He Is not in a museum, nor is he in a coffin, although he is very decidly a dead one. Instead, that part of him which is in Albuquerque Is suspended by a wire from the wall of the office In W. L. Trimble's Second street livery stable, where yesterday a number of well known ethnologists examined him and pronounced him the real thing. That portion of the giant which has been transported from the original resting place Is the head complete, and the neck to the shoulders.

W. L. Trimble and F. E. Sturges.

the discoverers of the head tell a remarkable story of Its discovery and transfer from the pass to Albuquerque. Several weeks ago these gentlemen made an overland trip to Abo pass to see the work on the Santa. Fe cut-off. While driving through the pass one day, thus runs the story, Mr. Sturges espied a qeer looking rock sticking out above the ground and called his companion's attention to it.

Mr. Trimble Immediately pronounced It a human skull and in another instant both men 1 E. L. WASHBURN, 122 South Second Street. writ; uuioi on wit? grouiiu malting JL cavations around the rock.

Choosing, Labor day for reasons of their own, the Albuquerque Teamsters Union yesterday morning declared a utrike on the transfer firms of V. L. Trimble and company and the MeSpndden-Springer Transfer company. The men who walked out number about, thirty-five. Of these twenty have been working for the Trimble Transfer line while the remainder are employes of the McSpad-don-tf pringer company.

The strike was called because of the refusal of these firms to sign the union scale which demands a considerable Increase over the present wage scale. The demands of the teamsters are: General express wagon drivers using one horse, $1.75 per day; using two horses, $2.00 per day; for coal and sand haulers. $2.25 per day; for Ice drivers, $2.25 per day; for wholesale house delivery drivers, $2. GO per day; for hack drivers, $2.00. They further demand that they have the privilege of boarding where they please, and that the wages be paid at the end if each week." The present wage scale paid by the Trimble Transfer line is an average of about $25 per month board.

That is, the men are given bed and board in the barn, living at a common mess table. This the men claim Is unsatisfactory and a hardship and they are out for better conditions. The working day Is ten hours without extra pay for Sundays and holidays. The scale paid by the McSpadden-Springer company ranges from $1.50 to $2.00 per day, but is still somewhat under the general union scale. All Awarded Highest Honors World's Fair.

For hours the dl-ccerers toiled for their prize. a crowbar and an ax, and cut away the hard flint formation around the head. After working three and three nights without food or drink they brought the head unbroken from its age long resting place. Mr. Ti mble wanted to go on after the real of the body, but Mr.

Sturges protested that it would be cheaper to import a set of air drills and shoot ir (Hit. So they marked ihe spot and ci me away bringing the head win them. It is a remarkable specimen, whether genuine or not. The head is that of a giant, with perfect features and having a distinctly Ethiopian cast of contenance, the neck is massive and the veins and muscles are perfectly outlined in the rock. Even portions of the teeth show where the rock has worn away.

Several well known life insurance men Inspected the head yesterday. Mr. H. O'Rielly believes that in its present condition the giant would be a good risk. Mr.

C. W. Medler thinks that it might be dangerous to take it on any but a gold bond policy since it must have contracted lung trouble during its long sojourn in the ground. The face has a peculiar cardonic grin that is apt to get on ones nerves if one looks steadily at it for a few moments, the outlines of the eyes, and nostrils are perfect. In fact this portion of the giant Is perfect.

Trimble yesterday evening. "Some time ago a committee from the Central Labor union waited on me and presented a scale of wages with the request that 1 sign it.

I refused to do so, and explained to them that my business did not warrant an advance over the wage I am now paying. The men this morning walked out without warning, leaving three men In the barn. Later in the day one of the men came to me and asked me if I would sign the scale. I explained to him that I could not afford to do It at the present rates we charge for hauling. That is all there is to it." Mr.

Springer, of the McSpadden-Springer company, said: "I would like to meet the union scale, but at the present rates for hauling being charged In Albuquerque, it would mean a loss in the business. We cannot afford to do it." The union takes a very different view of the situation. They claim that the transfer companies can afford to pay the union scale, that it is not excessive and that the present status of the business justifies it. They point out that other firms employing teamsters have signed the scale and they believe that they will win the strike. It is understood that the transfer rompanies will proceed to run the business with nun-union men if they can Vie secured.

In this case the strikers say there will lie no disorder, since they rely on the moral support of their associates to win the utrike. They have been voli-d the moral am) linaniial support of the Centra! Labor union. "We said an offi( ei of I he Central Labor union last night, "that the teamsters arc making only a Just demand and they will have the moral ami if necessary lie fina ncia 1 support of every member of the Central Labor union, which now includes Iwen-ay-three unions.
