JAP CLARK cow
BOY IN PRISON
Insists That Under
Sheriff Must Ad-
init Him.
ECHO OF CATTLE FEUD
In Lincoln County...C Charged
With Killing of Jim Chase
in Torrance.

When "Jap" Clark, cowboy EN-.
ployed by the Block outfit of the Ell
Captain Land and Cattle Company in
Lincoln County was released from the
penitentiary week ago last Monday,
where he had been serving sentence
Of eight months on a charge of horse
stealing, he called cab and drove d.
rectly to the county Jail in this city,
where he gave himself up to Deputy
Sheriff Jose l.. Lopez, on charge of
murder. He is the man who shot and
killed James Chase, former deputy
sheriff of Torrance County, in Tor
rance on April IA last
Insists on Arrest.
Deputy Sheriff Lopez at first refused
to take Clark into custody, saying
that he had no commitment for him.
Clark, however, insisted that he was
awaiting the action of the grand jury
for killing Chase and that he ought to
be in JAIL At length Lopez locked
him up and Clark has been in durance
vile ever since.
Attorney A. B. Renehan and Mark B.
Thompson have instituted habeas cor
pus proceedings before Judge Edward
A. Mann Of the Sixth Judicial District
court at Alamogordo to secure bond
for Clark. The papers necessary in the
case were sent to that place on the
following Friday and were returned to
this city yesterday. The hearing will
take place before Judge Mann in this
city on Monday
Sheriff Manuel Sanchez of Torrance
County came to Santa Fe yesterday
evening and left his deputy, James
Chaves, In charge of the prisoner to
take him into court. Clark, however,
said that he was anxious to 60 to
court and would do so of his own &C.
cord, so that Chaves' role will be an
easy one.

Self Defense.

Clark's plea will be self defense.
The killing of "Jim" Chase is an
interesting one and is the parting
echo of the we'll known old Lincoln
County cattle feud in which more than
one man died in western style with
his boots on. The witnesses examin.
ed at the preliminary hearing before
a justice of the peace, vary in their
statements regarding the affair, but
Mark Thompson, the attorney, said
that Clarks would be about as fol-
lows:
''That on the 14th day of March,
Clark met Chase in Torrance and a
wordy quarrel ensued between them.
While walking along Clark told Chase
not to draw his gun or he would kill
him. Chase was about seven feet In
advance Of Clark when the former
whirled suddenly, pulled six-shooter
from his hip pocket and fired. Clark
was shot in the leg but quickly re-
gained his balance and opened fire.
Both men fired five shots rapidly.
"None Of Chase's shots took effect
after the first one, but every time
Clark pulled the trigger he drew blood.
When both guns were empty the men
walked away in opposite directions.
Chase started for his room nearby,
realizing that he was hard hit. Around
the. corner he fell In heap and was
carried to a nearby house where he
died. Clark with friend drove from
the town, but surrendered later"
Others Shoot.
! These are the points favorable to
the Clark side Of the case, but as Is
always the case, certain witnesses
could not agree on important points.
1t seems that while the shooting was
in progress others took part and stray
shots were fired but not with intent to
kill.
One witness testified that another
man who had not been involved in
any way in the quarrel drew a six
shooter and fired twice in the ground.
Other shots 1t is alleged were heard
in the neighborhood, but nothing def
mite about them could be learned. The
hearing on Monday is for the pur-
pose Of securing bond, which Clark
says his friends with his old cattle
outfit are willing to advance.
II want to stay right here in jail
until I secure bond" said Clark at
the jail. "and then hikes me right
back to the old outfit to work and
will be glad to get there. That's mel"
Behaved Well.
Regarding this horse stealing
charge, l still deny that l had any
thing to do with 1t. However, when
! found that was up against 1t, I
went to the penitentiary and took my
medicine. behaved myself there and
think have tho roof will nf tha ofY3.

A. l.. Taft has been station agent at the
Sutton station for thirteen years last June,
and in that time has lost but sixteen days,
and eight of these were last year, and for
the first six years had not lost day, which
we think is very good record of service.
Mr.. and Mrs. Taft are planning to spend
the winter at Mount Gilead, N. c., with
her brother. They expect to start on their
journey there about the first of November.
While at 8. Berry's in this town last
week, we spent few minutes visiting with
his son, F. G. Berry, who has been sick
with rheumatfsm for about three years,
and nearly all of that time has been con-
fined to his bed, and not able to raise his
head from the pillow, or move himself in
bed without help. His hands are drawn
out of shape, and his knee pans are drawn
from their sockets; and yet in this condi-
ton, Mr.. Berry seems cheerful, and bears
his affection with a remarkable degree of
patience, and says that the time seems to
pass quickly. He said that during his three
years of sickness, forty seven of the friends
| whom he had known and worked with,
had passed over the River OF Death. Mr..
Berry seems to enjoy having people call
to see and talk with him.

Santiago, Chile, Aug. 25--A conserva- tive estimate places the property loss at Valparaiso as result of the earth, quake and fires at $200, 1000, 900. The. loss in the rural districts will be i'm mense, as not only the residences of the landed proprietors, but the huts of the -laborers have been completely destroy- ed, and in many places the bridges, fences and telegraph and telephone posts have been thrown down.
 No passenger trains have arrived here from Valparaiso since August 16. It is insitsed that the effect of the disas- ter in the number Of deaths and the amount of property destroyed, Is prob- abyl greater than was the case in San Francisco.
 Valparaiso Is the great seaport of the republic and its commerce exceeds that of San Francisco. The entire lower part of the city is completely destroyed and the loss of life Is felt throughout Chile because all parts of the country were represented there.
 Heavy rains are still falling at Valpa- raiso, making the misery still greater. Donations for the relief of the sufferers are arriving her from all pats or the world.
 Some idea of the state or affairs ex- istfng can be formed from the fact thaf A man rode on horseback from HaiP7- raiso to Santiago, distance or eispty miles and could not obtain to0a or drink for himself or his horse during the entire distance owing to the oes0- latfon prevailing.

 usage and was being driven daily with a heavy load back and forth from Binn Valley to Morel. The other evening as the muleteer had added. as usual. his own weight to thO tired mules already heavy load the beast plunged and reared so violently that the man was thrown with violence. breaking his arm, while the pack was flung off. Bolting then along the torrent side. the mule was nearing the bridge at Schert at full gal Ion. when a party of men barred the way. Seeing escape thus blocked and recapture inevitable. with a return to the old unbearable cruelty. the animal stopped. turned to the torrent flowing at a great depth below. and with a side leap plunged headlong into the abyss
