Of his wife, Annie He was charged with
chopping to pieces a lounge and bedstead,
smashing SO lamp and other articles, and

been arrested for beating his wifeand he is
now under bail for trial on the charges, SO
that there will be three cases against him at

Still on the Jameson Raid.

LONDON, April 2.-The examination
of Col. Francis Rhodes, brother OF
Cecil Rhodes, was resumed by the
parliamentary south African COMPANY y
today. Col. Rhodes testified that DR..
jameson forced the hands of the reform
committee at Johannesburg, who never
intended to send an armed forc ce to meet
Jameson's party of raiders. Major Sir

fled that the raid was undertaken in

from Johannesburg by which Jameson
and his followers (he himself command

friend Y force from Johannesburg
would meet them at krugersdorf.

to secure the payment of the $1,000.
The deed OF Il ust was filed for record
June 80. 1888, but the county clerk
failed to record it properly, leaving
out of bis record the clause in the deed
of trust providing for the power OF SUD-
stitution. In July, 1888. Juan
Hart attached the property as
the property of G. c. F.tzge, aid, upon
cei ain notes that hal been gwen by
Fitzgerald in The Bennett mine transac-
ion. in New Mexico territory, the
notes having been transferred to Juan
Hart, as Is claimed by him, for value,

IN fact, transferred the property TO the
national Smelling com pany. Prior
60 this transfer, the smelling company
had placed upon the premises improve

THAT SUBSCRIPTION.
Some of the Subscribers Have Paid |
While Others are Holding Out.

Judge Crosby says that the fol OWN @

which there bas already been litiga-
tion. have paid up or are sure OF
settling this obligation; viz. Mayor
Campbell, Judge Magoffin, Collector
Davis, State National bank, o. T Bas-
sett, Miliard Patterson, w. J. Fewell

Those who have refused are Il. T.
White, First National bank, H. B.
Stevens, A. P. Coles, Momsen &
Thorne, S. II. Buchanan.
| the paper, some will pay, others may
rot, but the judge could not say as he
has not called on all of them yet.
Judge Crosby says the paper reads ''in
aid of j. f. Crosby one of the promot-
ors,' whereas he was the sole promoter
of the great enterprise. The main
| reason gwen the judge by one of the
signerS who have refused was the al
legation that some OF the committee
ared they might be called upon to
pay the construction company as well
as the judge, and they wanted to have
it ascertained exactly who was to have
the money. The Judge regards this as
d sub'ertudge and quibble, and the
fact that SD many of the subscribers
have already paid without pro est and
that O hers will pay makes it more
certain than ever that those who per-
sist in refusing to pay their 5000 are
trying to evade bounden obligation.
The amount of money subscribed on
this paper does not by one half repay
the judge for the amount be has ex-
pended in organizing the company that
fually took hold of it with a million
and half back of them The judge
says he had to fight single handed the
powerful interests that were trying to
locate the terminus of the road at Dem
ing, the peop with great haciendas
around Palomas along with John w
Young doing their level best to keep
the line away from Juarez and El Paso.
Then there were interests trying to
take the road to chihuahua. and in the |
triangular contest, Judge Crosby re-
Paso found it necessary to mortgage |
his life insurance for the benefit of |
his wife, and to sell for six bits lands |
in San Sabas county, that he had been |
for at 81 80 per acre, in order
to raise the wherewithal to continue |
the bgbt. And even after he had won.
interested persons started for the City
Of Mexico to try and get the couces
,ion transfer ed to them, thus leaving
The Judge out in the cold. However.
ne was informed in time to reach the
city first, and with two days leeway was
able to so arrange matters that the |
other parties were speedily brought to
erm.
Considering all the trouble he has
oeen put to, and the $4,000 or $4,000
he has expended in the struggle to
ocate the Corralitos road at Juarez,
Judge Crosby thisks he is deserving of
more cOnsiderate treatment.
