EUROPE WANTS IT.
The FURRY in Wheat Easily Accounted
For--Foreign Gold will Flow Into
the United States.

CHICAGO, Ill, Aug l5.-One prominent
wheat broker said this morning: i don't
pretend 10 predict what the future will
bring forth. There are only 100000
bushels in store here. but the past few days
dealings have spread over three lines from
1000, eco to 5000. 0OG Big selling is being
done by foreign representatives at New
York, and they appear TO be ready to take
every bushel that is offered.
Yes, il would look as if the bulls were
doing it all, but l can tell YOU very few
bears are standing out and the bulls are
fooled about as much as the bears l think
this furry is dueientirely 20 the condition
of affairs abroad. However, ten days ago
we laughed at our New York agent, who
sent US kilograms insiuuating as much.
The opinion has been wonderfully verified "

A PORTABLE WATER FILTER.

one, which is also convenient for variety
Of uses, is described by Popular Science
News as follows:
For filtering ordinary hydrant water it
is immersed in q vessel containing the
water, and enough suction made on the
tube TO make siphon action, and, b. al
lowing the vessel TO remain under the
hydrant, an unlimited supply can be OBJ

tightly packed around the glass tube,
which rests on the bottom of the bottle.

Hon. Frank A. Hubbell, member of
the last legislative assembly from Bernal-
lilo county, was shot bya Socorro county
ranchman named s. NJ. Carter on satur
day. at Rancho de Atrisco. Last week
Carter stopped at Pajarito and attempted
to trade shotgun to Frank A. Hubbell.
One of the hammers to the gun was out
of order, and in attempting to lower it
the piece was discharged. The shot all
took effect in the flank of valuable mare
belonging to Mr.. Hubbell, and necessi-
tated the animal being killed. Mr.. Hub
bell came to Atrisco and there attached
the horse and buggy belonging to the
ranchman.
Carter instituted legal proceedings to
recover his property, but got impatient at
the laws delays and made an attack upon
Mr.. Hubbell for which he was arrested
and bound over in the sum OF $500. Later
he got possession of his shot gun and
slipping charge OF No. 2 buckshot into
it walked out and fired upon Hubbell.
Two of the shot took effect. One caused
a flesh wound, and the other struck rib
and glanced of. Hubbell will recover.
Carter is in jail at Albuquerque.

THE ONE THING NEEDED.
A Meeting of Delegates Proposed for
Agitating the Extension of the
Denver 4 Rio Grande
Road.

Santa Fe is making substantial progress
these days, All of her internal affairs
show an activity unprecedented. The
many new buildings in course of con-
struction and contemplated the organize
ton of the new water company for the
irrigation of thousands of acres of valley
lands; the assurance of bountiful har-
vests; the excellent showing the fruit and
garden truck producers have made, and
the money coming from adjacent towns
and camps in return for extensive ship
ments them; the unparalleled prosperity
prevailing among the mines OF Santa Fe
county; the organization of the new city
government and the certainty of new
era in the way of public improvements in
the city; the activity in the real estate
market; the plating of new city additions
all these things combine to give every
body the utmost confidence IN Santa Fes
future and the coming fall promises grand
results.
There is just one more thing needed to
bring the capital city veritable boom this
fall, and this is the extension of the Den
yer x Rio Grande railroad south into the
mining districts of Cerrillos, Dolores, Col
den and San Pedro and thence on to AL
buquerque and via Abo pass and White
Oaks to Ell Paso. That this extension is
to be built eventually there is no sort of
doubt; but it may be delayed another
year unless the citizens here Strike while
the iron is hot and unite their interests
aud exert their efforts with Denver and
Albuquerque to bring about immediate
action. The time for such action
has come. If it should turn out
that Ell Paso and White Oaks should pre-
fer to pin their faith to the far-away Trim
idad and Las Vegas railway scheme, then
Denver, Pueblo, Alamoss, Santa Fe, Ger
rillos, San Pedro and Albuquerque must
themselves get together and discuss the
D. 4 X. q. extension southwark. They
might very properly hold q railroad con-
yention of their own-not in opposition
to Ell Paso's pet project, but to promote
first their own interests and incidentally
the interests of Ell Paso and White Oaks
This convention might very properly b.
held at Alamosa or Santa Fe, or at Albu-
querque, possibly at the latter point would
be preferable and during the territorial
fair would be the most suspicious time.
In this connection the Albuquerque Citi-
says:
We can afford to endorse all the pager
railroads that the delegates from any sec
ton of the country want to bring forward.
but we can't afford to have a practical
and practicable enterprise like the extern
sion of the Denver & Rio Grande ignored
for the purpose of booming chimerical
scheme in favor of some imaginary road.
That's the correct position for us to take,
and that is the position which Denver has
already taken. We want railroads from
Colorado into New Mexico; we want all
We can get, and we want to give our first
attention to those roads that we can get
the easiest and the soonest, because their
influence upon the business interests OF
the territory will help US to get others.
