MORE WATER.
A Ten Foot Rise for the New Reser'
yoir- Another Soaking Rain for
Valley and Mountains.

Fosters storm wave, prophesied to
strike this meridian on the 18th, got in
promptly on time yesterday afternoon,
and soaking rain was the result In
the city thirty-six hundredths of an inch
was recorded, and fully twice that much
fell in the valley south of the city,
while in the mountains the storm was
the heaviest in years, as indicated by the
flood that came down the Rio Santa Fe
and emptied itself into the new reservoir.
There were about 100000 gallons
of water in the reservoir when the
rain commenced. To-day there are near
100000 gallons on storage. The water
rose seven feet in one hour and in all
probably ten foot rise was added to the
reservoir supply; all that space back of
tho dam termed the fiat is under water
to-day for the first time and some little
water is flowing through the temporary
spill-way.
Some damage was done the open cut
leading from the old reservoir to the
cemented tunnel by the floods that came
down the several arroyos to the right of
the road, and the sides of the cut which
were only partially finished and were
almost perpendicular caved in, the debris
being washed into the new reservoir and
muddying the whole city water supply.
Much complaint as to this is heard to-day
among citizens, and general demand is
expressed that the water company, now
that it has been demonstrated that there
is no lack of water, shall get fresh move
on itself and so manage its affairs as to
avoid such annoyance to citizens in
fnture

FOR FIVE YEARS.
The supreme Court Affirms the Sen
tencc of Il. V. Eide. the Albu-
querque Wool Buyer.

In the territorial supreme court this
forenoon the opinion of the court was
announced affirming the verdict of the
lower court finding E. V. Edie, of Albu-
querque, guilty of rape and sentencing
him to five years in the penitentiary
This opinion was by Chief Justice O'Brlen,
Justice Freeman concurring; Justice Lee,
having been the trial judge not setting.
Justice Seeds presented dissenting
opinion in which Justice Fall concurred.
Edie was convicted of enticing young
girl, Bertha Strauss, into his room, giving
her wine and accomplishing her ruin. The
case came up on appeal to the last term
of the supreme court and the decision of
the lower court was affirmed, but defend
ant, through his attorney, N. B. Field,
secured a rehearing on the ground that
the jury had been tempered with. 1t ap-
pears that while the jury was out one Of
its members entered an adjoining room
and requested Deputy Sheriff Thos. S.
Hubbell to write out the form of verdict
for the use of the jury, such verdict to
"fnd the defendant guilty and fix his
punishment to five years Imprisonment"
or words to that effect, no other CONVEX
sation taking place between them. Edie's
attorney commended in re-arguing the
case that this act invalidated the verdict
and cited the U. S. supreme courts
recent decision in the case of Mattox,
charged with murder in the Indian ter
ritory, to sustain his point. The ma
jority opinion of the court holds that
there are few if any points of similarity
in the two cases; that two aftidayits made
by Deputy Sheriff Hubbell made appa-
rent the harmlessness of the comnunica-
ton between himself and the derelict
juror, and that the verdict must stand.
Justice Seeds, in dissenting, says he Is
satisfied with the result of the case upon
its merits, but, under the decision of the
U. s. supreme court, regards the jury
room incident as an error of grave
import and that the judgment of the
lower court should be reversed.
Edie will be brought up from his home
at Albuquerque tomorrow in charge of
an officer and committed to the peniten-
tiary.

PLACER GOLD.
A Rush of Men with Rockers to the
Gravel Beds in AnimaS Peak
District.

The name of the new postoffice is
Faulkner.
There is rush of miners into the Ami
mas Peaks district
Quarts mining on the Bonanza, Oppor-
tunity, Snake and Mamie Richmond mines
is also being pushed, and the outputs are
satisfactory.
The great tunnel through Animas Peak
is progressing night and day, and in the
past few days the new engine started the
Burleigh drill They are working three
eight hour shifts.
Gold mining is attracting general at
tention throughout the west at this time,
but no where are things assuming livelier
proportions than in the vicinity of Hills
boro.
A contract was let Friday last for new
fifty room frame hotel, and work began
at once. The house will be owned by a
stock company, who have already en-
gagged Mrs. Chris Martin, formerly of
Kingston, to run it.
Brandon Bros, of Kingston, will soon
have work commenced on large saloon
and liquor house. Their big freighting
outfit has been there for sometime haul.
ing dirt to the Percha river and sluicing
it. They are doing much better than
freighting.
The demand of the district at this time
is blacksmith and wagon shop, there
being mono nearer than Kingston OF
Hillsboro, twelve and fifteen miles away
There are besides the Brandon Bros.
teams, about fifteen wagons hauling dirt
and repairing is needed daily. Every.
body is in high spirits and money, OF
gold dust rather, is plentiful.
A new postofiice and mail line has beer
established. At present the mail comes
from the railroad terminus at Lake Val
| ley, but new route is soon to be made
down Animas river and Rio Grande to
Rincon, shortening the distance by wager
and railroad over 100 miles. At present
there is mail twice week, and as soon al
the new route is opened daily line o
coaches will be put on.
The late rains have given an abund
ance of water for placer mining, and il
Greenhorn gulch alone there are sixt!
rockers at work besides those who ar,
panning. This is the largest number o
men at work in any one gulch, but there
are many in Grayback, Red, Chance
Wicks and minor gulches. There are nov
800 men in the district, and each da,
brings new arrivals. The men averag,
more than miners wages, and sell thi
gold at some one of the new stores a
$18 an ounce.

Capital City News.

The following important communica-
ton explains itself:
TERRITORY OF New MEx1so,
Office of Solicitor General,
Santa Fe, N. NJ, Aug. 16, 1893. J
Hon. Amado Ghaves, Superintendent. ETC..
Santa Fe N. NJ.
Dear Sir-My attention was called to
an article in the New MEXICAN last night, in
which it was stated that hegeneral school
fund of Grant county had been largely
augmented by the new law, placing one
third of the gambling and other license
money in the county treasury for that
purpose, and desire to call your atten-
ton and through you the attention of
county treasurers and school officers in
the territory to the fact that the law re-
ferred to, being chapter So, session laws
of 1893, while approved on the 23d of
February, of that year, does not take eff
feet, and will not be in force, until
January l, 1895, as will be seen by section
of that act, 80 until that time arrives
the school moneys will be distributed by
the county treasurer as heretofore under
the decision of the supreme court to the
school district in which said license was
paid; that is to say, that chapter %, of
the session laws Of 1891, at section 35, is
not changed nor will it be until the LIST of
January, 1895.
Chapter 80 of the laws of 1898 does not
change it, as that only provides that the
license money shall be paid into the hands
of the county treasurer to be covered
into the school fund for the county; and
section 35 of the act of 1891 provides how
it shall be distributed. Iwrite this speci-
fically at this time for the reason that l
am satisfied my opinion on the sub ject,
of the Sd inst, is not sufficiently full and
might be misleading and I trust you will
give this opinion immediate publicity in
order that mistakes may be avoided.
Very truly yours,
EDWARD L. BARTLETT,
Solicitor General of New Mexico.

Straw Wanted Within.

The Brunswick News vouches for
the truth OF the following: A team
attached to wagon lvaded with
watermelons stood all day Wednes-
day at the corner by the Exchange
bank. The collar on one of the horses
was somewhat broken, and every
few moments the of horse would
bend his neck and extract a mouth
ful OF straw from the broken collar.
The horse fed on the straw. thus OBJ
tanned while his owners back was
turned selling watermelons, and by
the time he concluded to wend his
way homeward the "stuffing" was
eaten out of the collar,
much to the amusement of several
who watched the hungry
