NEW GAME LAWS.
Greater Protection and More Severe
Penalties.


The last session Of the legislature
took up the matter of protection of
game aud fish and started with house
bill 1877 for the protection OF buffalo,
elk, deer or mountain sheep, except
between the 18th OF November and
the 18th Of December of each year,
amending the old law which allowed
hunting OF such game any time In the
month of November and Decembe OF
each year.
Senate bill No! 205 amends section
1854 Of the revised code, to limit the
number of game birds which can be
shot by any one hunter in any one day
to tifteen--old law twenty-fve--and
adds penalty of Imprisonment in the
county jail not less than five days nor
more than thirty days for violation Of
the laws, with both fine and imprison-
ment in the discretion of the court.
House bill l57 follows with provis-
ions to prevent shipment of game
birds, to back up the provisions Of
senate bill 205. The house bill pro-
hibits shipment Of more than fifteen
game birds by any person, firm or
corporation, and increases the fine for
having such birds in possession TO not
less than ten dollars nor more than
cne hundred dollars. This act also
makes 1t unlawful for any railroad
company, express company or common
carrier to ship or carry more than
fifteen OF the game birds mentioned,
with like penalty for so shipping.
The fish laws we're changed by pro-
hibiting fishing in September, which
month is added 60 the old provisions
of law, and the length OF fish which
may be lawfully caught is increased
from six inches to eight inches, by
house bill lOi; while senate bill 225
amends section 3l0S Of the political
code TO apply the penalties of unlaw-
ful taking or transportation &c fish to
companies or corporations or their
agents, as well as individuals.

A WONDERFUL MAN.
John George Secured Deeds t.

ing bank there, is now In the county
jail being unable to give the necessary
bond for 81 500. He is destitute and his
only income is a pension Of $12 month
which he draws as veteran of the
Mexican war. He represented that he
had $3,974.3O in q bank at Sherman,
Texas, and depositedswith the Portales
bank draft for that amount for collec.
tion from Sherman. While waiting for
returns, he drew $3.50 from the Portales
bank and went to San Francisco. When
arrested he had just negotiated loan
of 81, 900 from a young man who had
agreed to pay the money the day after
George was arrested. The loan was
negotiated on the strength of deposit
slips and bank book on the Texas
bank and the draft for the usual amount
of s., ,974.3O. George had secured pas
sage and berth on steamer bound fol-
the Philippines and expected to leave at
once. While In San Francisco he nego-
tiated the purchase OF twenty-foul

NEITHER WoLCOTT
NOR TELLER
Situation in the Colorado Legisla-
ture is Such That the Election
Of Either Of the Leading
Candidates Seems
Impossible.
CAUCUSSES ARE UNABLE
TO AGREE on PLANS

Denver, Colo, Jan. 8.-The legislature
will not meet till this afternoon and
the governors message probably will
not be sent in till tomorrow. The anti
Wolcott Republicans caucused this
morning to arrange for distribution
of patronage and also to fix the chair
manship of the various committees. At
the caucus they invited the Wolcott
people to come and share in the patron
age. Frank Howbert, Wolcott's man
ager, said today If Wolcott is not elec-
ted senator he would prevent the cleo
ton of anyone else. A caucus of DEM
ocratic senators failed to reach conclu-
sions on appointment and patronage
this morning because most of the time
was consumed in discussing the gener-
al policy. The result of the Republic
can house caucus and the later action
of the house will govern the action of
the senate. Mr. Teller stated emphati-
cally today he would not withdraw.
After six hours of balloting during
which the division of vote of the Re-
publican members, who are in the ma
jority, made the election of speaker
impossible, the lower house of the 18th
general assembly last evening effected
compromise organization.
During the balloting in the afternoon
the vote stood II each for the Wolcott
and anti-Wolcott candidates, and 81 for
the Democrats. Late in the afternoon
combination was formed between the
anti-Wolcott Republicans and the
Democrats which resulted in the elec-
tion Of ]. B. Sanford of Douglas county
asspeaker.
All other officers are anti -Wolcott Re-
pubicans except one. who is a Eemo.
crat. 1t is said, although the statement
could not be confirmed, that the agree
ment gives the Republicans practically
all the patronage of the house, but as
sures their seats to the eleven Demo-
cratic representatives from Denver.
1t is claimed that the other Democrats
whose election is contested will be un-
seated, In which case the Republicans
will have majority OF one on joint
ballot.
UnGer present conditions it is regard
ed as certain that neither ex Senator
E. O. Wolcott,nor Senator H. M. Teller
can be elected to the United States sem
ate, and it is predicted that no election
can be reached at the present session of
the legislature.

heretofore President Castro expresses
willingness to submit the matter to arbi-

communication, he is now willing to
recognize the propriety of submitting
the claims refer ed to In the British and
German notes to The Hague, something
that he has not up to this point been
willing to do. Some details remain to
be arranged before the next step, which
is the appointment of commissioners and
it is not yet known how Castro will re-
ceive the demands still insisted upon by
the allies for money payment and how
be will view the rejection of his own de-.
mand for immediate withdrawal Of the

Pittsburg, Pa, Jan. S.-Six victims of
last nights railroad collision near Du-

McKeesport hospital wher they were
taken Immediately after the accident.
There was no change in their condition
today. Thomas B. Cook, the conductor
of the accommodation, who was expec-
ted to die during the night, is still liv-
ing, but the hospital authorities do not
think that he will survive the day. 1t
is thought the other victims will all
get well. Superintendent. Mitchell is
making thorough investigation and
says that SO far as he has been able to
determine, the responsibility for the
wreck rests with the crew of the
freight in not having flagman out to
stop the passenger train, until it had
crossed the main track and closed the
switches.
