RENO WATER HAS
DECIDED KICK

Numerous residents on the south
side of the river went bathless yes
terday and drinkless, too, as far as
the hydrant water was concerned,
says the Reno Gazette. 1t WAS
pure looking water that ran out OF
he faucets, but it had an awful
kick" and an awful Odor, accord
ing to the description turned in to
the water company along with the
numerous kicks that were made The
reason for the change in the odor and
taste Of the hitherto pure water com
ing from Hunter creek was eX-
planned by the water company in
this way
Once or twice every year 1t is the
practice Of the company to kill the
weeds growing around the edge Of
the reservoir with blue stone. This
was done last week and it is thought
that the dead weeds are causing
the trouble The water especially
when heated had a very bad Odor
and this is said to have been
caused by the vegetable matter.

REVERT DIVIDE CUTS RICH LEDGE
Almost Equal Values in Gold and Silver at 500 Feet

Twenty-eight inches OF ore that
samples $3S a ton in an enirely new
east and west vein is showing to-
day on the Revert Divide as the re-
suit of crosscut from the bottom
Of the old shaft The find was made
yesterday afternoon when the ledge
matter appealed so strongly to En-
gneer Ed. J. Roberts that he had
special run made by the assayers.
The values are different from any
other ore found in either the Divide
or TonOpah districts as it carries
Is ounces in silver to one ounce of
gold making the value $3S. The
shaft is situated close to the line
Of the Verdi which lies $50 feet due
east Of the location of the strike and

the vein.
The Revert shaft was sunk twelve

Judge Urges Smith
10 Save Slayer of
Baf From Chair
Mcintyre Says Witness Adj
mits Testimony Against
Cohen Was Part of Per-
jury Plot; Swami to Act

Judge Mcintyre of General Sessions
yesterday recommended to Governor
Smith commutation of the sentence of
Joseph Cohen, now in the death house
at Sing Sing awaiting execution for
the murder of Barnet Baff, West
Washington Market poultry dealer. in
1914.
Judge Mcintyre presided over the
John Doe proceedings held to de-
termine whether prejury was COM
mitted at the Cohen trial. He made
his recommendation for Communication
"in the interest of public justice" in a
letter to Governor Smith.
The Governor recently granted
Cohen another reprieve, one of many
extended him since doubt first was
cast on the truth of the testimony
that convicted him.
Urges Action by Swami
Judge Mcintyre also informed the
Governor that as result of evidence
turned up in the John Doe investigation
to present his proofs to the grand
jury of New York County for it's
action with respect to the crimes
which are indicated by such evidence
to have been committed in connection
with the prosecution of Joseph Cohen"
The District Attorney is expected to
take action this month.
Judge Mcintyre wrote the Governor
that he based his communication rec
ommendation principally on the testi-
mony given by Anthonio Cardinale and
Joe Sorro in the John Doe hearings.
"Sorro." wrote Judge Mcintyre, ere
tod
mony given by him upon the trial of
Joseph Cohen. He declared that all
such testimony was false and that he
had been suborned to give such testi-
mony by one Philip M. Musica, an ex-
convict, who at the time of the prose
cution of Cohen was employed as chief
Investigator by, the Attorney General" )"
Cardinale, who has recently returned
to Italy, showed by his testimony in
the Cohen trial, wrote Judge Mcintyre,
that he "was clearly an accomphce in
the murder of Baf."
Reasons for Recommendation
After commenting on the testimony
of these witnesses, Judge Mcintyre
wrote:
"The very shifty and evasive attitude
adopted by these two witnesses, in the
light of the detailed retraction of his
testimony In the Cohen case, which
Sorro had previously made before me
in writing under oath. are among the
principal elements which have caused
me to arrive at the conclusion
that the sentence of death heretofore
imposed upon Joseph Cohen should, in
the interest of public justice, be COM
muted."
Cohen was tried and convicted in
July. 1877, before Justice Tompkins, in
the Criminal Branch of the Supreme
Court. He was prosecuted then by
Deputy Attorney Generals Alfred L.
Becker and James O'Malley.

PITTSBURGH, Dec. s. Ninety Eight
men were arrested o-day at Donora, a
steel town on the Monongahela River
thirty miles from here, when troopers
Of the State Police raided Lithuanian

the mills, and this afternoon they were
arraigned before Grover w. Boyd 8
justice Of the peace. Each was held
in $500 bail for a. hearing next Thurs
day. Those who were unable to fur
nish bond, and they constituted the
majority, were taken tonight to the
county jail ct Washington, Pa All
but seven were foreigners.
The raid was the elimination of a
campaign by the authorities to rid the
community Of men who, they say. have
been suspected of being implicated in
bomb explosions that have made Do
