THE PARDON OF DAN REGAS
Man Who Killed His Mother-in-Law
Had q Bad Record

Carson, Nevada. July l1.-Dan Re.
gan. the Sparks merchant. formerly a
resident Of vacaville. California, where
he was reared. was pardoned yesterday
by the State Board Of Pardons.
Although Governor John Sparks was
known to have pledged his sympathy
and support to Regan's aged mother.
1t was hardly believed that he would
be given his liberty. as it was only a
year ago that he wrecked his home in
drunken it. after which he assaulted
his mother-in.law. Mrs. Mary Hess Of
vacaville, killing her with a heavy
blow over the heart. She died in a
few minutes.
Regan claimed that he did not In
tend to kill Mrs. Hess. aud his attor-
neys insisted that she died from heart
disease and not from the blow.
Regau led . stormy life at Sparks.
where he had been engaged in several
disturbances, and the fact that he had
been arrested once in California upon a
charge Of rape did not help him any
during the trial.

SILVER TICKET CAUSES ALARM
Democrats Fear 1t Means Weak
ening of Party and Strength
ening of Republicans

A Carson correspondent of the Sacra-
mento Bee says;
While ridiculing the organization
that is being formed by the ''stalwart"
or trump" Silverites. there is apprehen-
sion in Democratic circles that the
movement will draw enough votes from
the Democratic-Silver fusion ticket
to again endanger it in the coming
election.
Two years ago the trump" Silver
men aided materially in the Demo
cratic defeat aud it was freely charged
that they not only received Republican
encouragement but Republican money.
The charge was never proven. however.
Out of 12. 900 votes cast in the State
they polled almost 800 aud they claim
that with good organization this year
they will double their vote in 1906.
Richard Kirman and Judge c. E.
NJ ick of Reno, and Judge Bonnifield of
Winnemucca. are the chief organizers
of the stalwarls. Kirman is slated for
Governor. and as he is a man of great
wealth and bitter enemy of Senator
Newlands. he is expected to put con-
siderable fire in his campaign. There
are about q dozen Senators to elect

witnesses for the State. They testified
that Barieau begun the trouble by as

that when she screamed Logan rushed

A Dangerous Office to Hold

1t is dangerous to be a school trustee
in Carson. At the recent school elec-
tion an entirely new board of trustees
was elected in that city. Soon after
the election rumors became circulated
that the new board would elect new
corps of teachers. A few days later
one Of the trustees received a letter
threatening him with vengeance un-
less he voted to retain the old teachers
in their positions. Evidently he paid
no attention to the threats. as his fine
dog has been poisoned. and a few nights
ago his place of business was set on
fire by an incendiary.

Tonopah. New, July IA Walter
Barieau, the Manhattan gambler, who
shot and killed Sheriff Tom Logan of
Tanopah at Manhattan on April z. was
to-day acquitted OF the charge Of mur-
der that was lodged against him. He
pleaded self.defense. and throughout
the testimony was strongly in his favor.
The fact that Logan was proved to be
intimate with May Biggs. proprietress
of the house in which he was killed,
and that he attacked Barieau, not in
his capacity as peace officer. but to
avenge the woman. who had become
angered at Barieau, seriously crippled
the prosecution attempted by the State.
The Defendant Statement.
Barieau. who testified yesterday.
made good witness for himself. Ac-
cording to his testimony, on the night
of the killing he was induced by Judge
Hoggatt and two friends to join a
party of men with whom he went to the
Jewel sporting house. Explaining how
he he came to have the gun the witness
said that just before they started
Judge Hoggatt remarked that he had
considerable money and jewels on his
person and asked If any one had gun.
Barieau said he seldom carried gun,
but always kept one in the drawer Of
the table at which he worked, and
when Hoggatt made this remark he
(Barieau) put his gun in his pocket.
The witness told of the visit to the
Jewell house and how when wine was
served he accepted one glass from
which he took but q mouthful. This
made him i'll and he laid down ON the
lounge aud went to sleep. About two
hours later May Biggs came in and told
