in progress by Jules Cambon, the
French ambassador at Berlin, and
Herr Won Kidderlein- Waschter, the

TRIPLE MURDERER ENJOYS
NOTORIETY OF HIS DEED,

William Lee Confessed That He Killed
His Father, Mother
and Brother.
(By Special Leased Wire to New Mexican)
Jeffersonville, Ind, Aug, 2S.-Many
newspaper correspondents and photo
graphers tried today to see William
Lee, self-confessed slayer of his faith
er, mother and brother at Bonneville,
Ind, but the Indiana refornatory Of
ficials refused to allow Lee to be seen,
as the court has ordered that he be
kept in solitary confinement.
Lee retired early last night and
slept soupdly until he was awakened
this morning for breakfast. He has
not made any confession since the one
he made to the officers while he was
confined in the Jail at Evansville,
when he said he believed his parents
intended killing him and thought he
would "beat the old man to it."
Those who have been guarding him
say Lee appears to enjoy the notoriety
that has come to him.

PRICES IMPROVED DECIDEDLY
ON WALL STREET
But There Was a Recession at
Noon, When Canadian Pacific
Dropped Three Points.

(By Special Leased Wire TO New Mexicaa)
New York, Aug. 2S.-With no appar.
ent change in the financial situation,
to which revival of the speculative
sentiment could be traced, prices i'm
proved decidedly during the morning
session on the Stock Exchange. A
decline of three points in Canadian
Pacific, due probably to foreign SELL
ing, stopped the upward movement
shortly before noon, and the entire
list reacted, Union Pacific, Reading,
United States Steel and Amalgamated
Copper falling back a point or more
The recessions generally were not
sufficient to cancel the earlier gains
entirely. The firmness shown by the
market was ascribed to the improved
labor situation as well as to short
covering.
Bonds were irregular.
Bulls Best Bears.
New York, Aug. 2S.-Trading was
on very small scale during the late
afternoon. but the market displayed a
good undertone, the list rising to the
high prices of the forenoon, or above.
The weakness at midday was at
tributed to a vigorous bear attack,
which was abandoned when support
ing orders were placed.
The market closed firm.
Prices fluctuated to within an ex-
tremely narrow range in the closing
hours. The bulls seemed content with
today's results, which showed pretty
generally advances of 1 and points,
and the bears, after being repulsed
several times, were disposed to await
more opportune time for hammer
ing the market.

girl caught the child by the hand, in
the rush for the steps. The little one
stumbled and fell. Nellie stopped to

how soon her own end would come.
She said she prayed all the time and

CRIMINAL LAW and JURY

Continued from Page One)
to wife as witness against her hus
band, and to qualify her as fully as any
other witness against her husband, or
for him, with the single exception that
she be not permitted to disclose any
thing or any communication made to
her by her husband at any time before
the commission of the crime or the act
which is the subject of the trial or
suit.
AS the law now stands, wife may
be the only eye witness to the butch
cry of every member of her family by
her husband; she may stand by and
see her children killed or otherwise
feloniously abused by her husband, and
yet she is not qualified to testify
against him, to what she saw. In
stances and illustrations of the bar
barity of this rule occurring in our
own state have been called to our
attention, of where a wife witnessed
the killing of her own child by her
husband, and the. abuse of her own
daughters by her husband and their
step-father. This ancient relic of the
barbarity of the common law ought
not to exist in this day. A wife now
cannot testify against her husband to
prove her first marriage with him on
a charge of bigamy The decisions
unfolding this ancient rule are pre-
tended to be based on the public pol
icy involved in preserving the con-
fidences of the marriage relation, and
when we come to think of it in all
such cases, the household is already
disrupted and surely the public policy
involved in preserving the sacredness
of marital confidence cannot exceed
the Importance of the public policy in
volved in the enforcement of the law
Salus populi suprema lex is the first
maxim of the law, and exceeds In i'm
portance all others. There is really
no danger that wife will falsely &C
cuse her husband and II guilty Of 9
, crime committed in her presence he
ought not to be allowed to object tc
! her testifying to what she saw.
Ninth: We further suggest that ths
