PLANS FOR THE PARK .

How spencer square is LikeIy to be
Reautified - Transformed Into
Place of Pride and Pleasurc-A N eet-
ing at Commissi0ner Jackson's
House.
Mr.. William Jackson. commissioner of
Spencer square, INVITED Mayor McCon>
ochie and the members of the incoming
and retiring city council. President Hass,
of the Citizens Improvement associs-
ton, and DR.. W. A. Paul ana r. Cramp.
ton, OF the improvement association park
committee, together with representatives
of the local press to his home, S24
Twentieth street last evening, with a
view of giving all interested an oppor>
tunity TO examine his plans for the per-
manent Improvement and beautifying of
Spencer square. The matter is enc TO
| which MIR. Jackson has devoted much
time and pains, and in which he has
great pride. Mr. Jackson had a COM
prehensiye diagram or drawing made,
celebrating his IDEAS, and which he was
anxious should be examined in detail
and understood before 1t is submitted to
the council for final approval, and it was
gratifying TO note with what enthusiasm
the mayor and all others present gave
their endorsement to the plan which pro-
vides for diagonal walks from each of the
four corners. and nine feet in width to be
constructed either of Argillo or Utica tile
or of brick on edge corresponding with
the outer walks, to forty foot circle in
the centre with bed and curbing for a
fountain in the northern triangle inclosed
in five foot walk, four foot flower beds
about the fountain, while the band stand
Is to be correspondingly situated on the
southern angle with the exception that
no flower beds or encircling walk is con-
| templsted on that side. On the eastern
and western border of the forty foot cir.
Gle 1t is proposed to place flower beds on
the outerside, while there are to be
eight benches or settees on the inner side,
as also at intervals along the walks lead>
ing to the street and avenue intersections
at the corners of the square. The esti-
mated cost of such improvements is
placed at $4,000
1t was the impression of the mayor and
every councilman present that the plans as
contemplated and presented by Mr.. Jack
son should be carried out entirely, but
as matter of course there was q dispos-
ition manifested not to approve of them
in anything of the nature of an official
sense until the new council shall organ
ize, when without doubt provision will be
made for carrying forward of the work 10
detail. The popular suggestion advanced
last night though was that the grading
already under way should be pushed TO
completion and that sodding and seeding
continue without delay and such opera,
tions as are really essential be allowed 10
proceed under Mr.. Jackson's supervision,
leaving the ornamental features to the
discretion Of the. incoming council, by
whom they will assuredly receive the en-
couragement they should. and which the
interests of the business portion of the
city as well as hearty pubic pride de-
mands In common with paved streets and
other characteristics of a city reiuvenated
and abreast with the progressive march

THE HEADQUARTERS TRANSFER,
September the Appointed Time-SOmt
Changes Directed to Take Place
at Fort Marcy.

The general order issued by the secre-
tary of war regarding department head
quarters directs that the transfer from
Los Angeles to Santa Fe take place Sep
TENDER l. To-day an order came to hand
directing that the garrison at Fort
Marcy be reduced under orders recently
issued, that is, that company I, 10th in
fantry, which is stationed hero be con-
solidated with other companies in the
district in accordance with the late order
reducing all ] and K companies of in
fantry to Skeleton" organizations. The
effect of this order is to enlarge company
D at Fort Marcy, to which Capt. Duggan,
of company L, will undoubtedly be as
signed, as no officers attached to company
D are now here.
On the whole, everything at present
would seem to indicate that the regiment
al headquarters and band of the 10th in
fantry and company D will remain here,
also that Major Summerhayes will remain,
as he ranks the assistant quartermaster,
Capt. True, now at Los Angeles. In
word, Santa Fe will keep all she has at
present and will get the department
headquarters besides. An order directing
Gen. McCook and Major Kimball to pro-
coed to Santa Fe is daily expected.

Kingston comment: The mines of this
district continue to produce bountifully,
and the outlook for the year 1890 is very
encouraging. The Lady Franklin is work
ing full force OF men and is doing the
most extensive development OF any mine
in New Mexico. Nearly all the famous
producers are being worked. The U. s.
has now become steady producer and is
Oh sound basis. The Iron Clad is push
ing their long tunnel as rapidly as posi-
BILE, and is within striking distance of the
contact. The Gypsey is working twelve
men and shipped twenty tons OF high
grade ore the last of the week The Tenn
plar is being worked under the lease sys-
tenn with satisfactory results to all con-
cerned. The new discovery on the Cum
berland holds its own, and the paystreak
of eighteen inches is as rich as ever with
indications of growing wider. The ship
ment notice last week has been made,
and the returns justified all we said last
week in regard to this great property.
The Charm is being worked by Brochu IL
Hill, and the indications are Of the most
favorable character. The general tone OF
the entire district is upward.

The SHERIFF INDICTED.
Serious Charges Against Francisco Cha
yez -Immediat Trial Ordered
Duran Found Guilty.

The territorial grand jury yesterday
brought in number of indictments
charging various offenses against several
persons, and, among the number, was an
indictment against Frank Chavez, sheriff
of Santa Fe county, charging that officer
with having committed an assault with
deadly weapon upon Francisco Con
zales Borrego, while the latter was con-
fined in the county jail on the charge of
killing Sylvestre Gallegos.
The warrant for the arrest OF the sheriff
was directed to Perfecto Gonzales, one OF
the bailiffs of the court and a deputy
sheriff. The instrument was taken by
Gonzales and served upon Sheriff Cha
yes last evening. This morning the sher-
if, in the custody of Gonzales, was
brought into court and arranged, pleading
not guilty. The court in receiving the
plea, took occasion to refer to the gravity
Of the charge and suggested that owing to
the intimacy of the sheriff's office with
the duties of the court it would be advis-
able to have the case come to a hearing
Immediately. The district attorney stated
that the prosecution would be prepared to
take up the case tomorrow morning and
it was so ordered by the court.
For the past four days the case OF Dom
acano Duran, charged with the violation
of the Edmu nds act, has been on trial in
the I. $. court. He had been living with
Rosalia Martinez de Herbert. Duran
was very ably and persistenly defended
by Mr.. John H. knaebel, but the defence
was met on every point by L. S. Attor-
ney Fiske, who was successful, and the
jury brought in a verdict of guilty. In
this connection it is well to state that the
grand jury is now investigating several
cases of violation of the Edmunds act and
some indictments may be announced any
| day.
U. S. vs.. Cresantos Vigil, violation o.
election laws, motion to quash the indict
ment granted.
L. S. vs.. VIM. Breeder, suit to ejec
defendant from the old adobe palace, was
argued, and taken under advsement by
the court.

This evening, at Gen. Bartletts office,
a special meeting OF the Board OF Trade
will be held for the purpose OF arranging
for the reception OF Gen. McCook, the
new department commander, and also to
elect new officers to serve the board for
the ensuing year. All members are urged

Judge Thornton, attorney for the Cash
Entry-Central company Mr.. Weber, OF
Denver; Gen. Nelly and Col. Lamison,
attorney for the Brice-Thomas railroad in
terests, left this morning on a trip OF in
spection to the Cash Entry camp. This
trip is full of excellent probabilities for the
capital city.
A dispatch to Capt. John Gray from
Cerrillos came at noon from Mrs. McCor-
mack stating that her residence and three
others were burned this forenoon and the
fire is still in progress. 1t is on the north
side of the railroad track, near the busl-
ness houses of W. II. Nesbiut and l.. d.
Sugar. No later particulars can be learned
up to the hour OF going to press.
Joseph Z. Baker, of st. Louis, OF the
firm of Sherman Sons 4 Bakers, general
agents of the Mutual Life Insurance
company advises the firm OF Paul Wun-
schmann & Co., that he is at Las Vegas
hot springs enroute with his family to
Santa Fe. This is the fourth summer
visit of this pleasant family. They VIII
remain at the Palace several weeks.
The district quartermaster, Major sum
merhayes, yesterday paid oil the civil
employees III his office and extra duty
clerks about Fort Marcy, disbursing some
$500, When dozen new officers and
their thirty or forty clerks are stationed
here next month pay days like this will
be watched. Major Summerhayes is also
in receipt OF invoices for dozen more
fine Missouri mules, making twenty -four
in the service at Fort Marcy.
1t is said that south side couple,
uncle and niece, foreigners, who are I'M
familiar with the laws and customs Of
this country, have planned to be married
shortly. 1t may save these people and
their friends some trouble to know that
such marriages constitute crime both in
the eyes of the U. S. and the territorial
law. Before any action is taken it may
be well for them, and the ministers also,
to peruse the Edmunds law and also Sec
tons 992, 993 and 994 of the Compiled
Laws of New Mexico.
Some slight inaccuracies occurred in
the report of the proceedings of the
equalization board in yesterdays New
MEXICAN. The action as to appeal for
San Miguel county was as follows: The
increase in the assessment of the A, 7.
& S. F. company made by the commits
sioners at their August meeting was dis
allowed, as no increase can be made after
the June meeting. The assessment of L. B.
Prince by the county commissioners was
81 ,45O, not $l2 800 as stated, and the ter
rtorial board made it $1,000.

The CatrOn Block.

Owing to the new turn Santa FEES at
fairs have taken, some changes were yes
terday made in the original plans for the
Catron block. 1t has been decided to en-
large the basement at the east side and
give it depth of nine feet at the clea,
with frontage of thirty-six feet and am
pie doors and windows, so that it may be
utilized for bath room and barber shop
purposes, stone steps leading down from
the pavement thereto. 1t is just possible
that, should the Weber four-story block
go up at once, the plans for the Catron
block will be further changed and en-
larged upon.
Speaking OF stone, suggests the fact that
the finest of building stone is being re.
ceived by Contractor Berardinelli from
Monero for this structure. 1t comes in
mammoth blocks, some OF them three feet
in.width and thickness land twelve feet
in length. These blocks are the admira-
ton Of many strangers who come and go
on the plaza.
