EARTHQUAKES AND ASvILs.
Alleged Heavy Cannonadsng This Mornil
Revivea An DID Iucident

Alleged Heavy C-annonadsng This Morning
Revives an Old Incident.
Some time ago, yea several years ago.
NJ. Y. Stamm, the wide-awake commission
merchant ard a writer on various i'm
p0rtant subjects, reported That an earth
quake had resounded throughout the
lower regions aud shook the south end OF
albuquerque, especially the precinct OF
BArelas
The item was a cracker.a.jack from a
newspaper point OF view, and, as The
CITIZEN representative was busy dealing
with a force OF base ball fans at that
time. John Jac0by was detailed forthwith
10 run down the earthquake story aud

the subject, giving a list OF the killed
and wounded. and illustrate with graph.
icAlly-drawn cartoons the fearful destruc-
ton brought about by the underground
wonder.
Mr.. Jacoby, with pencil and tab in
hand, started In the direction indicated
by IA informant, aud, after an absence
OF about two hours, he returned 10 the
office.

tive.
IL interviewed half q dozen families In
the west end OF tho city. and almost

MI. JacOby. From the latter, II was
learned that Donaciau0 Chayes, who was
down on the Las Padillas list as one OF
the orators 10 deliver n Fourth OF july

sleep at midnight, and during q pretty
perOration on the spread eagle style, he
allowed his stent0rian voice In a rumb-

earthquake, with a powerful prOpelling
force but not a destructive one, was form.
ed"
Thus ended the Barelas earthquake
story. and Mr.. JacOby was paid for his
services and dismissed.
This morning, at 1880 o'clock, Mr..
Stamm fastened TO THE CITIZEN office
and inquired "whAt caused the heavy
c%annonading In South Albuquerque last
night or early this morning"
The newspaper representative informed
the gentleman that nothing OF the kind.
In the way OF startling war news or
otherwise. had been reported.
Mr.. Stamm stated that he and his son
had been ruthlessly aroused from their
sleep by the firing OF cannons or anyils,
at about 2 or 3 o'clock this morning, and
thinking that some celebration was 90
ing on over Admiral Simpsons victory.
they got up TO join In the celebration,
but could find no one, at that early hour,
who had heard the heavy cannOnadlng
except themselves.
The report Of heavy cannOnadinR In
this vicinity lead the reporter TO believe
that the Spanish Camp Verde fleet had

Gov. Otero Telegraphs President MeKIn-
ley Offering Their Services.
Capt. Q. ID. Rogers returned from Santa
Fe last night where he had been 10 con-
fer with the governor in regard to the
prospects Of Company G, Albuquerque
Guards, going to the front. His inter
view with Gov. 0tero, II is learned, was
eminently satisfactory. The governor
showed that he entertained none but the
friendliest feelings toward Company G
and ia members, whose many sOldierly

Governor OterO has telegraphed Presi-

SECOND MEETING
 OF CRICKET CLUBS.

Last Sunday the second match of the season between the Alameda and Pacific cricket clubs began at Alameda on the Webster-street grounds. The Pacifics went in first and put together 16S runs, to which score the principal contributors were A. Dickinson fl, J. J. Theobald 31, F. Sewell 19, H. c. Cassidy Is, and J. H. liar bour H. No fewer than seven of the Ala meda team were tried as bowlers. and of these F. c. Driffield took wickets for 25 runs, A. Price for 23, J. J. R. Peel for B. and F. Croll for 34. At the call of time the Alameda team had scored Il for three wickets, F. Croll being not out 26, and G. Croll not out IA. R. B. Hogue 9 and J. H. Spiro 15 were both caught off Sewell's bowling, and H. Bird. 3, was bowed by Wallace.
 The match will be continued tomorrow, and. If the remaining wickets of the Ala medas prove slow to fall, may end in be- ing drawn, as a two-day match which is not played out is not decided by the score in the first inning. Should the match be unfinished it is to be hoped that both captains will agree to play 1t out on the 18th, which is an open date, no matter in whose favor the game may be when stumps are drawn at 5:90 tomorrow aft ernoOn.

want our lumber they can have 1t, but they must pay us the usual tariff for it. If 1t was s14 per 1000 feet, as it was some months ago, they would have to pay that price and get out of 1t as best they could. I do not think they will be. de. pendent upon us, as they have a mill of their own. I am sure that lumber deal CTS will not refuse them material just be- cause they placed a bid of $11 50 before the Harbor Commissioners. We are all in the business to sell, and if they want 1t they can buy at the current prices.
 ''It Is true that MT. O'Brien of our con- pany made motion at the Retail Lum- Der Dealers Association meeting that the retail dealers should stand together and keep the price of lumber at $14 50. Many signed an agreemnt to that effect, but the E. K. Wood Company refused. Their placing bid before the Commissioners for $1l 50 has had a bad effect on the market It being a public bid, dealers will necessarily lower their prices to that fig ure. It has simply demoralzed the mar ket-broken it up, as it were. l do not think our, company will bid for the con- tract"
 As was stated yesterday, the plan will be to compel the E. K. Wood Company to pay the ruling price for lumber if they need 1t, which would entail loss on the contract.

 The steamer Sunol is to make an excur- sion around the bay and up to Mare Isl and and Vallejo tomorrow. leaving Washington street wharf at 10 a. m. The troopships now being fitted out will be visited, and as two hours will be given the excursionists at Vallejo there will be ample time to examine the Philadelphia, Yorktown, Monadnock and Nero at the navy yard. The trip should be very pleasant one.
 The steamer Oregon arrived from Port land yesterday with the remains of Cap tain Stephens aboard. On the trip north the captain dropped dead on the bridge from heart disease. His children met the steamer on her arrival and the remains were removed to undertaking parlors.
 Owing to the fact that both the Austra- lia and Zealandia have been chartered as troopships by the Government there will be no vessel of the Oceanic Steamship Company. to take the sailing of the 2sth inst. Owing to the scarcity of suitable ocean steamers it has been impossible to charter vessel to take the Zealandia's s place. A boat may be secured to go out on the July 2 run, but it is doubtful

Two Would-Be Burglars Arrested
 and Held to Answer Within

EGW 11OuIS.
 Frank Smith and August Normant, fre- quenters of the Plaza, on Kearny street, were arrested about 1 o'clock yesterday morning on a charge of attempted bur glary, were arraigned and examined in Judge Joachimsen's court few hours later and held to answer before the Su- perior Court in s2000 bonds each.
 Policeman Edwards saw the two men acting in a suspicious manner at the grocery of Andrew Anderson, corner of Leavenworth and Jackson streets, and stood in a doorway to watch develop ments. When he saw them trying to force open one of the windows with a jimmy he concluded 1t was time to act and he grabbed hold of Normant. Smith ran and Edwards blew his whistle, which was answered by Policeman Williams, who gave chase and soon overlook Smith.
 When Edwards caught hold of Normant he pulled a revolver out of his pocket, but Edwards wrenched it from him be- fore he had time to use it. Normant had, also, possession of the jimmy and a bunch of keys. Besides the charge Of attempted burglary charges of carrying a concealed weapon and having burglar tools in his possession were booked against him. He was convicted on these charges, but sentence was deferred pend ing the result Of the felony charge in the Superior Court.

LUMBER IS
 DEMQRlLIzED E. K. Wood Company Spoiled a Compact. TOO CHEAP AN OFFER FIRMS WILL SELL MATERIAL AT THEIR OWN PRICES. Harbor Commissioners Will Obtain Lumber at Greatly Reduced
 Rates-Mr. Wood Ex-
 plains.
FIRMS WILL SELL MATERIAL
 AT THEIR OWN PRICES.

The lumber market has been demor- alized by the action of the B. K. Wood Lumber Company in deserting the pre- arranged movement among large hand lers of the useful commodity to uphold the market by charging Sl4 per 1000 feet The Wood Company broke the spell a few days ago by putting in bid to the Harbor Commissioners offering to furnish them with lumber during the next six months at S11 50. Their action was de- cried by other firms as it lowered the standard of prices which they had set at a meeting of the Retail Lumber Asso- citation, and threats were freely made to punish the firm for its audacity.
 While condemning the move of the E.. K Wood Company. many of the firms will follow Its example by lowering their prices and bidding for the contract, which they know will net them a neat profit, in the hope of being awarded the con- tract.
 As was published exclusively in The Call of yesterday, a movement was on foot to defeat the object of the desert ing company by placing every obstacle
