NEATE ADMITS
HIS THIEVERY
Makes Confession to Attorney
Herrin That He Stole Jew
elry From Plymouth Hotel
THREE CASES AGAINST HIM
Says the Poisoned Cocktail
Was Intended for Himself
and Not for the Pawnbroker

Leon D. Neate, ex-night clerk at the
Plymouth Hotel, Bush and Jones
streets, who was arrested on Wednes-
day by Detectives Dinan and Wren for
stealing jewelry and other articles
from rooms of the guests at the hotel,
will have at least three charges Of
burglary booked against him. The
three complaining witnesses will be
Mrs. Kimball. Mrs. Brown and Her
bert Thompson.
Neate denied yesterday that he ever
had any intention of poisoning Nathan
Carr, the pawnbroker at SIC y Dupont
street, but averred that the poisoned
cocktail was for himself. He had
presentiment that he was to be ar
rested and purchased the strychnine
TO be prepared for death rather than
for disgrace. If the detectives had.been
half an hour longer in making their
appearance, he said, they would have
found his dead body.
Against this statement it is pointed
out as peculiar that Neate. shortly be-
fore he went out for the cocktails,
asked Carr to show him the inside of
the safe in the store. Carr thought the
request a most unusual one, but COM
piled with it. The police think it is
just possible that Neate might have
had thought in his mind to poison
Carr and"rob the safe of it's contents.
Attorney w. J. Herrin, son of the
proprietress of the hotel, had long
talk with Neate in the city prison
yesterday. Neate admitted to him
that he had stolen articles from diff
ferent rooms and had sold most. of the
plunder to Carr. He said he had been
assisted by a bellboy, but the police
do not believe him and are satisfied
that Neate was alone in the thefts. He
sold the stolen jewelry to Carr under
the name of Bryant.
Neate came to the city last August
and had been employed as night clerk
in the hotel for three months. In his
pockets a letter was found that he had
written to Ben Burridge, 7SS Clayton
street. He asked Burridge for loan.
as he was dead broke" and promised
to repay him double the amount. He
also wrote that his father and mother
had come to the city and had taken
up their residence at 1882 Van Ness
avenue. This latter statement, the de-
tectives say, is untrue.

CHARGES TWO RACE-TRACK
MEN WITH BEATING HER
Mrs. Sadie Rodgers Has Louis F. and
George A. Marshall Arrested for
Alleged Battery.

Alleged Battery.
The case of Louis F. and George A.
Marshall, the brothers who are ac-
cused by Mrs. Harry Rodgers of hav-
ing wsvlaid and beaten her last We'd
nesday night, came up in the Police
Court yesterday, but was postponed
until next Wednesday morning be-
cause of the inability of the prosecut-
ing witness to appear in court. Mrs.
Louis F. Marshall attempted to secure
a warrant for the arrest of Mrs. Rodg
ers but Judge Conlon. declined to issue
it while the present case is pending.
Mrs. Marshall alleges that Mrs. Rodg
ers struck her at the race track.
Mrs. Rodgers was confined to her
bed yesterday, claiming to be suffering
from her injuries. She denied that she
ever struck the wife of Louis F. Mar
ehaI. She asserts that when the men
came upon her she thought they were
footpads and she tried to run away,
but they followed her and struck her
to the ground.
Mrs. Rodgers believes that the Mar
shalls tried to injure her because of
quarrel they had with 4. j. smith,
her brother-in-law She claims she
could not have scratched Mrs. Mar
shall, because her nails are too short,
she having bitten them for years.
The Marshalls are well-known race
track men. Louis Marshall said last
night that he and his brother called
upon Mrs. Rodgers Wednesday even
ing to demonstrate with her for strik-
ing Louis wife. They did not find
her in, but met her on the corner and
Immediately upon seeing them she
struck at them with her umbrella.
Louis says he did not strike Mrs.
Rodgers nor did his brother do so.
Louis Marshall claims that the rea-
son Mrs. Rodgers assaulted his wife
was because of a quarrel she had with
her brother-in-law over the manage
men Of the racehorse Mansard. He
claims that Mansard is Mrs. Rodgers
property and that he and Jennings
cleared up $4,000 in Chicago on the
race the animal won there, (which
made Mrs. Rodgers jealous"

CAPITOL Grounds improvements.

improvements are being made at and
adjacent to the capitol grounds that
will In the ear future greatly add to
the appearance of the premises. A row
of American maple and linden trees
has lately been set along the walk on
Don Gaspar ven to the east of the
building and Judge n. B. Laughlin has
placed a row of the trees on the east
side of the same street adjacent to his
residence. The American maple is one
of the finest shade trees there is, and
this street will, in the course of a few
years, be the prettiest driveway in the
city. These trees spread and have a
very bushy top. AS Don Gaspar ave-
nue. is not very wide at the point men
toned, the trees will in the course of a
decade form an arch over the street.
A pressed brick walk is sOon to be
erected on Don Gaspar avenue to Gal
isteo street. A row Of the American
naples will set along Manderield and
Galisteo streets later, but this may not
be done during the present season.
The trees on Don Gaspar avenue are
protected by frame guards recently
erected. That part OF the grounds con-
tanning no grass has been plowed up
and will be leveled off and sowed in
grass at once.

With lovely Eve beside him,
Nothing was found too rich or good

But now, tits only once awhile

Trouble is ever tagging near
To give as cause for many a tear.
To Offset these, the only way
Will be to go the last of May
To a certain place made neat and

Colombo hall-where woe and care
May for an hour their nagging cease
And you enjoy delightful peace.

To walk. or ride or motor ar;

Charles Chapman of Hobart. Okla,
is in Santa Fe for the purpose of max

thirty-one days to do so. He found
Estancia plains the best section of
country he passed through and has
concluded TO settle there. He inform
ed the New Mexican that this fall at
least 1000 families from Oklahoma
and Southern Kansas will come TO
New Mexico as the promised land to
make homestead desert land entries.
and that many of them will come to
the Estancia plains. The literature
distributed by the bureau of immigra-
ton in those sections has attracted
the attention of farmers to New Mexi-
co, and they are coming to see for
themselves and to stay. He expects
this movement to begin as soon as this
seasons crops are gathered, and
many of the farmers there have al
ready sold their farms preparatory to
coming to New Mexico. He came via
Portales, Roswell and Torrance and
along the Santa Fe Central railway.
