Uvrlj "Co" In tiltItotnnclil of flu-
Court HOIINI * .
At about noon yesterday visitors at the
court house were startled at seeing
tbo coirldor of the hull on the main
Jloor , directly under the rotunda , smeared
with blood and beailng every evl-
deucu of having been the scene of
a deadly conflict. These who had been
about the building just before noon were
attiacted by loud erica nml shouting , and
the halls were quickly filled with a crowd
of people anxious to learn the cause of the
great commotion. They saw a man whose
face looked like a well-mangled beefsteak
vtandlng In the mlddlo of the Hoar howling
like a madman. Another man wan just
passing out of the front door , drawing his
coat about him to hldu tlio shirt bosom ,
which was bpattered with gore The man
with the face was James C. Stover , formerly
proprietor of a shoo store lu this city , and
the other man was A. S. Ritchie , au at
torney.
Pi am an eye-witness of the whole affali
a full account of the occurrence was ob
tained. Stover and hla wlfo were the. de
fendants In a suit In the eounty court In
which a local shoo jobbing house was en-
dcavoilng to leaner judgment for ceitaln
goods told to the. Stovers when they we'iei

torney In a suit brought by her In the
district c mi it to secure/ divorce from
Stover on the grounds of desertion and non-
Eiipport. In the latter case an order of
court has been made requiring Stover to pay
Ilia wlfu $ lf > per month for the support of
herself and the minor children.
When court adjourned jestcrday Mrs
Stover and Hltchlo left the couit loJin
together , and were about fifty feet
from the door when Stover came out
and called to his wife , asking her If
fcho would let him sec the chil
dren , Hltchlo nuked Mrs. Stover If her
husband had paid her the alimony for last
month. Itecclvliig a reply in the negative ,

piled. Stover was blinded by the blood and
Itltchle hastened out of thn building , coyer-
ing up his shirt , which was stained with
blood. The only marks of the conflict on
Jtltchle , aside from hla shirt , were a pair ot
bill If ed knuckles.

The full page statement of the Mutual
Life Insurance company of New York , on
another page ot this paper , la especially
worthy of careful perusal by all thoughtful
persons.
The magnificent showing ot fifty-thrco
} ears' buslncn proves that the originators
of the Mutual Life Insurance company of
New York Inld Its foundations broad and
deep , for It has prospered and maintained
Its Integrity and security through all the
panics which reckless speculation and polit
ical agitation have brought upon us during
those- many years
In tliesu davs of political unrest and un
certainty , many people arc unwilling to ven
ture their cnp'lnl ' In business ; but , however
It may bo about other Investments , the ne
cessity and wisdom of life Insurance cannot
be questioned.
Death flnda Its way Into all political camps
and wins Its victories Irrespective of parties.
Life Insurance Is an exact science , based
on laws more unalterable than the laws of
the Modes and Persians , the laws ot life and
death. IJvery possible contingency Is known
and guarded against. Nothing Is left to
guesswork or chance. The securities In
which funds may be Invested arc prescribed
by statute and the business Is under the
utilrt supervision of the state.
With these potent facts before them , we
admonish men and women , rich and poor ,
to commit the safe-guarding of their o.\vn
and their families financial Intcrcsta to this
great company.
In speaking of this all-Important subject
of life Insurance , Hon Chauncey M Depow
has well said. "It IH better than any form
of Investment lor the man of moderate
means Savings banks are slow and not
alwajs sure , for they am liable to 'runs' In
time ot panic ; the rate of Interest Is low
and sou must live longto accumulate any
largo or adequate sum. "
IJvcry form of business Is iubject to
change and may become less profitable , or
full entirely , especially If the head should be
taken away. Insurance Is co-operation. If
> ou illp and your family need money , they
dtavv from the accumulated resources of
thousands ot other men , a fund carefully
secured against loss and constantly increas
ing. "

The long postponed conference between
the representatives of the city and the
bondsmen of cecity Treasurer Uolln was
hold In the committee room of the city hall
je-sterday forenoon. It was largely an ex
haustive relation of facts and theories pre
viously stated and resulted In little bcjoml
emphasizing the Impression that the
Hoard of Education had very much com
plicated the situation when It settled Its
claim for $7 000 ,
The bo ml tin en were represented at the
conference by W. A. Paxton , John I" . Goad ,
Gustavo Andetson , George C. Darker , L D.
Fowler and their attorney , T. J. Mahoney.
Councllmen Wheeler , Kennard and Benawa
of the finance committee , City Attorney
Council and Louis Wcttling were present
to act for the city. Kennard wanted to
have a star chamber session , but his sug
gestion was denied by the Dondsmon. who
stated that they had nothing to conceal
Mr. Mahoney explained the position ot the
bondsmen. Ills statements were on the
same line that was covered In his written
proposition to the council , and his position
rested on the allegation that after the
$62,000 , which ho alleged had been Illegally
transferred from the city to the school
fund , was subtracted , the bondsmen were
only liable for something over $18,000 , Ho
said that the only question to be considered
was whether the city wished to sue the
bondsmen for the full amount
and then allow the bondsmen to
rulmhuisc themselves from the school
fund , or to settle with the bonds
men for the amount for which they would
bo ultimately liable , and themselves collect
from the Hoaul of Education the amount
whUi had been wrongfully transform ! to
the school fund. He declared that there
was no question from a legal standpoint
but that the Hoard of Education was liable
for the amounts that had been transferred
from city funds. In support of his position
he quoted a Massachusetts case In which
ono man was trustee for two corporations.
Ho had transferred money from the treasury -
ury of one to that of the other , and the
court had decided that the wronged corpor
ation hid undoubtedly the right to follow
the money Into the treasury where It had
been received Ho argued that this was
exactly a parallel case. If the city now-
had a riqht to follow this $ CJ,000 Into the
school fund and recover It , Its rights would
certainly subrogate to the bondsmen in case-
the whole amount In controversy should be
recovered from the bondsmen.
COMPLICATES MATTEHS.
Councilman Wheeler Inqulied why. If
they believed that the shortage to the school
fund was to gie\it , the bondsmen had settled
with the Hoara of Education. He was as
sured that this was done , by an altogether
different set of bondsmen , and In fact , Mr.
Mahoney continued , hi > notild not criticise
the bondsmen or the Board nf Education
for settling for $7,000 an apparent shortage
of $31,000 when the members of the Hoard
of Education themselves had been 1,0 anxious
to effect the settlement.
City Attorney Conncll stated that from a
legal standpoint the city had a plain right
of iccovery against trie bondsmen for the
full amount claimed. Whether thd suit of
the bondsmen ogalnbt the Hoard of Educa
tion would Ho In turn was not for him to
consider. In Us opinion the only thing the
committee could do was to sue the bonds
men for the full amount. .Then , If the
bondsmen should recover from the Board of
Education , it would place the responslbllltj
where It belonged. He added that there
was no question but that the action of the
Board of Education had seriously complicated
the situation It had been done against his
earnest protest , but when he tried to induce
Attorney Covell for the board not to advise
the settlement Covell had told him that he
did not need any advice and proposed to
inn the business of the board to suit him
self.
self.The
The bondsmen then tried to Induce the
representatives of the city to eon-
Eout that all the Issues of the case should
bo included ii > ono suit , the result to de
termine what proportion of the defalcation
should be made up by the Board of Educa
tion and how much by the bondsmen This
xv as argued for some time , but was opposed
by the city attorney and eouncllmeii. They
contended that the city had nothing to do
with the alleged accountability of the Board
of Education , but that the only policy they
could pursue was to bring suit against the
bondsmen for the full amount and leave
the bondsmen to obtain relief from the
board If they could
Mr. Barker brought up the proposition
that If the city would accept the offer
of settlement , the bondsmen would
guarantee to raise a subscription of $50,000
for the exposition. Ho would give $5,000
hlnibelf , but If he hod a suit for $100.000
hanging over his head he would consider
himself too poor to give a dollar. It was
nlso proposed that If thla proposition should
bo accepted the bondsmen would assign
their sto"k In the exposition to the city.
City Attorney Connell advised that it
would be best to file the petition against
the bondsmen at once , but Chairman Ken-
nard of the flnanco committee decided
against It. Consequently action was
posponcd until after the committee reports
to the council ,

A little flurry In western passenger circles
has been occasioned during the last week
by the discovery that certain unused full-
fee tickets were being offered for bale In
Denver at rates which spread desolation and
ittln In their train , The roads affected were
the Missouri Pacific , Union Pacific and Den
ver & Rio Grande , and the tickets were not
restricted In destination to near-by stations
No agent of any of the lines complained
against to the Western Passenger associa
tion could be found to have violated existing
agreements In a way to account for the
state of things , and the origin of the dis
turbing element became a source of serious
inquiry. Detectives were put on the cabe
anil as a result of the still hunt with which
they busied themselves , a gay young clerk
In the Denver postolllcc- jumped his job and
the town simultaneously , and Is supposed
to be In hiding somewhere In the clefts of
the adjacent rocks. Ills scheme was not nn
original or Ingenious one , but It had the
merit of simplicity. Ho went to ono of the
loads and got an order for a half-faro ticket
to some * convenient point. Most of the lines
me liberal with these favors to UIOFO who
have any claim to reeelvo them , and when
the ticket Ls Issued tlieio is nothing about
it tn Indicate that only halt-faro has been
paid In exchange for It.
Having made a beginning , this thrift }
younm man went the rounds of the roads
using the order already obtained from one
ofllclal as a lover to open other ticket cases
to him. In this way ho accumulated a con
slderablo number of this kind of tickets ,
getting as many as five from one road. He-
was able to put these on the market at
such figures as yielded him a satlbfactor )
profit , and still went far to demoralise pas-
Ecngcr rates on all. roads leading out of
Denver.

IMPEACHMENT IN PROSPECT
Police Have Charges Already Formulated
Against Judge Gordon.
TROUBLE IS ONE OF LONG STANDING
Police OUU-lnlN Dt-trtll Instutu
AVIierelu Thej Are Ilitnitlpiiiuicil
by tinMctlinilx IMirHtipil
by the Court.
At the next meeting of the Hoard of Tire
niul Police Commissioners Chief of Detectives
Cox will nlo a document that Mill call for
the beginning of Impeachment proceedings
against tlio police Juilge , If In future ho docs
not transact the police court business ns
the police otllclaU bellcvo It should be
transacted.
The re-niton for bringing the proceedings
Is found In the number of long continuances
that ha\e been entered In the cnscs Institu
ted by the police. The police court nt-
tornejs , so the officers sny , ha\c Inaugurated
a policy of continuing cases , especially those
charging larccnj from the person and
gambling , mull the prosecuting witnesses
become tired of walling for a trial and leave
the city. The eases arc then allowed to
conic to trial and are Invariably dismissed.
The police allege that such a course of
conducting eases , especially those of larceny
from the person , la calculated to Increase
such crlmca , and has lucicased them to a
considerable extent of late. It Is said that
disorderly characters openly boast that It
will avail the police nothing to cause their
nirest on the charge. Strong In that belief
they are said to ha\e piled their thieving
profession with \lgor ot late. Hardly a
week has pabscd during the last three
months that several cases of larceny have
net been reported.
When the cases conic to tr'al ' It frequently
happens that the police have lost track of
their complaining witnesses , or other wit
nesses , and no com Iction can be obtained
In such eises where the complaining wit
ness Is held either on bonds or In Jail these
continuances work hardship upon the wit
nesses , Inasmuch as they nre compelled to
spend their time and money awaiting the
trial. One late Instance Is particularly
cited by the police
On September 7 last , during State fair
week , n man was robbed by a colored
woman , wlo was nrrceted for the crime ,
Identified and the case was set for trial.
When the time ariivcd , however , a continu
ance was entered and this was followed by
others. BO that the cnso has not > et been
tried In the meantime the complaining
witness was released on bonds. He had not
a cent of money , and during all this delay
he obtained his food from the free lunch
places about the city or at the city Jail , and
slept In outhouses or at the station.
Another complaining- witness in a similar
case was unable to furnish bonds for his
release. He was consequently retained In
custody. Ho has been In the county Jail
for some tlmo awaiting the trial In which
ho appears as the complainant.
A gambling caseIs also mentioned , A
house was raided a month ago , and upon the
evidence found a complaint of gambling
was filed against the Inmates. The case
has not > ct come to trial.
The police maintain that the attornejs do
not make the motion for a continuance In
these cases for any legitimate reason , but
simply for the purpose of drawing out the
cases until they are dismissed. Kvldcnco
Is lost , witnesses disappear and other cir
cumstances arise which make It Impossible
to convict , and then the cases ore allowed
to como to trial.
The strongest objection Is coming from
the detective department , as this sjstcm hns
been used In the cases that the secret service
officers work up. It was for this reason that
Detective Cov felt called upon to make the
complaint Ho will recommend that the
ma > or Instruct the police Judge to be more
stringent In the matter of continuances and
that ho begin Impeachment proceedings If
ho docs not change his course.
