The Deming Headlig is one
of the Philippine insurgent SYM
pathizers, and was cheored up
when Aguinaldo telegraphed that
falsehood to London that his army
was attacking the Americans lines
at Manila. Albuquerque Citizen.
No, we are not in sympathy with
the Philippine insurgents any
more than the Citizen is. But we
do not believe in making a public
ass OF ourself in order to throw
cheap slobber over an administra-
ton that is fostering trusts and
monopolies throughout the United
States and is only fighting these
Filipinos in order that some trusts
and monopolies may have more
room in the end for their schemes.
Every fair-minded American well
knows that we have no use for the

The weather for the week end.
ing June S continued dry and
windy with unusually cool nights
which brought frosts in many To-
calities of the higher attitudes.
Some tender garden plants, AS
transplauted tomatoes and cabbage,
were slightly nipped, but the inju-
ry was by no means extensive
Rains have threatened over the ter
ritory generally, bat only a few sta
tions report more than trace.
In the vicinity of Las Vegas, and
to the eastward, the drouth seems
to he more severe, as there is very
little water in the rivers, and many
report the bitches to be entirely
dry. However, water seems to be
still abundant in the lower Pecos
and the San Juan country.
The cool nights and lack of
rains have tended still further to
put crops back, and with few ex-
oeptions reports indicate a very
slow progress. Some farmers are
still planting corn, but as rule
all planting is finished, or discon-
tinued on account of dry weather.
As far north as Albuquerque they
are cutting the first crop of alfalfa;
as u rule the crop is fair, although
in some sections reported much
below the average. Stock improve
very slowly as range grass is pref
ty well dried up. Planters of the
lower Penasco are busily engaged
in putting their sugar beats, and
with the increased acreage the
prospects are most encouraging.
The following remarks are ex-
tracted from the reports of cores
pondents:
Gallinas Spring--Jas. K. Whit
morc-Continued dry and windy,
grass and water getting scarce for
stock. Irrigation water also hard
ly sufficient. Higher temperature,
90; lowest, 40; no rain.
Tularosa-Frank /. Otis
Crops growing well, although
there has been no rain to date.
Heavy wind storm on the 23rd
blew much fruit from the trees.
Nevertheless good crop remains.
Apricots are ripening; cherries and
strawberries about gone. The first
cutting of alfalfa is yielding we'll,
although about two weeks late.

the sand, and later, in pumping
the water his attention was attract

man drove pump down some Is
feet to the snme strata of sand, and
he too was able to pump out the
shining PARTICLES. Everybody in
that locality was soon wild with
excitement and began stalking off
mining claims. Subsequent reports
from the assays were favorable and
the excitement grew accordingly.
Up to yesterday there had been
over 200 claims located. The men
who are making the assays tele.
graphed Wednesday TO Portales

HATFIELD'S FORT TAKEN.

WORK OF A POSSE OF CITIZENS.

Surprised in Their Stronghold by West
Virginia sherin-They Are to Be Sent
to Kentucky TO Be Tried For an Old
Mccoy Murder-Band About Broken
DISCRIMINATION Found in Fort.
WILLIAMSON, W. Va. (speciaD.-The old
Hatfield fort, which has become famous as
the stronghold OF the Hatfield clan, was
captured and Devil Anse" Hatfield, Bob
Hatfield and John Dingass we're made pris-
oners.
East-bound passenger train No. u, which
passed here about noon, carried on 1t Sher-
liz Henderson and a party OF ten officers
from Logan County. When 1t reached this
place 1t was quietly boarded by Deputy
Sherlffs Peck and Klag Of this county,
Prosecuting Attorney Peck. OF Logan
County, and two others. The party were
very quiet and undemonstratiye and the
fact they were O posse In pursuit OF any
one was known by very few persons on the
train or along the road.
They reached Wharncliffe, their objec-
tive point, thirty miles east OF here, about
1.90 o'clock and at once fastened to the
fort short distance away. All in the party
are determined men and they were we'll
armed.
The fort vas at once surrounded and each
opening was covered by Winchester held
by a man whom the Hatfelds have sworn
to kill. The occupants Of the fort showed
fight, but their surprise was complete and
they finally surrendered without any one
being Injured.
Inside the old fort, which has shielded
the Hatfelds for 80 many years, were found
ammunition and provisions enough to sup.
ply company OF troops.
"Devll Anse" Is the father Of "Cap." He
won his title when he led the party which
shot three Of the McCoys across the border
In Kentucky and burned their bodies at a
stake. Devil Anse" was never before ar
rested. He has more than score OF times
led his kin In battle againt the authorities
both Of Kentucky and West Virginia.
Captain Hatfield was in the fort a short
time before the party reached it, but was
not found at the time. Dingass Is Bob
Hatfeld's son-in-law, and Bob Is a son Of
"Devil Anse" and brother OF Cap and Elias,
Jr. Bob and Anse are wanted In Kentucky
on old murder charges connected with the
Hatfleld-M Mccoy feud OF years ago. They
will be taken there and will probably be
convicted and hanged. Their capture
breaks the backbone Of the band, and 1t
Is thought that the arrest OF "Cap" and
Troy, the young boy, will be easv. With
these two captured the band, which for
years has been a menace to good order In
this part Of the State, will be completely
broken m

THE TARTAR'S DETENTION.

WASHINGTON, D. c. (speclaD.-The de.
tention Of the transport Tartar at Hong
Kong by the British authorities was official
ly reported to the Secretary OF War by
General Otis and Captain Metcalf. OF the
Kansas Regiment. In his cabIeEram Gen.
eral Otis says that the Quartermaster Of
the Tartar went to Hong Kong to dock the
vessel for repairs; The dispatches follow:
"HoNG KoSG, September 11.-Beltish au-
thor.ties refuse to clear Tartar because
overcrowded, authorize 824.
MANILA, September 1S.-Tartar sent
Hong Kong to dock, as requested oY Major
Long; no dock largs enough at Nagasakl.
She has capacity for 1145 men and Ill

and sixty.one cabin passengers. On her
trip from San Francisco she carried COM
fortably 1145 men and flftY.ave cabin pas
seDgers. " OTIS"
Secretary Root though the matter OF sut-
ficient Importance to take to the President
for consideration. After Secretary Roots
return from the Whlte House he had con-
ference with the Commissioner OF Naviga-
tion, and also decided to take up the mat
ter OF the Tartar with the State Depart
ment, with a view to having the ship cleared
at Hong Kong. ......''..
A private cable message from Hong Kong
says that complaint was mads BY the 400
discharged regulars on board the Tartar OF
overcrowding, whersupou clearance was
refused. The Twentieth Kansas Voluntee
Infantry, with General Funston, are
aboard the Tartar. but. 1t Is understood
that the volunteers made no complaint as
they are anxious to proceed homsward.
The Tartar was chartered by the United
States, and Is owed by the Canadian Pa
ciac Steamship Company. Sue sails under
the British flag. Tee British Consul can
determine whether she complies with the.
British navigation laws, aud II sue does not
be has authority to cause her to unload.
It was stated at the War Department
that the Tartar matter had been referred
10 Ambassador Choats, which makes an
International question OF 1t. The conten-
zion Of the War Department is that, not
wIthstanding that tho Tartar files the Brit
lsh flag, the assumption OF Br itish author
ity over her Is unauthoclzs |, as she Is
chartered by the United states Govern
nent.
