trine Into Practice.

attempted suicide by swallowing prussic

THE LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY
Council Passes H.. j. NJ. No. 1, Request.
ing Congress to Re-establish Ger
tain Military Posts in New
Mexico.
SUMMARY OF The new FRE BILL
Business is Pushed in Both Houses
and Many Measures Are Dis
posed o.
NEW FEE BILL.

The house substitute for the fee bill
passed by the council, prepared by 6
special committee consisting of Hon
Max. Luna, Hon. Venceslado Jaramillc
and Hon. }. A. Mahoney, passed the house
this forenoon after a spirited debale by 9
vote of 16 to Z. 1t is splendid measure
and in the interest of economy and cut.
ting down fees, salaries and expenses.
The salary of the district clerks is ont
down to $2,500 per annum. These Of
ficials are required to give bond AMI are
compelled to account for all fees received.
The district attorneys are to give bond,
to receive no commission on tax suits
and to account for all funds coming into
their possession. From January l, 1899,
the offices of collector and treasurer will
be consolidated, as will those of probate
judge and county school superintendent.
There are many other good features in
the bill as passed by the house this morn
ing and it is hoped that the council will
agree with the house in the measure, that
it will be signed by the governor and be-.
come law.
There is no question but measure of
the kind is greatly needed and desired by
the people of the territory regardless of
political opinions and that the house did
mighty good work this morning in pass
ing the measure. From the temper of
the council those best qualified to Judge
believe that there will be no trouble in
passing the measure in that body.

Constantinople, Feb. 1.-THE council
of ministers yesterday decided to leave
the pacificatlon of Crete to the powers.
The council also decided to send Karathe.
dorf to Crete as imperial high commits.
sioner to adopt military measures for the
Greek frontier, and as previously init
mated, to appoint Marshal Edham Pasha,
who directed operations against the in
surgents of Hertonn in 1896, to the COM
mand of the Turkish troops at Elassada,
with instructions to call out the first re-
serves OF the third army corps now at
Salonika. The sultan informed the
ambassador, that in view of the aggres-
sive attitude of Greece, he had been
obliged to adopt measures required by
the situation. In spite of the peaceful
outlook, it is known that the debarkation
of Greek forces at Crete has caused a
great sensation at Yildlz Kiosk, and it
required the use of much tact on the part
of the ambassadors to prevail upon the
porte to accept the situation. Anti
Turkish manifestations are reported to
have occurred at Arata.
MEETING OF COMMANDERS.
Canea, Feb. 17.-There was meeting
Of the commanders of foreign fleets to-
day on the italian flagship and it was re-
solved to take steps toward bringing
about more peaceful state of affairs in
Crete. A joint note was drawn and sent
by Admiral Canevero, the italian COM
mander who is in command of the united
fleets, to the Greek council. The note
informed the representative of Greece
that any attack upon Canea, Retimo,
Heraklion or Sita will be repelled by
warships in Cretan waters. This step
caused some alarm in Greek circles, but
it is not believed to signify anything
more serious than warning to Christians
and Greek to cease fighting while the
powers deliberate regarding the future of
Crete. 1t is still believed that the pow
ers will in some manner sanction the an
nexation of Crete by Greece.
DEATH DEMANDED.
Constantinople, Feb. .17.-Plaoards have
been found posted in the mosques, de-
manding the death of the sultan.
