Mining Notes

Tomorrow there will be fled with the.
secretary of the territory of New Mex
leo articles of Incorporation of the Lena
Mining and Concentrating company.
This is one of the several organizations
which have been put through by Prof.
Carrera since he has been operating
from Ell Paso. He. with several east
ern men, have purchased some very
valuable gold and copper mines in the
Shakespeare mining district near
Uordsburg. Some of the car loads OF
ore shipped from these mines have Civ
en- most satisfactory results on these
metals. the lowest netting $40 to the;
ton and the highest $50 to the ton, in
Guiding the gold, silver and copper
The district is quite an extensive one,
and nearby is located the famous Su-
perior and Dundee mines. Heretofore
1t has been difficult work to make these
ores profitable on account of the high
amount of SILICA contained IN the ore.
The difficulty, however, is now over
come by the erection of a large con-.
centrating plant on the spot This
means that h district will become a
prosperous and permanent camp.
The camp of Shakespeare is really
richly surrounded by enormous veins
that have already been developed to
great depth, and this development has
1hS VI
ore bodies, both in length and depth.
Therefore when this ore is made mar
ketable there will be a good many cars
of concentrates coming into Ell Paso
and swelling the business of the smell
ter to a considerable extent
Prof. Carrera recently visited PinOs
Altos camp in Grant county, nine miles
north of Silver City. This camp has
for the last thirty-fve years
large and valuable mines of ore. It is
understood that a large concentrating
plant will soon be installed there. The
Hearst estate is deriving a yearly in
of 500, 900 by the employment of
these modern appliances whereas the
former owners received but compare
lively little on account of their crude
methods of treating h ore. 1t is an
other evidence of the wisdom of con-
the ores to handle them with
profit and rapidity.

but when they got up to ST. Louis street
with it they found another line in the
way there. so they just drove back to
the plug and drove the engine over
the line.
The engine worked well until near.
the last when a fiue got to leaking, but
Engineer Samworth kept up the pres
sure until the fire was out, and it went
out in a remarkably short time after
the pressure was secured. Another
short delay. which occurred after the
stream had been started by the engine.
and which was heightened this morn
ing from about a minute to ten. was
caused by the disjointing of the hose
near the engine. This was repaired in
less than a minute, but in that time the
flames spread in length and width rap
idly and the excited crowd thought it
was at least ten minutes before the
stream resumed it's work on the fire.
The public wants too much. h
fire was under big Roadway when the
alarm was turned in, for a soon as the
whistle at the light plant blew b red
smoke that rolled upward from the fire
could be seen from any part of the
town. 1t was a big blaze in an old dry
building, but it was extinguished in a
short time. The volunteers RESPONDED
quickly and with good effect. Had Ell
Paso the fire department of some cities
OF even greater size, not only the New
Commercial, but several adjoining bull
aings would probably nave been in
ashes this morning.
Many wishes for the new engine were
heard last night. 1t will be here the
latter part of text month. 1t has a
hundred and twenty-five horse power
boiler. 1t is a piston engine instead of
a rotary as the old one is. n is of the
latest make with all modern improve
Iments The new one can raise steam
from cold water in four minutes and
from hot water in two minutes. Hot
| water will be kept in it
The old engine will be sent back to
the factory and will be overhauled Inc
given a new boiler. The new boiler
will be a seventy-five horse power and
the engine will be practically as good
as new. for every part will be taken out
and repaired or replaced.

The Work of the Fire Department.
The time between the turning in of
a fire alarm and the turning in of a
stream OF water upon the flames grows
in length a hundred times more rapidly
that the length of a fish which frees
itself from the hook and returns to its
submarine home. B~lowhardS on the
streets this morning are willing to bet
the drinks. and run the risk of standing
off the bartender. that it was half an
hour from the time of turning in the
alarm until the engine was at work
last night. They were willing to adj
nit that the fire was put out after the
fire engine got to york. but they want
to know why it was hauled around on
the streets half al hour before it was
fired mp and put TO throwing water on
the fire.
The truth OF the matter is that with
in seven minutes after the alarm was
turned in the engine was roaring like
IL cyclone and throwing a stream of
water on the fire with a pressure of $50
pounds to the square inch. The only
delay in getting the engine to work was
caused by a hose being laid in the way
of the engine. 1t was first stopped at
the corner OF Stanton and Texas streets
and steam was raised there. When the
men got ready to attach it to the plug
at h a corner they found hat the
chemical lose men had come along and
attached a hose to that plug and laid it
in such a way as to make it necessary
for the engine to be driven across it or
detach it from the plug. They did not
want to detach it as the stream was
wanted kept on the fire. 1t was thought
that il the engine was taken around the
block it could be placed in position at
the plug without driving over the hose.

Fire at Z o'clock last evening par
tally destroyed the New Commercial
hotel, a large two-Story structure oc-
cupying nearly a half block of ground
al the corner of st. Louis and Stanton
streets.
flames for q time spreading rapidly
throughout the northern and upper
portion of tn building.
T~hirty-eight out of the fifty-four
rooms were destroyed. entailing a loss
of perhaps $4,000 to the building and
81 500 to the furniture, bar fixtures, etc.
The fire broke out at almost exactly
the hour and on the same day of the
week as hat of the PierSon hotel last
month. 1t started somewhere in the
hallway on the upper 1oor and cut off
the exit of one ledger. penning him up
in his room. After seeing that escape
by the hallway was impossible, the
lodger swung himself out Of his win
dow, into h me court and chung
there until his hands were blistered,
calling Justify for help.
Fred Nymeyer, the proprietor of the
hotel, was crossing the courtyard to re-
move his family from the south wing
of the building when he was attracted
By the cries of the man hanging from
the window. He seized some rugs and
bedding and piling them up beneath the
man. directed him to loosen his hold
and drop. The man was badly fright
ened and refused to do SO. Mr.. Ny
meyer then secured a long scantling
and placed it in such a position that
the ledger was able to slide down it to
the ground. This incident was consid-
cred the most exciting one of the even
ing.
Burned Slowly.
The two streams of water-one at
the northeast corner of the building
and the other at the west side-were
kept playing on the fire and the swift
progress OF b conflagration was soon
checked. The firemen worked heroic
ally to ave the building and soon had
the fire under control and prevented
the spread of the flames to the southern
half of the hotel, which faces st. Louis
street, and contains several stores and
many elegantly furnished rooms.
The front or northern portion of
the building where the office and bar
is a complete scorched. water
soaked wreck today and all the furni-
ture therein vas ruined or consumed
except such as was carried out by the
firemen and assistants picked up on the
spot.
The furniture and bar fixture insu-
rance was 2 $500, which probably COW
ers the loss. Many guests lost every
thing they possessed.

A7CHISON WAS FIRM
In the Last Five Minutes II Suddenly
Reached Sc IA.
By Associated Press

By Associated Press
New York, Feb. 9.-Today's stock
market was free from sensational
movements, but was fairly active. 1t
was evident that realizing was going
on on liberal scale, especially in high
grade railroad stocks under cover of
the upward movement in some very
low priced stocks in both the railroad
and industrial lists. Among the can
didates for favor in this department
were Standard Rope, Leather, Mexican
National and some other stocks of sim
liar grade. which showed a continu-
ance of yesterdays strength.
Advances in Sugar Tobacco apd gen.
eral Electric also helped sustain the
market. Atchison was firm, and in the
last five minutes suddenly run up to
56A. At the same time Union Pacific,
preferred sold down sharply at 81.
Chicago and Eastern Illinois pushed
up 6A points, but reacted 2R points,
and Louisville and Missouri Pacific
were rather firm.
Steel stocks moved rather narrowly
and irregularly.
The railroad bond market was al
most unprecedentedly active. and
prices advanced more steadily than
those OF stocks. Low grade specula-
tive, or semi-sDeculative bonds have
been in largest demand. U. S. regis
tered 2's declined IA and 3's advanced
u Der cent.
The total sales of stock was $4,000
shares.

from the wooden goods market which
has not yet felt the expected stimulus
In this line, however, prices do not de-
cline and agents expect better condi
tions.
The large operations in the stocks of
leading steel companies do not affect
volume of business or prices of their
products as yet, and probably will
have no material influence in the fu-
ture. Quotations will depend on the
relation of supply to demand which al
present give an undertone of great
strength.
Activity continues in foot wear.
Jobbers are placing large contracts al
well sustained prices. The large num-
ber of buyers in the Boston market in
dicates that heavy contracts will be
placed.
The textile industry did not revive
appreciably, even the Oliver tempera.
ture failed to infuse life into woolens
aside from better retail dealings.
Manufacturers make small purchases
of raw material, showing preference
for the cheaper grades, and even in
;lsting on small concessions. Cotton
goods are uniformly dull.
Wheat fell below 80 cents, ample
snow affording the desired protection

advance of over cents compared with
