for saying he would not vote for dis.
pensary cleaning, and endeavored to
make the point that II lie were against
measures looking to the bctterment
OF the State he was poor servant and
ought to be asked to resign. He was
not supposed to be the master but the
servant OF the people.
Senator Tillman was particularly
explicit In saying that lie had come to
TiIzah not to tell the people what they
should do but to give them the bene.
tit Of his advice and experience. They
were free to act according to their
consciences and should give the issu,
prayer1ul, earnest consideration. II
all acted as he did there would be no
liquor drinking at all, but as some
were going to drink whether or no,
the evil should be minimIzod aud 6he
people s1ould get the benefits from
the money spent.
Senator Brice replied briefly, saying
again that he was opposed to the
whole dlspensary business, that the
issue was liquor or no liquor and not
Tillman or Brlce. He hoped the peo
pie would bear the real issue in mind,
There was much laughter and up
plause throughout the speaking,
especially at Mr.. Tillman's repeated
assaults upon Mr.. Brice and The En-
quirer aud his ctitlcisms Of those who
called themselves Christians and sat
In Judgment upon Others.
The crowd was orderly and listened
attentively to all that was said, many
standing throughout. 1t WAS evident
that Mr.. Tlllman has many friends
here and 1t was the opinion OF many
that tho meeting was due more to
friendship to him than to an express
sion upon the dispcnsary question
The senator stated that he had heard
that as he was born, politically, at
Tirzah he was to be buried hero today,
but there we're few evidences THAI a
Tlllman funeral was desired. His de-
mand that the governor take charge
Of the diSpensary situation in the
name Of the people drew hearty ap.
plause. Senator Brlce declared him
self as also peing in favor Of this &C.
tion on the part Of the governor.

Tropic, 2,340 tons, Capt. Barber, ar
rived IN that port Wednesday after a
voyage that had lasted nearly three
months and which was filed with ex-
citement. The second mate, purser
and 5 seamen are missing. Sailing
from Valparaiso, Chile, June 81, the
'rropic met with Lad weather at once
and on June 28, while or Putu and

she had gono hard aground mot over
200 yards from the beach. High seas
were running and 1t was realized that
something must be done.
The second mate, purser and 5 sea-
men put out in the first life boat for
Constitution but never returned. All
night the seas dashed over the Tropc
and the 20 men on board huddled in
the cabins and momentarily expected
the end. Morning brought hope in the
sight OF men on Shorc-but there
seemed no way to get to the ship No
boat could live in the breakers and no
swimmer could make the shore. A
happy thought came to the captain

A dispatch from Rome says all Italy
Is suffering from terrible depression
because Of the news from the south,
where one Of the worst earthquakes
ever experienced occurred Friday. AL.
Though the earthquake was felt all
over Calabria and to certain extens
In Sicily, the worst news came from
Pizzo and Monteleone and from 1S
villages which are said to have been
completely destroyed.
According to the latest news receiy.
ed 370 personsl have been killed and a
great number injured. 1t is as yet i'm.
possible to even estimate the property
looses. The shock WAS felt at Q .56
O'Clock Friday morning. 1t lasted for
ls seconds at Catanz2rO and soon there.
after was felt at Messlna, Reggie,
Plscopio, Tripiarno, Sammaro, Cessan-
iti, Nadia, OlivAdi and other points.
Scenes Of indescribable terror en-.
sued. Women aroused from their sleep
rushed half clothed into the streets
screaming with fear, carrying their
babies and dragging along their other
children and calling for help on the
madonna and the saints. The men es-
capped into the open with their fami-
lies, all calling on their favorite saints
for protection.
The cafes were taken by assault by
the strangely garbed crowd, but as
daylight broke without repetition of
the earthquake the crowd gradually
melSed away until by 8 O'Clock the
streets had almost assumed their nor
NAL appearance except in the ruined
villages where the inhabitants had no
homes to 60 to.
The general confusion was added to
by dreadful cries from the jails where
the prisoners were beside themselves
With fright and in some cases mutini-
ed, but fortunately all the prisoners
were kept within bounds. Troops, en-
gineers and doctors have been hurried
to the scenes Of the disaster to assist

Southwestern system. announced that the road had engineers in the field with the intention of building a line from Dawson, N. NJ, to a point below Santa Rosa. N. M. to provide a direct line from the important Dawson coal fields to the Phelps-Dodga mines in Arizona. The line will effect a saving both in distance and in grade, and will pass through Las Vegas. providing a new outlet for that district. Ii will also free the Phelps Dodge company from the traffic arrangement with the Rock Island for the present rOutn giv- ing absolutely independent control of the road from the coal mines to the copper mines.
 The new line will be almost exactly a north and south line and will prob |hly be over two hundred and fifty niles in lengti- l. will pass through COlfax. Mora, San Miguel and Leon ard Wood counties and will afford an outlet to an immense district which la at present without railway connection. IL will penetrate central New Mexico aEout midway between the present Lawson line which conects with the Rock Island at Tucumcari, and the Santa Fe Central railway.

CHARGED BRIBERY
Colorado Senator Says He Was
Offered Money to Seat Adams

Colorado seems to be vieing with Cali
fornia for the right TO the title of rot
zen borough. Both of these States have
succeeded in gaining the contempt of
thtir sister States.
Senator r. w. Morgan, Republican, of
Boulder county. announced at the OPEN
ing of the General Assembly that 81 500
had been offered him and $3.50 hao already
been given him for his vote for Governor
Adams DemocraD in the contest for the
office of Governor. He produced the
money which he said he had received and
handed it to District Attorney George
Stidger, who will file charges in court
against the men, who, Senator Morgan
said, had attempted to bribe him.
Senator Morgan named James Herbert.
vice president and general manager of
the Colorado Southern railroad, and
Postmaster Daniel Sullivan of Cripple
Greek as the men who bribed him.
