PUMPING STATIONS.
Herman BIueher Sends a Letter on
the Subject to Delegate Rodey.
RODEY INTERESTED.

A short time ago Herman Blueher.
the well known gardener. wrote a let
ter to Delegate b. S. Rodey regarding
the establishment by the government
of pumping stations along the Rio
Grande valley. The delegate promptly
recognized the Importance of the sub
ject, and submitted the following let
ter to the director of the geological
survey:
Washington, July 8. 1902
The Director of the Geological Sur
vey:
Sir:-As supplemental to the several
letters | have written to you recently,
and the personal interview | had with
you on the subject, of selecting New
Mexico one of the first places to
start an irrigation enterprise under the
new irrigation law | now enclose to
you, letter dated the 5th instant at
Albuquerque, N. NJ, which | received
from Mr. Herman Blueher, respecta-
bic citizen of Albuquerque, and who is
one of the most extensive market gar
deners we have in the territory BY
the letter you will see that the Rio
Grande in New Mexico is absolutely
dry from Algodones south to Ell Paso,
and probably continues to be dry on
down to the mouth of the Concho. You
will notice that Mr.. Blueher pumps wa
ter for his own garden and for few of
his neighbors, and that he suggests
that the government erect a few pump
ing stations in the valley north and
south of Albuquerque in the Rio
Grande valley, for the immediate relief
of the people. | imagine that this is
impossible under existing law but Mr..
Blueher's statements as to the condi-
tion of the river, will show you that
there will be positive distress in the
Rio Grande valley in New Mexico this
year, and every year in the future un-
less one of these big irrigation enter
prises is started there. Between AL
godones and the south line of New
Mexico something like 100000 people
live, and may be more, and three
fourths of them are farmers, who with
their ancestors, have cultivated the
soil there from time immemorial. The
distress this present year is worse
than it has ever been in the history of
the country.
AS your department will have a
great deal to say with the secretary of
the interior as to location of irrigation
projects under the new law, have TAX
en- particular pains to show you condi-
tiOns in the Rio Grande valley in New
Mexico, and | implore your best at
tention of the same. There is not as
deserving a case in the entire nation a
this time as that case is. Three or
four big dams could be built at a rela-
lively small cost, compared with the
amount of good they would do, and the
first one ought to be built some where
near Pena Blanca, where the river runs
on bed rock. Sincerely yours,
B. S. RODEY.

GREAT ceremony
Funeral of Archbishop
Patrick Feehan.
The Mine Workers Are in
Session.
Stalwart Republicans Of Wisconsin
Decide Not to Bolt.
KING DOING WELL.

Chicago, July 17-With much pomp
and imposing ceremony and in the
presence of cardinal of the church
and great gathering of ecclesiastical
dignitaries the last rites of the Roman
Catholic service for the dead were
performed for Archbishop Patrick A.
Feehan today at the Cathedral of the
Holy Name. Early in the day series
OF masses was begun by numerous
visiting priests ending in great pom
tificial requiem mass.
During the funeral service crowds
thronged the streets in the vicinity of
the cathedral which was filed to over
flowing by members of the clergy and
favored few of the. laity. Cardinal
Gibbons, with his deacons. off ciated at
the solemn pontificial requiem which
was conducted by Bishop John Lancas-
ter Spalding, of Peoria. Archbishop
Ryan, of Philadelphia, delivered the
funeral sermon. After mass Cardinal
Gibbons pronounced absolutions. The
body of the dead churchman was then
borne to vault in Calvary cemetery.
The funeral cor tege was probably one
OF the granuest and most imposing
that ever passed through the streets
of this city. 1t is estimated that dur
ing the time the body of the dead arch
bishop lay in state in the cathedral
over 10000 persons passed in review.

HIBERNIANS' MEETING.
An Address was Delivered by Bishop
Eonaty of Washington.

Denver, Colo, July 1.-THE morn
ing session of the biennial convention
of Ancient Order of Hibernians was
taken up principally with an address
by Bishop Thomas J. Conaty, rector
of the Catholic university at Washing
ton. His remarks were devoted mainly
to statement concerning the growth
and work of the university. The mat
ter of deposing Father Henebry from
the chair of Gaelic literature was not
referred to by the bishop. The reports
of President Heating and other officers
which were to have been presented
this morning were not offered. 1t is
probable they will be sent in this after
noon. At the morning session the wo-
mems auxiliary question forming an
independent organization distinct from
the A. O. II. was discussed. The pre-
vaIing sentiment was a compromise
should he effected that would give the
women an advisory board to work in
conjunction with national directors of
the A. o. H. Bishop Conaty addressed
the women also, urging them to found
a chair of Trinity college, one OF the
institutions connected with the Cath
Ollie university.

Juan santistevan Estate.

a. B. Renehan. Esq, returned this
morning from Taos where he had been
on business appertaining to the Juan
Santisteyan estate. He says that ac-
counts have been examined and mostly
approved, except a claim of SO 900 by
one of Santistevan's relatives which
was objected to by some of the credit
ors. Mr.. Henehan believes that credit
ors will be paid donar for dollar, if tue
sum expected is realized from the
sheep owned by Santistevan.
Judge \. B. Laughlin returned this
morning from Taos where he had been
on legal business in connection with
the Juan Santistevan assignment. Rap
id progress is being made in adjusting
the case and it is believed that all
creditors will eventually be paid dol
lar for dollar and that the first distri-
button of 3 TO % per cent will be made
in about two weeks. The creditors of
Santistevan seem TO be we'll satisfied
with the arrangements made thus far.

STILL IN THE DARK.
Mrs, Ward Told by Medium Where
Her Rings we're.
POLICE CAN'T FIND THEM.

A native woman, whose home is in
PaJarito, appeareu before Judge Craw-
ford this morning to answer to the
charge of stealing three rings, richly
set with diamonds, opals and rubies.
Evidence sufficient for the holding of
the accused was not produced.
About three weeks ago Mrs. F. J.
Ward, from whom the rings were
stolen, was a guest of Mrs. NJ. c. Tur-
ner, who was living in her fathers
house, which is the Charles Mausard
property, during Mr.. and Mrs. Mau-
sard's absence in California. Mrs.
Ward missed the rings about O'Clock
in the afternoon and does not remem-
Der seeing them since l o'clock of that
day, when she took them from her fin
gers and laid them on the sink while
she assisted in washing the dinner
dishes.
The Mexican woman arrested, who
is a servant at the Mausard home, was
asked if she had seen the rings and
she said that she had not. AS she was
the only one that had been in the
house. of course she was the one sus-
pected of taking then. Mrs. Ward
consulted a local medium, who de.
scTibed the house and the situation
precisely and told her that the rings
were taken by q dark complexioned
Mexican woman.I Il know she is Mex

I The government has advertised for

1 fine large buildings at Fort Bayard,
which rs nine miles from Silver City,
where is located the big United
States sanitarium for the treat
ment of soldiers and sailors who are
/ troubled with lung diseases. The gov
ernment will in the next few months
outlay about 100000 in improvements
at the sanitarium. A finely equipped

| improvements will be added. There
are at the present time about $50 pa

the number will be increased to about

ed at Fort Bayard, was rather an ex-
| pertinent by the government but the
benefits and cures which Major Appel
has been able to turn out of the sani-

have been so numerous that the de-
partment has decided to make it per-
manent institution.
From the large amount of money
that is being expended and the enor-
nous Improvements under way it
would seem that the institution is a
permanent affair.
A few of the county candidates who

cash to play a game of ''sluff' for. The
agreement was TO play until o'clock

CONVENTION OPENED.
Mine Workers viii Decide the Cues.
ton of Strike.

indianapolis. Ind, July 1.-THE
United Mine Workers convention
opened this morning. The opinion is
steadily gaining ground among the del
egates a strike would lessen the
chances of the anthracite miners to
win as it would take from them all the
support of soft coal men are able to
extend If they continue to work. Then,
too, there is a genuine dislike among
the soft coal men to take action in vio-
iation of contracts. There are in at
tendance about 900 delegates and many
are holding proxies. The first part of
the session was devoted to addresses
of welcome and responses.
President Mitchell strongly opposed
the ordering of a sympathetic strike
and advocated in its place the follow
ing policy:
That the treasurer of the order be
directed to appropriate $4,000 for the
relief of the anthracite miners.
That the unions appropriate for the
same purpose as large sum as they
can afford.
That assessments of 81 per week
be levied on all members of the unions
That all officers of national dis
triCts drawing a salary of $50 a month
or over contribute 25 per cent of their
salaries.
That an appeal be made to all trade
unions and citizens generally to aid
the cause of miners.
THAT an address to the American
people he issued, appealing TO bring
pressure to bear to compel the opera
tors to submit to arbitration"
A long animated discussion followed
and the motion was adopted.
