This morning J. w. Fisher received a
letter from H. NJ. Flagler's secretary
stating that there was no truth in the
report that he was going to establish
system of hotels in Mexico.
The letter was in reply to one from
Mr.. Fisher recommending the scheme
He says he advised Mr.. Flagler to car
ry out the plan and assured him that
he would make % per cent on every
dollar thus invested. Mr. Fisher has
been hearty supporter of the scheme
since the first rumor came out. He
says that six or eight good hotels in
Mexico would pay well and would be
of incalculable benefit to Ell Paso.
1t is still believed that Mr.. Flagler
proposes putting nthe hotels and does
not want too much said about it until
definite arrangements have been made
There have been a number of letters
received here about the scheme and
they came from Mr. Flagler's employees
and are naturally supposed to have
been written at his direction.
