ASK LENIENCY FOR THIEF.

Geneva, June so.-For pleading
that leniency should be extended to
his client, accused Of the theft of
some clocks, because he lived for a
long time in Germany" NJ. ANDERSON,
a Geneva attorney. has incurred the
wrath Of the German legation in
Switzerland.
At the instance Of Baron Won Rom
berg, a German minister, the attorney
general of the confederation has been
asked to proceed against Attorney
ANDERSON. The complaint has just
been filed with the authorities by the
German consul in Geneva.
The thief's case was drawing to a
close and it was evident to his at
torney that a conviction was prob
able. The latter elected therefore to
throw his client on the mercy Of the
court. He counted rather too liberal
ly on the anti German sentiment pre-
vailing in western Switzerland when
he pleaded longtime residence In
Germany as extenuating circum-
stances for theft, for his client was
convicted. and he himself is apt to
face prosecution for violation Of Swiss
neutrality. .-.

Fight /.
Started Against The
Rushing OF Cattle

Ell Paso. Tex, July 16.-The ro-
nance Of cattle rustling-the practice
OF riding into the night and driving
across the national boundary with a
flying herd OF stolen cattle-of which
o. Henry wrote, does not appeal to
the Panhandle and Southwestern
Cattlefnen's association. Cattle rust
ling has boon on the increase in the
tracted to the southwest by the dis
turbed conditions, along the border
finding 1t both exciting and .remuner-
alive.
The annual report Of the Cattle
mems association shows that the
rustling is looked upon with high
disfavor by the cattle owners who are
about to take steps to stop 1t. The
number Of line riders along the border
between Ell Paso and Las Cruces will
be Immediately increased, w. l.. AM
'onett, secretary of the association an
Records of the association show that
since January / of this rear 244 head
Of cattle belonging to members have
been driven across the border. Ninety
i've Of these have been recovered, but
that percentage is too low and the
consequent loss too costly to suit the
members.
An inspection Of six carloads Of
hides imported through this port Tor
Mexico recently revealed SGT hides
bearing brands of association members
which had been illegally sold. The
aggregate value Of the hides was
$4,000. Cattlemen will have to go int6
court to recover them. b
In addition to the large force OF
