down and all his household goods were
consumed with il. The family had all
gone to church. 1t Is not known how the
fire originated. Your correspondent has
not heard whether or not either of the

clothes that they were wearing at the time
destroyed. They have the sincere sympa-
thies Of their neighbors in their sad mis-
fortune.
BAD WEATHER AND GRIP.
We have had some sudden changes of
weather lately. Some days last week were
mild and spring-like, but the latter part Of
the week was really winterish. II is now
duite cold. with the ground frozen. Many
of our people have been laid up with the
grip, but all have either recovered or are
recovering from its effects. There have
been no deaths from that disease in our
neighborhood.

Between 0 and 10 o'clock Sunday
morning the second section of the
west bound freight encountered an
open switch at Qtirino canon, about
43 miles west of Gallup, and went
crashing over the embankment to
the bed of the Rio Puerco. The
switch leads to a rock spur, and was
adjusted to the main line when the
first section of the train passed
through, fifteen minutes previously.
The wrecked train was running on
the schedule time of passenger train
No. 3, which has given color to the
supposltion that train robbers threw
the switch. Neil Evans, the engi-
neer was seriously and probably fa-
tally injured. The fireman and some
of the crew were badly hurt. 1t
was thought some Navajo Indians
might have thrown the switch. 1t
is reported that a man has been ar
rested at Navajo Springs on suspicion
of being the guilty person.

AFFAIRS m MORA.

Hon. A. J.. Branch arrived from
Mora last night. He said the snow
had been thirty-nine inches deep at
his home and about three feet deep
on the level, but that is now melting
rapidly and will be gone, as the
streams are running full. In places,
however, are drifts three to seven
feet deep. From Las Vegas to Mora,
thirty miles, freighters usually re-
ceive twenty cents per hundred for
hauling, but now they can not be in
duced to make the trip for 81 per
hundred. AS yet stock has suffered
but little, except on the prairie south
of Wagon Mound. The good hay
crop of last year is helping the stock
men out; the La Cueva ranch feeds
thirteen and half tons of alfalfa
daily. Everybody looks for an early,
warm spring, in which event the
coming year will prove very pros
porous one for farmer and stockmen.

ordered conveyance to take them

WAR FROM REvlyALs.
An Iowa Sheriff Asks for Aid
From Militia.

From Militia.
Dies MONIES, To-, March 4.-Goy.
Boics late this afternoon received dis
patch from Corning stating that serious
trouble had broken out among
citizens there and the sheriff asked
authority to call out company OF Iowa
national guards at Villisca to help keep
the peace. Corning is the county seat
of Adams county. aud it has been i'm
possible to obtain any information in
regard to the disturbance. Adams
county men about the state house
think the trouble is of religious ma
ture. A disturbance in the Free MethO-
dist church has been brewing for some
time, the trouble arising. it is stated,
out of a series of revival meetings. ~
A report received at the Register office
that the mob made but little demonstra-
ton tonight. 1t is hard to get any def
mite information about the matter, A
religious revival of unusual intensity
has been going GU for sew
eral weeks in Corning. The
town has been thoroughly excited
for several days. the rOugher and free
thinking elements have opposed the re-
Yival and threatened the leaders with
mob violence on account of the effect
they were having on people. some of
whom have shown symptoms of relig-
ious insanity. The revivalists declare
1t the work of God and have persisted.
For several nights the rougns have
been surrounding the church and at
tempting to break up the meetings. The
report that the governor had been APP
pealed to for authority to call out militia
has been alternately asserted and denied.
Gov, Boies went to Fort Madison this
afternoon. Before going he was in
foImed of the disturbance and asked
for further information by telegraph.
but found local authorities. including
sheriff. did not want militia and SO
nothing was done. -

THEY FANCY BENNY.
New York Leaders May Plug for
Harrison,

New YORK, March "A Republican
morning paper states that the leaders Of
the Republican party of this state held
a very important conference at the Fifth
Avenue hotel in this city last evening.
1t lasted from until nearly midnight,
and was devoted strictly to discussion
as to the best means of achieving success
in the coming elections. Secretary
Tracy and Senator HlScock came over
from Washington late, and after dinner
they adjourned to a parlor, where
Chauncey NJ. Depew, j. Sloat Fassett,
Cornelius n. Bliss, State Senator Irwin.
Collector Hendricks, Postmaster Van
Colt. William Brookfeld, ex-senator
Platt and several other well known
leaders of the party joined them.
The discussion was informal. A ma
iority of the conference believed that
the denomination of President Harrison
was probable. although number of ex-
pressions favorable to other candidates
were made. The names of delegates at
large to the convention was considered,
but nothing like slate was suggested.
Mr.. Depew was not, however, eager to
90 as delegate at large as Harrison
leader. One of the most prominent Re-
publicanS leaders present personally adj
yocates the nomination of Secretary
Rusk, whose gallant war service would
fully represent the rugged honesty of
Western Republicanism. If Mr.. Morton
retlres, Secretary Tracy is regarded as
one of the strongest candidates for vice
president. After the conference was
over. one of the leaders said: You
know that until a month ago | was i'll
favor of Blaine as a candidate. We can
win with any good candidate, but |
think Harrison is the man."

ie WASHINGTON, March 3.-There was
Ian interesting listle episode in the
rooms of the secretary of the senate this
afternoon. After the vote on the Idaho
case had been taken, Senator Hill
strolled into the room and remarked
that, if convenient, he would like to
draw a little money. The disbursing
officer of the senate. Gen. Arson B. Me
Cook, draws monthly from the treasury
sufficient sum to pay the salaries of
members, and with the beginning of
every session draws enough to pay their.
mileage and stationery allowances.
Senator HIPS request was promptly re-
sponded to by Secretary McCook's dis
bursting clerk, who placed before him
vouchers for an amount aggregating
about $1,000, and asked him to sign
them.
"Oh, no." said the senator. 81 want
voucher for my salary from the day |
was sworn in, the 18th of January, 1892,
up to the end of February. This is your
usual payday. is it not-the third OF the
month";"
The clerk said it was, but went on to
remark that they had certain amount
standing on their books to the credit of
the New York senator, and to pay out
only portion of that amount would
cause confusion both to the senate
bo0kkeepers and those of the treasury
department. With some brusaueness OF
manner Mr.. Hill said that was none of
his business; they must keep their
books to suit themselves. He wished to
draw his salary for the actual time he
had served in the senate and not one
cent more. After some parleying the
clerk made out a voucher for $685.. 90,
and this Mr.. Hill signed and took
check for that amount in full payment
of all his claims upon the senate salary
and mileage fund up to date. The bal
ance left undrawn was 81 ,221,. which
will be covered back into the treasury.
