Put the kibosh on (3)

I think it could be either:

end

nix

(Other definitions for end that I've seen before include "scrap" , "Extreme" , "Aim - point - finish" , "Complete" , "SECOND PART OF 10" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, the USA Today, the LA Times, the King Feature Syndicate and The Wall Street Journal.
