 In the district court at Albuquerque last week the report of c. w. Medler, receiver of the Canavan & Dugan prop erty at Gallup, was presented.

 The Albuquerque Citizen says: The Atlantic & Pacific railroad tax case which was carried up from this county, having been decided against the company by Judge Collier, was yesterday reversed by the supreme court. The decision handed down is concurred in by all the judges except Bantz, who al- so concurs except as to station houses and other buildings on company property. The decision declares that the right of way the line including rails and ties, round houses, turn ta- bles, water tanks and all other i'm provements are exempt from taxation This section of the valley is surely indebted to w. R. Spence for the vim and intelligent industry that he has shown since he prevailed on Maricopa county people to organize a creamery company. The building has been com- pleted; and in point of structure, talk ing into consideration the scope of the different departments in the manu- facture of butter and cheese in the very latest and improved methods there is certainly nothing like it this side of California, where the mechan- ical part was invented and manufac- tured. The machinery has arrived and is being put in place. It weighs 52,O00 pounds. Everything will be ready for operation in a few weeks The creamery's capacity will be about 5000 gallons of milk.
 The Buffalo, Rochester & Pittsburg Railroad company has put one of the largest locomotives into service run | ming on any road in the country.

There arc but six similar engines in the United | States, and but three of these have { slightly larger tonnage. These art used by the Erie as pushers on the hil i coming west out of Jersey City, ant on the Grand Trunk in the St. Clai ] tunnel in Canada The Buffalo
 Rochester & Pittsburg engine will b,
 used in the coal regions and will ru1

 | The Republican last week printed
 an account of the operation performed
 at the asylum on Mr. Cheney of Pres
 colt. Dr. Miller of Prescott, who cam
 to Phoenix to assist in the operation
 wrote letter to his wife, saying tha the operation had been successful,
 performed, and that the immediate re
 suits were most satisfactory, but tha
 it was too early to determine as t
 whether it would afford a permanen
 cure or only temporary relief. A DOT
 t1on of the brain was found adherin
 to. the skull, and was removed. Prio
 to the operation MT. Cheney was vii
 and incoherent, but he subse quently conversed as intelligent
 ly as ever and inquired mos
 affectionately about his wife and bab
 and his mother. The physicians fec gratified at the result of this opera tion. MT. Cheney's many friends ar naturally elated at the prospect of hi recovery from his terrible malady, an hope that it may be complete.
