Colorado State Institutions.

Denver, June 17.-Secretary Hagar
of the State Board of Charities and
Corrections, in discussing the recent
visit of the board to the state institu-
lions, said yesterday that the thing
that most impressed them was the in
ability of the state to take care Of its
insane. The last two legislatures have
been generous and the new buildings
at the institution are only recently
completed, but they are not enough.
The day the board was there there
were 761 inmates, of whom more than
700 are declared to be incurable. The
place is worked to its capacity right
now and the county hospitals are full
of persons who should be at the asy-
lum.
The condition at the State Peniten-
tiary was satisfactory. in so far as the
management is concerned. There are
721 prisoners. But two were in the
hospital the day the board visited;
these had some slight ailments. This
is remarkable. considering that the
men have to be confined SO closely.

CAPITAL PUNISHMENT
ANDREWS AND ARNOLD HANGED
Murderers of Mrs. Youngblood at Den
yer Expiate Their Crime on
the Scaffold.

Canon City. Colo, June 17.-Fred
Arnold and Newton Andrews were
hanged last night in the execution
house of the Colorado State Peniten-
tiary in the presence of thirteen wit
nesses. The execution was quiet and
successful in every detail.
At S:22 O'Clock Newton Andrews
mounted the scaffold, dressed in a
plain black suit and wearing a button
hole bouquet of roses gathered from
the penitentiary garden.
Although somewhat weak and trem-
bling, he stepped upon the platform
without faltering-
When asked If he had any statement
to make, he replied that he had, and in
a low but distinct voice, slightly trem-
bling with emotion. he said:
"Gentlemen-This is my last state
ment. 1 expect to die any moment.
What / say you can put down as abso-
lutely true. On the occasion of the
death OIL Mrs. Youngblood, Arnold, Pc
tiers and l went to dance at Peters
burg. l was drunk that night and lay
in the bottom of the buggy in stupid
condition.
when we got to the Youngblood
house the other boys pulled me out
and we went into the house. l did not
realize what was going on, but soon
heard shots fired. l pulled my gun
and fired once through the ceiling.
That was the only shot / fired. After
ward Arnold told me that he had laid
out in the Youngblood yard close to
the house with gun. waiting for the
woman to come out, and that he ex-
pected to kill her"
After making this statement he added
that he had nothing further to say.
Immediately the black cap was
placed, the moose was adjusted and
while the chaplain commended the soul
of Andrews to his Maker in an adjoin-
ing room the water was already trick
ling from a bucket which in another
minute would release the great weight
which would jerk the body of Andrews
into eternity.
When the weight dropSed the boys
body shot three feet into the air and
his neck was instantly broken.
After hanging for thirty minutes life
was pronounced extinct by the three
attending physicians. and the body was
cut down.
About ten minutes after the body of
Andrews was cut down, Arnold was led
out. He strobe upon the platform
with alacrity, never losing his nerve
for an instant.
When asked if he had any statement
to make he said No" and positively
refused to say anything further.
At 9:07 o'clock Arnold was launched
into eternity in exactly the same man.

His neck was instantly broken and
his body was allowed to hang fifty
minutes, when, life being pronounced
extinct, it was cut down and removed
to the penitentiary morgue, where the
body of Andrews had preceded it.

Denver, June 19.-Since he became
state labor commissioner two months
ago E. V. Brake has had 112 com
plants filed in his office, which have
nearly all been adjusted satisfactorily.

There is much trouble, also. with en-
ployment agents. since. unhappily, n
good many unworthy persons go into
that business because 1t offers excel

Brake had very aggravated claim OF
this kind. An agent attempted to ship

cure legal services in n manner of his
own. He has made an arrangement

GRAND DUKE RESIGNS.
Relieved From Position as Head of
Russian NAVY,

st. Petersburg, June 16, 1920 a. H.
The sensational announcement was
made shortly before midnight that
Grand Duke Alexis. the high admiral
who is an uncle of the Emperor, and
Admiral Avellan, head of the Russian
admiralty department, had resigned.
This announcement was followed a
few minutes later by an official re-
script relieving the grand duke of the
supreme direction of the navy, which
he had held since the days of the EN-
peror's father, Alexander III. when
Russia resolved to enter the lists as
first-class sea power and to build up
great navy, the remnants of which
were destroyed in the battle of the Sea
of Japan.
Although from time to time since the
war began there have been rumors
that the grand duke would retire on
account of the savage criticisms, not
to use harder terms, directed against
the administration of the navy, es-
pecially in the construction of ships,
the announcement of his resignation
came like bolt out of the blue. 1t was
not preceded by any of the rumors
which usually give warning of such an
act.
1t was felt, even in quarters where
charges OF corruption were not enter
tanned. that 1t would be unwise to en-
trust the building of the navy to the
hands which were responsible for the
hapless fleets of the past.

Uncle SANS prummers.

Washington, June 20.=The Depart
ment of Commerce and Labor has com
pleted preparations for sending five
special agents abroad to investigate

promoting the foreign commerce of the
United States. The five agents Sc
lected are Prof. Lincoln Hutchinson,
University of California; Charles M.
Pepper, Harry L. Barrill. Raymond f.
Crist and DIR. Edward Bedloe.
AS the appropriation is only $780,

fields OF investigation in order that the
best results may be obtained for pre-
sentation to Congress early in the APP
preaching session. Messrs. Burrill
and Crist will go to the Orient Pro-
fessor Hutchinson will go to South
America. and already has entered upon
his work He will visit all the sea-
ports of the Atlantic and Pacific coast
of that continent. Mr.. Pepper will go

Venezuela, British, Dutch and French
Guiana.
1t is expected that the investigation
will be completed by the close of the
present year and that all of the agents
will have their final reports ready for
Congress in January.
Secretary Metcalf has prepared de-
tailed instructions for the agents,
which require them to make full inyes-
legations into American trade with the
countries to be visited, what proper
tion of the entire trade Is shared by
the United States and what methods
may be adopted to increase Its volume.

Work OF surveying the line between
Idaho and Montana is progressing
rapidly. The engineers expect To
make the Nez perces trail today.
II. B. Carpenter, general surveyor
of the United States, has charge Of
the work. and regrets that owing to
the bad weather and the rough nat
ure OF the country, the work has not
progressed as rapidly as IL might
have. The line follows the water
shed between the Clearwater and BIT
ter Root rivers. Some people think
the line follows the top OF the range,
but this Is a mistake The line does
not cross any OF the mountain
streams. but goes to the source OF
them and crosses on the watershed.
The line will run TO where the Bitter
Root range makes junction with
the Rocky Mountains and on the
summit until II reaches the Yellow
stone National Park. IL has beer
stated that the survey would reqn'r'
