THE STRIKERS SURRENDER.

Brooklyn. n. Y, Jan. 2S.-Beaten at
every point except the one doubtful vic
tory in the courts, the strikers practic-
ally surrendered to the trolley railroad
companies this afternoon, only to be
told that their places We're filed.
President Norton, of the Atlantic ave-
nue. system, contemptuously spurned
the offer of his old men to return, and
threw their formal letter in the waste
paper basket. President Lewis, of the
Brooklyn Heights company. sent for
NAL reply in which he courteously in
them back as individuals upon his own
terms as long as he had vacancies to
fill, President Wicker, of the Queens
County and Suburban company, replied
also, Offering his men as individuals.
what places remained on his lines. OF
the 1000 men who went out on strike
on Jan IA, there are places for less
than one-th!rd.
Strike Leader Connolly declares that
the strike is not over by any means,
and that the men rendered their SER
Vices in order to remove all questions of
\ fact as to the ability of the roads to
obtain men and thus furnish a new
basis upon which to apply for peremp-
tory mandamus against the companies
The men say they have funds and
will fight the companies by process of
court and by boycott until the COM
panies give in.
Two Men Arc Shot.
Two men were shot by policemen in
different encounters with mobs today.
One is dying in the hospital. The other
Is less seriously wounded. A dozen
other roiters have been injured by po-
licemen's night sticks and the butt ends
of revolvers in hand to hand encounters.
Non-union motormen have been as
saulted and severely beaten. Car
tracks have been blockaded, car win
dows shattered and trolley wires cut.
These occurrences have been less fire.
quent than during the days of last
week, but they indicated that the
safety of the public Is far from being
established. Early in the day the
troops of the First brigade began leav-
ing for their homes. General McLeer
and the civil authorities reached the
conclusion that the peace could be
maintained by the Second brigade with
its $500 men.
There was great rejoicing in the
ranks of the men who had served the
state and acquitted themselves nobly
during the eight days of riot duty.
The strikers under advice of counsel
have decided to move before the abtor-
ney general for the forfeiture of the
charter of the corpora tion known as
the Brooklyn Heights Railroad COM
pany. This is the company against
whose officers Justice Gaynor issued
the writ of mandamus.
The strike has lasted fifteen days.
1t has cost the railroads half a mil
lion dollars. The troops have cost the
city $lS9,O09. The strkers have lost
| 800 600 In wages. and the roads in loss
OF revenue S22S,0OO. The general para
lysis of business has amounted to a
loss of many millions to the general
public. Two hives have been sacrificed
and many people injured.

Washington, Jan. 2S.-Secretary Of
State Gresham has received an ac-
acknowledgement from Minister Mariscal
of Mexico, of President Cleveland's
communication, expressing the hope
that Mexico and Guatemala would
agree upon some favorable method of
settling the boundary dispute, or fail
ing in that would agree upon a refer
ence of the controversy to friendly arbi-
tration. The dispatch, which is said to
be very cordial in tone, indicates that
Mexico is thoroughly incensed against
Guatemala and can only assent to a
peaceable settlement of the dispute
when Guatemala approaches the sub
ject in more conciliatory spirit.
1t Is understood that Secretary
Gresham has advised Guatemala to
make further concessions in order that
the United States may be in better posi-
ton to reiterate to Mexico our desire
to preserve peace with possibly a little
more emphasis.
The Feeling in Mexico.
City of Mexico. Jan. 2S.-The prospect
of the slightest intervention on the
part of the United States has elected
very bitter remarks from many public
men here and has caused considerable
excitement among the people. The
war fever runs so high that any power
trying to avert it must reckon with the
hostility of public opinion. In the
streets and places of popular resort
is h,it
IN favor of Mexicos settling her differ
ences with Guatemala, once and for all,
without tOlera ton of outside influences.
The newspapers want war They de-
nounce Guatemala as impudent and
truculent and contend that she must he
humbled before there can be any GER
tainty of peace for her neighbors. The
report that Guatemala, Nicaragua and
Honduras have formed triple alliance
for offensive and defensive purposes is
discussed with many ironical comments
on the impotence of these small states
If Mexico takes the field with the army.
the newspapers say, she might as well
fight all three as any one of them as
1t would be no harder to beat them.
Guatemala Fencing for Time.
Another cabinet council was held this
afternoon, presumably to consider
Guatemala's reply to MeXico's final de-
mands. The nature of this reply has
not been revealed, but the general
understanding is that Guatemala is
merely fencing for time. The only posi-
tive clue to the governments pro-
gramme Is found in the government s
small arms factory, where work is
pressed forward with unflagging energy
every hour of the day and night. The
ranks of the regiments are filing rap
idly and apparently everything is in
readiness for a sudden mobilization.

THE CAPITOL AND ECONOMY.

Every one knows that the times are
hard, money scarce and the payment of
taxes unusually difficult. 1t is therefore
plain that the Legislature should study
economy in all proper directions, and see
that the people receive as much as posi-
BILE for their money.
This is an important consideration call
ing for the immediate restoration of the
capitol building.
In order to erect and furnish the CAPT
toll the territory issued 100000 of bonds
bearing per cent interest in 1884, and
an additional $4,000 bearing per cent,
in 1887, to finish furnishing, pay for the
improvement of the ground, etc. On May
y, 1892, the building was burned, so that
it is now of no use to the territory. So
the people have to pay $1,000 of inter
est every year, without any return.
So much remains of value, however,
that the building can be restored for
comparatively small amount. The bill
now in the legislature proposes to restore
it completely and furnish it ready for
use, by issuing $4,000 of bonds bearing
per cent. That amounts to only $3.50
each year of expense. Yet by raising
this very small sum the people will again
have the benefit of the $4,000 they are
now annually paying without any return.
This is such plain proposition that no
one in his private business would hest
tate moment. At present we are losing
$4,000 every year; by raising only $3.50
additional we shall have the benefit of the
whole.
The figures given by the capitol Gus
todian committee show that the value of
the unnjured portion of the building,
including excavation, foundations, por-
ton of walls, dressed and rough stone,
metal and other material, is not less than
$4,000 and probably exceeds $4,000;
that the grading, exterior walls ana stone
fences cost $1s,58O; and that the land,
trees and grass are worth nearly $4,000,
making the total value of the property
as it stands about $4,000. All this is
wasted at present, but by restoring the
capitol, at small expense, we will have
the benefit of the whole of it.
And the point to be considered is that
the territorial auditor, treasurer, solicitor
general, superintendent of public instruc-
ton and adjutant general, now have to
rent offices in various buildings, and the
territorial library also has to have rented
quarters, so that the annual expense
nearly equals the interest that will be
paid on the new bonds.
We are now speaking entirely of econo
my, without referring to the convenience
of the legislature, and the desirability Of
having all the public Offices in one build
ing, or the feeling of pride that we all ma
turally enjoy in having fine and credit
able territorial capitol.
But on grounds Ct economy alone, the
capitol should be Immediately restored.

The bill, throwing open the southern
Ute reservation to settlement and trans
ferring the Utes to the western third Of
the reserve with six townships added
thereto in New Mexico, passed the senate
yesterday afternoon. The people of San
Juan county have been opposing this
move with all their power, feeling that
the governments shiftless treatment of
the Navajoes will be duplicated as re-
CARDS the Utes when once they are
brought nearer them, but as Colorado
has strong congressional delegation to
look after her interests, of course, Col
ordo's cause comes off victorious. New
Mexico will always come out at the little
end of the horn as long as she is handi-
capped by having only delegate in con-
press.

THE StHooL FUND CONTEST.

Hlnkle's compromise act of two years

goes to the use of the country schools

tricts, while not seriously jeopardizing
the schools in to WINS uni CITIES.
In this connection the New MEXICAN
desires to say that it deprecates exceed.
ingly the course adopted by many of the
newspapers in heaping personal abuse
upon Messrs. Curry and Hinkle. These
gentlemen, az their colleagues and every
body about the capital will verify, were

probably the only place on earth where
justices of the peace and constables are
not elected at the general elections. 1t is
a disgrace to the law makers now in ses-
sion that some of them do not at least in
troduce a bill to consolidate the justice
of the peace election and even elect
school officials at the regular fall cleo
tions. The idea of only one justice In a
precinct of probably sixty miles in ex-
tent is relic of barbarism. A Justice of
the peace is not supposed to know much
about law, in fact the law regards him as
nonenity. Neither is he expected to
make living by his little Office. 1t is
therefore wisdom to follow the plan
found most conducive to law and order
and elect two justices and two consta-
bles IN each precinct, at the general fall
elections every two years. The justices
and constables' fees are not paid out of
the county treasury, but from the appar-
ent scarcity of these officials as provided
by New Mexico statutes one would think
a saving was made by this half savage
plan.-Ed1y Current.
