FIRST TERM OF COURT.
For Quay County Starts Out With a
Busy Week-Thirty-tWo Indict-
ments Returned.
Special to the New Mexican.

Special to the New Mexican.
Tucumcari, June 23.-The first week
of the first regular term of the dis
trict court for Quay County has been
very busy one, and as a result a
great deal of business has been trans.
acted.
The case of the Territory VS.. Peter
Essary for the murder of Oscar Simp.
son a year and half ago, has been
concluded and a verdict of not guilty
returned. 1t is to be doubted if, in the
history of criminal trials in the Terri
tory, there was ever a more evenly,
rapidly and courteously conducted
trial Ex-Chief Justice e. V. Long, Of
Las Vegas. assisted by F. c. Matteson,
appeared for the prosecution, while
with the Messrs. Hittson, looked after
the interests of the accused. While
both sides were alert and their respec-
tive interests jealousy guarded, 1t was
a source of continued comment that
these white haired veterans of the
New Mexico bar, Judges Long and
Sherry attempted none of the trick
cry 50 often apparent in so stubbornly
fought a criminal case, but were at
all times the souls of honor and stately
courtesy. Judge Mann, as well as all
others concerned, was delighted with
the manner in which this case was dis
posed of. The verdict, also, seems TO
give general satisfaction.
To date the grand jury has returned
so indictments, and, judging from the
busy appearance of the grand jury
room, its labors have only fairly begun.
Merritt C. Mechem, the new district
attorney, is making an enviable repu-
tation for himself as public official of
ability, conscientiously alert and justly
aggressive.
The murder cases of Louis Keeper,
Val Carnes, John Meyers and John
Young will go to Guadalupe County on
a change of venue and are set for trial
for the first Wednesday of the October
term of that court.
AS IdS Dtc1 tuC CdoS oihSC lC oo
sumed judicial office, Judge Edward A.
Mann has ingratiated himself in the
high esteem of the bar and the laymen
and is favorite with all who meet
him. The dignity, deliberation and i'm
partiality which characterize him in
his official capacity have called
forth fiattering words of approval from
all the members of the bar, and from
Judge Long and Judge Toombs in par
ticular.
Owing to the condition of the court
fund the present special term will
probably adjourn within the next ten
days.
The visiting attorneys are E. V.
Long, Las Vegas; Byron Sherry, ]. e.
Wharton, Alamogordo; d. B. Hill, Dal-
hart, Texas; E. R. Wright, M. c. de
Baca, Santa Rosa.

AS usual the story is a fake. Col
lector Bardshar was not in Washington
yesterday but was right here In Santa
Fe. AS to the removal of the Office of
Internal Revenue Collector from this
city to Albuquerque, there Is nothing
certain and the matter has not yet
been considered. Collector Bardshar
stated to the New Mexican yesterday
that, while he was sure that the office
would not be moved to Arizona, he was
not certain that it would remain in
Santa Fe. and that for the present the
matter would remain in statu quo. The
office can be moved by executive order
to any town within the district. The
internal revenue business for the dis.
trict has been transacted in this city
ever since the establishment of the in.
ternal revenue system and 1t has been
done satisfactorily to the people and
to the department. Why then, a
change?

co in the course of few days, when
it is believed that formal announce
ment of the change will be made. The
office is one of the most important of
the federal offices maintained in New
Mexico.

II know of orchardists in places in

FACTS ABOUT THE GALLONS.
W. B. Mays, Who Built the Zorn Scat
fold, Makes Correction OF the Story.

Pendleton. Jan. 20.-Editor East
Oregonian:-In last nights issue of
the East Oregonian you refer to the
gallows on which Frederick Zorn was
hanged in this city.
The gallows mentioned In the arti-
Gle yesterday was constructed by me
on which to hang a man named Muir
ply, who killed man named French,
on Butter creek. and also to hang a
Chinaman who killed China woman
In a house near where the Baptist
church now stands.
A few days before the Chinaman
was to be hanged he made his escape
from jail (now the city jail), and has
never been captured. The old gallows
removed yesterday was taken to the
new court house. on its completion,
but zorn was not hanged on it. II
was found that this scaffold could not
be set up in the basement of the new
court house, where Zorn was to be
hanged. so another scaffold was built
there for his case. I built both scat
folds and remember the circumstances
very we'll.

OREGON APPLES IN DEMAND.
California Buyers After rs Carloads In
Grand ROnde Valley.

That Oregon apples are in sharp
demand everywhere is shown by the
quest of California buyers in this city
and Grand Ronde.
a buyer is now in La Grande trying
to purchase Is carloads of winter ap-
pies for the Oakland markets, but so
far has succeeded In securing only a
small portion of this amount.
California is growing less and less
apples every year. and will necessarily
draw more and more from this state.
A buyer from San Francisco who has
been I'm this city for few days saws
the quality of California apples is
far inferior to those raised in parts of
Oregon. The California climate is un-
suited to their highest development
and the land is too valuable for other
purposes to grow apples.
First-class Oregon apples are now
worth s2.25 per box in the San Fran
cisco markets.
