GEN. HERNANDEZ KILLED.

A Rio Grande special says that
news has been received there from
Guerrero, Mexico, that "Col. Neuve
Hernandez, who was arrested several
days ago by order of Gen. Garcia,
commander of the Mexican troops
in the northern zone of that country,
and started for Monterey, was killed
about one hundred miles north of
that city. Col. Hernandez was i'll
charge of a military escort, and &C.
cording to reports received here to-
day he was ruthlessly murdered af-
ter he had been taken away from his
friends.
The government had become sus-
picious of him, as it was believed
that he was secretly in sympathy
with the revolutionary movement of
Catrina CARA. He had been for
several years stationed at Guerrero
in command of the troops at that
place, and was one of the most pop
ular officers of the army. There is
great indignation expressed over the
alleged action Of Gen. Garcia in put,
ting him out of the way in such an
unmilitary manner.

THE MESSAGE.

The president has issued his mes
sage to songress, and it is an ex-
preston of faith and confidence in
the republican policy throughout.
He sticks to Sherman's silver certif-
cate and proposes a non-partlsian
electoral commission, recommends
more war-ships, and on the tariff it
is claimed for the McKinly act that
foreign trade has increased imports,
but the increase is in schedules
where the duty was reduced, hence
the protection argument fall flat.
The post Office management receives
warm praise. The Indian problem
is treated in accordance with the
popular sentiment of the people for
more unoccupied land. 1t speaks
strong against monopolies in the
control of waters in the irrigative
territories. He says the civil service
reform has made fair progress, and
urges congress to take steps to pro-
tect the lives of railroad employees.
He is down on the Chinese for re-
fusing to receive Blair as minister,
and proposes that the exclusion act
be strengthened.
The message is long one and
from a cursory glance over it ap-
pears to be about what might have
been expected; no more nor less.

THE sPEAKERSHIP.

Since the speakership contest is
over papers all over the country
who could not foretell the sresult
and even guessed wrong, are busy
explaining the reason for Mills de-
feat. The true reason is easy lis
votes was necessary to nominate,
and while Mills fell short of that
number eleven, Crisp received four
over the required number. Mills, it
is true, was the foremost exponent
of the tariff reform movement on
the floor of congress, and has been
ever since Carlisle was elected to
the senate, and as tariff reform is to
be the campaign slogan in the ap-
preaching presidential campaign, it
was reasonable to suppose that
Mills would be chosen speaker, but
it seems that there are those in con-
gress who do not think tariff reform
will be the only leading question.
The silver question, it is believed by
many, will cut an important figure
in the approaching campaign, and it
is said by some that Mills defeat
was caused by his assertion to Car
Isle and other democratic leaders,
the belief that party success de-
manded that the agitation of free
coinage should be disregarded until
tariff reform had been pushed to
success. Others say that his sue
cess meant the nomination of Cleye-
land by the next national democrat
ic convention and brought HIM op-
position from nti-Cle7eland men,
while some of the papers claim that
his defeat was caused by misrepre-
sensations of his enemies who
charged that at heart he was free
trader and would shape legislation
in that direction, catering to the
money lenders of the East and
thereby alternating his Western sup
port Others hold that his hot
medicines untitled him for the con-
troll of the deliberations of that au-
gust body. His defeat, however,
let it have been caused by whatever
it may, has not lowered him in the
esteem of his constituents, and they
will doubtless prove this by promo
ting him to the Senate.

started, to be known as the Brother
hood of Christian Unity. All may

love to God and love to man as the
rule of life, promising to accept
Jesus Christ as the leader, to study
his character with a desire to become
imbued with his spirit, to initiate
his example. and to be guided by his
precepts. This is all there is to it,
and while it is substantially Chris.
tian it may please many who are not
willing to unite with a Church.

Readers of the JoURNAL-MINER will
 remember sbat about year ago this paper mentioned the fact that iudica- tions of the existence of coal within a few miles of Prescott had been discov. cred and that considerable excitement had been created over 1t. About . dozen locations of coal claims were filed at the time. Under the coal law, claimants are allowed one year ts make proof and payments for the land. Through some misunderstanding among the parties filing for the land but little work was done towards developing the property, and thay were finally permitted to remain dormant entirely. That coal exists there, experts claims there is no doubt whatever, and as a number of the former filings have expired. interest in the matter seems to have again been revived and during the pas, few days number of locations have again been made with the additional prospect in view that the ground will be immediately prospected to ascertain whether the indi' cations are correct or not. Among the the prime movers in the enterprise is Paul Loske. who, in addition to an ed- ucation in Europe in aIschool of mining, has had severalyears pra-ticarexperienos in coal mining. He is not only positive of the existence of coal, but he claims to be able to tell at about the depth 1t w,ii be found and the nature of the coal when found. He says the surface indications are perfect and that the coal when found
 will be capable of being made into coke
 Should his reading ot the earth prove COT. rect. within less than one yem Prescott
 promises to become. not only the coal center of Arzona, but will become the metropolis of the territory. The discoy- cry of coal of the above character wlll result in the ertc:ioa of large reduction works here for the treatment of ores the greatest obstacle TOW in the way,
 being the extremely high price of coke
 A number of our citizens have become interested in the matter, and part;es who have located the claims will pool issues and raise purse to prospect the prop
 critics either by boring or by using
 diamond drill. A few months experi-
 menting will determine the question.
