ceived this afternoon and being satisfied
that the corpse was that of Clarence
Griffin, orders were telegraphed to ship
the body to this city for interment, which

The affair is shrouded in mystery and
has very sad appearance. The young
man was very we'll and favorably known
here and his untimely and sudden death
is source of great sorrow and sadness to
the community and to the many friends
of the Griffin family in this city.

A DASFARDLY DEED.
Fire Bugs Attempt to Burn the Resi-.
dence of MIR. Gildersleeve, Clerk
of the District Court.

A dastardly attempt was made last
night to burn the residence of Mr.. Gil.
dersleeve, clerk of the District court, and
1t may be that the fire bugs who are
causing 80 much trouble about town, have
in this instance left behind them clue
which will lead to detection. For some
months past Mr.. Gildersleeve has been
troubled by petty acts Of lawlessness,
perpetrated in and around his residence
by unknown parties. These acts have
been confined principally to petty lar
ceny and window glass breaking. Dur
ing this time, as many as Is squares of
glass have been malioiously broken, ard
dozen or more small articles have been
stolen. This forenoon Mr.. Gildersleeve
discovered an attachments on one of the
rear windows of his residence, which
shows conclusively that the intention was
TO destroy the building with fire.
In one of the squares Of glass a pune.
ture had been made, from which hung a
wire hook about six inches in length. To
one end of the wire was attached piece
of cotton table covering striped in red
and white, in size about foot square.
The cloth was burned to crisp around
the edges, and had been placed in suoh a
position on the window that had it con-
tinued to burn, the flames would have
reached the dry, pine blinds, and in a
short time spread over the whole build
ing. AS it was, however, the fire ran up
an inch or so on the cloth and then went
out.
The cleverly devised kindling apparatus
has been turned over to an officer Of the
law, and he will make an investigation.

NEW MEXICO GOVERNORSHIp
An Interview with the President
Perea ana Prince Str0ng-The
President Xix es LieweIlyn,

Ex' Chief Justice Waldo of New Mexico,
Colonel Richard Hudson of the same ter
ritory, candidate for internal revenue
collector, and D. M. Wortring, a candi.
date for collector of internal revenue of
West Virginia, were introduced to the
president by Senator Elkins. The presl-
dent asked Judge Waldo numerous cues.
tons about the candidates for governor
of New Mexico. Senator Elkins and
Judge Waldo are said to be backing Pedro
Perea for governor. W. H. H. Llewellyn,s
speaker of the house of representative
OF the territory, is backing Mr.. Perea.
During his questions the president
spoke very highly of Speaker Llewellyn.
Mr.. Hugh N. Price of Graham, Socorro
county, N. M, is one of the strongest
candidates for the governorship of that
territory. Mr.. Price represented the
Eighth district of Wisconsin in the Forty
ninth congress, and shortly after his
term expired removed to New Mexico,
where he has since been engaged in min
ing. He is backed by msR%of the lead
ing citizens of the territory and by about
40 members of congress. His appoint
ment is urged on the ground that he is
citizen of the territory, bright, able and
clean, and thoroughly safe man. and it
is stated that he is the second choice of
most of the other candidates.
1t is not out Of the possibilities that as
settlement of the fight over the COVER
norship the president might give the
place to Speaker Llewellyn, if he would
accept. This method has been pursued
by the president in numerous appoint
ments so far. He refuses to decide be.
tween two men who have brought on
hot fight over place. He simply pi,ks
out man not identified with the row.
This was done yesterday in the Calcutta
consulship, and shows the presidents
Intentions. Two Tennessee men had ap-
piled for the position, and we're making
things warm for each other. Colonel r.
F. Patterson, the man appointed, quietly
put in an application for the Calcutta
consulship or something as good. He
kept out of the squabble of the other two
candidates, and plucked the Plum
Washi ngton Star.

General Bartlett's views.

General Edward l.. Bartlett returned
last night from two weeks visit to Wash
ington and Kansas City. In Washing
ton he attended to several legal matters
pending before the U. s. Supreme court
and also called on the president twice.
General Bartlett says that the political
situation in Washington is just as it was,
that the president has the matter of ap-
pointing governor for New Mexico I'M
der consideration ana thinks such an ap.
pointment will soon be made. After the
withdrawal of Judge Morrison, General
Bartlett supported Hon. Pedro Perea for
governor and told the president that he
believed Mr.. Perea's appointment would
be satisfactory to the people. The presi-
dent gave no intimaton as to his pro-
posed action. No other appointments
to Office are yet under consideration and
he does not believe such will be consid-
cred until after the appointment of a
governor is disposed of.

prosperous and very hopeful for the
future. For grazing I have seen nothing
like this county in the territory. II is q
veritable paradise. The lack Of ade-
quate transportation facilities works
great hardship for people who have made
their homes there, and who are trying to
develop the county. II looks, however,
as though this detriment would be soon
removed. At least the people believe
that the prospective rbad, will soon
become a reality

NO DIssENsIONs IN THE CABINET

Minister Skoulondis Says There Is
No Truth in the Report.
Athens, May 8.-The newspapers of this
city yesterday published, u report to the
effect that Volo would be declared a neu-
trial port, and that the Turks, therefore,
would not occupy it.
The minister of foreign affairs, NJ
Skouloudis, in an interview, is quoted as
sa wing that the powers have not yet taken
steps to communicate with the Greek min
istry on the subject of intervention, al
though he understood the powers were dis
cussing some form Of Intervention. But
whether it would be direct intervention, or
simply mediation, NJ. SkouIoudis could not
say.
The foreign minister also remarked that
he knew nothing concerning the report
that volo was to be declared neutral port,
but, he added, ''if the Turks commit ex-
cesses in that town, Greece will take the
measures demanded by the situation.
In conclusion, he said: The report that
dissensions exist among the ministers is nb-
solutely false We are ready to accomplish
the heavy task which we have undertaken,
and we cannot quit our posts without fail
ing in our duty
