himself and $50 each for his two

Paris, Nov. 10.-The French gov
ernmeht has recognized the de fac
to government of the republic of
Panama.
The instructions forwarded by
Foreign Minister Dslcasse to the
French consul at Panama author
ICES him to have relations with the
new government. The instructions
are substantially the same as those
sent from Washington to the Unit
| ed States consul al Panama, and
will have the effect of giving the
same recognition of the new regime
as the United States has already
given.
According to the strict require
ments Of the protocol governing the
recognition of new sovereignty, a
formal letter must be addressed by
the new government to France and
the other powers notifying them
that it is completely established.
The efhcial response to this letter
| will constitute a formal recognition
of the latter. The formalities may
becarried on by mail later, but the
instructions to the consul are con-
sidered as establishing the position
of the French government as being
similar to that of the United States.

A BOY MURDERER.
BOY OF SEVENTEEN SHOOTS
HIS FATHER THROUGH
THE HEART.
Antonio Bruno, in a Fit Of Anger,
Threatened to Kill His Family

Placerville, Cal, Nov. 10.-An-
tonic Bruno, So years old, mer-
chant Of Pleasant Valley. a small
town east of this city, was killed by
Louis Bruno, his son, after a busi-
ness quarrel, about noon today. The

eral merchandise store, of which
Antonio Bruno was proprietor.

Deputy Sheriff DslIas Bosquit, Dis
,rict Attorney G. E. Peters, and
Coroner c. P. Winchell drove at
once to the scene of the deed. A
jury was empaneled and an inquest
was held this evening. The lesti.
m'ony at the inquest showed that
the Staying was done in the road in
front of the Bruno store. The faith
er and son had an alteration, and
it is said that the father had threat
ened to kill the entire family some
days previously. The father drove
his eldest son from the store with a
koife. His threats to kill the en-
Tire family alarmed the young man
to whom they were made. He got
a pistol, and, returning, opened fire
on his father. The first shot pierced
the heart, and the old man fell.
The con continued firing, but none
Of the succeeding four shots took
effect.
There were but three eyewitr esses
to the affair. A brother of the ac-
cused man was one, and Nick Fer
retta and a man named Slavin we're
the ether two. The jury, after de-
lliberating, rendered a verdict of
death by gunshot wounds inflicted
BY Louis Bruno with homicidal in
tent. The latter was placed under
arrest and was brought to this city
by Deputy Sheriff Bosquit and
lodged in jail. The dead merchant
was ain old resident of this county
and was possessed of large timber
and merchandise interests.
