SOME DARK PLOTS
ARE BEING. .UNEARTHED

Denver, Feb. 29.-Chief of Police
Delaney stated last night that a let
ter written by Alio, the murderer of
the priest, to his son which was
found in the cell occupied by him
while in jail at Colorado Springs,
contained proof that men in six cit
les of the United States were con-
nected with him in the killing of Fa-
ther Leo.

the statement came news that six ar
rests had been made In eastern cit

anti-clerical society, while in Pitts
burg, Orestos Sodi, Tomasso Gala
breso, Orestes Malavai and Malio
Tolmei were locked up for being inn
plicated as members of the society.
The police of New York and Pitts
burg say they have evidence which
connects these men with the killing
of Father Leo.
Arrests have been made in four
other cities, but because the police of
these cities are shadowing other men
no information Is given out as to
who. the arrested men, are.
Delaney said that he was not sure
whether Alio was merely tool of
the anti-clerical society, to which, he
said, all of these men belong, or
whether he was ringleader.
The letter addressed to Alio's son
in Sicily was found concealed in the
blankets of the cot ON which Alio
slept while in Jail at Colorado
Springs. Its contents. translated it
Is asserted. indicate that Father Leo
was the victim of plot Matched out

here to commit the murder, which
was to be the signal for others.

When asked what. interests we're
behind the movement, Mr.: Bryan re-
piled:

vent instructed delegations in the

TO ESTABLISH RIGHTS
Especial to The Sentinel. }

Washington, Feb. 29.-An import
ant conference has been held here be-
tween officials of the interior depart
ment and Representatives of the west
with view to framing a bill de-
signed to take the place of the pres
ent law granting permits for the use
of rights of water through public
lands. for the digging of bitches, ca
nails and other water conduits to pro-
mote irrigation.
Under the law of February 16,
1901, the secretary of the interior
is authorized to revoke such licenses
in his discretion. This authority is
considered by those interested as
working hardship in that they can
not afford to put capital in enter
prises that. are subject to such reg
ulations.
1t is now proposed to draft meas
ures that will authorize the granting
of such permits for a term of years,
which. it is argued. will encourage
the development of large enterprises.
No conclusion was reached at the
meeting.

While A. f. Peterson, cashier for
the Denver & Rio Grande at Bing-

in Grand Junction, is away with his
bride on their honeymoon trip, the
auditors of the road are investigat-
ing Peterson's Office to learn If he
has defaulted to the extent of about
$1,000.
Peterson was married in Salt Lake
City on February and then left
with his bride for trip to Denver
and Chicago.
After Peterson had gone to Salt
Lake City to be married the travel
ing auditor for the company went to
Bingham Junction to make his GUS
tomary check on the business. 1t is
understood he reported to headquar-
ters in Denver that there were evil
dences of shortage. and the COM
pany at once sent man there to
make a thorough Investigation of the

1t will take about two weeks to
~ through all the papers and see

say iht,v are at loss to understand
it. Thev decline to believe the man
guilty u1til after it is proved. They
say I, s vs2y easy for an office to
