New Mexico,

The Carlisle mine at Steeple Rock
reports a itch strike at the 500-foot
level. The ore carries high-grade lead
and zinc with silver A drift has
been run fifteen feet, with the face
all in ore. Another good strike was
made at the 697-foot level.
Development of 900-foot level in the
Last Chance mine is being pushed
both east and west, with encouraging
results. This property has been a
continuous producer of gold and sill
yer for over thirteen years, during
which time upwards of $5,000,000
gross has been mined.
Among the old silver camps of New
Mexico that are being reopened up
since the rise in the price of silver,
says Albert A. Leach, geologist, is one
that is likely to prove of interest to
mining men because of it's unique type
of deposit. 1t is the old camp OF
Black Hawk, in Bullard Peak mining
distriett, twelve miles northwest of
Tyrone and twenty miles west Of Sill
yer City, which is interesting because
of it's nickel and cobalt arsenides in
commercial quantities, together with
massive native silver and argentite.

TROOP MOVEMENTS PROBLEM SOLVED

Washington-Fairfax Harrison, gen
eral chairman of the special committee
on national defense of the American
Railway association, announced that a
complete plan of cooperation during
the war between the railroads and the
government had been determined upon.
His statement follows:
'The preparations for war as made
by the government and the railroads
have been worked out along the lines
largely developed by Lieut.. Col. Chaun-
cey 3. Baker. of the Quartermaster
corps, who for number of years has
made an exhaustive study of military
Transportation. He has been in charge
of transportation for the quartermas-
ter general from 1902 until 1906 and
from 1912 to the present time.
GAS agreed upon by the railroads
and the military authorities, represent
atives of the American Railway asso-
citation, from the operating, motive
power, traffic and accounting depart
ments of roads designated by the spe-
cial committee on national defense of
the American Railway association will
be located in the office Of the quarter
master general, at each department
Headquarters, at each mobilization
point, at each concentration point and
at each strategic point at which troops
are to be assembled. Other inspectors
or representatives will be designated
as may be required to facilitate the
cooperation between the transporta-
ton and the military service and as
the needs of the service may indicate.
Must Be Broad-M Minded.
'"The railroads special committee on
national defense has advised the car
riers that officers for the above service
should be chosen from class of men
who will be broad-minded and tempera-
mentally men of such character as
would take broad view of transporta-
ton in movements of troops and sup
plies They should wholly divest them
selves of any disposition to work for or
in favor of any particular transp0rta-
ton line, but should apply themselves
solely to the solution of the transpOr-
tation problem in the manner most sat
isfactOry to the government, and in
such fashion as can be most effectively
executed by the railways. They are
assigned to this duty as transporta-
ton experts and will assist the quar-
termaster with whom they are serving
not only in the transportation of troops
but in any other matter pertaining to
transportation in which their assist
ance may be requested.

carriers provide - Immediately upon
their arrival at the mobilization, con-
centration or other point to which as

act as an assistant, and through whom

Assignments to Be Permanent.
"The assignment of the American
Railway association representatives to
stations at the various points and posts
designated should be of a permanent
character, so that the proper officer of
the Quartermaster corps or Of state
authorities will be able to cOmmuni-
cate with such representatives and ar
range in advance all especial details
Of mobilization and of movements to
concentration and strategic points.
SHOULD it be impracticable for any
reason for any representatives so cho-
sen to continue in that capacity, their
places should be filed by other appoint
ments and the quartermasters office
affected, as well as the office of the
quartermaster general, should be no

''It is important that the American
Railway association representative in

tative shall have the advantage of per-

stoned officers and 1,343 enlisted men
(peace Strength) or a total of 2,O15
officers and men (war strength) is a
problem. Men cannot be drilled and
taught the use of rifles, of keeping
well and caring for their clothing, and
above all, of obeying orders and the
necessity therefor, without time. That
is why all military men advocate uni
versal service and the adoption of a
plan whereby regiments can be mobi-
lized quickly and supplied with equip
ment and ordnance.
When ready for duty, regiment
must be able to carry with it suffi-
cient tentage, clothing, food and NUM-
tions to last for specified time. In
the United States army it is the or
ganization most generally kept intact.
Only seldom are portions ordered long
distances, the march order being for
the whole regiment to join either some
brigade or division. 1t is complete
within itself, and any subdivision of
an infantry regiment is lacking in
something, be it only the band that
cheers the soldier evenings, if detailed
away from regimental headquarters.
In combat, the infantry regiment
is not effective unless supporting
troops cooperate. The division is
considered the proper fighting force,
if the enemy is organized. 1t con-

Big TASK To GET

as Quickly as Going
to a Fire.
MAKEUP OF A REGIMENT
Under New Law 1t Consists of 2,015
Officers and Men-Takes Time to
Drill and Teach Men How to
Care for Themselves.

New YOrk.-The recent mobilization
of National Guard regiments has
brought home to the public the fact
that even though troops are trained
as these were by service on the Mexi-
can border-a mobilization order is
far different from a fire alarm. With
the best of the regiments there was
no springing to arms overnight, the
men ready to march forward and meet
the enemy.
Few persons, noting that certain
number of regiments had been ordered
out, really knew the number of men in
regiment of infantry of the United
States army and National Guard. In
a general way, it was understood that
a regiment consists of about one thou
sand men, commanded by colonel,
and that an infantry regiment is COM
posed of foot soldiers, armed with
rifles.
All nations have their own rules as
to the number Of men to be massed
as a regiment. In the United States
this has varied. Last summer a new
law went into effect which resulted
in every regiment consisting Of 81
commissioned officers and 1864 en-
listed men when at war strength.
That law, embodied in the National
Defense Act, is of interest, as show
ing that lining up groups of men and
giving rifles and ammunition to them

What Regiment Is.
That part of the law giving the
composition of infantry units is Sec
tion Seventeen of the "Act for making
further and more effectual provision
for the national defense, and for other
purposes" 1t reads:
Each regiment of infantry shall
consist of one colonel, one lieutenant
colonel, three majors, Is captains, 16
first lieutenants, Is second lieutenants,
one headquarters company, one ma
chine gun company, one supply COM
