LOPEZ CHRISTMAS GIFT IS A
CLOSE SEALED TOMB IN MINE

Bingham, Utah, Dec. 25.-If Ralph
Lopez. slayer Of six men. is still in
the Utah-Apex mine. where he took
refuge November 81. he is securely
sealed up and will be held a prisoner
there until after today. Not a sound
has come from the mine since Decem-
ber IA. when heavy bulkheads were
erected in the tunnel mouths to pre-.
vent a dash for liberty.
Although Sheriff Smith. now in solo
charge of the long continued manhunt.
remains confident that the desperate
is in the mine, either dead or alive.
many believe he escaped shortly after
smudges were lit December 1 for the
purpose of asphyxiating him. 1t is be-
lieved that the mystery of the mine
will not be cleared up until the bulk
heads are removed and the workings
searched for the gunmans body.

PEARcE CLEAR OF ALL FRAUD
IN ALAMOSA ELECTION CASE

Plaintiffs in the ma1damuS suit thit
was brought against Secretary of
State Pearce, to compel his :uthoriza-
tion of the Alamosa county releren-
dunn petition, have failed to substan-
tiate their claims of theft to sigma
lures, according to the ruling of Dis
trict Judge Perry and the case was
dismissed An appeal for review to
the supreme court is possible.
The suit was brought by S. A. Cos
ton, w. A. Braiden and B. ]. Symonds.
Coston was employed by Braiden and
Jose Garcia of La lara to circulate
the petition to refer the bill passed at
the last legislative session, creating
Alamosa county out of parts of Cone
jos and Costilla counties.
The original petition according to
the ruling of Judge Perry, contained
1908 names, when the law requires
1852, or per cent of the total votes
cast.
1t was claimed by Coston that the
petition, with a supplemental filing,
contained surplus of 6S4 names above
the required number, and that four
teen sections were removed from it in
the secretary of states office to make
it short of the statutory limit.
1t was up to the plaintiffs in the
mandamus proceedings, according to
Judge Perry, to show that the alleged
missing sections, containing at least
629 signatures, had been lost or de-
stroyed after filing with Pearce.
Mrs. S. A. Coston, who acted as Sec
retary to her husband in the petition
circulation, was not corroborated by
documentary evidence, the court ruled,
in her claim that the petition contain
ed the requisite number of signatures,
which she sought to prove by checks
paid circulators. These checks were
dated July g." but were not cashed
until July 5, when the date for filing
names had expired.
There was nothing introduced,
Judge Perry declared, to show that
the checks had not been antedated.
In addition, Judge Perry found
1,611 illegal signatures on the peti
ton, including fifty-four without ad
dresses and thirty-four duplicate
names.
