INDIAN MUMMY.
Found in a Cave at Tuldrosd and
Brought Here.
At GROSS, KELLY & CO.'S STORE.

Gross, Kelly & Co. have mummy
on exhibition which is a great curios-
ity The body is evidently that of an
Indian, large and stately. 1t was eX-
cavated from a cave near Tularosa,
fifty miles west of Magdalena, last
week, by a party of explorers, and is
in an almost perfect state Of preserva-
tion. With the mummy were found
large bow and some pottery of old de-
signs.
A notable popularity of the
curiosity is two arrows run through
the body. One through the shoulder
and the other through the back. A
soap-weed moccasin, which was well
preserved, was on one of his feet, and
the scalp was missing
The mummy was received this morn
ing and has been viewed by many
visitors. Roy Mcdonald, the Mutual
Life insurance man, and Mr.. Summers
dropped in on a telephone message
that they had man to be insured.
But they found it dead business,

sicians hope to save the man unless
blood poisoning intervenes. The re-
volver used in the shooting is a 3S-
calibre Smith & Wesson and is in pos
session of the sheriff, he having found
it in Renie's room at the time he was
arrested
Renie has been in the city only a
short time, having come here recently
from Glendive. Before removing to
the latter place he was engaged in the
saloon business at Bozeman, where he
failed and was closed out. Before that
he was employed at the Pipestone Hot
Springs. Solomon is well known here,
having made his home in Billings for
a number of years.

ers, of Chicago, manufacturers of min
ing machinery. Mr.. Morton was seen
by representative of The Citizen this
morning and he said:
Il doubt if the people of Albuquerque
fully appreciate the magnificent ad-
vertisement the new improvements we
have made here will be. In addition
to the attractions of the Alvarado
hotel the wonderful Indian bazaar,
which Harvey has established and the
other Indian curio stores owned by
the Hyde Exploring Expedition and j.
w. Bennett, with the Indians that sur
round them. They are bound to in
terest every trans-continental passen-
ger in a way that will make them re-
member Albuquerque. Besides this,
the fact that the city is soon to be rec
ognized as the head center for all In
dian goods, and will draw many people
here from all over the continent"
Mr.. Morton also stated that the
Santa Fe is enjoying a very good bust
ness. The New Mexico and Rio
Grande divisions, especially, are taxed
to their fullest capacity, and it was
with the greatest difficulty that trains
were handled and business kept NOV
ing
Mr. Morton does not deny that the
Santa Fe is thinking seriously, and has
been thinking for some time, of raising
freight rates lie claims that the
Santa Fe has had TO meet the demands
of employees and grant large increases
in wages, and has had TO meet the in
crease in expenditures for material
and supplies, and it Will be necessary
in a way of protecting its properties
to raise freight rates generally.
Mr.. Morton and party will leave to-
night for Colorado.

erlng will be one of record-breaking
size, even for an association which is
noted for the large and representative
character of its annual gatherings. Be-
sides the eminent physicians and sur

States, Canada will send many of its
most noted medical men, while the
proximity to Mexico insures a larger
attendance from that republic than
ever before in the history of the asso-

TOM SOLOMON
He Turned a Desperate and Receives
a Dangerous Wound.
SHOOTING At BILLINGS, MONT.

Tom Solomon. who was in the sa-
loon business here a few years ago,
has turned desperate since leaving
here, and the following account, dated
from Billings, Mont, will show the
names of some ex-Albuquerqueans con-
nected with the shooting:
Tom Solomon, a gambler, was shot
and dangerously wounded by Frank
Renie, bartender for Fogg and Wat
kins, of the new saloon, the Globe, this
morning early.
The parties had been drinking to-
gether during the evening with a
woman named vic" Kirk at various
saloons, and finally had a quarrel at
Brewer Lees saloon They were put
out by the bartender and must have
continued the quarrel in the alley in
the rear of the saloon. A shot was
heard, and Solomon entered the saloon
and said that Renie had shot him. He
made light of the wound and refused
to have Renie arrested.
The woman, however, telephoned for
the sheriff, and that officer, accom-.
panied by Policeman Walker, made
search for Renie, who had disappeared
after the affray. They went to his
room and getting no response to
knocking at his door, broke it in and
found Renie asleep in bed. He was
placed under arrest and taken to the
Jail.
Solomon was conveyed to st. Vim
cents hospital, where an examination
of his wound was made by Drs. Rine-
hart, Lindsay and Chapple. 1t was
found that the bullet had entered the
back near the right side and ranged
coming out in front. In it's
course it penetrated the lower lobe of
the liver, but only slightly. The ply

The steering committee handed in a

the list was completed before the

offered an amendment which proved
to be the irrigation bill, which had

was not germane to the bill and the
chair sustained the point and ruled
the amendment out of order. Mr.. Fall
appealed from the decision Of the

took the floor to oppose the bill. He
said that the two principal business

grazing business and mining. The

Belen. He was accompanied by Chas.
Lantry of B. Lantry Sons.
The gentlemen returned to Belen
yesterday from trip of inspection of
the work being done on the Santa Fe

five miles Of the road. which took
then to Mountain Air, the new town

Inc CounCil.
(Thursday's Afternoon SESSION.
The debate on the irrigation bill in
the council caused every available
inch of space in the room to be occu-
pied. In the course of his remarks Mr..
Hawkins said he had not heard one
and he hoped to hear one advanced
before the afternoon was over. He Of
freed a chrome to any one of the op-
ponents of the bill If they would give
him one reason why 1t should be de-
feated Mr.. Andrews sent up to the
desk and had read the irrigation law
as passed by congress and he submit
ted this as an argument in reply to
those who had spoken. Mr.. Spiess, in
reply said the law does not apply to
New Mexico for the reason that the
land available for reservoirs is not
public land and it was that defect
that the pending bill sought to correct.
Mr.. Fall said the reading of the Unit
ed States law showed as no speech
could have done, the absolute neces-
sity for the pending bill. He said 1t
further showed that Mr.. Andrews
knew absolutely nothing of what he
was talking about when he tried to
discuss or legislate for irrigation for
New Mexico. He said is showed fur
ther that he was remarkably badly ad-
vised by the eminent counsel who
was sitting beside him. advising him
as to every move, F. A. Hubbell. He
referred to Arizona receiving $2,750,-
900. and New Mexico not getting a
cent because New Mexico would do
nothing to help in the matter. Mr..
Hughes said he thought each attorney
in the counsel had been able to demon.
strate to the ladies what a fine ora.
tor he is and he would suggest the
council get down to business on the
proposition The question reverted to
the motion to adopt the favorable re
port of the committee and this was
lost by nays to ayes. The bill was
then tabled indefinitely by the same
vote, those voting against the measure
being Messrs. Albight, Andrews. Dun
can, Hughes, Martinez, Pinard and
President Chaves.
The council took recess until

Steady Decline Predicted.
Memphis. March 21.-The river is
now falling at Memphis and it is be-
lieved the worst of the food situation
Is over. The gauge today marked 1913
feet against 40.1 feet last night, and
steady decline in the big stream is pre-
dicted from now on. Three other
breaks in the levee north of Memphis
will send a large volume of water
through the st. Frances basin in Ar
kansas. This water will flow into the
Mississippi again at Helena and the
levees south of there will feel its full
force. The situation south of Mem
phis shows a weak place at Leland,
Ark. opposite Greenville, Miss. The
caving of the river bank along the
front of the levee there has continued
rapidly and is now within 100 feet OF
the levee proper.
Slowly Rising at New Orleans.
New Orleans, March 21.--The gauge
here today marked 1876. which is in
excess of the record of 1897. 1t is
rising very slowly. In spite Of the Ar
kansas breaks, the current here is still
terrific and the water is being carried
out to the sea at a tremendous rate.
Reports from all quarters to the levee
board continued encouraging today so
far as conditions in the city and the
country contiguous thereto are con-
cerned. The strain against the levees
south of Red River on. both sides OF
the rive is increasing, but confidence
continues to be expressed that they
will hold. A heavy rain fell during the
night and early morning, and the wea-
ther is cloudy and threatening further
precipitation.

The Clothing Thieves Up Before JUS
tiCe Crawford.
FEW OTHER CASES.

In Justice Crawford's court this NOR
ming, Arthur Drake and John Wills,
the young men arrested yesterday with
quantity of stolen clothing in their
possession, were bound over to the
grand jury.
A coat, vest and pair OF trousers
were identified by Mike Mandell and
the other two pair of trousers by 81
mon Stern.
1t was learned in the trial this morn.
ing that the men entered Simon
Stern's place under the pretense of
looking at pair of overalls, the same
racket that was worked at Mandell's
and at the same early hour. The trous-
ers were not missed from the store,
and it was only after Mr.. Mandell stat
ed that they were not from his store
that Stern's clerk identified them.
The man that did the lifting is still
at large, but the police are after him
and expect to have him in short
time.
1t is probable that there were more
goods stolen than have been missed
The man who did the lifting undoubt-
edly took his share of the stolen ar
ticles.
