Murders and Criminal Gases That Interest
ed Santa Fe People.

(From the New Mexican, Nov. 2s, lS49. }
MURDERS AND CRIMINAL CASES
The caption of this article shows the
unpleasant and melancholy feelings
which falls to our lot to record. During
the latter part of last month an affray
took place in this city between a Mr..
Wheeler, latterly Of st. Louis, and Cap
tain Alexander Papin, formerly Of the
above place. The particulars of this at
fair run thus: A few days after the ar
wrote several notices and posted them
up around town, which bore upon their
face the representation of false state
ments as emanating from Papin. One of
those documents were shown to Papin,
which he tore down, and entered the
store of Messrs. Austin & Daulton for
the purpose Of reading 1t, when Wheel
er followed hun in. Captain Papin re-
marked that any person using his name
In that style was a damned rascal, and
turned around and asked Wheeler If
that was his signature. Wheeler re-
marked that 1t was, at which time Cap
tain Papin raised yard stick, and had
scarcely made the blow, when Wheeler
drew pistol and shot him just above
the right temple. Captain Papin ex-
pired two days afterward, and was
buried with military honors.
Wheeler Is now in our prison walls,
enfettered with chains.
At the last term of our court A. ].
Sims was convicted of the murder OF
Johnson Jackson. He Is to be executed
on the Goth Of the present month.
We regret to state that Mr.. John Ad-
ans was murdered at Pena Blanca
few days since by party Of Mexicans.
The principal murderer has not as yet
been arrested.
Charles Wagner, the murderer of Eb
stein, whose case was to be tried at
Taos last week, was postponed until the
next term of court on account of very

DISTRICT COURT NOTES.
Violators of Sunday Closing Law Indicted
-Mininp Snits Continnad.

In the territorial district court this
morning the grand jury reported 1877 in
dictments for violations of the liquor
and Sunday closing laws of the terri
tory, but the names are withheld until
the persons accused are placed under
arrest. Contrary to expectation, the
grand jury was not discharged this
forenoon, and five or six more indlct-
ments will probably be returned in the
morning.
In the cases of the New Mexico Min
ing Company vs.. James M. Lucas ct al.
and George s. Morrison, actions brought
to eject the defendants from certain
mining claims on the Ortiz mine grant
and to recover damages, the plaintiff
company was granted leave to file an
amended complaint, and the defendants
were granted leave to file an amended
answer This action will probably car
ry the cases over until the next term.
The Galisteo Gold Mining Company
this afternoon filed suits for ejectment
dIlu udAld6CS d6dlllSI HCoISC p. VAOAAA-
son and James M. Lucas. These actions
are similar in their nature to those Of
the New Mexico Mining Company
against the same defendants.
The case Of the Territory VS.. Tomas
Dominguez, indicted for murder, was
continued until next term on motion Of
the district attorney on account Of the
absence Of an important witness.
The jury lists from San Juan county
have been received by the clerk Of the
district court. and he has already issued
the usual venires. The term Of the dis
trict court for San Juan county will
open on April 16.

BIG IMPROVEMENTS
A Forty-Stamp Mill, a Custom
Mill and a Large Power
Plant,
AMIZETT WILL ENJOY BOOM
DR.. Brandreth, of New York, Is In New
Mexico to Make Arrangements for I'm
provements On Taos County Min
ing Properties.

DR.. William Brandreth, of Brandretn
pill fame, a New York capitalist, ex-
mayor and resident of the town Of sing
Sing, on the beao,-sul Hudson, whose
office is at II Broadway, New York
City, arrived in the capital last ni"ht.
He is interested in mining properties In
Taos county. and left this forenoon for
Amizett to select a site for a forty
stamp mill, which Is to be erected in the
Arroyo Hondo district this spring by
! the capitalists with whom he Is inter.
ested in the Fraser and five other
groups Of mining property in the AR.
royo Hondo district The Fraser group
of eleven claims last fall passed into the
hands of these capitalists. Mr.. William
Fraser retaining an interest in them
and the New Yorkers furnishing the
capital which Is developing the mines.
which promise to become big producers.
| DR.. Brandreth said during the winter
fine body Of gold ore, II feet thick, was
opened on the Cyclone. 1t averages $40
in gold to the ton, and carries some sill.
ver On the Empire a large body of
| copper ore was developed. 1t carries
per cent copper, 81 gold and ounces Of
silver to the ton. Five excellent lead
groups, four miles south of Amizett
containing twenty-eight claims were
also developed extensively, and machin-
cry will be put up this summer to treat
the ore.
DR.. Brandreth has far-reaching plans
for the future of the district. This sum-
mer yet he and his associates intend to
erect large power plant at Amizett to
furnish electric power to other mining
properties at that place and nearby
camps. They will also erect large Gus
tom mill in addition to the forty y-stamp
mill to be built at once DR.. Brandreth
speaks well Of the mineral resources Of
Taos county, and believes that the Cop.
per Hill properties, In which he has no
interest, are magnificent proposition,
that will be big producer.
J. K. Turner, manager of the Copper
Hill Mining Company, arrived from
Rinconada last evening to meet DR..
Brandreth, and accompanied him to
Amizett this forenoon. Mr.. Turner is
mining engineer, and Is being consulted
by DR.. Brandreth In regard to the ex.
tensive Improvements contemplated for
this summer at Amizett. Mr.. Fraser al
so came down from Taos county to meet
DR.. Brandreth, and accompanied him
north this forenoon. Mr. Fraser located
the Fraser group, and has successfully
operated the same.
From Amizett DR.. Brandreth will go
to Denver to purchase the machinery
for the forty-stamp mill, and from there
will return to his home at Sing Sing.

Temporarily Insane.

Daniel Smith. of Cambridge, Mo-,
jumped from train No. on the Santa
Fe- Pacific railroad at Ell Rito, six miles
east Of Laguna. Although the train was
running forty-five miles an hour, Smith
was not hurt. He roamed over the hills
and mountains the whole night, and
was found by section men the next
noon, who took him to Laguna. Smith,
with his two small children, was bound
for Fresno, Cal. The altitude had af-
fected his mind. and this caused his
strange action.

GREAT REPUBLIC MINING COMPANY.
Active Mining Operations Will Be Prose-
cuted In Santa Fe Canon,

The Great Republic Mining Company,
recently incorporated by Frank A. Man
zanares, Thomas Rose and Robert l.. M.
Ross, of Las Vegas, and o. B. Steen, of
Santa Fe, has bonded the patented Mon
tezuma mine at Monument Rock, up
Santa Fe canon about nine miles, of
Matt Breden and others, and Mr.. Steen
this morning sent a force of men up to
the property to begin active develop
ment work. Edward Farlane, who op-
crates an assay office In this city, and
enjoys the distinction of having opened
UP the famous Tom Boy mine, near Tel
luride, Colo, accompanied the party to
the mine to take personal charge Of the
work r. j. Smith will offlciate as FORE
man. Ample supplies, including tools,
powder, steel and provisions, were ta-
ken along.
In addition to the Montezuma the
company has secured control of the
Royal and Granite Chief claims on the
same ledge. John L. Zimmerman, with
three assistants, went up this morning
to survey these claims. The annual as
sessment work thereon will be done at
once. All the properties are on the Pc
cos forest reserve.
The Montezuma has been quite exten-
sively developed by means of tunnels,
shafts and crosscuts, Mr.. Breeden hav-
ing worked on the claim at intervals
for ten or twelve years, but most of the
ore he found was too low grade to yield
profits after paying costly transporta-
ton and smelling charges. Mr.. Steen
reports that the ledge is we'll defined be-
tween good walls at a depth of about
200 feet, measures from 10 to Is feet
across, and carries gold values averag-
ing $40 per ton. Some very high-grade
ore has been found, and many old tim
ers recall having picked up chunks Of
quartz showing free gold in the canon
below the present workings. The ore Is
free from copper, and yields readily to
cyanide treatment.
The ledge has been crosscut In two
places, and the ore runs about the same
at each place. Mr.. McFarlane, who has
personally made the tests, is very much
pleased with the propositlgn and pre-
diets that 1t will become a great pro-
ducer as soon as it Is properly opened
up and cyanide plant Is placed on the
ground. The tunnel will be driven and
shafts will be sunk in several places. A
cyanide mill will be erected as soon as
needed. The success of this enterprise
will prove of great immediate value to
Santa Fe, and will undoubtedly lead to
the discovery of other mines near by
that will pay under modern treatment
processes.
The directors Of the Great Republic
Mining Company will meet in Las We
gas on Saturday for the purpose Of
electing permanent officers. Hon. Frank
A. Manzanares, who recently made a
personal inspection Of the Montezuma
and it's extensions, will doubtless be
elected president of the company. He
has much confidence in the value of the
company's requirements at Monument
Rock

Speaking of the Spider and Fly company, which will appear at Dake's opera house on Saturday night, an Fl Paso paper says: "Peo- pie were turned away because the theater could not hold them. To the big house assembled the extrav- aganza seemed g scintillatingly bril- liant spectacle of bright scenes, gor- geous costumes and lots of shapely young women. The best part of it all was the cleyerness of Claire Evans, who made one of the most pleasing comedians seen on the local stage. He was really, naturally, genuinely funny.
 The transioli sister, who played tanchette, deserves great praise, her captivating air winning the aud fence at once.
 Miss Mabel Le Claire had ah op- portunity to display her rare charms of face and form as Oceana, the Mermaid Queen. Evidently her costume had been carelessly laid away in the wrong pocket of her other dress, but she wore several yards of ribbon and winsome smile winch answered just as well.
