Shooting at Grand junction.

Denver, May 10.-A News special
from Grand Junction last night says:
A serious attempt was made on the
life of District Attorney Samuel G.
McMullin of this city by w. T. Down
Ing. a Whitewater rancher, this after
moon. The assailant's grievance
against his victim is laxity in prose-
cutting criminal charge preferred by
Downing, and which came up in the
District Court recently.
Mr.. McMullin returned from Denver
on the noon Rio Grande train, and
shortly before l o'clock was standing
at the foot of the stairway leading to
his Office in the Canon block, when he
was approached by Downing, who
asked him whether he intended to push
the case. Mr.. McMullin said that the
paper were all upstairs in his Office,
where they could be examined, when
Downing made the remark that he did
not want to be put off any longer"
and Immediately pulled a gun and fred
two shots, one bullet passing through
Mr.. McMullin's right wrist, breaking
one Of the bones. He was taken at
once into the Office of Dr. Hanson,
where the wound was dressed.
Downing, after the shooting, went to
nearby saloon. where he was placed
under arrest by the deputy sheriff and
taken to the county jail.
Mr.. Downing claims criminal
charge, which had been made against
a young man living near Whitewater,
regarding his daughter. in the District
Court, had not been prosecuted as Wig
orously as he desired. Mr.. McMullip
stated to-day that 1t is still pending.

Great Denver sanatorium.

Denver, May 10.-The first official
announcement of the plans for the
Agnes Memorial Sanatorium, to be
built south of Montclair, by Lawrence
C. PhiDps, as memorial to his
mother, were made yesterday by Cove
& Walsh, the architects of the build
ings. Contracts for construction have
practically all been let, work will be-
gin at once, and 1t is expected that
the institution will be open and ready
for operation by May 1, 1904.
The buildings will stand on forty
acres of ground at the corner of Sixth
and Hyde Parke avenues, at one cor
ner of tract of 160 acres which Mr..
Phipps bought to devote to the pur-
poses Of the sanatorium. The cost of
the buildings will be $250,000.
Beside this, Mr.. Phipps gives the
ground, which is valuable, and an en-,
dowment fund Of $250,000, the 'pro.
ceeds of which will go for the main
tenance of the buildings, grounds and
equipment.
1t is not intended that the institu.
tion shall be a charitable one where
free board and treatment shall be Civ.
en- whoever may apply.
1t will be an institution where CON
sumptive patients, in the durable
stages of the disease and able to take
care of themselves without nurses
may find the conditions best suited
for them, at the bare cost Of food and
other accommodations.
