Chihuahua, Mex. Nov.23.-Tne two
nest nervous and badly frightened
men in Mexico today are probably ID.
nj. Mitchell, alias Mason, and Dr. G.
s. Harle. Reports from the state pris-
no where they have been seen, say
that they are pale as death. wear hunt
ed looks and tremble at the sound OF
every approaching footstep, fearing
that it may be the guard coming to
lead them to execution
The state authorities. however,
have as yet received no official notice
of the supreme courts decision, and.
until this comes. there can be moth
ing done.
Harle has always shown more feel
inc than the others, but Mason, who
win be remembered for his attempt

Washington, Nov. 25.-The trial of
Mrs. Annie Bradley, charged with
the murder of former U. S. Senator
Arthur Brown, was resumed today. 1t
is believed the hearing of evidence
will be concluded this week. DR.. Will
fred NJ. Barton, insanity expert, was
called by the defense, and long hypo-
thetical questions put to him after his
examination by the prosecution as to
certain phases of insanity. During
the reading of the hypothetical ques-
tions Mrs. Bradley closed her eyes
and bowed her head, breathing heavi-
ly at times as if suffering deep emo
questions referred to her close rela-
tions with Brown and his declaration
of love she raised a handkerchief to
her eyes. Many of the jurors observ-
ed her closely, but she appeared OBJ
livious to everything around her The
hypothetical questions were still be-
ing read when at 1890 the luncheon
recess was taken.
The ordeal was evidently very try
ing on Mrs. Bradley. When Judge
Powers read that the prisoners
health had been failing since 1900
counsel for the government objected.
After the testimony of Mrs. Bradley
confirming that statement was read
the judge permitted the language to
as written in the hypothetical
question.
When the court re-convened after
noon DIR. Barton again took the stand
and the reading was resumed.
The reading of the hypothetical
questions in the Bradley case was
concluded at two O'Clock. DR.. Barton
declared after hearing it that Mrs.
Bradley was insane at the time she
committed the act. Her particular all
ment he said was puerpal insanity.

To Resume Paying Currency.
New York, Nov. 25.-That the
banks of New York and those thru
out the country will soon resume pay
ments in currency is the opinion ex-
pressed by men prominent in the fin
aacial world. The banks, it is said,
are enabled because of the enormous
importation of gold to take up most
of the hundred million dollars issue
of treasury certificates, and thereby
increase their bank note circulation.
Bankers are of the opinion that the
premium will be dropped
within short time The premium has
already fallen from to 1 IL per
cent
1t is estimated that during the
furry $125,O00,O 900 has been with
drawn from the banks of New York,
and the total amount withdrawn thru
out the county is estimated at over
five hundred millions. Clearing house
certificates are in use in twenty-three
cities of over one hundred thousand
The amount of certificates
in New York is seventy
five million dollars.

Groundless Land Schemes

The G"osf for November has this
to say of class of wildcat spccu-

worthless TOWNSHIP property, under
iron-clad contracts that makes the
deal Il winner to the cXploiter.
whether the project ever amounts to
a success or not. The investor takes
all the risk and pays all the expense
OF the high pressure methods by
which the gullable are caught at
every throw and thus unwittingly
become accessories to the fraud.
But read what Tic E"aa says:
Land schemes in the Pacific North
west are legion. Weare again where we
were sixteen years ago, when the story of
making million from a few hundred led
armies of gullibles who bought deeds to
acres and all they received for their good
dollars was a good title. The present
day is day Of imitation. Bubbles are
being blown in every town and city;
upon every corner in every alley. This
does not mean that every real estate
dealer is knave and thief. but it does
mean, not as an insinuation, but as cold
fact, that many of the apparently largest
and most pretentious firms in the Pacific
Northwest dealing in or handling acres
tracts, irrigation schemes, additions and
townsites are the rankest kind of
confidence fakirs, bunco-steering and
smooth, nimble-witted knaves upon the
face of the earth.
The vast operations of these frauds
and the large number now operating,
all of which have sprung up in few
months and years, brands them with all
their grand promises as vicious and Grim
inal. So wise are these men that they
keep within the letter of the law, while
they abuse most numerically its spirit
In ways devious and intricate they en-
Irvine their operations around strong
banking institutions and prominent pub
lie men,"
