FOOTBALL SURVIVES
 IN MODIFIED FORM
The Game, Though, Had the Narrow
 Margin of Three.

New York, Dec. S.--The advocates of intercollegiate football won a vic tory at the conference of thirteen col -leges and universities in this city to- day, when an amended resolution de- claring that the game should not be abolished, but should be reformed, was carried by vote of fifteen to eighteen. A committee composed of representa- tiVes of Columbia, West Point, and New York University was appointed to draw up a plan of reform.
 It was expected that the rules com mittee will be requested to make such change as would lessen the danger to players and make certain the detection of foul and brutal play. The confer ence also suggested that football be- tween school boy teams should be prevented by the educational authori- ties, owing to the immaturity of the players.

 We are here to tell you" said Gen. eral Pritchard, that seventy-five per cent of the people of New Mexico do not wish statehood if the condition of its being obtained means a merger with Arizona. We think New Mexico is en- titled to admission to the union on it's own merits and the present territorial boundaries ought not be changed af- ter such admission. Years ago We were divorced from Arizona and a re- marriage that is against the will of both parties at interest should not be forced from Washington.

MT. Ryan said after his purchase E. H. Hartman de- sired to share in the purchase but Ryan refused Harrimans offer. Ryan declined to answer questions as to what was said in the conversation be- tween him and MT. Hartman. MT. Hughes pressed for a reply to the questions in this line but Ryan stead fastly refused to tell although Chair man Armstrong in the name of the committee directed him to reply.

 TO HER FATE
Mrs. Rogers the MurdereSS
 Was Hanged
The End Of a Tragedy in Which the Whole Country Has Been Deeply Interested.

Windsor, Vt, Dec. S.-Without a tremor and without a word, Mrs. Mary Mabel Rogers today marched to her death on the gallows at the state prison here and paid the penalty of murdering her husband, Marcus Rog- CTS, at Bennington, on August 13 1902.
 To all appearances, Mrs. Rogers was the calmeSt person in the chamber of death. She faced her end with the same stoical indifference that had marked her demeanor ever since her arrest, more thar three years ago. Greatly to the relief of those officials who were assisting in the execution of the sentence, Mary Rogers last hour was remarkably free from har- rowing incidents. There were no sen sational incidents in connection with the hanging.
 The crime for which Mrs. Mary Ma bel Rogers was sentenced to death was the murder of her husband Marcus Rogers, at Bennington Vt, August IS, 1902. At the time the crime was com mitted, Mrs. Rogers was only nineteen years old, but she had been separated from her husband for some time and was desirous of marrying a young man named Maurice Knapp. On the day of the murder Marcus Rogers went to Bennington to visit his wife, and that night she arranged to meet him in the woods near the Walloomiac river. While caressing him, she induced him to allow her to bind his hahds, ,sand while ne was powerless she chforo- formed him. In this she was aided by Leon Pernam, a half-witted boy, who was the son of the woman with whom she boarded. Another woman, Estella Bates, was present.
 After chloroforming him, Perham and Mrs. Rogers rolled the body into the river, where it was found the next day. In order to divert suspicion, the woman wrote a note to which sne signed her husbands name, giving the

Ex-Governor Bell, as soon as he heard of the exc cution of Mrs. Rogers was carried out. said: "I am much relieved that there was no hitch and that the sentence of the court w;is carried out. It was d disagreeable duty l was called upon to perform, and. notwithstanding my pri- vate views regarding the case, have acted on my oath 8s chief executive and I believe for the interests of the public good, according to the law abiding sentiment of the state.

There is no question: said MT Bursum, 'but that our attorney gener- al has correctly stated the sentiment of the people. At the utmost not over one-third of our citizens favor joint statehood. This was demonstrated in the overwhelming defeat of Hon. B. S Rodey, the former New Mexican dele gate in congress, who was an advocate of joint statehood. The entire history of the American nation shows that the tendency has been toward a division of states as in the case of the Dakotas rather than towards consolidation Texas, it is true, seems a present eN- ception, but Texas had been a SOW ereign state public prior to its admiS- sion as a state and when it came into the union there was a stipulation thas it's territory might at any time be di- vided into four separate states.

 They found telephone receivers which are connected with a transmit ter in the pulpit, directly in line with the Presbyterian sound waves as they issue from the pastors mouth. All that is necessary to do is to set a lit tie switch lever when the occupant of the pew wants to hear the speaker more plainly, and the necessary con nection with "centrar' is made, "cen- tral" being the pulpit.

THE SENATE EMBARRASSED
The Death of Senator Mitchell Raises
 Delicate Question.

Washington, D. C., Dec. S.-News ci the death of Senator Mitchell, of Ore gon, occasiOned great surprise at the capitol. His illness had been of such recent date and so little was known of it that notice of his death came to the senate at the funeral services and at raised delicate question as to tEe duty of the senators toward their late associate.
 Ordinarily when a member dies a committee is appointed to represent the senate at teh funeral services and at the earliest opportunity the colleague of the deceased member formally givo notice of the death and announces that later he will make more extended rs- marks. The senate then adjourned out of respect to the memory of the de- ceased.
 After numerous conferences today between prominent senators and Ser geant-at-Arm Ransdell the point was raised as to whether the senate would be warranted in following the usual program in the case of Senator Nit chell. It was argued that at the tima of his death he stood convicted of an offense under the federal laws and in violation of his oath as a senator of tha United States.
 On the other hand it was pointed out that the senate had not been notified officially of his conviction and that the highest court had not yet passed upon the question of his guilt or inno- cence. At a late hour today Vice President Fairbanks had not appointed the usual committee and the impress sion prevailed that he would postpone the action until the senate convened on Monday.

impression that he had committed sui eide. Immediately after the murder Mrs. Rogers endeavored to collect her husbands life insurance, amounting to $500, and also made arrangements to purchase furniture for the house, where she expected to live when she had married Knapp. A few days after the murder Mrs. Rogers, Perham and the Bates woman were arrested. Per ham made a complete confession and both he and Mrs. Rogers were found guilty of murder in the first degree. Perham was sentenced to imprison- ment for life, while the sentence of the court in Mrs. Rogers case was death on the gallows.
 Mrs Rogers was pronounced dead by the prison officials at 1:27 o'clock. The execution occurred after the wo- man had twice been reprieved. Only a comparatively few persons witness ed the hanging, the number being re- stricted under tke Vermont law.
 THE LAST HOPE GONE.
 A telephone message from White River Junction to the state prison here sent by Attorney Mccarthy, repre- senting Mrs. Rogers, to the effect that Governor Bell had declined to grant a reprieVe indicated that the last pOssi- bility of interference with the eXecu- tiOn of the woman set for today van ished. The final arrangements for carrying out the death sentence was then made. Aside from the presence of the usual number of deputy sher- ifs, a large number of newspaper correspondents, the town of Windsor presented it's usual aspect. Three newspaper men were the only ones permitted to see the execution or per mitted to enter the prison.

RYAN TO BE FORGED TO TALK.

New York, Dec. S.-The legislative committee which is Investigating life insurance matters today determined to send to District Attorney Wm. T. Jerome q request that he institute pro ceedings against Thomas F. Ryan, the fnancier and owner of the majority of the stock of the Equitable Life Assur- ance society, to punish MT. Ryan for refusing to answer questions before the committee. MT. Ryan had refused to answer when asked what F.. H. liar riman, president of the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific railroads, had said to him when Mr. Hartman tried to induce him to share his control of the Equitable society with MT. Harri- man.
 MT. Ryan was asked whether Mir Hartman had threatened that results disastrous to MT. Ryan's interest would occur or if MT. Hartman had told him that some action would be taken by the state legislature or any officer of the government unless MT. Ryan con sented to share his stock with him. Acting on advice of his attorney. Pau! D. Cravath, MT. Ryan declined to an swer those questions, although Sena- tor Armstrong, chairman of the com mittee, directed him to do so. Mir. Ryan, however, did answer one ques- ton by saying that MT. Hartman did not tell him at that time that there would be legislative investigation Of the life insurance business unless he gave up part of the Hyde stock.
 MT. Ryan had already testified that he secured control of the Equitab!e society by paying James H. Hyde $2... 60O,000 for 502 shares of the total 1000 shares of the society.
