THE CATTLE COMBINE
The Pool May Include CochiSe
 County Holdings

It is reported that the Censclidstsd Cattle Company who are to control the large cattle interests of Texas and New Mexico have also cast their eyes toward Arizona and will endeavor 10 incorporate many of the lager Ari- Z Z)na cattle concerns into the mann moth pool. As the largest cattle owners of the territory have thtir tig herds in Cochise county and the further fact that the ranges would be practically adjoining those in New Mexico, on which options are already secured, color is lent the theory that the proposed combination will also operate in this territory and have bo'dipge in this county. Should the company embrace large individual cattle holders ard companies in this county leo, ,0G0 cattle could be easily included in the deal and clear range to the adjoining holdings ip New Mexico be gained thereby. It Is understood negotiations are now on and an effort being made to carry the plans into efirct. As the matters ot the company now stand nothing less than the rourd-up of G00,CO0 head 0. cattle on ranches in :he pan handle district of Texas and New Mexicuis contemplated by the pro- mo;ers of the prcposed Consolidated Company.
 The cattle business during the last lew years has furnished enormous profits to ranchmen and breeders. Atpreseut the prices for cattle on the Chicago market ere higher than they have been during any summer in the last twenty years. The feeding con- di'ions on the ranches are a'so Letter than they have been for scyeral yee:s, aud altogether the chances are favor able that with the formation Of the cattle pool the Arizona interests may be found included.
