rushed out of the house to take
part in the proposed fight of the
"toro." " In front of the house of
the mayor domo is a deep arroyo,
and this was bridged for the oc'

on the improvised bridge, Ada
macio Valencia was thrown to the
bottom of the arroyo, breaking a
couple of his ribs and otherwise
bruising him up. Two of the
other men in the play, Jose

Pleas of guilty suddenly announ-
ced in the circuit court here TO-
day by three more of the most
prominent men accused in con-
nection with the tarring of Miss

Hoffman, like the night
watchman, was the possessor
of a six shooter, and Tuesday
afternoon, it is said, hourished
the gun in an unlawful man
ner. For this he was seized
and hurried before the cadi,
where he was held in the sum
of $3.50 for hearing yesterday
at 3 o'clock. Three o'clock
came but no Hoffman and his
bond was forfeited to the state
Officers were instructed to be
on the lookout for the delin-
quent and the railway police
were asked, as IL special favor,
to keep watch for him in the
Santa Fe yards. This was
where Watchman Smith got
into the case.
Patrolling his beat near the
coal chutes and mindful of his
Instructions the watchman
was on the lookout for the
switchman. Suddenly he es-
pied his man advancingt
the night. Without

Hoffman to halt. Hoffman

DEMOCRATS
ELECTED
TODAy
One Day they are Counted out
and the next are Coun-
ted in

Santa Fe N. M, Nov. Is
That the democrats have elected
the entire supreme court, two
members of the corporation, one
member of congress and the
balance of their state ticket, with
the exception of attorney gener-
al, was the statement given out
here this afternoon from the
headquarters of the democratic
state central committee.
The committee bases it's claims
on complete returns just received
from all election precincts which
show errors in the republican
figures. The republicans claimed
to have carried Rio Arriba coun-
ty by an average majority of 300.
Returns from that county re-
ceived today show that the ma
jority of the republicans there is
just $50, or $50 less than that
claimed by the republicans.
From Valencia county the off
cial report shows a majority of
1,451 for the republicans, In
this county the republican com
mittee claimed a majority of
1851. Several other errors of
similar character in the republi-
can estimate, completely wipe
out the majorities which the
managers Of that party claimed
for its candidates for judges of
the supreme court, state auditor,
land commissioner and corpora
tion commissioner. The average 9
majority of the democratic su-
preme court justices is placed at
381.
1t is conceded at democratic
headquarters that there is g |
strong possibility that Paz Val
verda for congress and Seferino
Martinez for corporation com,
missioner, are defeated, while
little hope is held out for the
election of w, R. McGill for at
torney general.
While the statement sent out
by the democrats today is based .
on returns received from every
precinct in New Mexico and |
there is still a strong possibility
that the official canvass of the
vote may show some change in
the figures, it is not believed pos
sible that the changes will be
sufficient to affect the election of
any Of the candidates save Nc
Gill, MARTINEZ and Valver1e.

TRAIN ROBBER IS FREE
''OLD BILL" MINOR, NOTORIOUS
CRIMINAL, BREAKS OUT OF
THE STATE FARM.
TWO MURDERERS WITH HIM

The Officers Believed ''OId BiIl'' Was
"An In" Had Operated From
Coast to Coast, and Was Only Re-
Gently Sentenced to Twenty Years
in Georgia Penitentiary.
MILLEDGEVILLE, Cattle es-
cape of George Anderson, alias Bill
Minor, from the state prison farm
at Milledgeville, along with two 9TH
er criminals, Tom Moore, life prison
er from Burke, and John Watts of
Pulaski, serving a fifteen year SEN
tence for manslaughter, has got the
prison officials up in the air today.
They had practically accepted old
Bill Minors statement that he was
down and out, and a short time ago
prison officials wrote to the peniten-
tiary department in Canada, from
where he escaped, telling them that
"Old Bill had probably turned his
last trick and asking if they would
not send to him the $3.50 which they
had taken away from him there.
The money was not forthcoming.
Old Bill, it seems, under pretense of
being an invalid, which with his 7OI
years he could very we'll sham, got
himself transferred to the state
farm. He was "all in" was "Old
Bill" At any rate, that appears to
be what he made the Georgia prison
officials believe, and now he is "all
out"
The two other escapes may be
caught, but old Bill will probably
make clean getaway, as he has the
record for shrewdness. Escaping
from the Canadian penitentiary af-
ter a long career in crime, he came
to Georgia and with two others held
up and robbed Southern railway
express car near Gainesville. He
was caught in the mountains and
given twenty years. He had served
about one year of his time when he
took French leave of the state farm.
There is an offer of $50 for his ar
rest.

"OId Bill" Was Foxy.

Atlanta.-Bill Minor, famed as a
train fobber and hold-up man from
Canada to Florida and from Califor-
MIA to the Atlantic seaboard, put one
over on the Georgia prison commits
sion.
Minor, sent up March Is, 1911
for twenty years for participation
in neat little hold-up of the South
ems fast train northbound from
Gainesville, is 70 years of age.
When the judge passed sentence
upon him Bill, in a matter of fact
way, stated that he wouldn't Iinger
long in the Georgia penItentiary. AS
he had broken away from some of
the best pens in Canada as we'll as
in this country Bills remark caused
Georgia officials to take extraordi-
nary precautions in preventing hiln
making good his threat.
Minor served for some months in
the Newton county changing, but
he was guarded so closely no on.
portunity was afforded for a get
away Then Bill got foxy. He play
ed the old and broken-down man
He was off feed, seemed to have no
spirit, and opined that the "old man
was all in
He appealed to Chairman Dawson
to let him go to the prison farm to
spend his declining days, as the road
work was too heavy for so old a
man. Chairman Dawson is sympa-
thetic man, and he thought old Bill
was giving it to him straight.
But the old fox was playing pos
sum. He behaved himself at the
farm, and seemed to be broken
and dispirited man Probably extra
precautions were relaxed.
Then Bill made good his threat.
Shortly after midnight Minor and
two other men overpowered the
guard and got away.
Minor is one of the most pictur-
esque criminals in the country. For
many years he was a terror in the
west, where he participated in many
stage and train hold-ups. He has
even operated extensively in Canada,
and is wanted there now. He es-
capped from a Canadian prison, leav-
ing a gold watch and $3.50 in money
behind. The Canadian people said
BIZ would have to call in person for
them, and perhaps he has gone to
claim the watch and money now.

NO MORE CHICKEN FOR ARMY
Will Save $25O,OO a
Year on Soldiers Feed. Turkey
Thanksgiving and Christmas.

WASHINGTON, D. U.-Hne eIimi-
nation of chicken from the army
menu, the limitation of turkey to
Christmas and Thanksgiving, the
substitution of so-caIIed "field bread"
for hard tack and adjustment of the
field ration sum up the important
changes in the army ration for the
American soldier made during the
past year, according to the report of
Commissary General Henry G..
Sharpe. The elimination Of chicken
has resulted in yearly saving of
$250,000 to the government.
1t cost the United States 1914
cents day more to feed the Ameri-
can soldier in Alaska than it did
those stationed in the United States.
This is declared to be due principal
ly to the cost of beef and it's trans
portation to the isolated posts in the
territory. The daily average cost of
the ratione issued during the year
in the United States alone was 22.75
cents; Alaska, $3.50 cents; Hawaiia,
24.10 cents; Porto Rico, 28.7 cents;
aboard transports, 22.52 cents, SOL
diers in the Philippines, 1855 cents,
and the native soldiers in the Phil
ippines, 1887 cents.
Even the Philippine Islands show
greater average cost per diem per
man. The report shows the average
cost per year per man in the United
States to be $105.96 and in the Phil
ippines $114.21, or an average cost
per diem in the former of 1903
cents and in the latter of 1929
cents.

Be One of Most Bitterly Fought il
History of Criminal Prosecution
The Crime Alleged.
LOS ANGELES.-The curtain ha
risen before Judge BordweIl in the
superior criminal court here on The
first act in the trial of John J. Nc.
Namara, secretary treasurer of the
International Association of Bridge
and Structural Iron Workers, and
his brother, James Bryce Mcnamara
who are charged with murder on
numerous counts in connection with
the blowing up by dynamite of the
Los Angeles Times building on OctO-
Der /, 1910. The trial promises to
be not only one of the longest on
record, but one of the most bitterly
fought in the history of criminal
prosecution in the United States 1t
is probable that months will be con-
sumed in securing a jury and that
many months will have elapsed be-
fore the case is in shape to be SUNNI
ed up. The number of witnesses for
the state will probably reach 400,
while the defense is expected to call
half as many.
A splendid array of legal talent is
engaged in the interest of the de-
tense. Clarence Darrow, the brilliant
Chicago attorney heads the list and
is assisted by LeCompte Davis, one
of the most brilliant criminal law
yers in southern California; Joseph
Scott, former president of the cham
Der of commerce, and Job Hartman,
who is the present Socialist candi-
date for mayor. Besides these law
yers there is an able corps of de-
tectives under the direction of At
torney John L. Harrington of Chi
cago.
Burden of Proof on State.
The prosecution will be conducted
by District Attorney Fredericks, as
sisted by Attorney Ford. Attorney E.
Vermilyea has been retained by the
widows of the men who lost their
lives in the Times disaster to aid in
the prosecution, and his fee has been
raised entirely by the women. He
has had wide experience as a prose-
cutor and was formerly district at
