Newspaper Mans Report.
Santiago, Aug 2O.-Carlos Edwards,
one of the proprietors of Mercurio,
of Valparaiso, has arrived mere on
horseback from that city. He con-
firms the reports that the principal
avenues have been transformed into
heaps of ruins. The majority of the
inhabitants. he says, have sought re-
fuge on the hills, in the parks and
along the seashore- No private resi-
dences are habitable.
In spite of the desolation perfeet
order was maintained by the troops.
Military ambulances were gathering
up the wounded and dead.
A squadron of cavalry forming the
presidential escort started from here
for Valparaiso with instructions to
requisition all cattle between this
place and Valparaiso and drive all
herds to the latter city in order to
have been sent from this city and
everything possible is being done to
assist the homeless. 1t is considered
certain that the damage will run in
to hundreds of millions of dollars. The
government has authorized the prov
incial governments to spend all the
money necessary to help the earth
quake sufferers in their districts.
A great deal of damage has been
done at the mines in the Nogales and
Calona districts.
A number of houses have fallen a

Haynes & Bonney, who own the
water mill in the northwest part of
town, have placed an order for 20
ton ice plant, and are thus the first
of several prospective builders of a
large size plant to actually start the
work for plant The order was Civ
en- Saturday to Q. ]. Morris, of Dal-
las, representative of the Frick Com
pany, of Pittsburg. Pa, and he tele-
graphed the order to his firm Satur-
day night, asking for immediate ship
ment. The machinery will be set up
expected to get in working order in
| time for the trade this fall
Mr.. Morris says it will take thirty
men to set up the plant. He will be
here to supervise the work and will
run the plant for fifteen days, or un-
til Messrs. Haynes and Bonney are
satisfied that it is in good working
order.
For twenty-one years Mr. Morris
has been in the ice plant business and
he declares that in all that time he
never saw conditions so favorable to
the manufacture and sale of ice as
those which surround Haynes & Bon
ney. He says they have water power
h i1I1 c,lJ, 0f f1r.al
which will enable them to make ice
at half cost of the steam made pro-
duct; further, tnat they do not have
the danger from flood which usually
| accompanies the use of water power,
| for their stream has it's source in a
spring which does not overflow and
| is constant He says that the twenty
| ton plant will be operated with so
horsepower, but that they have suf-
| ficient water to materially increase
| capacity.
| Mr.. Morris declares that Roswell
should be a monster consumer of ice.
| He says that many Texas towns use
a great quantity of ice shipping fruit,
| and that Roswell eventually will do
/ the same He predicts that there will
| be room for the two other plants that
| are talked of here, if the fruit grow
ers begin to ship with ice. His com
| pany has been in business 81 years,
and has put in % plants in the South,
| among them being those located at
| Albuquerque, FL Paso, Fort Worth.
! Abilene, Colorado City, Killeen and
| Houston, the latter being plans of
260 tons capacity per day At present
his company is doubling the capacity
of the plant at Amarillo.
Roswell. Mr.. Morris says, is one
of the prettiest towns he ever saw.
and he has travelled all over the Uni
ted States, in Mexico, South Africa
and elsewhere in putting in ice plants.
He likes the town SO well that he
has bought cottage at the corner
of Seventh street and Missouri ave-
nue. TO use as a summer home for
his family, now at Dallas. If Roswell
gets railroad east and west he will
make his permanent home here.

with being accessory to the same crime,
All are young lei They will have
their preliminary trial before Squire
Stigler at RuIeville on Wednesday Of
this week.
B. W. Brady was killed at 4 o'clock
Sunday morning in Barnard & Young's
store, and John New, has been arrested
for the crime and william Bartlett and
Lee Jackson are charged with being ac-
cessories to the crime. All are proni-
nent young white men, They had been
playing billiards Saturday night, and
were drinking quite freely, About mid
night they quarrelled and came tc
blows, but later shook hands and made
friends. Thereupor they went to the
store to shoot craps. A quarrel arose
over some trivial thing, and it is alleged
that New shot Brady behind the ear
killing him almost instantly. The three
then jerked the dying man out of the
door into the street, breaking his neck
No attempt was made to escape, and
the three men were arrested and turned
oyer to Sheriff Avent, who took them tc
lndianola and placed them in Jail. The
community is considerably stirred W
over the affair, and while the prisoners
claim that Brady was the aggressor ant

FIGURING ON
SENATORIAL VOTE.
varosman Says He VIII Defeat VII
Ilsms Worse Than CritI.

In discussing his political chance
with personal friends a day or so since,
Governor Vsrdaman express ID the
opinion that he will defeat Congress
man John Sharp Williams for the United
States senatorship by a larger majority
than he defeated Judge Y. A, Critz for
the goyernorship three years ago. He
declared that his following in the state
il now stronger than il has ever been,
and that he Is receiving assurances Of
support from sections OF the state
where heretofore he had not hoped to
secure ~maiorities.
Ia the 1903 primary Governor Yarda-
man received 53,O32 votes, and Judge
Critz received 1929 votes, yardaman's
majority being only 6,7s3. II is there
fore evident that he expects the result
to be rather close, despite the belief
that he will be the winner.
On the other hand, Congressman Will
has persistently refused to make
any estimate of his probable majority in
the state. we will look after the fig
ures later on" remarked the Yazoo
statesman to q friend several weeks ago
when asked Tor an opinion as to bis
probable majority in the fight with
Nardaman. Guessing is a child's game.
ANYHOW
The friends OF Mr.. Williams, however,
and those who are in close touch with
his campaign, unhesitatingly predict
that he will defeat the governor by a
majority Of 10000 votes. One enthusi-
astic supporter of Mr.. Williams stood in
the lobby at the Edwards last night and
offered to post a $500 wager that Mr.
Williams win lead his opponent by over
10000 votes. jackson News, Oct. 18th.
