All this is Credited to the Quarantine Law

All CH1D Ae OICuAO0u w tHO ku0A 0AoAAC A0 .
ALBUQUERQUE, N. M, March 21.-The
cattle sanitary board OF this territory re-
ports that since the enactment OF the quar-.
antine law in 1877 against diseased cattle
being admitted, no case Of bovine disease,
and particularly Texas fever, has appeared
among the herds. Cattle are everywhere
in healthy condition, and are going into the
spring and summer seasons in most ex-
cellent state. The perfect health Of the
bovine stock of New Mexico during the
time the quarantine law has been in
operation, proves conclusively that Texas
fever does not originate within the borders
of this territory, and the law against it's
possible introduction is so effectively ad-
ministered that it cannot be brought here.
Northern buyers of young stock for matur-
ing purposes are in the territory, contract
ing for herds which are permitted to pass
quarantine lines north without inspection.

Batch of Messages from the President-A

A Batch Of Messages from the Presidential
Number Of Nominations Made.
WASHINGTON, March 21.-Senate met at
1 p. m. .Pruden. one of the Presidents pri-
vate secretaries, appeared at the bar and
delivered sundry messages from the Presi-
dent. whereupon the Senate went into exec.
utiye session.
After brief executive session, without
opening the doors. the Senate took recess
until O'Clock, at which time. there being
NO further nominations, it adjourned.
The President sent the following nomina-
tions to the Senate: Miles G. Moore OF
Walla Walla, w. T., to be Governor Of
Washington Territory; Henry N. Blake Of
Montana, to be Chief Justice Of the Su-
preme Court Of Montana; John d. Fleming
Of Colorado to be United States Attorney
for the District OF Colorado.
It is practically settled that Fred G.
Brackett OF Washington will succeed e. w.
Youman as chief clerk OF the Treasury. It
is said that George Windmer OF Phila-
ddphia has accepted the Office Of supervis-
ing architect Of the Treasury.
WASHINGTON, D. c., March 21.-In execu.
tive session OF the Senate this afternoon,
Sherman announced that President Harri-
son had informed him that he, the presi.
dent, is 80 far along with his nominations
that the Senate might conveniently adjourn
next week. 1t is the expectation that the
special session will end Thursday or Friday
next.
In order to assist the president in his
intention, the Senate did not take the
usual three day recess, to-day, but will
meet again tomorrow.
This notification makes it practically
certain that no legislative business will be
transacted before adjournment. There
will probably be some discussion OF the
resolutions introduced, yesterday, by But
Ter, declaring that the Senate has power to
elect q president pro tenn. for service during
the entire term of Congress, the decision
by the Senate being decided by the number
Of Senators upon that disputed point.
In executive session, to-day, the Senate
confirmed number CT territorial and
postal nominations, comprising all that
had, up to date. been reported from the
committee. The list is, however. with
held, the Senate having failed to suspend
the operation of the rule which keeps con-
frmations secret and delays notification
to the President until two additional ex-
ecutive sessions shall have supervensd
without entry OF q motion to reconsider.
The nomination of Lewis Wolfey to be
Governor of Arizona, is still pending before
the committee on territorial affairs. Sena-
tor Pratt, chairman, said to-day: "We
are waiting to hear and receive all that
may be offered for and against Gen. VOL
fey. When that is done we shall consider
it all and give judicial decision. We
could not do less than that, and any man
is entitled to it," The charges, it is said,
are OF very serious nature, but the gen.
eral belief is they cannot be sustained, and
that General WolHsy's nomination will re-
ceive favorable report.

Tears, and His Brother Faints.
New YORK, March 21.-Robt. Siegel, son
of General Franz Siegel, who pleaded guilty
to the forging Of pension checks, was sem
fenced in the United States Court, to-day,
to six years imprisonment at hard labor.
The prisoner exhibited great nervousness
as Judge Benedict told him he had wronged
many persons, and that it was difficult to
find circumstances to warrant mitigation
OF punishment. Siege's young wife wept
bitterly in the rear Of the courtroom when
she heard the sentence pronounced. When
the prisoner was being taken to the jail,
his brother tainted in the hallway outside
the courtroom and was unconscious for
an hour.
The commissioner OF pensions writes to
notify those swindled through Siegel to
communicate through the Washington
Office.

Granite stock and other capitalists who
have formed the syndicate. The directory
was present in the person OF Presi dent
Hotter, Treasurer Parchen, Secretaries
Wells and Pardee, A. a. Mcdonald and Ed

The proposition submitted by the st.
Louis syndicate was to advance $50, 900,
fifty thousand OF which is to liquidate pas
due obligations, The purport OF the agree.
ment, which was accepted and entered into,
is that q new corporation will reformed,
to be known as
THE ELIzABETH MINING COMPANY,
with capital stock Of five million dollars,
divided into SOC, 600 shares at par value
OF 35 each. The syndicate agrees to furnish
the amount necessary to pay of all debts,
besides leaving 100000 in the treasury
for working capital.
The consideration the syndicate receives
for making this advance is 100000 shares
in the new company, and the same amount
to 10 to the stockholders OF the West Gran
ite company, which is to be distributed in
the ratio OF one share OF Elisabeth
FOR TWO OF THE WEST GRANITE.
The trustees will call a meeting Of the
stockholders to ratify their action, aud as
controlling share OF the stock was repre-
sented at the meeting, the deal may be con-
sidered ratified, and the meeting will be
held only to fill the legal requirements.
In view OF the fact that it was q question
Of the collapse OF the West Granite, forced
by the hammer, the trustees feel that their
action was the best one that could be taken
in the interest OF the stockholders, and
to-day the new company may be regarded
as strong one, financially, as can be re-
corded.
tits given out that the Elisabeth vein is
nothing less than the Bi-Metallic extension.
