FATAL EXPLOSION
AT ROUND HOUSE

An explosion occurred at the
Round house last Tuesday even
ing at about $50 which resulted
in the death of Valentine Truiil-
10 and the injury of Adolfo Jar
milo, both employees of the San
ia Fe.
1t appears that Trujillo and his
helper were engaged on some
repairs on the engine tank and
were working with torch over
the man hole Of the oil tank. In
some unaccountable manner the
leak from the tank came in con
tact with the torch and the ex-
plosion followed.
Trujillo was about 29 years of
age and was considered a good
workman. The force of the ex-
plosion blew both lids of the tank
through the roof and tits evident
that Trujille was blown against
the roof as both his legs were
broken and his skull crushed.
Jarmillo, the helper was badly
bruised and barely escaped with
his life, but is now improving.
Eye witnesses to the explosion
state that the torch was left ly-
ing on the tank, while the work
men were engaged elsewhere on
the engine.
The funeral was held at the
Catholic church Thursday after
noon, under the auspices Of the
Eoyal Order of Moose of which
he was a member.
The victim was well known in
Winslow, and was a brother of
Lred Ramos, wife. Jarmillo is q
brother-in-law.

STATE COURT
The TRIBUNAL

In the United States district
court yesterday, Judge Sloan
handed down an important opin-
ion in two cases brought against
the Santa Fe railroad in Navajo
county and which the railroad
company sought to remove to the
federal court.
The question involved was
whether the plaintiff in an action
for damages could file an amend
ed complaint reducing the amount
prayed for below So, 600 SO as TO
defeat the jurisdiction of the
fededal court between the re-
ceipts of notice and time fling
Of petition and bond for rennov-
al.
The cases decided were brought
by Ollie Glaze and Thomas Votoe
against the Atchinson, Topeka
and Santa Fe railroad. On July
9th the defendant served the
plaintiff with notice of it's in
tention to remove the cases to the
federal court. On July 10th the
plaintiffs filed amended COM
plants reducing their claims to
less than $4,000, the amount re-
quired to give the federal court
jurisdiction. On July 11th the
defendant filed petitions and
bonds for removal in each case.
In q written opinion, Judge
Sloan holds that the notice of
removal provided for in Section
20 Of the judicial code did not
divest the state court of iurisdic.
ton and that the right ef reinov-
al is to be determined at the time
the petition and bond is-aled ard
not at the time thewritten notice
was given.

MEXICAN MURDERS
HIS COUNTRYMAN

Thursday morning last Francis
co Garcia killed his partner, an
unknown Mexican who answered
to the name of Whitley" in one
of the alleys back of the Metho-
dist church, by striking him in
the face with a brick.
It appears that three Mexicans
came here Wednesday night from
a grading camp near Gallup, and
proceeded to. imbibe too freely,
and having had previous Difficult
ties in camp, renewed their quar-
rel here. Garcia it seems had no
grudge to settle and only explains
his act by the statement that he
was drunk.
Garcia claims to be of Navajo
blood and offers no excuse for
his crime.
The murdered man, of whom
little is known, was about 80
years of age and was only known
to his companions as Whitley .
He had left the company of his
companions and was walking
through the alley when Garcia
caught up with him and after a
few words slapped Whitey's face
and Immediately followed it up
with a brick full in the face.
The murderer after telling his
man went over into Mexican town
with Amelia Baca, who was an
eye witness to the affair, and who
tried to prevent the crime. j. j.
Tatum, the dairyman, was also a
witness to the murder. Officer
Yount and Chief Bledsoe placed
the men under arrest and lodged
them in Jail.
A coroner's jury composed of
]. F. Mahoney, foreman, Fred K.
Ellis, G. H. Mulholland, Andy
Montana and Ed Wing was sum-
moned and rendered q verdict Of
murder.
Garcia and Baca had q hearing
last night before Justice Hansen
to late for this weeks issues,
but both men will undoubtedly
be sent to Holbrook to await the
action Of the Grand Jury.

Stock Market

Kansas City Stock Yards, Nov.
18. 1912. "A run of Sc, 600 cattle
came in last week, not including
1000 calves, which was "a, 900
more than came in during Elec-
ton week, and the same number
that arrived corresponding week
last year. The six leading mar
kets were short 5000 head from
year ago last week, a fact that
put some ginger into buyers ac-
tions, making the Is to 25 cents
advance scored on all kinds of
cattle look logical. Calves were
an exception, closing Is to SO
cents lower. The shortage in
numbers of cattle marketed at
the leading points does not fully
express the situation, as a great
many light weight and low grade
southern cattle were counted in
at Kansas City and ST. Louis.
The winter beef market is start
ing out strong, and with evidence
of considerable reserve power.
Packers have not accumulated
any beef this fall, and are start
ing in the winter beef campaign
on hand to mouth basis. Bare
shelves in pork cellars add to their
discontinue, which is intensified
by the prospect of slim winter
supplies of hogs. sheep and lambs.
The run of 1000 cattle today is
selling steady to strong. Nebras-
ka beef steers sold at $10.05 to-
day, filling a post that has been
vacant since September. Short
fed steers bring $500 to $3.50.
quarantine steers today up to
81. grass quarantines includ-
ing southern riff-raff $4.25 to
1926. Range cattle are fairly nu-
merous today, medium killing
steers at $6. 40 and S6.65 good
Colorado killers Friday at 81. Is,
heifers from Durango today at
S6.25, range stock steers $5. 25 to
Sc. Is, feeders $5.75 to S7.0O, top
veals S9.75.
Thanksgiving poultry IS begin
ming to move marketwards, and
will exert some adverse influence
on live stock markets during the
next week, though increased
appetites Of consumads at that
season renders the poultry inAu-
ence largely fictitious,
Hogs sold 5 lower today, top
81. 50, bulk $3.50 to $7.75. A big
run at Chicago today gave excuse
for a ten lower opening, but the
market improved all through the
session, the top load selling. on
the final round, typical of the
strong feeling in hog circles.
Sheep and lambs are on the
verge of a substantial uplift, ac-
cording to dealers, run 11,000
here today. Choice lambs are
worth $7.00 to $3.50, feeding
lambs lacking in quality, selling
around $500.
