AMERICANS GRASPlNG
INDUSTRIAL OPPORTUNITIES.
They Are Acquiring Oil Lands in
Mexico and Gobbling Up Best
Farms.

Houston, Texas, Nov. 2S.-(SpecialD
The remarkable alertness of Amer
leans in grasping the possibilities Of
a new discovery for industry has
been amply demonstrated in Mexico.
As an illustration OF this trait of
character the activity of these people
in acquiring oil lands and the arrange
ments which they are making for the
exploitation Of their holdings may
be cited. The oil industry in the Re-
public is comparatively new, but if
the claims of experts are correct that
country is destined to become the
greatest in the world in oil produc-
ton. 1t was an American concern
which bored the first oil well in Mex
leo less than eleven years ago. The
development of the industry is now
making gigantic strides and the Amer
leans are leasing and purchasing land
by the hundreds of thousand of acres
with the view of engaging in the in
dustry. Running the Americans

The influx of American farmers to
Mexico means much for its future up
building. Until the recent rumors of
disturbance, the first class coaches of
the trains leading from the border
were crowded daily with these invest.
ors who had resolved to pioneer their
way to a comfortable competence in
a country that is known to be teeming
with natural resources of great rich
ness. During the last few years many
colonies of American farmers have
been established in various localities.
Aside from the wealth that these new.
comers may bring into the country,
and produce after they get there, they
are serving the good purpose also Of
leavening the loaf of ancient methods
of farming and existing prejudices
against things modern that among the
native inhabitants in some parts Of
the country have prevailed from time
immemorial. The advent Of these new
tillers of the soil is causing a breaking
up of vast tracts of land which for
centuries have lain in an uncultivated
state.
The great drawback to Mexico in
the past has been that its land was
owned by but few people; that these
estates were so large that only very
small part of them could be cultivated.
A repetition of what took place in
Texas when the dividing up of the
big ranches into small farming tracts
was begun several years ago has now
started in Mexico. While the indus
trial advancement has been going on,
the civic progress of the towns and
cities has been equally as great.
American capital has found profit
able source for investment in the
manifold municipal Improvements
that have been made. In some of the
cities American and British investors
own the public utility plants and sys-
tens.

Spokane, Wash, Nov 2S.-The Loon

posed of 10000 square miles, has

NUGGETS OF GOLD
FOUND IN FOWLS
Were Scratched up in the Dirt on an
Electric Line in State of
Washington.

Hayford, Wash, Nov. 28.--Nuggets
were unearthed and gold was found
in the fowls that scratched in the
dirt, November 10, at the Gus Nc
Feron ranch, near Hayford, on the
Medical Lake and Cheney Electric
line of the Washington Water Power
company, where excavations were
being made for a building.
Mr.. McFeron stated the facts to
R. Lewis Rutter, secretary of the
Spokane & Eastern Trust company,
who said, in giving the information,
that there was no question as to the
authenticity of the reports and that
the finds would justify an immediate
investigation McFeron expects to
personally take charge of the work of
mining his ranch, the work to begin
at once.
The evidence is such as to lead to
the conclusion that other nuggets are
to be found in that vicinity. An ex-
SdNdllUl was hQoC lOi q Uuilo
ing on the farm when the first discov-
cry was made and the matter created
much excitement among the workmen
When chicken was killed it was
examined, and it had been noticed
that the chickens had been around
where the fresh earth was being
thrown, and no other small pieces OF
gold were found.
The opinion has already been volun-
teered that the nuggets have come
from the hills in the direction Of
Cheney, Washington
For the reason that separte mug
gets were located in the diggings at
the McFeron ranch, it is thought that
the find will prove to be an important
one.
McFeron has been a resident of
Spokane county for 20 years and is
wealthy and prominent rancher.

INDIANS STRANDED AT
SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS.
Spent Their Money as Fast as They
Made it and Were Slowly
Starvinu.


San Antonio, Texas, Nov. 2S.-For
several days the unusual sight of a
band of Indians, bucks and squaws,
with several papooses, the party
dressed in battered sombreros and
brilliantly striped blankets, has been
seen in one of the million dollar no
tells OF San Antonio. They are guests
of the kind hearted manager, and to
the delight and amusement of crowds
the red men line up in the marble and
onyx lobby and file into a cafe where
they are served their breakfast and
each is given rations to last through
out the day.
There is a story behind these red
skinned guests of the Gunter hotel.
According to their own recital, they
sported, not wisely but too we'll The
lure of the city with its moving pic
ture shows, it's glittering cafes and
trolley cars was too much. Their well
filled pocket books of few weeks ago
became empty and then, with the stoi-
cal fatalism of their race, they retired
to pecan tree grove on the outskirts
of the city on the banks of the wind
| ing San Antonio river where they
pitched their camp and were slowly
starving when farmers in the neigh,
borhood made known their condition
with the result that managing steward
R. A. Whiteside of the Gunter hotel
took pity on them, Their condition
was such that he brought them all,
men, women and children, to the ho
tel where he fed them with hot coffee
and ham and eggs. Some of the wo-
men were so weak they could scarcely
walk. They are reporting to him daily
at the hotel. He has telegraphed to
the Indian agent at Reno, Idaho, the
headquarters of the tribe asking that
transportation be furnished them.

ARRA|GNMENT Of
SUGAR TRUST
Government Brings Suit to
Dissolve American Refin-
ing Company
SUIT UNDER SHERMAN LAW
Combine and Subsidiaries Con-
troll Seventy Two Percent
of Output.

New York, Nov. 2S.-The long ex-
pected suit of the Federal Govern
ment for the dissolution of the social
led Sugar Trust; the American Sugar
Refining Company, was filed in the
United States Circuit Court this morn
ing by Henry A. Wise, district attor-
ney. The suit was brought under
the Sherman Antitrust law, and is
expected to be one of the most i'm
portant actions of the kind ever un
dertaken in this country. The gov
ernment's petition is a lengthy one,
and is a sweeping arraignment of the
defendant companies. One of the al
legations is that the late H. o. Have
meyer of New York, for long time
head of the Sugar Combine, received
$10,000,000 common stock of the Ma
tional Sugar Refining Company of
New Jersey, as a gift at the time the
corporation was formed to take into
the combine four Independent con-
charges that the defendants "for some
i. time have been and now are, engaged
in unlawful combination and conspir-
acy to restrain trade and commerce.
At the present, according to the peti-
ton, the American Company and its
subsidiaries control seventy two per
cent of the total output of refined
sugar in the country which is said to
be enough to enable it absolutely to
control prices after meeting certain
amount of competition.
Capital of $3.50, 100000.
New York, Nov. 2S.-The thirty
companies composing the Sugar Com
bine have an aggregate capitalization
OF two hundred and thirty millions.
Will be Hard Fought Suit.
New York, Nov. 2S.--lt is believed
that the present suit will be in the
courts two years before final adjudi
cation is reached. 1t is expected i
will rank in Importance with those
of the government against the Stand
ard Oil Company and the American
Tobacco company which are now
pending in the Supreme Court. Op
posed to the government will be some
of the most able lawyers of the coun
try, James NJ. Beck, former assistant
United States attorney general and
now counsel for the American Sugar
Refining Company, will lead the at
tack on governments position.

DISAFFECTION IS GENERAL
Ninety Fer Cent of People of
Chihuahua and Durango
Against Diaz.

FL Paso, Texas, Nov. 2S-Accord-
ing to the two staff correspondents of
the Herald who returned last night,
there is every prospect of further
trouble in the affected districts of Chi
huahua and Durango. They declare
that ninety per cent of the natives of
that part of Mexico are against the
Diaz government and that the revolu-
ZIONIST army was not made up of poems
and bandits, as reported, but native
railroad employees, farmers, mechan-
les and others. The insurrectos ap-
pear to have had plenty arms, ammu-
1ition and money behind them. Both
correspondents declare that the insur-
rectos have not been conquered but
only driven into the mountains.

The Case of Morse.

Petitions asking for clemency on
behalf of C w Morse, ice king
and bank wrecker, are being sent
:, to all the banks in the South by
friends of the convicted man. 1t
is true that Southern people are soft
hearted and easily taken in by
Yankee sharps, but it is difficult
to imagine what excuse the. pro-
moters of the pardon scheme could
offer a fair-minded, law-respecting
citizen for signing the petition, if
he were at all conversant with
the facts of the case, as we re-
call them.
One of the philanthropic feats
of the amiable Morse, if we re-
member Alright, was to send ships
up the Hudson river in winter to
destroy the ice, in order to force
prices up in the summer, causing
the poor fever-stricken children OF
New York's East Side to per-
ish like flies for lack of ice.
This high-handed act caused some
adverse criticism at the time, but
peoole have short memories.
Ice-king, bank wrccker and
boodler, Morse, defiant to the last
in the face of justice, crawls and
whines and cries persecution, y
now that he is getting some OF
the punishment that has so well
earned.
