The crosswalks in town are in
terrible shape, being covered with
several inches of soft mud. The
EXAMINER advocated the raising of
these walks last year to prevent
such deplorable condition. AS
they are now, in the fall and
spring they are covered either
with mud or water so as to be al
most impossible. They ought to
be raised as soon as the weather is
favorable and thus be made of
some use to the people.
The Woodmen dance was not as

been Wednesday evening, if the

However, about thirty couples

the floor and music was never bet

enjoyed by those present and the
Woodmen are few dollars ahead.

~. -NothlnR

WARRINGTON, June 7.-If. az now
seems probable, the first session Of the
Fifty-fourth congress adjourns this
week 1t will be the shortest so-called
slong session" since that of the Thirty
nth congress, and one of the shortest in
the history Of the government. This
record Is probably partly due to the pol
itical differences between the senate,
house and president. which have fore
stalled agreements on lines of legisla-
tion. and partly due to the determination
with which the Republican leaders in
the house have carried into effect Speak,
er Reeds caucus prediction that the
congress would be do-nothing assem-
blage. Legislation means appropria-
tions. the house leaders have said, and
ury's condition warranted no apprOpria-
tions, except the most imperatively nec-
essary, they have held the doors tightly
shut against classes of bills which usu-
ally receive the parings. Foremost
among the inevitable and regular acts
OF congress are the annual appropria-
tion bills for the support Of the govern
ment. Their preparation has consti-
tuted large part of the work Of the
session, and five of them are yet hang

FRESNO'S MURDER MYSTERY
Proves Utterly Unsolvable by the Local
Officers
Plenty Of Speculation. but the Only Thing
Certainly Known Is That the Armen.
ians Are Dead

FRESNO, June 1.-THE murder Of the
three ArmenianS is as much a mystery
as ever. The coroner sheriff and dis
trict attorney have been working on the
case, but so far as can be learned they
have obtained no evidence leading to
the identity Of the assassin. Daniel
Shahamarian, the nephew of the mur-
dered father, is now generally believed
innocent of the crime as no motive can
be ascribed. Besides Daniel is quiet,
inoffensive fellow and does not have the
appearance of being capable of such
heinouS crime. Suspicion centers upon
Russian whose daughter was once
assaulted by the younger Shahamarian,
and who had since been bitter against
the murdered family.
The coroner's jury adjourned last
night for several days to permit the
accumulation of evidence, information
now at hand being insufficient to Justify
the arrest of any particular person.
Many influential Armenians are now
working on the case. They are proceed
ing on an altogether different hypothe-
sis than the officers, as they believe
more than one person is involved in the
guilt. Much animosity appears to have
existed between the Armenians and set
tiers at Russiatown, and the former be-
lieve the murder was the result of strain
ed relations, the elder Shahamarian be-
ing leading aggressor in the hostil-
tiles.
Much mystery enshrouds the affair.
as no reason can be given for all three
victims being a mile from home at so late
an hour at night. The conclusion most
generally entertained is that the elder
Shahamarian was induced to meet some
one at the fatal spot upon business
representations and was killed; that his
prolonged absence caused his son to
go on tour of investigation, he meet
ing the same fate. The testimony of a.
Chinaman living near that pistol shots
were heard at a late hour at night would
indicate that the daughter finally went
in search of her father and brother, and
coming upon their dead bodies turned to
run away and was shot in the back of
the head

maintained that he would not hang and In
the face of that extra precautions will ba
