Shortage Of Silver-Price OF
Metal Up.

San Francisco, Dec. lS.-The con-
tinued high price of silver, between
G5 and &c cents per ounce. is causing
heavy shipments of Mexican dollars
melted into bullion through this port,
Seattle and Vancouver to the Orient.
The shipments are being sent by
the Wells-Fargo Express from Mexl'
can points under heavy guard in
the express company cars.
1t is said that during the past SIX
teen days thirteen millions in silver
bullion have been brought out OF
Mexico for shipment to the far east
from the coast. In financial circles
the predictions are heard that silver
is going to seventy cents because the
surplus production is reduced while
the demand is constantly growing.

Reports.

A number of Texas papers have been
publishing statement that Judge
William Fl. Pope performed a cere,
mony marrying a negress to a white
man, and are making uncompliment,
airy remarks in regard to same.
The friends of Judge Pope are in
dignant over the statements and are
loud in their protests against them.
Judge Pope is not in the Territory but
in his absence Judge Mann, one OF his
friends and who is holding court in
the place of Judge Pope during his
absence has made denial. A part o
Judge Mann's statement as published
in the Record is as follows
"Of course in New Mexico, wher
Judge Pope is SO well and favorabl
known, no one would believe such
report, but in Texas the report nigh

TIGERS IL: INDIANS S.
a Snirited Football Game at Las W
gas Sunday-Dolah Moyah
Injured.

The football game Sunday between
the U. S. Indian School team OF TINS
city and the Tigers of Las vegas
played at the latter city, resulted IN
a score of 12 to in favor of the zig
ers, The game was marred by only
one unpleasant feature which was the
injury of Dolah Moyah, an Indian. he
received a deep scalp wound which Is
quite painful but not of serious ma
ture.
A large crowd witnessed the game
and the players were repeatedly ap
plauded. After defeating the Indians
the Las Vegas boys showed the proper
spirit by entertaining the reo iiieh i.
with a big dinner and reception III
the evening.
Another game, to be played mere

Houses, who believed that the MAORI
ty of the people affected wanted joint
statehood but that opinion has since
been completely eradicated. No one
is SO stupid on this question now as
not to know that the sentiment in the
two territories is against the Bever.
idge bill.
There are a few loud takers here
from New Mexico in favor of jointure
Or course, it is not difficult to tell
why. AT home where they are known
and their motives are understood, their
talk affects no one. Here for a while
they were apparently without opposi
tion, but within the last week other
delegations have arrived from the ter.
ritores and the loud takers are now
less conspicuous.
Change Of Heart.
1t has been truly said that if New
Mexico and Arizona should be admit
ted as one state, which is among the
improbable things. Those who are
now SO anxious for it in the hope OF
political gain, would be the first to
become disappointed.
The crumbs that drop from the
Presidential table, have a potent ef-
feet in changing the minds Of some.
There are cases of that kind from
New Mexico here now. Heretofore
they have been very pronounced sep
arate statehood men, but after they
saw the recommendation of the Pres
ident on the subject, there was sud
den change Comment is unnecessary.
The consistent joint statehood man,
whatever his motives may be, is one
kind, the follow who shifts ends like
a weather cock, is another kind. Again
comment is unnecessary.
The joint statehood bill has long
rocky road to travel before it will be-
come a law. The load is too heavy.
You may look for breakdown.

The acuteness of the effect produced

was looked upon with serenity SO lone
as the soundness of credits had nc

a delicate one the shock to the stock
