Need of Judicial District.
"a convenience which should be
given the Pecos Valley, and to which
it is entitled" and here Mr.. Fullen
spoke with earnestness and force, sis
a judicial district The population,
wealth and interests of the south
eastern part of the Territory have out
grown the old, primitive judicial ar
rangements, and something more mod
ern and near at hand is the demand of
the hour. OF course at court time the
hardships are not SO apparent, but the
present businessfof the Fifth District
is so great that no Judge, however
able or energetic, can give it the at
tention it demands, and the result is
that Eddy and Chaves Counties have
two terms of court a year, two weeks
each term, when three weeks or a
month each session are absolutely
necessary to keep a clear docket.
"The hardships, veXation and eX-
pense of travelling one thousand miles
and consuming five or six days of time
in reaching the headquarters of the
court in the interim of court terms, is
one that causes the people to COM
plain bitterly and with loud voice.
sIc,wness Of Present judicial Machin-
cry
when great injury has been COM
mitted and the damage is already
substantial fact, then the slowness of
putting the judicial machinery in mo-
tion can be endured with a reasonable
degree of patience. But when the in
jury is only threatened, and relief is
one thousand miles and four days dis
tant, more prompt and expeditions
procedure becomes necessary, and this
demand has established the custom of
the proposed victim of the depreda-
ton stalking out on his premises, es-
himself, and when the in
vader approaches, calmly informing
him that he has set up little court
of his own on that bit of land or over
that piece of property, as the case
may be. That he is Judge, jury and
sheriff. That the jury has already
heard and determined the case, the
Judge pronounced Judgment, and that
# there is any manifestation of war
ike or destructive action on the part |
If the intruder, the sheriff will pro-
,eed to execute the death sentence.
This provisional court reigns supreme
Until the writ of injunction arrives,
hen dissolves, and things take the
Usual course. This may be drawing 1t
/ little strong, but the necessity is
strong, and little wild language is
ustifiable

turbance. The riot is reported to have

an assault on the Jews in the principal
streets. A mob quickly formed and
surged toward Ghetto where the Jews
were knocked down and trampled up

thrown through the windows of houses
and many persons clubbed. but as far
as the dispatches indicate no person

SENSATIONAL ARREST.
Confidential Clerk of James F. Burns,
President Portland Mining Com

pany Prisoner.
Cripple Creek, Jan. "a sensational
military arrest was made today in the
person of c. H. Reimer, the contiden-
tial agent of James F. Burns, president
of the Portland Mining Company. The
statement was given out that Reimer
would be banished from the district
and intimated that if Burns comes to
his rescue he will be placed in the
bull pen.
Attorney Frank J. Hangs. who rep
resents the union miners and has been
a prominent lawyer in the district for
number of years. was also threat
ened with arrest, it Is said, if he comes
to the assistance of Reimer. 1t was in
Hangs Office that the arrest was
made.
The Portland mine has been operat-
ing continuously, with the exception
of about week, since the strike was
inaugurated with the union miners.
President Burns has granted every de-
mand of the miners and there was no
strike against the Portland. Reimer
who was arrested today was the lead
er of the Burns faction in the recent
political campaign when the man said
to be candidate for the Mine Own
ers' Association for assessor was de-
feated after an exciting campaign and
the union men supported by the Burns
faction elected. 1t has been repeated
ly stated that Burns incurred the en-
nifty Of the Mine Owners Association
by the stand taken in this battle.

IR0QU0IS DISASTER.
Fire Inspector FuIkerson Says Mistake
Occurred in Condition Of Skylights
and ventilators.

Chicago, Jan. 6-Fire Inspector
Fulkerson today said that the over
whelming mistake of the Iroquois dis
aster was the condition of the sky
lights and ventilators above the stage.
They were blocked and wired so that
they could not be opened. He said
that but for this there would have
been no loss of life and he added:
Cali the testimony given me forms
the story of incompetence, blunders,
and neglect upon the
part of the builders and managers of
the theater."

of the Supreme Court, for the purpose
of being formally examined for admis

Mr.. Fullen is strong believr in
the resources of his portion of the Ter.
ritory and is of the firm opinion that
the pressing need for the Pecos Val
ley country just now is rail conn. etion
with this portion of the TER tory.
Carlsbad and my home county, eddy,
are growing fast" he said. "and every
one seems to have better know edge
of this fact than do the peopll of
northern and western New Mexico.
One of the richest sections Of the Ter
ritory is now cut off and isolated from
the great whole by reason OF m gni-
ficent distances and insufficient rail
communication, and yet there are

MAY WHEAT TAKES A
JUMP AT THE / I.'ENlNG

Chicago, Jan. 6-Under the excited
bidding by the shorts who were fright
ened at the report of a clash between
Russian and Japanese troops, the de-
preston of consols and the pessimism
of continental hourses, May wheat
jumped 2 3-8@1-2 at the opening today.
At the crest of the rise the inevitable
profit taking resulted in reactions but
much of the advance held and the tone
ruled strong May corn advanced one

New York, July 21.-The cotton market opened quiet and steady at a decline of ? to points, which was considered only a partial response to disappointing Liver pool cables, continued uneasiness over the Red sea situation. generally favorable weather and bearish private crop ad- vices. But the market. as has been the case recently, cut loose from all the usual influences, and after the opening ruled generally steady to firm on moderate eov- ering movement and support. credited to certain southern and Wall street sources.
 Fluctuations were more or less irregular, but in a general way the market worked upward, with Liverpool rallying soon after the local opening, and New Orleans also showed firmness until in the late trading prices here were net 19G26 points higher on the new crop positions. August sold as high as o.50, a net advance of 9 points in the early trading, butt did not join in the afternoon spurt, remaining dull and comparatively easy around 1O-eO to 1o.67,

Transactions represented larger blocks than of late, and the market on the whole showed improved activity, with the total sales estimated at 300,000 bales. There was nothing In the neEs SO far as could be learned to account Tor the firm ness of prices and the advance seemed to be based almost entirely on technical market eonditi6n ns. with certain bull in- terests attempting to force the small short interest to cover, and catching moderate stop orders as prices worked upward.

Caldwell G Wards Market Letter.

By Miller & Co,
 New York. July 21.-First cables ascrlb- ed the early decline in Liverpool to polit- ical complications but captured steamer Malacca was allowed to pass out of the Suez canal bound for Russia as a prize. the public concluded the seizure must have been legal and that the cry for sat- isfaction was without warrant. If the vessel carried munitions of war for Japan Russia was clearly justified in seizing her, and Great Britain must aequiesce, no matter how bitter pill 1t might be. The market evidently took the view that se- rious political differences were thus re- moved and all market showed a buoyant tone. Even the strike in Fall River was lost sight of for the moment and there was a scamper of shorts here which car ried winter months 20 points above last nights and after some reaction leaves them still 13 to 15 points higher on the day, The old crop was advanced only 6 points. There were some reports of dam age to the growing crop, but these were not of a character to cause alarm except in an over-sold market Spinners have good orders for fall and winter shipments but most of the limits are an eighth to a quarter cent below the price established by the advance. Certain prominent spot interests were said to be sellers of De- tober and December above 9%. The next bureau report will be made from replies mailed on July 26, only five days away from today. From all appearances there will not be any striking change in the outlook during this short period and an excellent report is looked for August 8. The short interest has been materially re- duced by covering the past few days.
 Liverpool Is due to come to points higher on near and unchanged to point
 igher on the new.

New Orleans, July M.-Spot cotton dull and unchanged. Sales $50 bales, including 100 to arrive; delivered on contracts 100. Quotations unchanged Futures opened quiet and prices were l to b points lower than yesterdays close. Liverpool was not favorable to an aavance in the local mar ket, but the English market was soon flooded with buying orders from this side which gave the market a firm tone and prices here rose rapidly in the new crop positions. At the middle of the session the shorts were in the midst of a scare and runing for cover and the market showed more activity than it has for some weeks. At the highest level large lots of October and December were offered. The buying power was sufficient to absorb of- ferings until longs commenced to take profits, this caused the market to ease off In the trade August sold off five points to 10N. advanced to 1OG and finally eased off to 10.52.
