IMPORTANT MAT
TIERS HANDLED
BY Board Of Trade Friday Evening
Last At Its Monthly
Meeting.

A very busy meeting of the Santa Fe
board Of trade was held Friday evening
al the Office of the Water and Light
Company, Hon. l.. B. Prince presiding
and W. S. Schnepple, the secretary
was at his post.
After the regular routine business
A. H. Brodhead and M. C. Miller were
unanimously elected to membership
Professor Wood and Captain Muller
made reports relative to tree planting
and showed that gratifying progress
was being made.
The president appointed S. B. Grim
shaw to represent the board at the
convention of Commercial Clubs to be
held in st. Louis next week and was
authorized to telegraph to Mr.. Grim
shaw and to the secretary of the con
ventiOn.
The preservation of the Garita from
destruction was the next topic of in
terest. The rapid destruction of this
old Spanish fortiflcation was greatly
regretted and Messrs. Hanna, Wood
and Read were appointed committee
to ascertain if through the territorial
or city authorities it could not be pro
tected. At the present rate of destruc
ton nothing will remain of it in anoth
er year. The doors, windows, roof and
nearly half of the walls have been
carried off already. 1t is situated on
property belonging to Mrs. Gaspar Or.
tiz and mOrtgaged to Hon. T. ID. Burns,
but Mr. Burns has offered to release
it from his mortgage. The Historical
Society offered to pay $50 for the
equity in order to preserve it, but the
offer was not accepted. The point
is now raised by some lawyers that,
as it was Spanish fort and continu-
ously used by the Mexican government
ii would not have been in private
ownership and must have become
United States property at the time of
the annexation.
Through communication from
Colonel Frost, the subject of build
ing for the y. s. Weather Bureau
was brought up and resolution adopt
ed urging the erection of such build
ing and asking Delegate Andrews aid
in the matter.
1t was announced that Mayor Glib
son has received a letter from Rev.
r. M. Craig, relative to the Presby-
terian school and Captain Muller and
Frank Owen were added to the com
mittee on that subject.
The importance to Santa Fe of the
establishment of the Pajarito Nation
al Park was discussed at length and a
resolution passed thanking Delegate
Andrews for introducing the bill for
the purpose and urging speedy action,
as the general act proposed by Con-
gressman Lacey does not answer the
purpose desired.
The committee, previously appoint
ed to arrange for the distribution of
circulars relating to the side trip to
Santa Fe on trains between Trinidad
and Flagstaff, was urged to put the
system into operation as it is consid-
cred a very important matter, especi-
ally to hotels, curio stores, and others
interested in tourist travel. 1t was
stated that some difficulty existed in
the delivery of letters owing to the de-
fective numbering of houses and a
committee consisting of Captain Mul.
Ter, Professor Wood and w. C. Schnep-
pie was appointed to ask the attention
of the city council to the subject
