Rumor That the War once Il Holding
Back a Dispatch from Butler.
LONDON, Jan. "a, a. m.-Seven days Of
fighting have left the main Boer position
intact and General Buffers army 7O6
weaker. according to the Official casualty
lists. which. seemingly. do not include the
Spion kop losses. as those last forwarded
do not mention General Woodgate's wound
ing.
England is possessed by a depressing
sense OF failure. although not a word in
criticism of her generals and soldiers is
uttered. Not much effort is MADE to place
a happy construction upon General Buffers
ment from Spion kop. and there is an un-
easy impression abroad that worse news is
yet to come.
At one'of the military clubs tonight the
statement passed from one member TO an
other that the War Office had received an
unpleasant supplementary dispatch from
General builers WnlCn was being held up
for twelve hours.
Spencer Wilkinson. In the Morning Post,
writes as follows OF the Spion Aop loss:
'aThis is serious matter. and an attempt
will not here be made to minimize il. for no
greater wrong can be done to our people at
home than mislead them about the signifi-
canoe OF the events OF the war; The right
way is 20 tell the truth as far as we know
IT."

thing is wrong with the cables. The break
on the east coast lines has been repaired
but the cable between San Thome and

here as to the way to break the Boer re-
distance. Mr.. Wilkinson regrets that Gen.

Special to The News:
CHICAGO, July l2.-Today, up

A GREAT THING

A Big Mineral Exhibit There Would be an fye-
Opener to Capitalists.

Opener to Capitalists.
While a mineral exhibit is be-
ing gotten out for the Ell Paso
Chamber of Commerce, would it
not be good scheme to prepare
one for the Chaves county fair to
be held at Roswell in October?
This fair is to be union ex-
hibit for the counties of Chaves,
Eddy and Lincoln, and since the
mining industry is by far the
most important interest in Lin
coin county we should have an
excellent mineral exhibit there,
representing every resource of
mineral in this county, which is
a commonwealth of mineral unto
itself. White Oaks, being the
mining center and having great
er development than any other
district, should look well to the
preparation of an exhibit for this
fair.
The EAGLE has before urged
the necessity of united effort
along these lines of public inter
est, and the reader will readily
agree that great good may be
accomplished by the sending of a
well selected representative ex-
hibit of minerals, not only from
the entire county, but from each
respective district.
This question of public inter
est that appeals to the citizen, no
matter whether engaged in min
ing or what not. Anything that
will advance the prosperity, and
stimulate business in the COM
munity, as a whole, must certain
ly add to the personal interests of
the individual.
Many people who will visit this
fair know nothing of the infinite
mineral riches of the White Oaks
country, and there is nothing so
convincing as seeing. Seeing is
knowing" and should the mining
districts of this county put a
representative collection of min.
erals on exhibition at this fair il
will be like casting bread upon
the waters it will be heard from,
from many sections of the coun'
try, and will surely be a most ef'
fective means of bringing capita
here for investment.
People talk about what they
see, those who visit the Chayes
county fair will come for the pur.
pose of seeing, and many of then
for business motives alone, who
expect to profit by what they dc
see. A fair is instituted for thC
purpose of showing the resources
conditions, advantages and op
portunities of the country repre-
sented, and are followed up by in

that they may see in the aggre
gate the resources of many local.

LIBERAL, Kas., July 11.-This
morning the Chicago, Rock Island
and Pacific corps of surveyors
started overland west to begin the
preliminary survey on the propos-
ed extension of the Rock Island
south and west into the New Mex
leo territory, with connection to
White Oaks or Carrizozo, close to
White Oaks, where the Ell Paso
and Northeastern railroad is now
completed.
There is some doubt whether
the desired grade can be had
directly through White Oaks,
and it may be necessary to swerve
around that camp, the engineers
understand. The line would in
that event start from Carrizozo,
where the stages leave for White
Oaks, or perhaps few miles east
ward toward Walnut. Captain is
not considered a point from which
to extend; the route via the camp
being more difficult.
The outfit consists of Chief En-
gineer w. D. Worral, 10 men and
and 5 wagons. Engineer Worral
says that he had orders to begin
work 100 miles west of Liberal,
at the end of the old survey and
run line to Clayton, New Mex.
ico. Further than this he has nc
official word. He expects to re-
ceive orders at Clayton. Mr.,
Worral believes that the prelimi
nary survey will be made from
Clayton to White Oaks and as
soon as the first survey is made
the grade stakes will be set an(
the grade work vigorously push
ed. He anticipates stay in tha
country of about 10 months. While
the chief engineer was unable tt
tell anything official, he agrees
with the public sentiment tina
the prospective extension is nov
assured. From the interview
secured from the officials at thi;
place, everything portends a nev
road for the great Southwest.
In consequence of the movemen

ROCkISLAND COMING
THROUGH WHITE OAKS!
An Agreement Between the Rock Island and f.
Pan. f. to Connect Immediately.

once a thought of acquiring the
Texas & Pacific line west from
Ft. Worth, but the idea was
abandoned and we no longer need
or seek that route, since we have
the chance given us to get
through business desired without
buying line and by building an
extension through a fine stock
country that will furnish a pay
ing local business. We are not
going to build to El paso, but
have an agreement to go to
common point, presumable Clay
ton, New Mexico, where we will
interchange business with the Ell
Paso & Northeastern, which will
be constructed to that point. The
matter is simply a traffic arrange
ment, mutually satisfactory, by
which passenger and freight
business will be handled as if by
one line and the proceeds divided
in the way usual to connecting
lines.
Our wide reaching lines ex-
tending into Colorado, Wisconsin,
Minnesota, South Dakota, Hi
nois, Missouri, Nebraska, Iowa,
Kansas, Texas and Indian Terri
tory will carry business to south
western Texas, Mexico and the
Pacific coast through the gateway
of Ell Paso as the spout of fun
mel carries from the spreading
mouth. We will not have track
age rights, but our freight cars
will run over the connecting line
and theirs over ours, and through
sleeping cars between Chicago or
Kansas City to Ell Paso and per-
haps to the City of Mexico and
California will be run. No, we
are not planning to absorb the Ell
PasO & Northeastern railway.
1t is not for sale; it is a paying
line and has not been offered to
us. But Mr.. Parker went iutO
that territory months ago and saw
the situation in regard to El Paso,
the advantage of entry there and
the outlets from that mart. The
agreement to build to a common
point was virtually completed sew
eral weeks ago as the direct result
J of the efforts of President Chas.
B. Eddy of the Ell Paso line, who
came here with c. B. Simpson, of
New York, large stock holder
in the line from Ell Paso to Capt.
tan. Their road has made a
wonderful record for the first year,
by reason of local resources. The

BRYAN WAS MUCH SHOCKED
He Said He Hoped Democrats Would
Not Let Excitement Lead
Them to- Violence.

BOSTON, Jan. 31.-At the close of the
reception in his honor, given by this
Democratic state committee III Faneui
nall, William j. Bryan was shown the
dispatch announcing that Senator Goe
bel, of Kentucky, had been shot. MIR
Bryan made the following statement:
1T is shocking, shocking. | trus
that the shot will not prove fatal. Mr.
Goebel made great fight against fierce
opposition, and feeling was wrought uI
to high pitch, but had no thought of
assassination being resorted to. 1t prob.
ably was the individual act of some
bitter political opponent. | cannot as
sumo or believe that any considerable
number of Republicans or anti-Goeoel
Democrats would counsel or excuse such
an act.
ST sincerely hope the Democrats viii
not allow excitement or resentment &c
lead them to acts of violence. We can
afford to permit the Republicans to Ell.

the law"

Orders were issued to outside COM
panies throughout the state to make
ready at once to come TO Frankfort, the
entire state guard being called into SER
vice. 1t was feared that the news OF
the shooting would so infiame the
Democrats that they would come to
Frankfort in swarms. while the noun
taineers would lose no time i'll coming
to tho capitol for the purpose of up
holding their party principles.
1T makes no difference TO me-" said
General Collier, 'who starts anything,
we will preserve order on both sides. .
The excitement among the followers
OF Mr. Goepel was great, and, for a
short time Immediately following the
shooting of their leader, there was more
than possibility that some OF the hot
heads would seek vengeance upon their
political enemies. Threats were made
against Republican leaders and aGtor-
neys during the excitement, but the
leading Democratic members OF the
house and senate soon brought them TO
calmer talk.
