To ForestaII Any Attempt at
Lynching Last Night.
DAMAGING STATEMENT
In Regard to the Shooting of O'Con.
nor Was Made to Sam Bridgers
Yesterday Morning by the
prisoner-Juan Garcia Says He
Gave His Son Up to Save Him
From the Possibility of Encoun-
tering the Mob.

10 forestall any attempt that might
have been made to lynch young Edel
berto Garcia, Sheriff Boone saw to il
that the county jail was well guarded
last night by force sufficient
to hold a hundred men al bay.
Besides the sheriff, three rangers
and three deputies were on watch and
had any demonstration been made In
the vicinity of the prison it is more
than probable that bloody encounter
would have taken place between the
rioters and the officers.
The city, however, WAS unusually
quiet, and although talk of lynchin q
was freely INDUCED in in various parts
OF town nothing eliminated therefrom,
= 1t Is true that a small party as
sembled on Ell Paso street and threat
eued to march to the Jail and take out
the prisoner, but after time the pro-
Ject was abandoned. Another small
party got as near the prisoners quart
ers as the court house,
but after talking awhile, broke up and
each individual went home. No one
could be found with sufficient hardi-
hood to lead the assault and as con-
sequence the only thing that resulted
was talk.
o'CoNNoR's CONDITION.
This morning the condition of O'Con-
nor was reported as unchanged and
physicians say they cannot tell what
the result of his wound will be until this
evening.

opinion is that this contract ought to
be worth great deal to Mr.. Pfaff.
The Cloudcroft privilege has not vet
been disposed of.
1.-The Alamogordo hotel has always
been money losing proposition, but it
was determined to maintain it as q
hrst-class house and there is no doubt
but that it has been q great ADVERTISE
ment for Alamogordo. Mr.. Plaff is to
take charge of the business November
1st. In the meantime it will be looked
after by the.company."
A rumor had been in circulation
here to the effect that Col. Harvey
would be connected with Hotel Shell
con, but when asked in regard to the
matter he said:
mo, am not to be connected with
the new hotel at all, that know of.
However, 1 am going to try to secure

DAMAGING STATEMENT.

DAMAGING STATEMENT.
Although Edelberto Garcia declined
to talk to q HERALD reporter yester
day he made damaging statement t.
Deputy Sheriff Bridgers early yester
day.
Bridgers says that Garcia slept like
log after beiog brought to the jai
and appeared to possess q conscience
that gave him no trouble whatever. He
finally awakened and when.the officer
approached the cell the prisoner asked
him if O'Connor was dead.
81 told him l supposed he was," said
Bridgers. Then the prisoner said. Il
thought that shot would kill him.
AN sorry, though, and wish that Her.
nandez had had that gun and had done
his own fighting with it,. ="
Garcia has been in trouble before.
Six or seven months ago he was before
Justice Ellis to answer warrant
charging him with having viciously
attacked his sisters husband with 8
knife. His brother-in-law testified that
he was forced to use heavy chair to
defend himself from his assailant.
The case was decided in favor of the
defendant.
Juan N. Garcia, father of the prison
er, called at.the HERALD Office this
aud said he wanted to make q
statement for publication.
He asserted that he gave his son up
because he feared mob violence and
not because he believed him guilty.
Il found him in bed in house near
the lumber yard" said he, land told
him to put on his clothes and come with
me.
HE said he knew nothing about the
shooting, but 1 was afraid that he
would fall into the hands o. mob.''
The elder Garcia was state ranger
n 1880 under Colonel Bailor and has
been living in Ell Paso many years.
