IN THAT STATE.

Des Moines. April 2.--Des Moines

fronted with a coal famine as result
Of the lockout which closes every mine

souri, included in the territory EN-
braced by the affected district. Not a
pound of coal is to be had for sale in
Des Moines and other cities of the
state are similarly affected.
Local dealers have placed rush or
ders with Kansas City. Omaha, ST
Joseph and other neighboring cities
but ii is only possible to secure coal
in limited quantities. Unless the sit
uation is eased within the next three
weeks manufactures will be compelled
to shut down for want of fuel.
There has been no attempt on the
part of the operators and miners tc
get together since the split in the con
ference. Leading operators say they
will be prepared to supply the demand
for a long while yet and that they
have no thought of compromising ont
side the terms proposed and rejected
On the other hand the miners are
equally as persistent.

The great demand of the low grade
Mexican mines and the mines of Ar
izona for a good grade of coal and
coke at low price has induced the
Southern Pacific railway company to
promise that II viii build a line from
Clifton. Ariz., to Durango, Colo. The
work on the road will begin as soon
as a final survey is made. Civil en-
glneers are to he set at work on the
surveys at once. Preliminary plans
are already completed.
officials of the road say that the
new line will cut through the north
ern part of New Mexico and will ex-
tend through all the large coal fields
in the southwestern part of Colorado
The branch will connect at Clifton
with the Arizona & New Mexico rail
way owned by the Southern Pacific
The road will extend almost from one
end of New Mexico TO the other. a
distance of several hundred miles
