THROUGH TO ST. LOUIS
In Forty-tWo Hours by the Train
the Texas & Pacific May Put On.

1t is reasonably certain now that the
Texas & Pacific will not resume the
running of the Pacific Coast Limited
trains In connection with the Souther q
Pacific, but as Q substitution, 1t is be-
lieved that the cannon ball now run
ming out of st. Louis to Ft. Worth in
in twenty-four hours will be extended
all the way to Ell Paso.
A railroad man from eastern Texas
who ia well posted stated that General
Passenger and Ticket Agent =. P.
Turner of the Texas and Pacific is re-
sponsible that this train will be put
Cd.
AS soon as the Southern Pacific new
schedule is announced, this through
Texas and Pacific train to st. louis
will be put on to make close cOnnec-
tion here with the S. P. east and west
bound. The present trains will be con-
tinued to Big Springs to take
care of local traffic, and the
canon ball will stop only
probably at Midland, Toyah, Pecos,
and Sierra Blanca, and will thus be
enabled to cover the distance from
here to Fl. Worth in perhaps twenty
hours, instead of twenty-five as at pre-
sent. This would make a through line
to ST. Louis in AZ hours, aud, with
close connections there for Chicago.
would prove an ideal fast line to the
east.
The train out of St. Louis to Fit.
Worth is a vestibule train with all the
luxuries of modern ira vel, and would
be so continued to Ell Paso. Out of
ST. Louis, it goes over the Iron Noun
tain to Texarkana, where it is carried
over the T. and P. to FIT. Worth.

FAIRvIEw, Oct. 17.-Train No. 33 OF
this date, loaded with special time
freight and bananas for Los Angeles
and San Francisco, was derailed 10
Dead Mans cut miles west of Will
liams on the Williams mountain at 1.3O
O'Clock this morning.
The wreck was caused by the break
knuckle of the coupler dropping be-
tween the guard rail aud main track
OF high trestle bridge.
Seven cars of goods consisting of dry
good p, boots and shoes, laces, millinery
of all description, and drugs were piled
in & i1discri innate mass in the mar
row cut, and so mingled with broken
tim bers, car tracks and other debris
that it required the work Of 50 men for
nearly II hours to clear the wreck
age.
Freight Agent N. J. Hudson from
Williams with a corps of check clerks
took charge of the checking and trans
fer of the goods.

Fortunately therelwere no train men
on the wrecked cars and no casualties

ing. Soon big shipments will be COM
ing to Ell Paso.
The Ell Paso & Northeastern railway
company, says the Alamagordo News,
has some twenty farms OF 100 acres
each, and portion of these are being
devoted to celery culture. The farms
are located in the Sacramento mount
aims, and the center Of the celery belt
is Cloudcroft.
Experienced celery growers have
been employed, which will insure the
msrketa BILE condition of the product
The Gel cry is packed in boxes con-
tanning twelve dozen punches OF one
dozen stalks each. Each box is stem
ciled "Cloudcroft Celery" The rail-
road company supplies the boxes from
the Alamogordo sawmill, and when the
celery is packed in these the package
makes very neat and inviting ap-
pearance.
Caulif1ower is also a product that
will be cultivated to large ex-
tent.
The latest improved machinery for
hillin z and cultivating is being used on
the company farms, and at the present
estimate the sale of the celery per
acre will amount to no less than $3.50.
One man, in addition to his other farm
duties, should care for not less than
two and one half acres. That would
bring him in about $3.50 per acre.
Next years. shipments for Cloudcroft
will amount to fully $4,000 dozen
bu inches of celery. About 1000 dozen
can be raised to an acre in q season.
The celery will be shipped from Cloud
croft, which point is within easy &C
cess of all farms in the Cloudcroft
country.

Trade With The Philippines.

The open-door policy proposed for the

be admitted ON the same footing as
those of the United States. The treaty
guarantees this. The treaty does not
provide for an open-door policy admit
ting other nations ito privileges. When
California was taken and latter coded
the courts held that the import and ton
mage laws in vogue in the United States
must prevail in the territory acquired.
1t became a part of the United States
and as there was nothing distinctly
stipulated in the treaty regarding CON-
merce 1T became instantly bound and
privileged by the laws which congress
has passed to raise a revenue from the
duties on imports and tonnage" The
same condition prevails as to the Phil
ippines. When civil rule Is established

be as free between the islands and the
United States as internal m is
in this country. No duties will be
placed upon goods from the islands, un-
less by a constitutional amendment ex-
empting them from the operation of the
provision that 'all duties, imposts and
excuses shall be uniform throughout the
United States"
If the courts hold that the tariff laws

country but Spain, for ten years, and
the United States can ship goods to the
islands free of import duty. This should
operate to the benefit of the United

developed its products will largely be
sold in Asia, while its people will buy
American made goods. The balance of
trade should be in favor of the United
States.

Forestry knowledge.

1t is intended to educate them not to

courage them to plant forests and to
teach the best varieties of timber to Gull

States should instruct pupils of the evil
results of needless forest devastation
and the wisdom of replenishing timber
used in the past. In the course of time
sentiment would be formed which would
result in legislative methods for pre-
serving or renewing forests, without

d. & r. G.. EARNINGS.
DENVER News.)


The New York Journal of Finance
advances the opinion that Denver & Ric
Grande preferred, which is now a A per
cent stock, is likely tic become a full 6
per cent stock if present earnings con-
tinue. The company's September state
ment shows that in that month it
earned a surplus, over all charges, of
$165, 1893, which was an increase of $34,-
219 owe the month Of September, 1898.
AT that rate the net earnings this year
would be 81, 946, 716. The dividend on the
preferred stock of $23, $50, 900 outstand-
ing at 4 per cent is $946, 600, which would
leave a balance of 81, O18, ZIG.
But the stock is entitled to 5 per cent
dividends, which would require s 1,1S2,-
900 on the stock outstanding, or 81, AGO.
900 on the entire issue of $2S,0 600, 900. In
either event there would still remain a
surplus at the end Of the year of from
1854, ia to 1882, 716, a margin large
enough to allow for ordinary f1uctua-
tons of earnings during the final quar-
ter of the year. As the latter is the most
active of all in the item of mining
freights-supplies in and ores out to the
smelters-a decided gain may be looked
for. Owing to its extensive system and
it's close relation to the large mining
camps, the Denver & Rio Grande al
ways reflects the material condition. of
the state.

Wool Sales,

Last week broke the records of sales
of wool in the big markets of the coun-
try, $4,000, 900 pounds changing hands.
The demand comes from the mills, the
stock on hand having been exhausted.
New Mexico wool growers received lots
of money from the sale of the clip this
year. Nothing can lower the selling
price materially except a repeal of the
tariff, because the demand will increase
as rapidly as production can be aug
mented. The extent of the demand may
be judged by remembering that al
though New Mexico is one of the largest
wool producers. the product of the ter
ritory, if sold altogether last week,
would not have supplied the big mar
kets. The man who goes into the sheep
business now has a pretty sure thing"

Industries Needed.

The need of large and small industries
in the prosperous towns of New Mex
leo is sorely felt. There is no doubt that
in time the territory will have several
manufacturing c%enters, but the time
should be FASTENED by judicious adver-
tisement. Thus far the main effort has
been to interest capital in the mining
resources and the transportation needs
Of the territory. Something should now
be- done to convince capitalists of the
immense advantages for manufactures
in certain lines. For instance, the
United States imports annually $3S, 000,-
600 worth Of salts of soda, yet New
Mexico possesses inexhaustible beds of
soda which might be marketed and sup
ply the world at cheaper prices than at
the present, and yet leave the manufac-
turers a handsome profit. The gypsum
fields, the alum fields, the iron mines,
the coal mines, the wonderful adapta-
bility of the soil to sugar beet culture,
should all draw manufacturers this
way, and small industries, too, could be
carried on at a profit in the territory.
while in the more populated states they
are crushed out of existence by trusts.
For instance, Gallup wants an iron
foundry, which would a we'll, nc
doubt. Some other points would be adj
v~antageous for the location of wooden
mills, while furniture factories would
undoubtedly be a good investment in
some localities. Canning factories,
creameries and "a score of other small
industries could successfully be built up
in New Mexico, provided capital, ener-
gy and brains go together in making in
vestments.

GROWING Shipments.

The growth of trade with countries
across the Pacific ocean is indicated by
the increase of the shipments owe the
line of steamers the Santa Fee company
put on last year.
In his address to the stockholders
President Ripley said: Our oriental
business is steadily increasing, and is
still limited only to the carrying ca
pacity Of our San Diego fleet. We began
with three ships, and now have five.
We could use more. W~est-bound every
ship is loaded to it's capacity with cot
ton and merchandise. 1t is generally
supposed that east-bound business is
the more valuable, because it is as
sumed to carry higher rates. This is
not the case. Some of II west-bound
business carries higher rates than the
east-bound business. 1t is all very prof

THE WOOL CLIP OF 1899.
Denver TimeS.)

According to the estimate made by
the national association of wool grow
ers, the wool clip of the year will
amount to a total Of 272, 1871, $50 pounds,
of which about s per cent is pulled and
the balance wool in the grease. When
secured the equivalent shows a product
of 113, 95S, 46S pounds, against III, 661 ,5S1
in 1898, and about the same amount in
1897, The average weight is put down
at SAG pounds. Montana, Oregon, Wyo-
ming, Idaho, Texas, Ohio, California,
New Mexico, Utah and Colorado are all
credited with a field Of over TO- O0, 900
pounds, running in the order named
here, with Montana in the lead with
p, 1897, S54 pounds, and u own state
with 10, 1875, 175. The highest average
yield per head is given to Washington,
which is given S.5 pounds. Colorado
is set down at SIS pounds. While the

in excess of this date last year, yet an
advance in price is noted in the last

A Mining Exhibit Al Paris.

New Mexico should have a good min

would be a sound business proposition,
not merely sentiment, for the people to
spend some money and time in getting
such an exhibit together. Colorado is
not leaving the opportunity slip by to
give a glimpse of its mineral exhibits
to the 60, 900, 900 well-to-do people who
are expected TO visit the fair, and
among whom will be most of the capt.
talists OF the world, who are constantly
looking for good Investments. New
Mexico certainly can make as good a
mineral display as Colorado, and as the
territory is less known than the Cen.

a better advertisement than one would
be for Colorado,

it is not likely that anything farther
