BRAKEMAN HILL.
Victim Of a Serious Accident at Is
Ista Junction Last Night.
SUFFERED AMPUIA1ION TODAY.

James H. Hill, a brakeman on the
Rio Grande division of the Santa Fe,
met with terrible accident last night
at Isleta. He left Albuquerque about
1880 last evening on Conductor Eit-
treia's train bound for the south. At
the junction some switching was done.
and at this point where the accident
took place, Hill was riding in front of
the engine on the pilot and by a sud
den jar lost his footing and fell. Both
feet were caught by the wheels, the
right foot being severed from the leg
and the left foot was badly crushed.
Hill was brought Immediately to this
city on a special made up of the engine
and caboose. o. w. Strong & Sons
ambulance conveyed the injured man
to the st. Joseph's hospital. DR.. Cutter
was summoned, and assisted by DR..
Wroth, amputated both legs below the
knees this morning. At the hospital
this forenoon Hill was reported as
resting easy and the chances of recov-
cry are good on account of his youth
and good constitution.
Mr.. Hill is well known here and his
many friends sympathize with him in
this terrible accident. He is the son
of Mrs. ID. Anderson, of this city, and
for some time last summer was night
clerk at Sturges' European. He has
been railroading about four months.
Besides his mother, he has a step
father, two sisters, Mrs. Sam Stevens,
wife of the day clerk at Sturges Euro
pean hotel, and Miss Kittie Hill, a
clerk at the Economist dry goods
store and two younger brothers. one
of whom is at Santa Fe attending st.
Machaels college. Another sister re-
sides in San Marcial.

landslide There was no explosion
whatever. The avalanche was Of such
large dimensions that clouds of dust
was taken for smoke and the miner
slips were taken for inside explosions
The whole east end of the mountain,
extending from the tipple eastward

Thirty miners were entombed. OF this
number fifteen were rescued uninjur-

believed the rest will be saved. There
is no reason why the whole of the re-
naming side of the mountain will not
come down.
Many small ledges of rock continue
to come down from the mountain and
1t is hard matter to get men to work
for fear of second catastrophe.

Confessed Motion to ouash Writ Of
Mandamus.
Last week, Judge Frank w. Parker
of the Third judicial district, granted
an alternative writ of mandamus
against Territorial Treasurer Vaughn
The writ was returnable and the an
swer thereto to be made in the cham.
bers of Third judicial district at Las
Cruces on Saturday, May 2. In the al
tentative writ Mr.. Vaughn, the terri
torial treasurer. was commanded to
transfer the sum of $4,000 from Ger,
tain territorial sinking funds TO fund
for the maintenance of the College OF
Agriculture and Mechanic Arts at Me
silla Park under the provisions OF the
appropriation law passed by the Thir-
ty-fifth legislative assembly. The writ
was granted upon the application of
the board of regents of this institution.
Solicitor General E. l.. Bartlett imme-
diately prepared and filed motion TO
quash the writ for the reason that the
application therefore was improperly
made, existing statutes requiring that
any and all actions against territorial
officials be brought in the district
court for the county wherein the terri.
torial capital is located and for other
reasons which were set forth in the
motion. The plaintiffs in the case
have confessed the motion to quash
and the case has been dismissed by
Judge Parker, but the suit will now be
instituted in the First judicial district
for Santa Fe county before Judge J. r
McFie.
