HONORs SENATOR MASSEY.

United States Senator w. A. Mas
sey will leave this week for Susan
Vile, California, to try a case for a
client. 1t is expected that the mat
ter will occupy at least a week and
possibly longer. In spite of the fact
that Senator Massey's campaign in
this state for reelection is on, he
promised his Client that he would
prosecute this case and as the prom
Use was made prior to his appoint
ment by Governor eddie, he feels
that 1t is his duty to attend to this
case in preference to his personal
ambitions, which is but another evil
dence of Senator Massey's loyalty to
a client.

WORKED OLD FILM FLAM GAME

Two men are under arrest at
Sparks on charge of fogery The
men named in the complaint are
A. J. Stanley, alias Ed. E. Walker,
the complaining witness being Jones
Jose.
Jose charges that Monday he met
Thomas in a hotel and that the lat
ter told him a story about a friend
who was drunk and had a check for
$500 on the Farmers and Merchants
bank of Reno. Thomas, he alleges,
~professed to be greatly worried for
fear the friend would lose the check,
and asked Jose to keep his eyes open
and If he saw the other man who
was Stanley, to take care of him.
Jose expressed a willingness to help
play the part of guardian, and a snort
time later the two men found Stan
ley, who apparently was intoxicated.
After the meeting, according to
Jose, Stanley produced the check but
refused to give it into the keeping
of Jose, claiming he needed money
and would not %relinquish the check
for less than $40. Jose offered $40,
which was accepted, and after the
transaction arrangements were made
that he meet the two men later when
Stanley felt better. That was the
last Jose saw of the men, but he dill
not get suspicious and report the
matter to the police until a few days
later. The arrest of the two men
at Sparks, who answered the descrip-
ton given by Jose followed.
They were Unidentified by f. d.
Nichols, a laborer. Nichols inform
ed the police that two men had hired
him to work in a mine, at the same
time showing him a check for $500
which they were unable to get cash
ed. He also showed confidence in
human nature and handed up $40
to the men. who promised to return
it as 500 as they could go around
a corner and cash the check. When
Nichols reported the matter to the
police he was told of the two men at
Sparks who answered the description
he gave, and when he arrived there
he identified them.

State
MANHATTAN WHITE CAP NINE.

New ore has been put in sight In
White Cap mine at Manhattan, as
rapidly as it has been taken out.
Notwithstanding the daily produc-
ton of SO tons to keep the Associat-
ed mill running three shifts. As 1t
stands at this moment there are as
many, If not more tons blocked out
as when the mill strated running,
says the Tonopah Bonanza.
The east drift is now 100 feet east
of the east shaft and still in a huge
body of good milling ore. The
distance of the ore body at this time
cannot be stated, but they are i'm
mense. In various places a width
of 20 to 80 feet has been measured.
This great body of ore helps wonder
fully toward keeping up the tonnage
in sight and making it a certainty
that the heavy output to keep pace
with the mill has not strained the
productive capacity of the mine as
its development stands today.
/ In the east drift a machine drill
is constantly at work and its head
way is marvellous. The way Ii
walks into the rock Is a caution. An
other operates on ore in the big
stope above and also has figured
as a large factor In the production
of the camp during the present sea-
son.
Superintendent Mccarthy knows
of another large shoot where work
will be directed in due time. as ore
from the upper levels is needed pri-
or to sinking farther and blocking
out the three great shoots on their
downward careers.
While the daily 55-tons appetite
of the mill must be stated. 1t would
have added a great deal TO the Wis
ible reserve had such a degree of
hunger not arisen before more de-
velopment was accomplished. How
ever, 1t is fortunate indeed for Man
haitian and the White Cap stock
holders in particular TO produce its
tonnage quickly and to add further
tonnage in sight with a like speed.

MEETS DEATH IN
UNUSAL MANNER.

Solomon Luna, millionaire bank
er and sheep grower, for sixteen
years Republican national commit
teeman for New Mexico and who
refused to accept the election to
the United States senate at the
hands of the first state legislature,
met a tragic death at Horse Springs,
Socorro county, seyenty1six miles
from Madalena, at an early hour
Monday, when he fell into a vat
containing thousands of gallons of
sheep dip after being attacked with
heart failure.
Details received show that Mr..
Luna's death either resulted from
heart failure or a stroke of apoplexy
and not from foul play as at first
suspected. Mr.. Luna had complain
ed of a weak heart for several days
and it is presumed that hewas seiz-
ed with a smothering spell during
the night and went out to get some
fresh air or a drink of waite from
a hydrant near the vat when he was
overcome and pitched headlong in
to the open tank.
The deceased was born October
Is, 1858 at Los Lunas, being a de-
scendant of the famous Lunas family
of Spain. He was a director in sew
eral banks and corporations in the
state.
Additional facts show that Mr..
Luna's death was accidental. He
did not have an enemy in the state.
1t is believed, and was on most cor
dial terms with his employees. His
financial affairs were in such ex-
cellent shape as to discount any
hint at suicide. He vas worth no
less than a million dollars and had
several large projects under way
and in contemplation. He had suf-
fered from a hardening of the veins
for several months and to those
close to him his sudden death vas
not a great surprise.

All Favor His Plan.
Beyond this brief announcement,
the governor said he had nothing fur-
ther to say. Most of the opirionB h,
had received from public men seemed
to be in favor of an extra session, he
declared.
The governor did not intend to ex-
press himself about an extra session
so soon after the election. Although
he has favored the idea OF an extra
session because the present arrange
ment would not bring the new con-
gress into session until thirteen
months after it's election, he had ex-
ipected to spend more time in ascer-
tanning public opinion. With the time
to be consumed in discussion, the gov
ernor felt that if an extra session were
not called, the benefits of tariff re-
vision would be postponed for practi-
cally two years Throughout the cam
lpaign he reiterated that he desired
| an immediate revision of the tariff
and that the democratic leaders knew
lperfectly well how to proceed about
it. The governor was impressed by
the argument that also with an early
announcement as to an extra session,
democratic leaders in congress could
ibegin to take counsel at an early date,
so that much of the preliminary de-
tails could be worked out before con-
gress convened on April Is. The gov
ernor was prompted incidentally in
making his early announcement by
the fact that many members of con-
gress We're desirous of arranging for
accommodations in Washington for
the extra session, if there were to be
lone.
Though the president-elect intends
to rest awhile in Bermuda, he really
expects to give a good deal of time
to quiet thought about the problems
that face him. He will sketch his an
nual message to the New Jersey legis-
lature and will do some extensive
reading to procure data N the tariff,
on monopolies, on banking and cur.
irency reforms and other issues.
The governor came to New York
last night to attend the dinner given in
his honor by his classmates, Princeton
10 He expected to have no political!
conferences while in the metropolis,
and seemed fully confident that he
would not be disturbed by any politi-
cal caller while resting in Bermuda.

WOULD DYNAMITE
THE COURT HOUSE
Official Who Failed of Reelection
Seeks to Destroy Them Because
of Shortage in Accounts.

Oklahoma City Nov. 14.--Nine
heavily armed guards, supplemented
by two large searchlights and special
string OF electric lights, were placed
around the courthouse here tonight, fol-
lowing the discovery of plot to dyna-
mite the building for the purpose Of
destroying the Oklahoma county ballot
boxes, which are in vault of the struc-
ture. The votes are uncounted.
Sunday night Bill" Herminan, a T.
eyed man under conviction for grand
larceny, and w. Cordonnier. a 1-legged
man, were arrested peeping through
the bars OF the courthouse vault con
tanning the ballots When searched
both had reyolvers.
The rnmor became current today that
a certain candidate for reelection
who is accused of hiring the men to
destroy the ballots Sunday night,
would make another attempt on the
ballots tonight, and armed guards and
lights were placed around the build
ing. The official suspected OF wanting
Ito destroy the ballots and continue
himself in office is said to be short in
his public accounts.

co, little, If any information can be
obtained. No one here connected
with the new road is in a position to
confirm the rumor, but the action OF
the Frisco in extending their inter.
change trackage with the new road
here, would lend color to the report
shat the Frisco had made trackage
arrangements with the NJ. o. & G.
from Baxter Springs, Kansas, to Henri
eta Okla. An arrangement of this
kind would be valuableto the Frisco,
! since 1t would shorten their route to
the south about 90 miles.
II this trackage agreement with the
Frisco becomes a realty, and it Is
highly probable that it will, 1t will
mean Il lot to Fairland, because prac-
tically all the southern traffic on the
Frisco lines would pass through this
point from Kansas City,a and all south
ern shipments coming from the St
Louis end would be routed south from
here. In time it might mean discon
ltinuance of service on the line from
Miami to Alton, as the distance ia
Alton from Miami via Fairland would
only be about three miles farther
Passenger service will be inagurat
ed on the new line Just as soon as the
laying of steel is finished. The first
lservice will likely be the motor cal
service. The company has three fine
cars at Wagner and another passed
through here over the Frisco en- route
to Wagner Tuesday.

The race for the high school cham

of these teams have been defeated this
year by high school teams while the
Tulsa team was defeated once by the

championship but the matter will be
settled finally next Friday afternoon
when the two teams meet in this city.
The vinita team is in a very disor-

was with Muskogee three weeks ago,
