WITH LIMITED
Two Trains Met Head-On at . Water
Tank Near Needles

Passenger train No. .. which ar
rived here yesterday morning, and
the California Limited, which passed
through Friday. met In head-on
collision at small station west OF
Needles, Call, Saturday morning, and
narrowly escaped a disastrous acci-
dent. Only the engine OF the Limited
was disabled and the passengers OF
the two heavy trains were slightly
Jared.
The collision is thought to have
been the result of the train crew on
No. 2 not obeying orders. Both
trains had orders to meet at q water
tank. The flyer had the main line
and was standing at the tank. when
the eastbound train dashed around a
curve and crashed into It, instead OF
slowing up and taking the sioing,
which would have allowed the limit
ed to proceed on the main line.
When II was seen that q collision
was unavoidable, the enginemen
jumped. but neither engine was dam
aged so much that It would have been
dangerous for men in the cabs.

.PtTIINE GUILTY OF
SECOND DEGREE MURDER
Jury Has Long Session TO Arrive at a
Verdict in the Case.

Having been given temporary mo-
tice that the defense would file a
motion for a new trial. Judge Ira
A. Abbott yesterday morning allowed
Antimo Pettine. slayer Of Beridette
Berardineili. to continue at freedom
upon the same bond he furnished
previous to his trial, despite the fact
that the jury after eight hours of de-
liberation, found him guilty OF mur-
der In the second degree, and last
night Pettine. with his attorney, T. B.
Catron, returned to Santa Fe. Aside
from giving notice that ne would ask
for a new trial, Mr.. Catron asked and
was granted an extension of time In
which to make his motion.
The trial OF Pettine came to a
close Saturday evening after having
run three days course, and was
probably next in importance on the
docket to the Donahue casa. Pettine
shot and killed Benidetto Berardinel-
Il, a well known stone mas III of this
city. The killing was the result Of
quarrel over a letter, which Ber-
ardinelh received and charged Pet
tine with writing. The latter denied
1t and according to the testim ony
produced In court, greatly resented
| the allegation. The two men mel
twice on the morning OF February 4
1907, on North Third street. Pettine
| shot Bernardinelli the second time
\ they met and made good mis- escape.
| After several months of hiding, he
| communicated with the authOritirt
and agreed 10 come In II he would DC
| allowed to give bond, which was
finally fixed at $4,000.
| Pettlne is a medium sized. middle
aged Italian, with very florld com.
| plexion. He is a stone mason by
trade. He came to this country re-
Gently from italy, and as evid nee
against his character, the prosecu
ton showed that he lad stabbed q
relative in Italy and had been zen
fenced there for the deed TO the pen
itentiary. Another startling bit o
evidence the prosecution produced
at the close OF the trial was that Pct
tine stated in Santa Fe that he haC
intended to kill three men at tn,
time ne killed Berardinelli. he othe
two being Caesar and Charles Grandt
OF this city. 1t was said that Pettint
at one time wanted to marry
daughter of one OF the Grand,
brothers.
How the jury stood on the tria
vote is known, but that this verde
was reached with great d fticuliy
believed owing to the length of I m
It deliberated. The verdict Is believed
to have been a compromise and tina
while the majority Of the jury wer
for conviction In the first and secon'
degree, there were some who favore,

ROOSEVELT TO SUGGEST
SOLUTION OF SOME
PROBLEMS
The Presidents Next Message
viii Differ From
His Former
Efforts.
CONGRESS TO HOLD
VERY SHORT SESSIONS
Supply Bills VIII Take Up Most o1
the Time and But Little Effurt
Will Be Made This Win
ter TO Pass Any
New Laws. .s

Washington, ID. c., Nov. a.
Something out of the ordinary may
be expected in President Roosevelt's
message to the coming session of
congress. 1t will be his last utter
ance of this character. and it will be,
In sense. his valedictory.
The message will be to the Ameri-
can people more than 10 Congress-.
II will. of course. be prefaced by the
usual forms. but its spirit will be
something quite outside the usual
discussion of pending or prospective
legislation.
In saying farewell to the Ameri-
can public, and stepping down from
the very elevated position which he
has occupied for nearly eight years,
President Roosevelt will add a god
speed. He will cast his eye back
over his term of office and ahead to
some of the problems which must
be faced by his successors, and will
itry to point out some dangers which
the country faces, Offering his coun-
sci as to what should be done
what course should be followed--in
averting them.
The message, 1t Is understood. will
be discussion of broad principles
rather than specific remedies, and
the whole will be on an extremely
high plane,
Contrary to his. usual customs, the
president is discussing his message
with nobody. The first draft OF II
has been completed for some time.
but up to this time the only person
who has read II Is President-eiec
/ rTo utl 49,
Sunday visit was at the presidents
request and the reading of the mes
sage was the main purpose of his
looming.
Naturally there will be some ref
erence to pending and previously
recommended legislation, but such
reference will be brief. In the first
place. the president is quite aware
of the temper OF the old Republican
house leaders and the rather hopeless
prospect of any affirmative legisla-
ltlon important in character. In the
second place the president has little
to add to what ne already has said
Anything ne would say would be apt
Ito be repetition and argument.
In general it may be said that

of the usual supply bills In addi-
ltion to this work there are some
things which have come over from
last winters deliberations. Child la
Dor legislation Is on the calendar In
the senate; the state conservation
project Is hung up in one of ths
house committees as Is the Appa-
lachlan forest reserve bill. AT
amendment to the sherman law In
tended to better regulate trusts II
among the buried relics, along with
the bills TO impose the cost of acci'
dents on the industry in which the,
occur. To such things as these tn
president will point in calling atten
tion to the things which Congress
must, sooner or later, take up anc
deal with according TO the bes
lights and the real wishes Of tn
Tpeople.

HIS TESTIMONY
According to the Prosecution He
Knows of Business Since
1882 and Must Tell What
He Knows of the
OIL Trust.

New York, Nov. 23.--Whether
John d. Rockefeller will be COM
PEELED to enlarge the scope of his
testimony, was question when the
hearing of the governments suit to
dissolve the Standard Oil was re-
sumed today. 1t has been the plan
of the Standards attorney to have
Rockefeller tell the comparative early
years of the company's existence.
and his direct examination included
no reference to any happenings later
than 1882.
1t was announced at that time
that the remainder of the Stand
ards story would be told by Arch
bold and the othe officers of the
company, who were more familiar
than Rockefeller with the happenings
Iof the last quarter of century. The
government counsel Kellogg. con-
tends, however. that Rockefeller
himself by one of his answers made
Il possible for the government to go
as far as it likes in the cross exam
nation. In the direct testimony
Rockefeller said that the business OF
refining oil was a hazardous one and
In the cross examination Rockefeller
stated that the business was hazard
ous "even up to the present time"
kellogg maintains the statement
that the oil business Is hazardous
l'up 10 the present tiyie.f opens up
that whole period Of the standsrd's
history.
Rockefeller was called to the wit
ness stand when the Standard OIL
hearing was resumed today. During
his examination he testified that, he
did not conceive the plan Of forma-
tion for the original Standard OIL
trust in 1889.

Rockefeller. 81 cannot claim any
credit for that. Flsgler and g. c.
