PLEA FOR STATEHOOD.
Governor Of New Mexico Gives Re.
sons why Territory should he
Made state Of the Union.

Washington, Nov. 2s.-The annual
report Of Gov. Otero, Of New Mexico,
makes = plea for the admission Of the
territory to statehood. The report says
that during the past year the building
;of railroads continued with undated
vigor, and capital made extensive in
vestments. The finances Of the terri
tory are in excellent condition, and 90
are those Of the counties and cities.
with q few exceptions caused by loose
methods many years ago, and the re-
suits Of which methods the coun-
ties affected are making every
effort to overcome. The terri
tory, ~ well as most Of tho coun-
ties, is reducing its Indebtedness. while
several counties are refunding their
Indebtedness at q low rate Of interest.
The assessed valuation of New Mexico
shows an increase of about 1000, coo
over that Of the preceding year, but as
the average assessment rate is only
about 20 per cent. of the real value, the
actual increase Of taxable valuation,
owing to the elimination Of double as
sessments in former years. is almost.

Mrs. Roosevelt was much agitated
over the occurrence, but the president
was not at all alarmed.
At $50 Broadway It was said that
Deming had desk room. and that he
had always appeared to be perfectly
rational on Ill subjects except his pam
acea.
The presidential party went to Jersey
City without further incident, and left
for Warrington.
Il. wanted to Cure the Kaiser.
Deming when taken to police head
quarters told q rambling story. He
said that he had tried before to inter-
view the president to request him to
accept some Of his panacea to send to
Emperor William Of Germany, for his
throat trouble. He failed on these ear
lier attempts. he said. to see the pres
ident.
The ohicials at the detective bureau
said the man appeared to be perfectly
harmless and rational on every sub
ject except that Of his remedy. Moth
ing was found on him to injure any
one. Deming told the, officers that he
depended on God to guide him in his
business affairs. 5,ff

After completing an investigation
into the manner IN which Deming
gained entrance into the church and
reached the side Of the president, Po-
lice Commissioner Greene announced
that he was not satisfied with the ex-
PLANTATION made by the police who
were in charge at the church, and that
he would place Capt. Cottrell on trial
on charges of failing to make proper
arrangements. Three detectives and
two policemen who were on guard Mt
the church will also be placed on trial.
