A BAD LOT.
A Batch of terminals Who Have Fallen
Under the Ban of the Law in
New Mexico.

Sheriff J. A. Garcia, of Conejos county,
Colo, came down over the narrow gauge
on Saturday evening with papers for the
arrest of David Branson, wanted for cat
tie stealing in Colorado. AS soon as the
requisition of the Colorado governor was
signed by the governor of New Mexico,
Sheriff Garcia and Deputy Sheriff Tucker,
of this county, started for the coal mines
near Waldo. They returned about 2
o'clock this morning, with Branson in
custody, and the sheriff and his prisoner
left this morning for Colorado.
AN EL1zABErHrowN AFFAIR.
Mrs. Mamie Moore, wife of George
Moore, of Elizabethtown, has signed a
confession that since last July she has
maintained criminal relations with John
Harberger. The husband has instituted
proceedings for divorce, and the woman
declares her intention to marry Harberger
as soon as the decree is granted separat-
ing her from her present husband.
SHOT AND WINGED" HIM.
John Coleman, of Springer, was too
handy with his gun a few days ago. ]. B.
Truiillo and his men drove Coleman
from the river with rocks where the
former were cutting Ice and the latter was
skating. Coleman got gun and return
ing renewed the difficulty. Trujillo re-
celved flesh wound in the leg that will
confine him to his room for few days
and Coleman is in Jail, on default of ST.
600 bond, to await the action of the grand
jury.
IN A BAD WAY.
Since three members of the so-called
Law and Order league were placed under
heavy bonds at Albuquerque for the muir
derous assault upon the A., T. & 5. F
section foreman, Jerry Hickey, at Ber-
nalillo, matters have taken bad turn in
the vicinity of the latter town. The
other night parties thers abouts drew the
spikes that hold the rails near Algodones
and wrecked freight train. Eleven cars
loaded with ore and bullion we're ditched
Both the A., T. &. S. F and territorial
officials are working on the case, and the
m ost vigorous effort is making to break
up that murderous gang. The penalty
for train wrecking in New Mexico is
death by hanging.
LANDED IN THE PEN.
Felipe Padilla, one of the alleged muir
derers of the mail carrier, Jose Romero,
of Socorro county, was brought to the
city yesterday by Fl. w. LOOMS, chief
deputy In U. S. Marshal Halls Office, and
turned over to the penitentiary author
tiles for safe keeping. Padilla is held in
default of $4,000 bail. His trial comes
M at Socorro the coming March. The
other prisoner, leopold Madrid, secured
bondsmen.
GONE WRONG.
i C. H. Blanchard, familiar figure about
the streets of Albuquerque and rather
swell high roller, has become entangled
in nice mess. He is charged with numer
Gus forgeries. In addition to note o.
$500, bearing G. H. Kenredy's alleged sig
nature, are the forgery of Mr.. Fergusson't
signature for $500 and W. B. Childers
for $500. Blanchard also gave his per
sonal note for $500 to d. H. Rohrs. This
note was secured by chattle mortgage

porting to be signed by that gentleman
lie is also alleged to have secured $1S(
by forging Charles Writings name. HI
is out of Jail on $1,000 bonds, and a set
Element is pending.

the same stripe on hand to-day. E. L
Gilbert, lately agent there for Wells
Fargo g. Cos. express, has been arrested
on the charge of embezzling funds
amounting to $l,S59.15. The evidence
against him is conclusive. He was re
