MuRpERERs IN FRANCE.
Some Curious Phases of Law in Diff
ferent Countries.

The recent murder of Senior Balmaceda,
secretary of the Chilean legation in Brus-
sells. by Luiz Waddington, son of the
Chilean minister, again directs attention
to one of the many laws that are sdaly
in need of alteration.
1t will be remembered that Waddington,
after firing five shots at his sisters be-
trothed, ran at full speed to the Chilean
legation, which stands close to Senior Bal
maceda's house, and took refuge there.
In consequence of this action the ponce
have no power to enter the building anu
arrest the murderer, for the legation IS
considered to be foreign territory and
therefore inviolable. The murderer Is thus
able for the time to snap his fingers at
the law and the police.
Even had the crime been committed in
this country, says Pearsons Weekly or
London, our authorities would have been
lust as helpless, for, as the law runs
the official residences of the representa-
tives of foreign countries are exempt from
the jurisdiction of the country IN which
. they stand ard local authorities lave
no right to enter them under any circum-
stances.
Once n murderer is captured "a this
country he may be tried for his crime, no
matter how Long he has ESCAPED the al M
of Justice; but in France this IS not So
There if murderer is not discovered and
brought to trial within fifteen years he
may go freeas the most crimeless citi-
zen. Only the other day a man who had
committed a murder twenty-five years
ago wrote defiantly to the police confess
ing the CRIME and giving his address In
Paris. Investigation proved his story to be
true. yet the police were prevented by the
law from arresting and Furnishing him.

Not satisfied with his disgraceful con-

players off the field and in practical de-
flanee of the order Of President w. M.
Kavanaugh refused to play the game,
which was accordingly forfeited to Biz
mingham by the score of to 0.
Umpire Buckley had received instrue-
tions from President Kavanaugh that
Durrett was suspended from the league
for ten days. He notified Durrett of his
suspension before the game. Notwith-
standing, when his time at bat came in
the first inning, after Houtz had fouled
out, Durrett walked up to the batter's
box
Buckley, with kavanaugh's telegram as
his authority, promptly ordered the Mont
gomery manager to the bench. As he did
so about $500 fans intermingled applause
for the umpire and Kisses for Durrett
The rowdy manager walked to the bench
and prepared to leave the park. All of

across the plate, and the game was over.

Result of purrett,s Action.


Just what will be the. esult of Durrett s
action was the one topic of conversation
on the streets yesterday afternoon. 1t
was pasesstersiy rumored that Durrett
acted under Instructions from the Mont
gomery Baseball association. This of
course cannot be verified.
Another story is that Durrett has con-
resignation will be a sequel to the episode
of Thursday and yesterday However,
what could have prompted his action on
the ball field yesterday afternoon is
mystery.
No manager. simply because of ten days
suspension. would bring about such conn
plications as will most assuredly result
from what Manager Durrett did yester-
day 1t is certain that feeling is high in
Montgomery against Umpire Buckley, and
it is equally certain that there is no
ground for the belief apparently prevalent
there that Buckley has given Montgomery
any the worst of it here.
Montgomery fans have been badly mis-
led in being made to believe that Umpire
Buckley is in the least partial. His work
in this city has been excellent, and this
statement is not made because he gave
the home team the best of decisions.
Buckley is not home umpire. he is not
partial to the visiting team. He is simply
a fair and square umpire, an advocate
of the square deal theory" and uphold
err of clean and orderly baseball. In other
words an umpire of the Billy Carpen-
ter calibre, who will not stand for kick
ing from either side, and who makes his
decisions as he sees the play.
Immediately after he had forfeited the
game to Birmingham Umpire Buckley
sent the following message to President
Kavanaugh:
Manager Durrett appeared ON the
grounds today with his club and | notified
him of his suspension. He came to the
bat and | ordered him to the bench. He
refused to allow his team to play, before
"a large crowd | forfeited game to Bir-
mingham. w. j. BUCKLEY
Durrett's conduct in the present series
has been most disgraceful. and his resig-
nation from the league, voluntary or in
voluntary, will be good news to Birming-
ham fans who Of course want victory,
but who desire even more orderly sport.
$500 Fans Disguised.
About 2500 fans were on hand to see a
game, and they We're not only disap-
pointed. but Disguised at the action of
Durrett If the Montgomery team still
remains In the league. it will be unpopu-
lar not only in Birmingham but in other
cities as we'll.

forfeiting the game but the financial loss
is not the only loss that will result from
the affair Its effect unless an example
is made of the case, will be far-reach-
ing. 1t win result probably in Durretts
emulsion from the league. 1t may be
even more.
There are no words of condemnation
strong enough for Durrett for his brutal
assault on Umpire Buckley Thursday, and
if he was responsible for the step he took
Yesterday, he is even more to blame. II
the Montgomery Baseball association
prompted the action they did so wrongly
and will suffer financially.
Nothing but eensure fer Durrett was
heard from the fans yesterday. The fol-
lowing telegram was sent to President
Kayanaugh last night by a number OF
fans:
Telegram to kavanaueh

ed today by Durrett's baby act and will

SCHOOL TEACHERS
FIGHT PISTOL DUEL
One of Them Daad and the Other one
Morta lily Wounded.

The killing OF Prof. u. Francis Duff in
a pistol duel at Deming last Saturday af-
ternoon by Prof. W.. II. Dickey is deeply
mourned by all educators all over New
Mexico. The true cause of the enmity OF
the two southern New Mexico educators
will probably never be known unless
Dickey, who was also shot, survives his
wound and tells the facts himself. 1t is
thought that the two men, Duff being
superintendent of schools of Luna county,
and Dickey superintendent of Deming
public schools, were avowed enemies over
certain school matters, while it is intimat-
ed that the two men had a growing dislike
for each other on account OF n certain
school teacher. In any event, Duff is dead
and DiCkey IS in a precarious condition
from 4 wound in the side, the ball strik-
ing a rib, thus saving him from sudden
death. They engaged in a bitter quar-
rel several months ago, but friends inter
ferred and the duel was supposed to have
been closed. A few days ago, it is alleged
Duff sent word TO Dickey that he would
kill him on sight. and when Duff attempted
to put into execution his threat, Dickey
was prepared.
