EVERYTHING
IN SIGHT
albuquerque Firemen Take Four
sFirsts and One Second in the
Tournament.
VEGAS GETS ONE FIRST
Award of the Prizes in the Wet Test
The Occasion of Considerable
Contention.

The ST. Elmo team of Albuquerque
practically took everything in sight in
the various contests held yesterday
under the auspices of the New Mexico
Association of Firemen. The Albu-
uuergueans captured four OF the firsts
and in the single coupling contests
the albuquerque company settled all
disputes by handily walking away
with both first and second money.
There was a dispute over the award in
the wet test and it was claimed that
the Albuquerqueans not only used
fresh man and a non-runner in making
the nozzle coupling but that outside
interference was also, had. The deci-
sion of the judges was appealed from
and the board of control met last
evening and the matter was formally
disposed Of by announcing that the
unanimous vote of the board was that
the Albuuuerqueans were the winners
and that the real cause for protest
was on the part of the visitors, who
were the parties interferred with and
not those interfering.
From what was heard as evidence
last night the case seems to be about
as follows: The ST. Elmo team made
beautiful run and had all the 9th
ers 1istanced from the start. The team
on reaching the point where the nozzle
coupling was to be made was inter-
ferreh with by Las Vegas man who
attempted to turn the nozzle off in
stead of on His close personal re-
semblance to one OF the members OF
the Albuquerquans at once gave rise
to the statement that the St. Elmo
team had man in the crowd and that
1t was this fresh man and non-run-
ner who attempted to make the at
tachment There was some trouble
and for time it looked as if matters
would result in an unpleasant break
ing up Of the whole affair. Cooler
heads, however, interviewed and the
whole matter was settled by the board
of control at the meeting held last
night. There is no question in the
minds of the Santa Feans, who were
witnesses to the whole affair, that the
AlhuGuerqueans were the real winners
of the contest and that the record
run made by them was one of the
most powerful arguments in support
of this claim 1t was simply case
OF where enthusiasm got the better OF
judgment, and now that the whole
taing is decided, and time having been
given to the disputants to think the
matter over it is regarded as settlel
and will no doubt soon be forgotten
The events were all held yesterday
and the meet is over. Today the var
ious teams are leaving for their
homes and by this evening there will
be few if any of the visiting firemen
left in the city. The results OF the
contests are as follows:
Ladder climb-Daniels, (Las Vegas
5 1-5; p. Alarid (Santa Fe) S-5.
Team coupling contest-Mason and
Lugton (AlbuQuerque) first, Cook
and Gatchel Las Vegas) second.
Wet test-Albuquerque, first; Santa
Fe, second; Las Vegas, third. Time:

FELT LIKE A STRANGER
Capt. George H. Pettis Visits New
Mexico After an Absence of
Many Years.

Capt. George H. Pettis, now OF
Providence, Rhode Island, but who
was one of the 'old timers" of New
Mexico, was in the city few days
this week having stopped over in San
ia Fe on his way home from the ma
tional encampment of the Grand Army
at San Francisco. Captain Pettis was
accompanied by his friend, Charles
W. Rhodes, another veteran, who saw
hard service in the First Rhode Island
infantry during the late unpleasant
ness. The two remained in Santa Fe
for few days and then continued
their journey home.
Captain Pettis is a native of Massa-
chusetts, and he came west in '54 go
ing to the coast At the time of the
breaking out of the war he was a
resident OF San Francisco and was
commissioned as a lieutenant in COM
pany K, First California infantry. In
1865 he was mustered out of the Cali
fornia service with the rank of cap
tain and was at once commissioned
first lieutenant of company F and ad-
jutant First New Mexico infantry,
Col Frank Arbew's regiment. In this
regiment he served for about two
years and then went to Algodones
where he conducted for several years
the famous old hotel, The Railroad
House" at that place. There were
probably few men in New Mexico at
that time who were more widely
known from Algodones and Santa Fe
to the Mexican border than was Cap
tain Pettis, and his hostelry was
known alike to both soldier and trav-
eler He remained in the Territory
until late in '68 when he went back to
his old home in the New England
states settled at Providence, and has
been prominent in the affairs of
Little Rhody since his adoption of that
State as his home At present Cap
tain Pettis is the State sealer of
weights, measures and balances, and
his offices are in the state house az
Providence. Captain Pettis is the
post-commander of Arnold Post No. 4.
department of Rhode Island, G. A. R..
and secretary and treasurer of the
California Volunteer Veteran associa-
tion. He is a prominent and active
member of the Grand Army of the Re-
public and is always found at the front
when the interests of the old soldier
are to be considered.
In speaking of the many changes
that had taken place since his resi-
dence in Santa Fe and in New Mexico,
Captain Pettis said that nearly all the
old-timers that he knew were gone

BROKE DOWN AND CONFESSED.

At o'clock Captain Horton fairly got
to work on Nargashian and half an hour
later the prisoner broke down and made
a complete confession.
In company with Kasper Nigohian ne
took his uncle to McElroy's saloon.
After the two had made Ouloosian stu
pidly drunk they led him out of the sa-
loon and when walking down Smith street
told him that they knew where there
were some girls and induced him to go
and see them.
They led him, unobstructed by any Of
ficer or other pedestrians into Johnson's
barn.
Before they could gain access 10 the
premises Nargashian climbed through a
window, unfaetened the stable door and
Nigohian led Ouloosian in
The place was In darkness and Ouloo-
sian In his badly fuddled condition could
not have known WHERE he was
In fact Nargashian confessed that
Ouloosian was too drunk to know any
thing or to offer any resistance.

He lost no time in communicating what

caused Ouloosian's cousin. Monoog Kaza-
rtan, to be arrested ON suspicion, as he
had been with Peter early Wednesday
evening
Kazarian had alraedy given a good &C
count of his whereabouts and set up the
best kind OF an alibi hence he was set
