First Social Event.
Special correspondence of the HERALD.
The ore chute on the Lucky is under
construction for dumping direct into
cars.
The ore chute at the Mamie Baird
is com pleted and ore is now loaded
from dump into cars on the spur.
Seven cars of ore are loaded on side
track waiting for sufficient to make up
train to go forward to Ell Paso.
John James, in charge of the dia-
mopd drill, returned yesterday from
several days visit with his family in Ell
Paso.
The diamond drill is down nearly 200
feet, and the hidden stories that 1t tells
are evidently satisfactory, for the work
of sinking still goes on.
The new depot. postoffice, and gener-
vision of Jerry Riley is we'll under way
and gives an assurance of the perman-
ency of our camp.
The reservoir tank is completed into
| which the water is emptied by gravity
| from the tank cars and then carried by
pipe line down to the depot and COM
missary building.
Rev. Mr.. Hyde, the Methodist Epis-
favored the camp with two visits, Ole
ing services, having an intelligent au-
| dience of some 30 odd people.
The north shaft on the Mamie
Baird is now down 100 feet ADD they
are drifting on the spur for ore bodies.
A frs. class within is now in place at
this shaft and work goes forward to
better advantage.
The ladies of the camp under the in
spirs tion of Mrs. II. S. Church have
organized general Sunday school
with thirty six children enrolled at
first meeting. Bob Black. acting
superintendent. and G. L. Black, as
secretary. 1t represents no creed or
ism, but is free for all. This speaks
volumes for new mining camp.
This camp extends friendly greeting
to the county officials of Otero county
now entering upon their duties at
Alamogordo and want them to bear In
mind that we must not be out OF MIND
because we are out of sight. We are
in the game to stay, holding full hand
with due consideration and spprecia-
ton for Jack pots. We have 40 children
of scholastic age and want school
district anC a good teacher and to this
end are now at work on q $500 school
house.
Under the inspiration of Mrs. 81. S.
Church, assisted by Mrs. Pat Mark
ham, Mrs. Lew Cowen. Mrs. W. B.
Bibos, Mrs. Charles Pearce. Mr.. G. F.
Dunn. Mrs. J. L. Taylor. Mrs. b. l..

able and profitable ice cream social
was held last evening inthe commissary
dining hall to raise funds toward
securing an organ for the Sunday
school. An attendance of $50 bright
smiling contented happy faces was
sight to behold for this new infapt
wonder mining camp. The cake con-
tributed by the ladies was of all kinds
and colors and the way
it disappeared was evidence of
its quality. The children were
first served to cream and cake after

WHEAT MARKET STUPID
SMALL DEMAND WITH PRICES MAR
ROW AND UNCHANGED FOR GRAIN.


CHICAGO, July 11.-Midsummer dullness
prevailed on the Board OF Trade to-day and
fluctuations in all commodities were narrow
in consequence. Wheat closed unchanged.
corn unchanged. oats sc lower and pro-
visions 5Q10c higher.
September wheat opened about 1sc lower
at 727sQ73 sold between 72s4c and 721zc and
closed unchanged at 73c. Fair weather in
the wheat belt and continued large primary
receipts caused a degree of uneasiness at
the start and a decline occurred at the
opening. The decline was soon recovered.
There was irregular buying by the less
confident shorts, who feared the influence
of the Russian crop failure. fresh con-
firmatory news of which was received to-
day, and the absence Of selling pressure OF
note was sufficient to sustain prices. The
market, however, was exceedingly narrow
and price changes small until afternoon.
when trade broadened out somewhat. Brad
street reported 17SOO0 bushels decrease in
the worlds visible supply and reports were
received Of damage to Wisconsin's spring
wheat. 1t was also reported that 100000
bushels of spring wheat had been sold at
Toledo yesterday. Buying which followed
this news advanced the price to the high
est point OF the day, 1870. But the i'm
preston that the Toledo report was an ex-
aggeration gained a foothold later. as no
confirmatory news was received and slow
decline followed, shorts cautiously resum-
ing selling. The seaboard reported twen-
ty-six loads taken for export. Receipts at
primary points were sS5, 900 bushels, COM
pared with 125,000 bushels last year. North
west receipts were 657 cars, against 40 last
year. Chicago receipts were thirty-one cars,
1--WE of contract. Trade became dull again
toward the close and the pit at times was
half empty, with the easiness usually the
feature of narrow trading;
Corn was dull, but fairly steady. The
market was almost entirely sympathetic,

The Monon and the Southern.

A statement attributed to an official source
is given out at Chattanooga, which throws
sqSne light on recent reports of pending
consolidation Of the Southern and the Louis
vile & Nashville Railroad companies. 1t l.
said and believed in railroad circles that
the Louisville & Nashville is not being con-
sidered in the negotiations that are now
pending but that the Southern and Monon
will absorb and control the Cincinnati South
ern. The inference Is left that the deal Is
not far from being closed, according to q
Chattanooga dispatch. A Louisville railroad
man. who is close TO the Monon manage
ment when asked concerning the repor'
from Chattanooga. confirmed the story and
said the Monon would soon be merged with
the Southern. and that President McDoel
would hold much more important position
with the company than he now holds.

OLD TREATY RENEWED
BASIS OF THE STORY ABOUT THE
PENNSYLVANIA AND CENTRAL.
Division Of Territory and an Agree
ment to Maintain Rates-RumOr
Concerning the MOnon.

The statement was made at New York
yesterday that the reported compact be-
tween President Galloway. Of the New York
Central and President Cassatt, OF the Penn
sylvania. is I'm reality a renewal of former
treaty agreeing on territorial limits in New
York State and Pennsylvania for the two
properties and their branches. This agree
ment was made about the time OF the lease
OF the Rome, WATERFOWL & Ogdensburg by
the Central and where the Pennsylvania Is
about to fit out its bra nch called the North
ern Central, with terminals at Sodus Point,
on Lake Ontario, for freight and passenger
business OF the great ;a6es. The recent ex-
pansion OF the Vanderbits through the
Beech Creek and Fail Brook lines. and into
Pittsburg. was in violation OF this agreement.
TIE Herald states that the real significance
of the agreement made in New York was
q new treaty and division OF territory, which
will put an end to the growth of the North
ern Central branch in Pennsylvania
An officer OF the Pennsylvania who Is In
q position to know all about 1t makes the
following statement:
''The officials of the two roads have come
TO SIN agreement by which there shall be
no cutting OF freight and passenger rates
by either road, and both roads will do what
they can, which = about what they please,
TO prevent the cutting Oh IrelSnt anu pas
senger rates by other trunk lines. The un-
Outstanding arrived at is probably the most
important railroad deal that has been made
in years. The meaning of 1t is that hence
forth all the trunk lines will be able to
make some money and pay dividends, in
stead. as is the case with some of them, of
having a mighty hard time to keep afioat.
II Is true that w. K. Vanderbilt is a
large holder OF Pennsylvania stock, but so
Is he a large holder of Delaware, Lacka-
wanna & Western. He Is not, however.
the largest individual holder OF Pennsyl-
vania-"
+. Ii appears from the statement made by
the same official that w. K Vanderbilt has
been giving close attention to the matter
OF both freight and passenger rates ever
since he assumed active management Of the
New York Central in consequence of the
serious illness of Cornelius Vanderbilt. He
early made up his mind that the Central
and the Pennsylvania by making common
cause could put an end to the disastrous
rate cutting which was running business.
1t has been decided that in future rates
made by general freight agents must be ap-
proved by the higher. officials, and that the
presidents OF both lines shall have more TO
do with the making Of these rates than ever
before.

Tranic officials OF lines interested in In
