United States District Court is now
in session in Las Vegas with Chief

BRITISH GOVERN
MENT INVOLVED
1t is Alleged That an English Non
Union Miner Was Killed at TeIiu-
ride BY Strikers.

Washington, May 12-The British
government has become involved ir
labor troubles in Colorado. 1t is al
legged that Launcelot Collins, a British
subject and non-union miner was killed
at Telluride by the strikers and the case
was reported to the British embassy
here. Sir Mortimer Durand finding
that one of the allegations was that the
man was killed for lack of proper pro-
lection by the authorities, called the
attention of the state department to
the matter. The department in turn
forwarded the note of the ambassador
to the Governor of Colorado. who eX-
planned that owing to the existence of
martial law at Telluride it was not pos
sible to make legal Investigation to
develop satisfactory answer to the
British note. 1t is expected that fur
ther proceedings will be taken when
the labor troubles end in Colorado and
if it should be found that the complaint
is well founded, application will be
made to Congress by the state depart
ment for suitable indemnity for the
killing of Collins.

PREFERRED DEATH
TO IMPRISONMENT
An AIamogordo Lawyer Charged With
Misappropriation Of Funds Com
mits Suicide.

Financial troubles were the cause of
the suicide of c. G. Hartley, an Alamo
gordo lawyer, who came to that city
from South Dakota two years ago.
Several months ago Mr.. Hartley appro-
priated sum of money belonging to
one of his clients evidently with the in
tention of replacing the amount before
it would have to be turned in. This he
was unable to do, however, and the
grand jury found an indictment against
him in the matter. On Saturday eve
ming Sheriff Hunter went to the law
yer's Office to serve the papers on him.
Hartley begged for several days time
in which to be allowed to provide a
bond but the sheriff insisted upon his
going with him, promising that the
matter could be arranged later. Hart
ley left the room a minute for the os
tensible purpose of getting his coat
and hat. Immediately a pistol shot
rang out and it was found that the
lawyer had shot himself through the
head He had evidently made prepa
rations to end his life should the mat
ter come to the worse for several let
| ters were found from him to relatives
and friends. He is survived by a wife
and young son to each of whom he
leaves life insurance amounting to 81,

when the flag itself is used is there any
infraction of the law. The point was
also made that the law was probably
unconstitutiona as it is a direct copy
of the Illinois law which has been de-

RIO H0ND0 SCHEME
1t Is On the List and Will Require An
Expenditure Of Over Quarter Mil
lion Dollars.

Washington, May 12-The depart
nent OF the interior has issued state
ment covering the disposition of the
reclamation fund, apropos of the for
NAL approval by the secretary of the in
terror of new irrigation projects in
California, Oregon, New Mexico and
the Dakotas and other western sec
tions. The statement is as follows:
"These approvals mark practically
the close of the preliminary or tenta
tive stage of reclamation work. The
projects in each state and territory are
now well outlined and provisions made
for all OF the available funds.
During the two years which have
nearly elapsed since the passage of the
reclamation law, efforts have been con-
centrated on general examinations and
comparison of the merits of various
projects these have now been selected
and approved, contingent upon secur-
ing the water rights and lands at reas-
enable cost, and perfecting all details,
partly completed. The situation in
each state and territory is as follows:
improvements STuCTSus
"Arizona-Salt River project, under
consideration at estimated cost of
about 100000
"Callfornia-Yuma project, approved
construction by secretary at cost of
about $3,G00,000.

yolving an expenditure of $2,500,O00.
''Idaho-Minidoka project, for which
about 81, 100000 has been Professionally

cost $27, 100000 and will require for
construction two or three years; they
will reclaim in round numbers 1000, 900
acres of intense cultivation, and should
be capable of supporting population
of 100000 or more persons. The mon
.ey expended in constructing these
works is derived from the disposal of
the public lands. The expenditures
are to be returned by installments to
the reclamation fund and be used over
again in building other works, many of
which are now under preliminary ex-
animation, data being acquired so that
the work can proceed as rapidly as the
money becomes available"
