1sLAUx OF kennedy
shot THROUGH Head
FROM AMBUSH
Especial to the Tribune)

WINNEMUCCA, January 26-The
officers who went from Winnie
mucca to Kennedy on receipt of the
news that Peter Laux an old resi-
dent of that place had been shot
from ambush and was reported kill
ed returned early this morning. The,
brought in with them Laux, who wa
not killed, but was shot through the
head and will probably die. Jake
Leick and George Frankhofer have
been arrested and brought here and
lodged in Jail on suspicion of being
partiesguilty of the outrage. They
were near the scene of the shooting
but deny that they know anything
about it.
Frankhofer was identified at the
hospital this morning by Laux.
Mystery shrouds the affair. Frank
hofer is watchman employed by
the company that claims the mine
dispute over the ownership of which
led to the shooting. Leick and
Laux have been enemies for years.
The stories of the arrested men
are very conflicting, and but lit
tie doubt is expressed by the Off
parties.
The Humboldt Star of Wednesday
contains the following regarding the
killing at Kennedy of Peter Laux
and old resident of that camp:
News reached here this morning
that Peter Laux was shot at the
camp of Kennedy, in the southern
portion of the county about 65
miles from Winnemucca. The shoot
ing occurred at the Gold Note Mine
and is believed to have been the
result of a fued which has existed
over the ownership of the property.
The news of the killing, giving only
the meagre details, was brought to
John Guthrie:s ranch near Kennedy,
by a relative OF Laux. From that
place a courier reached the Sonoma
ranch last night and this morning
Frank Guthrie arrived here and noti
fled Sheriff Lamb of the homicide.
About all that can be learned of
killing at the present time Is that

Note mine, the o~ncrship OF
which is also claimed by other part
les. Lately there hrs heen consid-
cradle wrangling over the prop
erty and hot words have been used.
Yesterday afternoon Laux was
sitting near the portal of one OF the
tunnels on the property, when a full
isade of bullets was fired from
ambush and LauX fell over apparent
ly dead. He could not state VINO

parties who fired the shots, could

miles, are In
Small Islands some re-
Are Very Interesting. ~ Sp es, inter-
esting upon the American coast. They
are mostly Of granite, affording sparse
vegetation and little natural advantage
save for fishing. Each island contains a
town of purely French type. The build
ings are mostly of wood. even to the
cathedral which is located upon St.
Pierre. On this also is the governor
residence and the American terminal of
the French Atlantic cable. During the
fishing season, which lasts from May to
October. these islands are visited by
hundreds of French and thousands of
fishermen. Their permanent population
in 1890 was $500, but this is diminishing,
as many families are moving to Canada.
The islands are especially valuable to the
French government as training ground
placed upon these fishing vessels to learn
the principles of navigation. The produce
amounts to between three and four thou
sand tons of fish annually.
Another matter of international inter-
est regarding the fishing industry is the
control of the boundary waters between
Canada and the United States. In all
probability this would have been settled
by arbitration between the two countries
had there not been obje ction to federal
control upon the part of several of the
boundary states upon the ground that
it would be an infringement of state
rights.
Recently the state of Washington has
signified it's willingness to have some in
ternational treaty regarding the salmon
fishing. as a newly developed method OF
taking fish out of the ocean before they
enter the river has given the fishermen
of British Columbia the advantage over
the Americans. who depend upon catching
them after they enter the Fraser river.
