ORIENT BUILDING
WORK IS PUSHED
Stilwell Hopes To Extend
Line to Pacific Coast
i'm Year

San Antonio, Texas. Aug. 23.-Within
a year II is predicted that the Kansas
City, Mexico & Orient railroad will be
running through trains from Wichita,
has., to Topolobampo, harbor on the
Pacific coast of Mexico.
From Wichita the line is in operation
as far southwest as San Angelo and
trains are running northeastward from
Chihuahua, Mex. to a station across the
Conchas river. Between these two ter
mlnals the distance is 365 miles and con-
struction will be pushed with all speed
10 through service from Wichita. Kas..
10 Chihuahua, from which point the
road IS finished for a considerable dis
tance westward
Construction is progressing rapidlv
from san Angelo southwark towards
Del Rio, where connection VIII be
made with(the National Railways Of
Mexico. building northward from Al
Iende to meet the Orient at the Rio
Grande, where another international
bridge will be built.
Important traffic agreements will he
made between the Orient and the Yoa-
kun-Hawley interests, controlling the
Texas Central the Missouri Kansas &.
Texas, and the st. Louis. Brownsville
and Mexico lines, by which combination
dnother through short line TO the City
OF Mexico is available.
The Texas Central line, of PSI miles.
crosses the Orient a short distance
south of San Angelo. and through the
Katy connects with Brownsville offer
lag a direct thoroughfare to the capital
OF mexico over the newly completed in
ternauonal bridge at Brownsville. II is
possible that joint deliberations between
the Orient and the Mexican North West
ern may result in the determination to
combine on one line through the Sierra
Madre mountains, one Of the most diff
Ilcult routes on the American continent
The completion of the Orient viii,
open up vast and fertile territory TO
colonization and result in west Texas

OIL INDICATIONS
GOOD AT SHAMROCK
j. A. Brent Says That His
Well Is Now Down 1900
Feet and Still Going.

J. A Brent. who in company with
J. Nd. Duke is engaged in sinking a
well prospecting for oil at Shamrock,
formerly known as Camp City, n. NJ,
says the indications for oil there are
good. Mr.. Brent, who is in Ell Paso Sc
curing some new drills and supplies,
says:
I'VE have sunk our we'll to a depth
Of 1900 feet and have good indications
Of OIL We are casing the we'll At q
depth Of 900 feet we struck a forma-
ton known as silinite, which was OF a
thickness of 16 feet This is a sub
stance well known to oil men and while
1t resembles mica, being transparent,
yet it will burn. while mica will
not.
AT the 1900 foot level, we struck
a hard shale and there has been some
gas which indicates to US that the oil
is below. We have contracted for the
sinking Of the well to depth of 1000
feet and, while we expect that we will
not have to go below 1900 feet to strik Q
oil, yet with our equipment, We can
go to a depth of 1000 feet
In the canyons leading to the claim
there IS oil shale and seepage and, af-
ter breaking through this shale, there
is determined an oil smell. Yet there
is nothing proven as yet
I'VE have nothing to hide and the re-
port that we have been gobbling uu
ali land in sight is not true. I did take
up several claims when I first went I'D
there, but many others have taken up
claims and all the land has been To-
Gated for a distance of Is miles around
there"

No Saloons VIII Be Allowed

the Government

Inc vendors of suspenders and collar
buttons, who always follow the flag.
not to- mention the frontier saloon will
not be able TO get in on the ground
IIoor at the terminal of the Elephant
Butte and FL Paso railroad. 1t is prob
able that the point where the new road
Will branch off from the main line of
the Santa Fe, three and a half miles
this side Of EngIe will be marked by
a sign post When service is estab-
lished, trains will run from Elephant
Butte to Eng1e and it will be necessary
for the people going to the butte to go
to Engle and transfer to the branch
road.
Several years ago the possibility of
a saloon town grOwingg up in the
ne1ghborhood of the dam site was re-
moved, when the government withdrew
large tract of land in that vicinity.
and in the immediate territory of the
south boundary of the land grant in
which the dam site is located, there are
said to exist but two claims. There
will be lots of water at Elephant Butte
but none of the fiery variety The land
