AGUINAlOO NO HERO.

John Barrett. former United States
minister to Siam, delivered an adj
dress at Seattle one night last week
On the subject OF Oriental Commerce
from a Pacific Coast Standpoint"
Before entering into the subject of his
address he referred to q recent speech
of Congressman Lentz In New York,
in the ours of which he is reported
to have said: IF you murder Aguin-
aldo you destroy one of the heroes of
the world" Mr.. Barrett said:
81 would ask Mr.. Lentz how he
makes such heroism consistent with
the facts that Aguinaldo in 1896 ac-
cepted n bribe Of 800. 900 from the
Spanish government to leave the
Philippines and forsake the cause for
which Mr.. Lentz thinks he has fought
so unselfishly; that he appropriated
most OF the money to his own use
and was sued by some of his fellow
patriots, both of which are matters
of recorded history; that he refused
To exchange Lieut.. Gilmore and fel-
lOw-prisoners Of the navy when he
was asked to do so as a matter of
humanity by Admiral Dewey; that
he permitted and favored the publ
cation of papers and circulars that
He'd about America and Americans,
and that he persistently misled his
people by telling them that Admiral
Dewey recognized Filipino independ-
ence, when he knew that the admiral
had never done 40 in any way what
ever. II all this makes a hero, Con-
gresham Lentz's standards cannot
be those OF American people. Aguin-
aldo IL clever, shrewd and has execu-
tive ability. | once sympathized with
him, but when [ had become person.
ally acquainted with all these facts |
have mentioned. my views were or
rected. Perhaps If Mr.. Lentz had
made n study OF Aguinaldo's career
he might think otherwise.
In travelling across the continent
Mr.. Barrett said he found, talking
with all classes of men, a unanimity
of opinion in favor Of carrying the
war to n successful and inevitable
The only divergence OF
opinion was found in the matter OF
the final disposition Of the islands.
Congressman Lentz Is not the only
one who has been making extrava-
giant statements regarding the char
acter of Aguinaldo, but he probably
takes the cake in that line. A num-
Der OF little Americans" have COM
pared him to George Washington,
Simon Bolivar and other liberators.
Ii IL refreshing To get a good idea OF
the Tagalo leader from one who has
been there" and knows what he is
talking about. Lentz il working his
laws overtime for political effect and
it is very doubtful whether he be-
lieves what he says himself. But the
congressman must follow out the
program. which il TO talk anti-ex-
pansion in the east and free silver In
the west. Such In the courage and
consistency of Bryan and his lieuten-
ants.

SAYS He WAS DECEIVED.
Councilman Trujillo States That He Was
Not Party to Bargain.

Councilman Climaco Truiillo today
made an affidavit before Jose Sena,
clerk of the supreme court, and brought
it to the New Mexican this afternoon
with a request for publication. Coming
late and being lengthy only the sub
stance OF it can go today as a matter of
news.
In the document Councilman Trujillo
emphatically denies that he was party
to compromise or to any deal to elect
the city marshal; and he voted for the
nominee because he had been informed
that it was the wish of the majority of
the people to effect a compromise. Mr..
Trujillo says in this affidavit that he
was ignorant of the fact that the city
could not legally award contract TO
him. and that he was basely deceived
and tricked and ''wshes the public to
know that there is no stain on HIM"
that he earns his own living and that~lt
is not necessary for him to be paid for,
doing duty the people imposed upon
him at the polls. Councilman Trujillo,
in this affidavit, says he refuses to ac-
cept the appointment as street sprinkler
and asks that the mayor appoint some
one in his stead.

to murder Lee and Gilllland and other
murderers were put in We will show
that they refused Lee a hearing, wait

ing that Attorney Fall had gone with

rected how Kearney was killed and Lee

top, but agreed to desist on condition
that Garrett should leave and tell the

A DARING ROBBERY
A Union Pacific Passenger Train
Held Up By Robbers Near
Wilcox, Wyo,
EXPRESS CAR WAS BLOWN UP
The Engineer Was Severely Wounded
The Robbers Escaped to the Mountains
They Obtained But Little Re-
ward-A Posse in Pursuit.

Omaha, Neb., June 2.-The Union
Pacific officials furnish the following
account of the robbery of west bound
train No. which left this city yester-
day morning: ''Just before daylight
this morning in the midst of drench-
ing rain, the train was held up just be-
yond Wilcox, Wyo. Robbers blew up
the express car with dynamite, severely
wounding the engineer and then es-
capped to the mountains. According to
the officials of the express company the
robbers obtained only nominal reward
for their daring crime. A posse under
the command of the sheriff of Carbon
county is in pursuit, and officers are
confident of capturing them. The
robbers boarded the train at
Wilcox at 2:09 a. m. AS the train
reached the bridge mile west Of Will
cox one of the robbers crawled into the
cab and at the point of a gun ordered
Engineer Jones to pull across the bridge
and stop. Meanwhile others were at
work in the express car. just as the
engine pulled off the bridge there was a
tIcmeluOuS oAplOSlOl, SCdUttlluS uIc
express car hundred feet in every di-
rection. The end of the mail car was
blown in and several stringers blown out
of the bridge. Engineer Jones was
slightly injured by the flying debris.
The robbers rifled the safe, which was
blown open by the explosion, took the
contents, signalled their confederate on
the engine, and before the passengers
and train crew were aware of just what
had happened, they were off for the
mountains.
1t required two hours to clear the
wreck away so that the train could pro-
ceed to Medicine Bow, the next station
from which report was sent and
the sheriff notified. With posse he
started in pursuit of the robbers. The
soft ground caused by the rain will aid
in tracing the robbers. 1t is not posi-
lively known just how many there are
in the party but as only four were seen
by the train men it is believed that the
number constitutes part.
