Believing that fifty dollars
was exorbitant for the placing of four
men, and in view of the fact that Mr..
than fifty dollars for placing less
number than eight per month, de-
clared the agency vacant.
AS matters stand, Mr. Lieberman's
contention that the bureau insists
that the city of Houston take eight
men per month is not only a misrep-
resentation of the bureaus practice,
but is a fallacious statement of the
relations which the bureau wishes to
mainain with the Jewish community
of Houston. What the bureau con-
tended was that as long as Mr. Lieber-
man drew fifty dollars per month, he
must do what the agents in other cities
were doing. If Houston could not alb
sorb eight immigrants per month
(Which is a matter the bureau Goes
not believe Mr. Lieberman can decide
for the great Jewish community of
Houston, the members of which must
surely feel deeply for those who are
crossing the sea to escape the imposi-
tions of the most reactionary govern
ment under the SUM, then it were bet
ter that this growing city of the sout
west aided the bureau voluntarily, in
stead of having an agent who would
be paid for his efforts.
Neither the heads of the organiza-
ton at New York, nor I as manager
of the bureau, prescribe what any town
should take. We merely prescribe what
an agent should do for a certain sal
airy, if he accepts the agency This
Mr.. Lieberman has failed to do, and
his resignation was in order His
duty should have been either to re-
main with the bureau until he had
made up for the small shipments he
had handled or to refund part of his
salary Instead, Mr.. Lieberman has
seen fit to resort covertly to criticism.
There is one other correction wish
to make in Mr.. Liebermans letter be-
fore closing, since I will not seek
again the public prints to justify the

work and practice of the bureau This
correction deals with the statement
made by Mr.. Lieberman that he found
for the immigrants con-
signed to him for wages ranging be-
tween nine and fifteen dollars per
week. Mr.. Lieberman has to date only
on ten out of the nineteen
men consigned to him, and five out Of
the ten were listed as earning less
than nine dollars per week-decidedly
less, in fact. The bureaus records are
open to the public to prove this point
AS for the promised article on the
bureau and the Zionist movement
which Mr.. Lieberman is to offer the
public, 1 can only say, without knowing
it's character, that as a paid agent Mr..
Lieberman was heartily in accord with
our work as his correspondence will
show. What his future attitude will
be, that salary can no longer deter
mine. l know, however, that where
the welfare of the prosecuted Russian
brothers of the Jewish community of
Houston is concerned, Houston will not
be found wanting. If it is ascertained
that Houston can not absorb more
than four immigrants month, not
more than four will find their way
there. The bureau is humanitarian In
it's aim, and humanitarianism can not
be an imposed ideal. At the same
time, humanitarianism should not be
asked to pay exorbitant agents fees.
Very truly yours,
(Signed) Henry Berman,
Manager.

Pupils Show Regard for Miss
Bergen.

Miss Nancy Bergen, accompanied
by her mother, arrived from lndi-
ana last Monday evening on the
Golden State Limited, and although
the date of her arrival was known
only short time, students of the
high school gathered en- masse at
the Union Station to welcome her to
the city, and to show their high re-
gard for their former teacher.
Miss Bergen was advanced from
assistant to principal of the high
school, but magnanimously declined
on account of her mothers III health,
whom she has now brought to the
sunshine state to spend the winter
at the Moran ranch, west of the
city.

Everybody Sign.

The following petition has been
drafted and is being numerously
signed in Luna county:
To the Honorable Constitutional
Convention, Santa Fe, N. NJ,
Gentlemen:
A press report purporting to give
the basis Of representation of the
various counties Of New Mexico, as
arrived at by the apportionment
committee of the convention, has
been brought to the attention of our
people by the board Of directors of
the Deming Chamber of Commerce.
1t appears from this statement
that with the forty-nine members of
the lower house the ratio of repre-
sentation for each county will be
6,6Sl and each major fraction there
Of; and the ratio of representation
in the upper house will be about
1880, and each major fraction
thereof.
We note with alarm that while
Luna county has a population in ex-
cess of the major fraction, the COM
mittee contemplates joining this
county with Sierra county in one
representive and one senatorial dis
trict. While il will be entirely sat
isfactory to our people to be joined
with Sierra county in a senatorial
district, we feel that the major
fraction if used at all, will abso-
lutely entitle this county to one
member each in the lower house.
No section of New Mexico is
growing more rapidly or more SUBJ
stantially than is Luna county, and
no section is doing more to induce
the character of immigration which
will preserve New Mexico's stand
ing in the sisterhood of states; and
the failure of your honorable body
to recognize the major fraction in
Luna county as a basis of repre-
sentation in both houses of the leg
islature will work a grave wrong to
the people of this county. We feel
that Luna count is entitled to one
member in the lower house, and
Luna and Sierra counties to one
member in the upper house.

A very important association was
formed at III Paso. Friday, which is
known as the Southwestern Railway
Surgeons Medical Association, en-
bracing New Mexico. Texas, Arizona

portant paper on the Relation Of
Railway Surgeons 10 the Compan-
Ies," which was listened 10 with

Important Event for Luna
County, Nov. 8.

AS previously announced, DR.. j.
N. Mccormack of Kentucky, Secre-
tary Of the State Board of Health
and Chairman of the Committee on
Organization of the American Medi-
cal Association, will deliver a public
address at Clark's Opera House on
Nov. s, under the auspices of the
Luna County Medical Society.
DR.. McCormack's lecture is on
Things about Doctors Which Doc
tors and Others Ought to Know"
and is for the public rather than the
medical profession.
DR.. Mccormick is a gifted Ken
lucky orator. He has given his lee
ture throughout the United States
and many foreign countries, and is
justly termed The Modern Crusad-
err but his crusade is not to des-
troy thousands of lives for a princi.
pie or mythical object, but to teach
people how to live better lives and
to save thousands of lives by the
knowledge which he will impart.
Every man, woman and child in the
community in which he lectures will
be benefited; but to receive the full
benefit, come out and hear at first
hand what he has to say. The lee
rure is free to the public, but DR..
McCormack's crusade is costing the
physicians Of the United States
thousands of dollars each year,
which they spend purely in the
interest of the public health.
Don't forget the date, next Tues
day, Nov. Sth, at Z p. M. opera
house.

UNDER THIRD DEGREE
GRILL WOMAN CONFESSES.
First Denied She Had 5000 Lost
,JeWelry Bag.

An all-night ordeal of the third de-
gree proved too much for Mrs. Mar
garet iKechner, of 1879 Summit street,
charged with having in her possess
sion the 5000 bag of jewelry lost by
Mrs. Elias Berla, of IA Howard street,
and today she confessed to having the
lost articles.
Detective Sergeants CORDIALLY and
Pagan arrested Mrs. Kiechner last
night after hearing the story of 10
year-old Harry Kiechner, her brother
in-law, to the effect that he had found
the lost jewelry and had given it To
her. She professed her innocence when
arrested.
After securing the bag of jewelry and
$27.S3 in cash, which was in the bag,
Mrs. Kiechner began to entertain
friends. The four diamond rings and
one wedding ring We're taken to the
home of her brother, Hugh Duffy, at IA
Rutgers street, and buried under the
porch. With the money she purchased
new clothes and treated her friends.
Sergeant Pagan recovered the jewelry
TODAY and stated that Mrs. Berla, who
lost the bag while in front of her home,
refused to make any complaint against
the woman. Under the circumstance
Mrs. Kiechner will undoubtedly be re-
leased today.

favor on his advances, an admirer of
Miss Mary Miller, a pretty 1~S-year-old

her over the right y with a razor, In
ficting an ugly wound, which required
nine stitches to close. The assault was
committed on Hamilton avenue, be-
tween Broad street and the canal
bridge, and in the shadow of a large
doorway leading to the Trenton Iron
Company's plant.
Mary felt the blood squirting down
her face, and. becoming frightened,
dashed off toward Broad street, with
her mother and friend in pursuit. Hear
ing her cries John Gallery, of Second
street. stopped her at the corner OF
Hamilton avenue and Conover's alley.
Assisted by a number of other young
men, Gallery helped her into Brandrs
saloon, on the corner of Broad street
and Hamilton venue, and 'phoned for
the police ambulance.
When the machine arrived Mary re-
fused to be taken to a hospital and
was removed to her home. DR.. Mitchell
was called and sewed up the wound,
officers Moody, Kucker and Hoffman
were detailed to the scene of h cut
ting, but were unable to find trace
of the assailant.

EAST ORANGE COUPLE
ARE WE'D AT MIDNIGHT.
Wake Up Assistant City Clerk
for License. and Knot Is Tied.

Believing a midnight marriage would
prove quite a novelty, Mrs. Estelle
Murray, of East Orange. and Francis
S. Barnes, a coffee broker, of 1888 Park
avenue, East Orange, secured an auto
mobile last night and with William
Christian, of County Clerk John b.
Woolston's office, set out for the home
of Miss Alice Webster, assistant city
clerk, of 81 Norman street.
Miss Webster was awakened from
bed and at first did not var to go
over to the City Hall to give the couple
a license, as she thought an elopement
had been planned, but vas convinced
otherwise and was taken to the munic-
ipal building in the auto. After the IL
cense had been granted Thomas john
son, a justice of the peace, living at
1893 Halsted street, was called on the
phone and agreed to perform the mar
riage. Miss Webster was taken home
again and the marriage tool place in
Mr.. Johnson's parlor at l o'clock this
morning.
Mrs. Barnes is a widow and % years
old. The bridegroom is 81. Mr.. and
Mrs. Robert F. Moment, of 1888 Park
avenue, were the witnesses. Mrs. Mo-
ment is a sister of the bridegroom, AM
said today that the couple had been
contemplating marriage for the past
four months. but last night suddenly
decided on a midnight marriage. The
bride is from Chicago and the BRIDE
groom originally of Montclair.
Following the ceremony the party
drove to Mr.. Barnes's home. and it
was stated today that they would
probably go on a wedding trip by au-
tomobile. Mrs. Barnes was married
to Edward G. Murray, of Chicago, by
a justice of the peace. He died in 1908.
