TWO PERISH IN SNOW
STORM ON Pixies PEAK
Man and Wife Overcome by Cold
\at Windy Point as They As
cended the Summit.

(By Special Leased Wire to New Mexican)
Colorado, Springs, Colo, Aug. 23.-
Following instruction received today
from Dallas, Texas, relatives, the bod.
les of Mr.. and Mrs. William A. Skin
ner, who perished from cold and ex.
posure during storm on Pixies Peak
on Monday night, will tonight be sent
to Dallas, their former home, for bur.
ial. Coroner Jackson has decided
that an inquest is unnecessary.
Don't Freeze to Death.
The bodies were found near the
summit late yesterday, the couple hav-
ing started to walk to the top of the
peak Monday afternoon. In the mans
pocket was found a letter from a
friend in Texas. 1t said: 81 hope you
are having the time of your life in
Colorado. Am sending an overcoat as
you requested. Hope you don't freeze
to death on Pixies Peak"
Caught at Windy Point.
The last seen of the two was by pas
sengers on the down train at 4 O'Clock
Monday. Skinner, who was about 55,
then expressed doubt about reaching
the summit. Mrs. Skinner, who was
ten years younger, was confident and
they continued the journey. 1t is be-
lieved they reached Windy Point,
where the bodies were found, about Z
o'clock. At that hour a snow storm
broke and the temperature went down
to 10 degrees above zero.

at the White House and the Navy De-

ico He also called at the war depart
ment and made a request that the
Fourth U. S. cavalry under command

the delegate at request, of a lengthy
petition received from Alanogordo,
headed by w. E. Carmack and o. G.
Cady, and numerous other citizens of
that city. Major General Leonard
Wood took the telegram and stated
he thought there would be no trouble
in having this done at the request of

Your correspondent was with the
delegate on both these instances and
can certify to this being a correct
statement. The delegate will be de-
tanned here for several days on
various matters pertaining to the wei
fare of the people of the new state

Being that New Mexico is now a

more friendly and give far more con.

NEARLY TWO THOUSAND PAY
LAST TRIBUTE TO GATES.
Imposing Funeral Ceremonies at Plaza

Forenoon.

(By Special Leased Wire to New Mexican)
New York, Aug. 23.-Nearly 1000
persons gathered at the Plaza Hotel
today to pay their last tribute to the
memory of John w. Gates. Three
whole floors of the big hostelry where
the late financier made his home in
this city, were used for the funeral ar.

all parts of the country and flowers
arrived by the carload from far dis.
tant points.
The funeral services were conduct
ed by the Rev. Wallace MacMullen
of the Madison Avenue Methodist Epis
copal church, assisted by the Rev.
]. w. La Grone, of Port Arthur, Tex
The funeral was attended by large
delegations representing the Gates

monies were in progress here there
were memorial services at Port Ar
thur, attended by citizens from other
Texas points touched by the Gates in.
terests.
Crowds surrounded the hotel during

widow and his son Charles G. Gates
equally. There is a clause which pro-
vides that none Of the property can

is the advice to be formally given to
the farmers organizations by COM
mittee consisting of Senators Williams
Of Mississippi, and Owen, of Okla
homa, and Representative Burleson
of Texas, representing a conference
of Senators and Representatives from
seven cotton growing states. The COM
mittee will urge that state banking as
sociations cooperate against "The
bearish movement of the spectators. !"
What was referred to generally as the
Threatening condition of the cotton
MARKET" was thoroughly discussed at
meetings today and last night. Among
the participants were Senator'S Will
Jams and Owen, Representative I'm
uOA WOoU VI AidpdLusI, DCAOSAd iSdO-
er Of the House; Representative Hef-
lin Of Alabama, Brantley and Hughes
of Georgia, Burleson and Beall of
Texas; Garrett, of Tennessee; Hum
phreys of Mississippi, and Small OF
North Carolina. A number of them
are large cotton planters.
The committee issued statement
which read: 1T seemed to be the opin.
ion of all that there was a pre-concert-
ed-effort being made principally
through the instrumentality of the
speculative element of the New York
cotton exchange to break down the
price of cotton. 1t was the opinion
of all that the present statistical con.
dition Of cotton did not justify the
lowness of present quotations and
that the estimate of 150,OO0,OO0 bales
was unjustified by any facts on which
a prediction could be sanely based and
that moreover even If fifteen million
bale crop were in sight, the worlds
supply still probably would fall short
of the worlds demand for cotton to
the extent of more than one million
bales because of the exhaustion OF
the present visible supply of carried
over spot cotton.
"This opinion was based on the
latest advices from Egypt, India
China and other cotton producing
countries.
"This committee was also requested
to communicate in some way with the
presidents of the several state bank.
ing associations in the cotton states
asking them as far as possible to
throw their moral and financial sup
port behind the effort to counteract
the bearish movement of the specu-
lators with the view of obtaining a
fair price for the farmers cotton"
