Serious Disorder Follow in Phila-
delphia Saturday and Sunday.
Philadelphia, Pa, Special.-Sud.
denly Saturday a strike was de-
clared in this city on the Philadel-
phia Rapid Transit Company lines
by the Amalgamated Association OF
Street and Electric Railway Employ
es, which resulted in serious disorder
among the striking carmen and po-
lice and fremen. Two cars were
burned, and a score more attacked.
The crews manning the cars were
forced to abandon them. Except IN
the central part of the city, cars
were at a standstill,. those running
were heavily protected. The ..cal
company dismissed about 200 OF the
men, and this seems to be the cause
for the strike.
Sunday rioting in every section OF
the city followed the attempt to run
cars. Passengers and crews were
drove from the cars and cars burned
by strike sympathizers. Finally ali
cars were withdrawn. The mayor Of
the city will enforce the riot act.

America a Thirsty Nation.

Americans must be a thirsty ma
ton judging from the imports Of
drinkables as set forth in a state
ment just issued by the bureau of
statistics Of the department Of COM
mercc and labor. The United States
drank the essence Of more than 5
billion pounds of coffee in 1909, vali
ued at $85, 100000. That was about
q dollars worth of coffee for every
person in the United States. Tea is
not such a favorite. Only a little.
more than a hundred million pounds,
valued at about SIG, 900, 200, came in.
But in spirits. wines and malt liquors
the nation touched its highest record
for Importation in 1909 and consum-
ed foreign products of that kind to
the value of more than $26,000,000,
more than twice as much as vas i'm
ported in 1899. South American
supplied most of the coffee, Asia
most of the tea and Europe most of
the wines and liquors. The United
States is .he worlds largest coffee
drinker and Great Britain is the
worlds greatest consumers of tea.
Every person in the United States
used on the average of IL pounds Of
coffee during 1909, but the use of tea.
remained about unchanged from the
previous year.

view. After voting down the Mont
gomery amendment allowing the

commission of five to get options and
plans and specifications for changes

well provided for in an appropria-
ton Of 100000 for repairs to the

Just now Arizona and New Mexico
are knocking loudly for admission
into the Union and they will, in all
probability, be the last applicants to
seek such admission.
From the best information obtain
able there is probably a population OF
100000 in the Territory of New
Mexico at this time. 1t is $50 miles
north and south, by 34S miles east
and west and eontins 1880 square
miles, within its borders.
It is estimated that an actual val
uation of property within the Ter
.ritory would represent more than
$500, 900, 900. In addition to this.
there are many homesteads under
cultivation and many mining claims
where patents have not yet been is
sued and which are still exempt
from taxation. There are probably
400 miles of railroad recently con-
structed and exempt from taxation
for six years. 1t is extimated that
there are nine billion tons Of coal
in the Territory. The value of these
resources, not yet subject to taxation
and of %undeveloped resources, is
probably not less than $50O,OOO,0O0.
The school census taken in 1908
showed 93,894 children Of school age,
the school buildings alone being esti-
mated to be worth $1,000,000. Re-
ligious denominations show an en-
rollment of more than 5000 pupils.
In New Mexico agriculture is
mainly conducted by irrigation along
the river valleys of the San Juan,
Rio Grande, the Mimbres, the Can
adian, tie Cimerron, the ella, the
Pecos and their tributaries.
Commercially, the Territory shows
about 5000 miles of railroad in
operation, ten daily newspapers and
one hundred weekly papers. There
are forty-one national banks and nu-
merous Territorial 9 and savings
banks.
Arizona was a part Of the terri
tory that was acquired from Mexico
by the treaty of Guadalupe Hidlgo,
February ., 1s4s. and by the Gads-
den purchase of 1853, and was a part
Of the Territory of New Mexico,
from which it was separated and or
ganized info a Territory.
1t is 37S miles long by 800 miles
wide and contains 1890 square
miles, and it is believed that when
the census of the present year is
taken it will show a population Of
about 100000. 1t has grown rapid
ly since the census of 1900, rs indi-
Gated by the receipts ar various
p~ostoffices in the Territory.
The population of Arizona IS al
most wholly that Of Americas SO
per cent being Of that nationality, ID
per cent Mexicans, II per cent In
dams, and 6 per cent foreign nation

Both of the great political parties
in the last campaign pledged them
selves to the admission into the
