A STRANGE RULING.
Government Declines to Pay William
Norris for Time Wounded.
DEDUCTED FROM BOUNTY.

William Norris, of 800 South Broad
way, has a grievance against the gov
ernment. He has just received notice
of action on claim which has been
pending since 1867. Mr.. Norris made
claim for the bounty of $50 under the
act of July 2S, 1866, and the notice re-
ceived informs him it has been allowed
less pay from May 26 to August II,
1868, amounting to $35.53, giving him
balance of S14.47. Mr.. Norris kick
is that the government declines to pay
him for the time he lay wounded He
was private in company ID, First New
York volunteers and enlisted on June
/, 1861, at Fortress Monroe. He was
discharged August II, 1868, in New
York city, but his regiment was dis
charged May 25, 1868. Mr.. Norris was
not discharged at the time the regi-
ment was because of his wounds. He
was wounded at Charlottesville on
May 3, 1868, and was taken prisoner.
He lay in the woods from May until
May II before he was found and was
thus eleven days without treatment.
He was paroled and sent to the hos

Miss Gilmore Memorial.

Many people have expressed cordial
appreciation of the action the Congre-
gational church has taken in issuing in
permanent form memorial tribute to
Miss GilInore's beautiful life, which
was so well known and SO highly es.
teemed in this city.
The first intention was to give the
hooks to the large number of friends
and acquaintances, but the cost has
more than doubled what was originally
planned, because of the excellent ma.
terial used. and the artistic work done,
so it has been decided that those who
wish the memorials yet remaining,
Will be given the privilege of contribut-
ing to the expense, the small amount
of 25 cents a copy. The memorial is
not for sale, in the sense that any
pecuniary gain will be derived. This
action of the trustees, taken yesterday.
merely gives opportunity for others to
assist in the expense and at the same
time simplifies the difficult task of dis
tribution. The booklets may be Sc

CONCERNING Mr.. REssEGUlE.
Nothing Rejecting on His Character
or Ability.

President Ripley, of the Santa Fe,
in referring to the recent change in the
office of general superintendent. says:
General Manager Nudge and Super
intendent Resseguie not being in har-
mOny as to certain matters of policy
the former requested the latter TO re-
sign and as Mr.. Nudge is held respon-
sible for the operation of the road
neither Mr.. kendrick or the president
interposed any objections. 1t is not
true that Mr.. Kendrick especially fay-
ored or that the president especially
opposed. the change. because both felt
that it was a matter entirely within
the province of the general manager
and one with which they should not
interfere. There is nothing in the
whole matter which in the least re-
fleets upon the character or ability of
either Mr.. Nudge or Mr.. Resseguie. AS
to the board OF directors, the subject
has never been brought before that
body. because all such matters are in
the hands of the president"

FROM OIL FIELDS.
A Developer Of the Beaumont, Texas
County Was Here.
WAS A NORTH PASSENGER.

C. c. Duson and family, of Beaumont,
Texas. who have been spending sew
eral, days in Albuquerque, left this
morning for Denver, Colo. Mr.. Duson
is pr, si6ent of the oil development
company that made the first invest
ments in oil lands in the Beaumont
country and put down the first well to
strike oil. The gentleman, who is
very entertaining talller, tells an inter
esting story about how me discovery
of oil was made. That part of Texas is
one immense rice field and is settled
with French and Creoles. 1t is very
peculiar strip of country and because
of it's peculiarity, the natives have
called it "Placquereu," meaning "a
queer place" If the grass on certain
parts of the land should be burned off,
the fire would continue to burn for sew
eral days after the grass was all gone.
The fire would run in streaks and at
night was beautiful. The natives be-
came superstitious of the place, hence
the name, Placqureu.
"Our largest WE'LL said Mr.. Duson,
sis a siX-inch hole and will gush OIL
15O feet into the air." When asked if it
was true, as stated in some of the
eastern papers, that about the time OF
the Martinique disaster, the oil wells
of Beaumont lost force and volume.
He replied that it was all myth,
spectators scheme. The wells are as
strong. if not stronger, than they were
six months ago" After visiting Den
yer and Portland, Ore, Mr.. Duson will
return to Albuquerque and will inves-
tigate the possible oil resources of New
Mexico. He is an old friend of Mike
Mandell. Mr.. Mandell was ut the
train this morning to see his friend off.

indianapolis. Ind, July 1S.-This
morning the sentiment among the del
egates to the miners convention was
fully as strong as ever against the
strike and all danger of such an event
is now passed. The anthracite men
favoring strike admitted there is no
chance of a walk out and this morn
ing they came into the convineion de-
termined to stand as unit by the rec
concentrations OF President Mitchell.
The question whether the assess
ment recommended by President
Mitchell for the relief OF anthracite
miners be used also for the benefit of
striking bituminous miners in differ
ent parts of the country was the only
thing before the mine workers today.
The debate grew so energetic it was
determined to hold an executive ses-
sion during the afternoon Nothing

HiBERNIANS ANGRY.
Charged the Promise to Ireland Was
Not Kept.

Denver, Colo, July 1S.-The dele
gates TO the biennial convention of the
Ancient Order of Hibernians had their
anger somewhat aroused today by a
statement contained in a printed cir
cular distributed at the door of conven-
zion hall to the fleet the order had not
kept its promise TO Ireland. The stste-
ment was to the effect the rank and
file had been duped and misled by its
leaders on the instruction of the Clan
ma Gael. 1t was freely circulated. II
was the product of the head officials of
the United Irish League, although the
members admitted they had no posi-
tive proof on which to base the asser-
tion. A resolution introduced by Dele
gate e. j. Slattery, of Massachusetts,
is now in the hands of the resolutions
committee. endorsing the United Irish
League. Stephen j. DOnleavy, of Den
Yer. was chosen TO lead the fight
against this resolution on the floor of
the convention and he expressed conf
dence il will be overwhelmingly de
feated when the matter came to a
vote. The convention received reports

lieved that with the construction of
roads suitable for automobiles, bicycles
and road horses many city men of
wealth would make country seats of
farms which are not profitable at the
present time because it is too difficult
10 get to them. Better schooling for
the children of farmers would be an
other result of better roads, and still
another benefit to the farmer would be
the greater frequency of the rural free
delivery of mails. In short. the pro-
moters believe that people of all
classes will be 1terested in the great
highway from the east to the west and
that Notwithstanding the difficulties to
be encountered that the road will be
built in the near future.

Short Cut Highway.

Atlantic City, y. j., July 1S.-Prom-
inent automobilists, bicyclists and good
roads crusaders took part in a confer
ence here today to discuss the building
of a short cut highway TO Chicago from
New York. which will reduce the dis
tance of the preset roundabout route
between the metropolitan cities of the
east and west from 9S7 to $50 miles.
The promoters of t--e project, including
Col. Albert \. Pope, of Boston, and 9TH
ers, outlined their plans at considera-
BILE length and dwelt upon the benefits
to be derived from the completion of
the highway. IL was pointed out that
fully 400 miles of the proposed route
already has been equipped with good
roads. Much of il has been macadam-
lied, and it is estimated that the other
portion can be put in good shape at a
cost OF about s. 900 a mile The scheme
is 10 connect the highways already in
existence by new ones to be built by
the states, counties and municipalities
on the line of the proposed highway.
Local organizations are to be formed,
which backed by the national associa-
tiOn, are to be relied upon to build the
connecting links that viii complete he
through direct line. 1t is intended hat
the road shall begin at Fort Lee and
run through New York state by way of
Newburgh, BinghamptOn, Elmira, Cor
ming, Olean and jamestown to Cone
aut, Ohio, on Lake Erie. In Ohio it will
pass through Cleveland, Elyria and
Sandusky, thence through Indiana by
way of South Bend and Hammond to
Chicago.
In support of the project it is urged
that, aside from the roads commercial
value, it would be a big object lesson
to other parts of the country. 1t is be-
lieYed that the local authorities in all
parts of the country could not but rec
ognize the success of the project and
the profits paid on the investment, and
would follow the example 1t is be-
