Our butcher is a funny man
Perhaps you will recall
That recently the price OF meat
Took quite little fall.
Most people saw it in the news
And gobbled every word of it,
But by some singular misehance
Our butcher has not heared OF it.
And just to show how some folks
hear
The news and others don't,
And how one man will Sc a thing
Where another person won't
We read that groceries were down.
cThey printed quite a string of ID
But we find eur grocer does not know
A solitary thing of it.

Special to The New Mexican.
Carrizozo, ~ M, March 2S.--The
new railroad shops, including the
round-house, car shops and five en-
gines, of the Ell Paso AMI Southwest
ern Railroad at his point, were COM
pletely destroyed by fire here last
night entailing loss estimated at
$200,O00 The fire is supposed to
have originated from a lighted cigar
ette stub. The blaze started in the
tool room Of the main shop building
and had gained big start when 1t
was discovered. A high wind famed
the flames which soon spread to the
round-house which contained five new
engines and despite the concentrated
efforts of the trainmen this building
was destroyed together with the en-
glnes.
The railroad yards contained 300
loaded and empty cars. Thirty-five
cars of valuable freight on a track
paralleling the shops were only
saved by the heroic work of M.
B. Murphy, Conductor Jennings and
Engineer Croft, who assumed charge
of the situation and pulled the cars
to a place of safety. Engine Fore
man Gordon came near losing his life
in lis repeated efforts to get the en-.
gines from the blazing round-house.
One hundred and fifty men are in.
definitely thrown out of employment
as a result of the fire.

Mountains of Up

Magnificent.
SAYS WEALTHY CH|CAGOAN
Walter c. Hately in Love
With Country and Will
Build Villa There.

ut Is magnificent--beyond descrip-
tion. | have never seen finer noun
tain scenery anywhere and have trav-
eled the world over. During the sum-
mer time the valley must be ver-
table garden of Eden"
This is the enthusiastic manner in
which Walter c. Hately. prominent
commission merchant and capitalist
from Chicago, began extolling the
beauties of the upper Pecos region,
when seen today by a reporter OF the
New Mexican.
Mr.. Hately has just returned from
a trip through the picturesque sec
tion at the head waters of the Pecos
River. His object in going there was
to look around for suitable location
for summer cottage for himself and
family
Switzerland's famed mountain
scenery cannot surpass that which the
eye beholds in the vicinity OF Santa
Fe and thousands upon thousands of
people flock to Switzerland during the
tourist season simply for a glimpse
of the mountains. Switzerland has
every comfort to offer the traveller,
and the hotel Accommodations cannot
be excelled. There is very little ac-
-cOmodation on the other hand for
the casual tourist to the upper Pecos.
II should think that first-class
boarding house or small family no.
tel would be paying proposition at
the mouth of Indian Creek. It seems
to me that an Industrious couple
could make small fortune there in
few years by simply catering to
the tourist trade and advertising the
place as a summer resort.
"I rode from Sweeney's ranch
through the village of Pecos and into
Glorieta. | was In the saddle for
eight hours and 1t was the most ex-
. hilerating ride ever had in my life.
Leaving Santa Fe we went over the
old Santa Fe trail coming out on the
Pecos River at the mouth of Indian
Creek. We stopped over night at the
Valley Ranch where we found very
good accommodations If it wasn't for
its inaccessibility from a railroad
which however, is one of it's charms to
me, should think that this section
would be popular with tourists. It has
well stocked trout streams and
abounds with wild game in addition
to unrivaled scenery.
Mr.. Hately and his son Gordon who
is with him will leave either tonight
or tomorrow morning for vermijo,
where they will be guests for several
days Of Norman Bartlett.

STRIKE SEEMS
INEVITABLE
Trainmen Refuse to
Accept Offer of
Railroads.
WILL NOT ARB|TRATE
Although Managers Threat
en- to Invoke Aid of Erd.
man Act.

Chicago, March 2S.--The labor lead
ers in the conferences which were
interrupted yesterday by the refusal
OF the trainmen to accept the offer
OF the general managers Of the west
ern railroads met again today to con
slider the move suggested by the rail
road managers to avoid a strike The
general managers announced today
that they would invoke the aid Of the
Erdman act Of Congress which pro-
vides for the arbitration Of such Ques.
tions.
Provisions Of Erdman Act
The leaders of the labor interests
would not discuss this phase Of the
situation today and declared that they
were yet unable to say what they
viii do regarding it. The Erdman law
which was passed in 1898 provides
for a board of arbitration to consist
of three members, of which the rail-
roads choose one, the trainmen the
second and these two the third. II
no third arbitrator is selected inside
of three days the chairman of the
Interstate Commerce Commission Is
to name him with the APPROVAL OF the
labor commission. The trainmen
have repeatedly declared that they
will not arbitrate the question at Is
sue in the present controversy.
Walk-Out is Imminent.
Representatives of the trainmen
and conductors decided today
that they will ignore the prop
osition of the general managers
of the Western railroads look
ing to an arbitration of their differ
ences under the Erdman act and all
have voted to persist in their prepara-
tions for a general strike. They declare
that a walk-out Is imminent unless
the managers make some further
concessions.
