NEW MEXICO DOES
NOT DESIRE BELL

AS far as New Mexico is concern.
ed, she has no further interest in
Charles Bell
This was in substance the message
telegraphed to Sheriff James Lowry
at Prescott, Arizona, yesterday even
ing by Governor Herbert J. Hager-
man, after satisfying himself that
Bells alleged confession to the effect
that he murdered Colonel J. Francisco
Chaves, was pure fiction. Deputy
Sheriff Frederick Fornoff investigated
Bells statements in detail and came
to the conclusion that the man was
mentally irresponsible.
Probably Crazy.
Il am satisfied that the man is
either crazy or trying to impose up
on the public by his fictitious confess
sion,' said Governor Hagerman, "and
as far as this Territory is concerned,
the sheriff at Prescott may release
Bell. 1t is certain that he was in no
way connected with the Staying of
Colonel Chaves and it would be foolish
and expensive to bring him to this
Territory only to turn him loose upon
preliminary hearing.
"Jap" Clark, IN the Territorial pen
itentiary awaiting the action of the
grand jury for shooting and killing
James Chase in Torrance said that he
knew Bell when he was living at Lin
coin. and that he was satisfied the
man did not kill Colonel Chaves.
Bell Harmless.
Charley Bell is as harmless as a
kitten" said Clark. 81 don't mean to
say that he would not take his own
part in fair and square fight if he
was up against it. However, you can
just say for me that Charley wouldn't
think of shooting his worst enemy in
the cowardly manner in which Col
onel Chaves was killed. I know Bell
too we'll to believe that, even If he
told me he did it himself

the panic had lasted four years the
Spanish American war followed and
all appropriations went toward the bet

That was an unfavorable time; now
the country is prosperous and he would
like to have showing In this gooo
time.
DIR. Strait attacked Finleys record
referr'..s to the obtaining of the ap-
ropriation for the Kings Mountain
monument in York county by a Nortf
Carolina congressman. If elected the
speaker promised to be honest. Upor

ton reading this way: Would yot

this In a few words, saying that II nc
agreement could be reached he would
