THIRTY-FlvE CARS
Will be Required to Bring the
Plant in Sections from
the Factory to the
Mine.

a deal in which all the largest min
ing machinery houses in the United
States were entered in competition has
just been closed and the parties who
closed it are stopping at the Sheldon
MOTEL. The transaction covers the in
stallation of one of the biggest plants
Tor teaching low grade ores ever put in
by any of the mining machinery COM
panies of this country and the biggest
ever sent across the Rio Grande into
the republic of Mexico.
The cost of the machinery and in
stallation will be upwards of 5000, 900.
1t will require So railroad cars to trans
port the machinery in sections from
this country to Parral, its destination
When completed and in readiness for
operation it will have a capacity for the
treatmen of 100 to 120 tons of low
grade ore every "a hours.
The property on which this big plant
will be installed is well known to the
mining men of this country and Mex
leo as The Refugio.' 1t is located near
Parral on what is known as the Vita
Grande dixie. and is one of the best
Its output mas only been limited ac-
cording to the number of men en-
ployed, but at the present time it is
producing upwards OF $780, 600 month,
Mexican money
The owner of it is Angel Garcia.

On account of the lack of facilities for
handling the low grade ores more at
tention has been given to the ores car
rying smelling values. Realizing the
necessity for getting the values out of
the low grade ores which are said to be
almost inexhaustible Angel Garcia de-
cided TO install a plant that would take
care of it in large quantity.
Bids were asked for and representa-
tives of all the mining supply houses
in this country hurried to Parral. The
contest was a close and bitter one but
the big machinery house of Frazer &
Chalmers of Chicago won out
They bad an agency in the firm of
Fogerty & Dickinson at San Luis Poto-
81 and from the moment when bids
were called it is said that one OF these
two hustling Americans always lived
with Angel Garcia. A few days ago
knut Posse, at one time a resident of
FL Paso, but now the engineer for the
firm of Frazer & Chalmers, passed
through here on his way to Mexico
The object of his trip was to assist the
local agents OF the firm at San Luis
Potosi in gathering in the contract Mr.
Posse and Mr.. Fogerty returned from
their trip yesterday and are jubilant
over their big success.
The next step will be fierce COM

1t is an interesting fact that, what
ever the reason may be. life insurance
is much more popular In the United
States than in any other country. In
proportion to their numbers the Amer.
lean people carry twice as much life
insurance as the Britishers. five times
as much as the Germans and eight
times as much as the French.
This is partly explained by the large
number of American policies issued to
serve other purposes than mere provi.
sion for the families Of the insured
The scope Of what may be called busi'
ness as distinguished from family In
surance is constantly enlarging. A nov
ell and interesting recent development
OF it is the insurance Of the lives OF
Protestant ministers for large sums
which are made payable at their deaths
to their churches.-New York World.
