the mail.
On Dec. %, at the ranch of Jose
Maria, about four miles from here,
quite serious accident occurred.
Don Santana Garcia was sleeping
near the door Of his house, when a
rabid coyote broke into the yard
and bit the sleeping man in the
shoulder, face and side. A friend
came to the rescue and had two
fingers nearly bitten off. Don San
tana is the brother-in-law of the
deceased Eduardo Villareal,
wealthy land owner in this county.
This section Of Starr county, for
the last two years, has suffered from
a veritable plague of rabid coyotes.
Born this night to Don Augustin
Olivarez and wife, son.
Don Juan Perez, who had an at
tack of paralysis, Is now recovered.
My friend, Don Santiago Pena is
an ingenious man. He has driven
well about forty feet through
limestone and got Later-about
fourteen feet-very good water. The
well anger worked like a post-hole
digger. 1t doesn't screw its way
through the rock, only goes down
by its weight. Don Santiago did the
work by his own strength, supple
mented by pulleys and a windlass
(purely home-made). He put some
pipe in the well, after making a
box curbing for a short way, and
put a pump in the tube. Then he
made a pump-handle Of mezquite,
fitted into a socket in 4 post, with
bolt, and boIted the end to the
pump-rod, and so gets his water.
His little boy, about three years
old, can get the water-'tis all so
simple and ingenious.
The Mexicans have their pet
names, such as Chaao for Luciano,
Pancho for Francisco, etc. Here
they call Santiago "Chago.' Is
that correct, or is it only a local
term?

MONEY INITIATION NOT WANTED.

In reply to an Eagle editorial in which reference was
made to the demand of banking interests OF the
country for more flexible currency. that is. for cur
rency so arranged that the of money panic
its volume could be enlarged sufficiently to relieve the

writer on finance sends reply which will be found ID
the next column The Eagle agrees with Dr. Miller in
the main Currency tnkering is dangerous currency
so elastic as capable of indefinite expansion would
be- or might prove a very dangerous or unreliable
money Hon Joseph Cannon the speaker Of the next
house right in his stand against any nkering with
the currency laws Of the country at least until after the
next national campaign
The squeeze that is on is but logical reaction
from overcapitazation from unwarraned watering and
wild speculation The time is coming, and in the near
future when the present policy of issuing bank notes
on government Indebtedness will be challenged and by
majority of the people, without reference to the views
or interests of bankers More and are arrv-

should be made legal tender for all debts public and

of the treasury the option of redeemlng them in 22

SHALL WE INITIATE THE BANK NoTEs9

To the Editor of the Eagle.
The issue Of your paper Of July 18th contained
editorial under the heading "A More Elastic Currency
in which you say Because Of the general apprehension
that there is somewhere ahead of money panic
there is general by the money interests of the
country for such amendment to the monetary laws
will permit of the expanding of the volume of cur
Iency in times of squeezes.'
Now would like to inquire who it is that is making
the demand elastic currency. Who is it that
is making the times of sQueezes?" Are there polt
ca social religious clubs associations in the
try demanding a elastic currency? Are there
farmers working men in the country demanding a
more elastic currency? Are there any newspapers or
magazines in the country demanding elastic cur
rency outside those whose stock controlled by the
bankers who demanding such currency? Who is it
that is making times of squeezes" but the stock
gamblers in Wall Street their associates in the
stock boards Of other large cities?
What do these parties mean by "a elastic
rency except that be expanded and contracted
BY the parties that control it at their option? What
kind of currency is it that they demanding shall be
expanded in the time of squeezes?" Do any these
parties talk about suggest that the greenback
treasury notes or any form Of government paper
money be expanded made more elastic? Not bit of
it. On the contrary. they working and planning or
contrving by every opportunity drive

reissue and in circulation s26oo0000 Of legal tender
notes in order TO stop the panic of 1873 Within the last
FIVE years they have destroyed $4,000 600 of
legal tender notes the very form of legal tender
money ever issued by nation this earth and have
expanded the issue OF national bank notes about S240

the banks are loanng them the people and drawing

New York. Feb. 3.-Livcrnool was dis
appointing this morning and there was
but little speculative demand. Our mar
ket gave way six points at the opening
but regained half the loss during the
day. 1t was a very dull one throughout.
There has been considerable short sell
ing recently on the belief that this weeks
movement as compared to last year will
bring about a decline, but it seems that
large interests are taking advantage Of
the heavy receipts to accumulate con-
tracts. One prominent Fall River opcr-
ator who is in this CITY is credited with
having accumulated a line of $50 000, 900
bales Of March and May cotton. Wan
Street houses who are identified with
January contracts some time ago arc
heavily short, and it seems that the
more legitimate interests the cotton
trade represent the other end of the deal
We can see nothing that will operate
as a depressing factor for some time to
come, while on the other hand the short
interests arc liable TO become nervous
at any moment and if they should at
tempt to cover prices will advance con-
sidcrably above nine cents very quickly
We think the next move in the marke;
OF forty or fifty points will be upward
and it is liza bic to como sooner than gen
orally expected, in fact we don't believe
that tho market will sell ten points low
err than today's price before there is a
good advance.
