Bishop OF the Methodist Episcopal
Church, responded as follows: Some

the conscience OF the nation some day.

Fighting for the Waters of River.

Wichita, Kan, Feb, 21.-An assem-
bly, of farmers and business men from
several counties along the Arkansas
river was held here to discuss means
whereby the Rocky Ford and other
irrigation companies in Colorado can
be compelled TO cease taking water
from the Arkansas river for irrigation
purposes.
Several communications from places
along the river from as far as Little
Rock, Ark, were read. Committees
were appointed to take different meth
ods OF action under advisement, and j.
L. Houston was retained as legal
counsel Should the action be success

success and every stone will be turned
to bring this about.

BROWN MURDER MYSTERY.
Theory Advanced by Police That 1t Was
Suicide.


Suicide.
Salt Lake, Feb. 21.-There is no
clue 20 the murderer of L. p. Brown, If
murder it be, who was found shot
through the heart in his store the
morning on the 10th. At the inquest
Ray Croxan, who was sleeping in an
adjoining room and was awakened by
the shots, testified that two men drove
rapidly away in wagon directly after
the shooting. The theory is advanced
by officers, however. that the
wagon noticed was probably a vehicle
passing by chance. They advance the
theory of suicide, claiming the dead
man had been swindled out of several
hundred dollars by green goods"
sharks on recent trip TO New York,
which preyed upon his mind to such
an extent that he sought relief in
death. In support of this theory they
claim Brown took several hundred
dollars away with him; that he told
acquaintances on the way home, this
side of Omaha, that he had made big
mining deal and would have plenty Of
money when his grip arrived, which
he had sent by express Upon arriv-
Ing home some store bills were pre-
sented him which he borrowed money
to pay. A day or two later his grip
came by express. After having opened

ed some green looking paper to the

evidence.
Brown carried several thousand dol
lars life insurance, payment on which
will probably be stopped pending
more rigid examination Of the mys-
terry. That SO much the appearance
OF murder was apparent is claimed to
be the result of premeditated arrange
ments to enable his family to get the
insurance money. Friends of the dead
man however, loudly protest against
the assertion that he died by his own
hand
