BRAVE ENGINEER
SAVES A TOWN

Douglas, Ariz., Nov. 1.-THE death
list as the result of the Nacozari ex
plosion Thursday is now placed at IA
or Is, all Mexicans, beside John CHS
holm, aged 10, who was riding on the
train when the explosion occurred.
The train in some way caught fire.
In the train were two open cars of
explosives, and the fact that the con-
centrator and a good part of the town
of Nacozari were saved from ruin
was due to the bravery of the Mexican
engineer of the train, Jesus Garcia.
Realizing that to cut out the burning
cars and escape on the engine would
expose the town to probable destruc-
ton, he called to the rest of the crew
to jump and started to run the train
away from the town. He had taken
it half mile when the explosion oc-
Cured and he was blown to atoms. 1t
Is reported that another member of
the crew stayed with him and was
killed. The heavy death list is due
to the fact that the explosion oe-
Cured just as the train was passing a
section house in which were number
of section men.

NATIONAL BANK NOTE

Washington, Nov. 11.--Chief Wilkie
Of the secret service reports the dis
covery of a new counterfeit $40 ma
tional bank note. The counterfeit is
on the Wells Fargo Nevada bank Of
San Francisco, and is poor photo

fair imitation OF the genuine, except
the coloring around the charter num-
Der, which is muddy green.

What was that?" Heney asked.

which he had spoken. The question
was repeated.
"I'll tell you why" said Heney, TO-
cusing his gaze on the questioner.
1--WE did not put Ruef on the stand
because he wanted complete immun.
ity. We had given him partial i'm
munity, and when the Ford trial
came up he thought he was the
whole show. Ruef concluded we
could not get along without him. He
thought ne had us where he wanted
us, so he said he would not go on
the stand and tell all he knew about
the trolley bribery unless we grained
him complete immunity"
Heney withdrew his gaze from his
questioner, and turned and faced the

"LuMeERJAck" is IDLE.
Refuse Big Cut in Wages Made by
Lumber Companies.

Lumber Companies.
Bayfield,, Wis, Nov. 1.-THE "lum-
berjack' who has worked in the woods
in the past and received from sS5 to
$40 per month will have to labor at a
considerable reduction in wages, the
scale for common labor now being $26
and $50 per month.
Lumbermen here have stated that
they are disguised with the manner
in which they have been treated by
the laborers in their employ and have
taken the aggressive by putting in the
present scale of wages. Lumbermen
in this city threaten to cease logging
operations altogether if the men re-
fuse to work for the established
scale. If this is done, hundreds of
men in the vicinity of Bayfield, will
become idle, but conservative lumber
men express the opinion that logging
operations will continue and the lum.
berjack will be only too willing to go
10 work.
To illustrate the condition among
loggers in the past, one lumberman
said; 1T has come to the stage where
we had to do something for our own
protection or quit business. This plan
of having crew at work in camp,
another leaving and still another COM
ing does not pay. They must either
accept our scale or quit"
The town is fast filling up with lum-
berjacks who are coming from sur
rounding camps at the rate of from
twenty-five to fifty per day. Logging
operations near here will be at a
standstill for a few days when it is
expected they will all come to the con.
clusion that they must continue under
the new scale and work will COM
mence again.

paratively light vote. The fusion be-
tween the republicans and the indie
pendence league was a failure, except
in the cases of a few minor officials.
In Richmond and Queens, too, the
democrats were generally successful,
but in Kings county (Brooklyn) the
democrats, under the leadership of

a reverse. All the republican candi-
dates on the county ticket, with the
single exception of Clarke, democrat
ic candidate for district attorney, are
apparently elected. No great issue

WHERE DOES DEMING
CONE IN?

Mr.. EDITOR: As do not wish to go
away from home to have articles print
ei that treat of local matters, ! will
ask you TO kindly give this space in
your widely circulated paper.
am informed that the Santa Fe
railroad company is making arrange.
ments to put on local train between
Silver City, n village located near the
end of a spur running out from Dem
ing, the largest city in southwestern
New Mexico, and n town built on the
ragged edge Of a foreign country. Is
this what a high Official Of the Santa Fc
road means by saying the people should
be treated right? Is it right for the
Santa Fe railroad company TO enter
into any kind Of arrangements with the
merchants of town in foreign state
wherein the Santa Fc has strong
competing point to contend with, where.
as Deming. the terminus OF their road
and the city that Is ri2htfully entitled
to the trade Of the Mimbrcs Valley, is
ignored in the arrangement? have
no doubt the railroad officials know
what they are doing, but ! would not
care 20 buy the stock Of corporation
that does not take advantage Of the
opportunities along their line that would
give them n monopoly Of the business,
Possibly the stockholders do not know
OF the opportunities they have here in
the way Of building up business ior
their system. A. least | think not.
but | think il time that Deming should
get a square deal from the railroads.
However, in justice TO the Southern
Pacific will say that am Of the opin.
ion that Mr.. Hartman is too big n fin.
ancier to overlook the opportunities he
has here in Deming TO control the trad,
OF southwestern New Mexico. Shoull
the conditions existing here be explain
cd to him believe he would rive Dem
ing more favorable rates and a taste
ssrvice. That would give the Southern
Pacific control Of all business original
ing and terminating in the Mimbrc
Valley. 1t would also greatly assis
the miners in opening up their mine
and shipping their oreS.

PASSENGER
TRAINS COLLIDE
In the Southern Pacific
Yards Here.

The Southern Pacific pulled off
a wreck between passenger
trains in their yards here last
Friday night about 9 o'clock.
The trains were the Golden
State Limited, west bound, and
the Sunset Limited, east bound.
The west bound passenger had
orders to pass the east bound
train here, but a misplaced
switch caused it to collide head
on with the Limited as it enter
ed the yards. Fortunately the
west bound was not running ov-
err five miles an hour as it ran
into the switch, for had it been
going its full speed a wreck
which turned out to be Of small
consequence would probably have
been a most disasterous one.
The engine Of the Golden
State Limited, a beautiful iron
h)rse of the latest compound
type, was almost swept from the
rails and completely put out Of
b lsiness. However, the engine
o. the east bound train Jared
mich better, as it was able to
proceed with its train, although
minus its cowcatcher and sport
ing o badly battered front gen.
orally. The engine crews jump
el and the passengers on both
trains escaped save getting &
pretty fair shake up. Another en-.
gine was procured and the west
bound proceeded on its way
without the loss of much time.
The G. II. wrecker arrived a

Paso in a few hours in charg
Of II. c. Borcherding and con
ductor Chas. S. Jones. Tn
wrecker consisted of crane, car
