Coal and Timber.
North of Ell Paso lie the coaf Iields.
New Mexico has a greater body. of coal
than any other state west of Illinois
enough to supply the United States for
300 years. The coal and coke plant Of
one company is declared by experts
in the coal mining industry to be the
most perfectly equipped in the world
New Mexico has all kinds of coal from
Ignite to semi-anthracite, including
immense deposits Of high grade domes-
tic and steam coal.
North and west of FL PasO, in west
ern New Mexico and in Arizona lies
the largest pine forest in one continu-
Gus body in the United States, and

However, the special correspondent of

How much further must this tele-
gram travel before it shall reach the

with the expressed will of the people
of New Mexico? Must it cross the

rass through Russia and China and

Will it be able to make the trip in

active command of the disturbed sec

almost a score of miners and guards
were killed in yesterdays battles.

was expected today, and three, under
command of Major Thomas d. Davis,
taking the road to Mucklow, where
yesterdays fighting was fiercest, Or
ders were issued to clear the noun
tains of armed men and many ar
rests were expected before night. In
some quarters. the opinion was eX-
pressed that the miners had retired
into the mountains and the soldiers
would meet with but little opposition,

and at the termination of the confer
ence it became known that the COM

the state had been ordered to hold

One result of the outbreak, it was

being very general that If an adequate
