Gusymas and Mr., Hunt says that the

Guaymas as they are at San Francisco.

The road bed of the Santa Fe for a
distance eleven miles north and east
of Albuquerque has been ballasted
with gravel secured from large deposits
near Algodones. The-gravel is mix
ture OF coarse sand, pebbles and small
boulders and packs solidly. The
stretch of track that is graveled has
been raised three feet higher than the
old track and the ties are placed on top
of substratum of the material. The
road bed is being widened the entire
distance by large force of graders,
who keep ahead of the gravelinR gang
for distance of three or four miles.
The stretch of new track is pretty
sight, the crawling extending two
feet on each side of the ties An
average of 100 car loads of gravel is
used each day.
Engineer J. T. Richmond and Fire
man Fl. r. Morrison, both of the South

SOME DOUBT 1T,
The Fast Trains on the 6. H. & S. A.
and Texas & Pacific are Deve1-
oping a Great Deal of Discus
sion.

In railroad circles yesterday the pro-
posed fast trains on the G. 81. 81 S. A.
and Texas g. Pacific was the topic of
conversation. 1t was expected that
news would reach here from headquar-
ters regarding them but it did not ar
rive.
When interviewed on the subject q
Texas q Pacific official said: Il can
only say that l heard that the Texas
& Pacific road was oicg to put on
fast train to meet the Southern Pacific
fast mail train at this point. l do not
think, however, that any fast trains
will be put on until next fall. The
yellow fever will soon develop in the
south and people will not'care to travel
south and take the risk of contracting
the disease. Early next fall, however.
expect to see the fast trains go n, but
they may be put in a short while"
A Southern Pacific official seemed to
think that the fast traif Q would be put
very shortly. 1--WE have a contract, !"
he said, ito get the mail from New
hours and if they fulfill that contract
they will either have to put on fast
train or increase the speed of the pres
emit trains. It would be great thing
for Ell PasO if the trains were put on
and 1 sincerely trust they will"
Many others interviewed seemed to
doubt whether the trains would be put
on before fall. The lblank spaces on
the time card they consider no evil
dence of the trains going on. They
say that in event of the fast trains be
ing put on evil time card would be
issued and the mere fact OF the blank
spaces being Left they consider OF no
significance whatever.

END Of MURDON INQUEST.
CATARRHAL PNEUMONIA CAUSE
OF DEATH.
No Testimony Given as to Who Admin
istered the Anaesthetic Supposed to
Have Caused the Disease.

The coroner's jury in the case of Will
liam j. Murdon yesterday afternoon
brought in verdict that death was due
to catarrhal pneumonia. There was no
evidence duplicating any one in the adj
ministering of the anaesthetic that Is
supposed to have brought on the penu-
monia and the Jurors made no reference
in their verdict to any other cause of
death than pneumonia. The jury con-
sisted of S. Kubey, E. o. White,
George Dillingham;, William Saw lge,
Henry Giles, w. Il. Bvens
In addition to the testimony of DR..
Grossman reported in yesterdays Star,
DR.. Yule and DR.. Clark were called end
gave testimony.
DR.. Yule testified that the cause of
death was catarrhal pneumonia. He
performed an autopsy on the day when
Murdon died and was of the opinion
that the disease was brought on by the
administration of an anesthtic. Muir
don told me that he had taken ether"
said DR.. Yule. "He said he had gone to
another dentist after leaving DIR. Gross
man and that he had got ether. 1 asked
him who the dentist was and he said
the ether was given by some one in the
Progress block. OF course 1t Is possible
that he would have fallen i'll without
having taken ether, but in my opinion
considering the history of the case, the
ether caused the disease. If ether had
been given in the hospital, with prop
er operating table and proper attend
ants, all might have been we'll A great
deal depends on how the ether was CIV
en-, whether the patient was sitting UP
or lying down and whether he was al
lowed to go out Immediately after TAX
ing the ether"
DIR. Clark, a dentist having an office
in the Progress block, was called. He

Murdon. He was positive that he had
never seen the dead soldier and had
never treated him.
DR.. Clark stated that he had not ad.
ministered chloroform or ether to any
soldier at all in his office. He did moi
consider it dangerous to do so bu
thought it advisable to have a third

The AEOLIAN

There are still great many people who
are unfamiliar with the Aeolian-who don't
know what it is. In an indefinite sort Of
way they have an idea that it is "a kind
of mechanical instrument that you wind
up or play by turning a crank" Very
naturally, with such an impression, they
harbor decided prejudice against it, Now,
The Aeolian isn't mechanical.
You don't wind it up, and
1t isn't played by means of crank.
PADEREWSKl, in endorsing the Aeoian,
writes:
1T combines all the effects which can
be produced by the most skillful manipu-
lation of a grand organ with those Of an
orchestra. ! consider your instrument not
only a source of delight to music-lovers,
but also benefit to art itself"
ALBERT ROSS PARSONS, President Of
the College of American Musicians, says {:
"The Aeolian is not merely a musical
luxury. 1t Is an accurate educator of the
highest order, since it opens the way for
the introduction into the homes Of the
world of every species of instrumental and
vocal music, without the least technical
preparation or labor. The Aeolian affords
a grand orchestra for every home"
