OPINION OF THE OFFICERS.
Declare That They viii Continue to
Investigate Case.

Investigate Case.
Chief Of Police Hilton is as non-eom-
initial as he was previous to young
feits statement, and that he is con-
hdent that the whole story has not
been told, is evident from the fact that
he gave instructions to the officers who
are working on the case to continue
their efforts to solve the mystery of
Collins death. He himself refuses TO
state just what he believes with ref
erence to the facts in the case. only
declaring that he will not cease his
efforts, but on the other hand, the story
Of the boy will only be the means of
redoubling his efforts.
our work on the mystery surround
ing the death of the old man will by
no means be relaxed said Chief Hill
ton last night after hearing young
Felts story. "On the contrary, we
viii use, if possible, greater efforts to
bring the facts in the case TO light,
and ! believe it Will be a matter Of
only few days until the whole thing
is solved to the satisfaction Of every
one interested. The boy has told his
story, and we have listened. But
meanwhile We viii redOuble our efforts.
Further than this I would prefer not
10 commit myself"
When asked how much of the story
of the boy he believed, the chief re-
fused to reply to the question saying
that he had no opinion in the affair
that he cared at this time 20 make
pubic. Others of the officers are in a
similar position of hesitancy in regard
TO the elimination of parts of the boys
story and refuse to express any theory
whatever. One of the officials who lis
tened TO the boys story, said:
There is no question that he knows
more than he has told There are num-
bers of discrepancies in his statement
and parts of it are not borne out by the
officers who investigated the scene of
the tragedy on Sunday.
The boy declares that there was no
blood at the mouth OF the cavern when
he returned to build the pile of rocks
at the mouth of the tomb, but all the
officers who have investigated declare
that practically all the blood that was
found was at the entrance. The lad
further says that there was no blood
on the rocks which he used in closing
up the mouth of the cave. This is
easily disproven by taking a look at
the large stone that was found in the
pile and brought down to police head
quarters where it is now. The stone

Minority Report Cuban Sugar Concession Says Is Contrary to
Dingley Theory and Practice Not Enough to Make
Sure Of the Markets.

UAsHINGToN. April 3.-The first
w Of the minority reports on the
Cuban reciprocity bin was filed
today by Representative Mcclellan Of
New York Of the ways and means com
mittea, who argues that the bill gives
Cuba much less in the way Of relief
than she is justly entitled to. He cites
the Teller resolution and the Plat
amendment as establishing our assur-
ances to Cuba and the world. Mr.. Nc
Cleilan then says.
1t has imposed upon us an ObIiga-
ton Of our own assumption. the obli-
cation to preserve Cuban Independence
and to maintain a government ade-
quate for the protection Of life. prop
erty and individual liberty. we are
bound in honor as q nation to see to
it that economic conditions in Cuba are
such that an adequate government
can be maintained. The United States
is about to fulfil part of its pledge
contained in the Teller resolution. The
pacifcation of Cuba has been accom-
plished. the government and control of
the island is to be left to its people.
subject. however. to the Platt amend
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1902-04-04

ment Because Of that amendment we
must make it possible for the people
of Cuba to govern their island success
fully"
Mr. Mcclellan then reviews the
sugar situation 10 Cuba and in this
country. He sums il US as follows:
FIRST the bill does not afford suhi-
cient relief to Cuba but it minimizes
the loss of the present crop Of sugar;
second, it is possible, but not certain.
that a 20 per cent reduction Of the
Cuban tariff viii result in giving US a
monopoly on the Cuban market; third,
the bill is an enunciatiOn of the Dem
ocratic doctrine Of reciprocity: it is a
breach in the wall of protection and
lowers in part the preposterous Ding
ley rates.
IF l am afforded the opportunity
when the bill comes before the COM
mittee of the whole, I shall try 70
amend il by increasing the rate of
reduction so as to make certain, not
only the control Of the Cuban market
by United States. but also the pros
perity Of Cuba. I shall also try to
amend by striking out the time limit.
Failing to amend for the reasons
here stated, 1 snail vote for the bill"

HoLps 10 HIs THEoRY.
DR.. Mayo Does Not Believe Wounds
Were Self Inflicted.

At the request of Mr.. Felt. DR.. Mayo,
who examined Collins body after it
was found, was called into the room
where the boy was last night, and the
father questioned him closely about the
condition Of the body and what it in
dicated. In beginning, Mr. Felt said
he thought Collins had been murdered
when he was found, and had thought
so all the time, until his boy had come
forward with his story. He said he
had observed that DR.. Mayo held to
the murder theory and he wanted the
doctor TO explain the numerous
bruises on Collins body and how he
thought they were made.
DO you think they were made in a
scuflie," he asked cor could they have
been made by Collins in his death
struggle. after cutting his thrOat2'
DR.. Mayo replied that after cutting
the jU,gular veins, as had been done
in the case Of Collins, a person would
not struggle very much, that he would
become paralyzed from exsanguinatiOn
of the brain.
AS I testified at the inquest" said
DR.. MAYO. there were some of the
bruises made before death and some
of them were simply Impressions made
by rocks upon which the body lay. The
abraisions on the shins were undoubt-
edly made before death, because the
blood stains were plainly evident there,
and had they been made after death
no blood stains would have appeared.
There is no question as to these hav-
ing been inflicted before death. The
nose, too, had the appearance Of hav-
ing been showed over a rough surface"
Clyde was asked if he had showed
Collins further in the cave when he
went to wall it up, but he declared that
he had not touched the body. He said
he was too frightened to look at 1t
much.
DR.. Mayo. when seen later, stated
that despite the developments in the
case. he still held to the theories he
has had from the first, caused by the
conditions he found upon the body.

Discovered Under Pile Of Rocks Near
Collins Tomb.

discovered Under File or ROCKS N ear
Collins Tomb.
The discovery Of the bloody clothes
of Collins near his grave yesterday
n.orn.ng has brought about condition
of circumstances that is puzziing the
police. Clyde Felt declares that the
clothes were in the place they were
found al the time, but the officers say
they searched that place thoroughly on
several occasions. The clothes were
found by W. A. River, Ernest Wight
aid III mas Gray, who were exploring
the hollow out of curiosity.
After looking into the cave they were
walking down the gulch when River
saw the bloody towel lying among some
rocks about seventy PAGES west Of the
grave, and upon looking closer found
the clothes under some small powders
that had been piled over them. There
were blOOdstains on the clothing, but
they were few and not very large in
size. Only some letters and unimpOrtant
papers were found in the pockets. The
find was reported to the officers and the
clothes were taken to the police station.
The officers freely stated their belief
at the time that the things had been
brought there during the night and
they still do not believe that they could
have failed to find them had they been
in that place all the time. Officer Gil
lespie stated that he sat on the rock
from under which the things were
taken and smoked just the day before
the things were found, and he is certain
they could not have been there then.
Chief Hilton says he examined about
the rocks the same day and found no
signs of the clothing.
ElVda saws he rolled the towel nm and
placed it inside Of the other bundle Of
clothing. but when the clothes We're
found the towel was four feet from the
bundle of clothing, showing that the
bu7d'e had been disturbed in some way.
Clyde declares that he never moved the
things after he placed them there and
the mystery is, how was that towel dug
out, and were the clothes there all the
time2
