in the Dewey Brothers Machine snip in
this city, has received a very flattering
offer from the P. D. Iron Works in

several in the last few months. This
time Mr.. d. F. Kornegay had the mis-
fortune to lose his store and toe Of

5000 insurance. In the absence Of any
proof to the contrary the fire was sup
posed to have been Of an incendiary
origin. Other fires in that vicinity have
been attributed to the same cause.

WOUlD.BE KIDNAPPERS.
Search Buildings at the Red House
on the Upper Peeos, Presumably
for Miguel Otero, Jr.

Charles Closson accompanied by
Miguel OterO, Jr., son of Governor
Otero, returned last night from the
Red House on the Upper Pecos. Mr..
Closson had gone there to investigate
the rumor that steps were being taken
to kidnap the Governors son. Gov
ernor Otero has of late received sew
eral letters of threatening aspect and
it was believed that the kidnapping of
Miguel was the elimination of some
of these missives. He was to be held
as hostage for several prisoners in
the penitentiary and, unless the Gov
ernor pardoned them, the life of the
BOY was to be forfeited. Mr.. Closson
says that from all he could learn
there were several suspicious charac-
ters around the camp of the party at
the Red House and that one or two
buildings there had searched, presum-
ably for Miguel. The names of the
men could not be obtained, but a
sharp lookout is being kept and they
will in time be landed where they
belong in the penitentiary.
