QUESTION WILL PROBABLY COME
BEFORE PUEBLO CON-
VENTION.
Pueblo, Colo., Sept. 10.—The ques-
ion of state versus federal control
3f water and other natural resources
which will probably come before the
National Irrigation Congress at its
Pueblo meeting, September 26-30, has
special interest for Colorado and her
siRter states, due to the fact that
several interstate Breams have their
beginning in Colorado am} are also
used in others, notably the Rio
Grande and Arkansas.
The questions of storage reservoirs
on the headwaters of the Rio Grande
intimately connected with the
Elephant Butte project and Engle
Dani in New Mexico, which is plan-
ned to supply water from the Rio
Grande to the thirty acres or New
Mexico and Texas and also to supply |
certain water to Old Mexico in ac-
cordance with treaty obligations.
Judge C. C. Holbrook of Alamosa,
one of the best posted men on this
subject in Colorado, has been ap-
pointed a delegate to the congress,
and will be prepared to defend the
San Luis Valley position if the ques-1
tion comes before the delegates. New
Mexico and Texas are coming with
strong delegations and will*see that
they do not get the worst of it.
The general question of state con-
trol will be presented by Judge
Frank H. Short of California and Gif-
ford Plnchot will be on hand to sec
that the federal control side is rep-
resented.
The recent suit tiled on behalf of
Kansas interests to prevent the pre-
sent large use of the Arkansas flow
in Colorado will probably resuH in
greater interest and attendance from
Kansas.

EDWARD JULIAN, Mcl!\T0SH I'L'h,
ACQUITTED AT CHECO-
TAH.
Muskogee, Ok., Sept. 16.— Edward
Julian, county clerk of McIntosh Co
was acquitted by a jury at Checotah
of the charge of murdering Joe
Grammer.
The killing took place at Checotah
last January. Julian approached
Grammer on the street and opened
fire on him with a six-shooter. Gram-
mer was unarmed. Julian pleaded
self-defense and produced evidence to
show that he had information that
Grammer and others had formed
conspiracy to kill him.
Julian killed "General" Dunlap in a
hotel at Eufala two years ago when
the county seat fight was on between
Eufala and Checotah, but was ac-
quitted of a charge of murder, plead
ing self-defense in that case.
While Juliau is county clerk of the
county and the county seat is
Eufala he has not been in his office
since he killed Dunlap, a deputy
transacting all business for him.
Julian was a Checotah partisan in
the county seat fight, which led to
both of the killings.
Kansas City, Mo., Sept. 16.—Soon

The newsboy notified the train crew
and after the train had proceeded a
short distance it backed up and un-
successfully search for the man. His
hat was found. It is believed the
man was only slightly stunned by the
fall and had fled.
According to the newsboy, the man
said he whs on his way to Minneapo-
lis. The police here are unable to
identify the man from the descrip-
tion given.

Mose Ginn, a well known one-legged
man, suffered a peculiar accident this
morning. He was walking in front of

wont to rest, broke, and threw his

This snapped the thigh bone of the
stump clean in two, the sound being
heard some distance away. Bystanders
rushed to his assistance, and he was
immediately given surgical attention
