BRITISH CRUISER.
: FLORA ON ROCK
High and Dry Near Victoria, B. c.,
and May go to Pieces With
Falling Tide.

Seattle, Dec. "A special to the
Times from Victoria says: 1t was just
dayhreak yesterday when the British
cruiser Flora slid on to shelf OF rock
with, her bow high out of the water.
The after part of the vessel was forced
low down in the water and the sea
rushed in with such force through the
after-scuppers which unfortunately had
been Left open, that the after part OF
the cruiser soon sank below the sur
face. Before long there was ten feet
of water above the afterdeck.
The crew and officers were forced
to the bow whence they scrambled
down on to the rocks. The, bow of the
cruiser is high and dry, we'll upon the
rock. The shelving rock rises steep
ly where the cruiser struck and there
are large number of boulder-like
rocks on which it is in danger OF
breaking its back with the falling tide.

THE albuquerque
EASTERN RAILWAY
Work Will Be Resumed on the Con
struCtiOn Work Before the First
of the Yedr---Generdl Manager
HopeWell to Remove His
Offices to albuquerque.

Work on the Albuquerque East
ern Railway, which will connect with
the Santa Fe Central at Moriarty, and
run from there to Albuquerque, a dis
tance of 46 miles, will be resumed be-
fore the first of the year. General
Manager Hopewell who will leave Al
buquerque this evening on the Santa
Fe Limited for Chicago, will immedl-
ately upon his return, start on the
construction work, and push the un-
completed 80 miles of grade to an
early completion, 16 miles of the
track from Moriarty having already
been laid.
A desirable right of way has an
ready been surveyed and secured, the
delay incident to the completion of the
construction work being caused by the
inability to get rails and other mater.
ial on the ground The rails, ties and
all of the necessary construction ma
terial are now in place, and General
Manager Hopewell will make things
fly looking to the early completion OF
the road, which will prove very val
liable branch for the Santa Fe Central,
providing as it does a feeder out OF
Albuquerque.
Direct Connection to Be Made.
The completion of the Albuquerque
Eastern will also admit of passenger
traffic to Albuquerque via the Santa
Santa Fe new Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1898-1951, 1903-12-04

Fe Central to Moriarty, where direct
connection will be made for the Duke
City, which will not necessitate any
layover Through freight trains will
also be run between Albuquerque and
Santa Fe, and the present time that
freight is in transit between the two
points shortened considerably.
Immediately upon his return from
Chicago, General Manager Hopewell
will remove his Office from the Catron
block to Albuquerque, the books, pa
pers and paraphernalia of his Office
beng now all ready to be shipped
there on a moments notice. Colonel
Hcpewell will continue in active con-
frc, of the interests of the Pennsyl-
vania Development Company and the
New Mexico Fuel and Iron Company
Whi.e the construction work of the AL
buquerque Eastern is in progress, as
tn, several interests are all allied.
The news that the construction work
on the Albuquerque Eastern is to be
resumed before the first of the year,
will be hailed with delight not only by
people of Santa Fe, but by the citizens
of albuquerque, who will be benefited
equally as much as the Capital City
was by the coming of the Santa Fe
Central, which is proving an import
ant factor in it's growth, development
anu industry.

SNOW
OF SEASON
The Beautiful Fell in Santa Fe
and Vicinity Last Night and
During the Day.
GENERAL STORM RAGING
Moved Across the Continental Divide
Wednesday Bringing Cold Weather
Rain and Snow.

The beautiful fell in Santa Fe for
the first time this season today, the
first of the feathery whiteness being
visible to the naked eye shortly before
noon The light fall of snow exper-
fenced in Santa Fe was nothing as
compared to what was experienced far
ther south, reports from Moriarty on
the Santa Fe Central as far south as
Torrance, received up to noon setting
forth that three inches of snow had
fallen, and that it was still showing.
The mountain tops about Santa Fe
are all covered with snow, from one
to three inches having fallen during
the night and the early morning
hours. According to reports received
by the local weather bureau the
storm is general throughout the west,
northwest and southwest
"The storm of which Santa Fe gets
a gentle touch today comes from a
general storm which has been central
in Utah for two days." said r. M.
Hardinge, section director of the local
weather bureau, "and which on We'd
nesday moved across the Continental
Divide bringing cold weather with
rain and snow over all northern re-
gions of the Rocky Mountains and the
northern Mississippi Valley today.
"Its influence is but slightly felt ov-
er New Mexico but the light SHOWS
now falling over the northern noun
tains and the central plains will be
most welcome. The seasonal precipi-
tation for the year thus far at Santa
Fe and in general for the whole Ter
ritory is nearly four inches below the
normal amount since January. Where
the total annual precipitation is only
about twelve inches this deficiency is
severely felt.
According to the records of the
local weather bureau Office the last
precipitation had at Santa Fe was on
! ly two-hundredths of an inch on the
night of September 80.
"Snow of any amount will be of the
greatest benefit to the stock ranges
as the surface water is about all
dried up on the prairies. Although In
general stock is in very good condi-
tion at present, owing to the excellent
curing of what grass there was, still
severe cold without considerable
moisture will be likely to cause much
suffering and loss among stock.
Fortunately the mild weather thus
far has more than counterbalanced
the disadvantage of scant ranges.
