Granville w. Shaw. of the Louis
Vile Office of United States Engi-
neers, will begin work with small
force of men Thursday on the Wave
Rock" dixie, which was badly dam
aged by ice during the past winter.
II will require about three weeks
to complete the repairs.
The dixie Is located near the In
diana chute. at y point which was
one of the most dangerous TO navi-
CATION on the Ohio river before the
government built the bikes to alter
the current. Mr.. Shaw Is there to-
day making an examination with a
view TO ascertaining what materials
and how many men will be neeessa-
ry for the work.
Wave Rock" is on the Kentucky
shore. and formerly projected far in
to the river. In passing the curve II
was necessary for boats to turn com
pletely around on account of the sin
gular nature of the current. The
rock was graded by the government,
and boats now pass over 1t. bikes on
both sides of the river were necessa-
ny to prevent an eddy.

Recent Heavy Rains Interfere
With the Hauling.
A $4,000 Horse Power Lock and
Dam Plant to BE Installed
at Hale Bar.
WORK ON WAVE ROCK" DIXIE

The tie men complain of dull
times In the tie business because of
the recent heavy rains.
Mr. j. NJ. Hogan. Of the Standard
Tie Co., stated this morning that the
rain interfered with the hauling Of
ties to the banks Of the rivers, and
the boats, what few were running,
are experiencing dun times. The
lies have nearly all been cleared
from the river banks and until haul
ing picks up again there viii be
little doing"
The tie companies are not exper-
fencing any more trouble with short
age In deck labor except the Aver a.
Lord Co, which runs several boats
and works many tie carriers. The
Standard Tie Co. however, is ex-
periencing little trouble from this
source at present.

Ration in some things, but as in the

AN IMPORTANT DECISION.
Judge Pope Rules in the Matter of
Juries in City Court, Before
Justice of Peace.

Judge VIM. H. Pope has rendered
a decision in District Court that is
of great Importance because it sets
a criterion that can be used by law
yers and citizens in times to come.
He has decided that a justice of the
peace cannot be forced to grant a
jury in the trial of minor city cases
that have been brought before him.
The case upon which the opinion
was rendered was that of the Terri
tory of New Mexico ex rel J.. B.
Frickey against +. B. Bailey, justice
of the peace MI. Frickey a been
arrested on the charge of selling real
estate without a license, in violation
of city ordinance. He was brought be-
fore Justice Bailey for trial when the
defendant demanded a jury. The city
objected and Judge Bailey sustained
the city. Then the defendant brought
proceedings in district court by
which Justice Bailey was required
to show why he should lot
grant the jury. After hearing this
case Judge Pope rendered the de-
cision.
The original case against Mr.. Frick
ey will now be up for trial before
Justice Bailey, and according to the
new opinion, Justice Bailey is not
compelled to grant a jury.
w. w. Gatewood represented Mr..
Frickey, and K. K. Scott represented
the city.

county products are sent to eastern
Arizona where there is a good mark
et.. Colfax and Mora county fruits
go into southern Colorado and Kan
sas. Some of Santa Fe county's sup
erior fruit has been sold readily in
Kansas City and st. Louis. According
to the best calculations, this years
fruit crop, fresh and dried, will foot
up at a fair estimate, about twenty
million pounds, and will bring to the
producers and owe a net price of
one cent and a half per pound. or
about $500, 900, In addition, there
has been a great deal consumed at
home and considerable has gone to
waste, especially early peaches and
other early fruit that could not be
shipped.
FOL an arid and dry country, the
Sunshine Territory has made a good
record fer the yea of our Lord 1905,
in. the fruit raising line. The chances
are that this record will continue
and grow and grow. One orchard
AOoI l. ny - AAh6Si
man, will market it's entire product
Of apples, amounting to between
10000 and 10000 boxes at forty
pounds each, in Texas at an average
net figure of two cents and a fraction
per pound. The apple crop of the
Pecos Valley can be safely figured
at $50, 900 boxes. That of San Juan
county $4,000 boxes. of Santa Fee. Rio
Arriba and Taos counties at 10000
boxes. 1t can therefore be seen that
the estimate of 10000 pounds for
the entire fruit crop is not al all ex-
orbitant. This means that the fruit
crop of this commonwealth in value
vas more than one-half the amount
credited to New Mexico by the di-
rector of the mint of the production
of precious metals, during the fiscal
year ending June the Goth, just past.
1t is but proper to say, that the rain
fall during the season of 1905 was
above the average and was quite ev-
emily distributed throughout the fruit
growing sections. Better methods of
cultivation have obtained and many
trees set out four, five and six years
ago, came into bearing this year. The
growing industry is now well
established in the Sunshine Territory
and must continue and grow as 1T Is
and a money maker for the
fruit and horticulturists who
grow the fruit, for the middle men
sell it, and for the people who
buy and eat it.

NEW MExtco,s FRUIT CROP.

From Santa Fe New Mexican.
The New Mexican has Investigated
the extent and value of this years
fruit crop in the Territory and while
these Investigations have not proven
entirely successful on account of va
rfous and sundry difficulties, this pa
per nevertheless can say that this
years fruit crop is the largest and
finest ever produced and has brought
and will bring in nor money to the
fruit growers and to the mfddlemen
than any crop ever raised heretofore
The seasons and the rainfall in nearly
all parts of New Mexico have been
sf~ngular1y propitious this year and
the markets have been, and are good.
Indeed, New Mexico fruit is now be
ing shipped as far as Chicago and
sells well Ghavesx and Eddy county
apples, peaches and other fruits sup
ply the large demands in many of
the popluous Texas towns. Santa Fe
county and Espanola fruit is handled
by Denver and Pueblo dealers. San
Juan products fill the demand in
southwestern Colorado and further
ty orchards sell their products in
El Paso, in Mexico and in the Arizona
mining towns. Lincoln county. fruit
Is also shipped and sold in Ell Paso-
