RAILWAY RUmORS.
Gigantic Combine Talked Of. to Control All
Roads in Country.

New York, April 5.--Reports that
huge railroad combinations are in pro-
cess of formation were widely oircu-
lated here. today. Detailed statements
concerning the plan already published
looking to the combination of all the
great railway systems of the United
States under the control OF one com
pany were given but as a general
thing prominent railroad officials and
bankers decline to discuss the matter.
According to all accounts the enter
prise involved the greatest oombina
ton Of capital known in the history of
fina nce. 1t was said the company would
be formed under the laws Of New Jer-
sey. for the purpose of conducting
general freight and transportation bus
mess throughout the United States;
that the company would hold a con
trolling interest in all of the great rail
way systems, and that the manage
mcnt OF the road would be vested in
the controlling company. According to
the proposition. each road would pre-
serve its identity and corporate exist
ence. but the new company would con-
troll the affairs of all. by this policy II
was claimed large sums Of money could
be saved as a result of economies in
the management and the stoppaga OF
rate cutting.
one report stated that the first step
OF the proposed plan would b." the
securing Of the control Of the Stocks
of the Chicago. Burlington & Quincy.

Northern Pacific. and that provision
would be made for the acquisition OF
other properties in the immediate fu-
tuIe.

BLACK JACK IS NO MORE.
The Famous Outlaw Pays the PENAL
ty Of His Many Crimes, He
Dies a Horrible Death,

The press dispatches this
morning announce the death of
Thomas r. Ketchum, alias Black
Jack, by hanging at Clayton yes
terday. Ever since the death
penalty was pronounced upon
this famous outlaw there had
been rumors of attemps to rescue
him from the officers of the law,
but every precautiou was taken
against any such attempt. The
execution proceeded quietly in
the presence of only a few spec
tators.
The death of the criminal was
a horrible one. He was a heavy
man and the drop of seven feet
proved to be too much. His
head was severed from his body
as with a knife. Though the de-
tails we're horrifying, death was
of course instantaneous and the
result was therefore a much more
merciful one to the victim than
many another execution has been
when apparently more skillfully
accomplished.
The noted criminal kept his
nerve to the last. He seemed far
less affected by his approaching
doom than many who called on
him. He wrote letter to Presi-
dent Mckinley confessing the
commission of crimes for which
three men are now confined in
the penitentiary at Santa Fe.
Shortly before the execution
telegram was received by the
officers purporting to come from
Governor Otero ordering a stay
of execution. This proved to be
a fake.
Thus ends another career of
crime. The fate of Black Jack
should teach the criminally in
clined that the holding up of
trains is not a healthy business
in New Mexico.
The chieftain. (Socorro, N.M.) 1890-1901, 1901-04-27
Card Of Thanks.

Kind friends: Allow us to ex-
press our appreciation to you for
your kindness shown to our dear
father during his sickness. And
may the great reservoir Of Gods
love flow into your hearts, and
that you may drink from the
pure water of life that has for
thousands of years and will ever
through the circles of eternity
quench the burning fires of the
other world, and may each of
you be kept by the great love of
Gods power and permitted to
ascend that mystic ladder seen
by the Patriarch Jacob in his
hours of lowliness, and at last go
sweeping through the golden
streets of the Heavenly Jerusa-
lem on the chariot that was
drawn by heavenly steeds to car
ry the faithful Elijah home to be
with his God forever.
