 HELD AT MOCTEZUMA

is undisputed that there was no re sistance and this is the fact which has probably led to the arrest of Superin- tendent Wyne.
 Leaving Douglas.
 On the afternoon of July 9th agents of Mir. Graham in this city bought a number of Winchester rifles and re- volvers at the Copper Queen store; a large amount of ammunition was also purchased: the arms and ammunition were carried to the Roy hotel where they were kept until the arrival of a special train from Bisbee when the arms and ammunition was taken ae ross the line, through the agency of Custom Broker Andrews, who had a ranged for their passage. Lieut.. Juhnny Brooks. of the Arizona rang CTS, terdered his resignation to go with Mir. Graham and it was reported at the time that he was to head the armed posse. It is not known now just who went in the party.
 Future Developments.
 What proceeding will HOW be instituted by the Kansas City people. or what court will be called on to fix the damages on account of Graham taking possession of the mine cannot now be stated. Judge Half went to Bisbee last night and Attorney Arya- ga went to Fl Paso.
 Judge Richardson is at MOctezuma looking after the interests of MT Ora ham and the other prisoners.
 At the Mine.
 The latest news from the mine was to the effect that work was continuing. Last week Mir Graham sent to Doug las for a stenographer to come to the mines. but this order was counter handed. Mir. A. c. Davis, who had been employed as auditor Of the En- senada company, has tendered his l~esignation.

HEAD-ON COLLISION.
santa E'e Passenger Train Wrecked,
But No One Killed.

santa Fe passenger train No. s, east
bound from Denver, and which would
have been due in Topeka at ) o'clock
this afternoon, was wrecked in a head
on collision with an extra freight tain
early this morning three miles east of
CaddOa, Col. which is half way between
La Junta and the Kansas state line.
While both engines and a number of
cars on each train were smashed badly,
there. were no fatalities. None of the
passengers were injured save that some
Of them received a few slight bruises
incident to the shaking up they re-
ceived. From the reports received Of the
wreck at the general Offices of the COM
pany only two persons were injured.
I l.le We're an express messenger named
strong, who was hurt severely about
the hips, and mail clerk named Woods
whose injuries were not stated.
As to the cause Of the accident the re-
ports received are rather vague The
extra freight was in charge of Engineer
8cQuiddy and he had been holding his
train on a siding. He had no orders
against No. 6 and il Is presumed that
M should have stayed on the siding
until It went by as the passenger trains
have the right OF way. But the re-
ports Do not show just what his par
ticuiar orders were. At any rate he
pulled out Of the SIDING and had Just
track when the collision occurred. The
passenger train was running under the
/ guidance of Engineer Simmons at a
rate of about thirty miles an hour and
the impact of the cossion was terrific.

they became locked and did not topple

AS to rights numbered 90, The
evidence shows that the ditch was
large enough to carry $3.50 inches.
and that such enlargement related to
June l, 1884, the evidence, however,
shows that up to the time of trial
there has not been applied to q
beneficial use under said ditch to
exceed 1855, inches of water; for
that reason the decree must limit
that right to the actual application
of water to beneficial use.

complaint has been fileda aend evidence
introduced in this case, l would say
that their rights are embraced with

their rights are measured by the
rights of the New York Canal com

CORTELYOU CHANGES
POSTOFFICE PLAN
Everybody Will Have d Rating and the
Good will be Retained

al of some red tape artist in the
nation al capital, even to buying a
cuspidor.
Then all the postmasters are to
rated on the merit plan. Records
of efficiency will be kept in the
Washington offices, and every man
will have a rating. He will be
eirher excellent, good, fair or poor.
Unless he keeps in the first or Sec
ond class he will not hang on very
long.
But where does the senator and
the congressman get off? So far as
they have been heard from they
profess to be satisfied. Settling
postof6ce fights is generally con-
ceded to be the bane of the congress-
mans life. 1t is very nice to have
spoils to distribute; but when there
is only one Office, and the town is
divided into two bitterly hostile
camps over who is to get that one
job, the congressman stands to lose.
Many congressman has been
defeated for reelection by some
pestiferous postofdce fight. Under
the new regime he will sit back and
smile and pass it up to the post
master general.
Of course, the United States sem
ate may get jealous of its sacred
"prerogatives." The senate has to
confirm" these appointments, If
any senator wants to protect his
pork" he may refusr to confirm e
man with an excellent rating, and
insist on a henchman with no rat
ing. Such possibilities make the
new departure all the more inter-
estiug.
There are about $4,000 post
offices which will be affected by the
new policy.

this canal and much larger acreage
than the canal is capable Of carrying
water with which to irrigate. But
the appropriation in this instance
cannot be based upon the acreage,
for the reason that the carrying
capacity of the canal is shown to be
insutt1c lent to supply the acreage.
AS to right numbered 131, the
New York Canal Company. This
claimant introduced in evidence a
water notice made by one Burns,
dated November IS, 1882; a water
notice made by Foote, dated October
26, 1888; water notice made by
Hail and othets, dated January "a
1896; water notice of A. II. Eagle
son, dated July 27, 1896, and a
water notice made by the Ada
County Farmers Irrigation company,
dated March, % 1898, but there was
no evidence to support any Of these
notices, showing that the same we're
posted as required by law, OF that
work was commenced within the time
required by law.
This claimant introduced another
location made by W. G. Annett,
dated March, % 1900, which was
followed by the required steps
provided ny the statute, and this
right relates to that location.
What has been said with reference
to the Burns location, applies also
to the Pioneer Irrigation district, as
that claimant based its earliest right
upon the same location for the
Phyllis canal.
AS to right numbered II, dated
June, l 1865, decreed to W. H.
Ridenbaugh and A. Rossi, the same
is allowed for power purposes only,
and the decree will direct that the
same shall be used for that purpose
only, and after use, returned to the
river. AS to right numbered Is,
dated June /, 1865, the Boise Valley
Irrigation Ditch company. This
right ia allowed from the head Of
the Farmers Union Ditch company Z
ditch, as the same it carried through
such ditch to the point of use
AS to right numbered 127, dated
July ., 1894, the Farmers Unior
Ditch company. The evidence ir
this case shows a full compliance
with the statute as to appropriation
of water, and the same relates to th'
date of the posting of the notice
under the statute.
As to right numbered 60, datt
June l, 1875, the Farmers Co
operative Ditch company. Th'
notice introduced in that case wa
dated before the law providing TO
such notice was passed by th'
legislature of the territory ant
therefore can have no bearing upol
fixing the date of the right.
AS to rights numbered s6 ana lo5

:Tnlv l, 1888, There is no evidence
that such notices we're posted or tn

Washington, D. c., Dec. 6-The
most important changes in the or.
ganizations of the United States
mail service were not indicated in
the general order which was made
public couple of days ago.
A long talk with Postmaster Cen
eral Cortelyou brings out the fact
that first class po stofices are to be
included in the merit system, and
no longer are to be treated as politi-
cal spoils. This news is sensation
al enoug to stagger the politicians
and the postmasters, but they will
soon be convinced.
Good postmasters will be retained
in Office! That is the simple an
nouncement which the public is
asked to take literally. No matter
if the county chairman is deposed
and the rival faction gets the organ
ization. No matter if the editor of
the other paper insists that it is now
his turn. No matter what the
congressman and both United States
senators may say. Of course that
sounds revolutionary. 1t is lard
dose to swallow. But Cortelyou is
not given to talking and behind
Cortelyou is Roosevelt.
The first principle entering into
Cortelyou's reorganization scheme
is that the heads of of the larger
postohces-and that means all
above the grade of fourth class
are to have larger powers and
fuller measure of discretion.
Up to this time the postmaster
has been seriously hampered by the
Washington department. He hac

yet he could not turn around with
