A GRAND JURY REPORT.
The BsrnaIIo County jail at Albuquerque Is Reported
TO Be In a Terrible Condition.

The territorial grand jury at Albu-
querque reported to Judge Benjamin
S. Baker yesterday and the judge COM
plimented 1t highly upon it's work. The
jury was in session nine days, con-
sidered 80 cases and presented 13 in
dictments. Not a single case of homi-
eide was brought to the attention Of
the jury. The report of the grand
jury speaking of Jail conditions at AL
buuuerque says: I'VE cannot find
language strong enough to character
ize the inhumanity of combining so
many persons in such inadequate quar-
ters. We found 20 persons confined in
space which would be insufficient for
one-third that number and we are
told the number is often much larger.
Cleanliness and the ordinary decencies
of life are impossible. Youthful offen-
ders and hardened criminals are nee
essarily huddled together. The spread
of contagion, both moral and physical
Is certain"

USE FOR new MEXICO SAND.
To Bs Made Use Of IN a New Building Material.
First Test Has Been Made.

Santa Fe Railroad Architect Charles
F. Whittlesey has made the first test
with his machine for COMPRISING New
Mexico sand and Portland cement into
a composite to be used as a substitute
for building stone. The result is q fine
light gray slab, hard and seemingly
durable and the result of the test is con-
sidered very satisfactory. Details of
the machinery are yet to be perfected,
but Mr.. Whittlesey believes that he
will soon have the process up to the
point where composite can be turned
out rapidly and at cost far below that
of brick and building stone. Several
slabs of the composite are now at the
Alvarado hotel at Albuquerque. The
architect expects soon to place on ex-
hibition small house built Of the new
material,
