ness just now is to find a market
Tor this gas; to find some way by
which this grea, amount Of wealth
can be used to advantage. They
have hit upon the plan Of building
ing an electric railway from Amarillo
via Spearman to Liberal. Kansas
and using the gas in generating the
electricity. What gigantic plan and
what would the building Of such a
line mean to >Spearman? Messrs. En-
mis- and Finley had been to Liberal
where they put the proposition be-
fore the capitalists interested in the
development of the oil and gas field
near that town. They report sub
stantial encouragement from that
end Of the line. Amarillo and Liberal
are the two largest towns in the
southwest They should be connected
by rail. Amarillo and Liberal men
had the nerve to prospect for oil
in the widest Of wild cat territory.
They have gas now and may eventu-
ally find the oil. What they start out

From Munich.

Berlin. Feb. 16.--With reference to
the Bavarian governments note to
the chancellor leaving the responsible
ty for the disarmament with the Ger
man government, Munich writer of
high authority declares that disarma-
ment of the Bavarian einwohnerwehr
is at present impossible. He says that
arms have been distributed among a.
GEO separate farmsteads, whose owners
after their experience with the red
terror in 1914 would refuse to sur
render these arms, while 100000 other
members of the einwohnerwehr in Ba-

ing upon clew obtained through a
recent seizure of arms in Berlin, the
police had discovered 1900 rifles and
a quantity of ammunition concealed
