Alamosa, Col., August 30, James
Bonnet, fireman on engine 29, was shot
aud iustautly killed at San Antonio
station, on the D. & li. G. railroad at
fire o'clock this lU'te"rñon. Bennct
at the tune he was shot was standing
ou the engine, which was laying at
the station, when a wagon drove up,
containing besides tho dricr, James
Catron, Capt. Spoor, Dave Itisslcr and
Jas. Nichols, all under the influence
of whíákéy, and all commenced shoot
ing promiscuously . It is said that at
least thirty shots were fired, and one
man had a bull through his hat before
Bennct was shot. At the time of the
shooting, four or five men were on the
engine with young Bennct, aud the
circumstances of the shooting go to
show that it was pret-'litated.
Bonnet was from Troy, N. Y. and hud
been on the road only about three
months, lie was of a quiet and unof
fending disposition aud generally be
loved by all who knew him. Several
tif iho party named as being coucern
ed in the shooting, are recognized
j as desperate characters. No arrests
have yet been made but the officers
are in pursuit of the miscreants.
LATEIl.
Spoor, Catron and "Nichols have
been captured aud now are in jail at
Conejas, and strongly guarded. It
will not be surprising if all three are
lynched before morning. The rail

taken.
Chicago, August 30 An Inter
Ocean'e special says : The gold that
is being sent to the mint f rom New
York will probably not, bo coined for
some time to any extent owing to the
fact that there is so little demand for
it. It is assayed and United States
coin paid for it, but for the present
most of it will be simply stored.
Eventually all this foreign coin now
arriving will be melted and recoincd
into eagles and half ca les. Now the
amount that is being coined is great
er than silver but the number of
pieces is ery much Icis. I he Iuler
Occau has slight hopes that Ouray is
not dead after all as it read no con
firmation to-day. The supervising
bill said that the unexpended balance,
six or seven thousand dollars of the
$20,000 ippropriatcd last session lor
the con-miction of additional silver
vault ranaiuiug after the erection of
a vault in Philadelphia and p. vault in

the construction of a third at some

Editor Gazette.
I herewith enclose you for publi
cation a copy of a petition from the
citizens of the Pec. s valley to the
Postmaster General, of the U. S. mail
route No. 39,114, from Ft. Davis, Tex
as to Ft. Stanton, N. M.
Knowing the zeal your paper has
displayed iu promoting the best in
terests of New Mexico, and that you
always extend a helpiug. hand to the
people in their efforts to devclope the
rcsour :es of the territory, lam con
fident you will do what you cau t
bring this matter before the people,
and to the attention of the govern
ment. We arc blessed with a country for
which nature has done much. The
hand ot art is beginning to be felt,
and iu a lew years, if we meet with no
serious drawback?, the Valley of the
lower Pecos will compare lavurably
with any other part of the west.
Within the past year our popula
tion has been doubled. Every class
ot iiiin. igrauis are flocking htio ihr
country, and they will continue to
come providing proper encourage-'
incut be given to them. Just when
we are making such rapid strides in
the march of progress, indi iii Hume
scums asi-ured, ihecu ling oil' of our
mail facilities, a matter ot serious im
port to us. Should this rutile be 'lot
again established, the people along
the Pecos for a distance of 3U0 miles,
will enjoy no mail advantages what
ever. The cut ting off of our maiis is
indeed a serious blow to our growth.
People wi'l not care to settle in a
country where all communication
with the outside world is denied
them.
Again the discontinuance of this
route is peculiarly unfortunate at
this lime. It is known that Victorio
with his murderous Apaches lias
benn endeavoring for the past three
weeks to niuko his way into thej
G uadalupc mountains. It is now re
liably reported that he has succeeded.
With this strong hold as a basis of
operations, it 3 an easy matter for
him at any moment to attack our
settlement. During the whole of the
bloody war ho has waged the troops
have proved themselves worse than
useless. Our people realize this f.tet,
and look to their own strong arms
for protection. This mail route run
ning, they can keep posted as to
Victorio.s whereabouts, and be pre
pared to meet any attack he may
nifike.
1 hope Mr. Editor you will give
this matter some attention, for you
cannot fail to see of what impor
tance it is to the people of smth
eastern New Mexico.
Pecos.
To the Honorable Post-master Gen
eral, Washington, I). C :
We, your undersigned petitioners,
citizens of Roswell and the Pecos Val
ley, would respectfully represent to
your honor, thnt we suffer serious in
conveniences and injury through the
discontinuance of U. S. mail route No.
39,114, from Fort Davis, Texas, to
Fort Stfintou, New Mexico. That we
tho said citizens, of said valley, com
posing a large extent of territory, are
afforded mail facilities by said route,
No. 39,114 above, that owning to tho
discontinuance of said route, we en
joy no mail advantages whatever, to
our serious hurt and detrcment. That
our country is now being rapidly set
tled and developed, and should we
enjoy mail facilities, a serious chek
will be given our progress, and it may
require years for us to recover, what
we lose by the discon inuance of said
route for a short time. That, the mail
for distribution alone said route now
lies in the offices at Fort Davis and
Ft. Stanton. and il is impossible that it
retch its destination unless said route
be re-established. That the Apache
Indians of southwestern New Mexico
and Arizona, under the leadership ol
Victoria, are now 011 the war path,
and are liable to attack us at any
time; that in the absence of telegraph
ic communication, we are forced to
rely on our mail facilities alone for
information in regard to Indian iu
cursions, thereby receiving informa
tion which would enable us to or
ganize against a sudden attack.
Now, therefore, we your petitioners,
would most respectfully and earnestly
urge your honor tore-establish snid
route at as early a season as practica
ble. Aud your petitioners will ever
pray &c, &c.

Ed. Gazkttk :
Dear Sir : Court is over in Mora
and a portion of that Hon. body ar
rived here last night expecting to
take the train to-day for Springer,
but the interposition of Providence
and the washouts caused them to
change their plans, and go by the old
reliable way, Buggy aud Horses, we
also had In our neighborhood Col. J. F.
Chaves aud the (Tranquil Moon)
Tranquilino Luna. They left this
inorniugforCimarron, Colfax County,
and I am afraid to waste their sweet
ness on the desert air. rather like
the appearance of tho Republican
Delegate to tho 47th Congress, and no
doubt he is a smart man. I expected
he would give the citizens of this
place a chance to judge of his power
aud eloquence but no such a favor
was granted us. I suppose he will
leave us and take us in ou the home
stretch, or he may think he has this
place dead, but some times dead
things crawl.
This is the fourth day and no mails
yet, we are cut oil" from the world
on boih hides; ihe city of Las Vegas
might take lire aud bo reduced to
Kshes .-Hid wo would know nothing of
it, camioi some arrangement be made
so we cu:d get our mads, washouts
orno wufhoiits. Il is too had to he
deprived of mi'' mails in this way.
In the g mil old d i s of the staye Inn-,
if she missed a mail on account of hud
roads, or high water, such a howl
and wail went up. that t ho contrac
tors were compelled to deliver it iu
24 hours or stand a fine, and are the
Railroad company any belter than
the stage line. I think not.
On the morning of the 20th I wrote
you a long letter in regard to Ihe last
washout, which done a good deal of
of damage, but we have had no mails
since aud I did not send it tor I sup
pose you have heard all about it by
telegraph before this. Send up some
papers by private con vevaiice and
oblige.
Yours Truly,
S. II. VV'KLLS.
The last flood in the L'ecos, has
been the mo', severe of all. Il ran
through the streets of Fort Sumner
and almost denuded the valley of
crops, sweeping the fields bare. The
river was higher at Anton Chico than
ever before known. Don Lorenzo
Labadie, lo.-t his entire crop of wheat
which was just ready for ihe harvest.
Between the drouth in the early part
of the .summer and the floods in the
latter part, the crops in 'he Pecos val
