SIX MORE TO THE GOOD.
That Number of had Dunmore Vote
Discovered Yesterday.

Six more assuredly defective Demo-
cratic votes were turned up by Judge
Knapp in his examination of the fifty
three witnesses summoned by the Dun
more contestants yesterday.
Two old men, Patrick Derrig and
Dennis Derrig, were disqualified
through their own admission that their
naturalization papers were brought to
them from Wilkes-Barre by one Mar
tin Mccormick, and that they never
went before court to be examined or to
take the oath of allegience.
1t appears that some twenty-five
years ago 1t was the fashion to send
after rather than go after your natural
ization papers and it is the expectation
of the contestants attorneys that a
number of these illegally obtained citi-
zenships will be shown up.
Thomas Kelly, the third man disqual-
flied, voted on the strength of his fa-
theirs naturalization, although he him
self was over IS years of age when he
came to this country.
William Barry, James Mccormick
and Patrick Larkin were disqualified
by their admissions that they had not
paid taxes within the required time.

In General
PROVIDENCE.

George Miller was arrested yesterday
afternoon by Constable Seth Smith on a
warrant issued by Alderman Filder at the
instance of David Jones. The arrest is
the outcome of a grievous assault COM
mitted by Miller upon the 1S-year-old son
of the prosecutor. Miller is employed at
the Dickson mine, as is also young Jones.

amount he was committed to await trial.

could get nobody to qualify as his bonds

WOOL GROWERS MEET.
Congress Called Upon for a Protective
Tariff on Nj erinO Wool.

Washington, Feb. 9.-The National
Wool Growers association met here to-
day with thirty-six members present,
representing practically all the wool
growing states and territories. A reso-
luton was adopted, calling on congress
for such protective tariff on merino wool
as will give growers east of the Missouri
river 20 cents per pound, farm value, for
washed; for sections west of the Missouri
river 16 cents is demanded, farm value,
for unwashed.
A committee of seven was appointed
with President Lawrence as chairman, to
confer with representatives of the Ma
tional Association of Wool manufactur-
ers, and with representatives of the Maau.
facturers club, Of Philadelphia, with the
view of agreement on the pending wool
and wooden tariff schedule, with reserva-

conference will be held there tomorrow.
1t is not yet decided, whether the growers
will appear before the ways and means
committee or not. If not, written agree
ment will be fled.

A. & P. TRAIN HELD UP.
Black Jack and Men Thought to ate
the K0bbers-One Man Killed

Marshal E. l.. Hall received a telegram
from Peach Springs, A. T., this morning,
stating that train No. l was held up
eleven miles east of that station at 8
O'Clock last night, by robbers who Sc
cured eight packages of registered mail.
There were three men in the gang, one of
whom was killed by the express mes-
senger. A posse started on the trail of
the other two at daylight this morning.
Mr.. Hall, Judging from the descriptions
Of the men sent him, thinks they are

Centennial Exposition Meeting.
An interesting meeting was held in the
parlors of the Palace hotel last night, in
the interest of New Mexico's display to
be made at the Tennessee Centennial Ex-
position.
] he meeting was hold for the purpose
Of presenting the adyisabllity of making
territorial display at the exposition to
the members of the legislature. A large
number of the legislators were present
and listened attentively to the addresses,
one by Judge freeman, of Eddy, upon
the advantages of making the display;
one by Hon. j. j. Leeson, of Socorro, on
the necessity of making an exhaustive
display of minerals and mining opera
tions; and one by Hon. q. A. Richardson,
of Roswell, concerning the beet sugar
and wool industries.
The speakers made very favorable i'm
pressions upon those in attendance and
the meeting will likely result in some ac-
tion on the part of the legislature pro-
viding for creditable exhibition at the
exposition.
