified that Thompson,
the husband Of the unfortunate prisoner
at the bar, had, TO his knowledge, VISIT
cd the Acme wine rooms two OF three
times in company with the woman Hat
tie Baker.
Lave Thompson, the man who was the
cause Of Mondays tragedy, was called to
the stand. He confirmed the pathetic
story Of his wife, which was published
in these columns yesterday morning
The witness did not spare himself, but
recited acts Of most disgraceful char
acter-acts In which himself and the
Baker woman we're the central Hguresi
acts, the recital Of which, in the pres
ence of an honest, noble wife, would
bring the blush Of shame and mortifica
tion to the cheeks OF any man possessed
Of one spark OF manhood. And it car
be said to Thompson's credit that he &C
knowledged his sins with some show ol
penitence. He stated that on the dny
that Hattie Baker was killed he saw hel
three times. He saw her at O'Clock
that afternoon and she told him she in
tended to ride past his house to tanta
lie his wife, and he begged her not tC
do 30. He SAID he had talked frequent
ly with his wife about how the Bake
woman followed him up. He had trieC
to shake her but she would not b'
shaken, and had told him that IL she
could not get him he should not live II
peace with his wife. Thompson tolt
how his wife had suffered on account ol
his intimacy with the Baker woman.
After bearing Thompson's testimon!
County Attorney Storms said he though
the court should allow Mrs. Thompson
bail and asked that it be fixed at $1,000
Judge Townsend for the defense di,
not think the amount Of Mrs. Thomp-
sons bond should be fixed at more thar
$3.50.
Justice Howe named $3.50 as the siz
of Mrs. Thompson's bond and it wal
promptly given with A. A. Howard an'
A. j. Downs as sureties.

those parts until they were sore, to overcome
in a measure the dead feeling that had taken

may seem, but a few days had passed before

Wanted to Commit Suicide.

Frank Beard, of Aberdeen, who was
in Chicago last week, attending the
meeting of the Taylor bondsmen, has
returned home. He had nothing to
say for publication any more than
that the recent statement of Daniel
X. Tenney, of Chicago, of whom Tay-
lor sought legal advice and made a
partial confession at least of his de-
falcation, is, in the opinion of the
bondsmen, as near the actual truth
as anything yet published or advanced.
In a long document which he gave to
the press Mr., Tenney contends that
he saved Taylor from committing
suicide and says In part:

self had been changed to concealment
at that moment all legal information
as to his intentions became matter
of ethics. The lawyer admits that
the hunted official felt the ignominy
of his position most keenly, and,
being proud man, his punishment
has already been as great as such
man can bear and live.
South Dakota people are talking
nonsense when they say Mr. Taylor
took with him an immense sum-"
said he. '"The bondsmen are also mis-
taken IN the matter. The Dakota
people have only just missed $500, 900
or S4O0, 900, and it is natural that they
should suppose that Taylor had COB
bled it up and run off with it for his
future use. 1t is mistake. If he
tells me truth, and | believe he does,
his defalCatiOn reaches back to his
first term and probably half of it oc-
cured then. He put large part of
the money into boom lands and boom
ventures which did not realize on the
promises. He next put more than $780,
600 into rat hole, the loan company
of which he was president, and which
had guaranteed the interest and prin-
cipal on the farm mortgages.
"South Dakota had a lot of weak
banks and Taylor came to the rescue
during the panic of 1893. They were
owned by his friends. He was foolish
in other investments, all of which
kept sinking him worse into the mire.
Politicians appealed to him for loans
and he let them have the money.
Personal pledges were taken for other
loans and they are now worthless. He
was caught right and left by bad in
vestments, wild schemes. He did not
have money enough of his own and so
he used the public treasury, and in
that is the single harm Of the proceed
ings. His plans and schemes were
legitimate, promising large returns
and quick profits. All his property
which remains from the wreck will
not exceed in cash valve $4,000. 1t
may not reach that sum. This much
he told me before he prepared to dis
appear and the bondsmen have been
told 1t all. His losses aggregate a
great deal more than his shortage"

8 Last Nights Mass Meeting Brings the
Campaign to a Brilliant Close.
The victory over the A. p. A. was only
begun yesterday and will be followed up
by an overwhelming defeat on Monday at
the polls If the meeting at Evans opera
house last evening is a criterion by which
to forecast the result. The audience was
large and enthusiastic, and every speaker
was warmly applauded.
County Commissioner A. NJ. Walker
presided and introduced the speakers.
Mayor Thornton was greeted by a hearty
round of cheers and he spoke for nearly
an hour. His remarks were a scathing
arraignment of the A. p. A. and it's influ-
ence. He spoke dispassionately but en-
phatically and forcibly. This was the sole
issue in the campaign, the guage of battle is
drawn and it now remains for the people
to decide II this city shall be given into
the control OF q secret society that meets
in darkness and secrecy, and whose deeds
are as dark and mysterious. They call
themselves the American Protective as
ISOLATION, but the name America was
never so wronged and villified as it is by
its use in connection with that order. To-
day an example of it's methods has been
given and the object lesson should be
we'll learned. The best citizens have
risen in their might and worked against
them. If this is such a noble order, with
such virtuous principles as are claimed
for it, is it not strange thing that no
public exponent of its teachings has ever
appeared in Anaconda? There is not a
member in this city who is proud of his
connection with IL. Every one of them
hangs his head in shame when he thinks
of it.
~ wish to meet" said Mr.. Thornton,
sthe back door and alley accusations of
these fellows. They say we spent too
much money on the smallpox epidemic.
They do not think of the danger which
threatened every home and fireside in
this city. They say we squandered money,
but forget that we saved the city from
quarantine, saved its business interests
and squelched the dread disease in so
days"
Mayor Thornton then gave to his COM
panions on the ticket n hearty endorse
ment and closed his remarks by exhort-
ing work all along the line next Monday.
Judge Fitzgerald made a neat speech.
He likened the A. p. A. to a reptile, gilded
for show on ATS back. with a musical rattle
in its tail. but venom in its mouth. Ii rat
ties for liberty. but stings it with poison.
