Arizona weekly citizen. [volume] (Tucson, Ariz) 1880-1901, 1893-11-04
TELEGRApHIc.

this morning there was much specula.
ton as to what propositions might be
launched at the last moment by thu
silver men, who had nothing to lose anG
and everything to gain by sudden
onslsughts on the repeal forces.
the opening indications are no,
promising for vote as early as Voorhees,
anticipated. Several western senators
had expressed desire to speak and az
the time to be consumed by Zach was
rather indefinite the final vote seemed
more likely to be delayed till 4 or
o'clock this afternoon.
There was manifest determtn alton
on the part of the repeal men to force
the vote as soon as possible without
violating senatorial courtesy.
SAN ANTONIO, Texas, Oct. 3O.-In 6
quarrel near here, Clarence Cotton
aged 10, son of a prominenet attorney
and Mac West, a well>known ranch
man, shot each other, fatally. Cotton

pected to live the day out.
SAN Francisco, Oct. 3O.-The firm
of Schacht, Lemoke & Steiner, sue.
cessors to G.. W.. Meade & Co., was
unable to meet its obligations today
and a meeting of its creditors was
called. The liabilities are about $780,.

DENVER, Col, Oct. 3O.-The Times
tonight prints review of the coal
miners; strike in Colorado, with specials
from nearly every camp in the state.
1t shows that out of 5000 miners en-
ployed 1000 are on strike. The
trouble between the miners and man.
ayers Is over the infamous check sys-
tenn by which the company gives the
right of psymaster to the storekeeper
and also failure to promptly pay the
men. The trouble threatens to extend
to every coal camp in the state and
cause an advance in prices, which will
work great hardship at present. The
116 mines in the state produced 10000
tons during September, which amount
will be reduced this month by nearly
10000 tons. 1t is estimated that over
1000 men are idle.
DENVER Oct. 30.-A special to the Re-
publican from Santa Fe says:
W. ID. Cameron, of New York, has a
surveying party in the field running
lines for a new railroad from Maxwell
City, across the maintains to Amiz tt
and Taos. From the latter point
comes the news today that this survey
is to run both west and south from
Taos, on arm to go toward Durango
and the other one to come south to
Santa Fe. This much has been learned
despite the secret methods of the chief
Smith, and force.
Members of the party we're in Taos
on Tuesday last to purchase camp sup
plies and say they had found several
very good routes across the mountains
and that road of easy grades had
been located via Elizabeth town as far
west of Taos Pass. They expected to
finish the survey of that the first divi-
sion by Monday next. The distance
from Maxwell City to Taos by this
route is only eighty miles. From Taos
the line will run westward and south
with a view of building line into this
city. The distance frem Taos to Santa
Fe they expect to cover within fifty
niles coming down Taos creek.
While the parties connected with
this survey refuse to say whom they
-epr sent it is drought they are asso-
,ia,ed with the Rock Island. OF all
western roads the Rock Island has
been most prosperous during the past
year and has made surveys through
his same region in former years with
/ view to extending their line west from
Liberal, Kansas, to the Pacific coast,
and this seems to give color to the
report that this solid corporation is
behind these moves on the railway
checker board in northern New Mexico.
ToULoN, Oct. 30.-As graceful end

leather. but pail hung over the great |
