A special operative of the Secret
Service division U. S. Treasury is in
the city He came here to get a des
cription of and photograph of DIR.
Ray, who is in Jail on the charge OF
passing 81 notes raised to 500 notes
He secured a photograph of the mar
Saturday afternoon. The prisoner was
taken to Rays photograph gallery
and Tom Hinson took two three
quarter pictures He was returned to
Jail and the detective put him through
a severe cross-examination and got a
minute description of him.
Ray is very intelligent looking and
it is thought that he is wanted in sew
eral places for raising money before
he operated in this city. Raised bills
were passed at Pecos and Ell Paso,
and it is thought that he is the man
who did it. From evidence that has
been secured by the authorities it is
known that he had operated exten-
sively or was preparing to do so. He
appears to be about 35 years of age
but claims that he is only 81. The
bad bill was passed here on Yee Yick
a Chinaman at the Oriental restaur-
ant. At his preliminary examination
here Ray confessed to raising the bill.
He escaped from here and was caught
at Portales, April 9th by Sheriff Hlg-
gins and has been in Jail here since.
He will be taken to Socorro for trial
Following is the description of the
supposed celebrated criminal: Height
5 feet 10 inches, blue eyes, pallid com
plexion. light brown hair gray in the
front, wears number eight shoe, num-
Der glove, number hat, weight
1870, dark red birth mark on right
ear. scar on lip. Wore grey striped
coat and vest. with grey striped trou-
sers of different pattern. He says he
studied medicine but never gradual
ed and his legitimate occupation was
as a book-keeper He refused to tell
the school he attended He says that
he was born in the east, and when
questioned further admitted that his
native state was Ohio, but refused to
tell the town of his birth. He claims
that he recently came here from Ma
zatlan, state of Sinaloa, Mexico. and
that there he was engaged as book
keeper. He denied the allegation that
he was a cigarette fiend. and said he
, smoked cigars when he could get the
money He also said that he never
drank intoxicating liquors except a
glass of beer occasionally. He claims
that he was never arrested before
in his life, but says that he had been
inside Old Mexico jails as visitor
During the examination he did not
volunteer any answers. but answered
all of the questions of the operative
without hesitation 1t was explained
to him that the Jail at SocOrrO was
fright, and that he had better stay
in the Roswell jail as long as posi-
BILE. During the examination some one
remarked, He will never get on on
the insanity plea. He is the most in
telligent looking man in the room"

The Patton opera house on Main
street was consumed by fire yesterday
morning at o'clock, and mass OF
ruins is all that remains of the play
house The building took fire on the
north side near the front, and was
first discovered by some campers in
Webb's wagon yard on the opposite
side of the street. Mrs. Patton and
daughter Ruby were sleeping in the
building and barely escaped with
their lives. Mrs. Patton managed to
get dressed, but did not even save
a hat Miss Patton grabbed some OF
her wearing apparel and escaped in
her night clothes The origin of the
fire is unknown, but it is the opinion
of the fire chief and the citizens gen.
orally that it was the work of a fire.
bug.
The fire company arrived on the
scene very promptly after the alarm
was turned in, but the building col
lapsed twenty minutes after the fire
was discovered and the efforts of the
department were vain. The fire was
confined to the building. and the ex
cellent work of the fire boys saved
the nearby houses.
Mrs. Patton and daughter had liv-
ing rooms in the front of the building
on the second floor. and all of their
belongings were totally destroyed.
There was no insurance on the build
ing held by Mr. Patton. but the Bur-
ton-Lingo Lumber company had $4,000
insurance on the same. They held
mechanics lien on the building. Mr..
Patton did not have a cent of insur-
ance on his household goods or any
thing else. The Ullery Furniture Co.
occupied the north room on the low
er floor as a ware-room. Their loss
was $4,000 with only $1,000 insurance.
The south room on the ground floor
was occupied by the M. E. church.
$500, with no insurance.
The loss on the entire building
and contents is about $4,000, with
only $4,000 insurance. The trees in
the vicinity of the building were bad
ly scorched.
Mrs Patton and daughter were ta-
ken to the home of their friend Mrs.
J. A. Graham and are still there. Mr..
Patton is living at Ell Paso, and their
plans for the future are not known.
Every effort possible will be made to
apprehend the guilty ones if the fire
is incendiary, and it is the sentiment
of many people that if the fire-bt.g
is captured that he be strung to a
telephone pole.
About the same time the fire was
discovered in the opera house the
Roswell Drug & Jewelry Co. building
on Main street was also discovered
to be on fire. The fire started in the
hall way on the second floor in box
of trash. The fire was extinguished
by Photographer Wilkinson who has
his gallery on the second floor OF the
building. This was also believed tO
be the work of fire-bng.

and alternates to the Chicago conven

for governor and lieutenant governor
and other state officers and supreme
court judges.
The contest for nominations on the
state ticket is one of the most inter.
esting and at the same time one OF
the most complicated that Indiana
has seen in years Even the best pos
ted politicians today were unwilling
to make a prediction on the person
mel of the state ticket-except that
part of it that is not to be contested.
There are four candidaes in the race
for the gubernatorial nomination. AS
named in the order OF. their supposed
strength they are J. Frank Hanly, w.

and Warren G. Sayre.
Hanly of Tippecanoe county has
not been prominent in Indiana poll
tics very many years, but since he
made his advent he has moved at a
pace that has distanced many of the
old timers in the popular eye. He is
a lawyer by profession and entered
politics as a diversion. In the race
for the gubernatOrial nomination he
leads by nose w. l.. Taylor of this
city. Taylor has been attorney gen
eral of the state for four years and
is widely and favorably known among |
the Republicans of Indiana. Like Han |
ly, he is lawyer, and man of pop |
ular presence.
Judge Penfield whose candidacy |
did not appear to cut much of fig |
ure early in the game, has forged to
the front with rapid strides during |
the last month or so and is conceded |
on all sides to be a factor of large |
