PARDON FOR SANCHEZ
May Be Secured From the Governor
At an Early Day

District Court Clerk Iseac Alderete
has been working for some time to
secure the pardon of Manuel Sanchez
who was found guilty in June last by a
Jury in Judge Wsltball's court of as
sault with intent to murder and sen-
fenced to two years in the peniten-
tisry.
On the night of the election last
spring Sanchez. who is a small man
and q consumptive, got into an alter
cation with another man, who was
much larger physically. In the fight
which followed Sanchez stabbed the
man with a pocket knife. At the trial
it looked as If Sanchez would be &C
Quilted until he took the stand himself
"a I'D contradicted his own witnesses,
foolishly, on minor points.
Clerk Alderete today received tele-
gram from City Clerk Cat]in, who Is In
Austin to register the new city bonds,
requesting him to forward the state
ment of the district attorney. Mr..
Alderete takes this to mean that Mr..
Catlin has seen the governor and has
received encouragement in asking for
q pardon for Sanchez The statement
of District Attorney Desn will be for
warded at once.

MINOR COURT NOTES.
Smoking In the Court Room-Vol-
unteer Flremen Ask Exempticn
From Jury Duty.

A. W. Dellquest, the bookseller,
who was summoned on the jury in the
Martinez case yesterday aftern DON
gave as an excu:e for not wishing to
serve on the jury that the smoking in
the court room gave him headache
and made him ill. The excuse was
accepted. Some time ago Judge Cog
gin requested that there be no smok-
Ing in his court while ladies were
present. Why not stop smoking in
the court room altogether? It is not
only offensive to many but detracts
from the dignity of the court.
Chief Powers, of the Ere department
has filed with the district clerk List
of seventy-ive names OF volunteer fire
men who claim exemption from jury
duty. The recent test made in the
case of Lyman Krupp, Jr., assures
their exemption.

MARTINEZ MURDER CASE
The Sixth OF the Shelter Murder
Trials in judge Walthalrs Court.

A jury was occurred in the Martinez
case in Judge Wslthall's court this af-
ternoon and the iakingof testimony be-
gun. The case is substantially reoeti-
ton of the recent trial OF Eduardo Bus
tillos. Martinez was in the Ell Psso
saloon at the time the murder of the
bartenders, Aguilar and Treviso, &C.
Cured. All the evidence Introduced
in the five previous trials
shows that Amelio Garcia killed both
men. The state has attempted to prove
however that the four men alleged to
have been With him, including Marti-
nez, were implicated in the murders.
The Indictments make each murder q
separate crime and each man 10 tri ed
for the murder of each bartender.

MRS. RICH READY
Either For Freedom Or To Kill Her
self If Condemned


Although the eight days allowed by
law have not yet expired it was an
nounced at the court of letters this
morning almost as certain that by to-
morrow afternoon Judge Gonzalez will
have finished compiling his decision
aud that then Mrs. Rich will know
her fate.
The Judge has been buoy for several
days preparing his findings, which
must be given in writing, and as he is
required to state his reasons in full it
will in all probability be very volum-
inous. AS now expected the decision
will be delivered about O'Clock in the
afternoon as the courts in Jusrez
| never convene before o'clock
While it is impossible to say what
the Judgment will be it is universally
conceded that very strong defense
was made out In her behalf and was q
surprise to many who had already con-
demned her unheard. The officials say
with one accord thatregardless of what
the decision may be they are glad the
case will soon be finished and disposed
of as it has been q very trying one to
all concerned.
Mrs. Rich has several times declared
that in the event che ts condemned che
will kill herself before going to the
penitentiary as she has heard such ter
rible things about it.

showed the fruits of the united labor
unions. and BY his figures plainly
showed that this union is awake and
alive. Mr.. Lewis stated that West
Virginia was the poorest organized
State in the union, but that an effort
would be made to organize them. Mr..
Lewis ably argued for the common
laborer to become organized and said
this vast army of toilers would be of
great benefit to all unions and would
bring many blessings to the men wing
work for low wages and any number
of hours. He also suggested open
meetings, and for the union to secure
some speaker to address these meet
ings. He also expressed his opinion
that all unions should have turned
out on Dewey Day and showed their
appreciation of a man who won a
great victory by a combined effort.
The meeting adjourned to meet March
4th.

The friends of the refunding ordi-
nance, who tried to put the leaders
of organized labor in this city on rec
ord as favorable to the measure, and
to that end coached certain delegates
and urged them to attend the Assem-
bly, meeting, as it is alleged, found
that the sentiment OF that body was
against the r~efunding scheme. In the
report of the proceedings given below,
it will be found that a majority OF
those who participated in the debate
were outspoken in their opposition.
The scheme received a black eye. The
postponement until next Sunday was
virtually a declaration against the re-
funding ordinance, and was 20 under
stood, inasmuch as the voters of the
city will pass upon it before that
time.
