Revelation was made of a deliber-
ate, premeditated murder when the
body of Giovanni Batiste Franko, ar
Italian miner from Van Houten was
found few days ago lying in the
East Side arroyo, by George Alvis
driver of the city garbage wagon
Franko had apparently been dead
about IL hours, and his body and
head bore nine wounds from 81 and
38 caliber guns, three OF one size
and six of the other. Footsteps OF
two men and one woman leading
out told the whole story of the
crime except the identity OF the
murders. An inquest was held in
Judge Bayne's office where the
above facts were disclosed.
Franko came to town with money,
paid off some bills and note AT
the international State Bank, and
was seen about the city on the East
Side by numerous people who
knew him
Little is known Of Franko. ex-
cept that he has relatives in the

siderable sums at different times

Announcements have been receiy-
ed that the embargo on wheat ship.
ments to Galveston, which has been
in effect since August End, has been
removed.
The news was welcomed by local
grain men and farmers throughout
Curry county because the embargo
had done more to hinder the mar
ket than any other factor. Wheat
sold last week for $40 per bnshel
and grain buyers are expecting a
substantial raise soon
During the past three weeks
grain has been shipped to larger
elevators and storehouses in Hous-
ton, Dallas, Fort Worth, and other
Texas points, but for the last few
days very few shipments had been
made from New Mexico points.
Since most of the Curry county
wheat is exported, and since Gal
weston is the chief export point for
this territory, it is probable that
most of the wheat in this vicinity
will be shipped as fast as cars are
available.-Clovis News.
The recent heavy rains will re-
suit in a large acreage of land be-

two years have served as an eye
opener to others and as result
more small grain will be planted
than ever before.-Melrose Messen-

The Santa Fe Railway company
this week, through their assistant
attorney. George s. Downer, ap-
piled to the state corporation COM
mission for twenty per cent in
crease in intra-state fares.
The majority of the lines in New
Mexico have four cent a mile
rate and the increase will bring It
up to 48. where in other states the
fare averaging three cents a mile,
will be raised to 3.6.
The small number of passengers
and the hauling over mountain
roads are given by the railway
company as reasons for the raise.
The commission refused the raise
feeling that four cents was the limit
but, the companies, with the excep-
ton of the Southern Pacific have
filed tariffs by which the new rate
will go into effect October !. New
Mexico, Arizona and Nevada are
the only states in the union favore.l
with the four cent rate and as the
people OF these states had begun ?
fight on this amount before the
interstate commission had granted
the recent raise, a hearing will be
held on the subject by that body on
p In this lies the only
hope OF the commission to keep
down the passenger fares.
