TUBES ILLEGALLY STAMPED
Evidence In Government Case Against
Contractors.

Pittsburg, May 1O.-In the United
States district court the trial Of J. Jay
Dunn and Charles L. Close, charged
with defrauding the government In
furnishing defective boiler tubes, was
resumed. The witnesses were en-
ployes of the Shelby Steel Tube COM
pany, who testified to the methods Of
having defective tubes passed.
Elmer s. Mason corroborated the
testimony OF Frank Emmett. who
turned states evidence, relative to the
opening of the desk In which the gov
ernment inspector kept his stamp. He
said he had very frequently seen Ma
son going through the mill yards
stamping tubes the inspectors had
never seen.
Perry M. Thompson, another en-
ploye, said that when the exposure
was first made Close and an attorney
called him into the Office of the plant
and asked him what he knew about
the matter The attorney told him he
would probably be called as witness
and that If he was not to give the
government attorneys the impression

CROWS MORE SERIOUS
Freight Congestion In New York
HarbOr Following Strike.
TWELVE THOUSAND MEN OUT


ping Companies Determined in
Their Positions and an Early End Of
the Trouble Seems Unlikely.
New York, May 10.-The gravity in
the longshoremen's strike grows with
the hours. This Is principally because
the congestion Of freight Is becoming
rapidly greater, the total monetary
loss being reckoned at about 100000,
involving business in many parts of
the country 1t Is also because an ele-
ment of tho strikers seem to be ready
to resort to violence, as was manifest
when 300 Italian and Polish strike
breakers were surprised and attacked
by several hundred strikers and their
sympathizers in Williamsburg and a
knives and clubs were used and num-
bers of persons were hurt, including
some policemen. Then again both
sides show fixity of purpose which
does not presage an early end of the
trouble. The strikers, who now num-
ber about 10000, declare that they will
not yield unless their demands for
higher scale of wages are granted and
the steamship companies are equally
insistent that no concessions will be
made by them and that they will stand
together to resist the mems exactions.
Meantime Police Commissioner Bing-
ham has taken the precaution to keep
In reserve at the stations all the po-
ltcemen except those on patrol
j. H. Thomas, operating manager OF
the International Mercantile Marine
company, speaking for the transatlan-
tic lines involved In the strike, said
that the heads of all those lines had
discussed the situation They were
unanimous, he said, in the position
that the demands Of the strikers were
exorbitant, that the companies could
not afford to meet them and that the
strikers places would be filled with
other men at the present scale. The
companies will bend their energies to
getting the vessels away on schedule
time, even IL this be with partial car
goes.

CHANGED A WORD.
Telegram Which Brought Grief
to Brothers in Campbell
County.

Herreid. May o." Adam and Lizzie
both dead and Jacob not expected to
live.
This was the startling message re-
ceived by John and Karl Bollinger,
residents of Campbell county, who
with all possible haste made rrepara-
tions and departed for Medina, N. D.,
from which point the telegram was
sent. Adam and Lizzie, who were re-
ferred to in the telegram, ale the
brother and sister of John and Karl
Bollinger, and had departed for Medina
only few days before for the purpose
of visiting their brother, jacob, who
was seriously i'll.
When the brother and sister departed
they were in the best Of health, and
when the telegram was received it was
supposed they had been victims of an
accident. But it developed that
through peculiar mistake on the part
Of the telegraph operators who sent or
received the message, the brother and
sister were reported to be dead when
| they We're alive and well.
The telegram as it was sent from
Medina read as follows:
adam and Lizzie here and Jacob
not expected to live
Thas the changing of the word
here, to dead in the transmission
of the telegram caused unnecessary
grief to the two brothers who remained
in South Dakota and was responsible
for them making needless trip.

Similar conditions nave existed dur
ing the past year in regard to cattle
shipments, and cattle raisers have
suffered severe losses on of
the lack of cars. This is a grave
matter which is being thoroly inves-
tigated by the Interstate Commerce
Commission, and before any legislation
is passed, thorough examination of
the hearings of that Commission on
the subject would be advisable.
The Cattle Sanitary Board, which
has also been very efficiently managed
recommends the amendment of the
law governing the sale of estrays, as
the present procedure is so long, cum
bersome and expensive that few per-
sons take advantage of it. The board
also recommends certain amendments
to the mans law. There is also a
general demand from the stockmen
from all over the Territory that the
hide law be SO amended that hide
buyers shall be forced to mark each
hide purchased before inspection with
SOnS marx OF tag SHOWING ITOm WHOIu
the hide was purchased. 1 would re-
specially recommend such amend
ment.
The Solicitor of the Department of
Agriculture of the General Govern
ment has also recommended to me,
upon my request for his opinion, GER
tain changes in our inspection laws.
and as it is our greatest interest to
cooperate in every way with the Blu
reau, 1 recommend that such suggest
ions be adopted.
Education.
In connection with the cause of edu
cation many gratifying things may be
said, but it is wise for us to know the
exact conditions. Our educational in
terests as they now exist are the ere
alton of a comparatively few years.
During this period the school laws
OF New Mexico have been frequently
revised and remodeled. In doing this
they have become necessarily bulky;
many contradictions and inconsistent
cies can be found In them. In some
places the language is such That the

Bureau of Immigration-From 60
to 124 per cent.
These represent items taken at ran
dom from the report of the Public
Printer.
If the Public Printer elected by the
Legislature farms out the work to
others, it is presumably necessary
that both ne and the party who actu-
ally does the work make reasonable
profit. There is absolutely no neces-
sity that a greater profit should be
paid by the Territory than by the in
dividual. Outside of certain large and
rich States such as Kansas and Cali
~fornia, which have their own print
ing establishments, there are very few
States il the Union at present that do
not let their printing contracts to the
lowest bidder. The detail provisions
under which this is done differs in
the different States, but the object
to be obtained is the same, that is to
say, to secure the best work for the
lowest possible price. I am of he
OpIAlOn that IulS mISul easily DS uOut
il the case of New Mexico, by the re-
peal of all the sections referred to
above except section 2615. of the Com
piled Laws of 1897. This would be
the O simple way of adjusting this
matter to the satisfaction of the tax
payers.
If, however, it should not be your
desire to adjust the question in this
manner 1 would suggest that the
present law be entirely repealed and
another one enacted in it's place which
will in a feasible way bring about the
desired result, and 1 would suggest
that after careful study of the ques--
ton the laws of New York and Colo
RADIO ave many excellent provisions
which would be of much use in the
drawing up of such a bill.
Cattle and Sheep Sanitary Boards.
The raising of sheep and cattle are
the two most important industries in
the Territory. The organization and
conduct of the Sheep and Cattle Sani-
tary Boards is a matter of much im-
portance not only to the stock raisers
but to the Territory ut large. ! In

Tine report of the Sheep Sanitary
Board gives a full account of the me-
J thods of carrying on its business, and
of the receipts and expenditures Of
that board, not only for the last two
| years but since the law was enacted
creating it. Since it's organization,
$S8,597.96 have been received from
fees on outgoing and incoming sheep,
from the territorial tax on sheep, from
fines and other sources; and $72, 89S.54
nave been expended for Inspectors
pay, salaries and other expenses.
There is or hand a surplus of $751;
699.42. Fifty-two inspectors are en-
ployed in various parts of the Terri
tory. There has been thorough CO.
operation between the board and the
Bureau Of Animal Industry of the
Department of Agriculture, in the
fight to eliminate diseases from the
sheep of the Territory, and h am

Bureau of Animal Industry snail be

movement for the eradication of scab-

The sheep grower of New Mexico
like all other business men who de-
pend upon the railroads for trans
porting their product, has during the
past year suffered great financial loss
through inability to secure cars, and
the board suggests That the territor-
ial legislature, if it has any power to
pass laws on this subject, should enact
legislation either in the way of com
polling the railroads to furnish cars
upon reasonable notice, or in the way
of giving intending shippers a right

cred.

ly. The law has served a good pur-
pose, but it would do much for the
cause of education if the legislature
would Great a small, competent com
mission to cooperate with the Terri
torial Board of Education in making
a complete revision or rewriting of
the existing laws.
In every enterprise, no matter whstd
its nature, tae most important fac
is competent supervision. Whet

Or one thousand, the proprietoro
chiefly anxious that he may get a cM
petent foreman. This principle dist cb,,
plies with great force to the work -
education. In city schools the most
important employee is the superinten-
dent. The same is true for a county
with its ten, twenty, or seventy teach
ers. The county superintendent is
the most important factor in our
school administration The most COM
petent, from an educational stand
point, should be placed in this ofice.
The tendency in all the older states
is to remove this Office from politics.
I recommend that suoh legislation

that will make women eligible to this

The salaries OF county school super
intendents should be re-adjusted. At
present the salary is gagged by the
legal classification of the county. TIE
amount of tax that a county pays into
the territorial treasury is no criterion
as to the duties and services demand
ed of a county superintendent. For
instance, Luna County is classed &C"
and the superintendent receives 5000
salary per a1num. Outside the cor

county superintendent has no jurisdis

alarm sounded and the fire was soon
located in the house OF Mary street
owned by AnsOn Somers. The house
was filled with smoke and a long
time no flames broke forth but smoul-

the chimney and in the partition be-
tween the sitting room and bedroom.
In some mysterious way the fire had
started on the floor and having burned
a large hole there crept up into the par
tition. No one was home at the time,
Mr.. and Mrs. SOmers being in Rich

by rats chewing at matches.
