DEPOSIT or GYPSUM.
Probably the Largest In the World Is Found In 0tero
C0untV

In Otero county and along the line of
the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific

powdered sand of snowy whiteness and
Is 30 miles long from north to south and
20 miles wide from east to west. The
White Sands as they are commonly
known, have been much talked about,
but no practical use has ever been
made of the deposits. An Ancho large
cement plant Is now being installed and
the product will be prepared for plas-
ter, Stucco cement plaster of paris
and building material. The gypsum
VIII also be taken in large quantities to
be used as fertilizer for wheat fields.

Neither Miners, 0fficars Nor Operators Will

President Mitchell Said II tho Miners Organization
Is illegal, All Labor Organizations Are illegal
As All Are Formed Along the Same

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct 11.-President
Mitchell arrived at strike headquarters
from New York shortly before 1C
o'clock this morning. He was imme-
diately taken in hand by the inter-
viewers, but he steadfastly declined to
talk of his New York trip for publica-
ton. Mitchell's attention was called to
the letter of Wilcox to President Roose-
velt in which he maintains that the
miners union is an Illegal organiza-
ton. The strike leader hesitated to say
anything for moment and then re-
piled. "The miners union is organized
along the same lines as all the labor
unions in the country. If the miners
organization is illegal, so are all the
others, and / say our union is not lille
gal" This is the extent of Mitchelrs
talk to the press representatives this

on any other question was failure

ARBITRATION HOPED FOR.
Washington, Oct. II. - President
Roosevelt is seeking every method by
which there may be federal action talk
en- in the settling of the coal strike. His |
cabinet advisers have been requested !
to look carefrllv into ,the laws, which |
may have a bearing II tle subject ana |
see If there is any statute under which !
he can proceed. So far nothing has |
been found. There is one ray of hope, [
but it is rather faint in view of the at
titude of the coal operators. This is
that some mutual ground of arbitration
may be found. What the president and
his advisers are trying to ascertain is
middle ground of arbitration
may not be agreed upon. Those who
have discussed the matter with the
president, think that as the situation
grows more acute, both parties in the
Interest of the public welfare, may be
Induced to accept it or something of
similar nature.
