DEAD SPANISH PREMIER
H0N0RED BY ALL NATION
Business Suspended in Madrid
While Uniformed Body Lies
in State


MADRID, Spain, Nov. 1S.-The body
of the assassinated Premier Canaletas
lay in state from an early hour this
morning in the chamber of deputies.
The body was dressed in displomatic
uniform. and beneath the corners of
the gray silk canopy covering the cata-
falque stood a military guard OF honor
the men with heads inclined on their
arms which rested on their reversed
rifles. A vast. silent crowd OF people
gathered both in and outside the cham
Der to pay their last respects to the
dead statesman. The population OF the
capital appears TO be deeply impressed
by the crime Work has been almost en-
tirely suspended and nearly every BUSH
ness house is closed while most of the
houses in the residential section are
draped with mourning.
The Liberal cabinet will continue to
hold office under the temporary presl-
dency of Foreign Minister Marquis
Manuel Garcia Prieto, at least until the
signing Of the Moroccan treaty with
France, which should have been COM
pleted today. Premier Poincare. OF
France, however. telegraphed this morn
ing to the Spanish government to de-
fer the matter until more convenient
date.
THE ASSASSIN.
The assassin, Manuel Pardinas, is a
man of distinguished appearance. He
has regular features, is smooth shaven
and has luminous eyes.
When arrested he had several manu-
scripts in his pocket One in cipher was
inscribed on the outer sheet, 1.-THE In
ternational Conflagration." He also car
ried one of Flammarion's astronomical
books and the photograph of a woman
on which was written: ITO my unfor-
getable Manuel
The recent movements of Pardinas
are known in outline to the Spanish po-
lice. He was expelled from Buenos
Ayres last March, on account of his
in anarchistic agitations.
He returned to Spain and stayed for a
few days in Madrid, whence he travelled
to Paris, London, Biarritz, Bordeaux
and Marseilles, and then again to Paris.
He left there ten days ago for Madrid.
The Paris police notified the authori-
ties in Madrid of Pardinas' departure
and informed them of an article he
had written against King Alfonso for
an anarchistic paper published in Paris.
The Madrid police, however, did not
know that Pardinas had arrived in the
Spanish capital nor have they learned
anything of his doings here before the
crime.

COLORADO WHEAT CROP.

Denver, Colo, July 2.-There have
been few years since the develop
ment Of Colorado farming that have
promised the heavy yield OF wheat
Of the present season. Both in irrfga-
ton and dry farming districts, re-
ports from practically every section
of the state are the same; that pros
poets were never brighter.
The great Arkansas valley, one Of
the heaviest grain producing sections
OF the state is green with the fields
Of what every farmer believes will
prove more bushels to the acre than
any year in the past. Las Animas
reports estimates in the district from
40 to As bushels to the acre, while at
Lamar, about the same figures pre-
vail. La Junta ranchers are wearing
all varieties of smiles and grow wild
ly enthusiastic when the wheat oues-
tion comes up. Their estimates vary
but little from those of other sections
of the valley.
In the Platte valley both irrigated
and dry ranches are rich with one of
the finest looking wheat prospects in
years. The high figure of forty bush
els to the acre, IT is said, will be
reached in the districts about Brigh-
ton. Dry farmers go even further
than this, declaring it will be no sur
prise to see the grain run from fifty
to sixty bushels.
On to the north conditions are
much the same. In Weld county there
is not rancher who will not declare
that never in the history OF the coun-
ty have wheat fields looked SO well
Unless hail destroys the prospects
all are confident a new name will be
made for Colorado as wheat produc-
Ing state.
Alamosa, Rocky Ford, Del Norte,
Meeker and half score Of other
wheat localities throughout the state
are iubilant, and from every corner
railroads are aeing warned thet the
demand for cars win break all rec
ords.

MISSING HAT MAY
IDENTIFY BODY
OFFICERS LOOKING FOR HEAD
GEAR WORN BY MURDER
ED MAN.

The mystery surrounding the dead
body found Saturday evening south Of
Las Vegas is still undispelled, al
though the sheriff's office IS making
every effort to learn the identity OF
the dead man, who undoubtedly was
the victim of foul murder. An ef-
fort is being made TO find the hat be-
longing to the dead man. This is be-
lieved to be in the possession of one
of the sheep herders who found the
body. The trade marks in the cloth
ing of the man had been cut away,
showing that the murderer wished to
avoid identification 1t is thought the
may may still remain in the hat.
This is the first murder that has been
committed in San Miguel county in
more than two years and the officers
are determined that it shall not go
1t would be blot on the
good name of the county should the
matter be allowed to drop without
a rigid investigation.
