ARREST MEXICAN ON
MURDER SUSPICION
WILL BE HELD UNTIL CASE is
INVESTIGATED
Victim of Assault Dies of Injuries
and Prisoner Is Believed to
Be Man Who Inflicted
Them

Miguel Castenado, a Mexican laborer, is
a prisoner at the city Jail on suspicion of
having committed murder.
Castenado was arrested last night by
Detectives Louis and Tom Rico and
Talamantes and booked at the central
station on suspicion.
1t is alleged that on November 16 Cas-
tenado had an alteration at the junction
of Buena Vista and New High streets
and that he knocked Gutierrez down and
kicked him in the side of the head while
he was PROSTATE.
Gutierrez was removed to the city re-
ceiving hospital where it was found that
he was suffering from a conclusion, n
fractured nose and a confused wound
over the right temple.
From the receiving hospital he was
taken to the county hospital where he
died November q as a result of his in
juries.
The detective department was notified
of the mans death and Detectives Rico
and Rico and Talamantes were assigned
to the case. They ascertained that Cas-
tenado was the man who was supposed
to have assaulted Gutierrez, and after a
search of a week they found their man
on Ord street and arrested him.
The records in the case are not entirely
clear. and so far as the county hospi-
tai authorities are concerned it could not
be learned from them whether Gutierrez
was dead or whether some one else had
died whose name and address was not
known, the only thing known being that
victim of an assault had passed away.
The police will hold Castenado until the
case Is fully inquired into, and today
when the hospital records are accessible
they will find If Gutierrez or some other
man is the victim of the blows of Cas-
tenado.

Increases Our RESPONSIBILITIES

1--WE have now reached an annual in
fluX of a mnlion immigrants, with mil
lion opportunities and a million respon-
sibilities for their well-being and our
safety. The manner in which American
Christianity deals with the religious
problems of immigration will decide what
part America is to play in the evangel-
ization of the nations abroad.
UNLESS we Americanize and Christ
ianize these foreigners they will alienize
our civilizati ton and destroy our free in
stitutions. The gospel is the solution of
all race antipathies.
To-day. mingled with our confessions
of sins indulged' let the notes of praise
and the accents of abounding thanksgiv-
ing ascend to the Bountiful Giver of all
good. For the defense and deliverance
of our free institutions we bless Thee;
for patriotic devotion and peaceful pros
perity we praise Thee; for immunity from
pestilence, famine and sword we thank
Thee"

Down Town Protestant Churches Join
in Their Observance of the
National Day of Thanks
giving

The down town Protestant churches
ioined in a monster union service at the
First United Presbyterian church, at
which Dr. ]. Q. A. Henry, pastor of the
First Baptist church, preached the SER
mon. He said in part:
There is peculiar fitness in the prop
er observance of this national Ihanks-
giving day. This time-honored custom
had it's origin among the early settlers
of New England. In a time of great
dependency says Dr. Franklin, 1t was,
proposed in one of their public assem-
blies to proclaim a fast; when an old
farmer arose, spoke of provoking Heaven
with their complaints, reviewed their
mercies, showed that they had much to
be thankful for, and moved that instead
of appointing a day of fasting, they
should appoint a day Of thanksgiving
This was done, from which time the Gus
tom has grown in popular favor until at
present its observance in our land is all
but universal. In the beginning its cele-
bration was sacred and religious; but
with the growth of years it has become
increasingly social and secular until 1t
has become a time of family feasting,
gladstone festivities and merrymaking.
"Of late the attempt has been made to
rescue the day from the supremacy of
the social and the secular and make it
the occasion of careful, candid and
conscientious consideration of our ma
tional condition; time in which we
shall not cease to be personally and pro-
foundly grateful, but one in which we
shall soberly review the history of civil
liberty, its progress, it's perils and its
prophecies; to trernble for it's trials,
weep over its prosecutions and rejoice
over it's triumphs.

Enemies Constantly watchfuI

For to preserve the institutions which
have been bequeathed to us is a sacred
duty. If the liberty which we enjoy is
precious to us and we are privileged
to move and act in its sunshine and ge-
nial warmth, we should guard it as a
peculiar treasure-a priceless gem. 'Eter-
nal vigilance is the price of liberty. The
casket that contains this jewel is in con-
slant danger of being rifled. Secure in
the enjoyment of our boasted favors and
flattered by the prosperity which they
bring to us, we may in some unguarded
moment be deprived of them: our ma
tional temple rlfled and we be despoileu
of our dearest inheritance.
''The enemies of a popular government
always stand ready to lend helping hand
to compass it's ruin. Heartless villains
in our midst would sell its liberties for
the qualification of their own ambition
and reckless lust for power, and If the
foundations of this civil and religious
liebrty be destroyed, what can the right
eous do? 81
America was not discovereu until ev-
erything was ready for the Inauguration
of the grandest experiment that the world
had ever witnessed. God reserved this
continent in the virgin freshness of its
soil and the primitive purity of its air
that humanity and Christianity planted
here in the last days of the worldShistory
might have the grandest opportunity of
the ages for magnificent and merciful
development.
westward has ever been the course of
empire and the onward march of civili-
cation At last the ultimate west has
been reached and may we not believe
and hope that here will be witnessed the
final triumph of free institutions and our
beloved Christian religion; and that
from these western shores shall be flung
back over the world, refluent tide of
life and love trat shall usher in the i'm
perishable glory for which we watch,
wait and pray? Shall it not b the high
est distinction to conserve and carry for
ward to their ultimate triumph and per-
fection the principles of freedom? Shall
not population fill our wales with re-
joicing and echo from the hills their
gladness? And America be as free as
the ocean; as serene as the cloudless
sky, as happy as the sunshine as beauti-
full as God; and her people be filled with
joyful thanksgiving as pure as it is ra'
diant as complete as 1t is sincere?

wILa AsKEW
Reached Shreveport on Last Night
Train from His Home in Muskogee.

Will Askew, the young man unfortun-
ately entangled in the Hanson murder
case, reached Shreveport on last nights
train in charge of Sheriff Cook. He
came from Muskogee, his home. 1t was
not until he was on the train that he was
made acquainted with the charge against
him. As he explained to a Caucasian
representative, he believed he was COM
ing to Shreveport as witness. He was
informed that his arrest was Oh an in
dictn1ent by the grand jury obtained on
the statement of parties who had ap-
peared before that body and by them he
was connected with the case. He ex-
pressed great regret over his situation,
insisting that he is guiltless and his en-
tanglement is due to his having been in
the company of the woman, Lena Twill
ley.
To the credit of VIII Askew it may be
said that he has always borne good
character, and has been in the employ OF
The Caucasian, where he rendered sat
isfactory service. He has also been en-
ployed by the Journal.
To The Caucasian representative he
denied all knowledge or connection with
the crime, and declared that the woman
and the man who had testified agalns
him before the grand jury had conspired
to involve him in the murder of Hanson
He admitted that he had stated tha
he believed that George Hanson hat
been murdered by Henry High. Th
statement, made voluntarily on tn
morning of October 3, the day following
the night of the murder, had been sug
gested to him by the enmity of Higl
against Hanson, who was apprehensiv
of High. The Caucasian representativ
did not press Askew for any revelation
if any be in his possession, concerning
this crime.

PROHIBITION
QUESTION
BEFORE THE, POLICE JURY AT
TODAY'S SESSION.
ELECTION JAN. l4TH, 1908
The Ants Were Present and Ready for
the Fray = Outmanouvered by the
Pros-Swift and Decisive Action Re-
moves Opportunity for Oratory.

The Police Jury at their session held
today, by a vote of ten to four, ordered
an election for January IA, 1908, al
which to take the sense of the qualified
voters on the issue of prohibition.
There were hundreds of ladies who
stood in and about the court house, ex-
pecting the jury to adjourn from the
Police Jury room to the District Court
room, which was crowded with ladies in
waiting, but when the fight was opened
and the pros secured the advantage at
the very initial of the proceedings, they
dared not risk the issue on a change OF
position
The ants were there in good numbers
and were confident of securing delay,
but having failed i'll the preliminaries
for advantages, finally yielded to the in
,evitable.
7 1t was expected that the fight would
open with the presentation of petitions
containing the names of the signers, but
this was set aside by the presentation Of
the ordinance providing for the election,
which brought the question squarely be-
fore the jury for action
In this instance the usual parliament
ary eactics invoked by the ants having
miscarried, the issue was forced to a
vote, resulting:
For-Wynn and Douglas, Ward One /;
Jolly, Ward Two; Miller, Ward Three !;
Agurs and Furman, Ward Four; Alex
ander, Ward Five; Johnson, Ward Six;
Henderson, Ward Seven; Moss, Ward
Eight Total 10.
Against-Crawford, Dreyfuss, Har-
key, Mahlen, Ward Four. Total 4,
With this vote, which was unchanged
at every point calling for vote, the pro-
hibitionists retired greatly rejoiced.
There was no i'll feeling manifested on
'either side
The contest is limited to thirty days,
which is time sufficient as the issue is
well understood and all the canvassing
necessary will be urged in the time fixed
for the election.
