Denver, Jan. 4.— Stretching its hands So as to cast a shadow over every man and woman in any way ‘ implicated in election frauds in the city and county of Deuver, on, before or after Novem ber 8, the supreme court has ordered an investigation so sweeping in its scope that every phase of the election may lie scrutinized and everything that bears upon it in any way may be made known by judicial inquiry. Alva Adams, Democratic candidate for governor, who appeared from the returns to have been elected, but who has declared that he does not want the office tainted with fraud, asked the court to open every Denver ballot box, but the order of the court goes beyond the mere examination of the ballots and provides for an investigation of the registration lists, the campaign exjien- diturres, and, in brief, all election matters. Samuel \V. Belford, attorney for Adams, and Henry J.- Hersey, at torney for the Republicans, asked the court to make its order of siteh breadth that the court need not stop at anything in the investigation. The court said that was what it meant to do, and in structed the lawyers to agree ujion the wordingjif the order, and present it to the court for arpoval. Chief Justice Gabbert said that while the petition did not state facts entitling the petitioner to such an in vestigation as proposed, the court had de<d<led that an investigation might end in discovering the guilty persons who were responsible for the commis sion of the gross frauds that had been revealed in the contempt proceedings. There must have been some persons be hind the election officers and others who committed frauds, the court be lieved. ATTEMPT A BREAK Seven Convicts at Folsom Make Dash tor Liberty. .GENERAL MOVE. President is Making Several Changes Among Ambassadors. Washington, Jan, 8. ■— President Roosevelt is devoting some time at presont to consideration of important appointments in the diplomatic and consular service,.which are to he made formally by him at the beginning of* next March. Secretary Hay had conference with the president today be fore the meeting of the cabinet, and it is understood that the matter of ap pointments in the diplomatic service was one of the subjects discussed W hile no official announcement of the president’ s intention regarding the po sitions has yet been made, it is known that he has decided upon several changes. Joseph H. Choate, ambassa dor to the court of St. James, has indi cated that he does not desire to con tinue in that position. He will be suc ceeded by Whiteslaw Reid, proprietor of the New York Tribune, who was at one time minister to France. General Horace Porter, American •ambassador to France, will retire from that position soon after Mareh 4 . He was appointed b y the late Presidnt Me Ki'nley, and, with the expiration o f’his present term, will have served the United States at the French capital eight years. The president has decid ed on'General Porter’ s successor, but at this time no announcement of his de cision can be-made. Charlemagne Tower, American am hassador to Germany, and Robert S McCormick, America»» ambassador to Russia, will continue at their respect ive posts. . Bellamy Storer, American ainbas sador to Austria-Hungary, will continue in his present place until the president decides to transfer him to another post in the diplomatic service. As to the ambassadorship to Italy, nothing definite can be said now. It has been rumored, that Ambassador George Von L. Meyer is to succeed General Porter at Paris, but it can be said that such a change is not certain. The probabilities are that Mr. Meyer will remain at Rome. General Powell Clayton having deckled to relinquish his jiost as ambassador1 to Mexico at the end of tbe present admhmfjsjdion, he will be succeeded,,by Edwin H. Con ger,' now United States minister to China. It is not expected that Mr Conger will continue long at the Mex- ican capital, as he is unilerstood to 'in tend to refttrn tohishonfe state of Iowa to be a candidate in succession to Gov ernor Cummins. He will be succeeded by David E . Thompson, Nebraska, who at present is minister to Brazil. Mr. Thompson accepted the appoint ment to Brazil with the understanding that he would be appointed to a higher place in the diplomatic service as soon as opportunity afforded. Mr. Conger will be suceetled at the court of Pekin by William W . Rock- hill, at present director of the bureau of American republics, who is recogniz ed as an authority on all subjects per taining to China and the Chinese. John K. Gowdy, who was appointed by President McKinley American con sul general at Paris, will be succeeded by F. II. Mason, who is now consul general to Berlin. In succession to Mr. Mason, John Lewis Griffiths, of Indianapolis,, will be name«!. It is expected that some other changes will lie made in the corps of American ministers, but at this time they are not obtainable for publication. OREGON STATE ITEMS OF INTEREST TWO FREE COURSES.
