OLD INDIAN TOWNS FOUND.
Are More Wonderful Than Villages
of Ancient Cliff DweIlers.

Remains Of cities of a prehistoric
people. far beyond what was deemed
the furthest eastern limit of the town
building Indians. have been reported
by Father julius Hartman of the
Catholic parish at Willard. Torrance
county. N. NJ. to the School of Amer
lean Archaeology at Santa Fe. Fa-
tner Hartman was compelled to give
up his explorations by the severe
weather until next spring. but made a
survey Of sixty miles of ruins and
rock inscriptions. extending from the
present Mexican village Of Pinoswells.
Torrance county, to the Canyon Pin
tada. in a region that is desolate and
uninhabited and touched only at long
intervals by sheep herders.
The ruins of the village and com
munal dwellings antedate the Span
ish conquest of I'VE 300 years ago,
and. judging from the debris that
covers the sites and hides the ruins.
the cities are Il thousand or more a
old. The two villages nearest to Pinos-
wells are located on Il high mound, and
the communal buildings are circular in
form. From the burial place Father
Hartman took skeletons. funeral urns.
pottery. stone implements and weapons
and other relics characteristic of the
prehistoric town builders Of the Rio
Grande valley. The photographs on
the granite walls. however. are ap-
parently more connected and more
vigorous than those found in the fam
GUS cliff dwellings west of Santa Fe.
They depict scenes of the hunt and
are interspersed with symbolic figures.
such as the plumed serpent. the thun-
der clouds and forked lightning.
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1914-01-08
WAR DEPARTMENT PLANS
FOR EMERGENCY DEPOTS,
Series of Storage Quarters Will Permit
Expedition In Shipment.

General plans have been made ut the
war department in Washington for the
establishment of a series of emergen-
cy starage depots ut various places
throughout the United States for the
accumulation OF medical and suhsist-
ence supplies. clothing and other equip
ment. arms and ammunition. Each
year such sum as the army appropri-
ationS permitted has been set aside
with a view to acquiring this reserve
stock. There is now a considerable ac-
emulation. 1t is desired to have on
hand such articles Of equipment as
would not be readily obtainable in open
market in time of war.
The depots which have been estab-
lished are under the chief of ordnance.
the surgeon general and the chief of
the quartermaster corps. They are
situated in the leading cities possess
ing ample facilities for transportation.
so that the material may be shipped
without delay to any point of concen-
tration. either within the United
oIo!S"' "hClS noopS are uellS ulUDl-
lized. or to a seaport where the troops
+ being embarked for transportation
owe seas.
The whole arrangement has been co
ordinated recently by experts of the
army war college and forms one of the
important features of the departmental
preparations for war.
1t is stated that the movement has
no direct application to existing con-
ditions.
1t is held that there must be an mi
tial resource to keep an army supplied
until regular sources of supply can be
arranged. In some cases. as with food
stuffs. there will be no difficulty in
acquiring all that is needed in the open
market. Subsistence is limited in the
purchase of emergency supplies. Ger
tain of the medical supplies and much
of the clothing. however. must be ac-
quired in advance to as great an extent
as possible. Special difficulty natural
~ attaches to the acquisition of arms
and ammunition in an emergency.
The secretary of war desires to in
crease some Of these supplies as far as
possible. notably field artillery mate
rial. for which the estimate amounts
to $6.OO0.0O0. The increased estimate
for quartermasters' supplies will
amount to between $4,000. 600 and So
600, 600.
