NEVADA MOST ACTIVE
STATE, VISITORS SAY
Governor Miller of State of Della
ware and J. S. Austin Speak
OptimisticalIy

Nevada appears TO be better or
commercially and financially than
the eastern states in the opinion of
and James s. Austin, president of
the Tonopah Mining company, who
were in Reno following the usual
inspection of the company's proper
ties at Tonopah and at Wonder.
Nevada scarcely seems to feel the
quiet that is prevailing throughout
the country in business circles said
Gov. Miller. There is more ssnap
and go here, apparently. No doubt it
is largely due to the payrclls of the
mining companies which serve to
release large sums of money in the
state at regular intervals.

New Iberia.-Claiming self-defense,
Mrs. j. B. Bohanna of Jenerette, is in
the parish Jail here, charged with muir.
dering her husband in J%enerette.
The Bahamas located in J~enerette
several years ago, and established a
f1ourishing business. Both were in mid.
die life, Mrs. Bohanna being fifty and
Capt. Bohanna fifty-five years old. In.
terviewed in the parish Jail, Mrs. Bo-
hanna, in a quiet and perfectly self.
possessed voice, said that she prefer
red to say nothing Of the tragedy ex.
cept that she had been forced to shoot
her husband in self-defense.
Coroner Shaw stated later that an
examination of the body of Capt. b.
hanna and Of the bedroom showed no
evidence OF a struggle, that the body
was found lying in bed in u%ndercloth-
ing, with a light covering over it, a
bullet hole in his right temple, blood
spattered on the pillow, and the eyes
closed. There yer no e~ye-witnesses
to the tragedy.
Mrs. Bohanna is said to have stated
that her husband was not in bed when
she shot him, and that after the shoot
ing she placed his body in the bed.
She has retained Alpine & MCGOWAN
to defend her. The Grand Jury, now
in session, probably will act on the
case this week, and Mrs. Bohanna, in
the event of her indictment, be tried
at the present criminal term Of court.
It is reported that following the kill
ing Mrs. Bohanna called several per-
sons over the phone, telling them that
Capt. Bohanna had been shot. Later,
she called Deputy Sheriff Wattigny, to
whom she surrendered, and was brought
to New Iberia, and put in jail to await
a preliminary trial.

TRIP WAS WITHOUT INCIDENTS
British Consul GsmmII Meets Huerta
and Offers Him Refuge on Board
tho Cruiser Embellishments
Offer to Help Huerta.

Puerto Mexico. Gen. Victoriano
Huerta, who recently resigned as pro-
visional president of Mexico, arrived
here, accompanied by Gen. Banquet,
his minister Of war.
When he expects to leave his coun-
try and share the exile Of Gen. Porfirio
Dia1, whom he escorted 10 the coast
three years ago, is yet unknown ex-
cept perhaps to himself. Capt. Koh-
Ter of the German cruised Dresden Of
fered him his ship for any use he
cared to make Of her." but Gen. Huer.
ia merely thanked him, adding that
he would return his call soon.
The trip to this port was without
incident or unpleasantness other than
that occasioned by the terrible heat
Of the tropical lowlands. With Huerta
and Banquet were the general staff.
The party occupied q train Of nine
sleeping cars, four Of which were CIV
en- over to troops. Two other trains
loaded with nothing but troops pre-
coded Gen. Huerta's train and arrived
here an hour before the Huerta train.
Behind him came another train, also
loaded with soldiers.
Capt. Kohler and staff, in formal
dress uniform, were at the station and
were officially presented to Gen
Huerta. Answering inquiries as to
his health, Gen. Huerta assured the
officers he felt very well, although
somewhat tired from the heat.
British Vice. Consul Gemmil also Of.
ficially called on Huerta and present
cd him 2 message, presumably an Of
Ter Of refuge on the British cruiser
Bristol. Huerta read It and expressed
pleasure at the consideration being
shown him.
Local officials calling on Gen. Huer'
tn were few In number, the only one
Of importance being Gen. Rincon, com
mander Of the local garrison. Com
mander Gabriel A. Carvallo of the
Mexican gunboat Zaragoza with his
staff also called, but Huerta asked to
be excused.
All arrangements were made fol
the reception Of Huerta and Banquet
and the stage was so set that they
could board the Dresden or Bristol
and put out to sea so quickly and
quietly as to rob their flight of all
dramatic elements. Tracks were laid
SO that the special train could be
pulled along the wharf.

Baton ROuge.-Delo3 r. Johnson,
representative from Washington par
ish, and James R. Patterson, Senator
from the st. Misrepresentation. district,
probably will be Governor Halls ap-
pointees on the probe commission
created by an act of the legislature
just adjourned. Senator Parkerson is
one of the most f~orceful members Of
the upper house, and Mr.. johnson is
recognized as n of the ablest mem
bers Of the lower house.
Under the act the commission is to
consist OF seven members, two elected
by the house, n by the Senate and
one by the Senate and one each ap-
pointed by the speaker and by the
lieutenant governor and two named
by the governor.
Joseph z. Genrelly Of the Sixth
Ward, Orleans, and Hewitt Bouan-
chaud OF Pointe Coupee we're elected
by the house, and Duncan Buie OF Rich
land vas appointed by Speaker
Thomas. Senator A. Kent Amacker
Of East Carroll was elected by the Sen
ate, and Senator Leon r. Smith OF
Caddo was appointed by Lieu. Gov.
Barrett.
The probe commission is to begin It's
work In September, and Is limited to
eleven months. The act requires it to
Investigate the sale of the state bond
issue and the Tensas land deal, and re-
quires a general investigation of all
state institutions, boards and depart
ments. It provides further that the
commission shall receive afidavits
from any citizen seeking an inyestiga.
ton OF any department Of the govern
ment.
The commission has large political
possibilities. On the other hand.
should it follow the mandate OF the
act, and make Its work constructive,
1t has great potentially for good.
Senator A. Kent Amaker, president
pro tempore Of the Senate, who may
be chairman of the commission, is dis.
posed to regard the mission OF the
Commission as a constructive one. SEN
at0r Amaker Is friendly to the adj
nlinistration. He was elected presd-
dent pro tempore Of the Senate as the
candidate Of the administration.
II politics breaks into the work OF
the commission. 1t probably will come
from Senator Smith Of Caddo and Mr..
Buie of Richland. Both men have been
clamoring for an Investigation OF the
Tensas land deal. Mr.. Buie had a long
talk with Attorney General Pleasant.
who has refused to recognize the com.
promise Of the Tensas land suit.
