which was filed in the office of Ter
ritorial Secretary j. w Reynolds.
Deputy United States Marshal Fred
erick Fornoff yesterday arrived in
Santa Fe from Taos Regarding Con
ley, he said:
"a funny thing in connection with
this case is the fact that the condemn
ed man resents the statement that he
Is insane. He says he is mentally all
right and submits to examination as
to his mental condition with rather
bad grace.
There is absolutely no question III
my mind as to Conley's sanity The
fact that reprieve was obtained upon
the insanity plea amounts to this
Conley has been forced to suffer for
ten days longer than necessary. Had
the execution been carried out as per
schedule, he would now be at rest
There is no doubt that the man is
suffering from a certain amount of
fear. Whether or not he will meet his
fate bravely. is a matter Of doubt
Will Meet Fate.
He says that he will and | think
he will make an effort to control him
self However, he is big strong man.
rather nervous in disposition, and it
is hard to tell just how he will face
death He realizes that he is better
off in death, even should he secure
a communication to life Imprisonment
He is now 81 years old. In the natu-
raj course of events, he would not live
a great while longer and If locked in
prison, he could not expect at his age
to last for more than ten years. He
would hardly be pardoned in that time
By looking at it from such stand
point, he may nerve himself for the
final ordeal"
Adyices received from Taos are to
the effect that Conley is greatly agi'
tated and in all probability will break
down when the time comes for him to
die. In anticipation of this, the Off
GERS who will attend to the execution
have made preparations for the car
rying out of the courts sentence as eX'
peditiously as possible.

worlds championship title seriously,
Tommy Burns Of Chicago, may now be
considered the heavy weight champion.

last night at the Pacific Athletic Club

at the end of the twenty rounds.
From start to finish, with the pos
sible exception Of the tenth and four
teenth rounds, when Hart had very
small advantage, Burns outfought the
bigger man, outgeneraled and beat
him at every point in the game Of
boxing. At times Burns, although

child was dead and the people attacked
the chauffer.
Vanderbilt believing the lives of the
party in danger, drew revolver. He
was soon disarmed however, and kicked
and cuffed. The police finally res.
cued them, and Vanderbilt and the
chauffer were placed in jail while Mrs
Vanderbilt was taken to hotel,
where she was shown every attention
possible.
This morning doctors visited Adolph
Butine, the boy who was injured by
the Vanderbilt's automobile in order
to ascertain his condition. Grave com.
plications, it was announced may
arise.
Through the American consular au-
thorities, Vanderbilt has secured a
lawyer who applied for his clients

in similar cases, but which can be re-
fused If the child does not die, or is
not permanently injured, the pun.

AGAINST BILL.
President Hadley Of Yale Says Hep
burn Measure Will Not Accomplish.
What is Desired.

Boston, Mass Feb. 24.-The Eve
ming Transcript today published an ar.
ticle by President Arthur T. Hadley,
of Yale on the present status of the
rate regulation contest in Washington.
The doctor argues that the PROPOSE
ton of the Hepburn bill to make the
decisions of the Interstate Commerce
Commission final in all questions OF
fact is illogical and impracticable. He
declares a similar plan was tried in
England in the seventies but did not
work and was finally repealed.
He declares that common law gives
the shipper more protection than the
statutes as was shown in the Chesa-
peake and Ohio coal case recently de-
cided by the Supreme Court.

Bismarck Tribune: Two deserters
made their getaway from Fort Lin
coin last evening and this morning,
dressed in citizens clothes, hiked out
eastward. Word was sent to the police
of the city this morning and Chief
Mcdonald got very busy. On horse
back he traced the men to the 500
shops and thence east along the mud
dy road and over, the hills and far
away. At a farm house several miles
east of the city he learned that they
had passed a short time before and
later he caught up and arrested them
after a hard ride of ten miles. A
brother of Sheriff Welch was passing
at the time in buggy and he was Sc
cured to haul the men to town. They
were turned over to the authorities
at Lincoln this afternoon, and in due
time Chief Mcdonald will receive the
reward of $50 each for capturing the
men. Their names were Arthur Con-
nor of this city, and John Doe.

old MORTGAGE CASE
Supreme Court Has just Decided 1t
for the Fifth Time--Interesting
Points involved.

After its different phases had been
passed upon for the fifth time by the
state supreme court, word was. receiv-
cd in the city this morning that the
case of John Tracy VS.. W. A. Scott
and HI. O. Wheeler had been finally
disposed of by decision of the SUI
preme court which was handed down
late yesterday afternoon. The case
involved many intricate points of law
in relation to the foreclosure of mort
cages and the decision of the court in
the case will be watched for with In
terest by attorneys all over the state.
II appears that in 1882 William Bos-
well gave mortgage to David Muir
ray for 5000. In 1887 the mortgage
became due but for some reason in
spite Of the fact that the interest had
not been paid. it was let run along un-
| til after the death of both Murray and
Boswell as well as after the death of
Boswelrs daughter. Tracy was the
administrators of the estate of the lat
| ter. Mr.. Wheeler was the administra-
| tor of the estate of Murray in Vermont
and Mr.. Scott acted in the same ca
pacity for the estate in North Dako-
| ta.
Foreclosure of the mortgage was
commenced by advertisement but
| Tracy resisted and attempted to have
the proceedings taken into court,
pleading the ten year statute of limi-
tations. The contention of the adj
Iministrators of the Murray estate was
that foreclosure by advertisement
could be made any time within twen-
4 ty years. under statute which en-
ables the laying of an action to effect
/ the title to real estate at any time
within twenty years.
/ Different phases of the case were
iargued in the courts and five decisions
! on different points have been render
/ ed by the supreme court. In the mean
/ time the amount of the mortgage has
Igrown from 5000 to nearly $4,000.
| The latest decision of the supreme
Icourt sustains the contention OF the
administrators of the Murray estate,
.Ibut the exact ground covered by the
decision is not known here.

Mrs. Kedrick Gave Birth to Baby
in a Stairway This Morning

Deserted by her husband, pennless
and without friends, Mrs. Bertha Ke-
drick was found in a pitiful condition
by officer Mullen at the foot of the
stairs in the Ely block on Broadway
this morning AT the side of the UNI
fortunate woman Iay a baby that had
come into the world as the woman,
weakened from her Illness and depriv-
atiOns, had stopped in the stairway to
rest. The spark of life which had
come into the world with the infant
had departed before the officer had
arrived on the scene.
DIR. Kaess was hurredly summoned
by officer Mullen and immediate
steps were taken to relieve the suffer-
ings of the unfortunate woman. The
city ambulance was summoned and
the unfortunate was given temporary
shelter at the Woman's home on the
southside.
1t appears that Mr.. and Mrs Ked-
rick were married in this city nearly
two years ago. Kedrick is a Turk
and is engaged in the business of ped
ding dry goods through the country.
Mrs. Kedrick is Norwegian. Last
Friday Kedrick started on one of his
peddling expeditions. He left his wife
in destitute circumstances in room
on Fourth avenue north.
Early this morning Mrs. KedriclS
became very i'll and decided to secure
the services of a physician. With
difficulty she walked from her home
and as she passed the Ely block, she
