ACCUSE DEAD MAN.
Mother of Laura Mathews and
 Coey Say Murder.
INQUEST VERDICT IS SUICIDE.
Mystery Surrounds Death of KansaA City Girl at Colorado Springs Chicago Mans Letters With
 Many Vows of Love.

;. COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo, Aug 1.-The coroner's inquest rendered q verdict that Miss Laura Mathews whose dead body was found lying in [ lane near Broadmoor on Monday morns ing with bullet hole in her head, coms mltted suicide.
 At the inquest letters written by O. A. Coey of Chicago to Miss Mathews were read to the jury.
 The letters indicated that Coey was deeply in love with Miss Matthew's They abound in protestations of love. Such phrases as T cannot get along without you" T will live for you if you live for me" and Life is short, So why not be with the, one we love the most" are some of the phrases used.
 In nearly every letter Coey ene0ur aged Miss Mathews to be good lits, tie girl' and to come back to him with her health restored. Numerous clip. pings from Chicago papers about races in which Coey had participated, yacht he had purchased and other news items were inclosed in the letters.
 A dispatch from Chicago says that c. A. Coey, who has been prominently mentioned In the developments follow. ing the suicide of Miss Mathews, held a conference there with Mrs. Jennie Mathews the mother of the girl, who has arrived there from Kansas City. At the conclusion of their interview both of them declared that, in their opinion. the girl had been murdered Coey declared that he had traced the telegram said to have been sent to him by Miss Tillo Green, the nurse of Miss Mathews, and was satisfied that she did not send it. He further said:
 q believe that Miss Mathews death is plain case of murder. In my opin- lon Amos R. Rumbaugh. who shot him' self rather than give evidence at the inquest. committed the deed and sent a telegram calculated to put strong suspicion on me as being the cause ol the girls suicide. About ten days ago wrote Miss Mathews cheerful let ter, and she was talking of returning to Chicago Rumbaugh was evidently afraid of losing the girl"
 Mrs Mathews absolutely refused te accept the theory of suicide.

NO FALL ELECTIONS New York Senators to Serve
 U.til 1908.
JACKSON WILL APPEAL AT ONCE.
Supreme Court Justice Fitts' Decf- sion on Application of Senator Owen Cassidy Settles Matter
 of Senatorial Contests.

ALBANY, N. Y., Aug. 1.-State sen ators need not be elected this fall. The present senators are to serve out their two year terms, and their successors are not to be elected until November, 1908. This was the decision handed down by Supreme Court Justice Fitts in granting the application of Senator Owen Cassidy for peremptory writ of mandamus compelling Secretary of State Whalen to send out his election notices to county clerks without in cluding senators in the list to be voted for at the November election.
 Justice Pitts bases his decision on the opinion of Chief Judge Edgar NJ. Cullen of the court of appeals, which was handed down when the 1906 legis- lative apportionment law was declared unconstitutional last winter. All of the judges of the court of appeals at the time concurred in Judge Cullens opinion.
 There has been much lay discussion as to just what Chief Judge Cullen held in this opinion. In effect, Justice Pitts says Chief Judge Cullen decided that the present senate should hold for two year term; that, under the constitution, senators cannot be elected until November, 1908, unless vacancies exist and that no vacancies in the office now exist
 Therefore, Justice Fitts says, that as the secretary of state is purely an administrative officer he has no right to decide that q senate shall be elect ed next fall, nor that any senators shall be elected in case of vacancy except upon the proclamation of the governor, where such vacancies are caused by death or resignation.
 There were present when Justice Fitts read his opinion at chambers Senators Harvey D. Hinman and Owen Cassidy and Deputy Attorneys General Decker and Mackey.
 The attorney general at once will appeal to the appellate division of the supreme court of this department, which is expected to convene in extra session within few days and to hand down decision by the end of next week. Then an appeal is to be taken to the court of appeals, and Chief Judge Cullen will be asked to convene that court at once, so that final de- cision of the court of last resort is ex- pected before Sept 1.
 Word was received from Presiding Justice Smith that the appellate di- vision of the supreme court would convene here in special session at 10 a. m. on Saturday to review Justice Fits decision. It is expected that the appellate division will affirm with out delay, when 1t is the intention to ask Governor Hughes to convene the court of appeals next week to pass finally upon the question.

DEATH HWARRANTRED
Priest Called on Men Marked
 by Hunchakist.
SIX BLACKMAIL LETTERS SENT OUT
III Fated Tavshanjian, Two Hours Before His Assassination, Re- z. ceived Threatening Note
 In Red Ink.


 Before His Assassination, Re- :. ceived Threatening Note In Red Ink.
 NEW YORK, Aug. 1.---Three new in. dictments were found against Leyont Martouguessian, the Armenian priest who is charged by some of his country men with being back of the conspiracy that resulted in the assassination of Tavshanjiap, the rug importer. Two of the indictments charge attempted robbery and the other is for black mail.
 Evidence upon which the indictments were found was furnished by Armeni- an merchants who have been threaten ed by Martouguessian and have paid him money. He is now in the Tombs under $25.000 bail on an indictment found charging attempted robbery. There is on the way to New York from Lowell, Mass, a trunk belonging to Bedros Khachadorian, the slayer of Tayshanjian. It was found there in hls lodgings by representative of the district attorneys office and is suppos- ed to contain letters and documents that will expose the whole inside his- tory of the Hunchakist conspiracy I Nicholas Malich, one of the Armeni- ans arrested with Martouguessian and later discharged, was rearrested and arraigned i'll the Center street court. He is charged with having stolen goods in his possession It is under stood that Malich has failed to give the district attorney important informa- tion of which he is believed to be pos sessed.
 Evidence that Father Levont and Bedros Khachadorian were intimate acquaintances continues to pile up, not withstanding the denial of the priest that he ever knew the murderer. A charge of murder, as foreshadowed by the district attorney when Levont was arraigned before Judge O'Sullivan in general sessions, may be made at any time against the priest. The handwriting of certain letters !, sent by blackmailers plays an impor- ! tant part in the new cases
 Tavshanjian received letter from those conspiring to kill him only two hours before he was assassipated and experts in handwriting will endeavor to determine who wrote 1t. They have the signature of the priest written many times.
 The experts declare that the admitted writing of Father Levont is the same as that of the six threatening letters received by. merchants Immediately after Tavshanjian's assassination. One of the six got letter demanding mon- ey once before, and the next day, he declares. Father Levont called on him.
 'Is this my death warrant?" the man asked the priest.
 "No," replied Martouguessian coolly, .that will be written in red ink" \ The last notice to Tavshanjian was i in red ink.
