GIGANTIC FRAUD.
Pennsylvania Pool Investment Con-
Germs Forced to the WaIl-A
Mammoth Steal.

Pittsburg, Oct. 2O.-The discretionary
pool system is on the rocks in Pittsburg.
These concerns have been springing up
almost daily and 1t is estimated that they
now hold between $37,000,0O0 and $780,
100000, representing some $4,000 invest
ors. Their clients are workingmen, wash
women and farmers who we're dazzled by
the prospects of securing from 20 to 100
per cent month on Investments. For
several days the local newspapers have
been showing up the impossibility
of the pools lasting any length of
time. This morning there was panic
stricken rush of investors upon the
discretionary pool known as the Public
Stock Exchange. AS soon as the rush
began the managers announced that they
were the victims Of conspiracy of the
banks and fell back upon the clause in
their agreement by which they can re-
quire several days notice of withdrawal.
short time later a rush began on the
Pittsburg syndicate. Investors were
paid until noon, when the managers an
nounced that the concern would only pay
during banking hours, and would resume
at 9 a. m. on Monday. 1t is anticipated
that within three days almost every dis.
cretionary pool in the city will be wiped
out.
These discretionary pools are a com
bination syndicate in which the money
deposited is to be invested by the brokers
according to their discretion in stocks,
bonds, grains and provisions. Monthly
dividends to be declared on the profits.
The pools have been in operation for
clared regularly.

Ricardo Branch CaryeS Up Pedro
Garcia at CerrillOs-A Drunken
Brawl.

A serious cutting scrape occurred at
Cerrillos yesterday morning which came
near resulting fatally. On Thursday the
miners near Cerrillos we're paid off, about
$4,000 being paid out. Two of the
workmen, Ricardo Branch and Pedro
Garcia, who it seems had a long-standing
grudgs, decided to settle it on the occa-
sion of their coming to town to spend their
money. They met IN the back of H. G.
Kinsell's store. Garcia drew a razer, cut
ting Branch on the face and neck and
severed an artery on the temple. His
shoulder blade and arm we're also seri-
ously hacked and cut. Mr.. Kinsell and
Postmaster Lyon, in attempting to pull
Branch off, had little set-to with him
also, but gun which Mr.. Lyon promptly
pulled on his assailant put a quietus on
him. DR.. Palmer, by putting thirty-four
stitches in Garcia's face and about a
dozen in his body, succeeded in putting
him on the way to recovery. He is fear
fully disfgured, however.
Upon commitment trial it dfreloped
that Garcia was the aggressor and that
Branch was acting largely in self defense.
He was put under 5000 bond which was
promptly given.

HERE'S A SHOWING.
Progress at the Agricultural College
Under Its New Management
An IncreasG'Of Is Per
Cent.
To the Editor of the New Mexican,

To the Editor of the New Mexican.
Mesilla Park, Oct. l8, '9+.-It affords
me great pleasure to report that the New
Mexico College of Agriculture and Me-
ohanic Arts is still increasing its attend
ance in every department. The enroll
ment at present is as follows:
Seniors, 3; juniors, Z; sophomores and
juniors, 20; specials, 2; total, 32. Business
department, 25; third year preparatory,
%; second year preparatory, 80; first year
preparatory, $50. Total-147.
It is doubtful whether any agricultural
college in the United States will make a
better showing as to increase of attend
ance this year than does our own. The
per cent of increase has already reached
Is, and we have no doubt of our ability
to make it reach 100 during the year. The
preparatory department already has a
larger enrolment than the entire college
had last year. The increased attendance
has been secured in the face of many and
great difficulties. The change of manage
ment was severely criticised by several OF
the Republican papers, and especially by
the Albuquerque Citizen ard Las Vegas
Optic; and dire disaster was predicted fo1
the most important institution in the
territory. Their prophesies have as usual
been false. In spite Of the venomous
abuse of its new management, the hard
times and general depression, the oppo-
sition of one regent and his friends, and
the constant criticism and misrepresenta-
ton of the Las Cruces correspondent
of the Citizen, the college has prospered
beyond anything in Its previous history
The faculty are united and harmonious
and more and better work is being done
than ever before. If anyone doubts this
let him visit the institution and show to
the contrary. Visitors are welcome, and
the most careful inspection is expected
and desired. The people of the territory
would like to hear something concerning
the growth and prosperity of the univer.
sity under it's new executive. Both OF
these institutions will likely be asking
for additional appropriations from the
coming legislature. It is certainly in
order to hear what they are accomplish
ing with the present appropriations.

IN Ell PAsO AND SANTA FE,

but that it is greatly under San Diego, San
Antonio, Los Angeles, Jacksonville, Au-
gusta and Tucson, and still more decid
ed'y under Washington, Philadelphia,
New York, Chicago and Boston, main
taining, in this particular, the reputation
Of Denver as resort characterized by an
open sky"
As to tho hours of actual sunshine, the
doctor draws this conclusion from the
records: "The table shows clearly the
great excess of hours of actual sunshine
in Denver over either Philadelphia or
Washlngton, though not as great as are
found in Santa Fe or Tucson"
He concludes his article by reference
to the accusation of high winds at Den
yer, adding that "of winds blowing forty
miles an hour or more, in the year 1892,
we only had three such winds in Denver,
as against fifteen in Ell Paso,
THREE IN SANTA FE
and seven in Tucson, and as against
three in Washington, five in Philadelphia,
six in New York, fifty-nine in Chicago
and eight in Boston; which fact would
possibly astonsh our critics."
DR.. Fisk's article makes very interest
ing reading, both on account of his repu-
tation as an authority on climate and be-
cause of the splendid showing it made for
Santa Fe's advantages to the notable con-
vention before which it was read. The
only wonder, after reading its conclu-
sions in favor of our city as health re-
sort, is that DR.. Fisk does not immedi-
ately come to Santa Fe to live, and at the
same time advise all his patients from
the east to do likewise.

GOOD TIMES COMING.
The Iron and steel Mills of the East
Are Enjoying an Era Of Great
Prosperity.

Harrisburg, Pa, Oct. 2o.-lron and
steel mills in this locality are enjoying an
era of unprecedented prosperity. At the
Pennsylvania steel works the. production
of rails and Bessemer steel last week was
the heaviest for years. The three furnaces
in blast averaged nearly 300 tons daily.
For three days the Bessemer mill aver
aged 12O blooms every twenty-four hours.
The rail mill made 1000 tons of rails
during the week, the largest production
in its history. On Thursday S16 tons
were turned out-nearly ton to every
two minutes. The company has received
a contract for 1000 tons of girder rails

A RUMORED BATTLE.
A japanese Defeat Reported-Ro
sides said to Have Lost Heavily
Movements Of the Chinese.

Shanghai, Oct. 20.-Four vessels of the
Chinese southern squadron have arrived
at Wei Hal Wei. The Chinese steamer
Tung Chow which has arrived here reports
that the two Chinese iron clads and one
Chinese cruiser which have been under
going repairs at Port Arthur have reached
Wei Hal Wei. The other Chinese war
ships will require more extensive repairs
and the departure from Port Arthur may
be delayed some time. Renewed rumors
are in circulation that a
BATTLE HAS BEEN FOUGHT
on the Yalu river between the land forces
of tho Chinese and Japanese.
No accurate details are obtainable, but
according to one rumor the Japanese
have been repulsed with severe loss on
both sides. As the Chinese do not claim
a victory, this report may turn out to be
incorrect. 1t is believed, however, that
fighting actually occurred.
ANOTHER REPORT.
Londoa, Oct. 20.-A dispatch received
from Shanghai to-day says that accord
ing to Chinese advlces severe battle has
been fought on the lower portion of the
Yalu river. The Japanese are said to
have crossed the river and attacked the
Chinese, but after some fierce fighting
the Japanese were repulsed. Both sides
are said to have lost heavily. The Chin.
ese do not claim conclusive victory.
but they declare that they still maintain
their position. No confirmation of the
dispatch is obtained.

An Address to the Chronological AS
S0ciation Which Shows Up
Santa Fe's Climate in
Great Shape.

At the recent annual meeting of the
American Chronological association in
Washington, D. c., DR.. Samuel A. Fisk, of
Denver, read paper on the climate Of
the Rocky mountain region, the figures
of which show up Santa Fe's climate in a
very complimentary light. While, of
course, as a resident of Denver, it was to
DR.. Fisk's interests to present the Colo
RADIO Rocky mountain region as the best
resort for health-seekers, careful study
Of his figures shows Santa Fe to possess
all of Colorados advantages to the
highest extent and its disadvantages in
the least degree. DR.. Fisk makes Santa

A BASIS OF COMPARISON

with Denver. He calls attention to the
fact that Denver is about 800 feet lower
than Santa Fe; and that in its relative
humidity it does not rank quite as high
as Santa Fe. Continuing he says: "a
glance at the table of absolute humidity,
by which mean the actual number o.
grains of vapor contained in cubic foot
of air, will show that Denver is outranked
only by Santa Fe."
Referring to the next characteristic of
climate, which is rain and snowfall, DR..
Fisk says that the mean for ten years
gives Denver only 1888 inches, which,
while much less than in most places, is
somewhat in excess of the rain and snow
fall of Ell Paso, San Diego and Santa Fe."
The doctor
Santa Fe daily New Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1885-1897, 1894-10-20
WAS EVIDENTLY MIsINFORMED

in his next statement, which is to the
effect that the Denver mean temperature
sis exactly the same as in Santa Fe" for
the official records show that Santa Fe's
mean summer temperature is Is degrees
lower than Denver's and its mean winter
emperature is Is degrees above that OF
the boasted Queen of the Rockies.
He goes on to say that Denver franks
along with St. Paul, Santa Fe and Fort
Grant" in the average daily velocity of
the wind for the past ten years; and says
that, in the matter of absolutely clear
days, number of cities outstrip Den
yer, adding: "The figures show that Ell
Paso and Fort Grant greatly outnumber
Denver in the number of clear days,
averaging the one 67 and the other 81
more
ABSOLUTELY CLEAR DAYS
in year than Denver. Los Angeles
shows preponderence over Denver of
2s absolutely clear days, San Diego of -
and Santa Fe of &c."
DR.. Fisk suggests, however, that the
true test of climate is the number of alb
solutely cloudy days, "for these are the
days upon which it is not possible for
invalids to 60 out at all. As to this
point he says: "Here we find prepon-
derance In favor of Ell Paso of 1S days and
of Fort Grant 6 days, and Santa Fe 5
days in year."
Speaking of seasonal sunshine, DR..
Fisk says: "The tables on this point are
quite full. In the year 1892 We see that
there we're fifty-nine days that we're wholly
cloudy, in Denver which is somewhat in
excess of the average obtained by a
previous table. Glancing through the
table it is seen that this is in excess of
that which existed
