THE PULLMAN TAXES.
The Greedy Corporation Pays the
Munificent Sum of S81.46 in
New Mexico.

The last general assembly of New Mex
leo passed law entitled San act to regu-
late the manner of taxing sleeping cars"
1t WAS approved February 2S, 1898. This
law requires the Pullman and other sleep
ing car companies doing business in New
Mexico to make annual reports of their
operations in this territory to the auditor
thereof and fixes the rate of taxation at
$3.50 per $1OO of annual gross earnings
in the territory. In compliance with
this law the Pullman company by it's Sec
retary, A. =. Welnsheimer, Of Cook
county, Illinois, reported that last year it
operated nine palace and six tourist
sleeping cars in New Mexia. and that the
total gross earnings thereof we're $4,345.
These are sworn statements of fact. Ac-
cordingly, for the year ended March l,
1898, the Pullman Palace Car company
transmitted to the auditor of New Mex
leo draft for $S1.46, half of this lnunifi-
cent amount going into the territorial
treasury and the other half being appor-
toned pro rata to the various counties
through which the Pullmans are operated.

A Few Trains Moving, But Business
Yet Suffers-COntempt Proceed
ings Set for Tomorrow.

Business on the A., I. & s. +. is NOV
ing with less activity to- day than on yes
terday, still they are moving. During
the twenty-four hours ending at o'clock
last evening ten passenger trains passed
Lamy en- route west and two went east,
and each train carried from three to six
cars of express matter and a great guam
tiny of delayed mail. To-day the usual
morning train from the south got in two
hours late, but only one train has gone
west from Las Vegas since o'clock yes
terday afternoon. No. 8 passenger and
mail train, which should have left there
at 43O Yesterday afternoon got away for
the west at II: 80 to-day. The company
is still having difficulty in securing en-
gineers, despite the fact that majority
of the engineers at Las Vegas voted not
to join the strikers. Neither of the
roads or express companies in this city
will yet receive freight except at ship
per's risk, 30 the decentralization in busi-
ness is still very great.
1t now transpires that the cause of the
delay in moving train No. at Las Vegas
yesterday afternoon was that dynamite
had been used to wreck the trains engine.
Nobody was hurt, but the engine was
pretty badly damaged. Some tramps
came along before the train approached
and saw the dynamite and attempted to
remove it when they were fired upon from
ambush and driven away.
The thirteen Ration men arraigned be-
fore Judge Seeds yesterday have decided

contempt proceeding in which these men
are involved will be called for hearing at
10 a. N. tomorrow and III the other case
they are promised speedy hearing just
as soon az witnesses from Ration and
some that are now in Chicago can be got
here.

Gather Forecast.

Foster predicts storm wave in the
Rocky mountains for the 10th and 18th.
He says:
This disturbance will develop consid-
erable force and cause heavy rains in
spots. The center of its path will lie
through the northern tier of states, it's
greatest wind force not far from the 10th
parallel, while mild rains may be expected
in spots along the gulf and south Allan
tic coasts.
This disturbance will be rain-maker,
and with the disturbance preceding it
will cause the principal rains of the
month to fall on the Pacific cocst from
18th to 18th, in the great central valleys
from 18th to 21st and in the eastert states
from 18th to ed. The last part of July
will be dry and the total for the month
will be below the average.
The warm waves will cross the western
mountains about the 11th ard 18th, the
great central valleys about 18th and 10th,
and the eastern states about 18th and 2lst.
The cool waves will cross the western
