to knock ON the door he called out:

interest in the project This agree

the desire Of the Colombian Govern
ment to strike hard bargain.
Information obtained at the State
Department is to the effect that the
Uuited States does not propose to al
low the prosecution of this great work
to be longer delayed by such obstacles.
This Government will complete the
purchase of the canal by paying over
$40,0O0,000 the price agreed upon with
the new Panama Canal Company.
Under the rights it will then have ac-
quired, the United States will be entit-
led to proceed with the actual work of
completing the canal. Negotiations
with Colombia can be carried on while
the digging is progressing, and delays
on the part Of the Colombian Govern

A NEAT INVENTION
The Sheriff Fears an Attempt to
Rescue or Lunch Horn and He
Has Converted His Office
Into a Small Fortress

CHEYENNE, Wyo., Nov. 4.-Tom
Horn, the condemned murderer of
Nickel and the supposed murderer of
many more, now under sentence OIL
death, will not be hanged by the sheriff
OF Laramie county, if the efforts of his
attorneys in battling for his life prove
fruitless, but he will hang himself
The scaffold on which Horn will be
hanged will be the first of it's kind
ever used. In many States several
levers are used to operate the trap,
these levers being pulled by several
deputy sheriffs. with the idea that no
one will know which one lets the trap
fall St.
In the hanging of Horn a method
will be used which practically forces
the man to commit suicide The
mechanism which will operate the trap
will be located below the platform on
which the doomed man and spectators
will stand. When Horn steps on the
trapdoor a plug will be extracted from
vessel of water. This water will
slowly run out until a counterbalance
becomes heavier that the weight on the
other. and, swinging down, will'release
the trap and Horn will drop into eter-
nifty. This plan was worked out in
detail by the sheriff, and he claims
that there is no chance of any mistake
or bungling- ~
Sheriff Smalley has had his Office
made into an impregnable fortifcation.
in preparation of any effort to take
Tom Horn from his custody by force.
These precautions are due to remem-
brance of the experience of Sheriff
Tubbs in losing Woodward short
time ago. Eighteen witnesses will be
invited to Horns hanging, and by Gus
tom the sheriff will invite the sheriffs
of twelve other counties of the State to
be present. This was done by Sheriff
Tubbs when Woodward was con-
edmned, but the sheriffs never got an
opportunity to accept, Sheriff Tubbs
himself being absent from the, execu-
ton, for the reason that at that time
he was lying gagged and bound in his
Office.
