MERELY POLITICAL SCHEME
Little Chance for Statehood in the
Present Congress Eikins as
Manipulation.

A Washington special press telegram
says: The Republicans of the commit
tee on territories in the house and senate,
have been, to use the language of the
street, getting move on themselves"
during the couple of weeks and going
throug the form of reporting favorably
bills for the admission of Arizona, Okla
homa and New Mexico as states. The
Oklahoma bill has not been reported
favorably yet, but it will probably be in
a short while.
As has been frequently stated 10 these
dispatches, there is no chance of any bill
admitting territory to statehood being
passed by the present congress. The OBJ
ject in reporting the statehood bills
favorably is to assist the Republican
delegates in congress in their campaigns
for reelection. 1t is also learned that
there is deal for the control of the dele
gates from these territories to the st.
Louis convention also involved. Senator
Elkins has taken good deal of interest
in the New Mexico statehood bill in the
senate aud worked favorable report
through the committee on territories.
Elkins, it is said, has made a deal with
Delegate Catron to control the New Mex
leo delegation to the national convention.
| 1t is not known what candidate they will
favor, but the expectation is that they
will be put into the hands of Ekins to be
traded by him at the proper time. Strange
as it may seem, Elkins believes that he
stands chance of the presidential nomi-
nation himself, but, failing In that, he
would be very glad if the vice presidency
fell his way.
Speaker Reed and the Republican lead
ers in both houses concluded long ago
that there were more free coinage SEN
ator now in congress than was agreeable
to them. For this reason they agreed
not to pass any statehood bills during
this congress. This ukase of Speaker
Reed will be carried out and the only OBJ
ject in reporting the bills favorably is to
hoodwink the people in the territories in
the interest of the reelection of the Re-
publican delegates to congress.

SHOOTING AT MONERO.
Deputy sheriff Keys Probably Nor.
tally Oundrd w hiie in the Active
Discharge of His Duty.

Deputy Sheriff William l.. Keys was
shot and perhaps fatally wounded at the
Monero coal mines on Thursday last. 1t
is charged that T. N. Stowell, an en-
ployo of DR.. Pascal Craig, fred the shot.
Stowell is in custody. The rifle ball en-.
tered Keys left side about an inch be-
low the heart, penetrating the lower part
of the lungs and came ont through the
back. At last reports the victim was yet
alive.
The difficulty grew out of the long
pending Monero coal mine contest which
has been in the courts and before the
United States land Office for years. Under
an execution in favor of Messrs. j. II.
Crist and N. B. Laughlin against DR..
Craig for the sum OF $3.50 Sheriff Felix
Garcia, of Rio Arriba county, on Febru-
airy last sold the hosting plant, cable,
engine house, coal dumps, etc, to I. c..
Jones, who bought the property in be-
half of Messrs. Crist and Laughlin. When
Mr.. Jones went to take possession he
found that DR.. Craig had securely locked
the property up and down and had, it is
alleged, placed his employees inside the
engine house and armed them with rifles.
Mr.. Crist sued out writ of repleven.
This was served by the sheriff on DR..
Craig at his home on Thursday, but when
the officer reached the coal dump he
found two or three armed men in charge
behind locked doors. The sheriff or
dered them out but they refused to
bulge. He threatened to break down
the door; still they refused to come out
and surrender. ~
About 6 O'Clock that evening the sheriff
directed his deputy, Keys, to take posi-
ton on the coal dunn and to permit no
one to enter upon the property, and to
arrest the men inside in case they came
out. About dusk one of Craig's employees
arrived with supper for those who were
on guard inside the engine house. The
fellow refused to keep of the property
and was arrested, ard at this juncture
someone inside the house fred through a
window and Deputy Sheriff Keys tumbled
over in heap. He says he saw Stowell
fire at him. Keys was cared for by
friends, and may survive, though his con.
dition is critical. DR.. Craig's men still
hold the property. Five of his men have
been arrested and are held to await the
results of Keys wound. Their names are
T. N Stowell, Perry Craig, VIM. Hamp-
ton, Harry Hughes and Apolonio Mar
tinez. They will have preliminary hear
ing on Tuesday next. In the meantime
other plans for executing the judgment
of the court and securing control Of the
property are being arranged. There may
be more bloodshed before the affair ii

RICHEST STRIKE OF ALL.
A PrOspectUr Named johnson Has
Found EabulOusly Rich Gold
Streak Near Golden.

Correspondence New Mexican.
Golden, N. NJ, March 23. - Tally
another one for Golden and Santa Fe
county. The richest strike of all was
made last week.
A prospector named johnson came
into Golden last Thursday and exhibited
some ore that he had discovered that day
which beats anything so fur foundin the
camp.
1t is an oxidized yellow brewery soft
and crumples very easily. Your CORE
spondent Was shown piece weighing
three ounces which contained IS worth
of the yellow stuff. This piece was pull
verified IN mortar and the gold actually
washed out of it.
I WAS shown, also, another piece which
had become partially pulverized from
carrying it in the finders pocket, and the
pit lverizsd portions we're 80 rich that it
appeared to be one half GOLD.
Take the first named piece and COM
pute the value of such ore per ton and
you would have result of at least $780,.
600 in gold. There is no doubt that the
ore is immensely rich.
will send the NEW MEXICAN sample
of the ore in few days 80 that all who
desire to see sample of Goldsn's
riches can do so by calling at the office.
This lead or vein is not wide. Mr..
johnson says it is four inches wide, all
very rich, but the very richest part, such
as the samples shown, is two inches in
width.
This find is about two miles east OF
Golden on government land.
| Mr.. johnson, being an experienced
prospector and being almost stranger
to the camp, coming here last winter,
says he will not tell just where he found
this ore until he is positive he is ON I'M
located ground, and that other mining
claims previously located do not conflict
with the ground on which he has made
this rich discovery and which he desires
to locate and claim by reason thereof.
Where claims are located 30 close to-
gether it Is almost impossible to expect
this ground to be entirely vacant, or that
the lucky finder can get full claim in
the part of the camp where his find is To-
Gated. Half claim is enough, and,
should he be ON some other miners claim
one would think that the owners of the
older claim should be glad to make a
fair division with Mr.. Johnson.
have delayed reporting this strike
hoping that Mr.. johnson would disclose
the exact location of it, but have con
cluded to give the facts as they exist and
send further information later.

A SPECK OF WAR.

The assassination of Nasr-Ed-Din ma be
the spa rk that wiliiight the flame of another
great European war. For years both Rus
sia and Great Britain have strivcn for the
supremacy of their respective influence in
Persia, and so far the former appears to
have had the upper hand. The dead ruler
was decidedly friendly to tue czar. and his
successor is credited with inclinations in
the same direction. The murdered mon
archs eldest Son, however, barred from the
succession by reason of being born of a
plebeian mother. and perhaps because of
that very fact more progressive in his ideas.
is said to lean toward Great Britain. II is
even believed in some places that he ma Y
not have been ignorant of the purpose to
assassnate his father: and. if such be the
case. he Will more than likely contest his
younger brothers right TO the throne.
Should he be successful, his prediction
for British civilization would be made
manifest in more ways than one.
Here, then, would be conditions more
than favorable to a clash of Russian and
British interests in the East where already
the oontiguity OF territory and conflict
ing aspirations have produced relation
that are more than strained. Though the
future queen of Great Britain is the
Cars aunt. it is not believed thatthis re-
latonship would prevent a collision any
more than it would stand in the way of a
struggle between Russia aud Germany. or
Germany aud Great Britain. In the event
of an iuternecine war in Persia Russia
would OF course range herself ou the side
MuZzafir-Ed-Dim. while Great Britain
would take sides with Sill Ell Sultan. the
eldest son. The struggle thus begun in
Persia would soon spread to Europe. and
might speedily involve all the powers in
one mighty war The probabilities of the
situation may not be overpowering. but
the possibility of a European conflict aris-
ing from thecauses Indicated is byno means
excluded.
