Expert Gives Here the Most
Approved Methods for Use
in Such an Emergency.

IT. HE alarming number Of fatal
drowning accidents chronicled
during the last few days in places
where help was near at hand indicates
such a widespread ignorance Of the
proper methods OF rescue that a few
pointers on the subject may prove very
valuable. It is not a difficult matter
for even moderately good swimmer to
assist one in danger, provided he knows
what to do, and it is quite certain that
many victims lose their lives simply be-
cause the correct system Of resuscita-
ton is not generally understood.
To begin with, the prevalent belief
that drowning person viii bob Up three
times before sinking finally is absolute
ly unfounded. Very often the strugger
will keep afloat for a few seconds. and
then disappear without coming to the
surface again. Evidently, then. the habit
Of waiting for the second or third view
Of the drowner before going to his as
sistance is a mistake that may prove
fatal. One should plunge in without hes
tation at the first hint of danger.
This. however, does not mean that one
should undertake a rescue recklessly
and thoughtlessly. On the contrary.
few seconds devoted TO sizing up tn
situation will increase tenfold the
chances OF success. Particularly when
in tidal or current water it is all i'm
rortant to figure out rapidly where the
flow is likely TO carry one, and where
the best landing can be made. This is
ascertained at a glance and gives one
definite plan of action. It is essential
TO keep cool and TO think rapidly. Also.
II is poor policy, If one is fully clothed,
10 dive in before removing at least the
outer garments and shoes The move
ments are so impeded by wet and cling
ing materials that the time lost in UNI
dressing will more than be made up by
the greater speed obtainable when I'M
encountered, and the freedom OF limbs
when one comes to supporting an ex-
hausted or unconscious person will
greatly minimize the possibility of being
dragged under.
Two different cases have to be con-
sidered in life saving-accidents In which
the victim has sunk and is lost to sight
and accidents in which he is still above
water and either played out or strug-

An armed guard escorted his sue

The appointment of Hits and his
confirmation, by the board Of super

WASHINGTON. Dec. 15.-Not on
ly are names of men "higber up" in
the dynamiting conspiracy now in the
possession of the department Of JUS
tice, but it has evidence in their own
handwriting connecting them directly
with the McNamaras.
The above statment was made here
today by an official who has seen the
evidence and it is stated further on
the same authority that several prom
inent labor officials have made ad-
vances to the department of justice
for the purpose Of securing immun-
ity. So far none of these overtures
have been accepted. The policy of the
department will be to avoid granting
immunity and punish every man who
has been caught in the nationwide
dragnet.

IN RE THE COOP.
MILL "MUDDLE''
DURANGO HERALD,

DURANGO HERALD,
Gentlemen:
Kindly put this before your read
ers, relative to the alleged "muddled
affairs of the Co.-op. Mill company,
after which l trust the local press
will be without assistance from mis-
leading sources causing need for cor
rection, and that will have discharg-
ed what friendly offices | owe them
in this respect.
Mrs. Armstrong; interest, and
that of her attorney, in the mill
company's affairs, is limited TO OBJ
tanning payment of a trust deed of
indebtedness. The directors finding
themselves unable to pay proposed to
turn the property back. For this they
needed stockholders meeting, which
they were for good while unable to
get. Proxies were necessary, because
stockholders would not come. No one
had time to get them, and / had to
take time. Mrs. Armstrong could fore
close. but the expense and delay made
the stockholders meeting better.
When enough proxies was obtained,
the president, R. E. Gaines, was no.
titled, and he called together those
he could to regular adjourned day
of meeting, which was held by the
company's officers and directors, not
myself. Those holding proxies were
left to their own judgment in voting,
after hearing the business at the
meeting. Nothing was done or ac-
corded by the meeting, but what Mrs.
Armstrong could obtain by law with
out the meeting, except she was saved
the expense Of unnecessary foreclos-
ure.
Some of the most prominent bus
mess men of the community were
present, and voted as their own judg-
ment dictated. Among these, all
holding proxies, were r. E. Gaines,
j. w. Waters, F. d. Bovee, F. A.
Rodecker, J. W. Turner, George. o.
bert and others.
No one saw anything improper or
sinister in the business proposed to
the meeting, except your informant,
and one or two more, and one Of
those has since expressed himself that
he did not understand. The question

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Dec. 15.-
The sheriff today hanged the Rev.
William Turner in the opera house.
This is the first hanging ever held
in a theatre. Turner, negro preach
er, confessed to firing the shot which
killed Jesse Singley, a prominent
planter during race riot. Friends
and relatives of the condemned man
occupied front seats at the execu-
ton. They evaded the rain which
wet a large crowd that waited out
side of the playhouse.
White persons were denied entrance
by the sheriff.
The gallows were erected on the
stage in the opera house and the ne
gro marched to the place. Before the
trap was sprung the negro confessed
that he melted the riot and that he
also fired the shot that killed Sing
ley. He warned others Of his race
to let whiskey alone and to be ad-
vised by the whites.

ST PETERSBURG, Dec. 16,-It u
stated here, that abrogation Of the
passport treaty Of 1882 will not
change Russia already announced
attitude Of never admitting Jews to
the domains of the Czar. It il assert
] ed that ending the treaty will only
operate to inflict a heavy financial
less on the United States in the trade
between the two countries.
The abrogation would affect the
Russian trade to about an extent Of
ss,00o,000 annually, while American
trade to four times that extent would
be affected.
The Russian government It Is fur
ther stated will always reserve the
right to say who may and who may
not cross her borders and that WASH
ington will not be permitted TO die
tate in this regard.
The abrogation treaty would strike
a more serious blow to Russia in shut
ting off the emigration Of Jews to
the United States than perhaps in any
other respect. The government will
not change its attitude toward the
Jew, no matter what action is taken
at Washington. The government pro-
fesses to see greater peril in the in
discriminate admission of Hebrews
to Russia than it does in a break
with the United States.
Many Of those Hebrews, it is as
serted, are revolutionists and anar-
chists and endanger the public peace.
Western Press.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 15-The Sem
ate is just as much interested in Jew
ish passport questions as is the House
and the action taken there will be
Just as drastic as the action taken
by the House on the Sulzer resolu-
ton.
In the Senate debate on the resu-
luton, Senators Culberson Rayner
and Clarke Of Arkansas, in short but
emphatic speeches, demanded action
on the abrogation treaty Of 1882.
Even Senator Lodge, the acting chair
man of the senate foreign relation
committee, agreed heartily in what his
colleagues said and promised prompt
action by the committee on the ter
mination of the treaty.
AS n result the House resolution
will be reported next week, probably
Monday, and an agreement reached
before the holiday adjournment. II
the president approves of the joint
resolution, as 1t Is believed he will.
Russia will be forthwith notified that
it is the purpose Of this government
to put an end to the treaty, thus ser
wing notice on Russia that the rights
of American citizens must be respect
ed.
Under the terms of the treaty, the
termination became effective one year
from January /, after notice had been
given. II the action is not had until
New Years, the treaty would not be
abrogated under the notice until Dec.
81, 1918.
