Promote Railroad.

Recognizing the difficulties which lie
in limited transportation facilities, the
service decided that the contractors
should be allowed to construct a rail
road connecting Colorado and Utah
with the Grand canyon, which hereto
fore has been accessible only by the
southern approaches. For several years
the construction of such a road has
been considered by capitalists, but it
has been said that the lack of assured
traffic proved an etfectual barrier.
1t was pointed out at the depart
ment today that a contract for bill
lion feet Of timber will overcome this
difficulty and provide a commodity
transportation which, with the tourist
and local traffic included, will place
the project on q paving basis.

Will Go to England.

SIR Lionel Garden probably viii come
TO England before going TO his new
post. 1t is said by his friends that
when Sir Lionel went TO Mexico he
was offered the choice of going directly
TO Rio dc Janeiro to succeed Sir Will
liam Henry Doveton Haggard, who had
reached the retiring age, or of spend
ing six months in Mexico as minister
there before proceeding to Brazil. Ow-
ing TO the state of health of his wife,
Sir Lionel decided TO go TO Mexico
first.
Unfortunately Sir Lionel went to
Mexico with reputation of being anti
American, at time when a good un-
dcrstandiug between the United States
aud Great Britain was vital,
Naturally tho British government de-
Tended Sir Lionel against the attacks
on him, but the belief prevailed mt the
same time that it would be better to
find another post for him,
Salary Is Larger.
The salary Of the British minister at
Rio dc Janeiro is Sl7 800, with a house
allowance of Sl250, while that at
Mexico City is $4,000 less and no house
allowance.
Charles Murray Marling. the prob
able successor Of Sir Lionel Garden,
has had a long and varied career IN
the diplomatic service. which he Joined
IN 1883. Most of t:e time he has oc.
cupIed diplomatic posts in the cast. at
Honstantinople, Athens and Tcheran,
but he has also served at Paris. Sofia,
Madrid and Rio de Janciro.
The officials at the foreign Office
were not prepared this evening to dis.
cuss Sir Lionel Garden IS transfer from
Mexico City. and were surprised to
discover that the intentions of the
government had leaked out It is gen.
orally understood. however, that the
government takes much the same view
as the public, that the minister has
not been entirely discreet in handling
the situation in Mexico, although the
government does not believe that he
has done anything to Justify the very
severe criticism loveled against him,

in seizing rope that was thrown to

from the Oklahoma lowered themselves

perience of the last twenty-four hours.
Captain Gunther stated that last
Sunday at 1:30 a. M, during heavy
weather and without any previous
warning, the ship suddenly broke in
two behind the bridge. In about
twenty-five minutes the after part Of
the ship, with a crew of thirty-two
men, sank, the stern pointed upward

the vicinity Of the wreck and which
came into port this evening made n re-

Nothing to Be Done.

"On the evening of January a
Spanish steamer (probably the Manuel
Calvo) had appeared in the vicinity OF
the Oklahoma, but was unable, owing
to the bad weather. to accomplish any
thing Immediately after the Bavaria
reached her this morning the steamer
Tenadores arrived at the scene of the
disaster. but there was nothing left to
be done, the Bavaria having taken of
the men. The Gfe.saving work took
place in latitude 39,7 north, longitude
T3.45 west.
Shortly after this message had been
received bv the Hamburg American
line another came from Captain
Graalfs. This said:
According to statements made by
some of the men saved boat from the
stern part of the Oklahoma, with from
eight to ten men in il, was seen. Its

The II. II. Richardson farm two
miles southeast Of the city was sold
Tuesday afternoon to F. N. Laug-
harm Of Jacksonville, ILL.,, for $1,000,
there being twenty acres in the tract
which was in good state Of cultiva-
tion. The improvements included not
only an excellent pumping plant but
a very attractive Groom bungalow
which is modern in every way.
Mr.. Laugharn and family will take
possession at once and will make
their home on the tract. Mr.. Rich
ardson has not announced his plans,
but 1t seems certain that he will not
move from this vicinity.
The sale probably demonstrated a
higher land value than any other
in this valley. It goes
to sho" what improved land in the
Valley is actually worth,
yet Of the 200, 900 acres in the val.
le' only $4,000 are under cultiva-
Iion. There is plenty of cheaper
land for those who have the deter
mlnation to improve their farms.
The sale was cOnsummated by the
Nells-Peugh Realty Company, a real
estate firm which has been very sue
'essful in the business in Deming.
