BANKER RICkEY

nanCier to Be Pushed
at Carson.
RECEIVER TO TAKE CHARGE
BETTER FEELING PREVAILS AT
coLDFIELD.

Carson, New, Feb. 20.-Judge Langan
arrived in this city this morning and
with the sheriff drew a new grand jury
which is to consider the case of Banker
Hickey. The grand jury viii meet next
Monday, as Saturday. being legal hol-
iday there would be little more than
organization perfected by meeting be-
fore that time. District Attorney Rob-
erts is preparing additional evidence in
the case TO present to the body. when
II convenes.
Attorney General Stoddard this morn
ing stated that he would ask the bank
commission for authority to demand
the appointment of a receiver for the
State bank In speaking of the mat
ter. he said:
Necessity for Receiver.
Il believe that the best thing to pro-
tect the interests Of all concerned is the
appointment of a receiver. An attach
ment for a large amount was filed at
the local branch yesterday, and l have
been told that others will be filed at
Blair and there are now several on the
bank at Tonopah. AS a protection 20
all depositors, and other creditors of the
bank, / have concluded that it will be
best for a receiver tc be appointed at
once, and I will ask the state bank
commission TO authorize me to bring
such an action.
Plan Worked Out.
Il have now worked out a complete
plan for handling the banks If they go
into the hands of a receiver. but it is
likely that Judge Langan will confer
with myself and also the depOsitOrs in
regard to the matter. Meanwhile ev-
erything possible must be done to con-
serve the interests of the people"

DETENTION HOME
PLANS DELAYED
Friends of Movement Object to
Tactics of County Com
miSSi0nerS.
INSTITUTION NEEDED NOW
TWO OF THE OFFICIALS ARE OUT
OF THE CITY.

Owing to the absence from the city
of County Commissioners Mackay and
Cosgriff, the establishment of a deten-
been somewhat delayed 1t is expect
ed. however. that within a month some
definite action will be taken.
Judge Gowans said yesterday that he
hoped that the commissioners would
not delay matters much longer, as the
need of a home is most urgent.
The site selected by Judge Gowans
is the old Granite Stake academy,
near Eleventh East and Sixteenth
South streets There is tan acre
and the judge says that there are now
enough boys in the city, wards of the
court, sufficient to work the farm.
There are many boys said the
Judge, who are not bad enough to go
to the state industrial school at Ogden.
and who are too bad to be trusted to
wander around alone. Under present
conditions we simply release them on
probation and require them to report
once a week. This system is unsatis-
factory and we are in urgent need of
a place where these boys can be kept
away from mischief The class of boys
simply need discipline and a place to
live which will keep them away from
their present environments. If we
send them out in the country, make
them obey certain simple rules, and
make them do honest work under a SUI
perintendent who understands boys,
much good can be accomplished and
many a boy saved from a life of dissi-
patton and crime
Object to Delay.
That a detention home will be estab-
lished seems assured, but those inter
ested in the work are inclined to CEN
sure the board of county commission
ers for its hardness in carrying out the
recommendation Of the state juvenile
court commission. Although all the
members of the board have signified
their approval of the scheme, yet no ac-
ton has been taken by that body with
the exception of requesting Judge Cow
ans to select suitable site and report
The judge made his report more than
two weeks ago and that is the last
that has been heard of the matter.
Chairman Mackay of the board is
expected to return to the city within
two weeks, and with Commissioner
Clinton he may decide to make a move,
even If the other member of the board,
]. B. COsgriff is not in the city
Besides having the selection of a site
and the management of the home, the
commissioners may employ a superin-
tendent at a salary of not TO exceed
500 a. month. The law says that the
city must pay its share of maintaining
the Institution, this amount to be de-
termined by the proportion of the num-
Der of boys sent from the city to that
sent from the county. The city. how
ever, has no voice in the management,
and neither has the juvenile court
commission. This is thought to be a
rather serious defect i'm the law and an
effort to remedy it will be made when
the next legislature meets.

MATCH ON THE WATER
 MADE AN EXPLOSION
Investigation of the Disaster at Mare
 Island Navy Yard.

Vallejo, Sept. 19.-An inquiry board
 has been appointed to investigate the
 gasoline explosion which occurred at
 the Mare Island navy yards yester-
 day, resulting in the death of Ma
 chinist Theodore May and the injury
 of several men employed about the
 submarine boats Grampus and Pike.
 It did not complete it's work today
 and the hearing was adjourned until
 Monday.
 As far as could be ascertained from the witnesses examined the ex- plosiOn resulted from the throwing of
 a lighted match into the water, which was covered with a film of gasoline, leakage and waste from the filling of the tanks of the submarines. This took fire and the flames spread quickly to the store of gasoline on the lighter alongside the vessels; causing the explosion.
 May sprang into the water to es- cape the flames but was drowned as he could not swim. Another per son, Fred Martin. a young peddler, is missing, and it is thought he may have been killed. All of the injured are doing well and no further fla talities are liable to result.

OFFICERS START AFTER HIM

San Jose, Calif., Sept. 19.-Sheriff LangfOrd. who went to Sacramento to procure acquisition papers for Wm. Hatfield. the Texas suspect, believed to be James c. Durham, who murdered six people near Campbell, this county, twelve years ago, returned this even ing and tomorrow he and Deputy Sher- if Burlington will start for Sherman. Texas, to bring the suspect here for trial.
 The sheriff and Dunham's acquain tances are fully convinced that the suspect is the right man, holding it is almost impossible for two different men to so closely resemble each other in height features and other points and both have similar scars on the left foot and similar unusual depres- sions at the junction of the nose and forehead.
 Two witnesses of the shooting are still living here, the hired man at a ranch whom Dunham also attempted to murder and an orchardist on an ads joining farm. A man who saw Dun- ham riding away after the murders, is also residing here.

The Swift Steamer Mduretdnid Got IptO
 Trouble in Mid=0Cean
In the Midst of Terrific Storm a Broken Propeller Blade Was Flung Against the Ship With Force That Threatened Destruction.

New York, Sept. 19.-For more than half hour last Wednesday the great turbine steamer Mauretania, with all her cabins filled with frightened pass engers, rolled and pitched helplessly in i1nid-ocean, with waves constantly breaking over her decks. She had run into a storm hours before. but had | been kept under headway until one of her propeller blades flew off with a crash that alarmed every one on board.
 So tremendous was the force of the blow which the lossened propeller dealt the ship that the whole middle section seemed to rise, and the flooring buc-
 kled until Jacks from carpet were hurled against the ceilings and passen- gers were thrown about the cabins. The engines were stopped at once and

deemed sufficient to clear him of suspicion of an impropriety, there is distinct feeling here tonight that he will be eliminated from consid- eration as a speaker for the republi- can national ticket.
 Indications that such move is on foot appeared in an announcement from the headquarters of Herbert Parsons, chairman of the New York county committee, that Governor Hughes had been selected to make the speech at a meeting to be held in Camp Taft in this city October l. It had been announced previously that Senator FOraker had accepted an invitation to be the principal speaker of the meeting. In giving out the fact that Governor Hughes would address the meeting on Octo- Der 1st, no mention was made of Senator Foraker and in reply to di- rect questioning it was said at the county headquarters that it was not known whether Foraker would ap- pear with Governor Hughes.
 In republican and democratic po- litical circles today no subject has btGll hlSNuSSth NlLll lllt dNlulIN IIlaL characterized the consideration of the Foraker ArchbOld letters. Republi- cans of high standing and many dem ocrats as well, had no hesitancy in saying that they believed Senator FOraker had not had any connec- ton with the Stsndard Oil company which he believed to be improper. At the same time it was said that the publication of the letters during the heat of a presidential campaign was unfortunate for him and his political associates. It was declared that his availability as an effective campaign worker is at an end, even if his appearance on the stump would not prove damaging to the cause he un- dertook to champion.
 Chairman Hitchcock of the repub- lican shational committee was asked many questions respecting the prob able course of the Taft managers concerning Senator Foraker. He de- clined to express his opinion and in fact. declined to answer questions.
