Santa Fe, May 12.-That climate

rates is the reply of the Santa Fe
railroad to the request of the state
corporation commission for the $95
round trip rate to New York now
given to Deming to be applicable to
all competitdvee points in New Mexico
The Santa Fe has agreed to make 1t
applicable to Albuquerque, but not to
Santa Fe because:, eThe excursion
fares from New Mexico to which you
refer are summer fares going into a
hot and unfavorable climate from a
splendid climate like New Mexico's;s
and as there is practically no call
for such fares from New Mexico we
apply them only where competition
forces us to do so, We are compell-
ed to put them in at Albuquerque in
order that such traffic as exists at
points between FL Paso and Deming
and Albuquerque shall not all be
drawn into Ell Paso to secure these
rates as against Albuquerque. Re
garding fares to New Mexico from
points in the east climate alone does
not make an attractive resort. The

hostilities by the American forces

The recent charge by General Blan-

Colonel Porter. They agreed that
while actually no armistice exists
there is tacit understanding that
neither side will inaugurate hostili-

the agreement by General Funston

amendment provided that no. person
should pc appointed deputy sheriff
unless he had DeeH resident ef col
orado one year and 6f the county six
months, and that deputy sheriffs
should not accept employment as
guards for private corporations.
William D, Wright said the Kava-
naugh amendment sought to inject

and that. if adopted it would make the
measure. invalid.

fense of his amendment

of legalizing the crimes that have
been committed in the southern Col

clared. The amendment was voted
down, 20 to 33.
Hallet Gallup proposed an amend
ment providing that permits to use
fire arms during the term of a procla-

sheriff alone but by a board consist
ing of the sheriff, the county Judge
and the county commissioners This
