CASE OF FUGITIVE KRATZ.
The State Department in Correspon- dence With the Mexican
 Government.
4 POLITE SUGGESTION FROM MEXICO.
Might Surrender the Fugitive St. Eouisan But Only On the Under standing That the United States Government Will ReciprOcnte-An Embarrassing Condition.

Washington, April 2o.-The state department has had some correspond ence with the government of Mexico respecting the case of ex-Couneiiman Kratz, who is fugitive from justice from St. Louis, charged with bribery. The man, at the departments in stance, has been arrested, and is locked up at Guadalajara, but as the ofense with which he is charged is not one of the otfenses named in the treaty as subject to extradition, the department has been trying to pro cure his delivery to the Missouri au- thorities as matter of eomity. A considerable obstacle has been en- eountered in the shape of a polite suggestion of the Mexican authorities that they will do this, but only on the understanding that the United States government will reciprocate in kind when occasion arises. This is an embarrassing condition, impossible of fulfillment, for no American court could deliver fugitive from Mexican justice if his offense is not set out iH the extradition treaty. It is thought that an effort will be made to secure the punishment of Kratz by Mexican courts if he can not be returned to Missouri.

R00SEVElT'S RECIPROCITY.

Washington, March 25.-May 20.
1902, is the new date fixed for turning
over the island of Cuba to it's people.
The change of date was made, if not
at the suggestion, then with the full
approval of President-elect Palma and
his advisors, Seniors Tamaya and
Quesada, who were with him at the
war department today. This date
should be memorable one in Cuban
history, for it will not only mark the
acquisition of full independence but it
will be Cuban Inauguration day, it hav-
ing been determined that President
elect Palma shall be inaugurated on
the same day American control ceases.
All but the smallest details of the
change in Cuba have been planned and
these remaining details were under
adjustment at the meeting held at the
war department today. 1t was decided
there should be no halfway evacuation
of the islands, and the present disposi-
tion is to move the entire United
States contingent, civil and military
away from the island, not even leaving
corporal's guard of soldiers in any
camp.

THE FRISCO ROAD
Report That II will Be Extended to
Pacific Coast

Dispatches from Los Angeles say
that President Yoakum of the st. Louis
& San Francisco railroad, who is now
in that city, has strongly intimated
that his company will build to the Pa
cific coast with San Francisco as it's
ultimate terminus.
President Yoakum has just complet-
ed tour of southern Arizona, where it
is said he looked over the field with a
view of selecting the most inviting
route for his road.
He acknowledges that the company
now has surveyors running line west
from the terminus of the recently ac-
quired Blackwell, Enid e. Southwest
ern road in Oklahoma.
While President Yoakum refused to
enter into details it is said that he was
very emphatic in his declaration that
his road will control transcontinent-
al line from Savannah, Ga, to the Pa
cific coast and that the company has
backing sufficient to enable Ii to build
and operate it's own road without seek
ing connections with any of the pres
ent transcontinental roads.
This emphatic declaration on the
part of the Frisco president may have
had something to do with the sudden
determination of the Southern Pacific
people to acquire the Ell Paso & South
western lines.

Ger, who told of finding nickle mould
in Woodward's house and described
the process of manufacture.
Judge Baker ordered an evening ses-
sion, at which the defense presented
its side of the case. The jury retired
about 10: 80 and in less than half an
hour brought in the verdict above men,

Mysterously Disappeared.
AN ARTISTS STRIKE.

La Junta. March 25.-Mrs. Henrietta
Miller. resident of Los Angeles, Cal,
and &c years old. was assaulted by a
negro in the railroad yards early this
morning. She asked a Pullman porter
to show her the car for Denver. He
started through the yards with her and
struck her on the head with his fist,
rendering her insensible. He then
criminally assaulted her. When she
regained her senses she dragged her
self to the depot and reported the af-
fair The Chicago train had not yet
left, and w. H. Wallace, Pullman
porter, was arrested. He had just been
washing his clothes. Bloodhounds
traced Wallace to the car. A lynching
may occur.
The sheriff got the prisoner away
safely, taking him 10 Pueblo late this
afternoon.
The run of Wallace is between Den.
yer and La Junta, laying over fifteen
hours here and residing in Denver.
This has given rise to the suspicion
he may be the thug who has committed
other assaults here and in Denver.
Mrs. Miller identified Wallace before
he was taken to Pueblo for safe keep

Big Fruit Crop Coming from Farming
tom

The leading fruit-growers in differ
ent parts of San Juan county state
that the present condition of the fruit
crop is excellent. The cold nights
that have prevailed kept back the buds
so that no damage was done by the
freeze of last week. Peaches and
apricots during the last few warm
days have begun to swell their buds
rapidly and another week of similar
weather will put them in full bloom.
The winter apples. such as the Jona-
than and Ben Davis, which were light
yielders last year, promise a very
heavy yield this year. Much alfalfa is
being irrigated the first time and is
showing all over the field. Most of the
plowing for wheat and oats is finished
and these crops are mostly planted.
