NUMBER rs
ELks WILL BUILD A


An informal gathering of the young
er Elks, who pushed to a success the
recent carnival, last night brought
out a proposition to build a club
house, and to do it at once Since the
Elks bought the quarterback at the
corner of Second street and Richard
son avenue they have been endeav-
orilg to negotiate a loan of forty or
fifty thousand dollars and build an
elegant home and opera house. Ever
since they have been working on
this proposition the money market
has been SO tight they could not get
the ready money; and now they have
decided to go ahead and build a small
but neat club house and let the rest
go for the present. The club house
will be something of which all the
members may be proud, and yet will
not cost much. 1t will be a temporary
structure, in way, and will be built
at the rear of the immense lot, leav-
ing all the fronts and corners open
for an opera house later. With other
funds available the Elks will have
about half enough to build the club
house as a result of the carnival. They
are going to put it to good use. The
March, unless all plans fail.

PREPARING FOR LAST
WEEK OF BRADLEY TRIAL

Washin gton, d. c., Nov. 23.-Botn
sides in the Bradley case were engag
ed today in preparing for what all
hope will be the last week of the ia
nous murder trial. The lawyers for
the defense were putting the finish

tion which they will PROFOUND Monday
to the experts summoned to testify
as to their clients sanity or insanity
at the time she shot Brown. The
mere reading of this question con
tanning over 1900 words, will con,
sumo two hours
The prosecution will combat all
contentious as to insanity at the time
of the tragedy and seek to show that
Mrs. Bradley was not only RESPONSE
Bile when she fired the shot, but that
all her actions were deliberate, and
that she came to Washington with
the avowed intention of compelling
Senator Brown to marry her Or kill
ing him.

WANT LEWIS CONFESSION
EXCLUDED FROM EVIDENCE.

After o. z. Finley had been exam
ined as to the confessions that Nose
Lewis is alleged to have made to him
in the county Jail relative to the kill
ing of Leland S. Terhune, the attor-
neys for the defense moved to aave
all the alleged confessions removed
from the evidence. This motion and
the argument theron took up practi-
caIly all of today's session of the
district court. AT four O'Clock Judge
Pope was still occupied in hearing
argument and the citation of authori-
ties on the subject.
Finley. DIR. C. NJ. Mayes, Clarence
Ullery, George H. Buss, Barnard Reu-
ter, N. j. Carter and S. W. Crane are
the witnesses that have been examil-
ed in the Lewis case. They have told
of the finding of the body, of the re-
lationship between the murdered man
and the accused and, lastly, of the
alleged confession. The argument of
the defense is that Lewis confession
was wrulg from him by undue infiu-
ence, in that the wife of the murder
ed man was brought before him in
shackles and he was told that she
was accused of completely. and that
unless he told the truth she might
have to suffer

PECOS VALLEY RAIL
ROAD COMPANY FINED.

From Carlsbad Argus.
The pcstofice department has re-
Gently laid down small section of
the postal laws and regulations to the
Eastern Railway of New Mxeico
which has cost that company about
$500 to learn.
The difficulty arose over the failure
the mail south of Roswell as per con-
tract. The company being short of
equipment, would order the mail car,
or perhaps the entire train, set out
at Roswell and returned, the next
trip to the north. This meant that
passengers, baggage and all mail for
every station south of Roswell would
be compelled to wait in the last nam
ed town until the next day, usually
twenty-four hours later.
The matter was finally reported to
the proper authorities and an inves
tigation showed that this had occur
red twenty-one times during the past
year, the penalty for which is having
their pay for the trip forfeited.
1t is a matter which is of material
Importance to the citizens in every
town south of Roswell and one that
insures better service for this end
of the line.
1t may be suggested there are nu-
merous other matters which could be
greatly improved in the way of train
service, if taken up in the proper
manner and with the proper authori-
ties.

terward his opinion that Brown did
not intend to marry her, and advised
her to go away and make the best
of it possible. He said Mrs. Bradley
was much depressed. He stated that
he did not consider her insane, except
ON the subject of Brown. She seemed
to be completely under his influence.
Being asked if she was rational,
Barnes said yes and no-she never
Brown would marry her, but on all
other points she seemed entirely sane.
The next witness was Judge H. P.
Henderson, former law partner of
Brown. He testified that he had sew
-eral interviews with Mrs. Brown, in
which he told her to stay away from
the office. Henderson referred to the
relations between Brown and wife, de-
claring that Brown said to his wife
in the presence of himself and Mrs.
a curse to him, and that he would not
resume relations with her. He testi-
fed that Mrs. Bradley had said to
him that she would be blamed for
everything and that Brown would es-
cape, and yet she had trusted Brown
as the whole people of Utah had when
they gave him the highest Office they
had.
On cross examination Henderson
said that in her interviews with him
Mrs. Bradley seemed rational though
very emotional. He said Brown was a
drinking man. He had seen him
few times so drunk that he staggered.
Speaking of Browns temperament he
said the senator was very odd man,
eccentric to the last degree-he was
always angry with someone.
The last witness of the morning
session was Lyman H. Shrewsbury,
an uncle of Mrs. Bradley. His testi-
mony showed insanity in Mrs Brad
ley's family.

Roosevelt and William ]. Bryan were
in conference a half hour in the Pres
ident's private office today.
Mr.. Bryan afterward remarked that
he had a pleasant chat with the Pres
ident, but said he was not willing to
discuss the details of the interview.
Discussing his plan to have the
government insure depositors in ma
tional banks against loss by reason
of the failure of banks, he said it was
not intended to have the government
collect a fund for this purpose, but it
would be the duty of the government
to make an assessment on all the
banks to meet losses by reason of
failures. This assessment, he said,
would be ininitesismal He felt en-
thusiastic over the prospects of the
ultimate success of this plan. Mr..
Bryan said it was evident that no tar
iff revision could be hoped for from
this congress. He said that he favor
controlled articles.
