NO UNION IN SIGHT
GROENEVELD SAYS PRESBYTERIAN
CHURCHES WILL NOT BE
FORMALLY UNITED.

There is little hope for an immediate
union of the twelve different Presbyterian
churches in the United States" said Rev.
L. ]. Groencveld to the Inter Mountain
today. mot for great many years to
come will there be an organic action taken
to effect such union. There has existed
for a number of years fraternal union
between the churches, and at the meeting
next summer in Liverpool. England, OF the
Alliance of the Reformed churches
throughout the world, holding the Presby-
terian system, close fraternal union may
be established.
"Thc Alliance was formed in London,
England, in 1875. 1t has held several
general meetings and represents about 49,
100000 Presbyterians. The United States
will send Sc delegates to this assembly,
and such prominent names as Admiral J..
c. Watson, General Brakeman, John H.
Converse and Gen. Ralph Z. Prince head
the delegation. This assembly has no
legislative power whatever, but its i'll
fuence is very great and any action it
may take will have great weight with the
General Synod of the Presbyterians, which
is the legislative body of the church.
"At the conference in Great Falls this
week union was effected between the
Congregationalists, Methodist Protestant
that better feeling exists between
Christians today than ever before.
"The feeling between the Presbyterians
of the North and South is the greatest
difficulty that will have to be overcome
before the twelve churches can be united,
and time alone can alter this feeling"

Delegate Smith Says He Did II.

Delegate Smith of Arizona says that the
gineered by the Republican steering com
mittee of the senate, the members of which
kept in the background themselves and
showed the less experienced Senator'S to the
front to Kill time AldriCh of Rhode Island
was the head and director of the filibuster
movement. There was safe majority of
fifteen in the senate for the Omnibus bill,
Mr.. Smith SAYS, if direct vote could be
reched The vital point was reached when
the bill was added as an amendment to the
postoffice appropriation bill. President
pro tenn Frye stood ready to declare the
amendment out of order and the Republi-
cans who favor the bill would not vote to
overrule the decision of the chair. Then
it was that the friends of the bill knew
they were defeated and gave up the fight.
Mr.. Smith says only his opposition pre-
vented the passage of bill uniting New
Mexico and Arizona as one state. The
New Mexican accused him of defeating
Statehood on this line and he cheerfully ac-
cepted the responsibility, feeling satisfied
that he was carrying out the wishes of the
people of Arizona. He says there is no
doubt that an effort will be made in the
next Congress to pass two Statehood bills,
one joining Oklahoma and Indian Terrific
ry and the other Arizona and New Mexico.
Mr. Smith is opposed to union between
Arizona and New Mexico under any cir
cumstances or conditions, and says that
the people OF Arizona must organize tc
beat the scheme or the Republican man
ayers will put it through during the mex
session of Congress.

At the north end of the OsCura noun
county, says the Santa Fe New Mexican.
is situated a section about ten miles square
wherein there are found extensive and
easily worked deposits of hematite iron ore
running about sixty per cent, to the ton.
The location is about seventeen or eighteen
miles west of the FL Paso Rock Island rail
way, and about thirty miles southeast of
Progreso, the county seat of the new county
of Torrance. These deposits were discov-
cred by Prof. +. A. Jones, formerly direc-
tor of the New Mexico School of Mines,
and now in charge of the Geological and
Mining Census of the territory under the
direction of the Geological Survey of the
Department OF the Interior.
The section is known as the Jones Iron
Mines and the New Mexican understands
from reliable source that all of Professor
Jones claims acquired by location, discov-
cry and assessment work have been sold
and transferred to the Colorado Fuel and
Iron Company, which corporation in due
time expects to run a branch railroad from
Coyote station to these iron ore fields.
The consideration is believed to be quite
handsome and will make Professor Iones,
comparatively speaking, a wealthy man.
The company now has store on the
premises and is employing from twenty to
thirty miners to do development work and
prospecting. Whenever the Colorado Fuel
and Iron Company gets ready for active
business, it can safely be asserted that
large and prosperous mining camp will
ensue, and that, more than probable,
foundries and rolling mills will be con
structed and operated there, Coal III
abundance can be brought down by the
Santa Fe Central from its extensive coal
fields near Clark in the southern part of
this county, or from the Dawson coal fields
I in ColfaX county by the Dawson railroad
and the FL Paso & Rock Island road.
