Santa Fe, n. M, Aug. 19.-(Spe-
Cial) Amid scene of widest en-
thusiasm, cheering of delegates and
muse from the bands, w, IL. An
6rews, The Man Who Does Things
was nominated delegate to Congress
by the Republican territorial conven-
ton shortly after 6 o'clock last night.
Gut of $50 votes Andrews received
116, c. A. Spiess, another candidate,
was second, with A, and Edward A.
Mann, a third candidate. received 20.
But the thing that is more pleasing
today than the convention of yester-
day, is the fact that the Republican
rarty Is united more strongly tnan
ever old enmities have been buried
and w. H. Andrews will go into the
campaign certain of election by the
biggest majority ever given Repub-
lican delegate to Congress in New
Mexico.
Hon. II. o. Bursum, who is one "
the strongest leaders in the party, was
today again selected to lead the fight
as chairman of the central committee,
and he will have at his disposal every
wing and former faction of the party
with which to put up a big fight
against the Democrats. Even Il. b.
Catron, who made the only radical
speech against MIR. Andrews in the
convention, has announced in public
speech and in a public statement that
he is going into the fight under the
Andrews statehood banner and that
ne will do everything in his power to
elect w. II. Andrews. Both G. A.
Spiess and f. A. Mann in speeches
before the convention pledged their
untiring support in time, money and
IL rfluence to Mr.. Andrews, and that
they could do no better than to work
for Andrews from now until he 3
elected.
Governor Curry never made a big
ger nit in his life-and he has made
many than when he went before the
convention last night, and, after stat
ing plainly that he had favored the
candidacy of another besides Mr.. An
drews, still that from now until An
drews was elected he would be in thC
command of the campaigners and will
work in every way for Mr.. Andrews
success and for statehood in New
Mexico.
There is nothing but harmony IN
the Republican camp today and the
Republicans never faced a campaign
with stronger candidate and q
stronger fighting force than upon thi,
occasion. The scene preceding the
nomination yesterday was mem orable
The enthusiasm Was near the tor
notch and each delegation kept NJ
a continued huzza for its candidate
Nothing better illustrates the fast
that the Republican party is a live
wire than that after the hot contest

Carmack Died Instantly.

He fell on his right side and was
lying with one hand raised to his face.
His revolver fell to the street by his
side and was picked up and turned
over to the police. Mr.. Carmack was
in all probability dead when he fell
as three bullets had been fred into
his body. Colonel Cooper, it is un-
derstood, drew his pistol, but did not
fire.
After the shooting the Coopers re-
paired to the nearby Office of physi-
clan, where young Cooper's wound,
which is slight, was dressed and he
and his father were placed under ar,
rest. The wounded man, under
charge of an officer, was taken to a
hospital and spent a quiet night
In the doctors Office Colonel Cooper
turned over his revolver, none of the
chambers of which had been emptied,
to Sergeant Reid. Robin Cooper
turned his revolver over to Patrol
man Vaughan and one empty shell
dropped out of the magazine when 1t
was unbreeched. 1t was an automatic
magazine revolver and it was not
known how many shots had been
fired, but it was thought that an ex
animation would show three. Two
chambers of the revolver of Senator

KAISER BRANDED
AS INDISCREET
Recent Interview Discussed
in the Reichstag.
GERMANY HURT ABROAD

Speakers Declare the Personal EIe-
ment in Foreign Politics Dangerous
and Assert That Responsible Off
ciaIs Should Pass on the Emperor's
Remarks--Had Offender Been Any
One Else He Would Be Prosecuted.
Berlin, Nov. 1.-THE opening OF
the debate in the reichstag on EN-
peror Williams interview as pub
lished in the London Daily Telegraph
found the chamber fuller than 1t has
ever been before on the occasion of
an important political event All the
ministers, excepting Foreign Secre-
tary Won Schoen, were present, the
royal, diplomatic and public galleries
were crowded and there was not
vacant seat on the members benches.
The interpretations regarding this
interview, which has been character
lied as highly indiscreet, were taken
up at once. Herr Rassermann, Ma
tional Liberal, opened the debate. He
expressed hearty desire for the con-
tinuance of friendly relations with
foreign countries and said he be-
lieved that very small proportion OF
the German people was unfriendly to
Great Britain. The personal elements
in foreign politics were dangerous,
he declared, and the higher a man

of his utterances. Responsible OIL
cials should examine his remarks.
The National Liberals did not desire
the resignation of Chancellor Won Bue-
low. but they did want the elimination
of the personal element from the con-
duct of foreign affairs, as it's continu-
ance was bound to bring failure.
Continuing, Herr Rassermann re.
cited the evil effects of the emperors
utterances. He said that China, ia
pan and America had taken note OF
the fact that the German fleet had
been authoritatively described as de
signed for action in the Pacific. The
Japanese press had been in an uproar
over this declaration, Great Britain
had been stirred to greater naval
preparations and Germany's relations
had become worse with well nigh al
the principal powers, but especially
with France, Russia, Great Britain
and Japan. There ought to be an enc

ference with the responsibilities o.
the chancellor such as had been man
ifested recently In the Tower-Hill ant

the entire German people were of one
mind concerning the ruincus effects
of direct imperial interference In the
foreign affairs of the empire. Loya

the tremendous sensation caused
throughout the state and the South by
the killing of former Senator Edward

l The articles were caustic criticism Of
the policies of Democratic leaders

were made to Colonel Cooper.
