.sHONTS SPOKE TODAY
Before the Waterways Congress at
chicago-John A. ockerson Al
so Delivered Address.

Special to the Herald.
Chicago, Oct 9.-Theodore Shonts,
the railway magnate, and John A.
Ockerson, a ST. Louis; member of the
Mississippi River Commission, were
the principal speakers before the
waterways convention today. Ocker-
son described a tour made by him
over the Europena waterways which
have been developed to a point of
great commercial Importance. He
says the Mississippi is far superior to
many of the European rivers that are
now carrying commerce and giving
great assistance to the transportation
facilities of the country.
Shonts warmly supports the lakes
to the gulf waterway, and said all rail-
roads and railroad men favored water
improvements. He declared the vol
ume of freight had increased to such
an extent that the railroads needed
assistance in handling it. Although
the proposed waterway would parallel
the Chicago & Alton, Shonts' road, he
declared he would like to see it push
ed through to completion
Shonts bitterly condemned the New
York laws regulating railroads, and
declared that he preferred government
ownership rather than an extension of
such laws.
All of the former chief officers of
the organization were reelected this
afternoon.
The convention adjourned, after Sc
lecting New Orleans as the next place
of meeting.

London, Oct. 9.-The European war
cloud is growing blacker day by day.
1t is expected that Servia will declare
war on Austria at any hour now be-
cause of the annexation of Bosnia

in event of war, England is preparing

fleet to Lemons, indicating that it
will support Turkey, and intends to
play an important part in the coming
trouble. If Servia and Austria fight
| it is believed it will involve the whole
Balkan.

ORTICULTURAL BOARD
TO ORCHARD OWNERS

Following is a circular letter that
has been sent to the orchard owners
of Chaves county:
Dear Sir:-The outlook for very
large apple crop this year is very
promising and this Board wishes to
impress upon you and every owner
of an orchard in Chaves county, the
great necessity of most thorough
spraying OF your orchard this year.
Last year nearly all fruit in the val
ley was KILLED by freeze, (the first
year il the history of the valley with
no apple CROP. Great numbers of the
codling moth were killed by not hav
ing apples to feed upon, and if every
one sprays thoroughly this year we
believe we can nearly eradicate this
little pest, for the time being at
least
From the past experiences of the
Board we are more than ever con,
vinced that spraying thoroughly at
the time required by this Board mere
tofore is the right and most success
1ul llIl6, lu6Ie1OIe dll vi uo Will
be required to be sprayed as follows:
The first spraying to be done when
the blossoms are in full bloom, and
beginning to fall off. The second one
to be done not later than 10 to Is
days after the first spraying. The
third spraying to be done at some
time in the month of June. The fourth
spraying to be done in August prefer
ably from goth to 30tn
While this Board does not wish to
load any extra expense upon any or
chardist in Chaves county, they will
see that the law is strictly enforced
ia EVERY CASE, as this will be the
only way possible to protect the fine
orchards of this valley against the
codling moth, the only pest that we
have And when all persons properly
spray the loss from this moth is re
duced to a minimum or entirely dona
away with. The county will not run
a sprayer this year, as our merchants
now carry a stock of sprayers, and
every one can own sprayer and
thereby be able TO spray much cheap
er than the county can do it fo1
them.

PREPARE TO SMUDGE
ON FROSTY MORNINGS.

The fruit outlook was never better
in the Pecos Valley. While this fact
cannot be disputed, the dangerous
part of the season is yet TO be pass
ed, and no precaution should be over
looked. If the orchard owners will but
take a little extra trouble they may
save themselves thousands of dollars
in damage by frost. BY scattering old
musty, worthless hay in littls<p5iles
about their orchards anAkeeping
themselves posted on w weather
forecasts, they can %e smudge
fires in their orchards on frosty
nights and protect the early fruits.
The special reports of the weather
bureau are now being received, and
will continue for three months They
can be secured absolutely free by
merely telephoning central. 1t means
a little extra trouble, but it may mean
thousands of dollars.

Tariff Bill Defeated,

The Mock Senate met Tuesday eve
ming at the Baptist church, and the
Tariff Revision Bill was again taken
up. Senators Harrington, Parsons OF
Iowa, Walker of Montana and Parsons
of Minnesota addressed the Senate
regarding the bill. Senator Elliott
wished to speak on the bin, but it
was ruled that as he had used his en-
tire time on the bill at the last ses-
sion he was not entitled to further
time
Owing to the tactics of Parsons of
rupting speakers and talking on their
time, apparently with their consent, a
rule was passed prohibiting any sen
ator from using another senator's
time, except to ask a question, with
out unanimous consent At 80 the
yeas and nays were called, and it de-
veloped that the bill was defeated by
the decisive vote of Is to 9.
At 10 D. m the Senate suspended
business and listened to reading and
an Grafton by c. R. Huss, which were
very much enjoyed. The Senate ad-
journed at 10: 40. The next business
on the calendar is a resolution re-
garding American passports in for
eign countries, though it is expected
that the bill for the colonization OF
negroes will be called up by u1ani-
nous consent at the next session, as
a number of senators are preparing
pyrotechnic displays for the occasion

Theatrical Lecture to Students.

Claud Olding, of the Whyte ORA
matte Co. gave a very interesting
talk before the students of the High
School yesterday morning, his theme
being 1.-The Theatre and It's Mission
Amongst other good things said that
were worth while he said that the
people in a great degree made the
stage what it is. If the public de-
manded wholesome, uplifting playa
the managers and actors would be
compelled to give them, and would
gladly do so. He complimented the
town upon the local management and
employees of the Majestic. Mr.. Old
ing insisted upon the great import
ance of the theatre as an educational
power, and begged the students to
patronize only those shows which are
clean and uplifting. He also spoke of
the many hardships of the actors
life His talk was of very high Or
der, and he was given a most hearty
reception.

ENGINEERS
SELECTED

At meeting of the Roswell Water
works and Sewers Commission, held
last night and continued through a
greater part of this morning, it was
decided that Burns & Mcdonnell, OF
Kansas City, should be the engineers
to have in charge the work of putting
in the city water plant and sewer sys-
TEN. The contract is not closed, but
probably will be this afternoon. 1t is
contingent, of course, on the sale of
the bonds.
The bid of Burns & Mcdonnell was
not the lowest, nor the highest bid
but the selection was made largely
on account of the fact that their of
fer was more specific, more detailed
and many ways considered the best
of all. They are to make the plans
and specifications, attend the letting
of all contracts, superintend the con
struction and installation of tho
plants and do all the engineering
work and perform all the professional
services necessary to the undertake
ing. They are to see the whole prop
osition through from start to finish
and give a good fidelity bond for
$4,000 for the faithful performance of
their work.
The firm comes with long list of
recommendations from cities where
they have installed such plants. The
Record will probably be abb to give
the contract and bid of the successful
engineers in tomorrow's paper.
