BOMB THROWERS SHOT.
six Anarchists Executed at BARGE
lOna-TwO VOlleys Fired.

Barcelona, May 21. The six anarchists,
Codina, Cerezuela, Sogas, Bernat, Villa
rubia and Mir, sentenced to death after
being convicted of completely in the at
tempt of Pallas to assassinate Capt. Gen
eral Martinez Campos and of being con-
cerned in the Liceo theatre bomb out
rage, were executed at 4 o'clock this
morning outside Of the Citadel of Mont
guich. The prisoners passed the night
previous in the chapel of fortress. Force
had to be used to compel them to DO so.
Rain was falling heavily this morning
when the condemned men were taken
from the chapel through subterranean
passages to the place of execution. The
first of the doomed men to appear was
Sogas. Then came Cerezuela, who showed
signs of repentance, and joined in the
prayers of the priests who accompanied
them to the place of death. Cerezueta
was quiet and appeared to be praying
silently. These were the only ones who
seemed impressed with their impending
doom. Their companions shouted all
kinds of revolutionary cries while on the
way to the execution. Troops were drawn
up outside the castle walls and formed on
three sides OF the square. The fourth
side was closed in by the walls of citadel.
The anarchists were placed in line with
their faces to the wall. Standing a short
distance behind the condemned men was
the firing party. At the first volley only
four of the convicts fell dead, and Sec
ond volley was necessary in the cases of
Sogas and Codina to complete their ex-
ecution. There was no disorder.

MINERAL ON GRANTS.
Another Bill Before Congress on an
Important Subject-Kentucky
Capitalists Pushing the
-. Measure.

To the Editor of the New Mexican, Santa Fe.
N. NJ.
Leitchfeld, KY, May 16, '94.-Pursuant
to request find enclosed house bill, G,779
to authorize the location and working of
mines of precious metals, etc.
Chap. $50, Sec. 13, sub. sec. 3, United
States statues, approved March Sd, 1891,
is as follows, to wit:
"No allowance or confirmation of any
claim shall confer any right or title to
any gold, silver or quicksilver mines or
minerals of the same unless the grant
claimed affected the donation or sale of
such mines or minerals to the grantee, or
unless such grantee has become otherwise
entitled thereto in law or equity;
but all such mines and minerals shall re.
main the property of the United States
with the right of working the same, which
fact shall be stated in all patents issued
under this aot But no such mine shall be
worked on any property con
drmed under this act without the consent
of the owner of such property until
specially authorized thereto by an act of
congress hereafter passed."
Under this act not foot of all the
hundreds of thousands of acres of the
richest mineral lands of New Mexico and
ad joining territories, now being adjudi-
Gated before the court of private land
claims, can be worked, even though the
court may have found that the gold, sill
yer, ETC., thereon is the property of the
United States, until after the passage by
congress of such act as is thereto referr-
ed; hence the necessity of immediate ac-
tion by congress. Said bill, No. 6,77o,
is designed to give the necessary relief,
and should be passed before the present
congress adjourns.
We think Mr.. Joseph's bill worthless,
as it practically only authorizes any
claimant to harass the miner.
Any assistance you can give in the
matter will be duly appreciated by the
mining fraternity. Respectfully,
JNo. L. STONE.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
SAN MIGUEL FINANCES.
Results of the Expert Committees
Investigations-Sheriff Lopez
Statement.

The committee of exnert accountants,
appointed by Chief Justice Smith to ex-
anime the accounts of San Miguel county
officers having the charge and disposition
of public funds, has made lengthy re-
port to the court The report covers the
period from January l, 1889, to April 80
1894. 1t sharply criticises the county
commissioners, who have been in Office
during this period, charging them with
gross negligence Of not worse) in order
ing the payment of questionable if not
illegaD accounts for large sums of money,
and holds them "largely responsible for
the present disgraceful condition of the
county finances" Particular attention is
called to the loose and irregular manner
in which large sums have been paid to
probate clerks "for indexing and extra
services" and 1T is recommended that
county commissioners be required more
carefully to scrutinlze bills in future, and
that measures be taken to force the resti-
tuition of past over payments. The re-
port further represents that the books
and vouchers of Lorenzo Lopez, as sheriff
and collector for the term ending Decem-
Der 81, 1890, show deficit of $i,916.16;
that the examination Of the accounts of
Jose l.. Lopez, as sheriff and collector for
the term beginning January |, 1891, and
ending December 80, 1892, has not been
com pleted; that the accounts of Lorenzo
Lopez, as sheriff and collector for the
term beginning January /, 1893, up to
aud including April 80, 1884, are correct,
and all moneys received properly ac
counted for.
Sheriff Lorenzo Lopez was in Santa Fe
yesterday and had a conference with the
governor touching the alleged shortage in
his accounts for the years lSS9-90. He
says he has receipts and vouchers which
satisfactorily account for the apparent
shortage and will be able to make clear
showing before the investigation is con-
cluded.

SAFETY BOX rs ROBBED.
Mystery OF the Omaha National Bank
Lssssss Heavy Losers.

Omaha. Oct. 26.-The fact was made
public this afternoon that the safety de-
posit vault section OF the Omaha Ma
tional bank had been robbed, and in so
dexterous a manner that no clue to the
manner in which the work was done is
obtainable. Large sums OF money have
been taken from the boxes In vaults.
and the exact amount of the losses can
not be known until all have been ex-
amined.
The discovery was made more than
two weeks ago, and every precaution
has been taken by the bank officials to
keep the matter secret. Chief OF Police
Seavey and one OF his detectives have
been working industriously upon the
case. and J. III. Millard, president OF the
Omaha National bank. has given the
largest share of his time since the dis
covery TO an effort TO unravel the mys-
terry surrounding the case.
The principal loser Is VIM. Gladish.
lie has been lessee OF box IN the
vaults OF the Omaha National bank for
number OF years. Last March he
placed In his box the sum OF $500 in
gold. Oct. he discovered that about
1900 out OF the amount was mlssih,
Discovery Of the losses has over y Inclined
the bank officials with perplexity. They
place every reliance on the parties who
have any conenction with the manage
ment OF the vaults, and are thoroughly

The vaults are under the management
OF a very estimable lady. who Is In
every way fitted for the responsible po-
sition she occupied. No suspicion ex-
lists that losses have occurred through
her knowledge or connivance.
