has been under guard day and night.
He made use of razor blade, with
which he slashed the neck of a
"tIusty" who was cleaning bis cell,
and then made a rush to get away,
The "trusty," despite his cut, rushed
afte" him and pinioned him and he
was quickly overpowered with the
help OF Deputy Warden Carpen.
When returned to the Jail after his
conviction on Thursday, ALA was
stripped of everything and a complete
new outfit was given him except his
socks. which were turned inside out,
examined and returned to him. He
was then placed in the cell for the
condemned, which had been thor
oughly swept and cleaned and sup
piled with new bedding. This cell
had been occupied by an Italian
named Brunette, who accompanied
Ala to Denver from New York, and
has been held since the assassination

P. N. ARMBRUSItR IS MAYOR
Sentiment Overwhelmingly in Favor
of Herald's Proposition in Fight
Over Change of Glass.
For advancing city class. >.

For advancing city class ......... 261
Against advancing city class $40
The forging figures indicate the
lfesult of the only real contest in the
municipal election held yesterday
and leave no doubt in anyone's mind
as to the sentiment of the commun-
ity in regard to advancing the city's
class from third to second. The prop
osition was defeated in every ward
in the city.
The move was undertaken owing
to mistaken action upon some ones
part that cities OF the third class
have not sufficient power to compel
property owners to connect with sew
ers or to construct laterals. The le-
gal end of this argument was taken
mp by the Herald and the real situa-
ton pointed out. The result shows
that the taxpayers feel such move
ill-advised at this time inasmuch as
the regular census Is to be taken next
year when the city will be advanced
in the regular manner. The defeat
OF the proposition will save the city
over $4,000 in salaries alone during
the coming year.
In the election itself, 1t was mere
matter of form, the primary having
practically settled the matter and
only one ticket, headed by P. NJ. Arm
bruster for mayor, was in the field.
