OF THE
EL PASO TIMES
Denver, Col., Oct. 29.—A. M. Steven-
son and D. C. Beaman, representing
the Osgood faction in the Colorado
Fuel and Iron company, have left for
St. Paul, Minn., where, it is said, they
will tomorrow present to the United
States court of appeals a petitiou for
permission to take an appeal from the
order of Judge Caldwell In Denver
last month appointing a master in
chancery to conduct the election of
directors of the Colorado Fuel and
Iron company and ordering that the
election be hold in December. If the
court allows the appeal this will lie
immediately followed, it is said, by
an application for a writ of superse-
deas setting aside the order. This ac-
tion ia considered probable and the
court will act a date for hearing and
argument on the latter proposition
should it be made.
In order to show the marvelous growth, progress and development
of Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and the Republic of Mexico during the
past few years and to present its varied and wonderful resources to the
world in order that development may be still further stimulated,

It will be by large odds the largest, best, most thorough and most,
reliable edition ever issued in the Southwest. Many writers of ability
and prominence, leaders in the industrial, linancial, commercial, gov-
ernment and professional circles will contribute special articles on these
various lines of activity.
These contributions will embrace thorough reviews of the progress
already made, the present conditions and the prospects for the future
in the various branches of trade, industry, government, railroad and
financial activity.
The issue will be all that its name implies. Situated on the border
between two friendly and prosperous republics, and anxious to serve
the best interests of both, The Times will present this magnificent edi-
tion in January, confident it will give an impetus to commerce und
industry and serve the excellent purpose of laying before the world the
resources and capabilities of the Southwestern section and the Limit
Mexican Republic.
State
Mexico City, Oct. 29.—Reports re-
ceived today from the southern part
of the republic show now, it in gener-
ally believed, that the clouds of ashes
covering that part of the country
came from Santa Marta volcano aud
th»t It is in full eruption. The moun-
tain is in Guatemala, close to the
Mexican frontier.
Municipal and County
Governments.
About 11:3(1 o'clock laat night a man
giving hta name as S. Hall was cap-
tured by the police and locked up on
a charge of burglary.
Officer Uakor heard a nolao In Hof
feckcr’a carpenter shop on Overland
street aud the light of a match was
noticed. The shop was quickly sur-
rounded by the police. The doors of
the building were found securely
locked and had not been tampered
with. When the officers called upon
the burglar to surrender they received
no answer. Fiually the door was
opened and Hall was found hid behind
some belting. He had effected an en-
trance through a trap door in the side
of the building and had already re-
moved a quantity of valuable tools
that were discovered concealed iti
some shavings on the outside of the
shop.
Hull claims to have worked for Mr.
Hoffocker last week and fifteen hours
this week. He alleges that he took the
tools because he had not been paid
what he demanded. Today he will be
turned over to the county authorities.
Ho Is a man about 30 years of age,
i and lias been some time In the city.
A number of promlucnt El l’asoans,
representative of the city's substan-
tial business interests and citizenship,
met informally yesterday afternoon in
the Chamber of Commerce and serious-
ly discussed the city's interests In the
present water question.
Nothing definite was done at the
meeting, hut those present discussed
at length the subject of safeguarding
the interests of the city In the matter
of awarding a water contract.
None of the contracts now before the
council were discussed, but the trend
of opinion seemed to be that the ut-
most caution should lie taken to pre-
vent the disposition ‘ by the city of a
valuable franchise without an ade-
quate consideration.
There was no disposition to invade
the province of the city council in
the matter further than to advise
with them, and Mayor Hammett and
the various aldermen will be Invited
to meet the committee this afternoon.
Those'present at the meeting were;
Senator Turney, A. P. Coles, Captain
Bell, Richard Caples. Zaek White,
Judge Edwards. Maurice Edwards.
John P. Dieter, Captain Charles Davis,
Jonathan Dodge, A. Solomon and Wil-
liam S. McCutcheon.

ADDITIONAL MAIL FACILITIES.
Beginning on Tuesday the United
States post office department put on
an additional mail pouch for regis-
tered mail between El I'aso aud New
York city. The |ioueh Is sealed at El
Paso and will not be opened until il
reaches New York, This will do away
with the rehandling and re-regist' r
tug of this class of mail hereafter and
much time will Is* saved in it* trans-
portation. Heretofore It was neces-
sary that the malt should change
pouches a number of times. The in-
ertased amount of mail whtch has
been going through the office here
from Arizona and Mexico direct to
New York has made this addition to
the mail facilities necessary. The
pouch will leave El Paso over the El
Paso-Rock Island short line.
