JOSIE ANDERSON'S COMPANY
SHE DID NOT KNOW HE WAS A DETECTIVE
He Learned, as He Started Out to Do, that
She was an Incendiary and a Horse-
thief, and Has Told the
Authorities About Her.
Uoldkn, Col,, September 16.—The New
York ranch, a somewhat famous place, is
situated a few miles from this town. A mile
away from that is a mine owned by one
Anderson, who has a daughter named
Joeie. The country round about is given
up generally to stock-raising. For some
time previous to the 1st of April last a good
deal of cattle and horse stealing had been
done in the vicinity. The people who lived
on Use New York ranch were suspected, but
as tJbe family consisted only of a widow and
her sons, both yonng, it was thought at first
that the suspicions were unfounded. At
leigth, however, absolute proof of their
guilt in one ease was found, and the
mother, a Mrs. Gilford, and one of her sons
were arrested. Their trial soon followed,
and on their conviction, the woman was
sentenced to one year in prison and the
young man to five years.
' As soon as Mrs. Gifford was placed in
custody she made an arrangement with a
man named Rothman by the terms of which
the latter was to live on-the ranch during
hex absence to. take care of the property.
Mis; Gifford had only been in the peniten-
tiary a day or two when, one dark and
stormy night in April, the New York ranch
was destroyed by .fire. Rothman's fami'v
were on the "premises dnd were awakened
frojnasound slumber byt^he roar of the
fiames. Escaping in their night clothes,
they were able to save none of Mrs. Gif-
fora's property and but very little of their
own. The rrext morning Rothman found a
girl's straw hat near the ruins of the ranch,
and in the soft earth were the footprints of
a horse leading up to and away from one
of the rear doors of the burned building.
As Mrs. Gifford had an insurance of $8000
on her property in the State Insurance
company, the agent of that corporation in
Denver was soon on the ground, and to him
Rothman made known the facts which had
come to his knowledge. Satisfied that the
ranch had been burned for the insurance
the agent returned to Denver, and a day
later a detective made his appearance.
After a careful investigation and a close
inquiry into the antecedents of Mrs. Gif-
ford, be came to the conclusion that that
woman had had as a confederate in her
cattle and horse-stealing operations, and
probably in the conspiracy' against tne in-
surance company—no less a person than
Mies Josie Anderson. It therefore became
his duty to make the acquaintance of the
girl.
Pretending to be the agent of wealthy
English speculators, he called at the Ander-
son place to negotiate for the puroha.se of
the old man's mine. He found the otvaer
willing to sell, and after a protracted dicker
the sale was made, the detective agreeing
to pay Anderson ^3000 for the property.
During all this time, however, the detective
had not given his whole tioie to business.
Be found Josie Anderson to be a sprightly
and vivacious girl of 18, with a stout body,
a round, rosy face well bronzed, clear blue
eyes and an abundance of wavy brown hair,
and it was not long before the mountain
girl and the gay agent were making love
most industriouslv. Josie could ride a
horse as well as any man in the State, and
her cleverness with the rifle was amazing.
Together they took many long rides, and
before the mine had been purchased the
a£ent and Josie were engaged to be mar-
ried.
On one or two occasions the girl in con-
versation with her lover referred to the
fact that she had been suspected of burning
the New York ranch, but her companion
cleverly turned the subject off by pretend-
ing that it was too painful and preposterous
for him to hear. He liked the wild, free
life that she led, he said, and thus in each
other's company they were seen day after
day in mountain and valley, until in every
household it was common talk that Josie
Anderson had made a great catch, and that
if she would behave herself in the future
she might be somebody after all. In the
course of time the girl referred once more
to the New York ranch fire, and, evidently
with the object of increasing the admiration
of her suitor, said that adetective in Golden
had accused her of the crime, and that she
put him to flight by raising her six-shooter
on him.
" You are a brave girl," said the agent,
stroking her hair, "and I am proud To be
loved by a woman like you."
" I never loved anybody but you," she
answered, " and I never will."
The agent then said that detectives were
scoundrels, and at great length he recount-
ed some of his adventures with them. show-
ing in every case how- he had outwitted
them in their attempts to familiarize them-
selves with matters which concerned him
alone. The girl approved of his course,
complimented him on his shrewdness, and
mentioned the burned ranch.
" But you didn't burn the ranch, did you?"
lie &sbcdi
" Weli, I did," she replied, looking him
straight in the face, and then on oue of
their rambles she gave him in detail all the
circumstances. For two or three years she
Jsad been actively engaged in stealing cat-
tle and horses. The cattle were all driven
to the New York ranch and butchered, but
the horses were sold at various places.
When Mrs. Gifford and her son were arrest-
ed, Josie visited the former in jail at
Golden and learned for the first time that
the ranch was insured. Mrs. Gifford sug-
gested its destruction, and Josie agreed to
Bring it about, first going there to remove
from the room in which Mrs. Gifford's
goods were stored those that were of most
value. This room was accessible from the
outside, and the key to the door was placed
in the girl's keeping. The next night, with-
out assistance, Josie rode to the place, and,
gaining an entrance, put Mrs. Gifford's
silver and best dresses into a bag and car-
ried them off. The night following this,
while a heavy storm was in pro-
gress, the young woman again rode to the
ranch for the porpose of destroying it. On
her saddle, besides a brace of revolvers,
£he carried a suit of male Clothing, securely
rolled in a bundlerto be used in case of
pursuit. On nearihg the ranch she found
the lights all out in the portion occupied by
the Rothman family, and, riding up to the
door of which she had the key, she quietly
dismounted and entered. Once on'the in-
side the girl ripped open a straw bed, scat-
tered the contents around and fired them.
Then, going outside, ehe mounted her horse
and waited until she saw that the flames
were spreading satisfactorily, and present-
ly dashed away. On leaving the place her
hat blew off, and as she could not find it,
she continued her flightwithout it. Instead
of going home she continued on to the Berry
ranch, where she arrived at 4 o'clock in the
morning, and where a bed was given to her.
When the detective lover heard this con-
fession, which tallied exactly with his oam
theory of the case, he expressed renewed
admiration for the girl's bravery, called
her by \arious terms of endearment, and
spoke of the pride that would fill him when
he could call her his wife. Thus encour-
agail. the girl rattled on:
"Why, that's nothing. I've done things
fifty times worse than that. I've navigated
piles of horses and cattle in my day, and in
many cases I have butchered the cattle
with my own hand on the same night that I
navigated them. I've got $2000 that I've
saved one way and another, and when Mrs.
Gifford gets out of prison and secures her
insurance money, I'm to have $500 of that
for the part I took in the job."
The detective continued his attention to
Josie until a few days ago, taking her to
Denver on several oceasions, to go to the
theater aim to make purchases for her wed-
ding outfit, and at last, after getting from
her lips enough evidence to send both her
and Mrs. .Gifford to the penitentiary, and
all in the hearing of third persons who were
concealed &)wut to mm M DePYW tt
which their conversations were held, he
quietly left Golden, and has not been seen
here since. No prosecution has yet been
begun, because the insurance company will
make no move, unless Mrs. Gifford does,
and as everybody around here is afraid of
Josie, no one is anxious to appear as a
complaining witness against her. It is be-
lieved, however, that her arrest will soon
he made. A rumor got out last night that
she got lynched, but it wag found to be un-
true.
A man who saw Miss Anderson yester-
day and spoke to her about the detective,
says that she colored up, and, grasping her
revolver, observed:
" I've met smooth ones before in my day,
but he's the slickest man I ever saw, or
ever expect to see. I'd like to draw just
one bead on him."
GIBBB WANTS THE LAST WORD.
And il It Will Give Him Peace He Can Have It.
To The News.
Dallas, September 25.—In last Sunday's
issue (September 10) you had an editorial
purporting to be a reply to my letter show-
ing the falsity of your statements in a pre-
vious editorial. I don't care to enter in'o
any controversy or argue you into a better
opinion of myself or of the partial friends
who recently gave me their support. In
your comments you stated that during the
recent strike at Fort Worth I made a speech
that incited the strikers. To show you how
the world is given to lying and how little
yon had to base your statement on, I was
not in Fort Worth until after the strike was
over, and never made a speech there until
about three months after that time, and
then it was a joint discussion between Mr.
Furman and myself. Every man in Dallas
and Fort Worth knows that the statement
is not true, but among some of your readers
there may be those wno believed it. If you
will confine yourself to facts I will not com-
plain of any conclusion you may draw.
Respectfully. B. Gibbs.
Mexican Items.
A letter from the city of Zacatecas says:
The mortality here reaches from 7X to 10
per cent., being greater than in any city in
the world, even Calcutta.
The Two "Republics says: Since 1821 the
country has undergone a series of revolu-
tions and counter revolutions which have
«reatly retarded its progress. Ever since
le attainment of independence there have
been a progressive party and a reactionary
party in Mexican politics, and the conquests
made by the liberal party whiohhas swayed
the destinies of the country at various
times since 1821, and continously since
1867, have been purchased with the
blood of martyrs. The Mexican peo-
ple, whose traditions had taugbt
them nothing but obedience to a more
powerful nation, were in the knowledge of
their rights and obligations the veriest in-
fants, whereas the North American
colonists who had enjoyed all the rights and
blessings bequeathed to them by their an-
cestors with the Magna Charta, were wheu
they ceased to be subjects qualified for all
the responsibilities of citizenship. The
Mexican people found after they had se-
cured their independence that although
they had known how to overthrow Span
ish rule, they did not knov how to rule
themselves, Under suoh ciroumstances. is
it surprising that there were revolutions
and counter revolutions? Would it not be
surprising if the contrary had happened?
Mexico is not so far advanced politically as
some of her sisters, yet she has overcome
almost insuperable obstacles and now oc-
cupies a respectable position among the
nations of the earth, and her progress con-
tinues with unslackened pace. Then we say
all honor to the wisdom and patriotism of
the men who conceived and accomplished
the independence of Mexico, and honor is
also due in no stinted measures to the pa-
triots who have brought the country
through chaos to her present condition.
The Two Republics says of the Cutting
cass: The Galveston News says: " As far
as can be discovered with the naked eye,
Secretary Bayard won what he played for
with Mexico." We would like to know
where The News can see anything that has
been won by Mr. Bayard in his recent
questions with Mexico. Cutting was kept
in prison two months after Mr. Bayard's
peremptory demand for his immediate re-
lease was made, and then liberated in ac-
cordance with Mexican law. Perhaps The
News will kindly explain what Mr. Bayard
won by sending Mr. Sedgwick to Mexico.
We are inclined to think that if he won
anything it was something he did not play
for. Recent publications in American
newspapers show that the legal ad-
viser of the state department made, some
years ago, one of the best arguments ever
presented in favor of extra-territori U
jurisdiction—just what his superior denies
to Mexico in the Cutting case. Professor
Wharton, the person referred to, asserts
in a work entitled Conflict of Laws most
emphatically that the courts of the United
States can inflict punishment for offenses
committed in other countries. It appears,
however, that Mr. Bayard has ignored the
views of his legal adviser in the Cutting
case simply because they do not suit hia
purpose. Under the circumstances we see
no reason why Professor Wnarton should
continue to regard his services as indis-
pensable to the state department.

Milwaukee, September 26.—At Kaukau-

a sewer came on the ruins of a stone build-
ing at a depth of eight feet. The stone first
found bore traces of fine workmanship
and polish. Further digging developed a
quantity of ashes, about twenty-flye bnshels
of which were removed, when another
wall was struck. The stones were
fine, some being blackened as if by
fire and smoke; others must have
been subjected to great artificial
heat as they had crumbled into lime. The
work was found but a foot or two above
bedrock, and shows evidence of workman-
ship that could have been performed only
by a highly civilized race. It must have
been done years ago, as a large elm tree
had grown over the ruins. The discovery
led to the advancement of many theories.
What Bartholomew Says.
Hartford, Conn., September 26.—Letters
from Mr. Bartholomew, in Montreal, say
that he always believed he could pay all of
his own obligations, and that he thought the
corporations he indorsed for would event-
ually make themselves good. He offers to
do all he can to help his creditors
to realize on his assets. J. W. Brooks and
E. A. Btedman have each qualified as re-
reivers of the Charter Oak Life Insurance
company, for $250,000 each. A statement
of the Hartford Silk company shows its
hopeless bankruptcy.
Texas Fever,
St. Louis, September 26.—A special from
Marshall, Mo., says: Since Friday,Septem-
ber 17, J. Coyle, a prominedt cattle dealer
of this city, has lost twenty-five head of cat-
tle from Texas fever. The native cattle
contracted the diseas from a herd of Texas
calves which were shipped here from Kan-
sas City early this summer and placed on
Mr. Coyle's ranch. The disease has spread
to other herds, and several deaths have oc-
curred among them. Cattle have been dy-
ing on an average of four a day on Mr.
Coyle's ranch.

dreadful accident.
This morning the Franklin street bridge
was the scene of a dreadful accident. I.
Wagner, who lives near the north end of
the bridge, was driving in a spring wagon
toward the south side, or main portion of
the city. Ho was accompanied by his two
children, Lewie and Myer. On nearing the
south end a street-car, going northward, met
the wagon. The horse became frightened,
swerved to one side, and ran the wagon
against the railing. This barrier, being
weak or rotten, gave way, the horse,
wagon and load being precipitated to the
hard ground below, a distance of twenty
feet. Persons who witnessed the accident
ran down the hill and extricated Wagner
and the children from the wreck of the
vehicle. Lewie, a 4-year-old child, was in-
stantly killed when the wagon struck the
ground, and one of Wagner's arms was
dislocated. Myer, the other child, escaped
with a few bruises. The horBe received a
number of severe bruises.
Justice A. R. Railey was summoned and
held the following inquest on the body of
the dead child, at tne residence of the
father, in the First ward:
I.Wagner, sworn: About 11
to-day I
bitched up my horse in the spring wagon
and started for the city, or rather the south
side of | the bayou. When I was nearly
across the bayou we met the street car
coming across the bridge, going on the
north side. My horse became frightened at
the car, shied to one side and went over the
bridge into the bayou bank, about
twenty feet. Both of my children—
•Lewie and Myer — were sitting on
the back seat when I started
and went over the bridge. When I was
picked up my arm was dislocated. Lewie
was found to be dead. The horse I consid-
ered perfectly gentle, but when he saw the
car he shied on one side, struck the ban-
nisters, and they being rotten over we went.
My Lewie is about 4 years old. This is
about all the information I can give.
The jury, after hearing the above testi-
mony, returned the following verdict:
We the jury believe from the evidence
before us that the deceased, Lewie Wagner,
came to his death from a fall he received
from Franklin street bridge, while in a
wagon with his father, trying to cross said
bridge, and his horse became frightened,
shied off over the side of said bridge below
on bank of bayou, a distance of twenty
feet; and we furthermore regard said
bridge as being unsafe for either man or
beast to cross.
Newspaper writers have frequently al-
luded to this bridge as a dangerous struc-
ture and warned the authorities to give it
an overhauling. Since a life has been lost,
it is now probable that workmen will be
ordered to place the bridge in a safe condi-
tion. Last year a large plank remained off the
left side footwalk, going north, for over ten
' ' ild

twenty-five feet would have been the result

fallen through the opening. A fall of
of a sudden passage through this hole,
nearly drowned.
This morning an Italian drove his horse
and wagon down Main street and into the
bayou. After watering the animal, he con-
cluded to keep in the water, skirt the edge
of the embankment and drive out at Travis
street. In a few seconds the horse struck a
deep place and the wagon went below the
surface. The -Italian made a great outcry
and called for help. Men rushed to his as-
sistance and dragged him to shore. With
the aid of ropes the horse and wagon were
pulled from the bayou.
