While the majority of people hereabouts are of the belief that the parties arrested were implicated in the affair, there are yet some who believe that neither of them were connected with the deed..

Lordsburg had a social scandal last week, when Joe Cummings took trip to Silver City and was followed to that sanitarim by his partners wife, Mrs Pearson. The sequel to the affair would have been tragic had the de- serted husband been more practiced pistol shot. He in turn followed his erring wife, and while pleading with her to return to her home and children, the gay Lothario in the person of Cummings appeared on the scene when the outraged husband drew a deadly '45 and turned loose on the destroyer of his domestic happiness and fired three shots at him. Joe stood the fir ing as long as he could, and then, not seeing any other method of escape, took header through the closed win dow, carrying away in his exit the sash and everything pertaining there to. MT. Cummings, who appears to be lucky both in love and war, escaped without even scratch upon his fas- cinating person. Both the husband and the seducer now languish in the Silver City jail, while the festive mother of three children is in Lords burg trying to dispose of her house. hold effects with a view of escaping from the dust and heat of that re- ligiously named town.

NEW YORK, May i7.-OregOn Trans

sales of cash stock up 10 2 o'clock were
as much As & points higher than regular.
After , O'Clock the difference was as
much a. Is points. Outside of this, the
market was generally very strong, in
spite of bad news. The greatest advances
were in Consolidated Gas, Chicago and
Eastern Illinois preferred, Northern Pa
ciiic preferred and Oregon Navigation.
There was good rally from the low
prices made by II o'clock, which low
prices were brought about by the de-
cline in Union Pacific The last hour
was almost wholly given up TO watching
the excitement in Oregon Transcon-
tinental The market showed itself SUI
periof 20 very much bad news, and this
encourages the bulls a great deal. IL
shows that stocks are in hands able and
willing TO keep them. Bad news-aside
from any about the crops and money sit
uation-has lost its power in bringing
out long stocks. The market may be af-
fected adversely temporarily, by the cor
ner in oregon franscOntinentai, but the
general tendency Of prices can only be
upward. while the temper Of the people,
based on the crop outlook, continues as
il is. I'm the last half hour Oregon Trans
continental. under the rule, sold as high
as G4s; regular stock. 34t. The rest OF
the list was dull.
