From its confidential sources in Cen
lral America this government, espec
tally interested in preserving the
peace among the little republics, has
heen receiving ominous and specula
tive reports of juntas OF deposed die
tators and revolutionists here and
there, plotting trouble. While the
presence of American warships would
be principally intended to provide re.
fuge for Americans and other foreign
citizens, there is no doubt that mar.
Ines and bluejackets might be used
in the interior, if situation should
arise paralleling that in Nicaragua in

troops were called on to open a rail
road and engage themselves in bat.

There has been sharp criticism in

in PRISON ONLY
after MANY YEARS
MAN SENTENCED IN 1909 FOR
MURDER COMMITTED IN 1890 IN
VALENCIA COUNTY BEGINS SERV.
ing SENTENCE ONLY TODAY.

! For murder committed in 1890
one Octaviano Telles today began
serving a three year term at the state
prison and the history of his case and
how he escaped punishment although
sentenced in 1909, would read like tic
tion anywhere other than in New
Mexico
That the man reached at all, was
only due to the perseverance
of Governor w. G. Mcdonald, who
said today that methods whereby this
man remained at liberty, must stop in
New Mexico if it We're in the power
of his office to stop them
According to the investigation set
under way months ago by the gov
ernor's Office, there was a murder
committed in 1890 in Valencia coun.
escaped and remained away for tif-
teen years. He then returned was
tried and in 1909 he was sentenced
to three years in the state prison in
prison.
A commitment was issued for him
and the sheriff started for Santa F.
At Albuquerque, a prominent pcliii
clan met the sheriff took the commit
ment from him on the pretense that
he was himself going to Santa Fe
to get parole for Telles. The poll
tician came to Santa Fe but if he got
a parole, there is no record of it in
the Office of the governor nor at the
state prison. The result was that
Telles went back to Valencia county
and lived there happily, until the case
was called to the attention of Gov.
ernor Mcdonald. The governor insti-
tuted a thorough investigation with
the result that Telles arrived at the
state prison today and is now starting
out on his belated three year term.
In order to get the man into prison,
the governor was compelled to inves-
tigate the case from the beginning,
to write to the sheriff of Valencia
county, to secure a statement from
the court officials and finally to Sc
cure new commitment. Telles
probably believed he was paroled at
the time he was turned loose in Albu.

Senator Rice in 1857. Stephen A.
Douglas, then senator from Illinois,
joined Senator Rice in the enterprise,
and SO, too, did John C. Breckenridge
Of Kentucky, who was at that time
vice-president. The houses were of a
magnificence not usual in the Wash

talk of the town. They we're given a
frontage of AZ feet and the land on
which they were built extended 300
feet north to X street. When COM

by Stephen A. Douglas. the middle one
by Senator Rice and the house at the
west end of the row was occupied by
Mr. Breckenridge.
Senator Rice put deed of trust

against his interest in it, and the
mortgage came to be acquired by Al
