I'VE have clue he said, but its
successful termination now depends
upon absolute identification of the
dead man. He is about 26 or 2S years
old. weighing between 165 and 175
pounds, has dark brown wayy hair al
o most black, and is six feet tall He
g a prominent nose, and an upper
/, y ont tooth is slightly protruding.
4 ore a medium size black Stet-
son ha eam colored imitation silk
shirt witt. collar attached; gray trous-
ers and pair of Mans Ease shoes.
The man is bound to be missing
from somewhere, and that is Just what
We want to know. where he came from
and who he was"
The body of the murdered man is
still being held at the Carroll under
taking parlors in this city until his
identity can be established. The off.
GERS are very hopeful of a speedy ter
mination of the mystery, the motive
for the murder, from all obtainable
evidence, being this:
That a man known to the authori-
ties. but whose name is withheld from
publication at this time. is wanted for
crimes committed elsewhere and that
the dead man was a witness against
him. and he either killed this man and
put the letter on the body to throw
the authorities off his trail and cause
them TO give up the search for him,
or he was killed for the motive OF rob
berry. as his pockets We're turned
wrongside out, and he was known to
have had some money on him a day
previous to the murder. It is thought
by those in a position to speak, that
the men who identified the body, We're
accomplices in the scheme, and the
authorities only seek final and abso-
Lutte Identification to unravel what they
believe is one of the boldest and most
dastardly deeds ever committed in
this part of Texas.

BODY OF MURDERED MAN is BE.
ING HELD THERE AWAITING
IDENTIFICATION.
WHAT WAS THE MOTIVE2
Authorities Believe That Dead Man
Was Either a Witness in a Murder
Trial or That He was Killed and
Then Robbed.

Gainesville, Texas, July IA grea'
sensation developed today in the mys
found two miles south of this city
Sunday. July 2, lying face downward
in a pool of his own blood. The body
was well dressed, and lying close by
was a magazine of late issue. The
body had either been taken to the Sc
cluded spot on a little rayine bridge
where it was found, or the man had
been lured there. He was found about
two hundred feet from the main line
OF the Santa Fe railroad tracks, and
no evidences of a struggle were ap
parent, he having evidently been kill
ed while asleep, as he was a power
ful man. On his person was a letter
written to a brother who was sup
posed to live in Ardmore, Okla, but
who could not be found there. Among
other things, the letter contained a
postscript which said that the letter
could not be mailed that day on ac.
count of the man who is now dead,
not being in town. and also being
without stamps. But, according to
what has later developed, this same
man was seen about Gainesville from
Cntnp1a,- at-nniDu fhp
day prior to the finding of his body.
After the body had laid in the Car
roll undertaking parlors for five days,
two men came here, one day apart,
and identified the body as that of their
brother II. p. Witt, whom they had
heard nothing from for more than a
year One of these men was from
Fort Worth, and one from Ballinger,
Texas, but the former was not posi-
tive of his relationship with the dead
man. However, the other man view
ed the body with tears in his eyes, and
said it was his brother. No arrange
ments for the funeral were made, and
this man left town. to later inform the
officials as to what disposition TO
make of the body, but nothing has
since been heard from him. While
the officials will not give out all the
information they have in their posses
sion. Sheriff Lewis Bringman, among
other things, said to The Ardmoreite
correspondent
I'VE have conducted a quiet and
thorough investigation of the case and
it is not believed that the dead man
is n. p. Witt at all" Mr.. Bringman
refused to make any further state
ment as to the party or parties sus-
pected of the murder.

ABE ENLoE CASE.
Would Not Accept Parole Offered by
Covernor-To Let Courts Settle 1t.

Abe Enloe of this city, who was
offered a paro'e by Governor Cruce
a few days past, did not accept the
parole and the matter will be settled
in the courts here. Enloe was con
victed some time past for operating
a gambling house. He filed notice OF
appeal and through an error on the
part of his attorney the case was
not appealed. Evidence was developed
later that Enloe was not guilty OF
the particular offense for which he
was convicted and a petition was cir
culated for his psrdOn, also two OF
the Jurors went 10 Oklahoma City
TO see the governor and it is said
told him they had discovered the
mistake and asked that Enloe be
pardoned At the same time petitions
were being circulated here asking
the governor not to issue the par
don. The result was the parole, which
Enloe did not accept. The outcome
of the case will be watched with
interest by many.

President VIII Disregard Democratic
Wishes as to Date,

Washington. March 3. - President
Taft has decided that there must be
an extra session OF congress. And he
will call IL. too, earlier than April 4.
Republican leaders in congress were

IL seems certain that the reciproc-
ity measure can not be passed by the
senate before congress adjourns to-
morrow. President Taft said some
time ago that II 1t does not pass he
will call an extra session, and he
now declares the extra session neces.
sary. In compliance with the wishes
Of the Republican leaders he will
call 1t earlier than April 4. the date
which the Democratic leaders had
agreed upon, as they wanted month
in which to prepare their legislative
program.
Mr.. Taft will be guided, 1t is said
by the wishes of the Republicans
and it was announced that confer
ence will be held, probably Monday
to decide upon date. March 20 was
the date talked about at the capitol
