the reduction of the treasury's cash bal ance and the coming maturity of the one- year emergency notes, put out at the time of the financial crisis all suggest a possible further call on the national banks for a return of government de- posits London was a source of some strength to the local market, both at the opening and in the closing spurt. The purchasing for that account was ascribed to the satisfaction felt over the conclu- sion of the fortnightly settlement with out failures, which had been feared on account of the extensive fall in prices since the preceding settlement due to the war scare.
 The political situation seemed to cease entirely to play any part in the finan- cial markets. Some "reminiscences were indulged in with the entry upon the pe- riod of anniversaries of the exciting events attending the financial crisis last year. The coincident of the opening of the trial of a banker conspicuous in the events of a year ago gave food to this discussion. A good effect was produced by reports that copper consumers were less aloof in filling their requirements, WLut pIDuuctIS dIC llOlulA5 lO5SlllSI more firmly for their prices.
 The view of the authorities in the iron and steel trade of present conditions was decidedly conservative and estimates of the United States Steel rate of activity in September and of the earnings of the latter quarter scarcely availed to coun- teract the effect of these views.
 Money lenders reported an increase in the demand for call loans, while some of 4I,1 To, nti h. drawn from that department The result was the little furry in call money rates today to 2 per cent, the highest since the conclusion of the October settle ments. The buying of stocks which be- gan with the rise in call money gave suggestion of responsibility by the bears for recent selling of stocks The upward impetus lasted until the closing.
 Bonds were steady. Total sales, par value, $3,6640OO.
 United States bonds were unchanged on call.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter.

New York, October 15.-The strength of the market continues and on any decline the latent strength speedily brings about a rally. The trade is not affected by the heavy port receipts so long as the exports continue large. Business is con fined, however, to local operations and the extensive selling of May deliveries by the large spot interests is causing comment As result of the dullness and the steadiness of prices operators are in clined to be less bearish. Telegrams say that spinners are placing large orders in the primary markets at present prices.

WOODWORkERS LOCKED
OUT AT GLASGOW

Glasgow, Scot, May 2.-The Clyde
shipbuilders this morning locked out
5000 woodworkers from their yards
This measure is the outcome of dis
pute between the shipbuilding EN-
ployees federation and the ship work
ers Of the northeast coast, who struck
rather than accept a reduction of
wages, and who were unable to get
the federation to arbitrate the de
mands. Lockouts have been decided
upon at all the ship-building yards
in the United Kingdom, and work
men in other branches gradually will
be locked out. There seems to be ev-
cry prospect of a CONF pIete stoppage
of the ship building industry, a con
ditio1 that will affect directly not
less than 250,OOO men.

HOT FIGHT
IN TEXAS

Dallas, May 2.-The Democrats of
Texas are choosing four delegates
at large and four alternates to the
Denver convention today. The chief
interest centers on the campaign of
Senator Bailey who is seeking election
as a delegate. In opposition to him
is a ticket headed by Cone Johnson.
There is no contest over whom the
delegates will support in the national
convention, both sides being pledged
to William J. Bryan. The fight is on
the endorsement of Bailey and con-
test has been carried on II every
county of the state. A heavy vote is
expected.

A ROAD TO
CHEAP COAL

A number of Roswell people are
ested in the opening of new coal
field west of Roswell. FL Paso people
have opened up and located field
of very good coal, on the south side
of the Ruidoso river, this side of the
Indian Reservation. A number of Ros-
well men have become interested in
the matter, and it is planned to run
a railroad from Roswell to the fields.
The coal has been examined by ex-
perts and the following report has
been made on it:
Moisture, 3.64 per cent.
Volatile, 31.95 per cent.
Fixed Carbon, 55.14 per cent.
Sulphur. O.6O per cent.
Ash, S.67 per cent.
The heating value of the coal is
placed at 11,S2S British Thermal Tn
it's. The assayers say also that the
coal is non-coki1g, but is consider
ed a first class heating steaming coal.
The vein as at present uncovered is
42inch vein, and extends for more
than a mile. The vein shows every
indication of increasing il thickness
as the development proceeds, and it
is then expected it will become en-
tirely free from vegetable stain.
Should the Roswell parties take
hold of the matter, it will afford Ros-
well cheaper coal, timber, granite and
brick. The building of road to the
coal fields. a distance of about fifty
five miles, should not prove difficult,
although there are some rather steep
grades to overcome. Outside capital
lists have been approached on the
matter and it is believed it can be
successfully put through.

DEAN A. C. PECK WILL CON-
DUCT A REVIVAL HERE.

Dean A. c. Peck, of Denver, is ex-
pected to arrive in Roswell this ev-
ening. He is coming for the purpose
of leading in the last two weeks OF
the revival meetings now in progress
at the First M. E. church. Dean Peck
is we'll known throughout the Meth
odist church, especially in the city
Of Denver and the state OF Colorado.
He is at the head of the City Temple
Institute IN Denver and is interested
in various benevolent enterprises AS
an evangelist he is said to have few
equals.
The Montgomerys, who have been
associated with DIR. Chapman and
DR.. Torrey, and who are considered
of the greatest evangeists of the day,
say that as an effective evangelistic
leader DIR. Peck is their equal and
II some respects their superior. A
gentleman who heard DIR. Peck last
winter in St Louis told the Record
that the people of Roswell should
consider themselves fortunate to
have the opportunity to hear Dean
Peck.
DR.. Peck received his sobriQuet o1

THE COMING EVENT OF
THE BASE BALL SEASON..

The ball game between the Elks
and Old Timers, to be played May
Sth, promises to be the event of the
season. The captains of both teams
are sitting up nights working out
trick plays and new stunts to spring
on each other, and the game will un-
doubtedly be a sensational one.
The High Sheriff of Chaves county
has promised to umpire the game,
he being the only man authorized to
carry shootin' irons, and to use them
if necessary. Mr.. Ballard says he
doesn't know much about the nation
al game, but he will guarantee that
when he makes a decision it will go.
Tickets are on sale at the Pecos
Valley Drug Store. Williams & Co.
and The Wigwam. The management
guarantees to give the public the full
worth of their money.

DYNAMITED
FAST TRAIN

Butte, Mont, May 2.-East bound
Burlington train No. 6, due in Butte
at eleven O'Clock last night, was dy-
ern Pacific station at 11:07 last
night. The explosion caused the first
helper engine to leave the rails, but
it pLowed along for a few hundred
feet without turning over The second
engine crashed into the bank south
Of the track a few car lengths from
where the explosion occurred. Every
person on the train has been account
ed for, except Engineer Busby of the
second engine, who is supposed to
be buried under his engine. Carl
Mango, who was riding on the blind
baggage, had to be taken from
mass Of timbers under which he was
buried. He had a leg and an arm bro
ken. Fireman George Ehle, of the
second engine, was badly scalded.
The mail car was hurled from the
track and badly wrecked. The cold
storage car next to the mail car was
smashed into kindlilg wood. The ex-
press and baggage car were derafled,
only the Pullmans remaining on the
track.
The dynamiting is believed to be
the work of some hobo seeking re-
venge for being elected from the
train. Express Messenger J.. B. Val
entine was seriously bruised
Engineer Lensie, Of the first en-
utes late and running about 40 miles
an hour The line was perfectly

a terrific explosion and my engine
was lifted clear Of the track. but it
quickly settled on the ties along
which it ran about 800 feet l applied
the brakes, but not before the coup
