New Mexico state record. (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1914-19??, 1916-10-27

One of the jokes of the campaign is w.
III. Hams, democratic candidate for repre-
sentative in Mckinley county. Mr.. Hams
publishes two newspapers. One of them, the
carbon City News, does not need the "filthy
lucre" of the Republicans, as it calls it, the
other, the Gallup Independent, carries the Re-
publican articles which are copies of the public
records of the state, for which it receives pay
at regular advertising rates. How Mr.. Hams
is able to have two attitudes at the same time
would be strange if it was not for the fact
that according to Mr.. Hams sworn statement,
Mr.. B.. M. Cutting, of Santa Fe, is associated
with him in his publishing company. This
explains the entire matter.
When Mr.. Cutting becomes interested in
a newspaper it always performs strange an
tics. The New Mexican, of which Mr.. Cut
ting and Mr.. Otero are the principal owners,
is vloently opposed to the reelection of Pre-
sldent Wilson, the head of the Democratic
ticket, on which Mr.. Otero is himself a cam
didate. A large part of the Democratic CAM
paign fund sent to New Mexico to assist in
the reelection of President Wilson is being
paid by the Democratic State Committee to
the New Mexican which is so violently op-
posed to Wilson, SO in reality the Democratic
national committee funds are being used by
the Democratic State Committee to help de-
feat the Democratic National ticket.
Mr.. Cuttings Gallup editor is fully in sym
pathy with Mr.. Cuttings New Mexican poll
cy of refusing to publish the sworn testimony

failure and other copies of public documents
in one of his papers because they ARE libelous,"
but has no objection to taking the money for
publishing the same documents in his other
paper. Just why they ARE libelous" in n
publication and not in another is something
that probably no one but Mr.. Cutting can

2,3OO Million Bushels of Wheat
Consumed This Year.

Big Surplus of Last Years Crop
Is Life Saver.

Rome, Nov. 1S.-Rigid economy
turnout the world in consumption OIL
food in view of the deficient crops
and extraordinary requirements of the
European armies is urged by the In
ternational Institute of Agriculture.
The institute says all nations are con-
fronted with a grave situation.
It is estimated that at least 1890
million bushels of wheat will be con-
sumed in the year ending July 81,
1917, and that at the end of this
period the worlds surplus supply of
wheat will have decreased to As mil
lion bushels. The report says it is
only on account of the fact that last
years harvests were abundant, leaving
a balance of $50 million bushels, that
there is available sufficient wheat for
the year ending next July.
Scarcity of Fodder.
The worlds surplus of five cereals
wheat, rye, barley, oats and corn
is placed at 533 million bushels. This
includes the unexportable Russian
stocks and also the stocks of Rumania
and Bulgaria. The surplus of oats is
placed at 166 million bushels.
A general scarcity of fodder is ex-
pected. The Russian stocks of wheat
now stored, which if military condi-
tions permitted for export at the next
harvest, are estimated at 800 million
bushels

GAS SUIT IS LOST
Topeka Industrial Council
Loses Injunction Case.
Judge WhitcOmb Denies Gas
Rate Controversy.

Application for temporary injunc-
ton that would restrain the receivers
of the Topeka Gas company from en-
forcing the 5O-cent rate, the 3-cent
penalty after the tenth day of the
month and from cutting off meters
for failure on the part of consumers
to pay gas bills was denied by Judge
Whitcomb. acting also for Judge
Dana. in the Shawnee county district
court this morning. The suit was
filed some time ago by members of
the Topeka Industrial Council Hear
ing for temporary restraining order
was held before both district judges,
sitting en- banc. last Monday
over a thousand gas consumers
numbering the poorer people, are not
materially affected by the 50-cert
rate. because the minimum monthly
payment would make the actual pay
ment almost the same. The rate is 35
cents for all above three thousand
feet.
Following attorneys arguments it
was taken under advisement
In denying the application for in
junction against the gas company this
morning, Judge Whitcomb stated that
the courts reason for denying the or
der was that it would affect the prop
erty rights of the receivers of the gas
company, and pointed out the other
suits in other courts and the public
utilities commission.
He went into the history of the
case in detail. While he didn't say
his court did not have Jurisdiction in
the matter. he said the court didn't
have such Jurisdiction as would JUS
Ify the Injunction under present cir
cumstances.
Last Monday when the hearing was
held, Tom Doran, attorney for the gas
company, called up the receivers of
flee and told Receiver Treleaven, who
is defendant in the suit. not to cut
off any meters pending the outcome of
the injunction hearing. The gas COM
pany is now free to begin cutting off
meters wherever the consumer has not
paid his bills. Harvey & Addington
are the attorneys for the plaintiffs.

Project Possible.

Berlin. Nov. 1S.-The movement for
peac. negotiations, according to re-
ports from the Swiss frontier which
were printed by the Koelnische Zei-
tung, is about to assume definite shape
in the form of a joint call from vari-
Gus neutral governments to the bel
ligerents asking them to send dele
gates to a peace convention. The re-
ports assert that the several European
neutrals are already in touch with the
American government and that var1-
Gus belligerents have been sounded on
the proposition of a conference.
According to this story the confer
ence would necessarily open its sit
tings without an armistice being pro-
claimed, interruption of hostilities
coming only after it was established
that the negotiations are apt to be
crowned with success.

It is stated that no facts are known
upon which the Koelnische Zeitung' ;
story could be based while it is con-
sidered not impossible that neutral
governments may be considering some
such step.

PRICE OF LEGS GOES UP
Decreased Purchasing Power of Money

the rising price of other necessaries
of life, the price of a mans leg fs
higher, according to the appellate
court, in affirming a judgment for
$1S,5O0 won by Fred De Fillippi, who
lost leg in 1911.
The Spring Valley Coal company
appealed, on the ground that De Fill
lippi had no need of such an amount.
The court held:
1.-The damages may be larger than
the court would have sustained a few
years ago. We cannot, however, be
unmindful of the fact that the money
value of life and health IS appreciate
ing and the purchasing power OF
money is steadily diminishing during

BLAME TUG CAPTAIN
Deutschland Awaits Conclusion of
Investigation of Fatal Collision.

New London, Conn. Nov. 1S.-The
German supersubmarine Deutschland,
in spite of its collision with the tug T.
A. Scott, jr., could again attempt her
voyage back to Germany at once. She
was only slightly damaged and, if re-
pairs are made, it will not be neces-
sary to take her into dry dock.
When she will prepare to leave will
not be discussed by Captain Koenig
or members of his crew. The Deutsch-
land must remain in port until United
States authorities have completed an
investigation into the accident which
resulted in the loss of the convoy and
five of the crew at the start of the
homeward trip yesterday.
Taking of testimony may consume
several days and the decision may be
reserved day or 30 longer. Captain
Frederick Hinsch, who was aboard the
tug, will testify today.
1t is believed here that the accident
will be attributed to bad Judgment by
captain John Gurney in steaming
ahead of the Deutschland instead of
remaining at her side

London, Nov. 1S.-England is to-

been such a wave of popular indigna-
ton as that which is sweeping the
country over fresh details of the Teu-
tonic plan of giving employment to
the Belgium civil population by de-
porting them to Germany.
1t is realized that with the United
States rests the only hope of inter-
cession to prevent a clean sweep from
the desolated nation of all its man
hood. Stories of fathers and sons
parted forcibly from their wives and
mothers and other loved ones by Ger
man soldiery have served to fan in
dignation to tester heat.
