WELLS IN JAIL
One Of the Alleged Participants In
Shooting Affair

Assault to murder is the charge
against Charles Wells, who is locked
up in the Ell Paso county Jail. He was
arrested yesterday afternoon by Deputy
Sheriff Ed. Bryant, aud the charge
arises from a shooting scrape in the
and George Carlton were mixed up.
In the melee Wells was shot through
the left lung, and Carlton was shot in
the leg. Wells was taken to his home
in Austin to recuperate. and still bears
an ugly looking scar to show for his
encounter. Carlton was released at
his preliminary examin alton, and the
burden of proof seems to show that
Wells was the aggressor.
Thomas Christopher, former proprie-
tor of the Klondike, and the chief wit
ness to the shooting, is no longer in Ell
Paso, but Is rsilroading in central
Texas.

ALL ovfR THE WORLD
The Present c9al Famine Extends
Opening q the Captain Mines
aIIy,Opportune

The great de.Nand for coal, and the
consequent great success of the Captain
fields of the White Oaks are explained
by the fact that, there is at present a
definitely outlined coal famine all over
the world.
1t began IL England and the direct
cause is that the British government
has purchased 300, 900 tons within the
past two months, or since the COM
mencement of t. he war in South Africa.
This enormo Jus purchase was made
to supply all THE coaling stations of the
British navy, i'm case the threatened
complications with European powers
should culmlnate in an outbreak of ad-
ditionsl hostilifies.
The British government purchase
has so taxed the output of the coal
mines of Wales and Scotland that the
price has ad var ced.
In sympathy with the advance prices
have risen ink Pennsylvania owing to
the stoppsge of shipments to the Pa
cific coast from Great British and
Australia. q rders from California
have come SO fast that they are at
present refusiH " new deliveries before
