At the Regular Monthly Meet-

Commerce Last
[Night.
SEVERAL NEW MEMBERS
Last night at the chamber of com-
merce the board of directors of that
organization held their regular
monthly meeting. Five of the direc-
tors were present, constituting a quo-
rum. They were, Richard Caples, E
Moye, E. E. Neff, O. H. Baum and H.
B. Stevens. Messrs. Cannon, Hoyt and
B. M. Payne were out of town and A.
P. Coles was otherwise engaged.
Mr. Caples, first vice presidqpt of
the board, presided, and the first half
faetpry would depend upon its
A letter from Peru, Ind., was then
read regarding the establishment here
of a woolen mill. At first the proposi-
tion of the firm wishing to establish
the factory had called for the raising
of a bonus of *80,000 and a site. Later
letters, however, had talked more fa-
vorably and the matter was referred
to the committee on manufactures.

for a while at least, three Mexicans
were arrested about 9:30 last night
about six miles down the valley from
this city.
The arrests were made by a posse
of four, consisting of George Herrold,
Johnny Scott, Louis Senlt and Brown
Paschal, who had received a tip about
the raid last night and were lying in
wait for the men at a point where
was known they would pass.

minutes of the hist regular meeting The correspondence regarding the
and the many special meetings which es.tabltehment here of a school of
bell to ask for a little more time for
the consideration of the establishment
of a freight bureau by Mr. Payne’s
committee. They have the matter
now under advisement but were not
ready to report. They were given until
the next meeting to complete their in-
vestigations and make their report
A letter from Pittsburg, Pa., regard-
ing the establishment here of a glass
factory wag read. In order to intelli-
gently consider the proposition, the
company asked for the cost of build
ing materials, such as brick, stone
and lumber, also the prices at which
coal, sand and lime could be obtained.
They also wanted an analysis of'the
lime and sand. All the information
excepting the last two items had been
sent them and Secretary Campbell an
nounced that the analyses were now
completed and would be forwarded Im-
mediately.
/
many special meetings which
had been held during the past month.
The past month was a very busy one
for the chamber of commerce and aside
from the regular meeting held on Jan-
uary 11th, the minutes of meetings
called to canvass the votes for the
candidates for directors, later to can-
cass the vote for directors, a called
meeting regarding the establishment
of a freight bureau and one to con-
sider the advisability of sending Pro-
fessor Carrera to Paris were all read
and approved.
About the time the members had
all taken their seats following the
calling of the meeting to order, a lot
of fine coal which had been placed In
the stove, exploded, with great force,
doing no damage but filling the room
with smoke. For several seconds
some of the members wera under the
impression that a wholesale attempt
had been made to assassinate them,
and when the smoke cleared away.
Messrs. Neff and Stevens were found:
in the back part of the room wildly
asking what had happened.
The secretary then read the monthly
financial report, which showed a bal
ance on hand at the close of business
last night of *153.16. Several routine
unpaid bills were ordered paid and it
was decided that in the future these
bills should be presented to the com
mittee on ways and means for ap
proval before being paid.
Applications for membership were
then read as follows: James A. Dick
company, class “0;" E. B. Welch, class
El Paso Grocery company, class
“C.” Mr. Dick’s application was accom-
panied by the statement that in a very
short time he would join class “C.”
The applications were all accepted.
A letter was read from the firm of
Lutes & Lutes of New. York. They
arc real estate brokers and do quite
a business In. locating factories In
different cities. They wanted to
know what desirable considerations E!
Paso possessed and just what the city
would do to get factories. It was the
opinion of the board that that ques
tion could only be answered in specific
cases and that no general rule could
be laid down as to what action the city
might take in the case of every factory
which might want to locate here. The
letter was referred to the committee
on manufactures and they were re-
quested to correspond with Lutes &
Lutes regarding any propositions that
firm might have and the attitude of
El Paso would then be ascertained on
each proposition. Some would neces
sarlly be more desirable thgn others
and any step* the city might take to
mines was brought up and discussed
All the correspondence and the opin-
ions of many of the leading profes
sors of Texas were favorable to the
idea, but it was announced that the
cost would probably range from *250,-
000 to *300.000. In the minds of the
members of the board this was* pro-
hibitive and the question was tem-
porarily shelved.
Tbe matter of settling an old bill of
JoO due the chamber of commerce was
brought up. The hill was for litera-
ture furnished the firm of Akin & Crow
for their scheme regarding the lower
valley several years ago. This firm
was now out of business and the debt
was inherited, as it were, by J J
Mundy and C. O. Coffin. They asked
the board fpr a compromise, agreeing
t0 »ay *25. This wag agreed to.
The resignation of 0. W. Reckhart
from the mines and mining committee
was read and accepted. At the sug
gestion of the chairman of the com-
mittee M. P. Kirk was elected to the
vacancy.

come before the meeting an adjourn
ment was taken.
past two or three years.
Yesterday Johnny Scott, who has
been taking a short lay-ofT from his dn
ties as night mounted man at the po
lice station, wag asked by Herrold il
he wished to participate In an attempt
to corral the supposed thieves and he
consented. Accordingly the four of-
ficers proceeded to a point about six
miles down the valley, where it was
said the supposed thieves would pass
with their booty. Here they waited In
the darkness until shortly after 9
o'clock, when they heard the noise of
an approaching herd of cattle. When
the cattle and their captors had walked
fairly into the trap they were called
upon to surrender, which they did
without a fight. After the three pris
oners had been secured and disarmed
the cattle were rounded up and
counted. It was found that there were
ten head in all, a part only of which
were identified last night on acoount
of the darkness.
Herrold and Scott, each taking
charge of a prisoner, started for this
city, leaving Senlt and Paschal to drive
In the cattle and bring the remaining
captive. The two men with their pris-
oners arrived at the city jail about 12
o'clock last, night, In which the-two
Mexicans pere placed until this morn
Ing, when they will doubtless be trans-
ferred to the county jail. The twe
men gave their names as Jesus San-
chez and Jose de la Luz Garcia. Both
were well armed, the former having
two knives and a pistol, while Garcia
had a 44 caliber Colts revolver and a
belt and scabbard.
At at early hour this morning Senlt
and Paschal had not arrived with their
prisoner and this fact caused Scott
and Herrold to remember more vividly
an occurrence on the road to town.
They state that some little time after

against him. It is said that within the
past three years, cattle totaling sixty
eight head in all have bean stolen
from near El Faso, principally from
the ranches of Messrs. Newman, Coles
and Nations.
It is claimed that Sanchez and his
gang have been stealing a few head
of cattle, smuggling them across Into

killed. The meat would then be smug-
gled back Into the United States and
