AFTER THOUGHTS.

wonder, do her little feet
Ever cross the London street,
Where we wandered to and fro,
Far away and long ago?
Does she. wonder, sometimes hear
Hers are forever in my ear
Words of farewell 1 tried to say,
Long ago and far away?
She scarcely spoke, but in her eyes
Hung apprehension and surprise;
Did she love me, ay or no,
Far away and long ago?
And I, who sigh in looking back
/. who took the other track,
Did I love her, yea or nay,
Long ago and far away?

NATIONAL CONVENTIONS.
Capture Both Political
Gatherings.

Washington, May 17.-San Francisco
citizens are determined to make a strong
effort to capture one or both of the ma
tional conventions. The convention of
silver men from the Pacific and inter
mountain states, which meets at Salt Lake
City this week, will agitate this move
ment by resolution in favor of San
Francisco, which is expected to- receive
almost all if not the entire support Of the
delegates to the silver conference. In
addition to this the Californians have ap-
pointed committee of citizens to be
present at the convention of the Repub-
lican clubs to be held in Cleveland next
June. In order to dispel the general i'm
preston that San Francisco could not
offer adequate telegraphic facilities and
other accommodation, the suggestion
is now being considered of taking the
Washington correspondents to San Fran
cisco as guests of California citizens.

Text OF ChiIi's New Currency Bill
Use Of Both Gold and silver
Provided fOr-Sec. Gresham
Not 50 Well.

Washington, May 1.-THE text Of
Chili's currency conversion bill, as passed
by both houses of congress, has been re-
oeived here. 1t provides for specie pay
ments from June I, 1895. As both metals
are to be utilized the change promises to
have an important effect upon the worlds
supply of the metals. IL IL represented
that Chill is for three years to coin
$6,00o,OO0 of silver per year. All the
proceeds from the sale of the nitrate
beds shall be devoted exclusively to the
purchase of silver. Three gold coins of
$40, $40 and IS are also provided for.
The silver dollar is to weigh twenty
grains and to be SO 5-1OO fine. Silver is
not legal tender above $50, except to
the government, where it is received as
gold when the silver dollar is presented
to it with that object. The act also pro-
vides for a system of bank currency
guaranteed by the government and re-
deemable by the government if the bank
should fail.

Secretary Gresham was rather restless

PRESBYTERIAN ASSEMBLY.
Report on Church Control Of Semi
naries-Lengthy Resolutions
Adopted.

Pittsburg, May 1.-THE business
meeting of the general assembly of the
Presbyterian church to-day was largely
attended, in anticipation of the report of
the committee on the control of semin-
aries, one of the principal subjects to
come before the assembly. The commit
tee says in concluding it's lengthy report:
"In case of heretical teaching on the part
OF any professor, no valid action could
be taken by the general assembly until
that teaching had been adjudged heretical
according to the constitution of our
church, and, in case of violation of the
charter, no sufficient remedy exists In
independent action of the civil authori-
ties, which have the right tointerfere, but
which can not be compelled to do so.'
The committee reports that the direct
ors and trustees of Princeton college de-
clare that they do not antagonize, but on
the contrary cordially acquiesce in and are
in the fullest sympathy with the se1ti-
ment of the resolutions contained in the
report of the general assembly's commit
tee of conference with theological semin-
aries made to the general assembly at its
session in 1894, namely: That the church
should control the instruction given in
its theological seminaries, and that the
funds held for the purpose of theological
instruction should be used only for such
standards of the church.
The committee recommends the adop-
tion of the following resolutions:
REVOLUTIONS ADOPTED.
First, That it is the sense of the assem-
bly, that the assembly of 1894 did not in
tend to prepare the way for any change
In the tenure or management of the prop
erty of the seminaries or to do anything
which can affect the autonomy of the
seminaries; that said recommendation
are intended to have the same effect as
recited in the committees report to this
assembly in reaffirming the resolution of
the assembly of 1894, with avowed pur-
pose of leaving the tenure and right to
all property of all seminaries exactly
where they are now in the hands of the
various boards of trustees, and without
further purpose of securing the veto
power to the assembly except to guard
trusts held and to be held by boards of
trustees against reversion or misuse.
Second, That this general assembly re-
afirms the action of the assembly of 1894,
and, in view Of the progress and import
ance of the interests involved, declares
that in it's judgment the effort should be
continued to secure the adoption in sub.
stance of the assembly's plans by all
seminaries.
Third, That committee be appointed
to have further charge of this matter and

JACK FROST'S WORK.
How the Recent spell ef Weather
Affects ChicsgO's Fruit and
Vegetable Market.

Chicago, May 17.-A local paper says:
South Water street commission men in
this city admit that rumor kills all the
fruit regularly every May. This year,
they say, it is different. They estimate
their loss by frost at 100000. Straw
berries will be scarcer, poorer and
dearer. Monday forty-five cars reached
Chicago, and yesterday only five came.
Opening at $1.25 to $l.5O, they have ad-
vancei 25 cents on the crate, and will
bring 81 before the week is out. Ship
pers at Centralia, Walnut Hill and Rich
view reported the strawberry crop cut OF
BY one-hatf to one-third. Southern Illi-
noise suffered less. Blackberries and
raspberries there are killed outright.
Consid derable damage to Strawberries was
reported from Humboldt, Tenn, and the
available supply is being bought grsedi-
ly.
Michigan fruit shippers say cherries
will be ss scarce as pomegranates. As
paragus, on toast, for short time, will
Be q food for the rich. From 40 cents a
one-quarter bushel box last week 1t haa
jumpsd to $3.50. Peaches bid fair to
make amends for other shortages. Saugs-
tuck, South Haven and St.. Joseph re.
ported no damage. In the Allegan and
New Buffalo regions peaches are badly
damaged, but this will not be felt In Chi
cago.
Early vegetables are sufferers. Corn
and potatoes above ground were cut
down and must be replanted. Peas and
beans have been greatly injured, but
the tomato, cabbage and cucumber crops
Of the Lake View truck farmers will not
be hurt.
Cleveland.- There was another de-
structive frost last night throughout
northern Ohio. Vegetation and fruit
that escaped Sunday nights freeze was
almost completely destroyed. A number
of points report great damage to wheat,
corn and potatoes.
Indianapolis white frost covered
the central portion Of Indiana this
morning. The damage is great specially
to early fruit, vegetables and grain. In
some localities the grain and fruit are
stitf.

COL. CATRON'S CLAIM.
Robert Carley Supplies Some Data Oh
the San Pedro Placer Proceeding.
% the Editor of the New Mexican.

To the Editor of the New Mexican.
San Pedro, Santa Fe county, May 49,
I note an item in the NEW MEXICAN Of
the 18th instant in reference to the San
Pedro townsite, placer claims, etc. For
the information of the readers of the New
MEXICAN will give you few facts on
the other side of the question.
On November Is. 1892, the Canon del
Aqua grant was declared government land
by the supreme court of the United
States, and on the 10Th day Of November,
1892, T. B. Catron, j. d. O'Brien and
others located placer mining claim con-
tanning some eighty acres. On the 23d
day of November, 1895, DR.. Kelley and
others, from Las Vegas, located 100
acres of placer ground virtually taking
in the whole of Tom Catron's claim.
Well, as and others had been residing
in the town of San Pedro, and seeing that
Catron aud others were so anxious to
grab our lots, we, the people Of the town
Of San Pedro, called a meeting on the
29th day of November, 1892, and elected
five town trustees for the purpose of ap-
plying for eighty acres of land for town
site purposes. As soon as the trustees
were elected they hired U. s. deputy
surveyor to survey out the town and
when it was finished an application for a
townsite with a map of the same was
Aled with the probate judge of Santa Fe
county.
But, the board of trustees being in
formed that such townsite could not be
allowed until the land had been officially
surveyed by the United States, they con-
cluded to wait until the land had been
surveyed and was ready for entry. In
the meantime while waiting and watch
ing the ground to see if Catron 4 Co.
and Kelley & Co. would do their assess
ment work, as required by both the
United States and territorial laws; and as
neither Kelley ct al. nor Catron ct al. did
the required work, the board of town
trustees waited until the last location of
DR.. Kelley had run out, on the 23d of
February, 1898, and then the trustees
located their placer claim, thinking that
il would help the people in getting a
tOwneite.
As Tom Catron and his partners did
not do the work in the ninety days re-
quired by law and neither Kelley q Co., I
think that the board of trustees had a
perfect right to locate, not for Robert
Carley or Strumquist, nor for Goodman
d Co., but I, as q trustee, and Valentine
Schick, James Barton, w. ]. Strum quist
and Herman Goodman, located the same
in behalf of over 200 residents that were
living in the town then, although at the
same time we realized then and now
know that there is no more placer ground
on the site where San Pedro is located
than there is on Colonel Catron's brains.
We have never abandoned the town
site, a. your informant says, but we still
claim IL, not only - placer claim but as a
townsfte, and We intend to do so until
Uncle Sam tells MS to git, and tells Tom
Oatron and his pards to come in and take
the buildings that the people here call
homes. R. M. CARLEy.

COLLECTION OF TAXES.
Citizens and Corporations Must Pay
Up by July IA Talk with Col
lectOr Spiegelberg and
Others.

Capt. Sol. Spiegelberg, county col
lector, picked up 500 in taxes during
the month of April which was turned
over to the territorial, county and city
treasurers on the 10th instant, as the law
requires. In speaking of the sub ject
generally he said the extension of time
granted by the Legislature would expire
on July and that citizens and corpora
tlons must be prepared to pay up by that
date or the 25 per cent penalty would be
added promptly in every case. He
thinks the county will be in pretty good
shape to clean up some of its long stand
ing accounts after July l, particularly
since there are probably $4,000 in taxes
that should come in from the corpora
tions in addition to what the plain peo-
pie pay. 1t appears that the Santa Fe
Southern railroad owes $4,000 in taxes
and the A., I. & s. F. and sub-corpora-
tions owes about twice as much, while
the revenue from confirmed land grants
and other interests will go to help swell
the total.
PUBLIC SCHOOL MATTERS.
Inquiry from other sources develops
the fact that an economic administration
of school affairs is likely to place the
schools in much better shape financially
during the coming year than ever here
tofore. It is the general belief that the
school fund has been for the past two
years squandered beyond all reason. Up
to few weeks ago the salary list was
$1,100 month, while now it Is only
about $500 and if the new board is wise
it will still further cut down expenses for
the coming year without squeezing the
teachers who actually do the work or in
any manner crippling the service. In
speaking OF the disposition of the license
fund yesterday citizen who is posted
said there was no possible excuse for
running behind in school funds; that
proper business management would have
placed the city schools on'a cash footing
long ago.
THE RAILROAD BONDS.
Since the decision of the supreme
court showing up the fraud which was
practiced on the taxpayers of this coun-
ty in burdening them with half million
dollar of railroad bonded debt, County
Treasurer Cartwright has adhered strictly
to his resolve, taken upon legal advice,
not to pay interest on such bonds. In
this he is cordially supported by the peo-
pie who feel that their payments for the
past fourteen years morally support
them in their nrasent nosition and no.
body, who now pays taxes will consent to
consider further payments. Thus this
matter is tied up until the bond holders
make move to test the question in the
local courts. The county board, too, as
appear to indorse the treas
urer's position, but they have not yet had
the courage to officially declare where
they stand. This whole proposition is
now up in Grant county and officials and
here are watching for results
in the courts with no small degree of
self interest.
