negro. was partially identified today
as the slayer Of Charles ID. Hitler, who
was shot In defending his daughters
from an intruder who entered through
their bedroom window
Hitler was chief local freight clerk
Of the Rock Island railroad. He was
aroused at an early hour by the
screams of his daughters Florence,
aged 10 and Clarice aged IS. who
slept together. Mr. Hitler rushed 10
the bedroom and grapped with the
man. They rolled down the stairs
locked IN each others arms. Then
the intruder began firing, three bull
lets entering the railroad mans body.
His grasp relaxed and the murderer
fled the police We're notified at
once and soon arrested Jones as he
was boarding a car During four
hour "-Weating'' the negro succeeded
in concCaling bullet wound in his
hand but blood from the injury at
length ricl1led down his wrist and
dropped upon the floor. An exami-
alton convinced the police that the
wound was fresh and they believe
that while Jones was grappling with
Hitler and had his arm around Hill
ler's back a bullet from the negros
revolver passed through the white
mans body and entered Jones hand.
Florence Hitler told the police she
was awakened by feeling a rough
beard against her face She knew
that the man was a negro and though
she did not identify Jones as the man,
she thought his clothing rcsembled
that worn by her fathers assailant
Mrs Elizabeth McNabb identified
Jones az the man who followed her
Y1f ft b. V4p
Nahh said that the negro entered her
home and found his way to the bed
room where she and her daughter
were sleeping He laid his hand on
the lattcr's arm and she awoke and
screamed. This frightened the in
iruder away. The police declare he
went directly to the Hitler home.

ing of the action taken by the Denver
republicans, at their convention. ana
believing that an attempt VIII be made
by their big delegation of 1S3 to force
their views upon the state convention,
have stated that unless the convention
followed more progressive course.
they could not accept places on the
ticket
In order to avoid any embarrass-
ment to them it is reported tonight
that an effort will be made to have
a report from the platform commit
tee before nominations are taken up.
Individual members of the party at
tending the convention are much at
sea on the question of endorsing Sem
ator Guggenheim. Several of the
county conventions made no mention
of him whatever, others approved OF
his acts in the senate looking to the
upbuilding of Colorado.
The only candidate for the nomina-
tion for governor who has come out
squarely as q supporter of Roosevelt
policies is NJ. d. Vincent of Paonia.
When Colonel Roosevelt was in Dem
Yer several weeks ago as the guest of
the Cattle Growers association, Mr.
Vincent made q speech recounting the
acts Of the Roosevelt administration
and stating Roosevelt policies as he
understood them. Colonel Roosevelt,
who followed, said that Vincent had
stated his policies better than he
could have stated them himself. and
intimated that his friends in Colorado
could hardly do better than vote for
Vincent.
This gave Vincent great boost
among his friends along the western
slope, but they could do little toward
getting delegates instructed for him.
There are number OF other candi-
dates.
Late tonight it appeared that the
conventions choice for the governor

MAY WIPE OUT POSTAL
DEFICIT IN YEAR OR TWO.

Mr.. Hitchcock's well known prefer
ence to discuss the postottice depart
ment rather than politics was quite
evident last night and he spoke with
considerable enthusiasm of the pro
sress made toward placing the de-
partment on self-sustaining basis
We have succeeded in cutting down
the deficit from some seventeen mil
lions to about six millions and l am
confident that in one year more, on
two years at the most, we shall be
able to eliminate the remaining siN
millions" he said. THE policy of the
department is to bring the heads oi
the departments into closer unity. 10
secure better cooperation and team
work. and to economize in the little
things with some 10000 employees
all watching out for the leaks and
attending to the small savings which
are everywhere possible, the result is
an economy in the administration Of
the whole system which aggregates
Il considerable sum. Recently IN
Washington we assembled the depart
ment heads and officials from all over
the country and had long session
in which every phase of the work
was discussed and the whole PROPOSE
tion threshed out in every detail 1he
result of that conference is already
apparent. Economical methods IN
the small details are being introduc-
ed in all OF the thousands of offices
throughout the country with the most
satisfactory and gratifying results.
With every postmaster and employc
anxious to make a good showing Tor
his particular office and to conduct
its business in business like manner
the total result cannot help but SHOW
an aggregate saving OF large dimcn-
Sions.
Mr.. Hitchcock preferred not go eN-
press any further opinion On The
question Of the carrying of the maga-
zines and periodicals which It has been
alleged have proved burden on the
department aud helped increase the
deficit. or the equally mooted Ques-
ton rs To the volume OF franked mat
ter transported and its effect ON the
deficit. Both questions have been
much discussed on both sides. said
the postmaster general Il am not
going into those matters further than
To refer To the reports already COM
piled and made by department eN-
perts. My aim is 20 bring economy IN
to the individual offices by watching
the smaller items and the little wastes
which foot up into big figures in the
total"
My chief aim is to see the postal
deficit abolished while / am IN oitice
and at the rate we are going I am
confident. as / said. that one year or
two years at most will see this ae-
complished.'
