Denver, March 14.-Attorney Cen
eral Miller has returned from Wash
ington, D. c.. where he went to attend
the sessions of the commission taking
testimony In the Kansas Colorado wa
ter suit He was away over two weeks.
Mr.. Miller says the commission is now
in Arkansas, but that the members are
expected to arrive here about next Sat
urday to continue the hearing. Two
important witnesses will be heard in
Denver for the government. These are
Elwood Mead, expert for the govern
ment in irrigation matters, and Profess
sor Schlichter of the government SER
vice. The latter spent large amount
of time last year in making investiga-
tions regarding the underfiow of the
Arkansas river.
After the government closes, more
testimony will be taken in behalf Of
Colorado, and the commission is likely
to spend considerable time here.

CHASING kUR0PATkIK

March 13-While General Kuropat-
kin has apparently succeeded in saw

possible. his losses In men, ammuni-
ton and commissariat supplies In the
battle Of Mukden are far greater than
earlier reports indicated, and even that

In extricating from the positions

danger.
The Japanese generals. realizing that
with a little more speed they could
have inflicted crushing defeat on the
Russian army after the battle of Lao
Yang, determined not TO allow such an

Russian forces.
While a small portion of Kuropat-
kin's army has reached Tie pass, the
greater part Of those who escaped from
the battle Of Mukden are still strug-

between twelve and sixteen miles from
their goal. with the japanese, flushed
with victory and reinforced by fresh
men, harassing, them from all sides.
Even should the remnant of the
army reach Tie pass, It is hardly pos
sible for It to make stand against the
overwhelming force opposing it, and
especially as the Russians must be
worn out and weakened by the loss OF
men, guns and ammunition.
1t is more likely that Kuropatkin will
fall back to Hardin with what he can
save and wait there for the reinforce
ments that st. Petersburg has already
promised him. A possible obstacle to
the plan is General Kawamura's army,
which has not yet been located, and
which may also be heading for the
northern capital.

shis=ler's Victims.

Denver, March 1s-At late hour
last night it was reported at the Emer-
gency hospital that Captain Of Police
Bohanna and Police Surgeon Dulin
were improving. DR.. Dulin was struck
by three bullets from the rifle of Shiss-
Ter and the bone of his right leg was
shattered below the knee. Another
passed through the calf of : his right
leg. The third bullet ploughed through
the fleshy part OF his hip. The bullet
which splintered the bone of. the right
leg probably will cause DR.. Dulin to
be cripple for life, as 1t is now
thought that amputation will be neces-
sary. The injuries of Captain Bohanna
are painful but not serious.
AT the hospital last night 1t was
stated that there was little doubt but
that both the injured men would re-
cover.

SEVERELY PUNISHED.
Two Denver Election Thieves Get Fem
itentiary Sentences.

Denver, March 12-In the District
Court yesterday Judge Booth NJ. Ma
lone sentenced Michael Dowd and Pc
ter Miller, each of them, to from three
to five years in the penitentiary for
crimes against the ballot. These men
.w@re convicted of election crimes in
Ward z. Precinct 2, at the polling place
at 4330 Josephine street. Theirs was
the celebrated case where the light
was put out and 31S fraudulent ballots
substituted.
The two men who appeared before
the Supreme Court in the first con-
tempt case arrogant and smiling, were
yesterday hailed before Judge Malone.
pale and trembling. Their bravado had
been broken by confinement in the
crowded Jail and knowledge of what
was to follow.
Judge Malone addressed the men for
twenty minutes. Among other things
he said: you may have thought that
you were not only safe and secure, but
that You would also be rewarded. You
may have even been promised both
rewards and security. You may have
thought that what you did was not
bad, but smart. But assure you that
it was not smart and that it was bad
very bad indeed.
You were not content TO simply
stuff the ballot box, but you stole and
destroyed all of the 318 ballots cast
in your precinct. Your conduct was
bold, brazen and raw. II you had
stolen 1913 of money or other common
chattels, you would be felon and IL
able to punishment in the Penitentiary
for long series of years.
when you stole those 31s ballots.
vn iv, ;ri@ g.,
worse crime than the stealing of 1918
would or could be.
when you stole those 31S ballots,
you deprived 31S American citizens of
the most sacred right given them un-
der the law, and you endangered the
liberty of every man, woman and child
In this community.
young men, there is no politics in
this thing. A man who steals ballots
Is not Republican or Democrat. He
S criminal and thief and bad and
dangerous one. This is not politics.
No party which practices or knowingly
profits by election frauds can long sue
ceed or long endure.
THE man who puts up such Job
and furnishes the money therefor, is
as bad or worse than the man who
takes the money and does the Job 1t
is time that election thievery and cleo
tion frauds were stopped in this COM
munity. Violators of election laws
will find that there are some courts
which are not in sympathy with crimes
against the elective franchise or with
those guilty of them.''
The sentence in each case is as fol-
lows: "That you be confined in the
State Penitentiary Of the state of Col
orado. at hard labor, for period Of
not less than three nor more than five
years. 1t is further ordered. adjudged
and decreed, that you pay one half Of
all the costs expended or incurred by
the people in this prosecution, to be
taxed. and that execution issue there
