Additional Information of Tragic
Suicide of W. h RoystOn.

Denver, July 8 Rendered desperate
from the suffering incidental to constant
illnese, w. H Rpyston, 65 years old,
soldier OF the civil war who served in an
Iowa regiment committed suicide at 10
o'clock last night, at his home 1899
Champa street He used 32-calibre
revolver, sending a bullet through the
roof of his mouth, which passed through
the top OF his head on the left side and
widow, a con William, and a daughter
Alta. The coroner has charge OF the
remains
Royeton, who was a man OF means,
had been suffering from chronic stomach
trouble for the past six mouths and de-
SPARED of being cured. On this ac-
count he had been rather respondent at
times, but never threatened suicide.
Last night at a few minutes before 10
o'clock he told his wife, who had retired,
that he was going out for a walk. he
pulled some small change out OF his
pocket and gave it to his daughter and
then walking into an adjoining room,
drew revolver from his pocket and
placing the muzzle OF it in his mouth,
shot himself. His daughter, who for
some days hsd Q premontion that some
thing Of the kind would happen, rushed
into the room just as the shot was fired,
and caught her dying father in her arms.
Mrs. Louise Speck, wife OF 81. Speck,
an expressmsn from whom the Roystons
rented their apartments, was also wit
ness OF the shooting. She was standing
in the hail, at curtain. covered door,
which connected with the room in which
Mr Royston shot himself. just before
the shot was fred, she says, the curtain
lifted slowly, although there was not the
slightest breeze in the house, and she
saw Royston place the muzzle Of the gun
iu his mouth, aud heard him say: "I'm
gone"
When the shot rang out she rushed
into the room, but the daughter held her
father in her arms, as he drew his last
breath. Death, it is thought, resulted
as the bullet carried
away the greater part of the top OF the
skull Police Surgeon Dulin went to
the scene, but could only notify the
coroner.
Mr. Royston's mother-in law, Mrs j
| h. Rice, has been a member OF the fami
ly for some months and was in the house
when the tragedy was enacted.
Mr.. Royston came here about eighteen
years ago, and with his father-in-law, }.
4 Rice, conducted a toll road for a
number OF years in Lake county. He
owned large amount Of property at
Grand Junction.

Jeesie Morrison Gets rs Years.

Eldorado, Kan, July 10-Jessie Nor
risop, convicted on June 2S Of murder in
the second degree for killing Mrs. DIN
Castle at the latters home here in June,
1900, by cutting her throat with razor,
has been sentenced to 25 years in the
penitentiary. Motion for a new trial
was overruled Miss Morrison, who has
gone through three trials, took the SEN
tence with little demonstration. The
case will be appealed to the state su
preme court.
At her second trial Miss Morrison was
given but five years.
AS the judge told Miss Morrison to
stand up and asked her il she had any
legal cause why judgment should not be
passed upon her, profound silence pre-
| vailed in the court room and the specta
tors arose. Miss Morrison stood up in
front Of the judge with her back to the
crowd, but refused to say word and
would not even look at the Judge.
Judge Aikman said: at is sad thing
to find an intelligent woman like you in
this condition, but | have my duty to
perform l feel sorry for you, and, al
though l have a range from ten years to
life imprisonment that l can give you,
and, although l would be justified in
giving you a life sentence, l will not
The sentence that | am about to pro-
nounce will be tempered with mercy.
The judgment OF this court 10 that you
he confined at close confinement and
hard labor in the state penitentiary at
Lansing for period OF 25 years and pay
the costs OF prosecution"
Miss Morrison sat down without say
ing a word and without shedding tear.
In the hall the aged father and brother
sat down beside Miss Morrison on a
bench and discussed the sentence. Miss
| Morrison said: "The judge has been
against me from the fret and was bound
| to convict me l expected no mercy
| from him and did not get any mercy.
don't consider l had fair trial and be-
lieve the supreme court will again re-
verse the case"
The appeal to the supreme court will
| not act as stay and Miss Morrison will
be taken to the penitentiary at an early

UNITED VERDE FIRE
Pessimistic View Taken by One Who
 Ought to Know.

There has been great deal published in outside papers regarding the prob able courses to be taken to extinguish the fire now burning in the United
 Verde mines in this district, among
 them that or pumping water from the
 Verde river. Regarding this, w. M, Adamson, formerly master mechanic at the United Verde works, and who per hapS understands the existing coudi-
 tions as well as any person. has the following to say in the Jerome News: Tt is hard to say how the manage ment of the United Verde will succeed Tn flooding the mine to the extent of eXtinguishing the fire. The only supply of water that would be adequate is il
 the Verde river which is seven miles distant. To raise the water to the height required would require at least two stations of pumps of immense horse power. This would probably prove sufficient to lift the water as Je- | rome is $500 feet high. But when the water is raised there, have we any as
 surance that this will extinguish the
 fire? It Is known to every one who has 1 been in Jerome that the mountain IS split in every direction, which would
 permit the water to run off indefinitely.
 The question arises then, can these clefts leading away from the mine be sufficiently bulkheaded?
 1 Granting they sufficiently close the , mine or bulkhead it, so called. will that
 eXtinguish the fire? The level upon which the fire first broke out was closed ! tight for nine months. when a stream | of water continually pOurpd in lIpoD thr 1 fire. It was thought that would be suf- ficient, but that level was not opened again three weeks before the fire broke out as strong as ever. The problem of
 eXtinguishing a fire in a mine is one
 that is not solved thus far, when it as 1 sumes proportions like that of tho United Verde. The Anaconda mine al | Butte has been on fire for the past
 twenty-two years and they never have
 succeeded in putting it out

CERVERA HEARD FROM.

II was reported some time ago that Admiral Cervera, who commanded the Spanish fleet at Santiago, was dead. and again that he was still living in ex- treme poverty and utterly neglected by his countrymen. The Spanish consul general at Norfolk, Va, who has re- gently made a visit to Spain, now comes forward with a statement that Cervera is living at Cadiz and that he found him there in the best of health" and 'in comfortable circumstances.
 It would seem, also. according to the report of the consul. that the stories of the admiral's neglect by the Spanish government have been very much ex- aggerated. He is drawing from it a larger salary than he had before, all

that an accounting be made Of the money paid in for treasury stock and the books thrown open for inspection. Dr. Jones. the secretary of the com pany, did not have the books and was requested to bring them from Los An eeles upon a certain day, to which an adjourned meeting was taken. He did not make his appearance at this meet ing nor were the books forthcoming and another adjourned meeting was taken.
 Every step of the Los Angeles ofii- ccrs was frustrated by the solid action of the local stockholders.
 The next step that was taken was to bond the property for Si60,0Co, which was strenuously opposed and then came the offer of $1 2O0. coo and the sale to Calumet and Hecla in the face of the most violent opposition by the Co., chisc county stockholders.
 Then the Bisbee stockholders brought an action to enjoin the Los Angeles stockholders from making the sale on the ground that they had gained the ma jority of the stock fraudulently since they had issued stock from the treasury and that a majority of the stock was owned by the Cochise county stock holders.
 This was decided in 1avor of the Los Angeles stockholders in the southern California courts but an appeal was taken by Morris Denn. Martin O'Hare and other Cochise county stockholders to the higher courts. where a decision is now pending.
 Now comes an offer to compromise from the Los Angeles stockholders in timating that an offer for a compro- mise had come from a Cochise county stcckholder This was promptly turned down by the local stockholders last evening as being absolutely misleading and the proposition was rejected. The offer was approximately SS,COO

 every reason to believe that they vii win the case and be reinstated to theiI former rights.

There was a meeting of the South Bisbee stockholders last evening which adds another chapter to that already famous legal controversy. This is Of more than passing interest to many stockholders of Cochise county for there are many thousand dollars in- voived, says the Bisbee Review.
 The first step taken by the Cochis county stockholders to oppose the movement of the Los Angeles and other outside stockholders was when they took charge Of the meeting at South Bisbee in February last, and demanded
