SISTER WOULD
SAVE BROTHER
Mrs. Fletcher to
Plead With Gov
ernOr
TO STAY EXECUTION
Of Rosario Emilio, Sentenced
to Die For Shooting His
Sweetheart.
STAY EXECUTION

Mrs Grace Fletcher of Chaves
County, arrived in the Capital last
evening and will plead with the Gov
ernor to save the life of her brother.
Rosario Emilio sentenced to hang
March 22 for the murder of his sweet
heart two years ago.
What success sne will have, if any,
is matter of doubt as the Governor
heretofore has made it a practice
never TO interfere with a death sen
tence after fair and impartial jury
trial and has allowed several men to
hang after considerable pressure had
been brought to bear for a commuta-
tion Of sentence.
Has Not Seen Governor.
Mrs. Fletcher is registered at the
Claire Hotel She has not yet inter.
viewed the Governor. When newspa.
per men called during the morning she
was not at the hotel and the clerk
was unable to say where she had gone.
1t Is understood that the sister will
first ask that the boys sentence be
commuted to life Imprisonment and if
She fails in that, it is said, she will
ask that respite lie granted in order
that the case may be carried to the
Supreme Court. 1t is understood that
proceedings have already been begun
for re-haering in the case and for
carrying it to the Supreme Court.
History Of the Crime.
The killing took place about two
years ago ten miles out of Lincoln on
the road to Roswell. Emilio was then
just entering manhood. The woman
he killed was his senior by number
of years. 1t is said they had been
friends since the boy was about six
teen years old.
According to reports the woman left
Lincoln intent upon going 10 Roswell
ertooE thesfhnt.n thHesfhntn9 rppp rpppQA 8 wagon with her
and she mounted the horse with him,
Shooting Probably Followed Quarrel
The boy then rode down the road
for some distance talking to the wom
an What passed between them is
not known. 1t Is then asserted, the
boy shot the woman with a pistol
first through the head and ther
through the heart killing her instant
| ly. The defense attempted to show
that the woman took her own life fol
lowing a quarrel with Emilio.
Another ground upon which lenien
cy will be asked is the assertion tina
prior to the trial, a member of th'
jury expressed himself strongly II
favor of the boys conviction. This
it is asserted, is proof that the tria
was not a fair and impartial one. |
is also said a change of venue shoul
have been granted.
Emilio is now in the Lincoln Cour
ty jail awaiting execution. For som
time he was prisoner in the pen
: tentiary near this place for safe keel
ing.

STATE PRESENTING
ITS SIDE Of CASE
In the Thaw Trial
---Has Many Wit
nesses
------------.
DELMAS BATTLES JEROME
Objections Of Counsel For
Defendant Sustained By
Court.--Case Near Close.

New York, March 11.-With the
Thaw trial entering upon its eighth
week today District Attorney Jerome
began the real work of the prosecu-
ton, offering testimony in rebuttal of
the defense built up by Thaw's attor-
neys.
State Introduces First Witness.
The first witness called today by
Jerome was Frederick w. Longfellow
one Of the private attorneys for the
Thaw family.
Jerome wished to prove by Long
fellow that Harry Thaw, more than
two years before Evelyn Nesbit told
him the story which is said to have
unbalanced his mind, knew Of all the
evil practices of men in New York.
Estopped From Testifyng.
Jerome also asked Longfellow about
his service of papers on Thaw in the
suit Of Ethel Thomas. On an objec-
ton by Attorney Delmas, l-ongfellow
WAS GSLOppCl Hum SlNlliS, <bhy uShii'tN
testimony as to this suit upon the
ground that he was acting as Thaw's
counsel and his dealing with him
were therefore confidential.
Jerome Baffed.
Blocked at every turn by objections
from Counsel Delmas in obtaining tes-
timony from Longfelow, Jerome
WEIGHED to the testimony of police
men who saw Thaw on the night OF
his arrest and who declared that his
actions to them seemed to be those OF
a rational man.
DeImas Questioned Witness.
Delmas asked one of the officers II
he had not overheard Thaw in his cell
say he had heard the voices of women
crying out. The officer said that there

Petitions Are Deceivine.
There are seventeen precincts In
Union County, 1t would take six pre-.
cincts for Foraker County from the
north end. The result to Union Coun

CALIFORNIA IS
MAKING MISTAKE
In LegisIating Against Japanese
Thinks President Roosevelt VINO
Interposes Objection.

Sacramento, Calf, March 11.-Gov-
ernor Gillette sent to the Legislative
Assembly today message from Presi-
dent Roosevelt stating that the recent
action of the California Legislature
would have a most unfortunate effect
upon the Presidents effort to secure
the exclusion of Japanese laborers by
a friendly agreement.
President Roosevelt has asked Gov
ernor Gillette to secure suspension
of further action until the receipt o.
a letter from him. The Governor
asked the Assembly to give the mat

Portland, Maine, March 1l.-Six
Maine cities are holding elections to-

close contests are expected.

WANT AMNESTY FOR
POLITICAL PRISONERS
Radicals and constitutionbI Demo.
Gratis Fail to Get Together on
Manner of Raising Question.

st. Petersburg, March 1.-THE Rad
ical party is hopelessly at odds regard
ing the manner of raising the ques-
tion of amnesty for political prison
ers. The Socialists persist in forcing
1t Immediately to the front In the ma
ture of an open declaration to the
people which practically would be
an appeal for revolution.
A caucus of the Socialists, revolu-
tionists and members of the peasant
league last night rejected this as
we'll as the proposition to make an
appeal or demand to the emperor and
it was decided to introduce regular
bill providing amnesty for political
prisoners.
This is probably unconstitutional
and hence unacceptable to the Con
stitutional Democrats. In the mean
time the reactionists campaign for
the progation Of parliament under
any pretense is in full swing.

BUSY DAYS FOR

Many Measures to
be Reported and
Considered
PRESIDENT SP|Ess I'LL
And Council Adjourned Af-
ter Brief Session Until
Tomorrow.

The legislature convened this after
noon for the final ten days of the
Thirty-seventh Assembly. Between
now and the time when the gavel In
the Council and in the House shall
fall for the last time, there is much
work to be done both on the floors
of the respective branches and in the
committees. The work, however, Is
well in hand and there now exist no
reason for a doubt that all OF the mat
tiers desired by the people will receive
full consideration and action. During
the respite from last Friday until to-
day, many of the committees have
been in almost constant session with
the result that all bills in their hands
are about ready for reporting.
The Judiciary Committee OF the
Council, the same committee of the
House and the House Finance Com
mittee and Committee on Territorial
Affairs, were amongst the busiest
They received the bulk of the meas
ures for consideration and as re-
suit were compelled to work harder
The railroad committees OF botn
Houses have also been active and II
is understood they will have several
renorts to make during the present
week.
Considerable interest centers jus
at present in the action which tne
Council is likely to take on the three
cent rate bill introduced in the House
Friday afternoon by Mr.. Gallegos anc
which passed that body after parlla

will probably hold the record for thl;

Count Won Moltke, Prince Philip Eu-

Count Won Moltke, who brought the
action to clear his reputation, was for
