PROBE NOW
NEAR END

The grand jury will probably
conclude its work before the end
of this week, according to rumors
issuing from the jury room this
morning. Practically all the cases
needing attention by the jury have
been investigated, and the finish
ing touches will be put on during
the next few days.
That several indictments are to
follow the inquiry seems certain,
from the actions of the jurors and
Prosecuting Attorney McMurray.
The prosecutor slipped sleuth-like
from the jury room this morning,
only to fall into the hands of a
bevy of reporters "Mum's the
word boys" he exclaimed, there's
nothing doing. From now until
the end of the session I guess you
will have to live upon your imag-
nations" Further than that he
would say nothing.
A number of witnesses were
called this morning, presumably
to testify about the social evil.
They were ordered by the jury to
keep their names from the news
papers.

Many talesmen were examined at
the opening of the trial of Cap
tain Peter Conover Hams, on the
charge of numbering William E.
Annis, whom he shot and killed at
the Bayside Yacht club last sum-
mer, when the court today began
its efforts to obtain a jury this
morning.
All who were questioned offer
ed excuses and requests that they
be disqualified. The expectation
that the trial will be OF long dura-

persons willing to serve.
The great publicity given the
case and the wide discussion dur
ing the trail of the captains
brother, T. jenkins Hams, who
was acquitted of completely, has
caused almost everyone in this
county to form an opinion.

JACK JOHNSON
WANTS $4,000
SAYS JEFFRIEs is AFRAID TO
FIGHT HIM AND MUST PUT
THAT AMOUNT UP TO SHOW
GOOD FAITH.
BY AssoeIatds Press

Chicago, Aug. 14--Jack Johnson
declared last night that he would de-
mand a forfeit of $4,000 the day that
the final articles are signed by him
self and Jeffries. You see, don't
believe that Jeffries means to fight,
said the champion. He is simply
looking for more advertising at my
expense and if he wants the publicity
he is going to have to pay the price.
1T would be the simplest thing in
the world for Jeffries to sign UP to
fight me within six months, post a
forfeit of $4,000 and then go on the
stage and make so many times that
amount that he could afford to side
step me and let me claim the forfeit
He knows he can never get into
shape to fight me and 1 am going to
call his bluff the day we get together
to close the match. If he wants to
fight he will not be put to any great
hardship by my asking $4,000 for
felt, and If simply looking for pub
licity, he will hesitate a long time be-
fore he puts up $4,000"

collision between the north and south
bound trains on the Denver and Rio
Grande Railway at Hustled this morn
ing. More than four hundred pas
sengers were on the two trains and
1t is a miracle that more were not
hurt They were wrecked ~at|a curve
and both trains, were running at a
high speed. Many we're hurt in the
stampede to escape from the over
turned trains. The wreck is said to
be the fault of the train crew of the
north bound train in misunderstood
ing orders.
