AS A KIND OF G0TTEsGERICHT.
XII ling of Schraeder by Won Kotze
Regarded as a Judgment
of God

BERLIN, GERMANY, April Is. - The
party of the Center III the Reichstag has
decided to put some questions to Chancel-
lor Won Hohenlohe in regard to the recent
German duels and ask to be informed
what measures the Government proposes
to take to prevent similar encounters in
the future. The question will also be
raised in the Pruss1an Landtag. This
movement of the Centrists finds support
in the highest social quarters and is also
championed by all of the leading Berlin
and provincial newspapers, and it is sig
niicant that journal OF the character of
the Cologne Gazette, in series of articles
on the subject, deplores the injury to its
prestige which the court continues to suf-
fer from its supposed sympathy with
dueling and appeals to the Emperor to IN
tervene and vigorously put stop to the
practice.
In the meantime the increasing public
sentiment against dueling has prevented
a series of duels which were expected to
arise out of the Kotze-S -Schraeder affair.
The meeting which was arranged between
Barons Lancken and Lahn has been
stopped, and several other impending en-
counters are off. Lieberecht Won Kotze
and his family have left Berlin for the south
of Europe. Their exact destination is kept
secret.
A majority of those who are fully in
formed as to the quarrel between Won
Kotze and Schraeder consider the death
of the latter as a kind OF Gottesgericht

was first bruited in the summer of 1894.

FATHER RAMON ORTIZ.
Born in santa Fe About Eighty-twu
Wears .AgO--Curate Of Juarez
since 1894 Died on Wed
nesday Morning.

Father Ramon Ortiz, who crossed the
dark river into the mysterious beyond at
Juarez, state of Chihuahua, on Wednesday
morning, was notable figure in the
church of the southwest.
He was born in Santa Fe about SO years
ago in the adobe building at the foot of
San Francisco street new occupied by
Mr.. Wedeles' wholesale grocery house.
Ho wes the son of Don Antonio Ortiz, who
expended part of his great wealth in
building the original adobe cathedral in
this city, and was also distanty related to
Hon. Antonio Ortiz Y Salazar, e1-terri-
torial treasurer. At an early age the
promising young man was sent to tho
City of Durango, Mexico, where he was
educated for the priesthood.
A continuation of the story is repro
duced from the Ell Paso Times: "Father
Ramon Ortiz began his labors for the
people Of Juarez when he was a hand
some, hearted and brilliant youth
of 20 summers and for the past sixty-two
years his home has been an asylum for
orphans and. all who we're in need of
home, comfort, food and clothes. His
door ever swung home to the call of chari
ty His big, warm heart loved all hu-
manity, and if everyone to whom he has
done kindly act could lay flower on
his grave to-day his beloved form would
tonight rest beneath mountain OF
flowers. His heart was full of kindness,
his nature was gentleness itself and he
did good for the love of doing it,"
All the business houses in Juarez were
closed during the funeral and the body
was inferred in private cemetery nine
miles down the Mexican Central.
G. W. Kendall, editor of the New Or
leans Picayune and who got mixed up
with the Santa Fe expedition in lS41 and
was taken along with the Texas prisoners
who walked from Santa Fe to the City Of
Mexico, pays a high tribute to Father
Ortiz in his book "Narrative of the Texas
Santa Fe Expedition"

GOVERNOR DENOUNCED.

AN ENFORCIBLE BOND.
solicitor General Victory Advises
Secretary OF Cattle Sanitary
Board as to Inspectors
ROnds.

In response to All iaquiry from Seore-
tary j. A. LaRue, of the cattle sanitary
board, Solicitor General Victory has writ
ten the following opinion:
have received your letter, dated March
5, in which you request my official opin-
ion upon the following questions raised
as to the bona given by Inspector D. R
Harkey:
l. Has the law requiring the governor
to approve the bond been repealed9
2. Is not it's acceptance by the board
sufficient?
3. Is not the bond given b. Herkey a
good one at common law!
Replying to these questions, I beg to
say:
First. That section 129 of Compiled
Laws of 1884, providing that the governor
shall approve the bond of inspectors has
been repealed, (ses laws of 1887, chapter
3, section 20, and laws of 1889, chapter
106, section ~.
Second. The acceptance by the cattle
sanitary board of the bond In question
was and is upon this point sufficient to
make the suretiea liable. Even had it
been necessary, under the law, that the
governor should approve the bond, the
fact thai he had not done so would con-
stitute no defense 10 a suit to enforce the
liability it creates. AS was said by Judge
Field, in People w. Edwards ct al, 8 Cal.
236: "The defect in the approval of a
sheritf's bond can lot be set up as de-
tense in an action on said bond against
the sureties The object of the law in
requiring the app wal is to insure great
er security to the snrlic and IL does not
lie in the ohligafs 30 object that their
bond was accepted without proper ex-
animation into its suihciency by the Of
ficers of the law"
Third. The bond is good as a common
law obligation and is enforcible for any
failure to comply with its provisions.
While there is now no statute requiring
inspectors to give bond, there is none
prohibiting it. Section 10, of chapter
LOG, of the not of 1889, provides that the
cattle sanitary board shall direct inspec-
tors "as to what duties they are to per-
form, as we'll as to when, where or how
such duties shall be performed" Section
2, of chapter "a, of the laws of 1891, gives
the board power to make all necessary
rules or regulations for the government
CT all its employees" Section 4. of chap
ter 20, of the laws of 1895, gives the cattle
sanitary board plenary power as to the
adoption Of such rules and regulations as
may be necessary to prevent the introduo-
tion of diseased cattle and to secure the
proper inspection of cattle for sale and
slaughter. These provisions of the law,
as well as others which might be cited,
