 Capt Kinnard has asked that his company be mustered out of service, saying he does not feel he could order his men to do guard duty safely if they would be subject to conviction by civil authorities for obeying mili- tary orders.

CONVICTED AMERICAN GETS RE- PRIEVE UNTIL WEDNES-
 DAY, NOVEMBER 23.
IS WIFE STILL LIVING2
London Officials Deny That Report From Philadelphia Had Any ln- fIuence Upon Court in Grant
 ing Stay of Execution.

London, Nov. 8.-The date of the execution by hanging of Dr. Hawley H. Crippen, the American doctor, con- victed of murdering his wife, Belle Elmore, a music hall singer, was post poned two weeks or more.
 No reason has been made public. but it is denied in official circles that the report from Philadelphia that the woman is alive and in hiding near Chicago, in diabolical plot to kill Crippen legally, had anything to do with the postponement. Crippen, who was to have been hanged Tuesday. may be executed Wednesday, Novem- Der 23 No definite day has been set, however.
 Crippen was overjoyed when the high sheriff informed him of the post ponement.
 q believe that something will yet intervene to prove my innocence" he declared The condemned man was cautious against letting his hopes mount too high.
 The postponement was ordered of ficially by the home office, which is taken by many to indicate that Home Secretary Winston Churchill will at least give the case a thorough hear ing before he allows Crippen to go to the gallows.
 Later in the day it was semi-official- ly announced that the execution would take place November 23 unless the home secretary should decide to grant a communication or pardon to the wife murderer.
 Solicitor Newman, who has repre- scented Crippen ever since the latter was arrested at Father Point, Quebec, is busily engaged with the other law yers in drafting a petition to Home Secretary Winston Churchill asking either that he grant an unconditional pardon to Crippen or that he com mute the sentence to life imprison- ment
 The home secretary is now the only official with power to save Crippen from the gallows. While it is be- lieved Churchill will investigate the case thoroughly, it is hardly likely he will interfere to save the prisoner.

No Fans Will Be Necessary
When Sheldon Is Com

AIR TO BE FORCED
THROUGH THE PIPES

Although hotels have often been
built Of hot air. the New Sheldon will
have cold air as a special feature.
Cold air is very desirable in summer,
especially in a dining room. and the
New Sheldon will have lots of it.
A three cornered cooling plant is be-
ing built. 1t will cool water cool
food and cool air. The new hotel not
only will have its own ice making
plant, the most model in the state but
will cool water by the artificial route
and cool air, as well. The refrigerators
will be supplied with ice the drinking
water will run through cold pipes, and
the air will be pumped into the big
dining room through an iced shaft
At the rear of the structure a big
electric fan will be installed. This will
force air through the cooling appa-
ratus and into the dining room by way
the first thing of the kind in this To-
cality. Already work of building the
ice plant is well under way.
The third car of furniture will ar
rive next week from Grand Rapids
Marble is being placed in the lobby.
and an electric freight elevator in

The lobby and the lobby stairway
will be marble and the walls will be

THE VOTERS
CHOOSE BETWEEN THE
TWO GREAT PARTIES

sixth Missouri district, to select a sue
| cessor to the late David De Almond,
| Republican, Clement c. Dickinson, a
Democrat, was carried into office by a
! substantial majority. In the fourteenth
Massachusetts district, a rock bound
Republican section, Eugene Foss, Dem
ocrat was elected to succeed the late
William c. Lowering, Republican. An
other stirring contest occurred in the
thirty-second New York district,
where James B. Havens, Democrat, was
elected to succeed the late James B.
Perkins, Republican.
If the Republican leaders are dis
mayed at these happenings, they are
showing no indications of fear. and ex-
press equal confidence at controlling
the next house.
Insurgent Movement.
The insurgent movement, which
manifested itself so much in the last
session Of congress. does not appear to
have spread with any great rapidfty.
From the returns number of the
states where this movement flourishes
the insurgents and regulars seem to
have broken about even. Kansas and
Idaho are the two exceptions
The insurgents in these states seem
to have complete control of the sftua-
ton In Iowa, however. there is a
strong fight, and. where the Republi-
can regulars gained the nominations.
the insurgents have placed independent
candidates in the field. Minnesota
Wisconsin and Indiana are wholly in
surgent while the movement is strong
in Washington. Oregon and California
The leaders feel confident, however,
that when the returns are counted on
election day, they will snow q balance
in favor Of the Republicans, whether
regular or inSurgent.
To Elect IS Governors.
In socalled pivotal states, the cam
paign has been exceedingly bitter IN
the election to be held Tuesday, IS
states in the union will select govern
ernors, while SO will elect state Iegisla-
lures. The Democrats will make a.
vigorous fight to get majority of the
state legislatures in order to insure a
majority in the senate, in the next cSu-
greSs. At the present time there Is q
Republican majority of &c in the upper
house. Thirty-one terms expire this
year and the new state legisla lures
will select successors when they con-
vene in January. OF the 81 whose
terms expire, "a are Republicans.
New York Fight.
The fight has been an extremely bit
ter one in New York state. Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt has stumped the
state for Henry L. Stimson and has
denounced the Democratic candidate,
John E. Dix, as the representative of
Tammany Hall and the Wall street in
terests. Hearst has directed his fire
mainly against the Democrats ticket.
He claims Ii at if the Democ"a ate par
ty is put 7 Low er, Tammdny Hall will
control the state the same as it does
New York City.
The Democrats are not idle They
are blaming the Republicans for the
high cost of living, which is due, they
say, to the tariff. Their main batter
les, however, are leveled against Col.
Roosevelt. They claim that Stimson is
merely his puppet.

Palace of Chance Is Planned
In Retaliation for Agita-
tiDn-Juarez Merchants
to Take UP Fight.

With renewed action of the Ell PasO
Merchants league against keno gam
bling. comes the report that one Of the
most valuable properties in Ciudad
Juarez may be leased for the erection
of keno palace, and also that Juarez
merchants are to organize against the
"pikers' game"
An Alderete, said to be BenignO AL
derete, father Of Isaac Alderete, CLERK
Of the FL Paso district court, is bidding
for a property at Avenida Lerdo and
Gale Concrete, owned by George G.
Sauer, Of FL Paso.
Juarez merchants are planning to or
ganize q chamber Of commerce, the
movement being headed by Camilo Ar
gueIles first citizen and old resident
of the city, and man of means and in
fluence. Mr.. Arguelles, who is a per-
sonal friend Of president Diaz and
minister Creel, is strongly opposed to
keno gambling, and it is understood
that one Of the first moves of the new
organization viii be directed to sup
pressing it.
Property is on Principal Street.
The property at Avenida Lerdo and
Gale Concrete is the most prominent
and valuable in the city, fronting on
the principal street and the avenue
along which the street cars approach
from FL Paso. Mr. Sauer says that dis
trict clerk Ike Alderete's father, who

lives at Ysleta, is bidding on the prop
erty against a banking and brokerage
firm, the name Of which he may not
disclose. Originally the property was
intended for store sites, and it is I'M
derstood in Juarez that the gambling
project will win over the legitimate
money handling.
Some months ago the question of
ownership of a certain keno joint was
raised, and a man by the name of Al
derete was found to hold the license.
District clerk Ike Alderete said it was
his father.
1t, has been suggested that the FL
Paso Merchants league offer the city
of Juarez the amount paid in taxes by
the two keno houses, on condition that
they be closed and kept closed. Each
casino pays a monthly $500, in Mexican
currency, to the city, and $50 each
month is consumed in government
stamps. That would mean $3.50 gold
each month for the two houses.
Does Not Help Trade.
Merchants of Juarez derive little or
no trade attracted by the keno houses
according to the consensus of opinion
But it is doubted if any merchants or
professional men will put themselves
on record except through massed &C

it is doubted if action will be taken by

games are rarely frequented by Next

tire income from Ell Paso's pocket, the
