rHE PROPOSED COMBINE.

The New Mexican says: The state
u New Mexico. consisting OF what is
New Mexico and Arizona at present,
would certainly be great common.
wealth, great not only In extent OF
territory but also In resources. II the
name OF New Mexico could be retained
for the commonwealth and Santa Fe
as the capital, If three representatives
in congress were given II and IL II
were divided into two United States
Gtstricts. the plan TO admit New Mex.
leo and Arizona might be acceptable to
the people. The appointment of three
representatives. in congress, in ad-
dition to two United States senators is
certainly very alluring. With five votes
in the national congress and the kind
OF men that would be sent TO cast them
the new state would cut wide
swath and its claims and necessities
would receive due consideration Mt the
hands Of the national law making body
At any rate the proposition is one well
worth considering. II is reported that
President Roosevelt would be in favor
of II and the sentiment of senators and
representatives is setting strongly in
that direction. The action of the sen
ate upon the statehood bill during the
coming week will throw much light
upon the subject. Until then the PEG.
pie of New Mexico will watch and
pray.

A young man named Harry Thibault
was sentenced to ten days on the
streets in Justice Crawford's court this
morning. Thibault was arrested for
being drunk and begging in saloons.
He pleaded with the Judge to turn him
loose and let him go to Ell Paso, that

exception, ask TO be given a chance
to get to El Paso.

ARE SILLY RUM0RS
So Woman Living with the Al
legged Bride-elect Declared.

So n Woman Living with the Al
legged Bride-elect Declared.
Paris, April 21.-The American col
ony here has been considerably exer-
cised by the persistent reports of the
approaching marriage of William sK.
Vanderbilt. Most of these reports
came from New York. following the
court proceedings, but all persons here
have declined to give any definite In
formation on the subject.
At late hour this afternoon, when
a call was made at the Vanderbilt res
idence and a request sent in for inror-
nation concerning the current rumors,
word was returned from Mr.. Wander
bi1t that he was SO busily engaged that
he had been obliged to deny himself
to all representatives of the press, and
to decline either to affirm or deny the
reports. Practically the same response
was given at the residence of Mrs.
Rutherford. Those occupying conf
dental relations with Mr.. Vanderbilt
declined further to discuss the reports
of his marriage.
Edmond Kelly counsel for the Unit
ed States embassy, and Secretary
Vignaud say they know nothing re-
garding Mr.. Vanderbilt's intentions.
Neily dlSO represents MT. VAN
derbilt's interests in Paris, and he has
not been consulted regarding the legal
formalities for marriage, which are
indispensable under the French law,
nor are the officials of the embassy
or consulate aware of any papers re-
lating to such marriage.
When a request was made tonight
at the residence of Mrs. Rutherford
for a confirmation or denial of the re-
port. word was returned that no an
swer would be given. One of the wom-
en- in the house expressed Indignation
at the reports and characterized them
as silly rumors. 1t is understood that
Mrs Rutherford denies being engaged
to Mr.. Vanderbilt.
Notwithstanding the reticence of all
parties concerned, the members of the
American colony hold strongly to the
opinion that Mr.. Vanderbilt shortly
will be married.

CHARLESTON CLAIMS
ARE ABOUT SETTLED.
BY r. M. Larner,

Washington, April 21.- At last the
claims growing out of the Charleston
exposition are settled, so far as the
Treasury Department is concerned.
Warrants for the payment of all the
claims adjudicated have been signed
and will be mailed to the respective
claimants tomorrow. The settlement
is on a basis of about IS per cent.
The entire appropriation of $160,000,
with, the exception of 1872, has been
exhausted in accordance with the
ruling of the auditor of the treasury.
A settlement has been delayed over
six weeks, owing to disputes over GER
tain claims, but the action of the
treasury accounting officers rests upon
the findings of the legal authorities
vested with power under existing laws.
The principal claimant. Capt F. w.
Wagner, receives about $4,000 for his
claim of $140,0

MEANS A COURT MARTIAL.
Officers in Alaska Are Charged With
Irregularities.

Washington, April 21.-Secretary
Root has directed the court-martial of
a number of army officers in Alaska.
who have been charged with making
use of the commissary supplies for their
individual profit.
1t appears that they have been pur-
chasing supplies at cost and selling
them at a great profit, something they
could do because of the freight rates
on goods shipped to Alaska. The pa
pers in the case have been referred to
Gen. Funston, commanding the Depart
ment of the Columbia, with instructions
to proceed against the officers impli-
Gated.
1t has been more than a year since
the oftenses were committed, and since
that time the officers have been un-
der investigation. The report of the
inspector who first went over the case
covers more than 500 pages.
One feature of the peculations was
in connection with handling potatoes.
Large supplies of this vegetable were
sent to the post and they were turn
ed over to a trading company at a
high rate. Although in the hands of
the trading company, the potatoes
were carried on the books of the COM
missary officer as stock in hand, until
some officer made purchases from the
company, when the stock of potatoes
was reduced to meet the credit at the
company's office and the officer MAX
ing the purchase would be charged
with potatoes.
All the officers stationed at Skag-
way at the time were implicated,
though it is stated at the War De-
partment that there were different de-
grees of responsibility.
Another Alaska case relates to al
legged shortage in the accounts of an
officer. The officer claimed his safe
was broken open and the money
stolen. The authorities decided on
court-martial.
The names of the officers were not
made public at the department. Most
of them have changed station since
the Irregularities are said to have oc-

Pensacola, Fla, April 21.-The citi-

A peculiar feature of the occasion

Senator DebOe Had Told Him GOe-

Frankfort, KY, April 21.-Henry
Youtsey was recalled for further cross
examination in the trial of James How
ard to-day.
Responding to questions as to nego-
tiations with DR.. Johnson to kill Goe-
bel, Youtsey said he went to see Sem
ator Deboe and told him Johnson and
others were willing to do it. Senator
Deboe, according to Youtsey, replied
that enough Democrats were going to
vote with Taylor to retain him in office,
and it would not be necessary to kill
Goebel. Deboe said it must not be
done.
The witness went back and told John
son what Deboe said. Johnson told
him not to pay any attention to Deboe,
but to go and see what Gov. Taylor
said about it. He went to see Tay-
lor and told him what Johnson said,
and Taylor raised no objection to the
plan of shooting from the Secretary OF
States office.
