and controlled by that company's Off
GERS and directors independently of

The defendants admit that the North
ern Pacific and Great Northern are
parallel and competing lines. They
deny that the lines of the Chicago, Bur

said had been used successfully In
France. 1t embodies the creation of a

weeks ago for Phoenix, Ariz.. have re-
ceived news of the death of Mrs. Nc
Kay. which occurred last week at

Mrs. Mckay, accompanied by her
husband, came to Albuquerque little
more than a year ago from Spokane,
Wash. in search of health. being vic
tim of pulmonary tuberculosis. But
the disease refused to yield to the eli
mate of New Mexico, and she slowly
but gradually grew worse. About q
month ago. thinking a change might
prolong her life. and also be a benefit
to Mr.. Mckay, who was suffering with
rheumatism. they went to Arizona. Mr..
Mckay was well known among the
Odd Fellows. and during their stay In
this city they made many friends, who
will deeply sympathize with the hus-
band in his late bereavement.

Stolen Dou Found.

p. ]. Smith, the government farmer
for the Pueblo Inalans at the village
of Laguna, is in the city with his teams
purchasing goods. Standing on lne
corner of Second street and Gold ave-
nue., this morning, at $50 o'clock, he
noticed big black dog coming toward

Joyous meeting The dog promptly
knew it's master and its master was
equally as glad to again pat the canine
on the head. A Citizen representative
witnessed the meeting and the ex-
change of happy glances, and asked
Mr.. Smith the cause of so much hap
piness. He said: That's my dog and
good canine he is. About month
ago some wretch stole the dog from
Laguna. He was following a man
south on Second street, and immedi-
atoiy on seeing me came bounding to-
ward me. He is as happy as | am, and
that's saying a great aeal."

CHARLESTON EXHIBIT.
The Necessary $500 Secured and Ex-
hibits Being Shipped.

This afternoon the Commercial club
committee, consisting of X. w. ID.
Bryan, Noa Ilfeld and Thomas Hughes
secured the necessary $500 from the
business men of this city, wi.n which
to make an exhibit of the resources OF
this territory at the Charleston exhibi-
ton. The mineral exhibit will be ship
ped at once, and the Hyde company
will send on its exhibit in few days.
Commissioner Bryan is anxious to se-
cure samples of grain and vegetables
to be sent with the ore exhibit. The
committee put in a couple of weeks
hard work in securing this subscrip-
tion and desire to return their thanks
to the merchants of Albuquerque for
their liberality.
That the exhibit Will do good is un-
questioned. fhis city is needing the
help of the south in securing the Choc-
taw & Gulf railroad, and dozen other
enterprises. This exhibit is intended
to show 10 the southerners the re-
sources of this great territory.
Pointer to Durango: A lump of coal
weighing a ton from the mines of the
San Juan county placed at Charleston
might help the building of the Choc-
taw & Gulf road from Albuquerque to
Durango. You can consider that we are
going to get that road, and it will be
from southern influence that 1t will
be built. This is why The Citizen has
been determined to make an exhibit at
Charleston.

Detroit. Feb. 12.-Sydney A. Wither-
bee today began suit in the federal
court against F. c. Andrews. former
president of the City Savings bank,
whose overdrafts and over certified
checks caused the banks suspension,
to compel the return of certain securi-
ties, including the concession for a
railroad in Mexico. Witherbee alleges
that last September Andrews promised
to loan him 100000, but when he drew
on him from Mexico for that amount
the draft was not honored. Later he
secured $50 900, but has since. so he al
leges, has not been able to secure the
other $4,000 or return of the collat-
erals for it. Now he charges that An
drews intends to turn over this collat-
eral of Witherbee's to his own credit

Groton, Mass, Feb. 12-Secretary

dition shows much improvement.

Physicians report the two other
pneumonia patients, Howard Potter

While no arrangements have been
made for the return of President
Roosevelt to Washington, it is indi.
Gated that if improvement in the boy s
condition continues he may leave early
tomorrow night or Friday morning.
Secretary Cortelyou issued a state
ment at IL o'clock, saying that the

slight improvement, and he added thai
the lad proDably will have passed the
danger point within the next forty
eight hours. The temperature OF the

prevalent during the early morning
hours, it is expected to change later.
Cortelyou said the president woult
not leave Groton until his son passed
the danger point. 1t is intimated tha
no change has been made in the ar
rangements for the reception of Prince
Henry and if alterations were to bt
effected they would take place on this

SHOULD BE STATES.
New Mexico, Arizona and Oklahoma
Should be Admitted.
CAPABLE OF sgLF-eovERNMENT.

There is a strong feeling in the
house of representatives in favor of
the admission of Oklahoma, New Mex
leo and Arizona to statehood during
the present session OF congress, says
the st. Louis be-Democrat. This
has been developed before the house
on territories, and 1t is evi-
denced by the expressions Of leading
members of, both pc.tias In the Dopu-
lar branch. Action is soon to be TAX
en- in the house on this question. There
is chance that all will be admitted
together, and that the list of states
will, before the close of 1902, be in
creased to forty-eight.
Unquestionably this Is the correct
thing for congress to do. So far as re-
CARDS Oklahoma, there would not be
the slightest excuse for non-action by
congress any longer. BY the census
of 1900 Oklahoma was shown to have
39S, 900 inhabitants, and her present
population must be in the neighbor.
hood of $50. 200. She will be entitled to
two members In the house Of represen
tatives. New Mexico had $4,000 peo-
pie in 1900, a number which is little
in excess of the unit of representation
for states in congress. Arizona's pop
ulation was 100000, which Is consider
ably less than the representation unit
but Arizona led the states of Nevada
ana Wyoming in population and is
much larger man many other states
were at the time of their admission.
The silver question was a barrier
for several years to the admission of
new states, but this menace has been
removed. There is not much chance
that silver will figure with any prom
inence in the presidential election of
1904. although it is likely to have a
place in the congressional campaign OF
1902. There is no excuse for the ex-
clusion of New Mexico and Oklahoma
any longer, and there is fairly good
reason. too, for the admission of Ari
zona. Arizona, the smallest of the
three. has more than doubled in popu
lation in the past ten years. 1t Is rea
sonably sure to have a large growth
in the present decade. There Is a
strong probability that its population
in 1910 will not be far from the 100000
mark. Congress should let these three
territories in this year.

AFTER THE OUTLAWS.
Governor 0tero Sends Vigorous Let
ters to Sheriffs of Guadalupe and
Other Counties.
LAwLEssNEss MUST CEASE.

Governor Otero has been appealed to
by citizens of eastern New Mexico to
offer reward for the capture of the
band of outlaws that has been COM
mitting murders, robberies and other
depredations lately in Chaves, Lincoln,
Union and Guadalupe counties, and
that is still at large. Unfortunately,
Governor Otero has not the power or
authority to offer such a reward, it be-
ing expressly forbidden by statute.
Outside of that, no territorial appro-
priation exists for that purpose. The
governor has, however, addressed the
following strong letter to the sheriffs
of Chaves, Eddy, San Miguel and
Guadalupe counties:
To the Sheriffs of Chaves, Guadalupe,
San Miguel and Union Counties:
Sir-I have official information that
on the 9th day of January last, most
outrageous murder and robbery was
committed at Fort Sumner by band
of eight or more men acting in concert.
They killed young man named Felipe
Beaubien, who was attempting TO es-
cape, and secured in money and prop
erty nearly 81 900, with which they es-
capped. Other similar outrages have
recently occurred in the eastern por-
tion of the territory, undoubtedly by
the same persons. This condition or
affairs must not be tolerated. 1t is not
only a reflection on the counties where
the crime is committed, but casts a
blight over the whole territory and in
jures our name in quarters where 1t
does much harm. desire to urge you
to special efforts in the arrest and pun
ishment of these criminals. l know
~. don nd which
must be incurred to that end, and If
it were in my power to do so | would
offer a reward for their apprehension,
but the legislature of 1897, by an ex-
press act, took that power from the
governor. But in the present emer-
gency | will take the responsibility OF
calling the attention of the next legis-
lature. which will assemble in less
than a year, to the facts and to this
letter, and urge it TO annrnnriate at
once a sufficient sum or money TO COM
pensate you for the arrest and convic-
tion of any one or more of the persons
engaged in the murder and "hold-ups
at Fort Sumner, or at any other place
where similar crimes have been com
mitted during the present year. And
| believe the legislature will appre
ciate the necessity and promptly com
! ply with such request.
At all events, | feel ii my duty to
urge you to prompt, extraordinary and
efficient action against these criminals
trusting to the intelligence and fair
ness of the next legislative assembly
to suitably compensate you for youl
exertion in upholding the law in New
Mexico. Very respectfully.

London, Feb. 12.-Baron Hayashi,
Japanese minister here. in an inter
view published today, declared that
the Anglo-Japanese treaty was not di-
rected specially against Russia, but un-
doubtedly Manchuria was within it's
scope. 1t was wholly meant to main
tain the status quo. The Manchurian
question was at present the subject of
negotiations between Russia and the
United States, representing the inter-
ests of all other powers and the minis
ter trusted that the negotiations would
bring about a state of affairs in Man
churia which would not be prejudicial
to the powers. II was unnecessary
pramaturely to discuss that question.
