Bodies recovered-Peat Trains, James

George Griffith, Ben Griffith, Reece

The work of removing the fallen slate

rapidly. The explosion, which was one
of the worst that occurred in the Day.
ton mines, came close upon the an
nouncement, after an inspection. that
the mine was perfectly safe. The Mel.
son shaft, however, has been the most
dangerous of the mines at Dayton on
account of the presence of mine gas,
ever since the explosion on December
20, 1895, when 2S men were killed. The
explosion, which occurred at 4:45

TO have been caused by the uninten-

and that means to Los Angeles and
San Francisco by way of the Santa Fe
Pacific. The possibilities Of the system
are great and this much is certain that
it will be dividend payer from the
start and that it Is Of far greater i'm
portance to the southwest than its
mileage would indicate.
The following are the stations on the
Santa Fe Central determined upon,
their elevation and their distance from
Santa Fe: Donaciano, $3.50 feet, D
miles; Vega Blanca, 6,400 feet. II miles;
Kennedy, G,05O feet, % miles, this Is the
station at the junction with the main
line of the Santa Fe railway; Clark,
6125 feet, 20 miles, this is the station
in the O'Mara coal fields; Stanley, $3.50
feet, Al miles, from here the branch to
San Pedro will probably be built; Mo-
riarity, $3.50 feet, 50 miles, from here
the Albuquerque Eastern will be built
and also the Galisteo CUTOFF The
above stations are all in Santa re

Willard, 6,125 feet, So miles; Progreso'
6,21o feet, 90 miles; Blanca, e,2S6 feet'
100 miles: from Blanca or Progreso'
the branch is to be built to the SAT-

DISPUTE OF NAvAJOES AND WHITES.
The Hayaloes Are Settling ON Lands In New Mexico
0utslds Of Their Reservation.

Over 400 Navajo Indian are low in
camp around Thoreau, Mckinley co nty,
awaiting the arrival of Indian Agent
Razlett from Fort Defiance. large
numb OF Navajoes have wandered
from the reservation proper and have
settled on the lands adjoining 1t within
a radius of 25 miles On hese lands
thew have made water holes and In
other WAYS fitted them to suit their
manner of life.
OF late the whi men have been en-.
croachinp on these lands with their
aocks for the purpose of grazing. Con-
siderable friction has developed between
the Navaioes and the invaders and
things have come to such q pass that a
settlement of the question Of right to
the lands is Immediately necessary. Ma
ior Hazett will be cal ed upon to decide
whether or not th- Navajoes shall re.
turn to the reservation. Vicente, chief
of the Navaioes, claims that inasmuch
as the lands are unpatented they have
a right to them because Of their long
settlement upon them
On the other hand the Whites claim
that the Indians have reservation
which is ahnudantly able to support
them and their flocks. that they have
absolute rights there and should return
and live on what a paternal government
has already provided them. Regardless
Of the decision OF Major Hazlett. there
is likely to be a stubborn fight In The
federal courts and the Whites :" III en-
deavor to ascertain just what rights the
Navaioes have beyond the limits OF their
reservation.
Chief Vicente has dispatched a special
messenger to meet Indian Agent Hazlett
ut Fort Defiance. The messenger has
authority to arrange the prelminaries
for an agreement between the agent and
the Navajo council. Indications point
to an early settlement, possibly within .

ga Blanca, south of Santa Fe, to Mo-
by way Of Galisteo, which will be 35
miles long. An extension from Tor
rance to Roswell in the lower Pecos
valley Is also under consideration.
The Santa Fe Central Railway Com
pany will do it's utmost to develop the
country which it will traverse. At
Santa Fe shops and offices are to be
built as we'll as a fine union depot, the
latter in company with the Santa Fe
and the Denver and Rio Grande sys-
tens which have already given their
consent to the depot project. Exten-
sive coal lands are being exploited by
the company between San Pedro and
Galisteo while in the Manzano noun
tains saw mills are to be erected to
treat the fine timber of that section.
New towns are being laid out ana irri-
CATION works are under contempla-
ton. The road forming an important
link between great railway systems
can from the first day of its compile
ton command an immense amount OF
local traffic for it traverses a region
which produces several million pounds
Of wool annually, in which several
hundred thousand sheep and thousands
Of cattle Craze A country that is rich
in gold, silver, copper, lead, turquois
and other minerals; a section that has
extensive beds of the finest coal to be
found in the west, a domain having
large tracts of timber, country that
can produce thousands Of tons of salt
annually and country rich in many
other resources.
Like the Ell Paso and Rock Island
railway, the Santa Fe Central will be
constructed with Pennsylvania capital;
Its president is Senator w. H. An
drews of Pittsburg; its vice president
and manager is Hon. W. s. Hopewell;
chief engineer, A. G. Kennedy; secre-
tary, J. z. Saint; and treasurer, j. L.
Mclaughlin. The Pennsylvania Devel-
opment Company has the contract for
the building Of the road and its branch
| es. Senator Arthur Kennedy OF Pitts
burg, is it's president. One OF the main
hackers of the railway company Is
General Torrance, one Of the wealthiest
and most prominent citizens of Penn
sylyania who is spoken of as a candi-
date for the Republican nomination for
| governor. which is equivalent to cleo
ton, of the great keystone state.
| Naturally there Is much speculation
as to what great railway system Is III
back of this new railroad enterprise
The facts are that 1t is an entirely IN
dependent venture although naturally
close traffic alliances will be made with
the Denver and Rio Grande for it fur-
nishes that system direct line to ~
Paso from Denver and Durango, pe'
sides being in the way of a future ex'
tension from Santa Fe to the fertile
lower Pecos valley and through Texas
to the gulf port Of Galveston. II VII
