to Albuquerque Movement
of Machinery.

W. j. Cartan, Of the Cochiti Gold Min
ing company, recently returned to Blanc
from prolonged visit to Denver, com
ing latterly from Albuquerque. where
he had been to see Superintendent Hur.
ley of the Santa Fe, in order to have
| platforms and derricks for the handling
OF the large amount of new machinery
for the Albemarle mill and mine placed
at Thornton. Mr.. Cartan, who will
soon leave on visit to California, was q
welcome visitor of the Herald, which
was informed that his mission to Albu.
querque was successful and the plat
forms and necessary derricks to move
the heavy Albemarle machinery from
the cars would be Immediately erected
at Thornton.
w. l.. Trimble will begin hauling the
machinery on the first of March and
will crowd the work, as it is desired to
get all the machinery and material pos
sible on the Bland side of the Rio Grande
before the spring freshets put a stop to
this traffic.
The latest news bearing on this ma
chinery is that the Cochiti Gold Mining
company has placed an order with the
Colorado Iron works of Denver, for an
electric light plant. three pairs of Alice
rolls and a $50 horse power Corliss en-
gine, with shafting, pullcys etc. the
entire order to be filled by March !.
On the best of authority the Herald is
in Il position to state that it is believed
by the Cochiti Gold Mining company
that they can with the process they will
use reduce the cost of treating Cochit
ores to 81 a ton. The Herald is also in
formed that the company has transfer
red a bank account of 100000 from
Denver to Albuquerque. this amount to
be used in carrying on their extensive
operations on several groups of big mines
in the Cochiti gold mining district.
The work at the Albemarle mine is
progressing rapidly as usual. Excava-
tions for the tramway and new 1.5 ton
steel mill is being pushed to the utmost,
20 men being employed on this work
alone. The work in the mine is making
tho usual good headway. A substantial
new road up the canon over which
to haul wood for the mill and
mine timbers is finished. Pipe laying
from Peralta canon to the Albemarle,
a distance of five and half miles. will
begin in a few days. A number of
Trimble's teams are constantly on the
road hauling heavy timbers and build
ing lumber from the Allerton sawmill
to the Albemarle. and steel rails and
much other material are coming in daily
from Thornton. the nearest railroad
point.
H. E. Anderson informs the Herald
that he will build next to the big An
derson- Rogers boarding house at the
mine 20x25 two-story house to more
conveniently accommodate the immense
crowd OF employees now at the Albe-
mario. They will have this additional
boarding house up and completed in 1O
days.

False Alarm.

A report in town this morning stated
that one of the Indian school boys had,
in u fit of dependency taken poison,
and was gone to meet his ancestors in
the happy hunting grounds. So a New
MEXICAN reporter hurried out to the
school to ascertain the u%nvarnished
facts. Snpt. Vietz was away ut tho
time, but the lady principal, Miss Sill
colt, welcomed the newspaper a with
a serene smile on his making known his
errand, and said there was really moth
ing Iii it. There had been no Indian
boy or girl sick and no one in the insti-
tuition had meditated suicide so far as
anybody knew.
The report undoubtedly started from
the sudden and painful illness at 9
o'clock last night of F. j. Mccormick, Il
clerk, necessitating the immediate serv-
ices of DR.. Knapp. The patient was
better this morning, and was able to be
up and around. Mr.. Mccormick is q
New York man who has been out here
for a year, and is not in good health.

SHOT BY A POLICEMAN.
Pablo Martinez Fatally Wounded by An
tonic 0rtega Last Night Self Defense
Olaimed-0rtega Under Arrest,

Last night about 10 o'clock, Pablo
Martinez, living on upper Palace we
nue., was shot and mortally wounded by
a policeman named Antonio Ortega.
The affair was brought about in this
wise.
Pablo Martinez was drunk and rails
ing particular Cain, beating his wife
and soaring the wits out of the neigh
bors. A boy was sent down town post
haste for help, and two policemen, An
tonic Ortega and Charles Wheeler went
to the house, Ortega arriving on the
scene of trouble a little in advance of
Wheeler. When near the door Marti-
nez rushed out at Ortega, who pulled a
revolver and fired, the ball entering
Martinez left side and passing out at
the back near the backbone.
Ortega was arrested a few moments
after the shooting by Deputy Sheriff HUI
Der and lodged in jail, where he was
seen this morning by a New MEXICAN
reporter and asked how the shooting
occurred. His story, as interpreted by
Mrs. Huber, is substantially as follows:
Last night a boy came to me and
said that Pablo Martinez was whipping
his wife; for me to come and help. |
went to the house, when Martinez ran
out of the door, striking at me with a
knife in his hand. l could not see how
big the knife was, but he had a knife.
I pulled my pistol and shot, and Mar
tinez fell down. The woman (Mrs. Mar
tinez) went to him quick and took the
knife away, SO that when 1 got to him
he had no knife, no nothing. That is
ALL"
The story of the shooting told by Mrs.
Martinez differs from that told by Or
tega, in that she declares Martinez had
no knife for the reason that she had
everyone in the house locked up. Earlier
in the evening he had gotten hold of q
pair of scissors, but they had been taken
away before the police arrived.
Immediately after the shooting Dr.
Harroun was called to care for the
wounded man. After making ar
/ examination of the wound, he pro
nounced 1t dangerous in the extreme
and no hopes of Martinez recovery arr
entertained.
