Writes to Albuquerque Grocery

And Other Things,

The fame Of Albuquerque and her
business houses and her low prices
is spreading abroad. through the me-
dunn of the growing circulation Of the
Morning Journal.
This is one fac Of interest. Another
as pointed out by Walter Jaffa, of
the Jaffa Grocery company, Is that
there are places in the sunny south
west where conditions aren't as happy
as hey are in Albuquerque, and peo-
pie who are not as comfortably fixed
for the winter as they might be.
All this is superindueed by a let
ter which the Jaffa Grocery company
received yesterday from a town over
beyond the Texas border, written be-
cause the woman who wrote 1t had
seen the advertisement of the Jaffa
Grocery in the Morning
Journal. The letter illustrates sew
eral things and If IT didn't is inter
estinp on it's own account. IT follows:

RAILROADS TO
FIGHT Low FARE

Lincoln, Neb., April 30-A letter
from Union Pacific headquarters to
the state railway commission yester
day intimates that the railroads CON
passenger fare law. The letter is IL
answer to an inquiry from the COM
omission asking why Nebraska patrons
were not being given the benefit CT
a tWO-cent rate on interstate travel
Replying to this the Union Pacific says
that lawyers of that line and others
are seriously disposed to unite in a
suit attacking the validity of the law
The letter further says it is inadvis-
able to rearrange it's interstate paSseD-
ger schedules until the two-cent fare
laws of Iowa and Missouri take effect
There is a chance, the letter says,
that tWO-cent fares may be declared
unconstitutional, and it is therefore
Iunwise to change the schedules at
present.
New York, April 3O.-The Tribune
says:
Certain stockholders OF the North
ern Pacific will, it is understood
bring a friendly suit against the Off
GERS of the company for an injunction
to restrain them from accepting for
the company the two cent fare law III
Minnesota. AS they could not bring
legal action against a sovereign state
their only alternative was to bring it
against the officials of the company.
The latter are compelled, unless e
strained by the courts, to comply
with the provisions Of the law. Those
familiar with This proposed action at
tach great Importance to it, as, if
an injunction is granted, it will serve
as stay to the enforcement of the
law as far as the Northern Pacific Is
concerned, for perhaps two years.
"The Great Northern company
doubtless will become party to the
proposed suit of the Northern Pacific
stockholders.

FLEEING INHABITANTS SAY
ERUPTION IS TERRIFIC

Messina, Sicily, May 1.-Some OF
the inhabitants of the island OF
StromboH who have fed from there
and reached this city describe the
eruption OF the volcano as terrific.
Red, burning stones, ashes and cind-
ers were thrown up, and about a
thousand feet over the top of the vol
cano, which is 3,04O feet above the
level of the sea, an immense black
umbrella shaped cloud has formed.
The industrious population of the is
land, ABOUT 1000 persons, had with
great efforts gradually cultivated the
sides of the volcano almost up to
the crater, chiefly as vineyards, but
the eruption has entirely destroyed
everything within a radius of 1900
feet of the crater and has seriously
damaged the rest of the island.

BETHEL GRANITE
FOR NEW CAPITOL
VERMONT STONE FAVORED FOR
THE STATEHOUsE.
HITCH WITH CONTRACTORS
Commission Has Difficulty in Reach
ing Satisfactory Terms and Final
Decision on Stone for Superstruc-
ture Waits-6etter Than Mime
sofa Building.

The capitol building commission
will meet today to decide finally up
on material for the construction of the
new Statehouse. The decision will
probably be in favor of white granite
from the Bethel quarries, Vermont
The commission met all day yester-
day, but arrived at no final decision.
Five or six bids were opened and con
.ferences were held with various con
tractors, but the commissioners sail
no terms had been agreed upon and it
was not yet determined whether 70
build of Bethel granite or Of Georgia
marble, although it is known that the
Vermont stone, white Bethel granite,
is in favor.
There seems to be some difficult
in agreeing with contractors On final
terms for the stone.
There were present at yesterday S
meeting Governor Davidson, George
H. D. Johnson Of Milwaukee and
Colonel William F. Villas of Madison,
members OF the commission, besides
mittee on capitol Commissioners y.
H. Ingram, Eau Claire, and H. J. Van
Cleve, Marinette, were absent and are
not expected to arrive today.
The foundation of the new west wing
is ready for the superstructure ana
work thereon awaits only the letting
of contracts for the stone The com
mission is confident that with the
plans agreed upon and the granite
practically selected, the new WiscOn-
sin capitol will be the finest building
in the northwest. A member of the
commission remarked yesterday, as
he pointed to two specimen blocks of
Bethel granite, IF we build our new
capitol with this stone, we will have
a building that will beat the Minnesota
capitol a mile"

SAY SUICIDE LIED.
Ante-Mortem Statement Controversies
by War Department.

Washington, April 30.-In reference
to the suicide Sunday in New York
of George Strom, late a member of
the United States army hospital CORPS,
who left a letter for the coroner al.
leging that he had made away with
himself because ne mad been wrong
fully convicted by a courtmartiaI and
discharged in disgrace, having had
no opportunity to crossexamine the
witnesses against him, and had been
denied the privilege of counsel, it
was stated at the war department
yesterday that a search of the re-
cords shows that the courtmartial
was held in the Philippines as a re-
suit of the charge that Sturm had
been guilty of conduct to the preju-
dice Of good order and discipline
in that as private lay dying in the
hospital, he (Sturm) had uttered the
words Let the - die" Or words
to that effect.
1t appears from the record of the
court that the accused stated that
he did not desire counsel" He OBJ,
Jected to First Lieutenant Widdi-
field of the Sth infantry sitting on
the court and Widdifeld was excused
and withdrew. The accused stated
that he had no further objection to
the members of the court" The re-
cord further shows that there were
TWO witnesses, both of whom testified
to the language used by Sturm; that
he declined to crossexamine one, but
did crosseXamine the other; that he
produced no Witnesses in his own be-
half and made no statement.

CABRERA FAILS

Guatemala City, Guatemala, May l.
Estrada Cabrera, president of Qua
temala, narrowly escaped assassina-
ton yesterday He left his private
residence at 1880 yesterday morning
for his customary drive accompanied
by his staff. While passing along
Seventh avenue, an explosion, at first
supposed to have been caused by a
bomb occurred, killing the horses at
tached to the presidential carriage,
Wounding the coachman and injuring
several staff officers including Gener-
al OrelIanna, chief of staff
The president who was not injured,
displayed great presence of mind
Alighting from the carriage he in
spected the surroundings and then
returned on foot to his residence.
A careful examination showed that
the explosion had been caused, not
by a bomb, but by mine. The con-
spiratOrs dug a tunnel from one Of a
group of houses rented by a man
named Rafael RodiI, placed explo-
Sives under the roadway and con-
nected them by wire with a battery
in Rodil's house and from there dis
charged the mine. Many suspects
have been arrested, but it is not
known whether the would-be as
sassins are among them.
