A TRIUMPH,

A Ia " "4 IA
The high license act, as amended by
the council, was promptly concurred in
by the house of representatives yesterday
afternoon, and the measure now requires
only the governors signature to become
law. That the bill will receive executive
approval goes without saying, and in con-
graduating the people Of New Mexico
over this long step to the front, we may
be permitted to indulge in bit of pardon
able pride i'll referring to the part this
journal has taken in bringing about this
genuine reform. More than two years
ago the New MEXICAN began the agitation
OF the question of high license, and since
that time 1t has constantly hammered
away at the subject, leading the
growing sentiment that its tell.
ing blows had aroused. As q
result Of the proper feeling thus aroused
by the New MEXICAN, Senator Mills Of
Tered a high license measure early in the
present session, and very probably before
this greets the public that measure will
have become law. 1t is not all In all
what we have striven for, but under all
circumstances it is quite good enough
upon which to make start. 1t viii
drive the "dive" out of existence it will
lessen crime, and it will stimulate homes,

the result, and We tender the people o.

the territory's power to collect taxes from

the territory's power to collect taxes from
the several national banks. Unless this
is done there exists no reasonable doubt
that the nati' nal ban IS will make no tax
returns for the coming years, and that
they will not pay any taxes. as under the
present statute and II decision just rem
dered the territory can not compel them
to pay taxes, unless they make and file
voluntarily the regular tax returns with
the assessor.
Solicitor General Bartlett is certainly
entitled to the thanks Of the people OF
New Mexico for bringing this case to a
successful issus and for calling attention
to it; now let the legislature do its duty
and amend the revenue law in the inter
ests of the people.

THE house committee to investigate the

rants, issued by the territory of New
Mexico In accordance with an act OF q
Democratic legislature passed in 1867,
wants to 90 into the examination Of the
accounts upon which these warrants are
issued that is all right, and the people as
q whole can have no objection thereto;
but as It will take at least six
months Of steady and hard work
by competent expert to make
this investigation, what is the commit.
tee going to do about it? And how is
the committee going to go at it? There
is no objection, as far as the New MExI-
CAN knows to the Investigation of these
warrants and the accounts connected
with them, but how is this to be accom-.
plisbed That is the question.

TAXING THE NATIONAL BANKS IN NEW
MEXICO,

TAXING THE NATIONAL BANKS IN NEW
MEXICO.
The case Of the two National banks in
Albuquerque versus Jose L. Perea, sheriff
and collector ct al, was decided by the
supreme court OF the territory on yester-
day in an opinion, handed down by Chief
Justice OBrien and Loncurred in by the
entire bench. The court affirmed the
decision Of the court below, made by
Judge Lee, that in this case presented the
territory had right to collect taxes from
the banks in question according to the
assessment books; but the decision
plainly intimates, that had not the banks
made the regular tax returns as they did,
and had they not subjected themselves
in the beginning voluntarily to the tax
ing authorities, the territory under its
present revenue laws, would be powerless
to compel the Albuquerque National
banks, and, for that matter, any of the
national banks in the territory to
bear their just share of the burdens OF
taxation.
This is q most important matter for the
consideration OF the present legislative
assembly; II these bank corporations,
which are the best ablo to pay taxes of
any tax payers Of this territory, can not
be reached under the present law, the
latter should be speedily amended, so as
to cover the cases OF these rich and money
making corporations, as has been done in
Ohio, Missouri, Pennsylvania, and in.
deed everywhere, where national hanks
do business such an amendment of the
present statute or the passage Of a new
revenue law is imperatively demanded.
There are to-day ten national hanks in
New Mexico and unless law is passed
providing for the taxation Of the property
of these banks, the territory will lose the
taxes on at least 100000. In
this connection it may be stated,
that the two banks in this
city, the First National Of Santa Fe and
the Second National OF New Mexico,
have never taken advantage of the In
sufficiency OF the statute, but the other
banks, namely, those in Albuquerque and
Las Vegas, have endeavored so to do in
this very case. Hence prompt and proper
action to protect the interests Of the peo-
pie can not DO taken any too soon.
The territory was represented by So
licitor General Bartlett and the banks by
W. B. Childers, of Albuquerque; Mr..
Bartlett guarded the territory's interests
well, faithfully and successfully in the
case and secured q decision which gains
for the territory several years taxes from
the banks in question and calls forclble
attention besides to the absolute necessity
of the proper kind Of law in the pre-
misses.
In his annual report to the governor
Solicitor General Bartlett also called at.
tention to this matter and urged prope,
and speedy action by the legislature so as
to preclude any possibility Of any doubt Of

Man Calling Himself Jacob Brown Con-
fesses to the Murder for which One
Gray is Serving a Life Sentence in the
Chester Nll.) Penitentiary.
MINNEAPoLIs, Mimi, Sept. Coon
science has finally forced Jacob Brown
to confess dire deed that he did eight
long years ago. Since 1888 Brown has
been fleeing from his crime, but it has
pursued him the length and breadth of
the continent At last. in Minneapolis,
he has confessed to Superintendent of
Police Henderson his crime. There is
one man whose heart will give bound
of Joy when he hears the confession.
He is Convict Gray, 'lifer" in the
penitentiary at Chester, Ill. Gray has
been thought the murderer instead Of
Brown. He was convicted at
Salem, Ill. Browns confession
will set him free, both from prison and
from disgrace. Browns story was so
strange a tale that the chief at first set
him down as crank. The man was SO
earnest, however, that the chief ordered
him locked up and sent telegram to
Centralia. Ill, where the murder was
done. This morning the answer came
from the sheriff: Hold the man; letter
coming. Will send for him.
The story of the murder is strange
one. Brown, who was tramping, went
into a box car to sleep He stumbled
over a man in the dark and fight en-
sued. Brown hit his assailant a death
blow with coupling-pin and fled. Not
long after Gray, another tramp,
came along and went to sleep
in the same car, not knowing
that he had a dead man for a compan-
ion. The next morning when he arose
he found that his arm had lain in a pool
of blood. He tore off the bloody sleeve
and fed. That sleeve caused his ar
rest, conviction and sentence. He does
not even know who the real murderer
was. Brown claims to come from a
well-to-do southern family, but will
not give his real name.

A YELLOW JACKETS STING
Responsible for an Accident that Nearly
Cost Two Lives.

Cost Two Lives.
WASHINGTON. Sept 25.-Prof. A. X.
Spence, of the faculty of the Fisk uni
versity, Nashville, Tenn. with his wife,
daughter and R. c. Edmondson, of the
war department., had most miraculous
escape from death while driving on the
Fort Myer road. Descending the steep
military road from Fort Myer, the
horse was stung by a yellow jacket.
The animal plunged down the road
and over a bridge, carrying
vehicle and passengers with it, a
distance of twenty feet into the water.
Prof. and Mrs. Spence were pinioned
under the vehicle until extricated by
Miss Spence and Mr.. Edmonson, who
escaped with slight injuries. The in
jured parties were brought to the
Emergency hospital. The bones of
Prof. Spence's face were broken, his
shoulder-bone crushed, skull slightly
fractured and his right eye almost torn
out. Owing to the feeble condition Of
Prof. Spence his physicians are unable
to state whether his injuries will prove
fatal. Mrs. Spence's injuries, while not
fatal, are very painful

market improves, and the demand Tor TIN
plates is especially increased; coal Is ouii-
At Cleveland good trade Is reported IN dry
goods hardware and groceries, though
clothing and boots and shoes are dull. Ae
Detroit trade improves, with good manu-
featuring demand for iron, and FUNDS gong
into the country for wheat. At Cincinnati
trade is fairly active. with the whisky bust.
ness in good condition. At Chicago the
week was one of the largest on record in.
cattle receipts. which were over 3d. 900 head,
and while some increase appears IN nour,
oats and corn, dressed beer. hides ana
wool. receipts of wheat ana rye were
nine times last years, though in
barley, cured meats, lard, cheese
and butter there was some decrease. Sales
of dry goods, clothing and shoes exceed
last years. AT Milwaukee general business
Is good At Minneapolis trade is especially
rels against loo, 900 last year, and wheat re-
ceipts $40. 600 against 100000, while lumber
is strong and higher prices contemplated.
At St Paul trade Is very active, and con-
fidence strong. At Kansas City trade stead.
ily improves: at Louisville great improve
ment is noted with confidence fully re-
stored and at Memphis increased activity is
seen in every line, though business IS yet
below the normal. Improvement is seen at
Galveston at New Orleans, where the cot
ton Is slightly advanced and rice is steady,
and at Savannah, where cotton receipts are
heavy. Reports to money MARK
cts are generally favorable. Money
Is easier at Boston and Philadel-
phfa; in fair supply at Cleveland
and Cincinna tt. and for mercantile needs at
Chicago and milwaukee,, easier at Kansas
City, Louisville and Savannah, but very
active at New Orleans. Collections are
fairly good almost everywhere. The great
industries are doing well. There is dis.
tinctly better demand for iron without adj
vance in price. Much inquiry is seen for
rails, 70, 900 tons being sold here. stronger
demand for bar, moderate activity in plate,
and structural mills fairly employed. Cop
per is stronger on large consumption, dis
tribution of tin is larger and lead is
stronger Steady sales of wool give PROOF
of consumption equal to last years.
