Electrocution STAYED.

Henry H. Savage, counsel for Glow
anna Iraca, convicted of first degree
murder in this county, made an argu-
ment before the Court of Pardons, on
Wednesday, to have the sentence of
death committed to life imprisonment.
The principal reason for the applica-
ton was that Iraca might be of con-
siderable use to the state as witness
in the prosecution of other defendants
in connection with the Rider murder
case, particularly in identifying the
criminals who participated in the af-
fair.
Prosecutor Kelsey and Attorney
General Wescott opposed the motion.
The court decided to issue stay oil
execution for 60 days, until the court
has concluded a decision upon the
arguments presented.
Iraca was to have been electrocuted
this week.

CITIES GET
HALF OF LIQUOR LICENSES

The supreme court has denied the
petition of Attorney General That
cher for rehearing in the case of the
city of Reno against the state, brought
some time ago to give the city of
Reno half of the state liquor licenses
collected In Reno.
In an opinion on the law Attorney
General Thatcher stated that the citv
was entitled to half of the county
licenses collected In the city but was
not entitled to any part of the state
licenses collected. City Attorney
Summerfield took exception to his
ruling and secured verdict in favor
of the city from the supreme court.
Several bills framed to give the
state the entire amount of liquor Ii
censes collected in cities have been
introduced in the legislature this ses-
sion but have been killed.
