SHERIFF HOT AFTER
FLEEING EDITOR
Harry Tammen, of Denver
Post, Running From Con
tempt Bench Warrant.

Denver, Colo, July 19-A bench war
rant for contempt of court was issued
Yesterday afternoon by Judge Hubert
L. Shattuek against Harry H. Tammen,
one of the prOprietOrs of the Denver
Post. Tammen is said to have taken an
early night train for San Francisco.
Under sheriff John Kenny is reported
in pursuit
Tammen was charged with contempt
by William q. Evans, president of the
Denver City TramWay company. The
action arose out of newspaper articles
commenting upon a suit for criminal L.
bel filed bv Evans against Tammen and
his partner, T. G. BOnfils. A counter
suit for libel was filed bv the neWspa-
per prOprietOrs against Evans and eX-
mayor Robert W. Speer, as proprietors
OF the Denver Times.
The action for contempt was taken
up a couple OF days ago when district
Judge Shattuck- appointed a commission
OF lawyers to make recommendations.
Today the attorneys informed the court
that they could not serve, and Judge
Shattuck appointed deputy district at
tOTney John H. Chiles to act.
1t is understood that it was upon
Chiles' recommendation that the warrant
was issued. Tammen is said to be on
his way to San Francisco. Tt is not
known what train under sheriff Kenny
caught.
Judge Shattuck early this week post
pOned the libel suit against Tammen &
Bonfils without stating any reason Tor
so doing.

TAX RECEIPTS To
EXCEED 100000
Last Year the Amount Was
$270,000 at the
85-Cent Rate.

Despite the fact that there will he a
reduction in the state and county tax
rate, and FL Paso and Culberson CONN.,
ties have been segregated. Ell Paso viii
have approximately $325,000 in re-
ceipts from its tax rolls for the wear
1912, according to tax assessor Georoe
Huffman.
While the assessor has not been no
titled by the state board Of taxation
lust what the rate this year viii he #
has been reported from Austin. Texas
that the board fixed the state and
county tax rate for Ell Paso at n cents
on the 500 valuation, being a reduce
ton in this instance of eight cents. the
rate for the year 1911 being 50 cents
The assessed valuation of the prop
erty in Fl Paso county is expected to
run close to SAL 100000 for the year
1912. No definite amount can be fixed
until the tax assessor completes the task
of rendering his tax rolls, which Is eX-
pected to be done by November l.
There are five different tax rolls to
be made up, including the residence, non
residence, railroad. bank, and unrendered
rolls.
For the year 1911 the assessed valua-
ton of FL PasO county's property
amounted to S43,000,000 but Culber-
son county was included. When the
state officers decided that Culberson
county was entitled to its own pro rata
of taxation, that county withdrew from
FL PasO county, taking with it about
100000 out of that valuation.
However, the new buildings and en-
terprises that have gone up in FL PasO
and the increased valuation of lands are
expected to more than offset the loss
sustained bv the withdrawal of Culber-
son county, and the reduction of the tax
rate.
Last year the receipts in the county
collectors office amounted to approx
imatelv $4,000 which was based on
the old rate of IS cents on the 500.
This year the collections viii be made
on the "a cents schedule as arranged by
the state board. Also last year Ell Paso
was rated as being eighth among the
other leading counties in the state in
the way of the highest total assessed
valuation

BOMBARDIER IS
OLD SELF AGAIN
MUSES. Up Tom Kennedy,
Planting a Knockout in
the Eighth Period.

New York, n. 7, July 19.-BOmbar-
der Wells, English heavyweight box
ing champion, came into his own here
last night by defeating Tom Kennedy
in eight rounds by a knockout Wells,
criticized for his recent defeat here
at the hands of Al Palzer, fought a
masterful battle, leading all the dis
lance and displaying great boxing
skill. It was the fastest fight seen here
since the days of the Horton law.
The knockout came a1ter two min
utes and A seconds of going in the
eighth round. The deciding blow was
a right smash to the jaw which sent
Kennedy down, his head hanging over
the ropes. The referee counted Ken
nedy out and his seconds carried him
TO his corner. Once before in the round
Kennedy had gone down for a count of
nine when Wells hooked his left to the
face and sent his right to the jaw.
Wells was by far the quickest through
out the fight.
In the decisive round Kennedy's left
eve bled freely but he was game and
tried to fight back while Wells was
landing let's and rights to the jaw.
When Kennedy got up from his first
knockdown in this round he was stag
gering and Wells took advantage of
the epportune moment and placed the
knockout blow.
Both men turned the scales at 191 IL
pounds before entering the ring. Each
was in perfect condition.
