The matter of The Territory of New
Mexico ex rel Francisco Duran vs.. San
tiago Abreu, county superintendent of
schools of Taos county, wherein man
damus was asked commanding the said
Santiago Abreu to recognize the election
of certain school directors in districts
No. l and No. 81 of Taos county, was
argued before Judge Laughlin in cham
bers this forenoon by Gen. Bartlett for the
petitioner and Mr.. A. B. Renehan for the
county superintendent.
Judge Laughlin held that the duty of
the county superintendent in the prem
Uses was purely ministerial, that he was
notcalled on to pass upon the legality of
elections in the school districts, and hence
should have accepted the oath of Office
and recognized the election of the direc-
tors upon the prima facie evidence pre-
scented to him. Hence he made the man
damus peremptory and ordered the coun-
ty superintendent to recognize the d.
rectors in question upon their filing their
oaths of office.
The persons thus recognized as school
directors are Francisco Duran, Felix
Santistevan and Dionicio Archuleta, of
district No l., and Jose Hilario Lucero,
Juan Tafoya and Gregorio Barela, of dis
trict No. 81.

NEEDS VERIFICATION.
Alleged Murderous Assault ON Ben
Helwegg by San Domingo Pucb.
los Has Not Been Reported
to Capt. Bulls.

A New MEXICAN representative this
morning showed to Capt. J. Z. Bulls,
Pueblo Indian agent, sensational re-
port in the Albuquerque Citizen repre-
senting that Ben Helwegg, Peralta
canon miner, had been chased by San Do
mingo Indians and his horse shot from
under him.
Capt. Bulls said that this was the first
intimation he had received of the alleged
assault on Helwegg, and added that, if
the Citizens publication was true, IL was
surprising that he had not been oficially
advised of the facts. He continued that,
if he had been informed of the transas-
ton by Helwegg, he would have Inn
mediately gone to San Domingo for the
purpose Of probing the matter to the
bottom and bringing the guilty Indians
to Justice.
He says that the San Domingo and
zuni Pusblos are tho worst Indians he
has to deal with, being non-progressive,
lazy and opposed to schools, but he does
not regard them a. dangerous. Indeed,
during the three years hs has had charge
of all the Pueblos 90 their agent, he has
never known one Of them TO commit .
murder or attempt suoh deed.

four innocent householders arc homeless

yet unknown upon the Coronado and

early morning.
The first attack was made upon the
Coronado, which Is in the city, being
only half dozen blocks from the post
Office and surrounded bysresidences. The
Coronado. .shsfthouse was build on large
smbankment enclosed by logs, and the
machinery Is fifty feet above the street
level. A heavy plank barricade was erect
ed around the machinery and shafthouse
when the nina resumed operations last
month and their house was we'll stocked
with provisions, Winchesters and ammu::
milton. Beyond assaults on workingmen
seen coming from the mine at divers
times, no overt acts OF violence had been
attempted against this mine, until at
o'clock this morning, when few bullets
struck the barrIcade and the men on
guard prepared for action.
1t was a night attack on the property.
Judging from the SOUNDS of the fighting,
1t came from the east. There was no con-
fusion, no crowds on the street. The
first intimation which those down town
received of the trouble was a number OF
shots. The shots came scattering at first,

CHANGED HIS MIND.
First Reardon Claimed He Was the
Victim of Highway Robbery.
Later He Concluded That Those Who Took
His Property Were Friends.

Yesterday afternoon John Reardon
called at the Wickendon street police
station and reported that he was victim
OF highway robbers. Lieutenant O'Neill
and Patrolman John j. Toole set about
to find who the highwaymen were, and
succeeded in doing so. After their clever
work, however, Reardon came to the
conclusion that the persons who took his
90 watch were his friends.
ReardoD, fatrick Sheehan and Lizzie
Clark were drinking out of bottle under
an old coal shed on South Water street
ana there 1t was that Reardon lost his
property. A little later Patrolmsp Toole
had the woman in custody and a few
minutes later Lieutenan O'Neil walked
into the station with Sheehan and the
watch. The woman and Sheehan said
they had taken the watch for safe keep
ing, and now Reardon thinks so. The
man and woman were arrested at the
corner of South Main and Transit streets.
