Washington, D. c.. Dec. This
afternoon it is denied unofficially and
uninformally, that President Taft has
expressed himself dissatisfied with
the New Mexico political situation and
advised a change of party manage
ment lest the Republicans losse the
state at the presidential election next
year. Last night the Associated
Press sent out a dispatch to that ef-

DELHI SCENE

The Indian Maharajahs Pay
Homage to Emperor and
Empress

(By Special Leased Wire to New Mexican,
Delhi, India, Dec. THE roar of
an imperial salute Of 101 gins well
coined the King Emperor and Queen
Empress on their arrival here today
from Bombay. The railroad station
in the Seligarh Bastion of the fort had
been the mecca since dawn for every
body in the city and the coronation
camp.
The route to the camp was lined al
ternately by British and Indian regi-
ments under the command OF Lieuten-
ant General Sir J. Willcocks and
General Sir r. G.. Barrow. In proyid'
ing guards of honor and escorts ma
tive troops were also given an equal
share with British soldiers.
The King-Emperor and Queen-Emp-
ress were received on the elaborately
decorated platform by the viceroy and
vicerein, the governors and heads OF
provinces, the commander in chief
and a number of high military and
civil officials. Sixteen British gener-
ais on charges led the procession.
Next followed the native escort OF
the viceroy, in scarlet and gold pre-
ceding the imperial cadet corps, COM
posed entirely of princes and their
sons. Their majesties and the vice
roys' suits succeeded.
A Scene Of spendor.
AS their majesties approached, the
command to present arms was passed
along the line of troops, European
spectators took off their hats and the
natives bent deep towards the crowd.
The King Emperor, the Queen-Emp-
ress and the Viceroy bowed right and
left, in acknowledgment. The body
guard of Indian princes who followed
Immediately outshone in splendor all
that had passed. In strict order OF
precedence came $50 maharajahs
rajahs, nawabs and other chieftains.
The column was closed by band OF
savage looking Afghans and Pathean
chiefs mounted on wild ponies and
detachment of native and British
troops.
Profound Impression.
Their majesties entered the city
through the Kings gate, now opened
for the first time since 1857 when the
King of Delhi went to public worship.
All along the route the impression
seemed to be profound and the recep-
ton was cordial one.
On arrival at the camp, troops de-
filed past the imperial carriage, re-
ceptions followed and the King-Ener-
error was presented with brief ad
dress of welcome to which he replied
in a few words.
Their majesties and the vice-regal
party then repaired to their camp.
Like De Vargas Pageant.
Crowds of picturesque humanity,
from the rajah in his silks, to the
half-naked Wallah, gathered to well
come their emperor and they formed
a perfect picture. Mingling with them
were bejeweled Indian princes, army
and administrative officers, native and
British soldiers and large number Of
foreign tourists.

Vast Amount of Evidence Ga.
thered During Mcnamara
Trial.

tBy Special Leased Wire to New Mexican)
Los Angeles, Calf, Dec. THE
) federal grand jury of the United
States district court for southern Cali
fornia convened here today to take
up evidence to be presented for the
) purpose of showing that gigantic
conspiracy exists throughout the Uni
ted States by which dynamiting dam
age running into millions of dollars
has been transported unlawfully from
one state to another and perhaps that
improper use has been made of the
mails. While the government can.
not indict or try, it is said, for indi-
vidual dynamitings, the men who
brought them about are liable under
the conspiracy charge and for the
transportation Of the explosive un.
lawfully.
Similar Investigation at Indian
apolis.
A similar investigation is being
conducted in Indianapolis. The rea-
son for another grand jury is said to
be vast amount of evidence accumu-
lated on the coast by detective, work
ing under District Attorney John D.
Fredericks of Los Angeles county, for
the purpose of convicting John J.
and James B. McNanara for murder
in connection wit, the blowing up of
the Los Angeles Times building on
} October 1, 1910.
Further reasons are that both OF
these men are here awaiting trans,
portation to San Quentin penitentiary
to begin serving sentences of fifteen
years and life imprisonment, re-
sEectively; also that Ortie E. McMan-
igel, who has confessed to many dy-
namitipgs and who was to have been
one of the states principal witnesses
. in the case against the Mcnamara
brothers. He has not been sentenced.
Fredericks said today that Nc
Manigel would be required for many
cases coming in California and that it
would be inadvisable at this time to
let him be taken elsewhere.
Witnesses Available.
, This statement was considered to
develop another reason for holding
the grand jury investigation ont here
namely that many witnesses who
appeared before the grand jury in the
Mcnamara hearings live in the state
and can be reached over night.
The state has been desirors for
some time also of tracing the move
ments of James B. Mcnamara, after
he came west from indianapolis to
San Francisco and began travelling
. up and down the coast Witnesses
probably will be summoned to tell
: what they may know of where McNa.
mara went and what he did and, final.
ly, who sent him.

Washington, D. c., Dec. THE
House special committee investigat-
ing the so-called sugar trust, today
heard testimony designed to show
that in some states sugar beet cul-
ture is a "hothouse" industry. James
Bodkin, of Meade, Colorado, repre-
senting farmers Of that sugar beet
territory, told of the cheap foreign
labor employed there.
The farmers who are attending the
committee session contended that
they are not given reasonable prof
it on their sugar beet crop and they
want an increase in the price per ton
delivered to the sugar mills.
Mr.. Bodkin told the committee that
the contracts between beet farmers
and sugar refiners were drawn to
compel the farmer to violate them
aa soon as the best cr3p was plant
ed. One stipulation, he said, was
that the farmer must protect his
beets from sunlight and frost"
Keep 6eets Under Bed.
''The only way to live up to that
would be to keep the beets under my
bed" said Mr.. Bodkin. The witness
under cross examination by Repre-.
sentative Fordney, declared the far
mers had difficulty III getting sci
entific test of their sugar beets ex-
cept by customers of the Great West
ern Sugar Company. He said the COM
pany had such influence with the Col
orado Agricultural Department that
the farmers could not ge. a private
test.
An Independent chemist in Den.
yer would not make the test, he said,
and Colorado University at Boulder
refused because the University pre3i.
dent feared the Great Western Sugar
Company would hold down the ap-
preparations.
GIared at Each Other.
Mr.. Fordney said the witness was
evidently an enemy Of the Great Nes.
tern Sugar Company. Bodkin retort-
ed that the representative seemed 10
be friend of the sugar refiner and
an enemy of the farmer.
Mr.. Fordney protested that he was
a friend of the farmer
The two glared at each other while
! Mr.. Fordney demanded to know how
the farmers had been suInm"ncd to
appear.

Concerning Courthouse Insurance Local Agent Given Hearing by the Executive Committee Eighty Per Cent Clause Considered Preferable to Flat Rate.

At the request of the local fire insur- znce agents there was a special meet ing of the executive committee on Fri day evening in the City hall for the purpose of giving them a hearing on the court house insurance. There was an excellent report made to the com mittee by Alderman Beckley, who had been detailed to secure the facts in the matter. and it was shown that there is now a total insurance on the building of $40, ,0o0 by the city. The building $ jointly owned by the city. town and county, and valued at from s2I5.000 to
 The city's insurance is divided as fol- lows s1co, 900 on the main building, SS1-OO0 being on building and S20,Oe0 on contents; and s40,0O0 on the annex, being s74, ,o00 on the building and S16,- 900 on the contents It is now insured at the fiat rate of S1-43 d thousand. and the plan under consideration os to insure it under the 50 per cent clause. which all agreed is better It was a great lesson in insurance for those not familiar with the applications of the insuranc rules
 Tn addition to members of the coun- ell there were a dozen or more of the local agents in attendance, and nearly all Of them spoke in relation to the proposed change It had been brought about through the desire of some of the younger insurance agents, who are taxpayers. to get some of the insur- ance on the building, and some of the insurance expires December '.
 How 1t Works.
 IL was explained by Nicholas Tar rant that if the building Is completely destroyed. the total loss is paid if the property is worth the amount of in surance- If the property is insured up 10 so per cent. of the sound value, all the loss is paid. whether large or small But if it is not insured to the full so Der cent, the insured becomes a co-lnsurer. and gets that portion of the loss which the amount of his in su-ance bears to the 30 per cent, the property owner in that case being obliged to stand part of the loss as a co-inEurer-
 Appreciated Committees Action.
 James L. Case expressed his appre ciation of the action of the committee in allowing the agents to coms before it, and declared it the fairest thing in the city government for a long time He said there were some young agents In the business who didn't get into it in time to share in the insuring of the
Norwich bulletin., 1911-12-02

building, and they thought they had the right to ask for some of it, and he said he was pleased to know that it was not likely to go outside. The sound value should be gotten, he said, by having builders place sound val ue on It. and referred to experiences and information gained regarding that.
 The question of insuring for a five year term was brought up, but it was considered not as advantageous as the three year rate. Mr. Tarrant, MT. Whitney and MT. Royce thought the three year rate more advantageous.
 It was explained that sound value meant the cost of repla cling the build ing, less the depreciation The agents were unanimous in recommending the so per cent. clause instead of the fiat rate and H. F. Palmer spoke in favor of that.
 In such insurance the records in the vault would not be insured, except as to the value of blank books. Money could not replace them, so they are not included Maps might be inc1ud- ed in the insured articles. stated MT. Royce.
 Will Submit Form.
 It was decided by the committee to ask the rate committee of the local board of underwriters to furnish form which they considered sufficient for the policy and submit it in few days.
 Alderman Beckley reported that there are 21 agents here, but seven of them have no insurance on the build ing The building is rated at the very lowest except the f1reproof buildings.
 Should Have s240,ooo on Building.
 It was thought by MT. Tarrant that insurance of s24e,000 ought to be car- ried on the building. and others favor ed writing it in full.
 Royal Holmes explained that the change could be made at once for a three years term, and cancel one-third at the end of the first year and the second third at the end af the second year, and thus reinsure for one third of the entire amount each year, for the three year periods.
 Others who spoke on the matter were Isaac Jones, Eben Learned and members of the committee
 The committee reached no decision in regard to the matter at it's subse- quent session, but will leave it open to be decided next week, possibly after the council meeting, by which time the rate committee will have the form be- fore thIn.
