Special Correspondence New Mexican.
Albuquerque, May II, 1S97.-Yesterday
and today have been prolific of news
some of which may be of interest to the
readers of the New MEXICAN. The past
week offered the Butler and Lockhart-
Emery cases in continuance and the cur
tain will rise on other acts, in which the
above parties will perform the principal
parts.
For six months past the papers have
published item after item about the He'll
canon mining district in the Sandals, the
Milagros company's operations affording
the major portion of the material. The
news gatherers had the best intentions,
but frequent unfortunate breaks in the
machinery, denied them good mining
news notes.
James Elspass, inventor of the
crusher that the Milagros company put
up, says the district isa good proposi
tion, but that it needs men of experience
to develop it. Saunders, who represents
the company, is waiting for Allen and DR..
Grasse, of Trinidad and Pueblo, who own
the principal interest in the Milagros,
and upon their invetigation it is expected
operations will begin in earnest. Rapid
and successful work of development
means fine financial results.
Hundreds of people were anxious to
meet friends among the conductors who
we're expected to show up at o'clock on
Sunday evening. The two sections came
in at 2:3O this morning and only few
owls wearing badges managed to get out
and shake themselves. Conductors Oder
and Stevens brought in the trains, one
car bearing the legend; I'D. & R. divi-
sion."
Conductors Somerville and McGowau,
freightmen, took out the trains, Charley
Ross and Harry McCarty at the throttle.
Joe Walker, superintendent Wells best
man, was as usual on deck, though late,
to see that everything was 0. K. for the
west run.
w. H. Matson, another tireless worker,
Walkers successor as joint agent, failed
not and was on the platform to see to the
Santa Fe's interest.
A Navajo Indian who was in Jail
for wrecking a freight train beyond
Gallup, took leave of Jailer Jones
on Saturday morning. The matter
was kept out of hearing, even For
nof and his aids being neglected un
til Sunday evening. It is supposed
the red man will make for the ressrva-
tlon. Jones said this evening that he had
not been heard of yet.
The supposition is abroad that the
Girard house was burned out a few
months ago and as result Mrs. Ander-
con is lodging but two roomers. She is
faithfully waiting for the insurance on
her effects. The house was not even
singed at the fire.
From authoritative sources it is learned
that Frank M. Jones at recent sitting
with Swede John, cleaned up 1868. The
game was "pitch," q favorite pastime of
the Swede. A year ago, almost to day,
it will be remembered that George Neher
and Mr.. Wickstrom fell into game, per-
haps it was "pitch," and John dropped
ION promise to make it good) $4,000.
Neher has no recollection of gathering in
any part of the dinero promised by John.
James Grunsfeld left last night for Chi
cago on business trip.
Eddie Grunsfeld, competent young
pianist and organist, will 90 north this
week on insurance business. The young
man expects to 60 to Europe to COM
plete his musical studies, in few days.
