SAN FRANCISCO, July S.-The
betting on the Jeffries- MunrOe fight
supposed to take place on Aug. q, has

He took things very easily, and never

as king Of the heavyweights.
Then Jeffres began to work, SO
goes the story, but found it impossible
to get into anything like proper fight

Then followed the story of the injur-

BAR FRASER RIVER HATCHERY
"Canucks" Fear Americans Would
Take Mile if Given Inch.

VANCOUVER, B. c., July S.-The
salmon Gamers of British Columbia
and Puget Sound, who are in confer
ence here today concerning modes of
preserving their industry, are glad
to learn that the sockeyes are running
in large numbers off the west coast of
Vancouver Island. Rev. w. ]. Stone,
Methodist missionary to the Nitinaat
Indians, writes from Cloo'ose as fol-
lows:
Indians off the coast are meeting
large quantities of sockeyes, which
they say are bound for the Fraser.
There are good runs here on the Nit
innat, so Gamers may look for a fair
news"
The meetings here of the Fraser
mems Association, while it may do
some good, will not result in a joint
rivera thing the Americans much
desire There is hostility to that act
ion outside of fishery circles, which
cannot be ignored. 1t is considered
impossible for Canadians ever to all
low Americans to get a foothOld on
the Fraser river. They feel, after the
Alaska boundary and other expe-
riences, that if the Americans are Civ
Ell an inch they will take a mile. The
newspapers here, irrespective of par
ty, have joined those in Victoria in
opposing any joint hatcheries, or any
thing of that sort, and in this respect
the press can be said to represent
public opinion.

heart. The Berry woman was sup
posed to be the only person who had
fired revolver at that time and she
was shortly afterward arrested, but
evidence showed that the revolver
twice before had been fired, it is sup
posed by the man who gave it to the

MONTANA THUG ADMITS CRIME
Truth "Sweated" From Slayer of r.
Hannah of Billings.

BUTTE, Mont, July SO. O. Mo-
posse just across the Montana from
tier in Wyoming in Jail at Red Lodge
under vigorous "sweating' by officers
confessed that he was one of the two
robbers who held up nine gamblers
in the Owl saloon at Billings Friday
night and that he was the one who
killed Sergeant of Police Robert ].
Hannah, while they were making
their escape from the saloon.
Mosier says he carried a shotgun
and fired the charge into Hannah's
side at close range. After killing
Sergeant Hannah, Mosier says he and
Grady fled to Grady's home, where
they were later put to flight by
Sheriff George Hubbard. He says he
shot at Hubbard and at Mayor Fred
Foster, who stood guard outside the
house while the sheriff entered Mo-
sier declares he left Grady after they
jumped from the second-story win
dow of the Grady home, and that he
has no idea as to his whereabouts.
Mosier was making for the Bad
Lands of Wyoming when Potter and
his posse surprised him in a cabin. In
his confession he revealed the loca-
ton of one of their caches, and sher-
if Potter last night recovered $210.50
from beneath rock. This was the
sum taken from the roulette wheel.
Mosier will be kept in the Red Lodge
Jail for fear of lynching should he be
taken back to Billings.
