THE LATEST NEWS.
The San Juan Gold Fields De- scribed by a Reasonable Man Just From
 There.

Saturdsy's Democrat, published at Flagstaff. contains the latest authentic information from the new gold fields. Deputy Sheriff Fairchild, of Coconino county, had just returned from there and was interviewed Friday night last by the Democrat. He states substan- tially as follows:
 Thus far two mining camps have been started, 75 miles apart. and about 23O miles from Flags'aff, and on the San Juan river. The first one is To- cated between tive box canyons, one above and the other below the mines. These mines are owned by a syndi- cate, composed of the firm of Lester & Sawyer and officials of the A. X F. railroad company, who are making every preparation possible to work their properties. This company has located some 100 claims and expended about S7 1000 in making trail down to their mines. They are preparing to tunnel the river at that point and turn its course, and will put Sl0O,OO0 into the enterprise.
 Messrs. Fairchild Marshall and Banta have located over 20 claims about 75 miles above these first men, ticned mines, and the two last men, toned gentlemen are still there. These claims are about 10 miles from Bluff City, the county seat of San Juan county, Utah, and the lumber can be had at this camp for S3O per thousand. Provisions are not so high and there is plenty of water for min ing purposes.
 The prospects there have from 10 to l50 colors, and seem to extend for a distance of 100 miles up and down the river. and thin gold can be found out A distance of one mile from the banks of the San Juan.
 There have been fabulous reports gone out as ,o amounts taken out by different parties, while in reality there have been no certain amounts taken from any of the placer regions, but none doubt their richness.
 The weather was nice when Mir. Fairchild left, but he thinks in the spring will be the best tune to mine. He expressed the idea that he would uot be surprised at the San Juan be- coming the greatest mining camp in the west.

THERE is food for reflection over the sad fate that has overtaken the mem- bers of the families of the president and his state secretary during the past year. The Blaine family has been nearly obliterated by natural causes, and the death of Mrs. Harrison fol- lowed by that of MT. Blaine, which is at hand. is not without It's attending lesson. It should teach us that ex- alted positions cannot always bring happiness CT drive the grim visitor from the threshold

The first authentic news received at Phoenix from the gold diggings was brought by A. s. Mills. citizen of th,t town who returned on Saturday last. The Herald says that he con firms the report that they are the richest diggings ever discovered in the United States. He says that the San
 Juan i. the northern boundary of the Navajo reservation and that the nver enters the Colorado about six miles this side of the Arizona line, pay dirt extending for fifty miles up the river.

"Ihe slowest railroad in the world is the Arizona & New Mexico, that, runs from Benson to Nogsles, and it takes eight hours to make SS miles, ' remarked E. c. Tuttle. This is a islander on one Of our southwestern enterprisee.-Albuquerque Citizen.
 The lives of our people are too precious to be trified with by making a mile a minute, as do the trains in the east. It is not the fault of the railroad company that they do not run "Hyers" but the wish of the peo- pie, who would not pa.ronize the road if it did SO. Let it be sad to the credit of the road that not passenger train has ever been wrecked or the life of passenger ever been lost since the fret train ran over the rails ten years ago. Tine reason that most ol us came out to this country was to get away from that fast way of living that characterizes the eastern people.

SPEAKER CRISP is the lion of the hour at Washington. The Post of tha. city, which has been interviewing members, finds s great many of Crisp's former enemies who are now his friends. Among the number of the latter is Mark smith, who was inter viewed by Post reporter. Mr. Smith said: '.If I had a thousand votes they should all go to him. If any man was entitled to speak at that banquet it was Mir. Crisp. Ii any n an had the rigbt to expect that he would be called on, 1t was MT. Crisp. He should have followed incoming presi- dent. The speaker of the House of Representatives is not supposed to take back seat in any Democratic meeting. No alert courtesy could have invited him and then overlooked Linn no alert courtesy could have so insulted the third officer of the nation, and the action of the managers of the Reform dinner will result in adding ssssugth to Mir. Crisp, and will make certain his reelection to the exalted position be now occupies"

Railroad Collision in Chicago.

CHICAGO, Dec. 29.-Four persons were
killed aud twice the number injured this
morning by a collision between a street
car and locomotive at 47th street and
Stewart avenue. The street car was
crowded and was crossing the Fort
Wayne track when an engine came
backing down toward the crossing run
ming at the rate of about fifteen miles
an hour. The occupants of the car did
not see the cab approaching the crossing
on account of heavy frost on :he window
of the car. The passengers did not see
the engine bearing down on them and In
an instant the engine struck the car and
passing on leaving a trail OF dead and in
iured people. The car was dragged for a
distance of one, hundred and fifty yards
and at every foot distance some in
Jury was added to tho ;e inflicted.
When the engine first struck the car,
the widest commotion reigned for the
first few minutes. The wounded were
soon picked no by willing reScuers and
were carried | to houses near the cross
ing. The train and street car men, also
two crossing watchmen, were arrested.
The accident was due to the grOSseSt
carelesSness, as is shown by their
own statements. The crossing men were
not attending to their duty and neither
knew of the catastrophe until after
the crash and when the victims scattered
along the track, were seen by them, as
thew 10th emerged from Allbright's
shanty. Albright is the Waterman who
was employed at the same crossing sew
eral months ago, when an accident re-
suited in the death of two persons and
the injury of others.

From Our Democratic Contributor


A democrat in our esteemed morning
neighbOT, shows us that the fears of Mr..
Cleveland that he cannot find patriots
enough to fill the important offices, are
all gIound up. The patriots of San An
tonic will help him out of the difficulty,
they are willing to help whether they
worked in accord with, or against the
Chicago and Turner Hall Conventions,
and will sacrifice their hOme-life for the
worry of official care. II we furnish Mr..
Cleveland a member of the cabinet, a
Governor for a Territory-SOon to be a
state--a minister to Paris and one to
Brussels, surely the Hon. Tom PaSchal,
Of the Twelfth Congressional District
must feel proud of his constituency. No
Congressman in Texas will have so much
moral backing as ours; it is true, San
Antonio did not furnish a solitary speak
er, who could remember that the LlanO
convention that nominated Mr.. Paschal
was the only pure democratic convention
held, in which San Antonio had a united
voice; and the election itself made a
shameful record for the democracy of
San Antonio or BeXar county, but pa
triotiSm has had its sleep and is waking
up. Mr.. Henry Vernon and Joseph Ryan.
faithful Paschal men, must feel proud of
their co-patriotS, who are anxious to
serve the country.

Conlin was appointed on the same day
