CHAPPO'S NECK SAVED
His Sentence Yesterday COMMITTED to
Imprisonment for Life.

Governor Kibbey yesterday cOmmut-
ed to imprisonment for life the sentence
of death passed upon "ChappO" Eredias
by the district court of COchise county
more than a year ago. It viii be re-
membered that Eredias who was Their
a boy of sixteen was arrested with two
other Mexicans, both much older for
the murder of Arthur Wight a former
sheriff OF Cochise county and then
peace officer at the Black Diamond
mine where trouble between the men
and the mine owners had sprung up.
The two older men We're tried first
One of them was found guilty of muir

fenced TO imprisonment for life; the
second man Wtas found esstfEty Of man
slaughter and got the extreme SEN
tence. ten years. Another jury found
Chappo guilty of murder in the first
degree and he was sentenced to De
hanged.
The judgment of the lower court was
affirmed by the supreme court. Dis

knew of no way unless the prisoner
could make some arrangement with
the Los Angeles officers by wire.
ThereupOn Greenbaum wired his sug-
gestion to Chief Auble.
y little later in the day the marshal
received the following message from
Mr. Aubla: Have your district at
torney prepare and get Greenbaum to
sign waiver of requisitiOn. Cannot
settle without coming here. Answer
if signed
Whether Greenbaum will sign such
a document or not will be learned this
morning. If he refuses he will be held
pending extradition and the only effect
will be that having given the Los An
geIes officers all the trouble he could
they will be less inclined to deal len
iently with him Though there is no
knowledge here of the details of Green
baum's crime there is a belief thai the
fifteen dollar check for the issuance of
which he was arrested, is but one Of
several and that the crime is one that
cannot very Well be settled out of

trict Attorney Flanagan of Cochlse
county before his election had been the
attorney for Chappo and was unTemit-
ting In his efforts TO save his neck He
was TO be hanged in August OF this
year. Mr. Flanagan shortly before the
date of his execution procured re-
prieve until Sept. II.
In the meantime the district attor-
.ney had secured affidavits which were
e. esented TO the governor last week.
The governor too had gone over the
testimony in the case and he deemed
that much of it was unreliable. There
was nothing in it connecting Chappo
with the killing of Wight more closely
than his companions were cOnnecteI
He therefore decided to commute the
sentence. The governor had received
previously from the wife of the muir
desed man a letter in which she said
she might have been mistaken when
she swore that she saw ChappO aim
the gun which killed her husband. In
the darkness and confusion of the night
she could not say who had fired the
fatal shot.

New York. December Attention
was directed to the possibility of crinf-
inal action growing out of the investi-
cation Of life insurance methods. by a
visit paid by District Attorney w. T.
Jerome to the legislative committee
while it was holding it's hearing in
the city hall today. Mr.. Jerome said

ture when it meets next January.

counsel for the investigating commit
tee today. n said afterward that MI.
Ryan is holding himself in readiness
to testify before the committee.
One of the points brought out by
Mr.. Hughes in today's hearing was
the fact that the Mutual Reserve Life
Insurance Company had paid s134.00O
to the widow of Edward B. Harper.
the former President Of that company
since MIR. Harper's death in 1895. The
money is derived from commissions
which former President Harper drew
on all the business written by the COM
pany. His widow. who has since re-
married. continues to receive the COM
missions.
incident to this inquiry, Mr.. Hughes
discovered an instance in which $4,000
had been paid to President Frederick
A. Burnham, of the Mutual Reserve
Life Insurance Company in 1896. and
concerning which Vice President
George D.. Eldridge. of that company,
testified that he knew nothing. The
president who made the payment from
a contingent fund said he did not know
HI it was paid for.
The affairs of the Security Mutual
Life Insurance COMPANY of ~Binghamp-
ton. \. Y, again were under investiga-
ton tOday. One of the interest
ing facts brought out was the
statement of President Charles NJ.
Turner. of that company. that he hal
employed a few wears agO D. H. Keef-
err, one of the clerks in the office Of
the superintendent of insurance at AL

prosperity should continue to the end
of the fiscal year we may not have q

will ever be able to work out the rev

A surplus, he said, was absolutely
necessary. Notwithstanding the gentle
man from Mississippi, who had been
barking into that hole for a long
time, but without attracting very
much attention from the American
people.
Arguing for the necessity of main
tanning a surplus in the treasury, MIR
Payne mentioned what he eontended
would be the possible disaster of
Democratic rule. Pressed for still
other reasons by Mr.. Williams, Mr.
Payne said one of the cycles of de-
preston which Mr.. Williams had Of

HOW ORDER 70 WORKED.

When President Roosevelt issued,
famous order, No. rs, 1t will possibly
be remembered that the democratic
party and IT'S candidate, a Mr. Parker,
of E.sopus, New York. defined his act
as fiat "usurpation."
In figures that in the light Of present
facts appear to have lacked much of
procerbial veracity. 1t was estimated
that pension payments would jump
twenty millions or even more, and
that the government had entered upon
u ruinous as well as Illegal pension
policy. Mortified democrats, foresee-
ing national disaster, threatened man
damus proceedings against the treas
urer as a styptic to the expected drain
of the nations likelihood.
Pension order No. rs became effec-
tive April 10, 1904. The report OF the
commissioner of pensions shows that
in the year 100000 $141,093.571 We're
paid out in pensions. Order No. as
was in force two and one-half months
of that year. Taking the year OF
19O4-O5, during which time the order
was in full force, the payments fos
pensions amounted to $l4l,142,S61.
The difference is an increase of $49.-
oOo. 900, or s19,951,oOO less than the es-
Inmates made by democratic actuar-
les. The fact is that the order in
creased the cost of pensions to the
government less than one-half the
cost of Marshalltown's public building,
and less than one-third Of the nppro-
priation Dave Henderson secured for

There is neither need nor occasion

OUR GOLD AND SILVER OUTPUT.

The estimates of gold and silver
production in 1904, just issued by the
director Of the mint, show that the I'm
tied States Is more than holding Its
metals Our gold output last year was
valued at $SO,723,200, a gain over 1908
of $7,131,500. Silver production in
creased In amount from 54,300,000 to
57,7S6,1O0 ounces, and In commercial
value from $29,322,00O to $33515,93S.
The closing of the mints to silver has
not, in fact, materially checked the ac-
tual mining Of that metal. The silver
total for 1904 is greater than that for
only 5000. 900 ounces below the high
record output of 1892 In commercial
value there has been, of course, q
sharp decline The silver mined last
year, worth $33,515,93S,, would have
brought about $56.0O0,000 in 1890 or
1891. Production continues active
chiefly because the metal is handled as
a by-product, three-fourths of last
years output being snelted out of lead
and copper ores. Montana, Colorado
and Utah are the chief silver states
Montana yielding 14,60S,1O0 ounces
Colorado 14331,6O and Titan 12,4S4,SO0
lin all a little morethan two-thirds
of the total product.
In gold Mining Colorado leads, her
gold product having three times the
value of her silver product Colorado's
Weld was valued at $24,395,SO0. Cali
fornia came second with $19,109,600, a
gain compared with 1908 Of more than
$4,000, O00 This is the largest gold
weld the state has had since the COS,
and the increase is attributed to dredge
operations which are expected to
WELD 100000 year for some thirty
wears to come. Alaska was the third
largest gold producer, with $9,3o4,2oo.
Next in order came South Dakota,
Montana, Nevada, Utah and Arizona.
The Weld fer 1904 makes new record,
exceeding that of the best previous
year-l9O2---by narrow margin. Com
pared wit ha decade ago, our gold pro-
duct has more than doubled in value
The United States is therefore doing
it's share-and more than its share
in replenishiing and widening the
stock out Of which the nations of the
world now coin their money of abso-
lutte redemption.
