 It is said that the Atlantic < Pacific railroad will expend two million five hundred thousand dollars in placing the roadbed, bridges and depot build. ings of the line in thorough repair. The shops of the company at Albuquerque will be enlarged. Thirty-five men will be put on each section immediately and the roadbed put in first-class condition |-Mohave Miner.
 Good mathematicians have figured 1t out, that the money realized by the railroad company, since the 10th Of
 January, from the difference of freight
 rates, which went into effect on that
 date, and the rates in effect prior 10 that time, have been sufficient to pay
 the taxes of the company. Atany rate,
 the taxes have been paid and freight
 rates again reduced to what they were
 before January 10th.
 W. B. Riddle left on this afternoon train for Albuquerque. During his brief visit here he confirmed the previously
 formed opinion of him among our busi-
 ness men, that he thoroughly appre-
 ciates the importance of the trade oi this section, and will do all in his power to further the best interests of all classes
 and assist in the development of our
 resources, 80 far as liberal policy on the part of the Atlantic & Pacific will do it.
 The melting snow has caused the rOad-bed of the railroad tO become
 pretty soft in places, and just after the
 train had emerged from the cut beyond
 the old log house, to-day, the rails
 spread and derailed car load of mer-
 chandise. The passenger coach behind it remained on the track, while the en- zine and the car containing \. A.
 MoOre's horses, ill front e it, also re- mained on the track, and the passen-
 gers, mail and express were brought in, in the stock car.
 The case of J. H. Merton, charged
 with abusing his wife, was yesterday
 postponed, in Judge Fleury's court, un-
 til Tuesday, March 18th. There are two
 sides to every case, and this one has an
 entirely different side to that reported
 to this paper yesterday. Instead of
 neglecting his family, Merton, 1t is said |,
 provides we'll for them, as can he shown
 by the commissary's books at Whipple.
 He is good mechanic, and bears an
 excellent reputation both with his fellow
 soldiers and officers of the company.
 The details of his troubles in connec-
 ton with the present charge will no
 doubt be fully brought out in the trial.
