ed with fighting and threatening the
conductor Of southbound train,
Ynnocent Mata, who lives in chihua-
hua, was fined $40 and costs by Po-
lice Magistrate Craig this morning.

charge Of party of Mexican laborers,

homes in Old Mexico. He had been
furnished with transportation for
26 men, but when the conductor out
Of albuquerque counted noses he dis
covered 90 sun-kissed natives of Huer-
ta's bailiwick. Not being able to To-
cate the hombres who were without
right to be on the tram the conductor
gave the mayor domo, Mata, the
choice of pointing out the intruders
or getting off the train. Mata object
ed and made war talk, knives were
drawn and a lively row was in pros
pect when Isleta was reached. Here
Mata and another, who appeared to
be leader of the disturbers, were
given in charge Of Special Officer
Thomas and sent back to albuquerque.
1T was necessary, before the train ar
rived at Isleta for the members Of
the crew to arm themselves with shot
guns from the express car in order
to overawe the obstreperous Mexi-
cans.
jose olguin, the second Mexican
was charged with being drunk and
Notwithstanding his plea Of no
guilty he was fined stOO or ten days
in Jail.
Atanacio Muniz and Jose Garcia

been apprehended in saloon at
o'clock this morning. They were re
leased with the warning to go bacl
to work or shake the dust of our faii
city from their brogans.

PLANNING BIG UNDERTAKING.

Amsterdam, Holland, Nov. 6.-Tfe
government commission appointed
several years ago to investigate the
feasibility, probable cost, and other
matters relating to the proposition Of
reclaiming the land at present cover
ed by the Zuiderzee, a large body of
water connected with the sea and COW
ering about 10000 hectares, has just
submitted an interesting and volum-
inous report, thoroughly covering ev
eryr phase and detail Of the stipend
GUS plan. 1t appears that the fish
cries in the waters OF the Zuiderzet,
once famous for the enormous guam
titles of herring and other salt wa
ter fish caught there, have not been
very profitable IN ra5ent years. Il is
estimated thar the ;ota value Of the
fish caught in the zaiderzee does not
now exceed 100000 florins a year,
while by the cultivation of the re-
claimed land nov covered by salt vs.
ter 70,OOO,000 si year couli be
realized. The commission Estimates
that the cos Of the work, ircluaius
indemnities, etc. woald not exceed
1S9, 100000 flori'is and tnat the work
could be completed in about 30 years.

CHINESE 70 HANG FoR MURDER


Portland, Ore. Nov 6-After le-
gal fight extending over period of
five years Lem Woon, alias Lum
suey. a Chinese who was convicted
Of numbering Lee Tai Hoy on March
IL, 1903, during a Tong war, will be
hanged a week from today, unless
Governor West should see fit for soR"a
reason to grant a reprieve. Lem
Woon was originally tried in the sum
mer of 1908 and Circuit Judge Bron-
augh sentenced him to hang on No
yember 20. of that year. The con
demned mans lawyers appealed first
to the state supreme court and from
that to the United States supreme
court, basing their appeal upon the
fact that the defendant was tried on
an information after the legislature
had provided for indictments, but be-
fore the law became effective, The
conviction was upheld in both higher
courts and it is believed that the le-
gal resources Of the defense are ex-
hausted. At the county Jail every
thing is put in readiness for the exc
cution and it is not believed that the
governor will interfere with the exc
oution Of the sentence.

SIX DEFENDERS
FOR YACHT RACE
Elimination Contests Are Seized
uled for Next September

plans of American yachtsmen can be
considered equivalent Ia yachts there
will be no scarcity of cup defenders

next summer. No less than six Sow
cnty-fivc foOtcrs have already been
proposed and should all bc built, the
trial and elimination races will be
equal in interest To the cup contest
proper scheduled for next September
1t appears certain at this time that at
least four Of the six yachts projected
will eventually slide off the ways and
that pacht racing with a reasonable
type of ocean racer will receive a ire
mendous boom.

&C. ono or two other yachtsmen is de-
sired before any definite announce

The plans for the fifth and sixth
yachts are rather vague at this time
but contain, nevertheless, possibilities
which may develop additional barriers
between the Americas Cup and the
