TIME FOR ACTION.
Better Stage Facilities Must Be Pro-
yided to Reach COchlti-A Busi-
ness Suggestion.

The new direct stage road from Santa
Fe to Cochiti mining district, to bring
that promising territory within twenty
five miles of this city, will be finished by
Monday next at fartherest. Parties who
drove over the road yesterday as far as
the river and back declare it q first-class
piece of work and delightful drive from
start to finish.
To-day Supt. Helm, Of the Santa Fe
Southern road, received from the D. & R.
G.officials a query as to when the new
road would be ready for business and what
Improvements had been made in stage
facilities between Santa Fe aud Allerton.
Mr.. Helm can not answer the latter part
of this query very satisfactorily; and il IL
therefore suggested that the Board of
Trade take hold of the matter at once and
make some positive arrangement toward
offering bonus to parties who will pro-
vide tirst.class coaches and good equip
ment to make daily trips between here
and the camps. It Is s7thought that small
bonus will meet the emergency, and that
after the first week or so the cooperation
of the D. 4 R. G. people will secure suffi-
cient business to Justify the dropping of
the bonus altogether. II Santa Fe par
ties do not care to take hold Of the stage
line project, and make it all it should be,
it il said that there are several southern
Colorado parties who will do SO. The
Board Of Trade should act promptly on
this matter.

UNION PACIFIC EMPLOYEES.
Hearing Before the u. n. COurt-As
surance that the Men will Abide
by Decision Of the Court

Omaha, March 31.-The employees had
turn at the federal court to-day, when
the Union Pacific wage hearing was re-
sumed before Judges Caldwell and Riner.
George w. Vroman, of North Platte,
Neb, chairman Of the general grievance
committee Of the Union Pacific system
and also chairman of the brotherhood of
engineers, was called to the stand, and his
examination consumed all the time of the
court until the hour of adjournment over
Sunday. Vroman endeavored to show
the justice of the schedules in force, and
the injustice Of the rules proposed by the
receivers.
just before the adjournment Judge
Caldwell asked the witness if he could
guarantee that the organizations he rep
resented would abide by the decision of
the court whatever it might be regarding
both rules and schedule Of wages, or
would there be strike if the findings of
the court did not suit the men. Vroman
declared positively his organization
would abide by the courts decision an3
under no consideration will there be
strike. This concluded the proceedings
for the day,

ESCAPE OF A TRUSTY.
Two Officers and the Penitentiary
Blood Hounds OH the Trail.

Freeman Richardson, serving term
in'the penitentiary for counterfeiting,
escaped from custody yesterday after
noon.
Richardson has been uniformly we'll be-
haved since his incarceration, and for
the past three months has been classed
as trusty and employed as teamster.
Supt. Bergman trusted him so implicitly
that he often sent him to the city with
small sums of money to make purchases
and the man always proved faithful.
Yesterday Richardson and another
trusty named Pablo Vigil were engaged
in hauling sand from the arroyo near the
narrow gauge depot. Soon after they
started out after dinner, near the
broad gauge depot they met an ex-con-
vict named W. B. Fisher, who was dis
charged that morning. Fisher jumped
on the wagon, took a scat between the
two convicts and went with them to the
arroyo. After the wagon was loaded
Fischer came to town and the others
drove to the penitentiary.
Soon after the TRUSTEES started for
another load. When they reached the
arroyo Fisher was there and Richardson
made the remark that the sand was better
further on.
Thereapon they drove to the top of the
mesa and started off on the road leading
north at rapid rate. Trusty Vigil
claims he protested, but was compelled
to go along at the muzzle of Fishers
pistol.
After travelling about six miles Fisher
and Richardson jumped off the wagon
and told Vigil to return home slowly.
The latter reached the penitentiary about
$50 in the evening and gave the alarm.
Supt. Bergman at once sent two officers
and the dogs on the trail, but has since
heard nothing from them. He has also
sworn out warrant for the arrest of
Fisher for aiding prisoner to escape.

BILE scheme to cloud Santa Fe titles, has
so far taken no measures to force its
creature to do his duty.
The gravity of the situation will be
understood when it is stated that these
so-called interior grants include nearly
all the public buildings, such as churches,
schools, the capitol, the broad gauge
depot, and the penitentiary, in the city;
that they have been formally filed in the
land court for confirmation; and that
separate DEGREES and patents are seri-
ously asked in each instance.
No one believes that the grants de-
scribed are valid; their obvious purpose
is to stir up litigation and extort money
from the people; but unless they are
promptly met and overthrown they
threaten Santa Fe with world of trouble.
The present Republican city administra-
tion is clearly responsible for the almost
criminal manner IN which the interests of
the public have been neglected in this
important matter, and, after heartily ap-
proving the acts of this administration,
the Republican convention last night
nominated candidates who are under pre-
cisely the same influences that have
governed their party in the past. The
people will see TO it that they are not
elected.

SENTENCED TO HANG.
Barrett, the Seven Rivers Murderer,
on Trial in Lincoln County.

In the Lincoln county district court,
Judge Freeman presiding, James Barrett
has been found guilty of murder in the
first degree. Barrett was charged with the
murder of John Holohan and James
Barnes, Monday morning, July "a, at Seven
Rivers
The men were employed at the Pecos
company's reservoir works, and in
crazy drunken fit Barrett shot these men
while they we're asleep in tent. The
case went to Lincoln county on change
of venue. The defense rested it's whole
case on the plea of insanity of the ac-
cused, which District Attorney Barber
had no difficulty in breaking down. Judge
Freeman sentenced Barrett to be hanged
by Sheriff Kemp at Eddy on April 81.

Force q General Strike.

Pittsburg, March 31.-The coal miners
of the Clearaeld region are preparing to
make movement like Coxey's to induce
the miners of competing regions to join
them in their demand or strike for higher
wages. They propose to march in body
across the state to Maryland, and camp in
the Cumberland and Georges creek re-
gions until they succeed in inducing the
miners there to join them. A meeting is
being held at Houtsdale to-day, and if
the miners of the adjoining districts in
dictate that they will be with the Houts-
dale men in their demand there will be a
general strike declared.

TITLES THREATENED.
Failure of Republicans to Press Con-
tirmatiOn OF Santa Fe Grant
Gross Neglect-Corrupt ;4
Collision Charged. 4

The ringing resolutions Of the Demo.
cratic city convention we're printed in
these columns yesterday. Strong and
timely emphasis was placed upon the
grossly negligent and incompetent man.
ner in which the present Republican city
administration has presented, or rather
failed to present and push, the Santa Fe
grant for confirmation, and the resolu-
tions pointedly charge this negligence to
corrupt conspiracy in the interest Of
certain private grant claimants. The
facts fully sustain the charge.
About twenty years ago the Villa de
Santa Fe grant was presented to the sur
veyor general of New Mexico and by that
official it was duly approved and ordered
surveyed. As the boundaries were then
established, this grant comprised four
square leagues of land, or one league each
way from the monument in the plaza. It
conformed In all respects to the Spanish
law governing community grants.
The approval of the surveyor general
was accepted as final until the creation Of
the us. court of private land claims.
Then the Republican county commits
sioners took charge Of the grant, pre-
sented it to the court for confirmation,
and it was rather abruptly thrown out on
the ground that the commissioners had no
right to institute the proceedings.
The city was next substituted for the
county as plaintiff, and Mr.. j. P. Victory,
then city attorney, presented nm original
petition for the confirmation of the grant.
A Republican city attorney was soon
after elected in the person Of Mr.. G. A.
Spiess, who at once assumed charge Of
the matter. "
Meanwhile lot of alleged private
grants were dug up by Republican
lawyers, and plastered over the original
grant in such mastery manner as to
place nearly the whole of it under adverse
claims. In apparent collusion with those
uhscrupulous Republican speculators
City Attorney Gpiess then asked for the
confirmation Of the Santa Fe grant, with
the exception Of the alleged interior
grants. s9s
The city council afterward instructed
Mr.. Spiess to amend his petition by strik-
ing out the fatal exception noted, but he
has SO far failed to do SO and 1t is limited
that he is waiting for a $500 fee for
doing duty required Of him by law.
He makes the frivolous excuse, however,
that he is waiting to Consult Catron."
It thus happens that the city has made
no appearance in the premises. II is
significant that the Republican city coun-
oil, several OF whose members are more

A CLEAN SWEEP.
Important Record in Rejecting Ari-
zOna Cases Before the U. S.
Court of Private Land
Claims.

The U. s. court of private land claims
is still in session at Tucson. During this
term it has tried and disposed of the four
most important cases on the docket in
that district. The San Jose de Senoita
grant, with Rochester Ford, esq, Maxwell
e. Satterwhite, for claimants, and Hon.
Matt. G. Reynolds for the U. s., was tried
on the 10, 20 and 81 inst, and yesterday
decree was rendered rejecting the grant
and dismissing the petition.
On the 26th and eth the court had before
it the noted San Ignacio del Babocomorl
grant comprising 12S,000 acres, with
Craig d Meredith, of California, and
Geo. Hill Howard, of New Mexico, for
claimants, and Hon. Matt. G. Beynolds
for the U. s. Yesterday the court handed
down an opinion rejecting this claim also.
The San Rafael del Vale grant was also
tried this week, and after determined
fight the U. s. got decision late yester-
day evening.
The motion for rehearing in the mat
ter of the Los Nogales de Elias grant
(Which was rejected at the last term), was
overruled by the court.
This makes clean sweep for the U.
S. in the district of Arizona, not single
grant yet tried having been confirmed.
