REGULATIONS WE'RE VIOLATED.

The Civil Service Reform Association intends TO
contest the recent promotions to police CaptaiuCes
which Were made by the old Foard of Police Com
missioners just before they legislated out Of

there was any complaint to ratings made by the
old board and any trouble arising from disputes

KING EDWARD
MORTALlY JILL
The Disease However Has Not Yet
Reached a Definite or Danger
GUS Phase.
MAY NEVER Be CROWNED
Old Women's Yarns About Soothsayer
Who Prophesied That Queen Alexandra
Would Not Live to Be Crowned
Queen Of Great Britain.

London, Oct 2S.-There is clearly
defined impression in the diplomatic
corps that King Edward is threatened
with some organic complaint. Some
go so far as to say it is cancer or
Bright's disease, or both. Probably
whatever ailment may threaten him,
it has not reached definite or danger
Gus stage, else he would be quite un-
able to keep up his incessant round of
public duties and private pastimes
with the regularity and zest which he
continues to display. However, there
is undoubtedly very alarming pre-
monition in court circles, especially
among the women, that the king will
never live TO be crowned; which, base
less or otherwise, is having a serious
effect on trade. The favorite story in
this connection now current is that a
palmist told Queen Alexandra not long
ago that she would never live to be
crowned.

NEW MEXICO NINE NOTES.
A Mine Deal in the White Oaks District
and in Water Canon.

Wayne Vanschoch, who is interest
ed in several good mining claims in the
White Oaks district, has purchased an
eighth interest in the Compromise mine
from H. c. Cary. The consideration Is
private. The Compromise mine must
be considered a bonanza, when an in
terest may be sold at most at any time
for a handsome sum, when it is known
that the property is now in litigation
as to ownership, and the case will
come on for trial at the December sit
ting of the Socorro district court.
At Organ work has begun on the
Torpedo mines new shaft. This shaft
will be sunk 500 feet in more solid for
nation. A Knowles pump will be in
stalled. The camp of Organ and the
Modoc mine are now connected by tel
ephone with the outsiie world, the new
telephone line being completed.

COAL BY THE MILLION TONS.
Coal Mine Inspector 10 E. Sheridan Talks
of The Coal and Other Wealth of
San Juan County.

Jo E. Sheridan, United States inspec-
tor of the coal mines for New Mexico,
was in the city today in return from an
official visit to coal mines in San Juan
county and at Monero, in Rio Arriba
county. This was his first visit to San
Juan county, ami he is of the opinion
that that section is one of the best in the
territory The supply of coal there is
practically inexhaustible. w. H. Thomas
is working few men on 40-foot vein
of excellent coal on the La Plata river,
about two and half miles from La
Plata postoffice and about 20 miles north
of Pennington. Thomas Eavens also
works q few men on o 15-foot vein on
the right bank of the San Juan river,
about two miles from Fruitland There
is coal nearly everywhere along these
rivers, but owing to the fact that San
Juan county has no railroad connections
and that the winters in the county are
very mild, the coal development is very
small and little work is going on. The
| fruit crop In San Juan county was eX-
cellent this year and a great deal OF 1t
was sold in the early part of the season
at cent per pound on the trees. Those
| who held on for better prices got a
cents per pound, and all kinds OF fruit
are now selling at 2 cents per pound.
The Hyde Exploration company was one
of the principal purchasers. The sur
vey of the Colorado & Gulf railroad
| through San Juan county is being COM
pleted. People are prosperous and the
county has the best water supply that
Mr.. Sheridan has seen anywhere in Now
Mexico, and he has travelled over the
territory great deal.
At Monero, in Rio Arriba county, Mr..
Sheridan found the coal mines in good
condition and doing fair business. A
miner was killed in shaft by an accl-
dent on September "a last
Mr.. Sheridan will leave for Madrid
this evening to make an inspection OF
the coal mines situated in that vicinity.

ton of the artillery corps, saying IT

ington. He believes in the former reg
mental organizations. Speaking OF the

the army reorganization law, he says
no injury resulted, and in the main
the law has been beneficial.
Miles states his objections to the
MANAGEMENT of military affairs IN the
war department at the city OF wash
ington He says: II recommend thaJ
decentralization be effected as far as
possible and all proper lawful authori-
tv be restored to subordinate COM
manders who are provided with eff
cient organization and who can be
safely entrusted with the responsibility
for the efficient and faithful admins
tration of military affairs commensu-
rate with their important commands.
Miles recommends the establishment
of a military post in southern Califor-
MIA. also the establishment of a war
college in the city of Washington.

ton and services of the United states

All Trains Entering Auburn.

Auburn, N. Y, Oct. 2S.-The officials
of Auburn prison today began final
preparations for the, execution of Leon
F. Czolgosz Warden Mead has selec-
ted his assistants from among the
prison employees who had the widest
experience in executions. 1t is expect
ed that the prison officials will use
every precaution to prevent Czolgosz
talking in the death chamber, it being
their desire that anything he may wish
to say be said in the condemned cell.
The prisoner apparently does not de-
sire to see anyone and he declines to
talk, except in monosyllables. Tonight
at 6 o'clock, after the death warrant
has been read, an extra guard will be
maintained in the cell with Czolgosz.
The extra guards on duty at the prison
gates will be maintained until after
the execution. The police keep close
watch on all trains entering the city.

being constructed west of Ell Paso across
New Mexico and Arizona, was Saturday
enioined by the Southern Pacific from
crossing a New Mexico mountain defile
near the Texas-New Mexico border,
already occupied by the Southern Pacific
tracks.
The Bisbee company had prepared to
put |, 500 men at work at daylight yester
day to rush across the pass before an in
junction could be served, but the
Southern Pacific was one day too early
and secured service of writ from the
Dona Ana county district court early on
Saturday. For some time the Southern
Pacific company has apparently been
fighting the Bisbee, which is building a
parallel line, and at one time recently d
fence was built along the Southern
Pacific right Of way and armed guards
were stationed to prevent the Bisbee
from making crossing near Deming
