Inspectors Powers Limited:
e.At present there Is no special law
which gives the inspectors authority
to require the use Of safety lamps in
a gaseous mine. A mine may be found
in such a dangerous condition that
it may explode before the inspector
lis able to get out Of the mine, and
to save the lives Of the employees he
has to go through court proceedings
before a remedy is assured.
sAnother feature In connection With
the execution Of the law does not
seem to be fully appreciated, and that
is the large number of mines which
each inspector is required to inspect.
AS an illustration, the inspector Of
the Sixth district has 1850 mines, and
each of the inspectors has an average
of over 100 mines in his district, The
force Of inspectors should be increas-
ed until each had not more than 60
mines in his district, and at the pres
.ent time we have 700 mines requir-
ing inspection.
In order that a property prepared
Legislative bill be presented to our
next Legislature It is recommended
that the Governor appoint commits
sion Of expert mine men, operators
and miners TO review the conditions
and draft a. bill to meet the require
ments. This should be done prior TO
the converting Of the Legislature in or
der that the contents Of the BILL may
be freely discussed by the persons

BAD MEN IN MEXICO.

CHIHUAHUA, Mex, Aug. 15.-From
 CHIHUAHUA. Mex. Aug. S.-From the most reliable sources it is learned that there is still in and about Temosiachic a considerable number of American outlaws, all bad 'hombres." " Most, if not all of them, came from Texas, New Mexico and Arizona, who have fled from those commonwealths for their own and their country s good.
 They are of the ilk of Norcross, Wright, ct al, who held up the Dolores Mines Co.'S conducta a few months ago. These fellows have done noth- ing worse than shoot up the town a few times, but no one ever knows when life may become tame to them. Two robbed a house of i'll fame of $500 "dobes" short time ago. They were arrested, but nothing could be proven on them. The jefe de munich pal of Temosiachic gave them a gen. tie hint to leave town at once and they lost no time.
 The worst part of the trouble was that they came very near causing an innocent man to be convicted of their crime.
