LOCOMOTIVE BLOWN UP.
One of the Big 800s on the Santa fe Road
Dropped Its Grown Sheet at Lamy-
Fireman Badly SCalded,

An extra fruit train pulled up in the
lower yards at Lamy at 0 o'clock last
night, northward bound, and the en-
CINE, a big Dickson, one of the SOOs, cut
off and went to the coal chutes to load
the tender with coal, While
ment's warning, the crown sheet
gave way and in less time thar it takes
to tell it, there was a deafening crash,
as the contents of the boiler and fire
box were blown out OF to the ground,
and the big machine was left Il good
deal of a wreck. Engineer Boyd es-
caped. as far as can be learned, with
comparatively few injuries, but the
fireman, John Sherman, was found aft
erWards, as the station and yard men
rushed to the rescue, so terribly scalded
and burned that on picking the poor
fellow up, the pieces of flesh came away
from his body with the tattered cloth
ing. He was carried to the depot and
everything possible done for him, and
when the east-bound passenger train
came along he was sent on to the hos
pital at Las Vegas.

of the accident was most likely due tc

engine was not on hat part of the line
where it would be liable to run short
of water. and as everything seemed tt
go at once, there was evidently a sud.
den and general giving way of the
crown sheet supports. An examination
of the destroyed locomotive will be
made to place the responsibility.
Since the above was written it has
been learned that Engineer Boyd was
blown out of the cab window by the
force of the explosion. and hurt some

ground. But otherwise he is all right

A Scrapping COOness.

This morning a mulattogirl about
16 years old, presented herself to
the Huddleston beef counter, and IN
a pleasant manner asked Mr.. Ed
Huddleston to give her some dog
meat. While Ed was picking up
some scraps the girl proceeded to
take a choice steak from the coun-
ter and roll it up in her handker'
chief, without being detected by
the accommodating butcher A
gentleman who was in the shop saw
the performance and told Mr.. II. OF
it when the coon passed out the
door. She was called back and when
accused or the theft, said get out
of my way and let me go" starting
toward the door. Mr. H. laid his
restraining hand upon her and she
gave him a backhander and pushed
open the door and was caught again
by Mr.. Ii. and the fight was on in
earnest, the butcher trying to hold
his catch while the girl was scrap
ping to get loose. Marshal Casey
came up and with the help of anoth-
er officer, succeeded in landing her
in iail. She will be tried this after
noon.

Garcia Gets Hufy.

Santiago, July 21.--General Gar
cia has written a letter to General
Shatter declaring disgust of his
treatment at the hands of the
Americans and he will consequently
withdraw his forces to the hills, be-
ing no longer willing to submit to
the indignities to which he has
been subjected.
Among the things of which Car
gia complains is the failure of Gen.
Shafter to officially notify him of
the surrender of Santiago and he is
also incensed over the fact that he
had no invitation to attend the
ceremony of the formal surrender.
Another grievance is the action
of Geu. Shatter in retaining the
Spanish Civil authorities in the ad-
ministration of their functions at
Santiago.

Sampson Must Obey.

Washington, July p. President
Mckinley today issued personal or
ders through the secretary of the
navy to Admiral Sampson that he
should proceed Immediately to
Porto Rico with General Miles,
The presidents orders are suscepti-
BILE of no misconstruction. They
are imperative to a degree seldom
employed except in cases of ex-
treme emergency. They are of the
sort that will brook no delay in
their execution, Admiral Sampson
must start at once or the president
himself will know the reason why.
No excuses of an ordinary nature
will be accepted by the president
for further delay.

CARLIsTs CLOSELY WATCHED
Rumored That weyler Will be Placed
Under Arrest.

Bar.rrr, France July 2l.-A dis
patch received from Madrid dated
yesterday SAYS the police searched
several Carlist houses the previous
evening aud adds that the govern
ment is satisfied Of the existence Of
a widespread Carlist plot Conse-
quently the Carlist newspapers will
probably be suppressed
Continuing, the Madrid dispatch
says: In spite Of the denials Of the
ministers, everything points to the
emrneuce Of a crisis, II is believed
Gen Polayieia will become minister
Of war in a military cabinet which
the condition of affairs seems to
call for.
There is an uncouhrmed rumor
that the goyerumet intends
to arrest Gen. Weyler At
the last audience which the
general had with the queen re-
gent he protested against the cal
umuies leveled at him and said:
"Aboye all, ] am a soldier, and |
will vaIiantly defeud the institutions
of my country and the royal house.
As Gen. WeyIer has immense
prestige among the Spanish officers,
especially among those returning
from Cuba, it is regarded as prob
able, if a military ministry is
formed, that his assistance will be
invited.
The government has prohibited
the publication of news OF the
movement of Spanish warships, and
the whereabouts of Admiral Ca
mara's fleet is not known 1t was
last reported at Port Mahon.
