Cor Rrvan and Sewall because they favor
the free coinage Of silver, 10 10 l. Two
r-aars AGO wrote to W. l.. Wilson, when
he was running for Congress, ana asked
him the question whether he favored
single gold standard, If so l could not
vote for him. as | could not vote Tor any
man who did not favor the free coinage
of silver. The following is n letter re
ceived from his private secretary w H.

however. that he is not IN FAVOR oil
single gold standard. need not say 10
YOU that the only hope of the people Tor
freer silver lies in the success OF the
Democratic party. The Republican
marty has ever been foe 10 silver and
its triumph means everlasting death 70
silver. Yours Very Respectfully.
WM. H. WILSON.
Now. Mr.. Editor can il be possible
that Mr.. Wilson has changed so IN TWO
wears time. when he said in his letter.
the only hope for the people was IN the
Democratic party. Now. when the Dem
ocratic party has declared for the free
coinage of silver. rs 20 l. and for the
welfare of this country, and for the good
of suffering humanity, he has turned his
back on his party.
| ask him how he can forsake his party
at this trying hour Now, Mr.. Editor
if he fails to vote for Bryan and SewaIl'
then believe he deceived me out of my
vote two years ago.

lingering illness, which he bore with un-
flinching fortitude and Christian resigna-
tion, displaying in the highest degree the
noblest qualities of the true Odd Fellow
and Christian gentleman; and,
Whereas, It is but just and appropriate
that proper and fitting recognition of
his many virtues should be held IN remem-
brance by the members of this lodge;
therefore, be it
Resolved, That while we bow with hum
BILE submission to the will of the great
Creator of the universe, we do not less
mourn for the brother who has been taken

Robert G. Clarke, u we'll know mining
operator of Colorado and New Mexico,
was recently killed In the shaft Of the
Gold Cup mine at Tip Cup, Colo. Speak
ing of this sad accident the Cerrillos
Rnstler says:
R. G. CLARK came to New Mexico in the
early part of 1892, and soon after his ar
rival relieved R. Y. Anderson as superin-
tendent of the Lincoln Lucky Lee mines
at San Pedro. When these mines closed
down in 1898, he returned to Denver, but
came back here several times looking
after the business of the company. Mr..
Clarke was also we'll known throughout
the territory, especially in Sasnta Fe
county, and his untimely death will be
regretted BY many friends.

The sIuggers.

San Francisco, Dec. 18.-The fight be-
tween Sharkey and Fitzsimmons for pos
session of the purse of $4,000 has been
concluded, and Judge Sanderson of the su-
perior court dissolved the Injunction re-
straining the Anglo California bank from
cashing the check. Counsel for Sharkey
called the attention of the court to the
state law forbidding prize fighting, be-
tween which and "gloye contest" he
maintained there was no difference, and
he therefore argued that case involving
the possession OF purse for prize fight
ing had no standing in court. The judge
concurred in this view, and said he would
have terminated the proceedings earlier
had that point been called to his judicial
attention. The court held that under the
California statute the civic board of su-
pervisors had no more power to legalize
prize fight than to sanction duel.
New York.-Corbett signed Dan Stu
arts articles yesterday. Fitz is reported
to have accepted.

AN HEIRESS GETS A HUBBY.
The Stepdaughter of w. w. McCIel
Ian. of Albuquerque. Surprises
Her Friends.

Mount Vernon, Dec. 16.-The friends
of Miss Naomi voise, aged IS, grand
daughter of the late millionaire, Alfred
Duncomb, were surprised when they
learned that she had been secretly mar
ried to Charles Hollister, aged 10, e young
civil engineer of this city.
On Wednesday, November 25, the young
couple accompanied by two friends, jour
neyed to Newark, N. j where they called
on the Rev. Charles II. Dood, pastor of
the Baptist tabernacle of that city, and
we're united in marriage.
Ii was decided to keep the wedding a
secret until the blessing of the girls
grandn other, Mrs. Naomi Duncomb,
with whom she lived, and Of the boys
parents could be secured. The couple
separated when they reached this city.
Each returned home as though nothing
had happened. Finally the secret leaked
out and to day local paper printed a
short personal to the effect that the mar
riage was rumored. Mrs. Duncomb,
when asked about it, denied the report,
but whena reporter asked the young
lady she admitted the marriage, but re-
fused to give the particulars. II is said
Mrs. Duncomh is not inclined to forgive
her granddaug but the girls friends
believe that everything will be all right
in the end.
The efforts to see the youthful husband
to-day were unavailing, and his father,
DR.. Hollister, knew nothing of the mar
riage until informed of the fact by re-
porter.
The bride is a stepdaughter of William
Wallace McClellen, of Albuquerque, N.
NJ, and is said to be the wealthiest heir
ess in Weschester county. 1t is said that
the opposition of Mrs. Duncomb to the
marriage was based on age.

BANK SCANDAL In DENVER
Alleged Frauds Connected with Man.
agement Of Commercial National
Bank Being Investigated.
CHECK KlTING is FRANKLY ADMITTED
President Dow Says He Was Not
Aware of "Dr." Miller's Heavy Over
drafts Till 1t Was Too Late
Rotten Chicago Concern.

Denver, Colo, Dec. 19.-O. E. Miller
president of the Miller Hernia Treatment
company and one of the three defendants
in the Commercial National bank fraud
case, now on trial in the United States
district court here, told the story of his
transactions with the bank with the ut
most sang-froid on the witness stand to-
day.
He admitted that he kited checks with
all the Denver banks and took upon
himself all the blame for the failure of
the Commercial bank in 1898, in conse-
quence of his overdrafts, amounting to
$125,000. He aaid his affairs and ac-
counts we're 80 involved and complicated
that he supposed his Indebtedness to the
Commercial bank was only $4,000, when
it actually reached total of $4,000. He
declared that the co-defendants, President
Charles II. Dow and Teller Sidney G..
MoClurken, had nothing to do with his
schemes.
As Dow and McClurkeu are charged ia
the indictment with being principals in
the misappropriaton of the banks funds,
and Miller only as an accessory, it is said
that, if the jury should fail to convict the
bank officers, Miller would himself es-
cape under the provision Of the common
law, which provides that the accessory
can not be convicted without the con-
viction of the principals.
Following Miller, President Dow took
the witness stand. He testified that,
while he authorized the kiting of checks
by Miller, he was not informed of the
overdrafts until after they had become 80
large that it was impossible for Miller to
make good his indebtedness to the bank.

THE IRRIGATION CONGRESS-.
Officers Elected and Lincoln Named
As the Place for Next Years
session.

Phoenix, Ariz, Dec lS.-The Fifth
National Irrigation congress Is ended.
The congress has been in all ways a
success. The congress elected the follow
ing officers for the ensuing year: Chair
man executive committee, E. R. Moses,
Great Bend, Kansas, reelected; as also
vice chairman B. Young, of Utah, and
E. G. Hudson, of Illinois; treasurer, A. G..
Uttley, of Rhode Island. National lecturers,
j. e. Emery, of Kansas, and I. A. Fort,
of Nebraska.
Lincoln, Neb, was fixed upon as the
place of meeting for the next congress.
The national committee chosen en-
braced: Arizona, James McClintock; {;
California, j. D. Schuyler; Colorado,
A. L. Kellogg: Montana, j. E. Morse;
New Mexico, W. H. Fanch; Oklahoma,
Prof. Henry E. Glazier; Texas, W. s.
Marshall Utah, L. w. Shurtiff; Wisconsin,
j. E. Goddlng.
There was strong opposition to the
resolution commencing the Carey land
passed, and the resolution, with that
exception passed, with little comment or
opposition.
One resolution presented and demanded
by the California delegation commended
the Wright irrigation law. Other resolu-
tions were that the membership of the
congress be instructed to use all honora-
BILE means for the passage of an act pro-
viding for practical photographic
surveys and the collection of such infor-
nation as may be of use in the location
and construction of reservoirs for water
storage, both to secure water for agricul-
tural uses and make lands below free
from damage from floods; asking for an
appropriation by congress of $1,00O,0O0
for sinking test wells for the development
of artesian wells, also that the irrigation
congress impress upon the American
people the profound Importance of the
social, political and philanthropical
features of this irrigation movement, the
ultimate result of which is that the west
may become one of rural homes, rather
than cities; commencing the erection of
storage dam on the Gila river, near
Florence, principally for the purpose of
supplying water to the Pima and Maricopa
tribes of Indians.
