HIS PAL WOUNDED
And Every Effort Viii! Be
Made to Kill or Capture
the Remainder of
the Outlaw Band.

That terror to evil doers, Ben Will
Jams. of Ell Paso, has again distin
(guished himself by breaking up anothe
notorious gang of outlaws and slayini
it's leader. Abel Sedillo, whose long ca
reer of crime was known to every citi
zen of New Mexico residing in the vi
cinity of Albuquerque.
| The encounter between the outlaw.
and the posse occurred yesterday neal
Isleta. twelve miles south of Albu.
querque, where the Pueblo Indians
live.
Ever since Williams was appointed
special officer of the Santa Fe railway
he has been watching the movements
of Sedillo, who has been suspected of
participating in and planning several
train robberies in the past Recently
Williams learned that Sedillo and four
of his followers had been committing
all sorts of crimes and terrorizins the
Inhabitants in the region south of AL
buquerque and not far from the Indian
village. Fearing that success would
embolden the outlaws and lead them
to next attempt train hold up or ex-
try to put a stop to their operations
and he succeeded in doing so yesterday
by Staying the leader and badly wound
ing Claude Duran, one of his followers.
The encounter occurred at a ranch
near Isleta, where Williams and depu-
ties Cooper and Barela had secreted
themselves. The officers had previous
ly learned that the outlaws had just
sold twenty-five head of stolen cattle
to the Indians at Isleta and were ex-
pected to come north via the ranch
six miles away.
At O'Clock yesterday morning Sc
dillo and Duran rode up to the ranch
for water and dismounted. The officers
promptly covered them with their
weapons and ordered them to surren-
der.
Paying no attention to Williams s
command both the men drew their
weapons and attempted to shoot their
way out of the trap. into which they
had fallen. Many shots were ex-
changed. Sedillo went down at the
first volley, mortally wounded and
Duran fell with his leg broken. Both
horses belonging to the outlaws were
killed
A heavy reward had been hung up
for the capture of the members of the
band. Duran served two years for cat
tie stealing. He broke Jail at Bland
last year by cutting through wall.
Two weeks ago he made an attempt to
hold up the California express sixty
miles west of Albuquerque. Sedillo
has been reputed one of the worst cat
tie thieves and desperadoes in the ter
ritory. He always eluded capture. A
determined attempt will be made to
secure the other men dead or alive.
The gang has for the past few months
confined it's operations to Bernalillo,
Valencia and Lincoln counties.

PROPERTY
GOES UP
Real Estate Buyers are Active,
and the Market Is
Rising.
PROSPECTS FINE
For a Further Increase, and
While Nobody Wants a
Boom, There Will be
Much Trading,

| Real estate in Ell Paso has taken a
decided advance during the past four
weeks and real estate men think that
iarother advance will come as soon as
it is definitely announced what the
Ihe Ips-Dodge company will 10 abont
building their road into Ell Paso.
The recent advances are due to The
coming of the Rock Island railroad
and the probability of the two new
smeiters being built IN Ell Paso. This
is prospect entirely but the prospect
seems so sure that the property cwn-
ers have advanced The price of prop
er.y.
1t Is thought that the Bisbee peo-
pie will announce their intentions
soon and there is little doubt that the
road is coming here All real estate
men claim to have private tips to the
effect that the road is coming now but
the announcement not having been
made little effect has been felt in
realty circles.
Sales in real estate have been larger
during the past few weeks than at any
previous period, which means that the
public generally accepts the reports of
the many new enterprises as almost a
certainty. No one seems to be afraid
to buy and sales are reported daily.
In case all the new roads and smelters
that are now prospective are realized
this year the scramble for property
will be something akin to a panic. Ell
Paso has grown to be quite city with
few institutions with heavy pay rolls,
and in case others are added, to in
crease the monthly pay rolls to twice
what they are now, the city will grow
rapidly to twice its present size.
The success of the few local institu-
tions that have heretofore had to strive
for existence has offered great en-
couragement to new enterprises and
the railroad maneuyers in all this
section have set people to thinking
what the final outcome will be.
Every real estate man in Ell Paso
seems to look forward to the time in
the near future when Ell Paso will be
lne greatest railroad center west of
hduSdS Slty anu tuc SfcdtcSt Sihcitci
center in the world. With these pros
poets realized there will be no doubt
of Ell Paso becoming a great CONNER
cial center and everybody SENS to look
forward to that time with satisfying
hope.
More mining men and capitalists in
the east are inquiring about this sec
tion than ever before and the mining
interests are in better condition than
they have been in many years. Mexico
is developing rapidly and every mine
opened in northern and western Mex
leo adds to Ell Paso's commercial field.
This has also increased travel to this
section and while numerous new hotels
and rooming houses have been opened
this year the effect has not Deen felt on
the old ones.
The outlook is exceedingly encour-
aging for Ell Paso and while nothing
that is in the future is certain, the
bright prospects are inspiring faith
into the property owners.

Big Fruit Crop Expected

The fruit growers of this vicinity are
unanimous in the opinion that we will
have the most abundant fruit crop in
years. The backward spring has kept
the buds dormant SO that the frost
could not iniure the most sensitive
fruits. Apricots promise good crop
which is something unusual for the
Yakima valley. Prunes, plums, peaches
and pears will all be overloaded. As to
the apple crop there is no discount on
an apple crop any season, and those
who have properly sprayed will get a
fine crop of marketable apples.-Prosser

BIG VOLUME OF SALES
Large Number of stocks and Bonds
Were Sold In the Market ON
"wednesday,

New York, Feb. THE trading in
stocks and bonds Wednesday showed
extraordinary volume and variety,
the aggregate sales Of all stocks
reaching 1,964.200 shares, compared
with the record of over 100000
shares, which only exceeds them. The
days business in bonds was also
very large, but it did not reach the
level attained at various times in the
bull market of the spring Of 1899.
The opening bulge WAS most pro-
nounced in the steel stocks under the
influence of the growing belief in the
plan to consolidate great steel com
binatious. The current belief in It's
accomplishment really underlay the
whole speculative movement Of the
day. although there were other con-
siderations which supplemented it.
The most conspicuous movements in
the steel stocks and the largest trans
actions were In Federal Steel and
Steel and Wire Federal Steel rose
33s and the preferred AZ. Steel and
Wire rose 3 and the preferred 2. Ma
tional Tube was MP 35s and Republic
Steel preferred 414. There were con-
siderable reactions In this group, as
well as in the whole group, after the
opening bulge. The selling to take
profits showed signs of urgency at
many points in the railroad list and
some of the leading stocks got from
! to points under Tuesday night.
Those which have recently advanced
most strongly were weakest on the
decline Pennsylvania, the coalers,
the grangers, the southwesterns tin
Guiding Atchison and Southern Pa
cificl and Louisville were all conspic-
uously heavy. Some of them re-
manned comparatively heavy until
the close, although the late VIOLENT re-
covery in the Readings and st. Paul
effected the members of their respec-
tive groups The late movement car
ried Reading first preferred 81 over
Tuesday night and Erie first pre-.
ferred 2 Union Pacific yielded under
the early profit taking, but took a
very prominent part in the recovery,
reaching a level of Az over Tuesday.
Denver and Rio Grande made SEN
sational advance of 5B and the pre-
ferred Of 2A. while other Colorado
stocks were effected to less degree
on the supposition that their amalga-
nation were imminent.
