The as sassination of John JL F(ftc by Deputy Sheriff Joseph Johnson and an attempt at lynching, frustrated by Sheriff Dick Davis and poases and later a race be tween the sheriff and the posse with the ' prisoner for & special train and, angry and excited mob of 2000 people bent on vengeance, were some of the wild scenes enacted in Trinidad this ax ternoon. : The assassination of Fox was the most eold-blooded murder ever commie ted in Lias Animas county. Fox was standing at a desk, in the lobby of the postoffice, reading a newspaper with hn back to the door. Johnson entered, six shooter in hand, and, without the least warning sneaked up. behind Kox am fired. The fbollet entered behind the left ear and come out at the'forhead passed through a glass door into the elevator lobby,, and grazing the head of a man standing in the elevator.; Fox fell backwards, dead, and Johnsontcool Jy walked from -r the posttmee, an started toward the county jail when he was arrested by another deputy sheriff and placed in 'the county jail. The news spread like wildfire and soon a mob of 1000 people gathered in fron't of the postoffice, making threats of lynching. When the body of Fox was earried by the mOb and placed in the nndertaker'a wagon the sight seem ed to turn them to frenzy 'and a rush was made for the county jail amid loud eries of "Lynch the' murderer." In the meantime the sheriff swore in fifty deputies, who .surrounded the jau, and when the mob reached within half a block Sheriff Davis halted them and said: ! As sheriff, I am sworn to protect mf prisoners. I will kill the first man who attempts to come up the steps. If yon get Johnson it will be over my dead body.'? ..... r This had the effect of checking the mob who, lacked, a leader, and after motterimf vengeance for. an hour; the mob re-formed in jront of the post office, when fla for lynching wfre onenlr jdisenseed. Several prominent citizens addressed the mob and during this time Sheriff Davis ordered s spe- eial train on,the Colorado & Southern Tetter. Johnson 'sufrbunded by depu'tie- was started from the jail on the, dead run to tho waiting tram, three blocks away. This news reached, the mob, which started pellmell after he posse, crow in r in numbers en route, until ful ly 2500 people were gathered.? The sheriff succeeded in getting the prisoner on board but when the train started the mob was less than twenty yards nwav. enrsintr and throwing rocks.. Af ter the train ran about a hundred yards a coupling broke.' When the mob saw 'the engine leaving the caboose they rushed forward again, ycling like mad and paying no attention to the com mand of the posse to halt. In the nick 'of time the engine was again coupled and made a successful dash. When the mob saw it was foiled it dispersed. . o ash an tfcs " w Haw Always Bought Signature TONE IS FIRMER OTHERWISE LOCAL HOP SITTJA- TION" DOES NOT EXHIBIT SIGNS OP CHAKGE. - Numerous Growers Indicate Their Wil lingness to Form a Pool Upon Basis of Fixed Date or Price California Hop Company Enters Into the Cause Except that the tone has grown more pronouncedly firm the past few days, there is no change in the loeal hop situation. The growers and dealers who have hops on 'hand are holding out firm and ebow no signs of weaken ing, and the feeling among them is that they are going to win out, or hold out for at least sixty days yet in .fn at tempt to do so. Considerable inquiry is being received almost daily, but the dealers are unable to do any business, and are making very little effort to in duce the growers to depart from their set views of the situation; they i are simply doing what they are compelled to do sit by and await developments. The effort of M. II. Hurst of Califor nia and others to induce the growers to form a pool of their foldings upon the basis of a fixed date or price have begun to bear fruit, as is evidenced by cards received by Secretary Winstanley of the Oregon Hop 'Growers' Associa tion from several growers, who signify their willingness to go into a eombma tion. These cards represent an aggre sate of oyer 1300 foales. The instruc tions sent out by Mr. Durst in his eir cular letter to the growers solicited them to either make reply to him di rect or to iMr. Winstanley here, and it may be that many of the growers have forwarde.l their cards to Air. Ihirst at Alameda CaL It appears now that the growers of all states and countries ex cept Oregon have formed pools of their holdings, and the eyes of the hop world now look to Oregon alone for the ex pected break. The California Hop Company of San Franeisco, a co-operative "association, has now taken up tne pool question, and is urging upon the, Oregon grow ers the great need of organization in their cause. As an evidence of this fact Secretary Winstanley of the asso ciation was yesterday in receipt of a copy of a circular letter which this company is sending out to the grow ers and dealers having hops in their possession. A copy or tnis letter roi-lows: 'market has been directed against yon, tho solders in Oregon, for they well knw if they mabe any material break in your ranks they will have you at their mercy. "Now, there is" only one sure way to avoid this, and that is to pool on a time or a price limit. If yon should bring , this about it will be flashed all over the world, and will not only bring the short sellers and bears to time with a stiff jolt, but it will also . encourage the holders in England and the grow ers in New York state. There is no question that there will be before long a great demand for every bale of hops, for we are at $his time on the very threshold of summer, and if you stand together firm and steadfast in demand ing a price which the natural law of supply and demand justifies, you will not only be doing, a duty to yourself, but , you will also offer to the short sellers a stinging rebuke in answer to their tactics from which it will take them years to recover. "IT you pool now it will mean the withdrawal of about 20,000 bales from the market. It will mean the destruc tion of the combination formed against you. You, will then have the situation under your control. , "The holders in California are few but firm as the Bock of Ages.

He lit his eigar for the fifth time and took a few strenuous puffs. "That man Osier's statement is not worth any serious thought. Why, just look at this," and he handed me a neatly typewritten page on which he had compiled a list of men whose names will go down to time immemorial and who had not reached the zenith of their greatness until they were more than 40. Glancing down the list 1 saw Aristotle, Chaucer, Cervantes, Oli-j ver Cromwell, JJefoe, Mahommed, ! Morse and a few others, each with a list of his achievements appended. An I attached postscript indicated that he had sent the following vindictive com munication to Dr. Osier: "I guaran tee to put my list through a door an inch and a half thick,; and if you will stand behind that door, there will be enough force left in the blow to knock you out; and I am 46 years of age.7 Goodness.

V By way of proving the fallacy of all this talk about his not liking women reporters, he told me some interesting yarns about his interviews a dozen years ago with some of those women whose. names have since become house hold words, ne seems to consider it one of the privileges of his profession to nave known them. And just to show his interest in one or, obscurity he reached for a pen and some paper, and wrote a nice little autograph letter, laboriously spelling out my name from a little square piece of pasteboard that lay on the' table before him. That little autograph letter contained his alleged pleasure to have met; me, ana finished up with a tribute to the women in general of this "great land of the free." . I intend to keep that letter.

The note was made payable jnithin one year from the date of issue and calls for the sum of $250 with interest at the rate of 6 per cent per annum.; As security for the payment of this note the state land board held a mort gage upon a tract of land owned lv Bordune at the time he lxrrowed the money. Bordune sold the land without mentioning the fact to the purchaser mat it was covered by mortgage and asl he made no other provision for the payment or the amount due, the state land board the purchaser had him ar rested iion the charge of obtaining money ty false pretenses.
