CURRY MAKES
GOOD SHOWING
Various Candidates Are
Struggling Hard for
Nominations

The relative standing of candidates
among the people is pretty clearly
shown by the petitions being filed with
endorsements of nomination. Although
only per cent of the states total
vote at the last presidential election is
required, many candidates are getting
signatures far beyond the necessary
amount. OF the candidates for the re-
publican nomination for governor,
Charles F. Curry leads the list, with
petitions filed from twentysi six coun-
ties, and a total number of 12,171
signatures, San Francisco furnishing
394O, and Los Angeles county 3049.
Alden Anderson ranks second, with
twenty-five counties polled and a total
of 3517 certified signatures. Hiram
Johnson the Lincoln Roosevelt nomi-
nee, has twenty counties canvassed
and 5589 votes on his petition, 1856 of
whom are from San Francisco. Nat
Ellery has so far filed papers from
eleven counties, with total of 1899
names. Philip A. Stanton has hardly
made start, only two petitions having
been received at the capitol, one each
from San Francisco and MADEIRA coun-
ties, with 458 signatures.

The Traction Engine

The hauling of mining timbers by
the traction engine method has been
suspended, whether permanently or
not we are not prepared to say. The
machine made two trips to the mines
ar ound Sutter Creek. 1t has not been
able to pull as much as an eight mule
team. 1t could only manage one truck,
which would not amount to more than
one good load for a four horse team.
1t is claimed that the engine is net
powerful enough for the work, and
that material changes must be made
before it can be voted success. The
machine is laid up on Sutter hill.

Civil Engineer John L. Zimmerman
Addressed the Commercial Club
at Albuquerque.

John l.. Zimmerman formerly OF
Santa Fe, who plated Santa Fe coun-
ty, made the principal address before
the meeting of the Albuquerque Com
mercial Club held last night which
took up the matter of having Berna-
lilo county surveyed and plated. Mr.
Zimmerman's address told of the con-
ditions in Santa Fe county at the
time the plating was done and point
ed out as one chief benefit of such
work that it prevents many land own
ers from escaping taxation, facilitates
land transfers and assures a correct
classification of the various kinds of
land. Mr. Zimmermans talk was list
ened to with close attention and con-
tanned much information as to meth
DDS and results that will be invaluable
to the club here in the work of sur
veying Bernalillo county. A commit
tee was appointed to draft work.

TURNS FROM POLITICS
TO BASEBALL.
Hon. Solomon Luna is Backing First
Claim Team to Represent Los
Lunas at albuquerque.

The baseball situation during fair
week at Albuquerque, promises TO be
quite strenuous, especially so since
the entry of the Cheyenne Indians OF
Cheyenne, Wyo., who entered by teie-
graph yesterday and will represent
Los Lunas in the tournament. AL
though it has not been officially an
nounced, it is understood that Solo
mon Luna is the principal backer OF
the proposition to have the Indians
represent Los Lunas. The entry OF
the Los Lunas Indians as they will be
known from now on, will in all prob
ability result in some first class base
ball during the tournament and the
indications are that the fight for the
ST. 900 first prize will be hard one.
Trinidad, Santa Fe, Albuquerque and
Roswell are the other teams which
will be in the race All of them are
coming up strong. Trinidad and the
Indians are very evenly matched
Thus far during the season they have
played each other thirteen games, the
Indians taking seven. The Indians
make up one of the strongest teams
in the west and have played large
number of games in Cheyenne, Den
yer, Trinidad, Ration and other places
during the season. The club is COM
posed of fourteen men.

70 ARE SEVERELY WOUNDED
Ugly Phase of Coal Strike That
Disturbs Capital of
Germany

Berlin, Sept. 29.-It was officially
reported today that 73 persons were
severely wounded in the conflict be-
tween the coal strikers and the police
in the Moabit district last night, when
the police received orders to NOV
down the rioters without mercy. Quiet
prevails today.
The police charged furiously and
beat down the workmen on every side.
In this way they rode through En-
dener Strasse and Turn Strasse,
which were blocked with excited
crowds. Traces of the police charges
were left in the dozens of persons ly-
ing severely wounded on both side
walks.
A coal wagon driven by strike
breakers under police protection was
attached and the police replied with
volleys from their revolvers.
Several thousands marched in pro.

at full gallop among the paraders,
cutting down and galloping over them.
1t is estimated that at this place
alone, more than a hundred were Sc
verely wounded.
The hospitals are crowded with
those who were injured here, but most
of the victims who dropped before the
blows of the police went to their
homes or to other places of refuge in
order to prevent arrest and certain
punishment.
The ponce were greeted everywhere
with shouts of "Bloodhounds." This
only served to incense them and they
charged repeatedly, Lively skirmishes
continued far into the night, but at
midnight comparative quiet prevailed
Six battalions of infantry were held
throughout the night under arms in
readiness for sortie.

Proposed Action Against
Wild Caters

Los Angeles, Sept. 29.-The prob
lem created by the state versus the
national government to control water
power sites which is exciting the Ma
tional Irrigation Congress at Pueblo,
Colorado, came before the resolutions
committee of the American Mining
Congress today in a resolution de-
manding that state control be recog-
nized, and that laws be passed forth
with which will enable the leasing OF
the sites and the development of
power. The revenues from such leas-
es are to be devoted to the protec-
ton of water sheds from forest fires.
ID. L. Foster of Colorado presented
the resolution 1t calls for sixty year
leases of water power sites and draws
the power essential to further devel-
opment of mining interests. The res
olution is likely to cause an interest
ing position either in committee or on
the floor of the congress, as state con-

MURPHY HAS
GRIP ON PARTY
VIII of One Boss Sways De-
mocratic Convention
in New York
TAMMANY HAS ITS OWN WAY
1t May Permit Upstate Crowd
to Name Candidate for
Governor

s. Rochester, N. Y, Sept. 29.-It was
anybody's race for the gubernatorial
nomination when the Democratic
state convention met this morning.
Charles F. Murphy, of Tammany Hall,
was in a position to dominate the con-
vention as the result of a coalition of
delegates from New York, Kings and
Queens and Erie counties, but Mr.,
Murphy's repeated reclaration that
the upper state delegates would name
the ticket leaves things in the air.
Friends of Edward M. Shepard are
trying hard to convince Murphy that
Chepard was the choice of the upper
state delegates. Efforts to induce
Congress James Haverness to with
draw by offeringfi him the alternative
of a seat on the supreme court bench
failed and Haveness' managers claim
$50 delegates pledged to him. The
temporary organization, an address by
Alton B. Parker, the temporary chair
man, and the appointment of commit
tees are expected to take the great
er part of today's session.
Mr.. Shepard is said to have the
support of Alton B. Parker, William F
Sheehan, Thomas F. Osborne and that
branch of the New York Democratic
party represented by such men as
Justice Morgan and John OBrien
Nevertheless, there was a conscious
trens against Shepard during the
morning. Pie elimination of Shepard
would leave no preeminent candidate

NEW HOTEL IS
" MONTEzUMA"
1t Has 81 Comfort Compel
ing Rooms, Finely
Furnished
STEAM AND ELECTRICITYTHERE
Fine Dining Parlor Opened to
Seat Fifty--Skilled Chef
in Charge.
1t is the Montezuma.

That is the name of the new hotel
which opens its doors Saturday to
the public, especially the commercial
travelling public. All that science, art
and money judicously used to give
comfort will be found in the Montezu-
ma, old in name, but thoroughly in the
twentieth century as far as modern
equipment is concerned. In every
room one finds electric light at night
and sunshine during the day; an indi-
vidual telephone for use night or day,
and steam heat to keep one warm in
the winter months, and fine big win
dows to let in the summer breezes to
fan one when the mercury climbs
above so. Some of the rooms have
private baths attached, and some of
the rooms are en- suite.
All of the rooms look sweet and
cofnt.- Turnlture mostly ot-ThsS
Mission style, beautiful bedsteads, car
pets free from dust, and snow white
bed linen, these alone would make
the rooms attractive to the man who
has spent the day battling with dust
and cinders on the train.
Coming down stairs one finds neat
Office, with polished floor and spac-
ous desks to write letters and near
by is parlor with piano for the
musically inclined. 1t is so placed
that those not musically inclined will
be free from annoyance.
The Dining Room.
The inner man has also been looked
after-at the Montezuma There is
brightly lighted by day and brilliant
ly Illuminated by night dining room
to seat four dozen people at neat lit
tie tables "a quatre". This is an at
tractive room and if there is anything
in the theory that one should be in
pleasant surroundings while dining to
produce the proper digestive secre-
tions, there will be no occasion for
dyspepsia here.
Moreover, the managers of the
hotel, Mr.. and Mrs. Doran, who have
had wide experience in running hotels
in Clovis, have procured chef who is
said to be culinary artist.
The chef is we'll provided with as
sistants and also assistance in the way
of big refrigerators, large kitchen and
range to match, pantries and SO forth.
Table board may be had by nom
transients, though the hotel will be
devoted mostly to the comfort OF
travelling men.
The Montezuma is fall creation"
and one that ought to be welcomed in
