J.. p. Barnett and wife were in
town Thursday to attend the car
nival. Mr.. Barnett tells us that
he is going out of the stock busi-
ness and open up good farm. He
is planting a large acreage this
year, and will next year devote his
time exclusively to agriculture.
J. P. White has opened a saloon
at Montoya. He says there is a
good businessin every line in that
flourishing new town.
J. S. White was in from the San
Jon country, Friday to take look
at the carnival.
A. l.. Simpson, now located at
San Antonio, N. M, and a former
resident of Tucumcari, is spending
few days here looking after busi-
ness matters.

Preparing to Move 500 to 1000 Cars of
Coke and Coal Day.

this connection to have sufficient
trackage to make up trains and
handle daily 500 to 1000 car loads
OF coke and coal from the Dawson
mines which the company's mines,
smelters and railway require in
Arizona. OF course this will re-
quire several miles of trackage, in
cluding repair track, switches, etc.
This will be both a passenger and
freight division and consequently
the home Of many railroad men,
all OF which augurs much for the iu-
ture of our city and will bring to us
such improvements as modern no.
tells, gymnasiums, public libraries,
etc. In every Southwestern town
they are always heavy contributors
to Y. M. c. A. buildings and other
benevolent enterprises.
There seems to be little question
that the deal for these miles of track
from Tucumcari to Santa Rosa is
consumated, and that the property
will be turned to the Southwestern
in July, and that the long sought
agreement between the two systems
will be in operation on and after
July this wear.
These improvements are to be
made, and the only question at is
sue between railroad interests and
our city is just where shops and
round house will be located. Oi
course Tucumcari has unanimously
! agreed that we want these improve
ments as near the city as possible
but it is not a settled tact that we
will be able to control the matter
and there is a possibility of II:
missing it a mile or so.
Anyway it means much to ou
town to treat the submitted propo
sition from the Southwestern, wher
it comes, with the greatest consid
Grafton possible, and show the com
pany all the courtesy due an en-
terprise OF such magnitude.
Shops and round houses, such a
they purpose to build, will maxi
Tucumcari a town of FIVE to sever
thousand inhabitants.

NOW, What we give you on this
subject is what we got in inter-
view from right-of-way agent Ber-
gen who spent a day or two Of
this week in Tucumcari in the in
terest of the Southwestern Com
pany. We got nothing from him
that we consider definite informa-
ton. The situation is simply
this: The Southwestern sent
right-of-way agent Bergen here, SO
Bergen says, to ascertain il it were
possible for them to secure at a
reasonable figure sixty acres of
land joining their forty which was
acquired by c. B. Eddy for the
E. P. & N. E. System soon after
the road was completed to this
point and which in addition to
same will give them 100 acres for
round house, shops, tracks, etc.
He was not prepared to submit
any proposition by which he de-
sired to get this property, but was
under instructions from General
Manager Simmons to report con-
ditions as he found them, follow
ing which the railroad company
is to submit a proposition to the
business interests of this commun-
ity, outlining what they want in
connection with what they pro-
posed to do. We found ou,
enough to justify US in saying thai
the railway company wants an ad,
ditional sixty acres of land or
which to place it's shops and rounC
house, trackage etc., but not the
manner by which they desire tc
obtain it. The plan is for 900 tc
1000 feet along the Soushwesterr
track, west, crossing a portion o
the Goldenberg and Daub property
and quarter of the Smith heir:
property touching the southeas
eighty of the Coble heirs.
Bergen explained to us tha
among the things the railway pro
posed to do is the building OF shop
and round house which will b.
the largest on the system outside O
Ell Paso, and that they will emplo
at least 900 men. They desire il

San Antonio, March.-The crosse eX- animation of Samuel Wheeler, the ne- gro ex-corporal of the Twenty fifth In- fnatry, was begun Monday in the Pen rose courtmartial. The witness con- tradicted himself on some minor points. He acknowledged having in the former investigation testified that he heard horses galloping on the night of the affray; he testified that there was no ill feeling between the soldiers and the citizens of Brownsville. When asked why he had not before told of these things, witness said he didn't have fair chance in the other inves- tigaton"

TROUBLE AT LOUISVILLE
ONLY ONE-SlXTH OF CITY CARS WERE oUT-No ATTEMPT MADE
 TO RUN CARS AFTER DARK.

Louisville, Ky, March-Violence, re- sulting in injuries more or less severe to nearly dozen persons, the feeble and spasmodic operation of less than 100 cars for a few hours under made
 quate and lukewram police protection and the development of an apparent pro-uRion feeling on the part of the public. marked the second day of the strike of the union employees of the Louisville Street Railway Company.
 Few, if any, of the cars operated were patronized, and a number were stoned
 AS general thing, however, the crowds that thronged the street near the car barns won their point of driv- ing the crews of the cars by merely surging forward and ordering the men away. Despite the inadequate police protection furnished, the street rail- way officials declared, they have not asked for additional officers, neither policemen nor deputy sheriffs, and en- phatically denied report that they in tended calling on Sheriff Bell to fur nish full protection, which course would necessitate the use of militia. Mayor Paul c. Earth stated that he had not been asked to swear in extra policemen, and that his course in re- gard to -thfs matter would be gaided solely by the developments Tuesday.
