attorneys occurred again today at

James Keeley, general manager, and
editor of the Chicago Tribune by

Illinois legislature.
Just before the committee recessed,
Mr.. Hanecy asked if the Tribune en-
gagged Alfred Austrian for its counsel
in the White-Lorimer matter, because

TREASURES FOR
THE MUSEUM
Complete Pajaritan Collec.
tions from Washington
and Las Vegas
GATHERED BY Or. HEWETT
Ancient Benches From Historic
Fonda at End of Santa
Fe Trail

The Museum Of American Archae-
clogy is today in receipt of large
shipment of ancient pottery from the
New Mexico Normal University at Las
Vegas. This is the first collection
made from the ruins OF Paiarito Pla-
teau by Dr.. Edgar L. Hewett, when
president of the Normal University.
The expeditions sent out by that
institution from 1899 to 1902 brought
this rich archaeological field to the
attention OF the government of the
United States and led to official in
vestigations and reports to Congress
which resulted in securing legislation
for the preservation of American an
tiquities, drew the attention of the
Archaeological Institute OF America to
Santa Fe as center for archaeologic-
al research and doubtless vitally in
fluenced the location here of the
School of American Archaeology By
"a friendly arrangement, between the
regents of the Museum and the Nor
nal University, an exchange of ma
terial is made, which gives the lat
ter equally valuable collections for
their use and places the classic Pa
Tartan collection in the Museum of
New Mexico.
The Smithsonian Institution has
generously returned the Pajaritan col
lection sent there by DR.. Hewett
years ago, and special room is now
being repaired in the Museum in which
will be shown the development of the
entire archaeological movement here
up to the present time. 1t will be
known as the Pajarito room.
Four Historic Benches.
The Museum of New Mexico today
acquired the four remaining benches
from the Office of the ancient Fonda,
which marked the end of the Santa Fe
trail. The benches are absolutely au-
thenticated by the old timers of Santa
Fe, their date being in the early fifties.
1t has not yet been ascertained wheth-
er they We're made in Santa Fe or
freighted across the Plains from st.
Louis. The management of the Mus
cum will be grateful for any informa-
tion that can be offered concerning
them. The many historic events CEN
terfng about the Old Fonda, make
these venerable objects of great in
terest and it is fortunate that they
can be preserved to the future state
in this manner.

Correction.

The Dwiggins Wire Fence Co. writes
to J. M. Coldwell, this city, their sales
man, that competitors are circulating
reports with merchants that the com
pany is selling direct to the farmer at
the same price that they sell to them,
and state plainly that this not correct,
for they do nothing of the kind They
state emphatically that they do not make
business of selling to the farmer and
never at the same price as they offer
the merchant. In few instances farm
erS have been sold who could not buy
the Dwiggins fence in their own neigh
borhood. The company states that they
even go further than some manufacture
ers do in referring farmers to the local
dealers, and in that way protect the
dealer as much as they can.
The Commercial makes this correc-
ton for the reason that this paper mad
vertantly inspired the false impression
relative to the sales of the Dwiggins fence
to the farmers direct. What The Com
mercial was trying to do was to give
Mr.. Coldwell personal notice upon his
taking up the work with the Dwiggins
Co., Mr.. Coldwell having informed us
that the company sold direct from the
factory to the local merchants. In writ
ing the notice we got the impression
confused with selling direct to the con-
sumner, and that is the way it was incor-
rectly published in the paper. We re-
greet, of course, the error, and write
this in order to do what we can towards
it.
