John Hammell. OF this city, has
announced himself as a candidate
for the Office OF sheriff, subject TO
the approval Of the democratic
convention. Other candidates
mentioned for the democratic
nomination are Hez Potter, Char
les Baldwin, marshal Of Rocky
Ford; John Howe and X. N.
Kirkpatrick. On the republican
ticket c. L. SeeIey would probably
take the nomination il il was hand
ed TO him. and il is said that Geo.
W. Meador. Of Rocky Ford. has
aspirations. @
Otero county will elect state
senator this fall, the county being
senatorial district in itself BY a
law of the last legislature. J. n.
Crowley has aspirations for the
nomination.; and T. F.
Godding. j.. and John Madigan.
the popular Santa Fe engineer. are
talked OF by republicans. Candi
dates for representative appear to
be rather scarce on both sides.
The mayor Of Newdale, who was
recently mentioned by the TRIBUNE
as an available candidate for
county commissioner from the
Rocky Ford district, says that he
had not thought Of running for
county commissioner. but might
be induced to take the matter un-
der advisement. The mayor has
thought something OF coming out
for governor this fall, but says he
has made no definite arrange
ments. The dictator OF the Rocky
Ford Gazette does not approve Of
the mayor, and whatever he says
seems to be law in Rocky Ford,
especially in city affairs.

fall. The only name we have
heard menti oned as a republican
candidate is that OF John w. Fish

MIR. Fisher could be prevailed up

was tricked into making the loan by

son of a Pittsburg millionaire. His

SO said Mr.. Beckwith. bank president

"A certain banker. who was himself
overloaded with her worthless securi-
ties. was a.f much responsible for the
crash of the Oberlin bank as amy one
else. He knew in his heart that Mrs.
Chadwick was a fake. and he wanted
her to raise enough from me to pay
him some of the zone she owed him.
She showed me that she had on deposit

ST 900, 600 in cash. Since the failure. my
inquiries have shown hat she really
did possess this cash. but She has
drawn it all. She ever now has it hid

For il is the frankly expressed opill-

Moreover. there is bitter irony in the

Story is Unbelievable.

Oberlin, o., Dec. 13.-rhe confession
of President Beckwith. of the wrecked
Citizens National bank, now in posses
sion OF the federal authorities. is Il
story so startling with relation to the
monumental transactions of Mrs. Chad
wick as to be almost unbelievable

that the means by which Mrs. had
wick secured immense loans was Il

hands of the banker that the Citizens

Chadwick to Beckwith was to the eff

In consideration therefor Beckwith and

Was Il relative of Andrew Carnegie.
The written confession of BeckWith
goes into the detail of the explanation
mad by Mrs. Chadwick as TO the man
ller in which the estate was then being
handled.
The Wade Park Banking company of
Cleveland was used simply as n de
pository for the securities, according
to the ale the Womaa made the bank
ers believe. The estate was said by
Mrs. Chadwick to be in the hands of
three trustees, all New York men. The

Mrs. Chadwick said she could not
get hold of the money except through
Baldwin. whom the banker now be-
lieves to be a mythical per-
son. Baldwin attended to all the
business OF handling the interest from
the. bonds, and turned it over TO Mrs.
Chadwick as it became due.
The bankers We're told the yearly in
come was $1a0.000. In latio to the
Endorsement of the notes by Beckwith
and Spear. the story from the banker
goes On to relate that the notes were
Endorsed only as IA last recourse in a
desperate chase for funds. He con-
fessed that he had intended to attempt
to negotiate oans upon the note, out
his nerve failed him. The Endorsements
were put on TO cake the paper more
bankable.
The confession practically tells the
story of Now the Oberlin bank had
been used as a clearing house for Mrs.
Chadwick's manipulations.
