PossibIe That 0nicer VIII He Sued
 After He Quits Cabinet.
 Washington Special to New York
 "As 1 have said before, am going to resign from the cabinet in the fall" said Secretary Morton today, meeting of the navy department. But there is absolutely no truth In any reports or friction between the President and nay. self. I entered the cabinet with the called upon to stay in 1t permanently. and by next fall the time will hay. come when I oan properly get out of
 This statement of Mr. Morton's was made immediately on his return from the. White House. Earlier In the day he had pooh-poohed the rumors 0f me there was nothing in them. When he got back from the White House he saw the newspaper men standing together tributed the information above quotod
 From these facts the assumption has gained ground that MT IT, MSr,tons 6I,an s, an. shs President. One reason for this advice appears in the report that Attorney General Moody has turned over to MT. Roosevelt the rebate case of the Atchi- son, Topeka and Santa Fe, MT. Morton 8 old railroad.

 On this point MT. Moody, it Is report ed, disagrees with Judson Harmon, the special counsel who has been employed on the case. MT. Harmon. who is an ex.Attorney General. takes the ground that the only course to bo taken ts the prosecution of the officers. Mir. Moody has been of the opinion that action against the corporation will be enougf.
 Feeling that the matter Is too impor- tant for him to settle. and perhaps al- so because Mr. Harmon has asked that the President be consulted. Mr. Moody has, 1t is reported, turned oyer the pa- pers to Mir Roosevelt for decision on the question.
 This sheds further light upon MT. Morton's announcement of his impend- ing resignation. The President Is be- lieved to have taken >tbe view that if the announcement came after the news leaked out about the santa Ts proaeau. things might be linked in the public mind, and the supposition become cur- rent that MT.

Some Facts About Lafayette Railway

 Litigation.
 Lafayette, May 16.-(Special )-The Advertisers opelika correspondent in his communication yesterday made some unintentional errors in his refer ence to the litigation over the destruc- tion of the Lafayette Railway. He stated that the plaintiffs and defen- dants are residents of Chambers Coun- ty. The suit is by the State of Ala bama against the Lafayette Railway Company. There is only one plaintiff, the State of Alabama, and this plaintiff does not reside altogether in Chambers County. The bill was not filed before Judge sayre at Montgomery, and Judge Sayre did not make the bill returnable before Chancellor Whiteside at Opelika. The bill was filed at Lafayette, In Chambers County, and will be tried in the Chancery Court of that county. Lawyers of Lafayette and Opelika rep- resent the railway company, and law yers of Opelika and Montgomery rep resent the State of Alabama.
 After a very successful years work under the presidency of Dr. John P. Neff, the commencement exercises of Lafayette College are in progress this week. Rev. Hoyt M.

SILVER CITY HAS LIBRARY
AND READING ROOM

The library, reading o and wom-
ans exchange was opened at Silver
City, says the Independent, on October
2 for business, under the charge of
Mesdames Fielder and Barnes, who
have rented and ~attractively fitted the
Shepard store building on Billiard
street. A public library association is
to be established and these ladies have
been the recipients of a large number
of books donated by friends of the
reading room enterprise, and which
are held as a nucleus of the public
association when organized. In addi-
ton, those in charge have purchased
a large number of books from the Ia
bard Inn library of Philadelphia and
have upon their table all the latest
magazines and periodicals. The pres
ent arrangement as to the reading
room is that of a membership card,
costing 81 per month, and a charge of
five cents per book taken out when
held for a period not exceeding ten
days. Receipts from these sources are
used in paying the expenses Of the as
sociation and in the purchase of new
books. The membership card en-
titles the holder to the privilege of
the reading room, and strangers in
troduced by members are welcome
without charge.
Those not holding membership cards
may take out books by depositing the
price of the book, such amount to be
refunded, less the reading fee, on the

MINUTES OF MEETING
OF DEMlNG TRUST ZEE

The following. from the Thursday
issue of the Deming Headlight, gives
a pretty good idea of conditions in
Luna county's growing capital:
At the regular meeting of the board
of trustees of this village, held on
Monday last, the following proceed
ings were had:
In the absence of Chairman Field,
Trustee Clark was chosen chairman
pro TEN.
The following accounts we're al
lowed and warrants drawn therefor:
Deming Ice & Electric company,
September street lights, 800.
ID. B. Stephens, sheriff, fees and
feeding prisoners, $21.25.
Cooke Chapman, justice fees for
village cases, S2.55.
Salary accounts for September, s45.
Total, $3.50.
The clerk was instructed to call the
attention of the Deming Ice & Electric
company to the poor street lighting
service during the month of Septem-
Der, and to notify them to live up to
the provisions of their contract.
A building permit was granted to j..
A. MahOney to erect a corrugated iron
&NNANiDhi VAL iNtNs III inc ANdl VI ulo
building on Gold avenue, known as
the Palace drug store.
The petition of Ralph c. Ely for a
franchise for the erection of an cleo
trio power plant in the village of Dem
ing, was laid over until Wednesday,
October 4, 1905, at 1880 O'Clock p. m.
The petition of W. J.. Clark, ct al,
for a franchise for the erection of a
water worsk system in the village of
Deming was denied, all members be
ing present and voting aye.
The clerk was instructed TO CORE
spond with w. N. Small, manager of
the Ell Paso foundry, with a view to
securing balls and chains to use in
working the village prisoners on our
streets.
The reports of the treasurer and
clerk showing a balance of $1,603.77 in
the village treasury on the 30th day
of September, 1905, were read, re-
ceived and ordered filed.

Wednesday, October 4, 1905, at 1870

An unspeakable Turk lowered the
American colors in a wrestling bout
at London the other night, when All
med Madrali defeated Tom Jenkins at
catch-as-catch-can for $500 a side and
a purse of $3.50.
The poor showing made by Yale In
the preliminary skirmish indicates
that extensive changes will be made
in the line up of the eleven for the
big games yet to Gomez
The need of big men for the line
was shown in the game between Wis.
consin and the Naperville team. The
Badger coaches have begun skirminsh-
ing for beef.
Columbia's first clash of the season
was a disappointment. The eleven
failed to show any real foot ball
strength. Fumbling characterized the
work of the Princeton Tigers. Harvard
showed strength in aggressive tactics,
but the recruits proved proficient only
as fumblers. Cornell put up a weak
defense. Carlisle Indians gave a fine
example of offensive playing, and a
fair exhibition of defensive work.
west Point begins the season with a
promising lot of players.
Mayor Dunno says that as long as
the bouts are on the level the lid will
not be put oil in Chicago. But takers,
alleged pugilists and swindlers must,
he says, be barred. Taking has lone
more than all the performers to queer
the game, and this doesn't apply to
Chicago alone.
Mike (Twin) Sullivan has put in a
claim for the lightweight title, on the
strength of fighting Joe Cans to a
draw.
Jack Jeffries is anxious to meet AL
Kaufman, conqueror of Harry Foley,
but it is probable that Marvin Hart
VIII be given the first chance-that is.
if Hart a be coaxed outside the bor-
ders OF Kentucky long enough to fight.
Chicago is pinning it's hopes to the
forlorn belief that st. Louis and Wash
ington may be able to clip a few points
OFF the Athletics percentage.
what Chicago fans can't understand
IS what the Cubs want with players
that Cincinnati has turned loose.
The moving pictures show that Mel
son used his head in clinches with
Britt. Also they show that Britt did
not use his head in clinches or out of
them.
Captain Hurley, Of Harvard, was
much more badly injured than ap-
peared at first when he hurdled he
line in practice, the other day. Hur-
ley landed on his head, and was
caught under a mas of players.
1t is expected that Britt and Nelson
will come to some sort of an agree
ment about another fight when they
meet in Gotham this month. II is
hardly probable Nelson will take on
any Of the pretenders before he gives
Britt another chance.
The Iowa foot ball eleven made ,

thar the three disabled players will be
