NeeIy's Business Enterprises.


Nicely. with the money he had secured
by embezzlement and fraud, began branch
ing out In several business enterprises. He
organized the West Indies Trading Com
pany for the purpose Of dealing in cocoa
nuts. in which he invested about $3.50
He also became interested in a brick manu-
featuring plant near Havana in which he
claims to have invested about $4,000. He
had some mining schemes in South Amer
lea, in company with one A. P. Taylor,
alias Philip Troutfetter. formerly of the
state of Colorado, who is said to be wanted
by the Pinkerton detective agency for q
crime committed in that state. c. NJ
Rich. who was brought to Havana from
Muncie by Nicely as his assistant chief
claims to have told General Rathbone In
April of this year that Nicely was crooked
RathbOne denies having had any such con-
versation with Rich. Rich claims to be In
nocent. but he at least had knowledge Of
Neely's entertainments long before he
claims to have told Rathbone Reeves. the
assistant auditor. in a statement confessed
to Inspectors Smith and Fosnes that Nicely
paid him $1,000 for concealing the fraud
In the destruction of stamps. Both Rich
and Reeves protest against any criminal
designs upon their part. How much credit
should be given their statements 1t Is diff
hcult to determine.
Provision for Director General
"On December p. 1898. f. G. Rathbone
was appointed director general of posts
At his earnest request the Postmaster Cen
eral on January 80. 1890, allowed him IS
per diem for expenses in addition to his
salary. Later on he claimed his salary
and per diem were not sufficient, and on
June 10 the Postmaster General, in re-
Spouse. wrote him that his salary should
be increased to $3.50 per annum, and that
with the compensation fixed at $500. the
per diem Of s. would cease On July g. in
answer to this letter. Ra thbone, in a COM
planning way. stated that this increased
his salary but s675. and indicated a very
earnest desire that a house be furnished
him as an official residence In reply TO
this letter the Postmaster General, on JuIy
T. wired him. VIII make full allowance for
house besides salary and on the sth wrote:
This means that It is our purpose that
provision shall be made for a suitable resi-
dence for you over and above the fxed
compensation OF $4,000
"On December 10 the Postmaster General
issued the order fixing the salary at "a 500
making It effective August l. The salary
OF the director general. therefore, was
from August 1, 1890. 1880 per apnum.
without per diem. In addition to the sal.
airy. he was provided with a house. The
records OF the department of posts show
that he continued to draw IS per diem IN
addition to the $500 a. salary. and when

SIX PRISONERS ESCAPE.
Silver City the Scene Of Another Large
Jail Delivery.

Six prisoners broke jail at Silver City
on Tuesday night. 1t Is only short
time ago that number of prisoners
made a successful dash for liberty.
Sheriff J. K. Blair and three of his dep
uties were at Santa Fe on Tuesday de-
livering seven prisoners to the peniten-
tiary to serve sentences. The prisoners
who scaped are named Brooks, Stevens,

for horse stealing. and was also held as
a witness in the Bowman & Son bank
robbery at Las Cruces. Bisbee and the
other two prisoners were in jail for MI
nor offenses. 1t Is not known how the

SIX FIGURING MILLS
An Important Industry That Should
Be Encouraged In Every County
In New Mexico.
FLOUR MILLS IN DONA ANA
A Very Fine Quality Of Wheat Is Raised
In Dona Ana 0ounty-0ne Large
FIGURING Mill Is Run Day
and Night,

The New Mexican to-day has the sat
isfaction Of exclusively printing de-
tailed information touching the number
extent and output Of the Touring mills
of the prosperous county Of Dona Ana,
New Mexico. The facts were carefully
gathered from original sources, and can
be relied upon as being accurate in all
respects.
There are at present six Touring
mills in Dona Ana county, with total
capacity of about 29O barrels of flour
per day. The first is situated at Iona
Parde; Is owned by Hopkins & Nor
power; and has a capacity Of about
forty barrels per day. The second Is at
Hatch; owner, L. Clapp: part roller and
part burr; steam power; daily capacity,
fifty barrels. There are two modern roll
Ter mills at Las Cruces. One is owned
by B. Lucero, Is operated by steam and
water power, and has capacity of six
ty barrels Of flour per day; and the 9TH
er is owned by Martin Lohman, Is oper-
ated by steam power, and has cepac-
lty of forty barrels per day A fifth mill
is located at Chamberino, and Is owned
by F. L. Oliver. 1t is burr plant, OPP
Grated by both water and steam, and
has capacity Of forty barrels. The
sixth in the list is located at Anthony.
1t is owned by Miller & Schumacher is
a modern roller mill, with steam power,
and has capacity of sixty barrels of
flour per day.
The wheat raised in Dona Ana coun-
ty is of superior grade, and the flour
produced from it by the roller mills
there Is equal to the best on earth. In
addition to the wheat consumed by the
local or county mills, considerable ship
ments Of wheat are each year made to
San Marcial, Socorro Albuquerque and
Belen.
Martin Lohman's fine roller mill at
Las Cruces has been in operation for
five years, and during the last three
years has been run day and night, new
er stopping except Sundays to clean
boilers. 1t will thus be perceived that
the twin industries of wheat raising and
-four making have grown to important
proportions in Dona Ana county. The
example Of the six enterprising and sue
cessful -four manufacturers mentioned
might we'll be emulated In nearly all the
sections Of the territory that are now
shipping in most of the flour they con-
sumo.
