RICH DENvERiTES FATE
IN JUDGE TELlER'S HANDS.

Denver, Colo, Sept. 12.-Whethel
the grand jury indictments returned
Tuesday against city officials, owners
of property and residents of Denver's
segregated district, will be sustained
or nullified, rests with Judge ]. H. Tel
Ter, of the criminal court The legal
ity of these indictments hinges on the
courts decision on plea in abate.
ment and motion to quash.
Judge Teller will hear arguments
and render decision next week.
The plea in abatement sets forth
that District Attorney Willis v. FL
lott was not properly set aside as ad-
wiser to the grand jury, that the ap-
pointment of J. H. Chiles as special
adviser was not legal, and that there
fore. the indictments are not legal.
The motion to quash cites a provi-
sion of the city charter, which, it is
claimed, gives the fire and police
board executive control of the red
light district and removes such regu-
lation from the jurisdiction of the
court.
Counsel agree that if these points
are sustained, it will result in the re-
lease of Mayor Henry ]. Arnold, for
mer Mayor Robert w. Speer, and 9TH
er city officials against whom indict-
ments were returned.

of Charles Keil, aged "A, said to have
been a wealthy Minneapolis merchant
at one time, and that of his wife, were
found in a mountain cabin, near MUIR
ray, late yesterday. Keill evidently
had shot his wife and then himself.
After shooting his wife, Keill had
washed her wounds, and banked her
body with flowers. Then he knelt by
her side and blew out his brains.
A letter addressed to Charles Hyle,
of Portland, believed to be son-in-law
pleaded with his children to take
back their mother that she might die
in her old home. Another note de-
clared that he had committed the deed
to prevent his wife from being sent

this belief is not shared by others,
who realize the Importance of a port
of entry to the rebels. even though

American officials have decided that

the federals should the rebels decline
to attack Aqua Prieta. When asked,
point blank, if he would go out and
attack the rebels in that event, Gen

that was a military secret. The gen |

is that neither side is desirous of en-

NEGRO TROOPERS IN TROUBLE.
A score of negro troopers Of the |
Ninth U. S. cavalry were rounded up
