CERRILL0S NOTES.
A Coal Mine to be Opened at Glorieta-
The Proposed Tramway.

w. P. Gould, in conjunction with the
smelter company is about to open
coal mine at Glorieta. They have un-
covered fine body Of good coking coal.
A company is to be organized at Ger
rillos to prospect for oil. Several years
ago flow of natural gas was struck
half a mile from the center of the town
and there is every indication that gas
or oil in paying quantities will be
struck when good depth is reached.
Rishworth and Philips, who have
lease on the Live Oak mine, are work.
ing in three feet of high grade ore and
will make a run through a Huntington
mill.
Fred Davenport and his corps of en-
gineers this week began the survey Of
the new railroad from the smelter to
the Tom Paine mine in Hungry gulch.
The road will be 30-inch steam road
using geared locomotive. 1t is likely
that the line will be extended to the
other mines in the vicinity Of Cerrillos.
J. H. Cook, in charge of the electric
power plant of the Cochiti Gold Mining
Company at Madrid, southern Santa Fe
county, has resigned to take effect Feb

tinuous run of 1,752 hours, closing down
for few hours upon orders from the
mine upon Christmas eve at midnight.

power Corliss. The three phase sys-
tenn is used, delivering from 400 to GOO

Ell PAS0 4 ROCK ISLAND RAILROAD.
Expects to Reach Santa Rosa by the End
of the Month-Great Difficulty in
Obtaining Suitable Water

Colonel J. Frank Chaves, superinten-
dent of public instruction, who has
just returned from a trip along the
line of the El Paso and Rock Island
railroad, states that the end of the
track on Monday morning last was 26
miles from Santa Rosa and about a
mile and three quarters of track were
being laid per day and that A. S.
Greig, general superintendent of the
construction work, hopes to reach San
ia Rosa by the end of this month and
there to connect with the Chicago.
Rock Island and Pacific railroad. The
railroad bridge across the Pecos river
is not yet complete, but may be so COM
pleted by the last Of the month. al
though it may take a few days longer.
The construction force had great diff
Guilty in obtaining suitable engine wa
ser along the line from Carrizozo to
Santa Rosa but fortunately some very
good water was found at ranch call
ed the Laguina de Marino in eastern
Valencia county from the owner OF
which the railroad company obtained a
concession and Is now drilling and
putting down several wells for the pur-
pose of obtaining the necessary water.
The water supply is about one and
ee-quarters miles from the track
and has been connected with the sta
ton grounds by pipes by this time.
Colonel Chaves is of the opinion that
the building of the road will rapidly
settle up the sections of Lincoln, Va
lencia and Guadalupe counties through
which it passes. There are many cattle
and sheep in that section and 1T Is un-
derstood that the Rock Island has al
ready contracted for the shipment OF
about 10000 head Of cattle to Kansas
City and Chicago as soon as the road
to Santa Rosa is completed and
through trains can be run.
