NEW STRIKE MADE
NEAR CARRIZOZO

new discovery has been made Of
ore by the Economic Mining & Mill
ing company, eight miles southwest Of
Carrizozo, n. NJ, during the past
week, which may develop the property
into being. one of the great mines Of
the southwest It is located in Lin
coin county, New Mexico.
The ore body has been uncovered for
1900 feet. This new find is on an
entirely new claim which adjoins the
company property on the north. A
small amount of surface work has re-
vealed a large body Of ore- Assay
samples show copper carbonates and
silver chlorides, and the average value
to the ton Is estimated at SO. The
company's claims are but five miles
from the railroad at Polly, and the
ore body is so situated that it would
be possible to mine the ore at a very
cheap rate. 1t is thought that the ore
can be shipped to FL Paso at profit,
but If not. small reduction test plant
at the claim using the coal nearby
would prove the proposition.

RICH STRIKE IN
TWIN PEAKS MINE

Clifton, Ariz., Aug. S.-A party Of
Clifton people who visited the Twin
Peaks mine have returned enthusiast
tic over the strike in that mine. On
the 100 foot level a 100 foot body Of
ore has been struck which runs high in
rich sulphides.
The vein is from four to seven feet
wide of solid, massive sulphide that is
heavy with pyrites of iron. No assays
as yet have been made. but old timers
say it is rich in gold and silver and
an ideal cyanide ore.
Seven drifts are being run on free

the vein and are looking fine.

Western Union and Bell Tel

bine In Texas?

Requested by J. P. Lighrrooe, attor-
ney general of Texas, to give a report
of his company's affairs in that state.
C c. Adams, vice president Of the
Postal Telegraph Cable company has,
according to the New York Herald,
sent to that official a reply in which
he says that the Western Union Tele-
graph company and the Bell Telephone
company have entered into an unlaw-
full combination in Texas, Oklahoma,

In his communication Mr.. Adams
states that the Postal company has not
only suffered, but the general public
has been deprived of competition In
teIegraphy and that scores of
cities have been subject since
June IS to the domination arising from
the control of telegraph and telephone
wires by the Western Union company.
Competition Stifled.
Mr. Adams not only asserts that the
two companies have been connected by
means of cables so as to stifle compe-
tition, but that they are now negotiat-
ing with two English companies, the
Anglo-American and Direct, for the
control Of their submarine cables be-
tween Europe and America IF this
mated the Western Union Telegraph
company will be in absolute control in
this country as well as its connec-
fions with Europe and other foreign
countries
The legislature of Texas at its last
eession directed the attorney general
TO Investigate the telegraph and tele-
phone companies doing business in
that state. and he recently visited the
office of the Postal Telegraph Cable
company. of New York in this city and
requested that a complete report Of
the business done by that corporation
IN Texas be forwarded to him. Mr..

the connecting line contract was ter

AS result of the alleged combina-
ton entered into by the Bell company
with the Western Union, Mr.. Adams
says that the name of the Postal COM
pany as now used in Texas misleads
the public and has built up a Western
Union monopoly, not only in that state,
but in all other states In which the
Postal company, of Texas, does bust
ness.
'By reason Of thys deal" said Mr.
Adams, some 26 cities and towns in

have been cut off from the benefits Of
competition: in Arkansas %; in Louis

June 26 last when the Texas Postal
ceased giving us any business it has
closed its offices in % cities and towns
