closest friend here, has received a letter
from the former Daihart citizen now in
jail at Guadala lara. Mexico. in which the

watch upon all his movements.
All his outgoing and incoming mail
is closely read by the jailers before
being mailed, and the only way he can
get a letter out is by bribing one of his
keepers.
The dav Mr.. Cook wrote he had been
in Jail five months and 10 DAYS and it
was plainly evident that nothing was
being done to hasten his trial, notwith-
standing the efforts Of the state depart
ment in his behalf, he said.
Cook writes with difficulty and every
line evinces his deep distress of mind.
1t is feared bv his friends here that his
health is breaking down.
