"The yard crew and engine were
taken of the Union yard by the
Southern railroad authorities this
week, for the reason that the traffic
in the freight line at this season does
not justify keeping crew and shifter
at Union. .'-Union Tim es, July 23th.
"Union claims 1000 more popula-
tion than Darlington, and has three
cotton mills, still the A. G. l.. finds
it necessary to keep a shifting engine
aud yard crew here through the sum-
mer months. Darlington doesn't do
a great deal of blowing, but the
town is progressing and an immense
volume Of business is transacted here
annually. ."-Darlington County Mes
senger.
The Darlington Messenger is posi-
bly, not aware Of the fact that the
Union Cotton Mills, on account Of
the immense amount Of business
they do, have an engine Of their own
which handles their freight, the yard
shiftcr was employed here in addition
to this. Yes, we elbow" the horn
for Union, and we are able to back
up every blow. Union is doing her
share Of business, but we think all
will acknowledge that there is rarely
ever as much shipping during the
months Of July and August, rs these
are always considered the off months
in the years business. However, we
are glad to hear of Darlington's pros
perity. We have enough Of our own
to keep us from envying Darlington
n share.

Mayor Macbeth Young delivered
the address Of welcome to the speak
ers and visitors. We regret that our
limited space will not allow a repro
duction OF the speech in full. In
substance he declared that the words
Of welcome sprang from his heart,
and voiced similar welcome
from the citizens of his town. He
thanked the distinguished gentlemen,
the speakers who had come to talk to
our people. He called attention to
the rapid growth Of our city in eleven
years from 1,527 to $500 or more
at present.
He earnestly requested the speakers
TO avoid all vituperation or personal
abuse of men but TO give us all the light
they could upon the national issues
now agitating the mind Of the public.
Our people thought this off year be-
fore the heat OF passion was aroused
by political campaign, would be
the most appropriate time to hear
salm and intelligent discussion of

JOSE SANCHEZ
''''' HANGED
He Seemed to be the Most Uncon-
cerned Man Of Those Who
Stood on the Gallows,
HANGED WITHOUT A HITCH
The Murderer Faced Death Oomplacently
and Seemed Very Proud Of New Suit
That he Wore-The History
Of His Crime.

| Special to the New Mexican.
Silver City, N. M, July 5.--Jose San
chez was hanged here today. The
drop fell at 1890 p. M, and the body
| was cut down at 12:45' and given to
the undertaken for burial in the county
lot. Sanchez did not sleep we'll last
night as was his custom, this being the
only sign that he was realizing that
he was rapidly approaching death. He
faced death complacently on the gal
lows and was apparently very proud Of
a new suit of clothes he Wore. He ate
good dinner before walking on the
gallows.
Jose Sanchez was the first person to
be hanged in Grant county in fourteen
years. The crime for which Sanchez
paid the penalty with his life was the
murder of Catarino Almandarez,
which occurred on December g. 1900,
between Santa Rita and Georgetown.
The evidence which convicted Sanchez
was the dying statement of Amanda
rez in which he said that Sanchez had
shot him, and later identified him as
his murderer. AS further evidence of
that he had quarreled with Amanda
rez the day previous about some blan-
kets belonging to him which he claim
ed AlamandareZ had stolen. At the
last term of Grant county district court
held at Silver City he was convicted of
tlzn III
trict Attorney w. H. II. Llewellyn, and
was sentenced by Judge F. w. Parker
to hang on June Z, but representations
made by his attorneys the then acting
governor, Hon. J. w. Reynolds, gran
ted him a reprieve of four weeks that
his sanity might be examined into
which resulted in the physicians in the
case pronouncing him sane at the time
of the crime and since. By certain
witnesses it was shown that he had
fierce and violent temper which would
break forth upon the slightest provo
cation causing him to receive the Sob
riquet of loco Joe," term used by
those who knew him and his terrible
passion. The testimony in the investi-
cation having been referred to Cover
nor Otero, he refused to interfere.
Sanchez attornews then made a mo-
tion for an appeal to the territorial SUI
preme court, but Judge F. w. Parker
dismissed the motion, the notice of ap-
peal not having been made when the
court was in session at the time Of the
trial, when it should have been made
as provided by law.
Sanchez was % years of age and un-
married. He was born in Parra1, Mex
leo, where his parents still reside, own
ing large stock ranch there.

DRUNKEN SOLDIERS.
A Murder Near Gallup and Disorderliness
at Ration,

a Murder Near Gallup and DlsorderIiness
at Ration.
A soldier on the east-bound Santa Fe
train Tuesday night shot and killed a
soldier named Frank Sheppard of Hunts
Vile, Ala, and wounded another. The
wounded man was taken off at Gallup
and the dead man sent on to Albuquer-
que. The killing occurred just west Of
Navajo Springs, Ariz. The man who
did the shooting left the train at Navajo
Springs and escaped. Officers have been
notified.
Two train loads of negro soldiers,
members Of the 4Sth and 49th United
States volunteers, passed through Ration
Wednesday night en- route east Their
train stopped about an hour, during
which the men amused themselves by
shooting up the town" and INDUCED in
loud and boisterous talk. 1t was II
o'clock and but few citizehs were on the
streets when the shooting occurred, but
1t soon aroused number of them and
great indignation was expressed. 1t is
probable that serious trouble would have
resulted but for the early departure of
the train.
