Last Month Was the Coolest Nav on

from the meteorological standpoint
the month Of May just past was a
most remarkable one throughout the
United States and even at Santa Fe
the weather cut unusual capers al
though in less disagreeable degree
Than elsewhere. It was by far the
coldest May recorded during the thir.
ty-five years that the weather bureau
has been keeping records at Santa
re. The average temperature was
only 49.4 degrees. The next coolest
May was that of 1891 with an average
temperature of 52.9 degrees consider
ably higher than this years record.
May 1883 had been the record-break-
er before that for low temperature
but even it showed an average of 53.8
degrees. The average daily tempera-
ture in May this year was 6.6 degrees
below the normal The minimum tenn
perature of 26 degrees on May Is is the
lowest on record except that Of "a
degrees on May 2, 1887 and on May
3, 1899, but which occurred much
earlier during the month. 1t was in
deed extraordinary for so low a tenn
perature to be recorded so late in the
month. May was also more than or
dinarily moist this year and only sew.

Fast Train Goes
Into Ditch Near
Lamy
NO TRAINS EITHER WAY
Trans Continental Traffic
on Santa Fe at Complete
Standstill Today.

A freight wreck about 6 o'clock this
morning at a point five miles south
of Lamy Junction has caused tie
up Of the main line Of the Atchison.
Topeka and Santa Fe Railway The
indications are that the track will not
be cleared before night. According
10 accounts no one was killed Or even
seriously injured but details are un-
obtanable,
Ten Cars Ditched and Track Torn Up.
The train wrecked was a westbound
freight. 1t is reported that the track
was torn up for considerable dis
tance and that ten freight cars went
into the ditch, and were more Or less
demolished. 4 brakeman of the
wrecked train was dispatched to Lamy
to notify the division headquarters of
the accident and wrccking crew
was sent to the scene from Albuquer-
que. At noon the Wreckage had not
been cleared and the New Mexican
was informed that it was doubtful II
the track would be passable until late
this evening.
Traffic Interrupted All Day.
While no lives We're lost the wreck
is nevertheless a disastrous one as 1t
caused a decentralization of schedules
and the interruption of traffic for at
least twelve hours 1t is understood
that division officials who went to the
scene of the wreck from Albuquerque
inspected the roadbed Of the Santa Fe
Central Railway with view to de-
touring passenger trains over that
road from Kennedy TO Santa Fe and
thence over the branch line of the
Santa Fe system from here % IIamy.
However, it is said that this plan was
abandoned because it was feared that
the big passenger locomotives would
be too heavy for. the wooden bridges
on the Santa Fe Central line between
this city and Kennedy.
Cause OF Wreck Unknown.
The Santa Fe-Lamy branch train
scheduled to leave here at Sis this
morning for the junction did not pull
out until this afternoon at 1 o'clock,
when it left to bring in local passen-
gers and mail from the California
Limited which is being held at Lamy.
No information has been received
here as to the cause of the wreck.
The supposition is that the train broke
in two in going down grade, but this,
of course is simply conjecture.
Trains Held at Albuquerque.
Special to The New Mexican
Albuquerque, n NJ, June G.-East
bound passenger train No. is held at
this station owing to the ditching of
through freight train near Kennedy
sixty miles east of here. 1t is not
known when the passenger train can
proceed. 1t is understood that the
freight train went into the ditch and
tore up the track for a hundred yards
or more. A wrecking crew and train
have been dispatched from here.
Local railroad officials state that no
one Is known to have been killed, but
as the wrecked train is fifteen miles
from telegraph station, details are
lacking. 1t will be necessary to clear
the track and bring the wrecked train
to the siding at Kennedy before traf-
flc can be resumed All west-bound
trains will be held at Lamy Junction
in the meantime.
