DECISION FAVORS
LA TOILETTE
Ticket as Regular One in Wisconsin,
Decision in Case Will Be Filed
Later.

Madison, Wis, Oct. 5.-The supreme
court today decided the La Toilette
ticket was the regular one. Three
judges, Marshall, Dodge and Winslow,
were for the La Toilette faction, while
Chief Justice Cassidy dissented. The
opinion will be filed later by Justice
Marshall. At the Wisconsin state con-
vention, held May IS, hast, 1,O6O dele
gates were. given seats. OF these, 1OS
were contested. OF the uncontested
seats 513 1-3 were for La Toilette. The
state central committee, being of La
Toilette sympathy, seated but 46 of the
contested, "sta,wart" delegates, thus
giving La Toilette majority. The "stal-
warts" charged unfairness and bolted,
nominating separate ticket and went
into the supreme court to compel the
secretary of state to put the "stal-
warts ticket in the regular Republican
column of the oficial ballot.

IRRIGATION
ENTERPRISE
Recent Rains in Vicinity Of Tres Pied
ras Shows Plenty of Water For
Such Purposes.

Special to the New Mexican.
Tres Piedras, N. NJ, Oct. 5.-The
heavy rains of the last week have dem
onstrated the feasibility of reclaiming
strip of land beginning about ten
miles north of Tres Piedras and ex-
tending south for forty miles, thence
east as far as the Rio Grande, dis
tance of twenty miles. This land has in
many places immense reservoirs, cap
able of holding an almost endless sup
ply of water Enough water has fallen
over this section of land in the past
few days to irrigate the strip for an
entire season, if plans were made to
store it,
But few people realize the immense
benefits to be derived by the reclaim
ing of this tract If reclaimed, this
body of land would support at least
three good-sized towns in which could
be located hotels, Touring mills, beet
sugar factories, etc, and give a good
living to hundreds of families. A sys-
tematic effort should be made by the
people of this section and the Territory
at large to induce capital or the govern
ment to look over this part OF New
Mexico with view to putting the land
under cultivation. Colonies of people
who would locate here would aid ma
terially in securing statehood.

:. st. Petersburg is Puzzled.
st. Petersburg, Oct. 5.-Military crit
les at St. Petersburg share in the gen
eral uncertainty as to how to size up
the situation at the front of Field Mar
shall Oyama when he makes his antic-
ipated advance. They seem to agree
that a strong screening movement is
in progress Immediately east of Liao
Yang, that probably front attack will
be made from the west and the tactics
of the Japanese at Lao Yang will, be
repeated and that General Kuroki will
cooperate with ,fanking movement
from the east. Some of the critics
point out that the conditions at Port
Arthur may force change of Oyama's s
plan Of campaign. The continued fail
ure of the attacks on the fortress and
enormous losses sustained by the be-
segers they think, may compel Oyama
to dispatch some of his veteran troops
from the Manchurian army to General
Nodzu's support, as reinforcements ar
irving at Port Arthur are mostly re-
serve men.

RODEY STILL
CONSIDERING
Which Way to Turn and Whether or
Not to Make the Race as an In
dependent Candidate.
Special to the New Mexican.

Special to the New Mexican
albuquerque, N. NJ, Oct. Sit is
learned here on reliable authority that
Delegate B. S. Rodey is still consider
ing what course to take in this cam
paign and>that his decision, will be taxi
en- as soon as he receives an answer
to the letter which the delegate has
written to National Committeeman
Solomon Luna, who is now on his
sheep ranch in Socorro- County, con.
corning the situation
If Mr. Luna says the word, it is said
here, that Mr.. Rodey will jump from
the frying pan into the fire and become
the leader of the disgruntled element
in the Republican, party. Among the
politicians here generally the move
ment is not looked upon with any favor
whatever, and Mr. Rodey's best friends
are advising against it.
No one here at all acquainted with
Mr.. Luna believes that he will advise
Delegate Rodey to make the race, but
it is the universal opinion freely ex-
pressed that Mr.. Luna will counsel in
the very strongest language and will
protest absolutely against the delegate
taking such fatal step and making
such a detrimental political move.

STATEMENT is
FLATLY DENIED
BY American Legation at Peking That
American and British Finan-
ciers Would Get Preference.

Peking, Oct. 5.-It is announced by
the American legation, with reference
to the Canton-Hankow Railway, that a
previous statement to the effect that
If foreign capital should be necessary
in extending the railway beyond the
present limits under American and
British direction, that the construction
of the line to Chung King in the prov
ince OF Sechaun 1882 miles above Han
kow) American and British financiers
would have preference, is incorrect.
What the Chinese government promis-
es is that if foreign capital is sought,
application will first be made to Amer
lean and British financiers, but that
there is to be no preference. The Can.
toni -Hankow Railway Company was in
corporated under the laws of New Jer-
sey, and the majority of the original
stock is held in this country.

TWO TOWNS
WASHED AWAY
In BernaIiIlo county-Damage Great
Throughout That Section of
Territory.

Albuquerque, N. NJ, Oct 5-Reports
from the floods in the Rio Grande Val
ley above and below this city are com.
ing in. The towns of Valencia and Los
Lentes were practically washed away
and several hundred families are home
less. The river swung to the east, cut
new channel, and poured torrent
through the two towns. Strange to say
no lives were lost.
Los Lunas and Belen, two small
towns south of this city, were thur
oughly drenched and a number Of
adobe houses in each town destroyed
The Barelas suburbs of this city suf
fered the most in this immediate vicin
ity and about fifty houses, all occupied
and a number of barns, crumbled to
the ground.
The Methodist and Catholic church
es and mission schools of Barelas are
being used to house the homeless.
About fifty feet of the big bridge which
spans the river at Barelas went our.
Ignacio Gutierrez, county commits
sioner of Sandoyal County, telephoned
that the damage wrought at Las Cor
dales and Alameda above the city will
amount of several hundred thousand
dollars to the residents and farmers
on account of washed away homes,
farms and even lives.
At Alameda the dixie built by the
city of Albuquerque to prevent the Rio
Grande from cutting new channel
and sending the water down through
the city, stood the pressure in good
shape.
Over 400 meal tickets are being is
sued to water bound passengers by the
Santa Fe in this city and they are be-
ing fed at the Alvarado. Although the
coast lines are open the trains from the
west are, being stopped at other eating
houses along the line.

D. & R. 6. TO
THE RESCUE
Sunday Trains to Run Until Normal
Travel Is Resumed Over Other
Roads,

nSddos
The Denver & Rio Grande Railroad
has come manfully to the front during
the recent washouts in order to place
Santa Fe in as close communication
with the outside world as possible.
Major s. K Hooper, general passen-
ger and ticket agent of the road. W. D..
Lee, superintendent, and B. w. Rob-
bins, travelling freight and passenger
agent, have been untiring in their ef-
forts to repair the damage done by the
freshets and establish train service i'm
mediately The work has born results
as today Santa Fe is able to commu-
nicate with the east through the lines
of this company, connecting with other
roads at Pueblo, Colorado Springs and
Denver.
The company today announced that
owing to the demoralized condition OF
both freight and passenger traffic on
other lines that service would be given
daily (including Sunday to Antonito.
This will give Santa Fe regular con-
nections with eastern and western
points. One noticeable point is that
fares have not been raised. but that on
the contrary, the Denver & Rio Grande
are expending money in order to assist
travellers under the present unfortun-
ate conditions.
But for this service Santa Fe would
in reality be isolated and the hard
work of the road management should
be appreciated in this city. Those Wis
iting Pueblo. Colorado Springs and
Denver are granted stop overs for a
few hours, which shows that the road
is looking only toward the accommoda-
ton of the travelling public.
All washouts have now been repaired
on the Denver & Rio Grande and while
additional work will be necessary To-
make the repairs permanent, trains
pass without delay.

Tie Pass, with the base running from
Mukden to Fushun on the upper
brach of the Hun River, will soon
be the theater of extended and extern
sive military movements. The Rus
SLAMS apparently are using Tie Pass as
their main base, and are constructing
a series Of defenses to shield it from
the south and east. Two roads ap-
proach Tie Pass from the south, one
of these roads being the main highway
from Mukden and the other, which is
smaller one, starts at Pushun and
winds through the hilly country. Nine
teen miles north of Mukden is the town
of Yilu. the southern and eastern ap-
proaches to which are sheltered by
sharp mountain ridges, offering strong
natural protection. 1t is reported that
the Russians are strongly entrenched
in these ridges and are constructing
semi-permanent Notifications. The vi
lu River, which is shalloy and ford
able, runs through the town. The Rus
SLAMS are reported to be fortifying the
right bank of the river between Yilu
and Tahaitan, fifteen miles to the north
ford. Several lines of ridges cross this
road, and it is said the Russians are
erecting works on the eminences be-
tween Tahaitain and Tie Pass. For
some seven miles the country, gener-
ally speaking, is fiat, although the con-
dition of the roadway from the east
ward is hilly, being 1000 meters in
height This the Russians are also for
tifying. The Russians are holding Fu-
shun with heavy forces and it is be.
lieved that they are erecting forts
along the road from that place to Tie
Pass. This is defensive work of the
Russians and the disposition Of their
force strengthens the belief that Cen
eral Kuropatkin merely intends to re-
tard Field Marshal Oyama in his cross
ing Of the Hun River and to give bat
tie on the ground which he is now rig
idly fortifying.
Japanese Lost Heavily.
ST. Petersburg, Oct. 5.-Lieutenant
General Stoessel says that the Japan
ese losses were 10000 during the at
tacks on Port Arthur from September
10 to September %. He reports that
no incident occurred from September
20 to September 80, excepting outpost
skirmishing.

BASEBALL NEWS,


The batting averages of the Pine
Bluff team up TO and including the
series played with Natchez on the
home grounds, and printed in the
phey still in the lead but he now has
company in the 300 class, Lauzon and
Grub having come across the divid-
ing line. Lee Dawkns was also bat
ting in the 500 class until that last
game with Natchez, which reduced
the averages Of all the players on the
team save Gfrorer.
Grubb leads the team in long hits
for extra bases, but Murphy is a
close second. Grubb's sixty-two hits
have netted him total of 81 bases,
while Murphey made seventy-fve
hits good for 93 bases Lavender is
the next best hitter on the team.
It is really an injustice to Lavender
to print the batting averages as they
appear in the official scores given to
the papers. Lavender occupies that
place in the batting order known as
the Sacrifice position" and yet he
has nearly as many times at bat as
Grubh and Murphey and more than
Clayton. Blue, Lauzon and others who
come lower down. Where an official

hit is not counted a time at bat and
this should bring Cavender's average
up. Those who have watched his hit
ting closely all season say that the
player is batting at least $50. There
are other members of the team who
have suffered in their batting aver
ages because of the incompetency OF
the scorers around the circuit but on
the local team Cayender's is the most
noticeable.
Another place where the official
score is not right is in the stolen
bases. Very few players get full
credit on the bases in this column
