Plumb occupied the time nf the senate on the silver question until a mesaage from the president relat ing to the landing of an armed force from the revenue cutter at Cedar Keys, Florida, which was read and referred to the committee on Judi ciary. The president in bis mes sage details the circumstances al ready familiar to the pudi; and adds: "It will be observed that the United Mate., collector of cus toms at Cedar Keys had been driven from his office and from the town, aad the administration of ihe cusu ms laws of the United S atrs at that port has been suspended by the violent demonstration and threats of one Cotteiell, mayor of the place, assisted by his town marshall. If it had been neces s-iry, as I do not think it can be in any case, for a United states oSicer to appeal to the local authorities for iinniuni'y from violence in the exercise of he duties, the situation at Cedar Keys did not sugeat or encourage such an appeal. The senate then adjourned. In the. house the silver debate was resumed this morning. The hou-e com mi tee on post offices bad under consideration to day a bill to make 8 consecutive hours a days work for postal clerks. Postmaster General Waunatnaker opposed the bill, insisting that it provisions are impracticable. At the evening aease a of the house the silver debate was con tinued and the house adjourned. JUSTICE IN NEW MEXICO. true Occaalon on Which It Was Promptly Administered. Chicaco Herald There is a quiet, pleasant-look ing man at the Richeli n who ex perienced more than his snare f he "rowdy we-t" during tne early days. He is Judge C D. Favor of Albuquerque, . M. He lett the tast and went to Albu querque w b-n the citizens used to have progressive snooting paru s, with a lynching f r a Biecial at traction. At that time no one ho had slain less than two or three) men c mid hold any iositiou of trust. "The wild and wooly days have passed away," -aid Judge Favor one day, "and Albuquerque- is quite a modern town. A few years ago the society leaders began to cut the acqua ntance of horse thieves, ana since then we have got along swimmingly. When I , rirt-t went on the ench dowa there we had plenty of law bat no justice. You could buy a jury for t20 and a tallnot whisky, and it was mighty difficult to convict a bad mau. I'll never forget the tirnt case I beard. Oue of the worst Sout hwentern desperadoes wan being tried before me for kill ing a man. The prison r had stolen whole herds of horr-es and murdered more than one man, but tne prosecution c uld not net any evidence. It looked at one time as if the man would go free, but Providence made other arrange ments. "After a four-days hearing the jury went out and brought in a verdict of not guilty. . I learned their decision before it was driven to me officially, and L also learned tnat four of the jurats bd been 'fixed.' I was about to discbarge the jury when we were disturbed by a violent storm. A rtroke of lightning knocked the shingles from the Courthouse and the rain poured into the room. 1 had just said something about justice whin he lightning iregan to fool aro ind. Sudenly a dash came down the chimney, skated up to the accused left him a corpse aud then went away through a crack in the floor. It must haveg -ne tlnounhaoack, for it let no marks in the room ex cept the dead man. I bad been in New Mexico lor five yeas, yet that was the first time I had ever ' seen justice met d out in an Albu querque courtroom." Go to the Monogram for fine cigars, candy, nuts and fruit.
