today and brought out in good con-
dition.
ILLNESS NEARS CRISIS.
(By Associated Press.!
Boston, M:ss., April 4.—E. C. Swift,

monia in this city, is nearing the crisis
of his sickness. He passed a fair
night.
(By Associated Press-)
Washington, D* C., April 4—Pres-
sure Is being brought to bear upon
President Roosevelt to have him inter-
vene in behalf of the three Americans,
Richardson, Mason and Harie, who are
under sentence of death in Mexico for
tho murder of Mitchell and Devers at
Chlhauhau four years ago. The su-
preme court of Mexico has just af-
firmed the sentence of death and un-
less Governor Creel padrons them
they will be exeouted by shooting.
This is the case in which charges of
a sensational nature have been
brought against the New York Life
Insurance company. The alleged
crime of tho three men was committed
in order to collect insurance en the
lives of the victims, it has been al-
leged that the New York Life, in
■which company the policies of insur-
ance were held, spent large sums of
money and used undue influence to
bring about the conviction of the ac-
cused men.
The story of the alleged murders i
and conspiracy to secure the insur-1
ance money is of a most sensational np (, rI pcxiOX
character. In the fall of 1902, while 1 HE 1 ASK 01 SELLC lOIS
looking over some Mexican policie-, |
the solicitor general of the New York
Life Insurance company, noticed a i
peculiar coincidence in two Chihuahua
claims. The claims came through the
same agent, C. T. Richardson, were
certified by tho same doctor, C. S.
/larle, and in both cases Dr. Harle hal
been the examining physician. The
men had both died after short illnesses.
One of them, Harry Mitchell,
insured for $15,000, had died on Feb-
ruary 11. The other, James Devers
who was insured for $10,000, died on
February 22. Yet the Mitchell claim
was presented in February, and the
Devers claim not until July. In both j
cases the insured had no other,rela- j
tive than the beneficiary. In the first
case the beneficiary was Richardson's
order the election was fiercely waged.
The Republican mac'iino worked with
fury In an effort to make votes. The
contest was especially severe in the
Second and Third wards.
The vote In the different wards was
follows:

Question Bobs Up.
(By Associated Pres9.)
Chicago, 111., April 4.—Under the
result of tho city election In which
the question of municipal ownership
of tho street railways was the issue,
the city of Chicago can proceed to ac-
quire and control the railways, but can
not operate them. At tho samo time
tho voters, while declaring that the
city shall not proceed to operate tho
railroads declare that as a question of
policy it would bo desirable for the
city to do so.
This proposition was carried by
about 3,500 votes. ,
Mayor Dunne construes the pas-
sago of tho $75,000,000 certificates and
public policy proposition sas a victory
for municipal ownership, but express-
ed his disappointment over the de-
feat of the proposition for municipal
operation.
Of the thirty-five aldermen who
were elected, Mayor Dunne claiui9
that nineteen are avowed champions
of municipal ownership and that he
will have much less difficulty in pass-
ing measures relating to that doctrine
through the city council than has been
his fortune heretofore.
Beside the question of municipal
ownership the issue was made in many
of tho aldermanic contests of whether
the saloon licenses of the city shall be
$500 or $1,000. The liquor interests
made a strong fight against any alder-
man who was up for re-election who
had voted for the license of $1,000. Of
the fifteen men against whom they
put their influence twelve were elect-
ed and three defeated. Of the nine
aldermen tip for re-election who voted
for the continuance of the $500 license,
all were returned to their seats in the
council.
