TELEPHONE CIRCUIT.
Charter for New Line to Radiate
from the Capital City to
Adjacent Towns.

The New Mexico Telephone company,
designed to construct and operate sys-
tenn of telephone lines connecting Santa
Fe, Cerrillos, Albuquerque, Las Vegas,
San Pedro, Golden and Cochiti, was filed
in the Office of the territorial secretary
to-day. The capital stock is $4,000 and
the incorporators are Messrs. l. Sparks,
superintendent of the local telephone
system, Col, T. F. Moore and Hon. Lorion
Miller. Santa Fe isnamed as the princi-
pal place of business and the charter runs
for Fifty years.
The incorporators expect to have the
poles placed for the main line between
this city and Cerrillos, a distance of TWEEN
ty-four miles, during the coming two
months, and hope before midsummer to
have their line in operation via Dolores,
Golden and San Pedro to Albuquerque
with a branch from San Pedro across to
Cochiti. While entirely independent of
the telephone system which Mr.. Sparks is
now erecting in this city, the wires of
the new company will connect direct with
the city SYSTEMS switch board so that
any subscriber here may talk direct with
those in the adjacent towns.

laying will now be pushed to completion
as fast as possible.

BLOSSBURG EXPLOSION.
Coal Mine Inspector Spears Returns
from the Scene of the Accident
The COrOner's Jury
Verdict.

United States Coal Mine Inspector j. G.
Spears is lying ill at the Exchange hotel
The inspector has just returned from the
Blossburg coal mine near Ration, where
the fatal explosion occurred last Thurs
day. The published accounts of the ex-
plosion all state that it was caused
/ by the removal of the drum that fur
nishes air to the mine. This the mine in
spector denies. He says that the drum
was working all right when he visited the
machinery house in the morning, short
while before the explosion. The inspect
or assigns no reason for the accident; he
sa rs it was due to some inexplicable
reason that could not have been foreseen.
Despite this fact the inspector has formed
very decided opinion of the cause
but refuses to divulge it until he
has consulted with the governor.
The coroner's jury, if reports be true,
were not slow in fixing the blame. They
found the explosion was due to criminal
carelessness on the part of the officials of
the coal company. 1t 10 not known
whether or not criminal proceedings will
be instituted against the officials.
Mr.. Spears was interviewed, while lying
in bed, by New MEXICAN reporter this
morning. He said:
81 prefer that you wait until after I
have seen the governor as do not feel
at liberty to say much until 1 haze con-
suited with him. The explosion occurred
at 500 o'clock in the morning. The
fatalities attendant upon the explosion
were probably caused by the carelessness
of the men who were killed. There is a
question of where it occurred but the sup
position is that 1t occurred in entry s
and chamber 43. The fire boss went
through the mine and returned and re-
ported fire damp in chamber 43. He warned
the men not to go into the place until he
had again reported upon it. There was
some work to be done in chamber 40 and
DIES pite the warning of the fire boss, the
pit boss and number of men started for
chamber 40. 1t is supposed that one OF
the men struck a light and caused the ex.
plosion. The fan was running all right. II
required three hours to recover the
bodies of the killed and to rescue the In
jured as the after damp was terrible"

WHY Take the wabash

For ST. LOUIS?
Because it is the shortest line; the best
equipped line; runs free chair cars, Buffet
Pullmans and gives you ample time in
Kansas City for supper.
For TOLEDO OR DETROIT?
Because it is the shortest line; avoids
transfer across the city in case you are
going further east, and makes close con
nections with all trunk lines.
For NEW YORK or BOSTON?
Because it has solid through service
from both Chicago and st. Louis, via
NIAGARA FALLS; gives forty minutes
stop at the falls at seasonable time in the
morning.
FOR ALL OTHER EASTERN POINTS.
Because its service is uniformly gooc
and you can make no mistake in asking
for tickets VIA THE WABASH.

within seventy feet of the surface, al
though the we'll is not as yet cased. They
appear to mean business this time and
have ordered heavier tools for sinking
deeper. If artesian water is struck,

mile in depth, this is the sublimest OF

and Niagara would look scarcely larger

ANOTHER TOWN SITE.
Cochiti Strictly in It-A Third Town
Organized and Its Name

To the Editor Of the New Mexican.
Pine Canon, Cochiti District, Feb. "a
AT meeting called by the holders OF
claims il Pine canon the following reso
lutions were passed:
Resolved, That we organize townsite
company by electing M. F. Myers presi
dent and B. H. Shaw secretary pro tenn
that this company be known as the "Al.

coed to elect permanent officers.
Accordingly on motion the following

Geo. r. Bailey, treasurer; Fl. @. Green,
Edwin HERMAN, W. F. Grove, A. Korn-

This company has entered about 200
acres of the most desirable and beautiful
land lying in the most convenient quarter
of access to all the mines, and right in
the new discovery, and with such roads as
we have from Santa Fe, Cerrillos or Wal
lace loads can be got to and fro with
little trouble.
The miners of the district are indebted
to the Daily New MEXICAN for the enter
prise and the fairness it has shown in its
statements touching these new gold dis
coveries, and this debt of gratitude will
be increased by publication of the above
The MINERS.
STRUCK BIG THING.
DR.. Hermida, who has been south on a
business trip, returned last night. The
doctor brings an interesting story con-
corning Cochiti.I While in Wallace he met
James McCorkell, who is prospecting for
the Chicago Prospecting company. Mr..
McCorkell walked twenty-four miles to
Wallace where he took the train to Cerri-
Hos to purchase supplies, after which he
returned to Cochlt. Mr.. McCorkell has
struck wonderfully rich thing for his
company. He has staked claim that
runs 100 ounces silver and two ounces
gold to the ton. There has been no de-
velopment work done on the property,
but the vein is so extensive that it shows
over 100000 in sight. This statement
sounds like romance, but it has been veri-
fed by substantial proofs. Mr.. Nc
Corkell reports the business men of Al
buquerque very active in attempting to
capture the trade of the new district.
They have sent men into it, and are doing
all in their power to divert the channel of
trade their way. Santa Fe should be the
center of trade for Cochiti, but it will not
be unless the business men awake from
thelethargy which seems to enthrall them.
