Timber Trespass Case of the United
states Against the Denver 4 Rio
Grande Railroad on Trial.

The trial of the case entitled the United
States of America vs.. the Denver e. Rie
Grande Railroad company, wherein 500,
600 in damages are sought for allege
timber trespass, continues to occupy the
attention of the United States district
court, with Judge Laughlin presiding.
U. s. Attorney W. B. Childers, Special
U. 5. Attorney A. A. Jones and Mr.. Geo
T. Money are conducting the prosecution
and Hon. j. F. Vale, of Denver, Gen. E
L. Bartlett and Hon. j. H. Crist, of Santa
Fe, are engaged in the defense.
Besides this case there are seven other
similar cases pending before the court
all involving practically the same issues
as the one on trial, as follows: United
States of America vs.. the Denver g. Rio
Grande Railroad company, two more
cases, one involving $4,000 and one
$4,000 damages; United States VS.. E. M
Biggs, two cases, involving $4,000 each;
United States VS.. New Mexico Lum Der
company, two cases, involving $4,000
each; United States vs. Bachelor Broth
ers, involving $4,000 damages.
1t is presumed that the verdict in the
case on trial will settle most of the issues
involved in the other seven cases so far
as the United States court ia concerned

An Appeal to the Public to Aid the
sisters of Charity in Restoring
st. Vincent Sanitarium.

In order promptly to place before the
public in tangible form matter of much
moment to the people of Santa Fe and
the entire territory of New Mexico, the
New MEXICAN has concluded to make the
appended appeal to the public and to
the friends of the Sisters of Charity OF
Santa Fe:
Realizing the great loss which the
Sisters of Charity, the territory of New
Mexico, and the public in general have
sustained in the destruction by fire of st.
Vincent sanitarium of this city, the New
MEXICAN feels that it is it's duty, in be-
half of the Sisters, to appeal to the citi-
zens of the territory and to all charitably
inclined friends of the Sisters in the
United States, to aid them in rebuilding
their grand institution.
The well-being of the sick, the poor,
and the orphans, who have been sustained
by the revenue derived from the sani-
tarium, depends upon the generosity of
the public. 1t is to be hoped, then, that
those who can will contribute literally.
Contributions may be sent either to
the New MEXICAN, to the First National
Bank of Santa Fe, or to Sister Victoria.
All amounts contributed will be men
toned IN subsequent issues of this paper.

The Rio asrande.

eff this section of the country is not
soon visited by a rair," remarked Con.
ductor Dascomb at the depot this morn.
ing, "the Rio Grande will be dry clear up
to this city, and that in the next twenty
four hours. In one round trip between
Albuquerque and Ell Paso, I observed
from my train that the river had dried
up from the head of the Dona Ana dam
to Alamarillo, a few miles this side of So
zorro. Farmers and stockmen south of
Albuquerque are complaining of the
great scarcity of water, and no doubt
prayers are being offered up daily i'm
ploring the clouds to spread themselves
and give forth good soaking rain."-Al-
buquerque Citizen.
