FRONHOFfR FACES
MURDER CHARGE

A complaint has been filed with
Judge Dunn, formally charging George
Fronhofer with the murder of Peter
Laux The date of the preliminary
examination has not been set, and
verdict of the coroner's jury has been
received.
Thursday Judge Gilray, represent
ing Fronhofer, secured permission to
have second autopsy performed on
the remains of Laux by County
Physician Swezy and DR.. Giroux. As
the former was out of town, the lat.
ter examined the body, but was unable
to accomplish a great deal, owing to
the fact that portions Of the skull and
brain had been removed.
May Be a Third Autopsy.
There is considerable talk about
town that the soroner's jury, which
will meet Monday, may order the body
of Laux disinterred, for the purpose Of
holding third autopsy.
There now seems to be well
grounded theory that Laux was shot
but once, the bullet entering the left
ear, splitting when it struck the skull,
one portion passing into the brain and
the other going out at the back of the
head. The fragment of lead found in
the brain Of Laux weighed but 80
grains, while 22-ealibre bullet weighs
As grains. To many this aspect of the
case appears more logical than the
claims that deceased was shot twice,
or that he was shot but once from a
gun loaded with heavy shot.

GAMBLING CASE
THROWN OUT

After $50 veniremen had been ex-
amined in the gambling case of the
State of Nevada VS.. Edward Carney,
at Virginia City. the hearing came to
an abrupt end Thursday when District
Attorney Noel, of Storey county, re-
quested Judge Langan to dismiss the
case and quash the indictment, says
the Journal. Judge Langan complied
with the request but not before he ad-
ministered q rebuke to the district at
torney who had laid great stress upon
the cost Of the case in the motion for
dismissal and but briefly mentioned
the fact that it appeared impossible
to secure a conviction.
Carney, with several others, was
indicted ON a gambling charge by the
last Storey county grand jury. The
case was called several days ago with
District Attorney Noel representing
the State and l.. B. Fowler. Of this
city, appearing for the defendant. OF
the $50 veniremen examined eleven
jurors had been acceted subject to
peremptory challenge, Of which ave
challenges remained unused.
When court convened Thursday
Noel addressed Judge Langan and ask
ed for the dismissal of the Indictment,
stating it appeared impossible to secure
a jury; that the county was in no con-
dition to bear the great expense of the
trial and finally that he was of the
opinion that no conviction could be
secured, even if jury was obtained,
In response to the motion, Judge
Langan announced that he would not
consider the remarks of the district
attorney relative to the expense of
the trial, as it was the duty of the
officials to enforce the laws regardless
of expense but as to the opinion of
the district attorney regarding the ma
ture of the evidence to be presented
and the belief that no conviction could
be obtained, Judge Langan stated that
the court should be held by the re-
quest, and proceeded to dismiss the
case.
1t is believed that similar action
will result in the remaining cases that
are yet to come up for trial.

the lemon growers thought they had
won signal victories, but it seems
that they are only deeper in the
meshes of the law. However, the peo-
pie still feel that they are sare in ap-
pealing to the interstate commerce
commission for justice.
The United States and Germany
seem to have united in demanding .
"hands off, policy in China. This
would seem to be only just. Perhaps
the great powers will find it much cas-
ier in future to annex helpless coun-
tries under the pretext of extendin~ a
protectorate. Certainly, the Unit
ed States does not wish to annex more
territory, simply for the purpose of
extending its possessions.
The change that is coming over the
country is illustrated in a rather mark
ed degree when the suggestion can be
made seriously that woman be nam
ed for the supreme bench, without
causing anyone to smile. The success
full candidate for the presidency next
year will without doubt be one who
makes an appeal to the woman voter.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 17.-For
the purpose of expediting business and
getting closer to it's customers through

many of its agents at the principal
stations along the route giving them

signees ON ordinary loss and damage
claims. At the present time the author

Claims for shortage and damage over
which there is no dispute and which do

move is only one Of a number recently
inaugurated by the Southern Pacific
