sary. The enactment of such a
law, il is believed, will have a
deterrent effect on the fighters,
as the encounter between them
is made a felony, punishable
by Imprisonment, and the &C
custd may be arrested in any
state and extradited.
Should the bill fail to become
operative in time, the governor
of New Mexico can proceed
against the pugilists under a
territorial law, prohibiting
duelling as disorderly conduct.
Under this provision, he can
summon a posse and take other
steps to preserve the peace. II
is thought in official circles,
however, that this power is not
adequate as the pugilists might
manifest Indifference to the
puni hment provided.

Austin, Feb 5.-While it was

this morning without claiming
that the one convention move
ment was in the interest of
Reagan, later on they got this
eyes opened and result was that
as soon as the committee adj
jcurned Chairman Blake called
"a caucus of his free silver com
mittee to reconsider the one
convention idea. Col. Dudley
and John E. Linn Of Wharton.
While both are silver men
Were not invited TO the caucus
doubtlessly because they favor
two conventions the cancus
was held with closed doors
and while those present are
keeping their mouths shut it is
believed that Culbersons friends
have declard against the one
convention move which was
apparently started in the in
terest of Reagan. CuIberson
has few friends among the
ultras and they have been
weakening on the convention
since they discovered that they
were endangering their chief
tains chances Of nomination.

Murderer.

salt Lake. May 27.-No positive In
formation has yet reached the officials
here as to the whereabouts OF the Rev.
Francis Hermann.
The officers now assert openly that
never before have they been able to
forge so complete and strong a chain
of circumstantia1 evidence in any case
OF great concern as this
They are now directing their efforts
so as to discover what became of Annie
X Samuelson. The disappearance Of
her trunk and the purchase of a large
wooden box by the minister a few days
before her disappearance leads to the
theory that she did not share the pro-
bable fate Of her friend Henrietta
Clausen.
Some time ago. Hermann presented
to the wife Of Rev. 1IorlS. a package Of
handkerchiefs, which ne said formerly
belonged to his wife. One Of the hand
kerchiefs bears the initials "A K. s."
which are the Initials of Miss Samuel
son.
