ROUGH RIDERS REUNION.
A Large Attendance Expected-Grea Fire
Works Display.

The reports received from rough riders
living in New Mexico, Arizona, Colo
RADIO, Oklahoma, Indian territory and
Texas; official estimates received by the
transportation officials as well as indivi-
dual reports from the advertising and
printing committees demonstrate that
the attendance at the coming reunion
will be larger than has been anticipated
by even the most enthusiastic.
To entertain this immense throng, to
provide suitable and proper amusement,
for the honored guests OF the city and
the rough riders themselves, the com
mittee on arrangements is sparing nc
expenditure. In fact Las Vegas pro
poses to set the pace" for all future
reunions and gatherings of this kind In
the southwest.
The committee on arrangements ma
closed a contract with Payne's Fire
works company of New York for the
grandest pyrotechnic display ever seer
west of Chicago. Nothing in this line
witnessed at the Worlds fair will sur
pass the entertainment which the pa
triotic people of Las Vegas will offer fol
the immense throng which will attenc
the reunion. Among the features viii
be a reproduction of the charge OF the
| rough riders up San Juan hill. Immense
| fire portraits of General Leonard WOOD
| and Colonel Roosevelt will be shown.

The surveyor general of the territory in
1875 recommended that the grant be
confirmed. The surveyor general in
1886 recommended that congress
grant to original settlers and their des-
pendants on the Socorro grant an equit'
able claim to the lands actual
ly occupied and used for tillage
and pasturage prior to February 2
ls4s. Congress took no action on those
recommendations. The survey in 1877
set the area of the grant at s43,959.5(
acres but the plaintiffs claim that II
should be greater. All claims and al
owners to the land are such by per
mission and consent of the petitioners
excepting Wilson Waddingham, Mar
tin B. Hayes, Felipe Peralta, and Tomas
Cordoba who lay claim to certain por-
tions of the grant. On the grant are
situated the towns and settlements o.
San Antonio, Limitar, San Lorenzo
Luis Lopez Bosquesito and San Pedro.
Judge Warren, G. Fl. Gildersleeve and

BIG COPPER SALE
A Group Of Claims in Grant County
Sold for a Quarter of a Million
Dollars.
CONCENTRATOR TO Be BUILT
New York Capital Eager for Investment
in New Mexico Properties Despite
Colorado Experts Who Report
Adversely.

w. A. Tenant, who returned last
week from New York, will this after
noon leave for Hanover, Grant county,
on mining business, accompanied by
Charles Scheurich. While in New York
Mr.. Tenant sold for $250,OO0 the Bra
gaw-Potter group of IA copper and gold
| claims al Hanover, which he recently
bought, to Charles W. White and Henry
Cummins, both eastern capitalists who
will develop the property to its fullest
extent. Either a large smelter or a
| concentration will at once be erected on
the property. Mr.. Tenant goes to
Hanover to make arrangements for that
purpose. Twenty-Five men have already
been put to work on the property. A
cross-cut on one of the claims at the
depth of 60 feet has laid bare 10 feet of
solid ore and the other wall has not
been reached as yet. Experts claim
that the ore body will be found to be 80
feet thick. Work will be pushed on an
extensive scale. Mr.. Tenant says that
he never before found so large an
amount of capital in the east anxious
to invest in New Mexico mines. The
day has passed when Denver experts, by
their unfavorable, %prejudiced reports,
could hurt New Mexico mining inter
ests. Mr.. Tenant orders all OF his
machinery from Chicago instead of from
Denver on account of the unkindly
feeling existing against New Mexico by
Colorado mining experts. There are
1900 men in the Hanover section al
present, said Mr.. Tenant, and as soon
as the railroad reaches the camp, which
will be in about a month, many new
properties will be added to the long list
of producers.
Mr.. Tenant has several other deals
under advisement and as he is interested
in Taos county and the Cochiti, as vel
as in Grant county, they will be Of
Importance to New Mexico mining in
forests.

SOIL FOR BEET SUGAR.
Ideal Conditions at Santa Fe, But Industry
Has to Be Built Up,

Moriz Weinrich, expert in the employ
of the American Beet Sugar company.
arrived in Denver from Santa Fe, where
he has been making Investigations into
the character of the soil with reference
to the cultivation of sugar beets, also
the other conditions which would make
the erection of a plant either favorable
or unfavorable. The data he has Sc
cured he will submit to his company
when he returns to New York. Mr..
Weinrich has been in the west for about
six weeks, and before coming to New
Mexico he spent considerable time on
the same mission in the vicinity of Fort
Collins and in Morgan county.
MI. Weinrich refused to say what his
recommendations will be with refer
ence to the question OF building a plant,
but he speaks very freely regarding the
general information gathered. He spoke
to the Denver News reporter as follows:
II tiId the soil about Santa Fe," said
the expert, 'about as fine for the pur-
pose as any l have ever struck, but l
consider the Colorado beet if properly
cared for, good enough for anyone.
There are so many things to be taken
into consideration. In New Mexico the
whole industry would have to be built
up from the very bottom, while there is
more of an advantage in Colorado. The
difficulty comes largely in teaching the
farmer how to raise the beet, for 1t is a
matter of hand labor to the greatest ex-
tent. In New Mexico there is the ad-
vantage of having the cheap native
labor, and there is also a very fine grade
of lime stone to be found. This stone
furnishes two products, lime and car
bonic acid, which are both used in the
process of manufacture

A TRAGIC DEATH.
Hon. Jacinto Armijo Killed Himself With
a Razor,

At Las Cruces Hon. Jacinto Armijo
ended his life last week by cutting
his throat with a razor. His son Isidoro
was shaving himself and left a razor
lying on the liable while he went to get
some water. When he returned he
found the father covered with blood
and slashing his throat with the razor.
Doctors Cowan Ruidoner and Lane
were summoned and made every effort
to save his life but death resulted Fri
day. Mr.. Armijo was a prominent Re-
publican and q member of the board OF
regents of the agricultural college.
The cause for the suicide is supposed
to be illness. Several months ago he
fell out of a buggy and injured a leg.
He has never been quite well and under
went two surgical operations. Smallpox
recently entered his home and his
youngest daughter died from the i'll
ness. Mr.. Armijo was aged SO years.

REPORT FROM soHURMAN.
Filipinos Will Declare For the United
States.

Washington, April 4.-In accordance
partment, the Philippines commission
has now resumed full activity. The de-
partment was notified today by cable
gram from Mr.. Schurman, president of
the Philippine commission, that the
expected proclamation would be issued
today He stated that the document
would be about 1,500 words in length.
DR.. Schurman says that after
months personal observation and in
terviews with different classes of peo-
pie, he finds that the insurrection had
its origin and strength in the Tagalog
provinces around Manila. The remain
ing provinces of north and south Lu-
zon are peopled by different races, and
the rest of the archipelago are not nat
ural allies of the Tagalogs, but un-
friendly rivals. During the months
while the treaty of peace was being ne
gotiated at Paris, the Tagalogs sent
detachments of from fifty to 200 men
to all the other provinces to seize gov
ernments as robbers hold up trains
The liberty of the population was con-
strained, and supremacy was enforced,
as there were no American forces pres
ent to expel the Tagalogs. He says
the recent victories have had a good
effect everywhere. With a growth of
general feeling of security the popula-
ton will doubtless declare for the
United States.
THE Philippine people," says DR..
Schurman, seem discouraged by the
valorous, swift and irresistible move
ments of the American troops, against
which their elaborate defensive works
were useless

Filipino Junta Discovers Intrigues
Between Americans and Vatican.

Hongkong, April 4-The Filipino
junta has issued another of the extra
ordinary statements which have been
features of the newspaper campaign
directed from here by the agents of
Aguinaldo In the present instance
the rebel agents claim to have obtained
their information" from American
sources at Manila. They assert the ex-
istence of mysterious intrigues" be-
tween the vatican. Major General Wes-
ley Merritt, President Mckinley, Major
General Elwell S. Otis and Archbishop
Ireland, leading to the latter's journey
to Rome" Continuing, the Filipino
statement says:
"The Paulist fathers actions prior
to the fall of Manila were suspicious.
Now, in conjunction with Archbishop
Nozaledas, who is intimate with Gen
eral Otis, they are endeavoring to pro-
cure the former ascendancy of the
church in the Philippines; hence they
are sustaining General Otis, who, as a
Catholic has refused to obey the
Washington orders and transfer the
command of his force to General Law
ton, because he wishes to assist the
church secure its real estate. The
Paulist policy is more subtle than that
of the Jesuits. and unless they are
promptly recalled they will work fur
ther mischief. The Philippines are a
valuable hunting ground for the church,
hence the Titanic efforts to maintain
it's supremacy"
