CAPTAIN FRANKLIN
IN TROUBLE
Must Face Court Martial on CHARGE
Of Most Serious
Nature.

El Paso, Tex, May "A special
dispatch from Washington to the
Times says:
Captain Thomas Franklin. United
States army. has been ordered to re-
port to Major General Leonard s.
Wood at Governors Island New York,
to face court martial on charges grow
ing out of his administration of af.
fairs in the quartermasters and com.
missary departments at West Point
from 1902 to 1908.
The nature of the. charges and
specifications. it is said. will make this
one Of the most important army court
martials since that when Oberlin M.
Carter was cashiered from the engi-
neer office
Captain Franklin was treasurer of
the United States military academy at
West Point, 1902-19Os, in which per
iod there passed through his hands
$2,000.000 in government funds. He
was known as the 'army's best bust.
ness man. and up to the time this
scandal was made public was at work
perfecting plans for the army and
navy club at Manila.
The exact amount which it Is al.
legged Captain Franklin is short is not
known, but 1t said it will run into
of thousands Of dollars.
Franklin is thirty-eight years old,

MANY GRAZING
PERMITS ASKED
Sheepmen Anxious to be Allowed to
Turn Their Sheep Loose in
Pecos National Forest.

~S~ ''~s'S'N' SbSSss
Applications are coming to the local
forest service bureau, thick and fast,
from sheepmen seeking permission to
Craze their sheep upon the Pecos Ma.
tional Forest land. The great num-
ber of applications made is due per.
haps to the dryness that prevails and
to the effect that a continued dry
spell is looked for which will make
grazing elsewhere very unsatisfactory.
Just what will be done by the forestry
department in regard to the grazing
applications is not yet known, but it
is understood that the department will
remain firm in refusal to permit any
grazing at this time. Last year on ac-
count of the great drought, sheep rails
ers were granted permission to Craze
their sheep on the forest lands. But
the experience of the forest depart
ment has been that the sheep when
permitted on the forest lands, destroy
all young tree growth and thus en-
danger the preservation of the forests.
This Objectionable feature now stands
in the way of the sheepmen and be.
cause Of 1t they will in all likelihood
have to look elsewhere for places on
which to turn loose their sheep. In the
meantime additional applications con-
tinue to flood the department.

GOVERNOR CURRY
His Interest in Good Roads, Forestry
and irrigation Appreciated In
Northwest.

Spokane, Wash, May 7-Governor
George Curry of New Mexico, has ap.
pointed the following committee to
confer with the board of control,
headed by r. Insinger of Spokane,
relative to irrigation, good roads and
forestry in New Mexico, with a view
to making the seventeenth session

Territory; w. S. Hopewell, Albu.

D. & r. C. SHOWS
LARGE EARNINGS
Increase in Operating Expenses and
Fixed Charges However During
March Was Heavy.

New York, May THE Denver E.
Rio Grande reports for March an in
crease in gross earnings of 1865 1892
and decrease in net earnings of $20-
1853 But the facts are not as bad as
the figures appear to indicate, since
the increase of $3S2,736 in operating
expenses was made up to $4,000 ad-
ditional maintenance charges. The
remainder comprised transportation
and general expenses. 1t is evident
that the maintenance might have
been considerably higher than in
March, 1908, and net earnings still
show an increase.
In addition to the higher operating
expenses, interest and other fixed
charges increased $4,000, so that
the surplus applicable to dividends
was reduced to the extent of $102, 1000,
or little more than half what it was
the year before, and despite the bet
ter gross earnings.
For the nine months of the fiscal
year the Denver & Rio Grande re-
ports surplus over fixed charges of
$2,09S, ,450. This is s584,O0O less than
in the same portion of the year be-
fore. but it represents the dividends
on the preferred stock accrued dur
ing the period and balance Of $780,
900.
Furthermore, the operating expens-
es of the nine months include $2S2,000
more of maintenance charges than
the similar period of 19O7-0S, though
the traffic handled was lighter.
