road construction camp on the new
line at Tolar, Roosevelt County, who
killed a colored laborer there on Au-
gust 9th, was given preliminary
hearing at Portales last Friday and

suaded him to take up the quarrel.
Red posted himself just outside the
entrance to the, kitchen, bowie knife
in hand, and when Stout attempted to
pass out slashed him across the alb

cause his bowels to protrude. Stout
fell to the ground, but fortunately fell

grasped and rising again struck che
negro on the head with it, scattering
his brains in all directions

CLEAN UP FOR SUNDAY.
Pertinent and Kindly Suggestion That
the Streets Be Made Clean, Com
Portable and Cool for Sunday

| To the Editor of the New Mexican.
1 understand that Sunday next
about 500 Albuquerque citizens will he
in the city for the purpose of watch
ing the baseball game between the
Mcintosh nine of that city and the
Santa Fe Central nine of this city
Everyone who has had occasion to &c
to the Santa Fe depot during the
past three or four months knows, and
that to his own disgust and detriment,
that the streets leading from the de-
pot to the Plaza are very dusty, very
uncomfortable and very dirty. On
Sunday next, especially, this town
should be clean and cool. The city
council and the city marshal should
make a special effort during the re-
mainder of this week to sprinkle the
streets leading from the Santa re
depot to the Plaza, and also the busi-
ness portion and the principal streets
elsewhere in the city. This should be
done without delay and thoroughly.
The street committee of the city coun-
Gil and the city marshal should make
a special effort to have this sprink-
ling done and to get the city clean
and wholesome before Sunday next.
Every citizen, and especially every
property owner, should be anxious to
have the Albuquerque citizens carry
home good and favorable impress
sion and opinion of our town. If this
should be otherwise, their visit will
be more of a detriment than benefit.
Is there any patoritism and public
spirit in the city council and in the
city marshal to do what everybody
knows would be great benefit to this
town? hope there is, but if not, the
citizens should combine. raise fund
and appoint a committee TO supervise
the cleaning and sprinkling of the
streets. This will be another way of
paying taxes, but if it must be done,
it must be done. You will oblige
many of our citizens If you will agi-
tate this matter in your columns.

ENSIGN WADE
RESPONSIBLE
Only Surviving Member of Ben.
nington's Officers Held Ac-
countabIe
BOILERS WERE SOUND
Explosion Caused By to Much Pres.
sure.-.Steam Gauge Was Shut Of
on Boiler "B" By Fireman.

Washington, Aug 22.-Secretar,
Bonaparte yesterday received and a,
soon as he had himself read. made
public the findings of the court of in
quiry which investigated the explosion
on the gunboat Bennington at Sar
Diego, California, on July 81 The
nndlngs were complete surprise fol-
they at once set at rest the stories
that had been circulated to the effect
that the Bennington's boiler and per
haps those of other naval vessels ol
the same age were defective.
AS matter of fact, the court found
the explosion resulted from the clos
ing of a valve which connected the eX
ploded boiler with it's steam gauge Sc
that the pressure on the boiler may
have been several hundred pounds t,J
the square inch when the accident oc
Cured.
While praise was accorded to the
officers and ships company for their
conduct. during the narrowing scenes
following the accident, the officers
and men who were responsible, in the
opinion of the court, are pointed out
and court martial proceedings sug-
gested in the case of the only one of
them surviving, Ensign Charles T.
Wade.
The court consisted of Commodore
Stevenson, retired, and Captain e. J.
Moore and Captain Thomas S. Phelps.
The finding recites the arrival of the
Bennington at San Diego and says:
"The court is also of the opinion
that d. N. Holland, fiPman, second
class, u. s. N, who was fireman on
duty firing boiler b at and before,
the time of the explosion, did by mis-
take, shut off the steam valve con-
Meeting boiler b with its steam
gauge, instead of the air cock, as di-
rected, thus. preventing the gauge
from recording the steam pressure on
it's boiler; that Frank DeCourtland,
oiler and acting water tender, U. S. ~,
on watch in charge of this boiler from
about 9:15 a. M, until the time of the
explosion, did fail to observe that this
steam gauge was not recording and
did continue pushing fires on this
boiler and further, when leaks devel-
oped from excessive pressure, did fail
to relieve this pressure which should
have been done at once; that e. b.
Ferguson, chief machinist's mate, U.
S. N, on watch in charge of the en-
gin and fire rooms, did fail to inspect
boiler b under his charge while
steam was being raised, and did fail to
cause this steam gauge to be connect
ed with boiler; said D. N. Holland,
fireman, second class, U. S. N, Frank
DeCourtland, oiler, U. s. NJ, and e. b.
Ferguson, chief machinist's mate, U.
S. n, are now all dead, therefore no
further proceedings can be taken
against them"

ALBUQUERQUE EASTERN
AND TORRANCE ROSWELL
w. S. HopeweI is Sure That Both Pro.
jects Will Be Accomplished in
Due Time.

Hon. w. S. HopewelI has returned
from a six-weeks' visit to New York
and other eastern financial centers He
has done a good deal of work for New
MeXico's interests especially, in the
railway construction line Mr.. Hope
well feels sanguine that the completion
of the Albuquerque Eastern from Nor
iarty to Albuquerque, and the branch
to the Hagan coal fields is sure, and
that the road and the branch line will
be in active operation within a few
mopths. There Is considerable costly
and hard work to be done in the Tier
as Canon, and this will take time. The
other railroad project contemplated by
Mr.. Hopewell and his associates is
moving along nicely with a very fair
prospect of having actual construction
work on the Torranee-ROswell extern
sion commence within a reasonable
space of time. Mr. Hopewell is now
preparing everything for trip over
this line from Torrance to Roswell,
within the next ten days, and will be
accompanied by an expert engineer
and railroad builder, who will be sent
to New Mexico for the purpose of in
specting and investigating this project
by the eastern capitalists whom Mr.
Hopewell has interested therein. To
be sure, much depends upon the report
of this engineer, but if it is favorable
and Mr.. Hopewell hopes and believes
it will be, the money for the extension
will be forthcoming in short order and
actual railroad building on the line
may commence before snow flies.
Mr.. HopeweIl also stated to repre-
sentative of the New Mexican, that he
was confident from conversations with
leading eastern financiers and polite
ians, that public sentiment favored
joint statehood for New Mexico and
and that in his opinion, no
other kind of statehood was possible
for the two Territories for many years
to come He, himself, while east, ex-
pressed his opinion 10 many who asked
him concerning the matter that joint
statehood would be best for the two
Territories, and whenever he possibly
can, he is putting in a lick for joint
statehood
