PECULIAR FACTS MAKE KILLING
 A MYSTERY
Theory Does Not Look Very
 Reasonable
(From Tuesdays DaIly)

The killing of Jesus Rodriguez at Ash Fork last Friday morning r.- mains clothed in mystery as to the agency, and notwithstanding the evil denee of eye witnesses, the general belief prevails that the man was mur- dcred
 At the time when he met death. he was in the side room of the Rambaugh saloon, in the company of three women and one man. The testimony of the four was remark able in recalling circumstances at the time of the shooting, not one of the four present seeing the man pull the gun out of his pocket to kill himself. One female also went so far as to state on the witness stand that she did not even hear the re- port of the gun, although the party were sitting close together and ner hearing was perfect. The body of the man was permitted to lie in inc room from I:OU o'clock in the morn ing until the next morning at 10 o'clock before Deputy Sheriff Bart lett was informed of the affair. An examination of the dead man also proved that the suicide theory was untenable, as there were no powder marks on his head where the bullet entered. Rodriguez was to leave that section for Mexico, receiving a letter from his father to return home immediately. The remark the dead man is said to have made to his companions, All take a drink with me, as this will be inc last one" is the Himsy basis for bcliev- ing that the man made away with himself.

 The question is now raised where Goodwin will be hanged. It is said that he will be executed at Prescott 1T the necessary arrangements can be made with the Yavapai county authorities.
 When the state board of control refused to permit Goodwin's execu- tion at the Florence pcnitentiary the matter was immediately referred to the department of justice at Wash ington and has been under consid- eration for several weeks.
 Tt has been learned that the de- partment has instructed federal off cials in Arizona 10 learn if the county authorities will permit the execution ,o be carried out at the Yavapai county jail.
