NO COAL FAMINE FEARED
w. H. Hahn Does Not Expect Serious
Trouble From Strike.-Ma.
drid Miners Satisfied.

w. H. Hahn, the New Mexican
agent for the Colorado Fuel and Iron
Company, does not expect any serious
trouble over the fuel situation, even
should the threatened strike in the
Colorado mines be called.
Mr.. Hahn has just returned from a
trip to Madrid and believes that there
will be no strike there. The miners
seem satisfied with their condition and
some OF them are making money. One
Italian miner is known to have earned
$135 during the past month, in addi-
tion to his living expenses. New
Mexico is not threatened with coal
famine even should strike occur, for
the dealers are well supplied and could
furnish their customers with coal up
to February at least.

Fires kindIed In the Penitentiary
kiIns Last Night That Will In
crease Output BY 10000.

Fires were lighted in the peniten
tiary kilns last evening to burn 150,
900 brick that have been made and
dried by the inmates during the past
week. This production will be out OF
the kilns on November "A when an
other 10000 will have been made and
dried, as the Little Haverstraw"
within the penitentiary gates is work
ing full time these days.
The visible supply at the present
time, ready for use, is 100000 building
brick, fresh from the kilns, and 150,-
900 of the paving variety. The demand
for both the paving and building brick
turned out at the penitentiary contin-
ues to be greater than the supply, as
Superintendent H. o. Bursum has
many orders on hand, for future deliv-
cry.

Company Offered at Public
Sale.

On the 10Th ultimo, at Copper Hill,
Taos County, fifteen miles above EN-
budo station, Robert c. Gortner, Esq,
as special master in the case OF Aben-
roth & Root Manufacturing Company,

ing Company and others, sold out the

which was destroyed by fire about two
years ago, wherein there is quite deal
of machinery in more or less damag-
ed condition.

as to what will be done with the prop
erty, but as a very valuable strike Of
copper ore has been made on an ad-
joining claim by William A. Anderson,
of Taos, with trend through the Cop
per Hill Company's claims, it is sup
posed a new company will take hold
of the enterprise and prosecute it with
diligence.

FISH FOR
STREAMS
ERE Now Being Distributed in
Southern New Mexico by U. S.
+ Fish Commission Agents.
10000 TO BE LET LOOSE
Eleven Thousand Are Rainbow Trout
and the Others Crappies, Rock
and Black Bass.

United States Fish Commission Car
No /, passed through Ell Paso this
week with many thousand fish to stock
streams in southern New Mexico and
Arizona. The car comes from the
government hatcheries at Neosho,
Missouri. On board are 10000 fish OF
which 11,UOO are rainbow trout and
the others crappies, rock and black
bass 1t will take a week to distrib-
ute the fish. The fish carried are from
one to two inches in length and are
carried in five gallon cans with from
100 to 200 fish in can.
The front end of the car is equipped
with large air pump and storage
cylinder and this pump is kept going
all the time to furnish oxygen which
is constantly kept flowing through the
water in the cans BY this method the
water is kept full of oxygen and in a
measure represents running water, as
It is constantly kept bubbling by the
current of air.
1t is found after long years of study
that the fish will do much better on
a trip of this kind if they are not fed,
so they get nothing to eat while in the
car The men in charge of the car
state that he fish will under ordinary
circumstances, live and do nicely from
81 to 25 days without food. The wa
ter, however, in the cans has to be
changed occasionally
People and communities desiring
fish for stocking lakes streams and
ponds must ile their application with
the hatchery and they are supplied at
the first convenient time, when the
car is sent to that section.

A FRONTIER CONFLICT.
Uruguayan Police and Brazilian

RenoHfed Killed.


Montevideo, Uruguay, Nov. 5-A
serious conflict has taken place on the
Brazilian frontier between the Uru-
guayan police and the Brazilians. Sew
eral persons were killed and a num-

arrested man named Gomez at Ri

number of armed citizens. He open
ed fire on the Uruguayans killing and
wounding a number.

Ana was stoned by mob. The Uru-
guayan minister at Rio Janeiro pro-
tested against these proceedings to
the Brazilian government and the Bra

piled, lamenting the difficulty and say
ing that he would investigate imme-
diately.

ASSESSMENT OVER DUE.
of Owners in Fairview Cemetery
Should Cooperate With the
Woman's Board of Trade.

In closing the books for the season,
the committee of the Woman's Board
of Trade having the Fairview GENE
terry in charge finds that only about
half of the lot holders have responded
to the assessment sent them early in
the spring. Even If all Of the
money was paid in. it would not defray
the expense for water and actual day
labor necessary to keep the cemetery
in good condition.
The committee is composed of Mes
danes Ellen S. Palen, Ida Rivenburg
Esther Thomas and Miss Byrtha Staab.
While these ladies are willing to de-
vote their time and thought to this
work, and the appearance of the ceme-
terry testifies to the faithful discharge
of this entirely voluntary labor, it
seems that the least those interested
in this "City of the Dead" can do is
to pay their share towards the neces-
sary expense involved in the work.
The Fairview cemetery under the
of this committee from
the Woman's Board of Trade has be-
come a spot of beauty and is kept in
neat and clean condition,
in fact it is one of the places well
worthy of visit. The members of the
committee have done and are doing un-
selfish and good work in that direc-
ton and should be aided by the lot
owners, by the speedy payment of as
sessments made upon the latter for the
purpose of keeping the cemetery
walks, fences, necessary wa
ter supply, flowers, grass plots and
everything connected with the Fair
view cemetery in the satisfactory con.
1ition which now prevails.

NO TROUBLE
SOUTH OF LINE
Collector of Customs Garrett Ex-
plains Why w. r. Fail Was
Arrested in Mexico.

News received from Ell Paso is to
the effect that Customs Collector Pat
F. Garrett says there is no trouble at
Columbus, New Mexico, between Dep
uty Collector W. r. Fall and the Mex
lean authorities as reported and that
reports to that effect are erroneous as
far as he knows. However, he admits
that there was a clash a few days ago,
but says it is now over, as it was all
a mistake.
"There was little friction few
days ago." he said, "but that was set
tied and the matter ended there 1t
came about in this way: Mr.. Fall
was on the Mexican side of the border
en- route to Palomas and meeting
man in a wagon, asked him if he in
tended crossing into New Mexico. The
man replied that he did not and drove
on, but, made complaint to the Mex
lean officials that the United States
collector had interferred with him on
Mexican territory and they followed
and arrested Mr.. Fall. He was detain-
ed at Palomas for some time but when
he satisfied the Mexican officials of his
position, they released him and that
settled the matter for all parties con-
cerned."

ESTATE OF "lORD" COAPE
A. 3. Renehan, ESQ.,, Has Just Return
ed From Appraisng it and APP
pointing Administrator.

A. B. Renehan, Esq, returned last
night from a trip to Lumberton and
TERRA Amarillo where he went on
business connected with the estate of
the late A. P. F. Coape who killed
himself. his wife and sster-in-law on
October 4. The estate is appraised at
$4,000, though it seems, a large part
OF this amount is made up of saloon
accounts which are not collectable.
Emmett Writ of Lumberton, was ap'
pointed administrator, and furnished
bond in the sum of $21 900. At reas-
enable valuation, Coape left real and
personal property worth about $4,000,
against which there are debts and
charges which will reach probably
$4,000.
Certain diamonds which Coape was
known to have had, have disappeared,
either taken when the bodies were dis
covered, or disposed of by Coape, pos
sibly in contemplation of suicide. al
though their disappearance is founda-
tion for the rumor that the family
was murdered by an outsider bent on
robbery.
A very close question exists as to
whether Coape or his wife died first,
on which depends the descent of the
property left, and it is the contention
on the part of Mrs. Coape's relatives
that she survived her husband, while
the opposite theory is held by Coape's
relatives. The determination of the
controversy rests upon medical evi-
dence, and the fixing of the time
when the shots were fired, which can
not be done with any degree of GER
tainty, as the testimony will be in con-
fict.
Felix Garcia, Esq. was appointed
administrator for the estate of Mrs.
Coape, which is appraised at $4S7 OF
separate property.
