The mayor shows more signs of ir-
ritability than he has hitherto dis
played. He expresses the desire that
his wife be almost constantly with

lowed to remain at her husband g

Today it was learned that the chief
efforts of the physicians all day yes

this morning it was officially au

Grand Junction.
THE miners effects were moved
by two of McNeils teamsters and my
deputies tell me that due care was
used and that the furniture was not
dumped over bank or broken in
moving. The deputies presumed that
the teamsters were acting as a re-
suit of McNeips legal advice and as
no violence was offered or protests
made there was no interference.
Il made inquiries of my men as
to whether the houses were broken
open, and they said the doors were
not locked and that the furniture and
other stuff was taken out and placed
where the miners had their tents
with proper care. If anyone wants
to ask any questions | am ready to
answer to the best of my knowledge.
As soon as Mr.. Schrader had con-
cluded his statement calls were made
for Eli NJ. Gross. who had been most
active in the charges against Sheriff
Schrader. He took the platform and
reiterated his charges.
