OCEAN HORROR IN DETAIL.
First Authentic Areonnt or the t'o
llma Disaster-Fierceness) of the
Mtorm Kravery of the
Officers.
San Franoipco, June 1. An Examiner
special from Mazatlan says: The steamer
San Juan baa arrived here with twenty-
one passengers picked up on Tuesday
from the wreek of the Colima. The
dreadful disaster, they say, happened on
Monday noon, abont ten miles from
ore. All the rescued are badly bruised.
They were pioked np from pieces of
wreckage, rafts and boats. The steamer
bad a large deck load or lumber. When
the storm struck her the captain had
great difBoutty in keeping her bead to
the sea. Tbe wind increased in fnry until
it is said to have been the fiercest storm
known alone the coast iu twenty years.
The waves wasbed oyer tbe vessel and
started the deck load. At last a mighty
wave struck her and- she was thrown on
her beam ends.
THE BTEAMEB TBEMBLKD.
as if she had run upon a reef. This gave
rise to tbe first reports that she had
struck on a reef. The gale tore part of
tne aecmoad of lumber from its fasten
ings and whirled the heavy planks about
with appalling violence. Many were
thus maimed and at least one passenger
was Killed by tne Hying timbers. The
survivors say that the offloers of the
steamer were brave and aotive. Captain
Taylor stood upon the bridge and First
Officer D. 8. Griffiths with him. At the
order Griffiths rushed aft to superintend
the launching of life boat Mo. 5. Seoond
Officer George Langhorn got life boat No.
3 launched and filled with passengers.
Then down went the ship. All in both
boats are supposed to have been drowned.
Captain Taylor went down with the ship.
as tne snip pitched downward be blew
three blasts of the whistle, supposedly as
a signal of good bye. Then he disap
peared beneath the waves. The engi
neers and firemen
WENT DOWN AT TBE1B POSTS.
Third Officer Hansen, as the steamer
sank, out some lashings of the deok lum
ber and tnen jumped, He was thrown
overboard on the weather side of the ves
sel and reaohed the top of the deok house.
There Hansen clung, washed and buffeted,
for twenty-fonr hours. He saw men and
women sink about him, but was power
less to aid them. Hansen says as the
steamer foundered her boilers burst. The
bursting of the boilers tore off the deck
and it shot over at least a dozen men
struggling in the wattr, drowning them
all. Flying debris hit others. The two
life boats were seen to be afloat. On one
were three men and on the other six, in
cluding 8. A. Ohilberg, of Seattle, Wash.
Ihe gale oaugnl the wreckage from the
orests of the great waves and beat the
struggling unfortunates with it. So the
fight for life went on. There was no hope
for women or children and small chances
for men in such a storm. Many women
and ohildren remained in the cabins.
Prof. Harold Whiting, wife and four chil
dren and nurse got into a boat, in whioh
were A. J. Sutherland sad "thers. The
boat swamped five times. At last only
Sutherland was left.

right to invade neutral territory.
BOLD POSTOFFICE RAIDERS.
Perpetrators of Three Daring Rob-
berlea Believed to Have Keen
Captnred la New York. -
New York, June 1. Three daring post-
office robbers have been arrested. They
are Joseph Eilloran, Charles Allen and
Harry Russell. Aoeording to Inspector
Holden, Soranton postofflce was robbed
by them in August, during the absenoe of
Postmaster Yrnding and his assistant at

MINERAL STATISTICS.
Output of 1N04 Compared with That
of ima-Valllng Off Doe to
Lower Prices.
New York, June 1. Statistics of the
mineral production of the United States
in 1891, oompared with the output of
18118, have been compiled With oare and
will be published to-day by the Engineer
ing and Mining Journal. The total value
of the mineral and metal prodoction of
the United States in 1891 and 1898 were
as follows: In 1893, $615,818,706; 1891,
$558,272,902, a decline of about $62,678,
901 or 9 per cent. This great falling off
was, however, due far more to lower
prices than lessened quantity of produot.
The production of gold increased from
$85,965,000, iu 1898, to $89,761,205, in
1891, but the commercial value of the
silver produood deelined from $17,811,
150, in 1893, to $81,103,631, in 1891, a fall
of $16.907,929, or 81 per cent.

A VIGOROUS KICK.
Eastern neat Consumers Complain
ing Bitterly Over the Acllon of
the Beef Trust.
New York, June 1. With the grip of
the Chioago beef trust on the price of
beef, foroing it up notch by notch, botch
ers and the public are having a hard
time of it. 3 t e squeezing of the trust is
now felt in every place where a piece of
meat is bought or a meal is served. The
monopoly to-day has the entire country
in its grasp front $astport, Me., to San
Diego, Cal. Every family in the land is
paying tribute to it, and the trust is grow
ing richer day by day.
In this big oombine against the people
are P. D. Armour fc Co., Nelson Morris
4 Co., and G. F. and E. C. Swift, whose
headquarters are in Chicago.
lnesemeu slaughter every pound of
beef consumed in this country, with the
exception of the insignificant amount
killed by oonntry butohers and farmers,
and by a few isolated slaughter honses
far from shipping centres. They have
been, and are now, from the power that
their control gives them, dictating the
price of beef both to the produoer in the
west and the consumer all over the
country.
Competition has been completely killed;
butohers have been driven out of busi
ness unless they pay the trust's big
prioes, and the chop or steak of the work
ingman has had to pay the tax imposed
by the trust's greed along with the roast
and the fillet of millionaire.
As a result, the butohers of New York
and Brooklyn and the people generally
are oomplaining. Some tailed, others
have gone out of business voluntarily.
The trust has by its methods made beef
so soaroe and high that there is no fair
profit in its sale.
Besides the prices of other meats have
gone up with the price of beef. Batch
ers say that mutton, lamb, veal, poultry
and other meats are steadily rising. At
the same time the demand is falling off.
But the trust keeps on, denying that it is
a trust, hoodwinking the government of
ficials, and the pnblic suffers.

a Might to Nearly Kvery thing
On Earth.
Chioago, June 1. Several months ago
Attorney General Maloney began quo
warranto proceedings against the Pu1'
man Palace Car company for the pur
pose of taking away its oharter and term
inating its oorporste existence. In his
information, the attorney general set up
that the company had violated its charter
by buying real estate and building the
town of Pullman, by erecting and operat
ing the Pullman building in this eity, by
manufacturing brick, and ia other ways.
Judge Baker handed down a decision to
day favorable to the oompany in all the
points but one. The court held that the
oompany had no right to own Pullman

A LOVER'S DESPERATION.
Yoinifr Flkkinger, of Bland, Shoots
Agnes Quinliven Then Kills
Himself-The Girl Will
Live.
One of the most cruel, selfish and des
perate tragedies in the history of New
Mexioo occurred at Albuquerque abont 9
o'clock on Thursday morning. Frank W.
Flickinger, bar-tender for 1 Barnett &
Henry at Bland, shot Miss Agnes Quin
liven, teacher of the publio school at
B!anQ last fall and part of the winter,
and then sent a 15-calibre bullet through
his own body. By the sheerest accident
only part of the girl's right ear was shot
away and the side of her head grazed and
she will recover. Flickinger died at 5
o'clock in the afternoon. The tragedy
was the result of a broken marriage en
gagement, Flickinger professing the
greatest affection for the one he sought
to kill. The deceased was born in St.
Charles, Mich., about twenty-five years
ago; came to Bland from Aspen and
cooked for Messrs. F. H. Mitohell and J.
C. Holt, of the Bland Tunnel company,
until employed by Arthur Henry; was
bright, well educated, dressy, good look
ing and apparently one of the most
amiable and harmless little men in the
world. He was about the last person this
scribe would have expected to commit
such a deed. Miss Quinliven is about 17
years' old, well educated, good-natured and
pleasant-looking, and alwrys lived with
her father and mother at Albuqaerque
until she went to Bland to teach the vil
lage school. There she formed the ac
quaintance of "Flick," as the young man
was called by everyone, and their young
friends supposed that a marriage rather
than a bloody tragedy would be the result
of their acquaintance.

and Brother-
Minneapolis, June 1. Mrs. Martha M.
Elias and her daughter, Annie, were found
weltering in their own blood in rooms
over a drug store on Nioolet avenue to
day. The old lady had evidently shot the
girl as she slept nnd then turned the re
volver on herself blowing the top of her
head off. They were well-to-do. Mrs.
Elias' mind had been affected by the vio
lent death of her husband eleven years
ago.
Later. More careful examination
Bhows that beyond a question both
women were murdered. It is the belief
of officials that the deed was committed
by Loraine D. Elias, son of the murdered
woman. Elias is mentally unbalanced
and was for a time confined in an asylum,
but was xulutaeJ uu May 1 as harmless.
His grip, containing his money and
clothing marked with his name, was
found in his room. At the morgue it was
discovered that the victims had been
backed and bruised with some instrument
like a hatchet and these wounds were
sufficient, in the case of the wirl at least,
to have produced death. The revolver
was not clutched tightly in the old lady's
hand as it would have been had she killed
herself, but appeared to have been thrust
into her hand.

The General Can't Think That Fort
Marcy Will Soon be Occupied
by Troops,
Gen. J. M. Sohofleld passed up the road
yesterday afternoon en route to Denver
from Fort Wingate, where he spent
Memorial day. There the Albuquerque
Citizen interviewed him and puts him
down thus:
"Will the Fort Maroy at Santa Fe be re
established!" asked the newspaper
man.
"Fort Maroy has always been a nioe
place for tbe soldiers,' remarked the
lieutenant general, "but' there are not
enough soldiers in the army to garrison
other and more important posts hence
the removal of troops from Fort Maroy.
This is the principal reason for the aban
donment, but still I see no need of sol
diers at Fort Marcy. It has been sug
gested to the department that the soldiers
at Fort Bayard might be removed to
Fort Marey, bat that would be an unwise
move, for Fort Bayard, almost on the
Mexioan frontier, is a much more import
ant post than Fort Maroy. Tho people
of northern New Mexioo would undoubted
ly like the move, while the southern sec
tion of the territory would enter a pro
test. I can Dot help but believe that
Fort Bayard is almost as important as
Fort Wingate, and the idea of abandon
ing the last post is altogether out of
question."
Lieutenant General Schofield will be re
tired from active service at the end of

ABSOLUTELY PUBE
VAST MINERAL WEALTH.
Account of Some of the Kich Mines of
Kiinlli SKiXaFe County All Look
ing1 Well New Producers.
Correspondence New Mexican.
Golden, May 31, It is rather surprising
how few of your readers are acquainted
with the vast mineral resources of south
ern Santa Fe county, and what is actually
going on in a mining way so near to
Santa Fe. Commencing about 16 miles
south of Santa Fe is a district in the vi
cinity of the Cash Entry mine which
covers nbont 15 square miles. It is
noted' principally for its silver and lead
mines, and I predict that as soon as the
silver question is settled, and with intel
ligent development this section will add
a score or more of good mines to the list
of paying producers in the west. Here,
also, is loonted the famous Turquoise
mine, which furnishes the eastern market
with some of the rarest specimens of
these beautiful stones.
East of Cerrillos, on the Galisteo, the
Santa Fe Placer Mining company will
soon commence operations on an exten
sive scale to wash the material of that ,
stream, whioh is rich in gold washed
down by the floods for ages from the
famous "Old Placers" and the Cunning
ham mesa.
At Dolores Mr. S. H. Elkins, who has a
lease from the New Mexico Mining oom
pany on the Cunningham mine, is putting
the stamp mill in repair to test the ores
from said mine. He also has a force of
men at work on the mine prospecting the
great ore body. Should these tests be
satisfactory the property will be worked
for all it is worth and
STAMP MILLS AND OTITKB DEDUCTION WOIIKH
will bo erected at Dolor.es, or on the Gal
iBtoo near Cerrillos. On the south Ride
of the mountains near Golden is Jnines
M. Lucas' stamp mill, whioh is now and
has been mining continuously for nenrly
two years on ore from his Black Prinee
and Ohio mines.
West of this and adjoining lies the
Cullen group, the biggest thing of all.
This property is being quietly developed
and negotiations are on foot to operate
it on a large way. Still west of this is
the Gipsy, a small, lead, but remarkably
rich. Six men arf? employed, which force
will be inorea8if6'"bO(in. On the Tuerto.
about three quarters of a mile north of
Golden, is the C. C. Fitzgerald reduction
works, now in operation and being en
larged to forty tons dnily capaoity. This
will be still further increased sufficiently
to handle all the refractory ores of the
camp. Mr. Fitzgerald has demonstrated
that he can successfully treat all such
ores.
About three quarters of a mile north
of San Pedro lies a group of six mines,
located nnd by Messrs. Bates & Co., of
Dallas, Texas, on which considerable de
velopment work has boen doue. Ar
rangements are now about perfected to
handle this properly to pat it on the list
of gold producers.
Adjoining this property is the New
Mexico claim, a recent discovery whioh
bids fair to become a record breaker in
free milling gold ore. The owners have
a foroe of men at work and contemplate
organizing a mining company to work it
to its fall oapaoity. The well known
ItlNOOLN-IjUOKY & LEE PBOPEBTY,
east of San Pedro, so well advertised in
the courts, in all probability will in the
near future recommence work, ns I am
informed a compromise is in progress.
Tbe Big Copper, the like of which is un
known in New Mexioo, needs no descrip
tion, only that it is a mountain of copoer
nnd gold ore. We regret to say this great
property has been idle for three years on
acoount of low price of copper and other
causes not the fault of the ore bodies.
East of this is the St. Lazarus, a de
sirable gold mine; well and Hui.tington
mill, which for unavoidable reaBons is
now also idle-. The company intends to
reorganize shortly and renew operations.
Northeast of the last named are several
good claims, the owners of which are in
correspondence with eastern capitalists
with a view of incorporating a mining
oompany for development.
The above are only a few of the claims
in this district which bid fair to become
prodooers at no distant day.
A great deal of
QOOD WOEK
is being done in a small way and in an
nual assessment work. The majority of
such claims show up well. Taking the
section north of CernlloB, and a scope of
country five miles in width and extending
south from said point for twenty miles,
is a disconnected mountain range of min
eral. The formations and surface indica
tions thereof have no equal in any coun
try. .
The possibilities of this immense sec
tion as to its mineral resources properly
devoloped is almost beyond, comprehen
sion. The extension of the D. & R. G.
railroad from Santa Fe to Cerrillos and
through Golden and San Pedro to Albu
querque would open up to the mining
and other business men of Colorado one
of the greatest fields for mining enter
prises and kindred industries in the
southwest.
Being direotly tributary to Santa Fe it
would greatly beuefit your city, and it
behooves your citizens that they shonid
have your full attention in a general
business wav.

Cured by Hood's Sarsaparilla
