VICTIMS SUE
GALLOWAY RESIDENTS WHO
LOST IN GAME OF CHANCE.
Endeayor TO Attach the Cole Bros
Circus, But Could Find No
''Service" Man.

John Brandon, F. G. Moss, Luther
Wilson and Galen Grogan, of Gallo
way county, are the plaintiffs in four
separate suits filed in the circuit
court there against Cole Brothers
shows, which exhibited here yester-
day. The suits are the result of a
"fieecing' told elsewhere ia The
Sun.
The men lost money In a "skin
game" and they sue for $40, $3.50,
$50 and $50 respectively. There
were many others who lost amounts
ranging from a few cents to many
dollars, but these are the only ones
who lost enough to cause a smarting
sufficiently to prompt this action.
Through a blunder of the attorney
who drafted the suits, probably due
to haste, the sheriff here was unable
to secure service on the show people
The suits read Cole Bros" as de
fendants and failed to specify any
agent. The sheriff could not serve the
summons there being several agents,
and the matter had to necessarily be
thrown over. The show people left
unmolested.
The show people exhibited some
little astuteness. One agent bought
feed for tho cfooE anothar cnaoiRad
himself as a ticket agent, another as
general agent for the big show, and
SO on. The sheriff tried hard but
could not serve the summons.

PREPARE AS THO
WAR IS EXPECTED

Berlin, Jan. 3.-The railway admin
istration placed orders last week for
10000 freight cars at a cost of $780,.
100000 with manufacturers Of FIVE Eu.
ropean countries, stipulating their de.
livery by the middle of February, be.
sides utilizing the car works of Ger
many.
Reasons Given.
Inquiries made regarding the rea-
sons for the urgency resulted in the
statement that the ordering of cars
was a precautionary measure of the
general staff, desiring to be ready to
move troops If necessary by the first
of March. This is only a proper mea.
sure of prudence, 1t was affirmed. In
view Of the extensive military ar.
rangements going on in France, which
among other dispositions, include the
movement towards the German from
tier of six regiments of artillery, or
1870 guns.
Diplomatic Move.
The government will probably re-
gret the publication Of this intelli.
gence, but its transmission seems nee
essary to a proper understanding of
the drift OF events and Of how both
Germany and France are strengthen.
ing their diplomatic positions on the
eve OF the Moroccan conference, by
material preparations.

TROUBLE FEARED.
United States to Send Ships to Orient
and Soldiers to the Phil
ippines.

Washington, Jan. S.-The attitude
OF the Chinese towards foreigners, and
foreign interests generally has become
sufficiently hostile to warrant the prep.
arations on the part Of the various
governments for the suppression Of an.
other demonstration such as that
which occurred in 1900.
The navy department had intended
to order the battleship Oregon back
to the United States, but In view Of
the threatening situation which has
developed, instructions have been
cabled to leave the vessel in the
Orient.
There is no change in the purpose
of the President to increase the bat
tleship squadron In Asiatic waters by
two vessels during the coming spring.
The Chinese situation was discussed at
a cabinet meeting yesterday and later
Secretary Taft cabled General Wood,
commanding the military division in
the Philippines, that he was to be re-
inforced in order that he might always
have a strong detachment in readiness
to proceed without delay to China in
case American interests should be
nenaced.
The troops at Manila will be within
fifty hours of Chinese territory and If
1t should be necessary to land a force
IN the southern part Of that empire
there will be no long delay.

Statement.
ACCUSES BRITISH ADMIRAL

Vessels---Workmen to
Make Demonstration.

st. Petersburg, Jan. 3.-The remark
able allegations that the British flee
was held in readiness to destroy the
Russian fleet If the battle of the sea
OF Japan had gone In the Russian
favor, Is made by Admiral Rojest
vensky in letter published in the
Novoe Vremya today with the permis
sion of the minister of the marine.
IN From Admiral Rojestvensky's ac
count OF his tactics in the battle ol
the sea of Japan, published in the
Novoe Vremya today, the reader Is al
most convinced that the Russian com
mander out maneuvered Admiral To
20 at every point and was himself
the real victor.
Diplomatic Representation.
He declares he knew the where
abouts Of Togo two days before the
battle and made his disposition &C.
cordingly. The charge that the Brit.
ish admiral concentrated his ships at
Wei Hal Wei, expecting to receive or.
ders to destroy the Russians in the
event that Admiral Togo proved un-
equal to the task has aroused con-
siderable sensation in the diplomatic
circles and no doubt is entertained
that It will be made the subject of
diplomatic representations to Great
Britain.

PEOPLE WISH TO CONE HERE

Residences-.-D Decided Lack
Also of Rooms.

The average citizen has no Idea of
the scarcity of houses here and the
small number of vacant rooms avail
able for the tourist or health seeker.
In speaking Of the matter today, r.
H. Hanna made the following state.
ment:
There Is a big demand in this city
for any kind of house, and 1t Is out
Of the question to fill the demand for
houses Of modern tpye.
Il have frequently received letters
from people who wished to come here
and found 1t impossible to secure the
kind Of quarters they wished. Only
day or 80 ago received a letter from
an eastern party and from one In Albu.
querQue who wished to make Santa Fe
their homes, but wrote saying that the
report had reached them that houses
were hard to get and asked what was
available. I found It impossible to Sc.
cure the houses they wished
Shows Demand.

have In charge became vacant. A
party moved In within two days and
three other parties who had noted the
first one moving out made application
for the house. have never known
the demand for houses Ito be so great
here"
Hughes and Delgado, In speaking of
the situation, said that the demand for
houses and real estate Is unusual
They state that the demand for houses
Is far greater than can be supplied
and that there Is not vacant modern
house in the city.
Within recent date one citizen has
been written to by five different par
ties who would come to the city II
there were Accommodations assured
that would answer the purposes. Santa

class residences is losing a large part
of the best class of health seekers

A prominent man, speaking on this
line today, said:
"The merchants of the city are los.
ing money by not getting together and
putting up the funds to build houses
If they do not wish to do so individ-
ually The city is on boom and all
needed is to keep this boom going. II
we do not have proper Accommodations
for the people who wish to come here.
we cannot expect to keep them. Phoe'
nix, Arizona, and other places have ap.
pointed citizen committees to look
after the tourist and health seeker and

wealthy, who wishes to come here

housekeeping, but cannot secure the
