GOVERNMENT WILL IGNORE
VIRGINIA COURT INJUNC CTION

Washington, June 20.-The time Of
the Cabinet meeting yesterday was con-
sumed in large part by the considera-
ton of the legal questions involved in
the decision Of the United States gov
ernment to disregard the decision OF
the court of Virginia and seize the un-
completed gunboat Galveston at the
Trigg shipyards in Richmond.
The Cabinet, after considering the
opinion of Attorney General Knox.
unanimously decided that the govern
ment case was sound and the program
outlined yesterday by Mr.. Moody
should be pursued. An effort will be
made to launch the boat next Monday
II conditions permit.
At the Cabinet meeting Attorney
General Knox presented a carefully
prepared opinion, strongly affirming
the right OF the government to disre-
gard the injunction granted yesterday
in the Virginia court, which forbids the
resumption of work on the Galveston
pending a settlement Of the claim OF
the sub-contractors who have not been
paid for material furnished
In his opinion, addressed to the Pres
ident, Attorney General Knox says that
the letter to Secretary Moody raises
the question Of right and power of the
United States to take immediate and
complete possession for all purposes of
vessels of the United States in course
of completion under contracts with
ship builders where there has been a
breach of contract with the latter. Mr..
Knox continues:
The right of party in ordinary
litigation to a release of property from
attachment upon giving bond for in
demnity is fundamental. 1t manifest

BRITISH GOVERNMENT WILL
NOT RECOGNIZE NEW MONARCH

London, June 20-In the House OF
Lords to-day Foreign Minister Lans-
downe announced that the British min
lister to Servia had been instructed to
withdraw from Belgrade for some time
on the arrival there of King Peter. and
in the meanwhile to do nothing which
could be construed as recognition of
the government. Lord Lansdowne ex-
pressed his indignation at the crimes at
Belgrade and said he thought it was
not desirable that Sir George Bonham,
the British minister. should be in that
city when the new regime was inaugu-
rated.
The foreign minister added that no
proposal had been received for concert
ed action towards Servia by the pow
ers. but the British government had no
intention of maintaining ordinary re-
lations with the persons concerned in
the maSsacres.

Would Stop Child Marriage.

The laws of Colorado do not regulate
the ages of persons who get married.
They simply require that the contract
ing parties, if under age. shall have
the consent of parents or guardians.
This loophole has placed the Tellu-
ride agent of the Humane Society. Mr..
Inman, in a quandary. He is trying to
prevent the marriage of two children,
residents of Telluride, but the girl
swears her mother is willing, and the
expected groom VOWS he will have AM
aryllis in spite of the Humane Society
and the law. And now Agent Inman
has laid the problem before Secretary
Whitehead in the following letter:
Il wish to call your attention to a
case of couple of children that are to
be married some time in July. The
girl, still in short dresses and small for
her years. is but thirteen years of age,
and her prospective husband is fifteen
years old. The girl tells us her mother
has given her consent to the marriage.
Can such marriage be legally per-
formed in this state? If not, what can
be done to prevent it?"
Secretary Whitehead wrote to the
agent to interview the parents of both
the girl and the boy, and IL the facts
were as stated to present his affidavit
as to the facts to the County Court
and ask to be appointed guardian of
tne girl, on the ground that her mother
is not competent person to have
charge of her. Once appointed guard
ian of the child Mr. Inman can control
her actions and prevent the marriage.
The names of the children are not d.

COL ORADO STATE AFFAIRS AND
DOINGS AT THE CAPITAL CITY
Pardon by Governor Peabody.

Although the board of pardons on
March 3rd refused the petition of Emil
Baeder, serving sentence in the peni-
tentiary of twenty-five years for the
killing of A. Fl. Austin. for pardon or
commutation of sentence, Governor
Peabody exercised his pardoning DOW
ers in the case on May 9th, and cum
muted Baeder's sentence to ten years
AS he was sentenced on February 90,
1897 the time allowed for good conduct
made him a free man.
In December, 1896, Baeder shot and
killed Prof. A. H. Austin, a graduate of
the University of Oxford, and man
we'll known in educational circles of
the state, on the street at Central City
for an alleged insult which Baeder
claimed Austin had inflicted on his
wife. According to the story told at
the time, Mr.. and Mrs. Baeder were
living in the house next to the one
occupied by Professor Austin.
Mrs. Baeder strung a clothes line
in front of Austin's window and hung
some clothes on it. Austin asked Mrs
Baeder to take it down, and when she
refused, he cut it down, at the same
time telling her she was no lady. Mrs
Baeder told her husband this, and he
demanded an apology. A war of words
followed and Austin struck Baeder on
the nose, breaking it, as was after
wards learned. Then Baeder drew a
revolver and shot Austin through the
brain, killing him instantly.
Baeder was found guilty of murder
in the second degree and sentenced to
twenty-five years Imprisonment by
Judge La France.
Baeder's petition for executive clem-
ency bore the signatures of nine of the
jurors who had convicted him. 1t was
also stated that Baeder was in the din
ing room of the penitentiary on the
night that Night Captain Rooney was
killed, and rendered service by giving
the alarm at the risk of his own life.
In his own statement Baeder said that
at the time he killed Austin he was
under the influence of morphine and
was scarcely responsible. He is a bar
tender. and his wife and family are
now in this city.
Governor Peabody felt that in view
of the circumstances Baeder had been
punished sufficiently and accordingly
committed his sentence last month.

FILINGS ALLOWED
IN GORE CANON

Denver, June 20.-According to a
dispatch received yesterday by the New
Century Power and Light Company,
the general land Office at Washington
has allowed the filings of the company
in Gore canon in Grand county. The
Moffat road and the New Century COM
pany have been. fighting for the pos
session of this canon for some time.
These filings. approved by the gen.
eral land Office. call for a tunnel in the
canon which is to take the water from
the canon after the great dam has
been built from wall to wall to hold
the water. 1t is thought that these ap-
proved filings of the New Century
company will not interfere with the
Moffat road running through the canon
however, as their filings will also prob
ably be approved. since there are no
others before the general land office
asking for a right OF way for rail
road.
The New Century company has al
ready the right to build its dam, and.
according to the recent approval for
the tunnel, they can now proceed with
their plans, but to stop them the Moffat
company has bought school lands near
the canon which would have to be in
undated in the carrying out of their
reservoir scheme.
Injunctions by both sides are pend
ing before Judge France in Grand
county. one to prevent the construc-
tion OF the dam. and the other to pre-
vent the construction of the railroad.

matter peacably, but II this should fail

Child Labor Case Appe aIed.

Attorney Thomas II. Hood, repre-
senting the Overland Cotton mills.
John l.. Jerome and Dean Sutcliffe. has
filed brief in the Supreme Court
asking that the judgment of the Coun-
ty Court in fining the defendants $50
each for violating the child labor law
be set aside.
The defendants were found guilty
and fined by Judge Lindsey in the
County Court last fall for employing a
child under fourteen years old to
work in the mills. The complaint was
sworn to by o. l.. Tuft, an agent of the
State Humane Society. One error as
signed is in connection with this COM
plant. which reads that the COM
plainant swore to the facts set forth
because of his own personal knowl-
edge. In the brief it is alleged that
Tuft on oath admitted that he knew
only one of the defendants, and that
he had not seen the misdemeanor al
legged. 1t is also alleged that the
statutes covering the cases specify
persons and that corporations are not
mentioned anywhere.
The brief closes by stating that while
the defendants believed that what
ever Judge Lindsey had done in the
case was from the best OF motives and
a desire to be impartial. yet there was
sometimes danger that in looking
after the rights and interests of chill
dren those of others are disregarded."
