MAY NOT BE THE
MEN WANTED
Caldwell and Fraughton Likely to
Prove an Abb.
QUESTIONED BY LEF0RS
DETECTIVE DOUBTS THEIR BE-
ING THE CODY ROBBERS.
Especial to The HeraId)

I ERNAL, Utah, Feb. 27-Sheriff
Fenton of Big Horn county, Wyo-
ming, and Joseph Lafors. deputy
United States marshal for the southern
district of Wyoming, are here for the
purpose of further Identifying Caldwell
and Fraughton as the men who held up
the bank at Cody Lafors is the detec-
tive who gathered the evidence upon
which Tom Horn, the slayer of Willie
Nichols, was convicted. Lafors has put
in the entire day with the two men and
took each one into a room alone and
put them through rigid course of
questioning. After making every effort
to draw the men out. he gave it as his
opinion tonight that Caldwell and
Fraughton are not the men who held
up the Cody bank. Sheriff Fenton in
clines to the same view.
Firm in His Belief.
w. L. Waits, who has positively
identified the two men, still remains
firm in his belief that they are the men.
He is especially positive concerning
Caldwell. Lafors claims to have known
of the whereabou of the men who
held up the bank in the fore part of
December. The date that Caldwell and
FraughtOn confessed to have stolen the
saddle, for which they were arrested
here, was Dec. 13, and Lafors believes
NAissN NiAN AiASiA tOAid ilDl nave IGdCAet8
here from where he knew of them by
that time: Both men gave the names
of citizens of Wyoming by whom they
claimed they could account for their
whereabouts at the date of the Cody
affair. The detectives state that nei-
Their made any damaging confession,
and il they are the men wanted they
are the coolest ones he ever ran against
in his fifteen years experience.
Will Probably Be Held.
In view OF the alleged confession
made to Thomas Labrum and the posi-
tive statement of Waits, the men will
probably be taken to Wyoming where
their identity can be established. 1t is
claimed beyond question that Sheriff
Fenton is armed with requisition papers
for the two men, and tonight il looks as
if an arrangement will be arrived at
by which the men can be taken to VVyo-
ming. Sheriff Preece will be guided
however, by instructions from District
Attorney D. D. Houtz, who has wired
that Judge Booth has refused to lease
the men from his jurisdiction. This
matter may be satisfactorily arranged
tonight. LafOrS, the detective came
here at the request of the Wyoming
governor. Sheriff Fenton states thar
therewill be no trouble over the reward
should the men prove on further inves-
tigatiOn to be the right men. He has
expressed the opinion that Sheriff Hor-
ton has no valid claim to the reward

Washington's Wheat Crop.

There is nothing in the latest re-
ports received at the department of
agriculture which tends to diminish
the midsummer prospect that the 1905
wheat crop of the state of Washing
ton will be from 100000 to $4,000
600 bushels, states a Washington, d.
c., report. The October estimate of
spring wheat in the state gives the
yield per acre at 225 bushels, which is
about four bushels to the acre larger
than the estimated yield of 1904 These
figures, although official, are prelim-
mary in character, and are subject
to revision next December after a
more careful examination of the har-
vest has been made

ference with the naval officials at

Charge $4,000 Jews Have Thus Been

Paris, Nov. S.-Persky, the well
known translator of Maxim Gorkey S
works, who is now in Berlin, writes
to Aurore:
"A friend of mine, a doctor at Kief
writes that $4,000 Jews have been
massacred and that 1000 women and
children have been outraged and
strangled. The massacres are the
work of the government.
"Boukoff, leader of the reactionaries
in Moscow, declares he had received
orders openly to massacre Jews.
Nachico, reactionary leader at Kief, de-
clared that a member of the imperial
family is leading the movement. The
police organize mobs, distribute vodka
to them and point out the houses of
Jews. Cossacks share the booty and
shoot those who try to escape"
