PLACED ON TRIAL.
Barker, Who Shot Rev. John
Keller, Is Arraigned.

New York, June 17.-Thomas G. Bar
ker was placed on trial in the Hudson
county court, Jersey City today before
Judge Blair, charged with assault with
intent to kill. On February last Parker
shot Rev. John Keller of Arlington, n.
J., vicar of Trinity chapel in that place.
Barker told the authorities he shot the
minister because his wife had told him
that Keller had been guilty of a crimi-
nal assault upon her
When Keller was shot he was on his
way to Fort Lee. to assist at the ordi-
nation of a minister. Barker stepped
out from the shadow of a hedge and
fired at him with a revolver. Barker
says he spoke to Keller before firing.
Keller says he did not see his assailant.
According to Barker's story, Mrs. Bar
ker told him shortly before the shooting
that about IS months previously Mr..
Keller called on her while she was alone
in the house and made an improper
proposal. When she repulsed him, ac-
cOrding to the story told by Barker, the
minister attacked her violently and she
tainted. Barker further said his wife
had been afraid to tell him the story of
the assault because she knew that if
she did he would kill the minister
Mr.. Keller denounced the whole story
as utterly false. He declared that his
whole life was a refutation of the
charge.
The empanelling of the jury occu-
pied less than an hour, and then Prose-
cutor Erwin opened the case for the
state.
The prosecution at the outset intro
duced as evidence a photograph of the
hedge behind which it is alleged Barker
hid while waiting for Keller. Another
photograph OF Keller in bed after the
shooting was also admitted. Hugh r.
Roome and his daughter. eye witnesses
OF the shooting. gave their testimony,
and identified Barker as the man who
fired the shots that wounded Keller.

Safe Lane Across Pacific Estab-

New York, June 17-Safe steamer
lanes across the Pacific ocean have been
established, under the plan proposed

Reports received by Captain c. c.

navigation exists within the limits of
the tracks plated by the department.
The lanes across the Pacific connect

SLAP At LELAND.
Burton SO Regards Peters Sc
lection as Pension Agent.
FindIay's Friends Still Say He
Will Be Revenue Collector.

With snickersnee in hand held over
the head of Cyrus Leland, pension agent,
Senator Burton is now pictured in
Washington and preparing a graceful
submission to the presidents choice of
u. S. pension commissioner to succeed
H. Clay Evans. The report has gone
around that Burton starts war on Le-
land to put George Findlay in as pen
sion agent. This argues that Burton
is hard pressed by the pledge to Find
lay to make him internal revenue col
Iector or satisfy him. And if Burton
must oust Cyrus Leland to get a place
to satisfy George Findlay, the junior
senator from Kansas has opened mine
of trouble.
A friend of Burton said today that
the prospective appointment of Judge
S. R. Peters as pension commissioner
would really be the first blow aimed at
Leland. While the appointment of a
new commissioner would not directly
affect the tenure of the district agent,
it is desirable that relations be friendly
and close as possible. The Burton man
intimated that Peters selection would
be pleasing to Burton, Notwithstanding
Blue was the senator's first choice, be-
cause it would be displeasing to Leland.
A further opinion was ventured to the
effect that Chester ILong did not stand
SO distant from Burton as IS generally
supposed, all of which points to a grace
full acceptance of Mr.. Longs man as
pension commissioner and anattempted
discounting Of his success.
LeIand'S dislike to Peters is traced
back to the organization of the boss
busters, in which Peters took an early
and active part, but got out from un-
der after it was we'll started. Peters
would be apt to be /inimical to Leland.
That would be a thorn in the flesh and
unpleasant, while not necessarily dan
gerous. Leland says nothing about it,
on the principle of between two evils
choose tie least
A realization of the obligation that
Burton is under to George Find1ay is
read in the alleged attempt to make
him pension agent Secretary of State
George Clark made a statement today
reviving a position that Findlay's
friends have been holding until it
seemed that the appointment of Simp-
son as revenue collector was inevitable.
Clark asserted that Simpson viii not
be revenue collector. He has beenrather
close to Burton until the split came
over the revenue collector, since which
time he has been staying under his
blanket. He believes, as do many 9TH
ers, that Burton cannot upset Leland's
strength with President Mckinley.
Then, in the event of the failure of
this move, Findlay is backed into the
revenue collector race again in the face
of the private announcement that
Simpson is to be the man.
Burton has to SurmOunt the prestige
Leland acquired by lining up Kansas
for Mckinley in go against a growing
Allison sentiment in March preceding
the nominating convention att Chicago,
if the war on Leland is to succeed.

Great Amount of Property Is in

Denver, June IA break in the
walls of the Larimer & Weld reservoir

may destroy thousands of dollars worth
of property.
The reservoir is situated on the north
bank of the Poudre river, about one and
a half miles north of Fort Collins. 1t
has a capacity of many million gallons
of water and is now filed to overflow
ing.
This morning a break was discovered
in the dam and the water was pouring
through it like a small river The alarm
was quickly given and engineers were
sent to examine the dam They re-
ported that there was great danger
of the dam giving way and letting all
the water in the reservoir rush down.

voir were notified by mounted couriers
to get to places of safety as soon as
possible There are about $50 ranches
in the path of the probable flood and
all of these are in a high state of cUl-
tivation and contain many valuable
buildings.
It is thought that Fort Collins is not
in any danger, for it is on the south side
of the Poudre, which will undoubtedly
carry off part of the flood.
