TRACK IN NEW MEXICO.
Pennington Extension of Denver G.
Rio Grande Crosses the Line
Trains Soon Be Running.

Special to the New Mexican.
Pennington, July 27-The track
of the San Juan County extension of
the Denver & Rio Grande Railroad
crossed the state line twelve miles be-
low Durango yesterday and work
trains are now running on the COM
pleted section of the track. The
building of the bridge across the
Animas River this side of the Colo
rado and New Mexico line is progress
ing rapidly and the bridge will be
ready for the steel rails within
few days. Grading is completed to
Aztec and is going on at a rapid rate
between Aztec and Pennington. The
grading of the railroad yards in
Pennington began this morning. The
force of teams and men at work is
being constantly increased, and it is
expected that trains will run into this
town from Durango by September /.

LOW RATE OF TEN DOLLARS.
Is Confidently Expected Between Chi.
cago and New York and That
Within Next Few Weeks.

Chicago, July PA rate of $40
from Chicago to New York within the
next few weeks is not only possibili-
ty but a strong probability. Unless
the executive officers of the east
bound lines at once interfere to stop
the rate slashing which has been
brought about by the refusal of the
Grand Trunk and other roads to abide
by the arbitrator's decision in the
Michigan Central's differential rate
question, this result will undoubtedly
ensue. The Pennsylvania and the
baltimore & Ohio met the Erie and
the Grand Trunk rate of SIG and the
Michigan Central will probably follow
suit
So far as could be learned here no
steps have been taken yet by anybody
to bring about executive interference.
The Michigan Central will not take
the initiative and it will devolve upon
either the Pennsylvania or the Balti-
more & Ohio TO do so. With the feel
ing remaining as it is today, however,
it is very doubtful if even the execu-
tive officers could agree upon any
course of action that would prevent
the rate war from spreading.

LABoRERS ARE VERY SCARCE,
The Western Roads COMPLAIN Be-
cause They Are Unable to Sc
cure Necessary Hands.

San Bernardino, July 27.-The rail
roads just at present are complainin&
of a scarcity of laborers for section
hands. This condition is interfering
with the completion of some of the
new lines of the Pacific Electric road
out of Los Angeles, and the Southern
Pacific could also use at least two
hundred more men. The Santa Fe is
feeling the shortage of labor, but prob
ably not to the extent of the other
lines.
The cause for this condition is said
to be the large number of Mexicans
and other laborers which the employ
ment agencies have recently been
shipping to Arizona, Colorado, New
Mexico and Texas for new work in
those sections.
One inducement the Southern Pa
cific uses to hold it's native laborers
is the promise to give them free trans
portation back to their homes after
they have completed six months of
work. 1t is said that the employment
agents who have been operating in
southern California lately have prom
ised the men a bonus of $40 cash and
free transportation back home after
three months work.

F|NANC|ERS'
CONFERENCE
European Money Kings Taking
Precautions on Account of
Japanese Indemnity.
LOAN TO BE SCATTERED
Money for Payment by Russia Will bs
Placed Among Different Nations to
Avoid Disturbing the Market

Berlin, July Pin view of the
probability of early peace between
Russia and Japan, the terms of which
will involve the payment of a very
heavy indemnity by Russia, the finan-
ciers of Europe have been holding
conferences to the end that the peace
indemnity may be paid without seri-
ously disturbing the finances of the
world. The Menselssohns, who for
many years negotiated most of Rus
sias loans, have formed an alliance
with the Rothschilds in respect to the
matter and nave held communications
with all the leading financial institu-
tions, both on the continent and in
England. They are about to send
representatives to New York with the
view of enlisting the cooperation OF
the larger financiers of the United
States. 1t is likely that the Russian
loan for the purpose of paying the in
demnity will be scattered and that a
portion of it viii be TAX
an in the united States.

MORE DAMAGE IN PeC0S VALLEY,
Two Other Bridges Washed Away and
Several Residences Destroyed BY
the Flood Waters.

Roswell, July 27.-In addition to
the loss of the railroad bridge over
the Penasco, the railroad bridge over
the Felix and the county bridge over
the same stream were washed away
by the floods of Tuesday.
The county bridge was one mile
west of the railroad bridge and went
out first, striking the railroad bridge.
The damage cannot be repaired for
some time and this city will now be
the southern terminal for the Pecos
Valley & Northeastern lines until the
damage can be repaired. The north
bound train is able to leave on regu-
lar schedule
The Yeargin, Marable and Lattion
homes at Dayton were also washed
away and were totally destroyed. The
buildings were substantial ones and
the loss will reach about $4,000. The
Marable residence was claimed to be
the oldest one in southeastern New
Mexico.
The water in the Hondo is higher
than it was during the floods of last
fall but no danger is anticipated of
this city being again flooded. as
large sums of money have been ex-
pended for dykes and the city is
well protected from overfows.

THE POWER
OF THE PRESS
Cardinal James Gibbons Declares
That Corruption is Only
Cured by Publicity
DREAD OF EXPOSURE
Is the Counter Balancing Element in
the Evils of Today. Money is the
Great Trouble Maker.

New York, July >27.-CardinaI
James Gibbons, who is spending the
summer at Southampton, L. l., has
given out an interview on the subject
of corruption in business and public
! life, which evil he declares must be
cured by continued publicity through
| the press. corruption is a fixed evil
that we must reckon with just as long
as the present condition of society ex-
lists in this country" said the Cardinal.
whenever there is an amalgamation
of great capital, or large collection
OF men interested in one money-mak-
ing concern, there is sure to be cor
ruption. Corruption has always ex-
listed. The one bright spot is the
TACT that the degradation is made
known. Corruption cannot exist now
adays without being discovered after
awhile. The greater the evil the
greater will be the possibility of rene
dy. Fear and a dread of exposure is
the counter-balancing element, and
that fear, that dread, that horror of
having name once respected dragged
down is due to the efforts of the met
ropolitan press. There is nothing
which man prizes more than his repu-
tation and the only way to effectually
upset a mans reputation is TO ex-
pose him in the public press. The
power of the press is incalculable.
Sometimes it happens that the de-
feet is shown in an exaggerated form,
but as rule the public exposures of
public men are public benefactions.
The great trouble maker of this coun-
try is money. Americans are not
misers, thank God. Otherwise we
would be in a yet more deporable
When great fortunes are
made they are almost as rapidly ex-
pended, and the constant circulation
Of money, the keeping going of the
great accumulations of wealth, is one
Of the hope&ll signs of the future"

Kuanchangtsu, Manchuria, July 81
According to reports from Korea the
Japanese continue advancing along

the Tumen River. The Koreans es-
innate the strength of the Japanese

les in discussing the situation in
north Korea predict that the Russians
will vigorously defend Kyong Cheung

which was protecting the landing of |

the enemy from Alkova and vicinity, |
occupied the first line of defenses at |
Polovin and then the second line at |
Alkova. Another detachment occupied |
the third line of defenses at Alkova |
on the same afternoon. Continuing
the advance, Alexandrovsk was taken
and entered the same evening after
some resistance. A detachment of
Japanese, helped by a torpedo boat,
landed at Mugati, dslodged the Rus

Must Pay for the War.

Washington, July 27.-It is known
that Japan will demand an indemnity
that will approximately cover the cost
of the war to date.
The amount of the indemnity is
still secret, but it is based upon the
most careful estimates of the cost of
the war and will be accompanied by
a more or less detailed statement
showing the method by which the final
figures were computed. 1t will not
fall far short of one million dollars,
according to advices reaching here
from well informed sources. Beside
the indemnity, it is believed Japan's
other essentials to a continuance of
the negotiations are the cession To
Japan of Sakhelin, of the Liao Tung
peninsula and of the railway as far
as Harbin; the recognition of Japanese
predominating influence in Korea and
the return of Manchuria to China.
If the Russian ENJOYS are prepared
to accept these essentials the officials
here are confident that the basis will
be laid for negotiations sure to lead
to the signing of the treaty of Wash
ington, bringing peace in the far east.

COURT GRANTS An INJUNCTION.
The Santa Fe Railway Takes Step
for the Protection of Its Property
Out From Wichita.

Wichita, Kans., July 27-The Santa
Fe Railway Company has been grant
er an injunction against two farmers
who live out from Wichita along the
company's right-of-way. 1t seems that
these farmers have kept the railway
busy building and rebuilding its fence
along the right-of-way and have as
often torn it down and carried it away.
The company has had some trouble
with stray cattle, hogs and horse that
would get on the track and the fence
was built in order that the right-of-
way could be kept clear. The cop-
pany asked for an Injunction to re-
strain the farmers from damaging its
property, and the court issued a tenn
porary injunction to hold until the
case could be tried this fall.

London, July 27.-The British chan
mel fleet will sail for the Baltic sea
on August 20 and will remain through
September. AS it has beer many
years since the British feet appeared
in that sea the announcement is con-
nected in the public mind with En-
peror Williams recent tour and the
visit of the German squadron to Scan-
dinavian waters. The admiralty.
however, discourages the idea of poll
tics having any bearing on the cruise
and says the fleet is simply going
there to execute maneuvers, a cere-
monious visit not being contemplated.
