bled BY Last Nights
Arrivals.
BLAIR'S
REPORT IN FULL

The second day of the twenty
third annual conference of the Meth
odist Episcopal church of New Mex
leo opened at the First Methodist
church this afternoon at o'clock
with a business session.
The attendance of yesterday was
doubled today by new arrivals,
though there are some churches in
the territory not yet represented.
The arrivals last night were as fol-
lows:
Rev. NJ. A. Hoag, of the Silver City
circuit, which includes congregations
in mining camps and small towns in
Grant county.
Rev. William Reese, pastor of the
First Methodist church at Ration.
Rev. ]. NJ. Jackson. pastor Of the
First Methodist church Of Silver
City,
Rev. A. ]. Steel, pastor of the First
Methodist church of Santa Rosa.
Rev. W. A. Pratt, pastor of the
new First Methodist church Of Es-
tancia,
From all parts Of the territory the
ministers are reporting prosperity in
church work, as we'll as in industrial
lines.
The conference promises to be one
of the most profitable ever held in
New Mexico. Bishop Earl Cranston
Is present and has infused much en-
thusiasm into the work in hand.
Though the reports are not all in
as yet il is already evident that the
membership of the church has been
materially increased during the past
year. The various churches of the
territory are in very good financial
condition. The congregation at Es-
tancia has just dedicated a new edi-
fee costing over $4,000.
The report of Rev. Samuel Blair,
superintendent of Methodist mis-
sions of the territory, which is pub
lished herewith, shows the conditions
of the Methodist church in New
Mexico to be particularly prosperous.
This report is a very ineligible re-
sumo of the years work and con-
tains much interesting and valuable
information as well as a history Of
the church in New Mexico.
The conference will continue in
session until Sunday The appoint
ments will probably be made sun
day.
The program tonight includes a
song and praise service at 1880
o'clock and an address by Bishop
Cranston at s o'clock.

CHINATOWN CLEANED BY
BUBON|C PLAGUE

Inspectors at Work ErddiCdt.
Ing Disease From FriS.
cos Oriental Quarter.

Seattle, Wash, oct. 24.-Dr. A. s.
Oliver, special medical inspector, who
Is directing the campaign here for
the eradication of the bubonlc plague
started out with a force of sub-in-
spectors today to clean up the Orien-
tai quarter. No new cases of the
plague have developed.
The plague situation is much i'm
proved and there seems reason TO
believe that the efforts of the in
spectors will be rewarded by the dis
ease being eradicated. The theory
that rats aided I'm spreading the germ
has also proved a tenable one. and
the destruction of rodents in all parts
of the city doubtless aided in the
work of sanitation.
The disease, which is the genuine
bubonic plague of the Orient, was
brought here by Asiatics, and was
to spread by them before
they notified the white officials of
their plight. There have been 76
cases to date with a mortality of SO
per cent, and Of the remainder I6
are still IN, though improving. Ten
are still confined in the detention
camp, though none of these were af-
hicted, having only been exposed to
the cOntagion.

Roswell, N. NJ, oct. 24.-"The
people of the Pecos valley are for
statehood unanimously. / will leave
today for Lincoln and Otero coun-
ties.--George Curry"
The above telegram was received
by The Citizen office today and 1t
illustrates the system by which the
new governor does things. Governor
Curry as man OF action, is making
a trip through the territory and will
visit as many counties as possible for
the purpose of interesting the people
in the organization of statehood
leagues He Is we'll aware that many
districts do not have TO be visited by
himself or any one else for the peo-
pie are alive to the work before them
just as in Bernalillo county.
I'm other districts. while every one
is for statehood, some do not realize
that an organization, which will
present the solid front of every par
ty and faction, is required,
AS a result of the governors work,
statehood leagues will be organized
in the counties of the Pecos valley
and the people will cooperate with
him In the statehood fight.
Governor Curry desires to first or
ganlze the territory thoroughly and
he will then carry the fight to Wash
ington. leaving behind him the solid
vote of the territory and the sup
port Of all her people regardless of
party or of party beliefs.
The governor was scarcely I'm Of
fee until he opened the statehood
campaign and he has prosecuted it
vigorously ever since with the aid of
the party leaders and county chair
men.
He expects to return to the capital
during the coming week.

MEN OF MONEY
ARE GIVING AID
Most Acute Local Crisis Since
1884 Is Fast Passing Away In
Empire City and Confidence
Is ReSuming Sway
Rapidly.

New York, Oct. 24.-A series of
conferences last night participated in
by Secretary Cortelyou, ]. Pierpont
Morgan, John A. Stewart James
Stillman, and other representative
men of affairs, disclosed an agree
ment in opinion that the banking
situation is well in hand and that
with government deposits to be made
by Secretary Cortelyou today, there
will not only be enough cash on
hand, but even more than might be
needed safely in any emergency.
you said he had directed deposits
in this city of twenty-five million
dollars and predicted a speedy re-
turn of confidence, which circum-
stances, he declared. warrant
Factors i'm Improvement.
The run on the Trust Company of
America was continued this morning.
The determination of other trust
companies to aid the Trust Com
nounoed part in the efforts to stay
the panic, and the reassuring state
ments by John d. Rockefeller and
other men of money, 1t Is believed.
cannot fail to help what is in some
respects, the most acute money crisis
New York has seen since the Grant
Ward failure in 1884.
Governor Hughes prompt appoint
ment of a new superintendent of
banks in the person of Clarke Will
lam, a prominent banker here, to
fill the vacancy created this week,
and steps to have the Knickerbock-
er Trust company resume business,
are other satisfactory signs.
Temporarily Suspended.
The Hamilton bank on West 125th
street and the 18th Ward bank to-
day suspended payments to deposit
tors. The banks claim to be solvent
and propose to reopen when public
confidence is restored.
The Umpire City Savings bank,
also posted a notice of suspension
for thirty days under the banking
laws. Its officers feared a run, they
s9id because of the suspension of
the Hamilton and Twelfth Ward
banks, which are in the same neigh
borhood. The Empire City Savings
bank owes depositors about three
millions of dollars.
Small Institutions.
The Hamilton bank was not a
large institution but had deposits of
about seven millions. +. r. Thorn
as, who was associated with Heinze
and Morse in several financial ven-
lures, resigned as president after the
break in United Copper, and Will
lam r. Montgomery was elected

SAYS DEFENDANTS
ARE SINGLED OUT
he Concluded Address by Defense
ofNeWIY0rk FinanCiers Whom
He Declares Benefit the
Whole Country In In
eStlmdble Measure.

Chicago, Oct. 24.-DeIegates to the
National Civic Federation today were
eagerly discussing remarks made at
the meeting last night by Charles G..
dawes, ex-comptroller of the cur
rency. Dawes made q sharp attack
upon the federal department of JUS
tice, virtually charging the officers
or the attorney generals depart
ment, with making gallery plays"
He said in part:
Il cannot say that 1t is intentional
on the part of the department of JUS
tice, but some OF its actions look re-
markably as If favoritism was being
displayed in the selection of combi-
nations to be Investigated, and in
the manner of attack. 1t is remark
able that cases handled by the de-
partment of justice always are tried
into the courts"
Defends Finanuers.
He then entered upon a defense
of the financiers of New York, as
serting that they are doing a good
work for the whole country, the
value of which is hard to estimate.
They are seeking" he said, TO
uphold the credit upon which pros
perity rests.''
In conclusion he urged an amend
ment to the Sherman antitrust law
SO as to avoid the implication that
all combines are OF criminal charac-
ter, and then more specifically indi-
cate which are criminal.
Address Much Discussed.
Dawes address today was the
chief topic to discussion, and while
several papers on topics of consid-
cradle interest were read before the
federation by leading men of the ma
tion, the remarks of the ex-comp-
troller took precedence over all else,
and overshadowed all other express
sions.
Just what was Dawes idea at this
dime in taking up such a procedure.
is not known, nor did he give any
reason, further than his desire to
show that the department of justice
Is making a farce" of itself. He
arraigned AttorAey General Bona
parte in no uncertain terms both
during his address and in discussion
afterward.
The general trend of the meeting
of the federation has been toward
the idea that most trusts and COM
binationS are criminal" hence
Dawes speech was somewhat diff
ferent from the usual order.

two hundred of their countrymen
were delayed on board ship by sani-

hundred Chinese, who had just land
ed, made a murderous assault last

by a large force of federal troops
and gendarmes.
The Orientals were enraged beyond
measure when the sanitary inspec-
tors refused 10 permit all the pas
sengers in two sections OF the steer
age on the Woolwich 10 land, many
Of those who did land being related
to those who were detained.

attack nearly released the imprisOn-
ed men.
