as to what will be the outcome of the
indictments.
Lieut.. Gov. Bilbo was bitter in the ar
raignment of his alleged political en-
emies, characterizing this indictment
as the outgrowth of a continued fight
of the same old political gang" who
has always been after him.
Senator Hobbs said he would issue
a formal statement later.
A friend of Senator Hobbs stated
that in discussing the interview in
Jackson with Gov. Brewer, Senator
Hobbs said that Gov. Brewer had call
ed for him shortly after the indictment
had been made, and had begged him to
make a clean breast of the whole af-
fair" Senator Hobbs, according to the
same authority, told Gov. Brewer that
while he, Brewer, might be his friend
and would allow him every advantage
he would not "lie about Bilbo even II
it resulted in his going to the peniten
tiary for life"
Senator Hobbs stated to friends here
that he had been at the National Park
Hotel in the city about year ago and
at the time he had discussed in a gen
eral way with Steve Castleman of Bel
zoni the proposed creating of the new
county, but that nothing transpired al
that conference which might be crimi
nal or discreditable. Senator Hobbs
did not succeed in making his bono
until o'clock in the afternoon, wher

CAP A. COLD FOR .25c
MEXICAN FUGITIVE
MAY HAVE ESCAPED.

Bingham, Utah, Dec. 4.-Behind its
double bulkheads the Utah-Apex mine
still held secret last night the fate of
Ralph Lopez, slayer of six men. The
smudges that were ignited Monday
continued to pour their poisonous
gases into the upper workings until
rte last night, when they were al
lowed to die down.
Many miners contend there is a pos
sibilty that Lopez is safe from the
gases in some recess of the mine
where air may be had, or that he may
have escaped through some unmatched
exit before the fumes became over
powering.
Lopez killed a Mexican miner on
Nov. 81 in a fit of jealousy and fol
lowed this crime by killing three peace
officers After long chase, he took
refuge last Thursday in the mine
where he killed two more deputies on
Saturday.

BOOZE FIGHTING
PARSON SCRAPPY
USES KNIFE ON HIS
WlFE-TAkEN TO JAIL WITH
CONSIDERABLE LIQUOR.

A negro by the name of Carey Mays,
alias Preacher" caused considerable
excitement in a yard on Southern
avenue this afternoon when he
thought to settle difference" with
his wife, Louisa, by using knife on
her. The woman defended herself as
best she could with a broom, but re-
ceived stab in the shoulder and some
minor scratches about the face. When
Constable Doherty appeared on the
scene he found it necessary to use the
butt of his buggy whip on Preacher
before the latter would submit to ar
rest. The officer inflicted a slight
wound on the negros head and car
ried him to DR.. Robert Donald's office
where it was dressed.
Preacher" who comes by that title
from the fact that he occasionally eX
pounds, had just returned from Louisi
ana and brought back with him con
siderable booze. The booze seems tC
have been the whole trouble, as he
is said to be a peaceable negro wher
sober, and it is only when the booze
fighter downs the preacher in him thai
he plays bad. He had gallon jug il
his hand, a pint in his pocket ant
evidently about as much again inside
| him when he was taken in tow.
The woman's injuries are no
thought to be serious.
Preacher" was taken to Jail.
