Attorney General Fletcher has
instituted proceedings to GUST
the Cumberland Telephone and
Telegraph Co, from doing bust
ness in Mississippi, and has as
ISOLATED with him Messrs. Will
bonrne and Neville, attorneys of
Meridian, where the custer suit
has been brought. The suit
seeks to bar the telephone CON-
pany from doing business in the
state and demands statutory fines
of So, 600, 900 for violation of the
states antitrust laws. The
Cumberland bought out its COM
petitor at Meridian, and the At

that this gives him grounds to
GUST the company. If Mr.. Fetch

rid the state of the greatest nui

Justice Harlan Of the supreme
Court in a speech delivered last
week fully endorsed 1t. Hobson
in his position that before many
years this country would become
embroiled with Japan and China.
1t. Hobson has held this position
since his service in the Phillipp-
ines raising the Spanish navy
that went down before Admiral
Dewey's fleet. In this work Hob
son had an opportunity to study
the character of the yellow race
and discovered a desire among
them to control the eastern coun-
try without rivalry. Since that
time the war with Russia has
verified Mr.. Hobson's contention
and we are now approaching a
crisis. Judge Harlan takes the
position that $50. 600, 900 should
be appropriated for the next ten
years in building up the navy to
be able to successfully cope with
our y~ellow..skin antagonist of the
east in the struggle that is sure
to come in. the not distant flu

FOUR or Lac ANIMAs MEXICAN
FAMILY KILLED AND GIRL
MISSING.

THREE OLD PEOPLE AND YOUNG
MAN FOUND WITH HEADS
SPLIT OPEN.

Denver-A Trinidad special to Tho
News Saturday night says: Four
members Of Mexican family were
seventeen-year-old girl, has mystic
riously disappeared, and the Trinidad
police and deputy sheriffs Of Las AMI
mas county are divided in the belief
that she was abducted by the muir
derer or was herself assaulted and
then murdered and her body hidden.
Both theories have their supporters.
The murdered people are:
Cosme Garcia, seventy-five years
old.
Viviana Garcia, his wife. fifty-two
years old.
Torivio Garcia. their son, twenty
five years old.
Luz Gurule, cousin of the Garcias,
sixty years old.
The girl who has so mysteriously
disappeared is Maggie Garcia.
Francisco Martinez, known also as
Ruperto Gonzales and Jesus Barela.
q sheep herder. sixty years old. is sus-
pected of the chine and he is being
sought by deputy sheriffs.
The murder was committed Thurs
day night, and the discovery of(the
bodies was made yesterday morning
by Nicholas Fernandez, neighbor,
who called at the Garcia home, a two
room adobe structure, on the T-Heart
ranch. in the extreme southeast cor
ner Of Las Animas county. The four
people had been killed with an axe,
and their heads almost chopped into
two parts by the murderer.
The disappearance of Maggie Gar
cia II of even more interest than the
murder Of the four people. She was
an unusually attractive girl. and Mar
tinex was very much in love with her.
She repulsed his advances, but SO in
tense did his love-making become that.
not only had he been ordered away
from the house, but 1t was barricaded
At night against him.
II IL the known love Martinez had
for the girl. and the fact that he. too.
has disappeared, that has led the dep
uty sheriffs to suspect him Of the
crime and search for him. The mys-
terious disappearance Of the girl, too.
IL taken as another suspicious point
agAinst Martinez. 1t is generally be-
lieved that the girl fled from the house
and that Martinez captured her and
bound her. then killed the family, and
that he has abducted the girl.
The surrounding country is wild and
rugged and Martinez could with ease
hide himself II he made for north
ern New Mexico. as suspected. he
would find security in the Ration range.
where 1t would be almost impossible
to find him.
The murder is one Of the most ghast.
ly crimes committed in southern Colo
rado. and the disappearance Of the girl
forms one Of the most thrilling mys-
teries ever known in the section.

SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH
ROUTE 10 TO VICTORIA, NYANZA,
THENCE DOWN THE NILE
TO KHARToUM.

Washington. - President Roosevelt
Saturday, in a statement prepared by
Secretiry Walcott Of the Smithsonian
Institution, made his first official an
nouncement, regarding the hunting
trip to Africa on which he will start
within two weeks after he retires from
the presidency.
Following is a synopsis OF the Off
cial statement:
In March, 1909. Theodore Roosevelt
will head a scientific expedition to
Africa, QUILTED by the Smithsonian
Institution and departing from New
York City. This expedition will gather
natural history materials for the gov
ernment collection to de deposited
by the Smithsonian Institution in the
new United States national museum at
Washington, d. C. Besides the Presi-
dent and his son, Kermit Roosevelt,
the personnel of the party, on leaving
New York, w:ll consist of three repre-
sentatives of the Smithsonian Institu-
tion; Maj Edgar A. Mearns, medical
corps, U. S. A., retired; Edmund Hell
Ter and J. Alden Loring. On arriving
in Africa the party will be enlarged by
the addition Of r. J. Cunninghame.
who is now in Africa, preparing the
Presidents outfit He will have charge
Of a number of native porters, who,
with necessary animals, will be formed
into small caravan.
Mr.. Roosevelt and his son will kill
the big game, the skins and skeletons
sot, 1. Nd oh
to the United States by other men,
bers Of the party. Kermit Roosevelt
is to te the official photographer Of
the expedition.
The national collections are def
cient in natural history materials from
the Dark continent, and an effort will
be made by the expedition to gather
general collections in zoology and bot
any to supply some of its deficiencies,
but the main effort will be to collect
the large and vanishing African ami
mails.
No fears need be entertained for the
Presidents safety from the attacks Of
man or beast, as every member Of the
party ia an excellent rifle shot.
The party will reach Mombassa in
April, 1909. No detailed itinerary has
been decided upon, but the general
route will be up the Uganda railway
to Nairodi and Victoria Nyanza. about
$50 miles by rail, thence crossing into
Uganda. and finally passing down the
Nile to Cairo Much of the hunting
will be done in British East Africa,
where the Uganda railroad can be
used as a base Of supplies and means
of ready transportation. At least one
great mountain. possibly Mount Kenia,
will he visited.
Khartoum will be reached, II all goes
well, about April, 1910. The expedi-
tion may be expected to spend about
one year on African soil.
