ANDREWS At El PASO.
There to Make Traffic Arrangements
With Ell PdSo & Northeastern.
HIS BRIEF INTERVIEW.

Senator w H. Andrews, president Of
the Santa Fe Central railway, and
party who have been visiting the
points of interest along the line in
New Mexico, were in FL Paso yester-
day.
When seen by an El Paso Herald
man Senator Andrews said
Everything in connection with the
railroad is moving along in nice shape
and we expect to be able to put the
line from Torrance to Santa Fe in op-
Grafton by the first of July. The AL
buquerque Eastern line We expect to
have finished by the first Of the year
"The others in the party, Col. A. j.
Lester, of Chicago; c. w. Delameter
bond broker of Pittsburg; a. G.. C.
Quay, son of Senator Quay, and b. w.
Robbins, general agent of the Denver
& Rio Grande at Santa Fe, N. NJ. have
no connection with the railroad, but
are out here to see little of the beau
ties of the southwest.
MY reason for stopping over here
today is to make final arrangements
with the FL Paso & Northeastern for
rates and schedules to apply over that
line in connection with business from
off our line. and have made very sat
isfactory arrangements with that line.
I'VE are all well pleased with the
trip and only wish that we could have
stayed in this section longer"
Some time ago the Herald announc-
ed that the Denver & Rio Grande
would get into this city by way of the
Santa Fe Central and the FL Paso &
Northeastern lines, and when asked
to verify the statement Senator An
drews said:
yes, the Denver & Rio Grande will
operate into this city over our line and
the El Paso e. Northeastern. This will
mean a great deal for the city of El
PasO, as 1t will furnish much shorter
line to the north and northwest than
Is at present in existence.
The field opened up to FL Paso by
the two lines will prove a great feeder
for the city. Our line opens up a very
rich cattle and agricultural country
and we also have some very rich cop
per mines located on the line and also
one smelter. This is at San Pedro
and is used to smelt the copper ores
from the mines near that point"

DEADLY TORPEDO.
Tragic End Of Little RenatO, Son Of
Mr.. and Mrs. A. MoreIN.
FUNERAL TOMORROW MORNING.

Yesterday afternoon at $50 o'clock
in the alley running south of the Los
Angeles rooming house on South Third
street Renato Morelli. the 7-year-old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. A. Morelli, was
killed almost instantly by the explos-
ion of a railroad torpedo, with which
he had been playing.
Mr. and Mrs. Morelli conduct the
Los Angeles house, and the unfortu-
nate boy had been playing in the alley
during the afternoon with other boys
of the neighborhood. 1t is supposed
that he found the torpedo in the al
ley, where it had been carelessly
thrown. 1t was the small kind used
by the railroads to signal trains of
danger ahead. The railroad torpedo
is about the size of half dollar piece
made OF tin or brass, and contains
some powerful explosive matter.
Strange to relate none of the boys
playmates were near when the explos.
sion occurred, but it is thought. as
the accident occurred directly over
the iron cover of a sewer manhole.
that the boy placed the little round in
strument of death on the manhole cap
and hit it with a stone or some other
hard substance.
A piece of the tin cover OF the tor
pedo entered his left breast just above
the nipple. and entered the cavity con
tanning the heart. This piece caused
death. A second piece cut his left
wrist and a third mangled the thumb
ot his right hand. This last wound is
fair proof that the torpedo was explod-
ed from a blow delivered with the
right hand.
The boy after the explosion ran
through gate into the yard back of
the Los Angeles house and almost in
to the house before he fell. The body
was lifeless when picked up a few
moments later He uttered but one
cry of pain, and that just before he
fell.
DR.. Elder, the city physician, resid.
ing just across the street, was hastily
summoned, but an examination found
life extinct.
The bereaved family are prominent
members of the Italian colony Of this
city, and much sympathy is expressed
for the sorrow-stricken parents.
The funeral services will be held at
the Church of Immaculate Conception
tomorrow morning at $3.50 o'clock, and
all friends Of the family are invited to
attend. The funeral cortege, under
the supervision Of o. w. Strong Sons,
undertakers, will leave the home, No
3l2 South Third street, at 8 o'clock
sharp. Interment will be in Santa
Barbara cemetery. The Italian brass
band, Of which Mr.. Morelli Is a mem
Der, will render the music.

THE SMITH SCHEME.
Has a Sanitarium Proposition for the
Mesa.
HE MEANS BUSINESS.

DIR. Hugh Smith, recently of Kalama
zoo, Mich, said to a representative OF
The Citizen this afternoon that 1t was
his intention to build a sanitarium for
the treatment of tuberculosis patients
on the mesa east of Albuquerque. He
yesterday bought forty acres of the
$50 acre Lockhart tract of land lying
just south of the Tijeras canyon road
and east of the University of New Mex
leo The forty acres is located on the
highest of the mesa foothills and
commands a fine view of the valley
and the city. II is a fine site for a
sanitarium, conditions being most ia
vorable from a sanitary standpoint.

will be constructed of adobe brick,
which, he claims, makes the house
adapted to the climate. The adobe
is non-conductive of heat and cold. and
can be made very attractive. The
adobes will be made on the ground
where the buildings are to be erected.
The cottages will be built in colo
nies; first, incipient; second. middle
stage. and third, the bed-ridden pa
tients. Each colony will be isolated
from the others.
The cottages will be one story and
each supplied with porch and double
doors. so that the patient may be
moved into the open air and sun with
out leaving the cot.
The institution will begin with 200
beds, but that number will be increas-
ed as demand requires.
The doctor says that feature of his
santarium, which Is essential, will be
herd of burros and ponies for his
patients to ride out in the open air.
Work on the new sanitarium will
begin right away, and force of men
will start the brick making the first
OF the month.

City Marshal Mcmillan Arrived This
Morning With His Three Men.
HEARING TOMORROW.

City Marshal McMillin arrived on
last nights belated train early this
morning from Florence, Colo, with
George Gibson, j. l.. Lewis and James
Logan, who. it is alleged, cracked the
safe of S. Vann & Son in this city In
December last and got away with near
ly $4,000 worth OF jewelry. The mar
shal and his aide, II. B. Henlng, had
a pleasant trip.
The three prisoners were seen today
by The Citizen representative and IL
was the same old story Logan said
he bought the jewelry from an un-
known man in Denver for SIS or SIC;
that he was arrested in Pueblo for hav-
ing the goods, but got off by writ of
habeas corpus. He halls from Montana
any says the other two men know
nothing about the matter of his buying
the goods. Gibson said he was here a
short time ago, while Lewis said he
was never here. All claim to be inno-
cent as little lambs, and not much
stock can be taken from their talk as
all were very fippant
When arrested by the Florence offic-
ials nine rings and three watch charms
were found on them. Shortly after
these were stolen from the desk of the
chief OF police, together with what
money that was taken from them. SO
that a watch case that had been sold
to a Florence party for SO is the only
evidence that is now held against
them, This watch case has the num-
ber of the one of the many that was
taken from the Vann safe.
The hearing will take place tomor-
row.
The robbery of s. Vann G. Son was
the greatest that ever occurred in the
southwest All three prisoners are

POLICE COURT.
Paul waizeneggsr, a Wife Deserter,
Bound Over TO Grand Jury.
SEVERAL HEARINGS.

Judge Crawford's court was the
scene of much activity this morning.
Paul Waizenegger, who is as mean
as his name is long, pleaded guilty of
deserting his sick wife, and was held
for the grand jury under $500 bonds.
Waizenegger came here some six
months ago for the benefit of his con-
sumptive wife, and went to housekeep-
ing on Lead avenue. He secured work
in the shops. In the meantime he fell
in with another woman and led a dou-
bic life. His wife didn't seem to grow
any better and he decided to fly with
his partner in vice. So several days
ago he resigned and asked General
Foreman o. d. Buzzell of the shops,
for two passes for Chicago, stating
that he and his wife wanted to leave
Albuquerque. The passes were given
him and everything looked rosy for his
departure. However, a cog slipped
somewhere, and when he boarded No.
5 train last night for Chicago with his
good looking partner, Assistant City
Marshal Cooper and Officer Stewart
nabbed him on warrant charging
him with desertion. He looked ugly
when taken by the officers, and his
partner had so much love for him that
she didn't even stop over to see how he
was coming out, but went on with No
s for the east.
Mrs, Waizenegger, who is frail,
delicate looking woman, was in court
and her sorrow was pitiful to behold.
He had about $3.50 on him when arrest
ed and had left his better half penni-
less. The most Waizenegger can get
is year in Jail He deserves tar and
feathers and ten years in Jail, too.
Such brutes deserve no better fate.
