er was confronted by Timothy Dolan,
who occupies the fat directly above
the one occupied by Oelfeuer. When
Dolan attempted to block the mans
way he was threatened with death.
Dolan stepped aside and Oelfeuer
made his way to the attic, where he
concealed himself behind a chimney.
Meanwhile the crowd. now number
ing hundreds, was battering on the
doors or throwing stones at the win
dow blinds. They would have broken

station and notified the police of the
crime. Policemen Mill and Bresna-
han were dispatched to the house.
They arrived Just as the crowd had
determined to drag Oelfeuer out of
the attic.
When the policemen. cropping their
way through the attic. reached the
corner where Oelfeuer was hiding he
warned them not to touch him. The
policemen continued to advance and
the murderer. springing to his feet,
pressed his revolver against Nihill's
stomach, at the same time pulling the
trigger. But the empty revolver mere
ly clicked and Oelfeuer reached for a
second pistol which he had in his
pocket. Before he could secure it
the policemen overpowered him.
The crowd made no attempt at vio-
lence as Oelfeuer was led to the po-
lice station. although cries Of hang

Mrs. Oelfeuer was killed instantly.
Miss Stramm, who was shot in the
right shoulder. was taken to the
county hospital. where it was said she
would recover.
Walter Oelfeuer. the 14-months-old
son. was shot in the left side. The

600. Three-fourths of this the Hyde

sources of New Mexico at big fair for

of man at Charleston to look after
and explain the exhibit, distribution OF
literature, etc. This city should sub
scribe this sum and get the exhibit in
place. To this end a meeting will be
held this evening at the Commercial
| club, at O'Clock, to devise ways and
means to raise this sum of money for

PROPOSALS.
Dutch Urging Peace on

Death of Admiral Kimberly of

Two Michigan Hotels Burning From

BOSTON WOOL MARKET.

London, Jan. 2S.-The government
leader. A. J. Balfour, announced to the
house of commons today that no over
lures for peace had been received from
any one authorized to speak in behalf
of the Beers. A communication was
from the Dutch government, which
is now under consideration.
In a communication to the British
government, the Dutch government
suggests that it might be permitted to
act as a sort of diplomatic agent for
the Boer delegates. The government
expressly disavows any attempt at in
tervention, and does not mention any
terms.
The British government infers that
it would not be approached unless the
Dutch authorities were convinced that
the Boer delegates now in Europe are
willing to accept the cardinal points
OF the British peace terms so frequent
ly Announced in parliament.
Lord Lansdowne, foreign secretary,
replied in friendly terms to the pro-
posal, but instituted inquiries in order
to ascertain the extent of powers dele
gate1 to Kruger and other Boer repre-
sentatives in Europe to act in behalf
of thu burghers in the field. If salts
factory guarantees in this respect can
he ecured. negotiations will be begun.

Fire at Cedar Hill.

Richard Hendricks. of Cedar Hill,

house in which the owner had been
curing some meat. The blaze was dis.
covered about II o'clock Friday night,
and with the assistance of Messrs.
Shidler and Southard, who were sleep

and kitchen equipment. Mr. Hendricks
estimates the total loss at about ST.

CUBAN RECIPROCITY.
House Committee Hearing Delegations
REGARDING the Treaty.

"SSd' bfSotrs
Washington, ID. c., Jan. 2S.-Cuban
reciprocity hearings were resumed to-
day. before the ways and means com
mittee, with delegations representing
the beet sugar industry of Colorado,
and a number of Cuban planters in at
tendance. F. NJ. Carey, of Colorado,
spoke of the development of the beet
sugar industry in Colorado and its
bright prospects, fl not endangered by
Cuban concessions. The present move.
ment, he said, was only another chap
ter of inevitable conflict between the
domestic sugar producers of this coun-
try and the American Refining com
pany, the latter seeking to crush the
former. The bubble which haG been
pricked, he said, was that the Cuban
was suffering from starvation.
Representative Hopkins, of Illinois
questioned the witness whether any
concessions to Cuba would injure the
beet sugar industry. Carey declared
that injury in such cases was newt
able.
Hopkins expressed the belief that re
duction could be made CT certain per
centage without destroying the Leet
sugar industry.
Representatives Dalzell and Grover
said that injury to domestic producer:
had been shown by this and other wit
nesses.

Thursday night of this week, to con-

attended by full membership.

Medler, "as | stated several days ago
when asked about the building of a
home for the Elks. to divulge the plans
mapped out for such an enterprise
but the matter, no doubt, will be fully
discussed at the special meeting on
Thursday night. The committee, it is
true, was around yesterday and looked
at several sites for such building as
contemplated, but to say that the Elks

RIGHT FROM THE FRONT.
The Extension viii Be Completed in
About Two Weeks.

l.. NJ. Pfeiffer who for the past three
months has been employed with a sur
veying gang, doing work on the Rock
Island extension. was a passenger on
No. % this morning, bound for Den
yer.
Mr.. Pfeiffer stated that it will be two
weeks before trains will run from San
ia Rosa to FL Paso, as the steel for the
bridge over the Pecos, which is about
a mile south of Santa Rosa, has not
arrived yet.
He also said that Santa Rosa is
about the toughest place he ever saw;
that the city boasts of seventeen sa-
looms. and all the tough characters of
the southwest are docking there. The
Santa Rosa Townsite company began
selling lots the other day and have re-
served certain blocks for saloons.
The deeds for lots read in such a man
ner as to make them void, if saloons
are built on the lots not otherwise
specified, and by so doing they hope
to rid the city of its many objection'
able resorts and characters.
The construction of the new road
has been kept back because of the
short water supply.
The only wells of any Importance
along the line are at Mariana, near
the Gallinas mountains.
