MILL MEN
ON A STRIKE
AIamogordo Lumbermen
Want Higher Wages.
TROUBLE is EXPECTED
Although Railway Officials And Others
Say That ALI Is Serene at the
Camps And Assert That No Fears
Of RiOting Are Entertained By
Them.

From $50 to 200 laborers empl Dyed
at the AlsmoRordo Lumber company's
mill and in the woods getting out tim
Der are on strike for higher wages
and business in that vicinity Is thereby
stagnated.
The men went out yesterday. A de-
mand was made for higher wages and
shorter hours which WAS not acceded
to and the men quit work.
The trouble originated in the big
saw mill, where about 125 men are en-
ployed at wages of 81 so per day for
eleven hours work. They asked for 81
q day or 81 so and board. When their
request WAS not granted a strike was
decided upon as the proper course to
pursue. The wood choppers and 9TH
ers at work on the outside also had q
grievance and quit and the men en-
gagged in laying the water pipes
for the new water works decided to
aid the:strikers and went out.
Trouble had been brewing among
the mill men for several months. A
Ia Dor organization was formed some
time ago and the employees then made
up their minds to demand higher
wages and strike if they did not get
them as sOon as warm weather COM
menced. Some time ago, an advance
of Is cents per day was asked and
given but the men were not satisfied
with that and continued to complain.
No serious trouble is expected to re-
suit from the strike as the men are all
and good natured and it is
believed that their intention is simply
to go else where and procure work at

A MOTIVE
FOR MURDER
Came to Light In the District
Clerks Office
THE FIRST MRS. RICH
Was Divorced By Her husband And the
Second Wife Was Led to Believe
That the Divorce Was Not Legal
And That Her Own Marriage Was
a MOckery.

George L. Rich, father of the I'm.
fortunate young Juarez merchant who
! was shot and killed, will remain In
| the city several days to wind up the es-
| tate of his son.
Deceased owned considerable prop
erty in Juarez including the Interna.
tiOnal Grocery company. This will
continue in operation for the present.
The inquest over the remains OF the
young man takes place at o'clock this
afternoon before Justice Spencer. The
ante norton statement OF Rich will
probably then be read and the widow
placed on the witness stand to testify.
She is the only person thought to
know anything about the killing and
the accusations made against her by
her dying husband will have the effect
of making her evidence extremely in
teresting,
A new light was thrown on the mys-
terious case today when it WAS learned
that Rich had been married once be-
fore and procured q divorce from his
wife in 1893 in this city while both
were residents of Mexico and then
went to Chicago and married the wo-
man who survives as his widow.
1t is doubtful if the divorce was leg
al as the parties were non residents
when it was procured, and it is believ-
recently, for little over week ago
she paid a visit to the district clerks
Office and cornered Ike Alderete about
the matter. She said she was friend
of Mrs Rich's and wanted Information.
She talked with him for an hour and
appeared to be greatly disturbed
though perfectly rational.
She wanted to know. if the divorce
was illegal but declined to give her
name. The clerk told her that he
thought it was not and referred her to
a}law firm for advice.
That night Rich was wounded in
Juarez.
THE DIVORCE.
Rich's former wife was a Mexican
girl named Maria. He applied for a
divorce from her October 2, 1898. He
charged her with unfaithfulness while
he was in Chicago the previous month.
and fedora Guerra Carabsjal, Is
year old girl, testified against her.
IS SHE CRAZY?
George L Rich, father of deceased,
declined yesterday to permit the HER
AID to publish his son 8 ante norton
statement. He said in his opinion Mrs
Rich, Jr., is demented and had been so
for two years,
81 have long known that she was
falling" said he, but never knew that
she would prove dangerous. My son
left home when he was II years of age
and married this woman in Chicago in
1893. 1 never saw her until she was
pointed out to me today"
1t is conceded that Mrs. Rich was
addicted to the use of intoxicants and
under the influence of alcohol often be-
came violent and aggressive. When
she came to this city as yellow haired
bride almost her first act was to get
drunk at a party.
In case the divorce of Mrs. Rich
number one is not legal and binding it
is presumed that Mrs. Rich plumber
