FIFTH NEWSPAPER MAN TO Be PROBED
MARTINEZ LOOMS up WITH MORE

In today's history of "Oil in New
Mexico" it will be seen tnat nIth
newspaper man joins the ranks OF OIL
strikers whose business is to be prob
ed by the committee headed by the
"Apostle of Political Purity MAJOR
w. H. H. Llewellyn.
This newspaperman is none other
than the eloquent speaker ana nueh'
writer, Hon. Nestor Montoya, presl-
dent of the New Mexico Press asso-
ciation and editor OF La Bahdera
Americana, with residence at Alou-
oueroue. He succeeded T. S. Hub
bell as a deputy oil inspector.
A study of the official report sent
to the governor by Oil Inspector Mala-
ouias Martinez reveals these totals.

Total amount of fees paid $l6'S3e'fs'

1910.)
The salary and fees received oy
the oil inspector, Malaquias Martinez,
are given at $5,9S9.57 (as compared
with $500 for the previous year,
Tbus it will be seen that the office OF
Territorial Oil Inspector was better
having lob in 1911 than that OF gov

The entire force of deputies under
MIR. Martinez drew in salaries the TO-
tai sum Of s7,953.21 during 19ll,> ac-

WHO GOT THE MONEY?
Mr.. Dunno stated today that ne dlt

to see receipts or checks signed D.

TRAVELLING EXPENSES.
The fact that only $500 was expeno
ed on travelling expenses during tn
entire year of 1911 leads to tn
query: did the deputies hire thel
own rigs to reach the scene of the OF
inspection?" Was less than dollar
day sufficient to pay for comfortabl
locomotion for the ENTIRE force
deputies through this vast empire
New Mexico?

AGED LAWYER Dies In Court.

Guy e. Farquhar, seventy-two years
old, known for years as the nestor OF
the Schuylkill county bar, dropped
dead in the court room in Pottsville,
Pa, while acting as counsel for
the prosecution in case in which
New Philadelphia school directors are
charged with misdemeanor.
Mr. Farquhar's colleagues noticed
by the pallor OF his face that he was
getting sick, but before physicians
could be summoned he was dead.
The three judges, who were busy
holding sessions of criminal court, at
once adjourned and a meeting of the
Schuyll1ill county bar will be held to
pay tribute of remembrance to the
dead lawyer.
Mr.. Farquahar was an Intimate as.

MALE SUFFRACIST
INJURED AT RACE
king and Queen See Act That
Will Cost His Life.
HIS OWN WEAPON WOUNDS
Waving Revolver and Flag, He SeIzes
Horse and Is Shot Through Head as
He Is FeIIed by Another Racer.

A desperate male suffraglst, in the
presence of King George, Queen Mary
and a brilliant concourse OF raCe5JeIs,
dashed upon the race track at Asc@t
Heath, England, during the running OF
the $17,500 gold cup event, and IN 4
spectacular effort to break up the
contest received injuries that undoubt-
eddy will prove fatal.
Cards found in the clothing of the
man bear the name and address "Hew-
lit, Trinity College, Cambridge"
Hewitt is on the rolls of Cambridge
university as an undergraduate.
Pulling a revolver and a flag bear
ing the suffragette colors from his
pocket, the man ran directly into the
path of August Belmonts American
horse, Tracery, just as 1t was entering
the stretch. He was knocked down,
and as he fell his revolver went of,
the bullet lodging in his head.
The inja"ed man was rushed tn
hospital, where an operation va pr
formed However, he continued t, six
rapidly. The examination showed t1lt
the man had shot himself in the ae;:d.
The wound in the skull had first been
attributed to fracture sustained wien
he was knocked to the ground, but
probing revealed gunshot wound. The
police were uncertain whether the
shooting was accidental or intentional.
In the excitement the firing Of the shot
had gone unnoticed.
Hewitts act deprived the American
sportsman of a good chance of captur-
ing the trophy, which was won by T.
Pilkington's Prince Palatine, with
Steadfast second and Alpho third.
The man had taken a position as
near as possible to the royal enclo-
sure, which was occupied by King
George and Queen Mary He stood at
the rail, and the countless guards, on
duty to prevent just such outrages,
had no warning of the tragic Incl
dent A.
The royal party, along with the
throngs of fashionable spectators, in
Guiding many foreign tourists, had
their eyes levelled ubon the stretch
with the field of eight horses, when,
with a shout, Hewitt hurled himself
upon the track. Before anyone could
interfere he had drawn a suffrage flag
and a revolver from his pocket and
dashed among the running horses.
Tracery was evidently mistaken for
a royal entry, for the man leyel!ed his
weapon at the Jockey, at the same time
waving his flag and shouting some
thing which was lost in the thunder Of
the horses hoofs.
Tracery staggered, throwing Jockey
Whaley, who turned a complete SOM
ersault In midair. Another horse, how
ever, which was running neck and
neck with the Belmont entry, struck
the suffragist, fiinging him to the
course.
The multitude was stricken into hor-
rified silence at the scene. A moment
later a murmur of sound went up and
guards rushed upon the course, lifting
the forms of Whaley and the suffra-
gist. The former was found to be I'M
hurt. King George and Queen Mary
sent a courier to ascertain the mans
name and his identity.
The authorities expressed the belief
that the man had been fanatic and
that brooding over the death OF Miss
Dawson had driven him insane.
