Pouches for. Kennedy, Moriarty,
Estancia and Torrance

Postmaster Paul A. F. Walter has
received the following official notice
OF the establishment of railway mail
service on the Santa Fe Central Rail
| way:
Railroad mail service is authorized
by the postmaster general on route No
167,018 from Santa Fe, New Mexico, by
intermediate postoffices, to Torrance,
New Mexico, from January 18, 1904,
by the Santa Fe Central Railway Com
pany. The railway company will pro-
vide for the receipt and delivery OF

A number of rules are laid down in
this official circular regarding the de-
livery of the mails from the postoffices
to the stations along the line Evident
ly it is not intended to establish a
railway postoffice for the present with
railway mail clerk service, but mere
ly to carry the mail in closed pouches,
for the postofflces at Kennedy, Mortar
ty, Estancia and Torrance. However,
postoffices should be established at
Willard. Progreso, Hagan and other
points along the line and railway
clerks put on the trains SO that mail
for tributary points such as Pinos
Wells, Golden, San Pedro, Escobosa.
Chilli, fatigue, Torreon. Manzano,

WILL SAVE $1,000.
The Cheyenne Postoffice Case is Con-
sidered Practically Closed.

Washington, Dec. 26-Following a
long conference today with Senator
Warren, of Wyoming, regarding the
latter's interest in the building leased
by the government for the postoffice
at Cheyenne, Wyoming, Postmaster
General Payne intimated that the case
was closed. He said that
the investigation showed that the
lease made with the Senator's agent
for the building now in use would
save the government $1,000 if the ten
year contract was allowed to run its
course. However, he said, at the com
pletion of the new government build
ing in Cheyenne, which would be
about July next, the postotfice would be
moved there.

of other residents in the Nambe River
Valley are in Santa Fe today seeking

KILLED BY A HORSE.
A Ten Year Old Boy at Santa Rita
Meets an Awful Death.

A distressing accident occurred al
Santa Rita, Grant County, attended
with fatal results The victim was a
little miners boy named Miguel Gal
van. 1t was about o'clock in the
morning when the little fellow, at the
command of his father, rode horse
to the trough in front of the Santa
Rita Store Company building for wa
ter. He guided the animal by means
of rope around it's neck. When he
got to the trough the boy got off, at
the same time wrapping the end of
the rope around his left arm in order
more securely to hold the horse.
There were a number of horses and
vehicles about the trough and the one
in charge of the boy became frighten-
ed and started to run. Young Galvan
did not possess sufficient strength to
stop his progress and was soon
thrown from his feet, being dragged
along on the ground. This tended fur
ther to alarm the animal which tore
down the public road, not stopping un-
til Ernest's saloon was reached dis
tance of about half a mile The rope
was SO securely fastened about the
boys arm that he was dragged all Cf
the way.
AS soon as the horse stopped, by
ISLANDERS picked up the bruised body,
when it was found that life was almost
extinct. Young Galvan lived about
five minutes and then breathed his
last. His head had been terribly
bruised and cut by coming in contact
with the stones and rough ground, and
death resulted from these injuries.
Justice of the Peace Howe empanel.
led coroner's jury, verdict of acci-
dental death being rendered.
Galvan was about ten years of age,
and was well liked about the camp.
The horse was not regarded as
vicious animal and had never been
known to do any harm.

VIM. FRASER
MAKES REPLY
In Suit of Lanning VS.. Fraser Mountain
Copper Company.-Denies AIIeea.
tions in Compaint-Asks for Protec-
tion of His Rights.

In the District Court of the First
! Judicial District for the County OF
Santa Fe. suit was brought today by
the Pueblo of Laguna VS.. George Hill
Howard, ct al, to recover principal and
interest on note for 5000 given tC
Toribio Kowurio on October 4, 1891
and which is now the property of the
pueblo.
Process was issued today out of the
District Court Of the First judicial
District for the County of Taos in
the case of William l.. Mcclure, trus-
tee, VS.. Juan Santistevan ct al, for
William Fraser, beneficiary, to fore
close a mortgage given by Juan San
tistevan upon his residence, store
building and lands at Taos The COM
plainant prays that the assignee be re-
quired to pay off the mortgage as al
tentative relief
William Fraser, one of the defend
ants has prepared answer to the COM
plant of John E. Lanning, receiver of
the Monmouth Trust and Safe Deposit
Company of Asbury Park, New Jersey,
in the suit involving the Fraser Noun
tain Copper Company. The answer is
very long, covering 80 typewriter
pages. 1t denies the allegations of
fraud and collusion between A. C.
Twining, former president of the Fra
ser Mountain Copper Company and
William Fraser, in the procurement of
loans from the Trust Company and in
the sales of stock, and it shows that at
the time the said loans were made,
TWining was indebted to Fraser upon
the escrow agreement for the sale of
the mines affected and that since the
time these loans were made not one
dollar has been paid to Fraser on the
escrow agreement. Mr.. Fraser asks
that the complaint be dismissed as to
him and that the escrow agreement
be declared void and of no effect for
failure to comply with the terms of
the agreement, and alternatively he
asks that he be given, a prior and SUI
perior lien upon the property involved
FOR the purchase price unpaid. The
answer of Mr.. Fraser shows upon it's
ACE that the charges made in certain
New York newspapers that the Fraser
Mountain Copper Company went into
he hands of a receiver because it was
l "snide" concern with no ores to JUS
,ify its operations is unfounded, and
IN the contrary shows that the prop
srty is very valuable and if it has been
wrecked, which is denied, that condi- |
ion resulted from doings at the east
,rn end of the enterprise and not on
he New Mexico end, as to which, how
,ver he disclaims any knowledge.

what appears to be nine or ten year

are no marks about the skeleton to
identify it and by all appearances it
must have been buried many years
ago..
