MIR. REED FOR SPEAKER.
The Portland Congressman Nominated on
the Second BallOt-He Gains
anaEasy Victory.

WASHINGTON, Dec 2.-The result of the
ballots taken in the Republican caucus
to-day tells the whole story OF the contest
for The speakership. The western candi.
dates did not hold Their supporters in line
81" ~" '' W. REOGNl,GGnn-- Gn-9Sef'e'S 10 give
L.. Jns came into the house be-
fore the aucus solid for their respective
candidates. The western men were COM
bined and confident. Probably a half
dozen of them felt that Mr.. Reed was GO
ing to be elected, and in the face of this
conviction declared that they would stand
by their own candidates until the speaker
vas elected. All they needed to defeat
the Maine candidate was to be as solid as
they said they were.
The first move of the western men was
to draw up a resolution for an open bal
lot. They expected 10 get test vote on
this, but the Reed men acceded to the
proposition at once.
The first public announcement of Mr..
Reeds nomination was made at the west
lobby door, and in an instant there was
tumult. A half-dozen nervy supporters
of the Portland congressman dashed Wild
ly through the crowded corridors yelling,
Reed, Reed" at the top of their voices
voices. The excitement soon quieted
down, and after they voted for clerk the
corridors became almost deserted.

PUBLIC MONEYS


WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.-Senator Vests
committee, which has been investigating
the dressed beef business, resumed the
examination of witnesses Saturday.
P. D. Armour, of Chicago, was the
first witness. He said he had been in
the beef business all his life; that the
dressed beef business began to be i'm
portant ten years ago, but for two or
three years has not been remunerative.
Methods had to be studied and the busi-
ness learned. In 1881 or 1882 it became
a paying business. "Prices are lower
now," said the witness, "than they were
when we began the dressed beef business
on the range. The decrease in prices,
however, has not been so great as 40 or
80 per cent"
Armour was asked to what he attribut-
ed the decrease in prices. He said he had
prepared written statement which would
give his views.
w. J. Quinn, one Of Armour's "young
men," as he termed him, read long
statement which included figures of the
business for term of years and COM
parison of prices at Chicago.

TERRITORIAL TIPS.

The Albuquerque Citizen now calls the
resentment, indeed-Optic.
Martin Amador has received the ap.
pointment of U. S. deputy marshal for the
3d judicial district of New Mexico. He is
the well known Las Cruces hotel man.
BY the rules adopted by the supreme
court Of the territory, this term of court
can only last seven weeks, so it will
come to close at the end of next week,
unless special term should be called
Optic.
Las Vegas note: The 600-light-alter-
nating-current Corless dynamo and fifty
five converters have just been received
by the Electric Light & Milling company
in this city. This addition to the plant
is for the purpose of furnishing the cur
rent for the incandescent lights, nearly
500 of which have been put in.
One case against w. B. Burlingame, the
ex-county treasurer of Socorro, was
quashed at Albuquerque, and the cause
alleged was that A. 7. Harrison, foreman
of the grand jury, failed to indorse the in
dictment. MIR. Harrison is out in card
declaring he did indorse the document.
Another and similar charge against Bur
lingaine is on,trial to-day.
Col. Haren, immigration agent OF the
Santa Fe, is just in receipt of letter
from Chihalis, in the state of Washing
ton, written by DR.. J, S. Herndon wish
ing to get maps and all available infor-
nation concerning New Mexico, as it
was the intention of large number of
the citizens of Chihalis to Locale in this
territory if the reports were favorable.
Work began to-day at the Rio Grande,
above Fort Selden, on an important irri-
cation project for Mesila valley. The

extending to the line of Texas, near Ell
Paso. A right of way, with the privilege
OF taking out the canal on the military res
servation, has been secured from the gov
ernment. The promoters of this scheme,
of such inestiuable value to the Mesilla
valley, are Major W. H. H. Llewellyn, f.

POSTAL TELEGRAPH.
Several Important suggestions in the
Annual Report of Mr.. Wauamaker.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-POstmaster Gen.
Wanamaker, in his annual report, says
OF the proposed limited post and tele-
graph service, which the postmaster gen
eral hoped to have outlined in this report
for congress to consider:
| confess to disappointment in that the
negotiations with the Western Union
Telegraph company did not lead to a
scheme which hoped to submit whereby
the people at large could have the benefit
of the telegraphic service at popular rates.
1t is stated that merchants, bankers and
newspapers are now the principal custom
ers of the telegraph companies. With
lower telegraphic rates and with stations
at the windows of postoflices an entirely
new class OF business would grow up, af-
fording great convenience to many not
now in the habit of using the wires.
The great propriety and advantage Of
the united service can not be questioned
from the point OF convenience and econ
omy to the people. There is no reason
whatsoever why night messages of the
telegraph should not be delivered as pos
tai matter by the first morning delivery
carriers. This is proper postotlice busi-
ness and would add to the profits Of the
department. The vast network Of wires
covering the country could easily reach
many of the village postoffices and bene-
fit more people than by stopping at rail
road stations, which are often q mile or
more distant from where the people live
An experiment could be easily and quick
ly made to ascertain whether a demand
