About Time El Paso Merchants
60 to Sonora on Trade Exten-
sion Trip Colorado Men
Will Come Here.
FLANS FOR ENTERTAINMENT
About the time the El Paso business
men are making their trade excursion
down through southern Arizona and
Sonora Invaders from the north will
visit El Paso on a similar mission.
The whole story, as given In the Den-
ver Post, Is printed below:
Denver to El Paso and return,
144.50, Including meals and sleeping
car berths for five days. That Is the
rate which has been obtained from
the railroad companies for the big
trade excursion to be given in Janu-
ary by the Chamber of Commerce and
the Denver Real Estate exchange,
and which will Include the city’s most
proponent business men among its
passengers.
According to the plans now made
and approved yesterday by a Joint
committee from the two commercial
bodies, a special train will leave Den-
ver at 9 a. m. Monday, January 1st.
That train will consist of five Pullman
sleepers, one smoker, one baggage
car and a diner, and will have a total
capacity of 260 persons.
The first stop will be made at Ra-
ton, N. M„ going opt of Denver on the
Santa Fe. Then Las Vegas, Santa Fe,
Albuquerque and El Paso will be visit-
ed In turn, stops of from three to
eight.hours being made at each point.
Prom El Paso the Texas & Pacific
will carry the train to Pecos, Tex.,
where the Santa Fe will again take
charge and carry the Denver delega-
tion to Carlsbad, Roswell and Ama
rlllo. From Amarillo the Colorado &
Southern railroad will be used to
Trlntdad, the trip home from there
being made via the Santa Fe. with
stops at La Junta, Rocky Ford, Pueblo
and Colorado Springs. Denver will be
reached at 9 a. m. Saturday, January
21at. In addition to the points men-
tioned, stops at every other principal
town along the entire route will be
made' for the purpose of distributing
Denver literature, of which half a car-
load will be carried.
Receptions En Route.
Business men and commercial bod-
ies in towns along the route have al-
ready signified their desire adequate-
ly to welcome the visitors, and It is
likely that at every city the Denver-
ites will be met with a counter-pro-
gram of entertainment. Prior to leav-
ing Denver a definite program will be
laid out, whereby one or more speech-
es on Denver—Denver's energy, Den-
ver's beauty, Denver's hospitality,
Denver's progress—will be delivered
by prominent citizens at every stop.
By the publication of program and
itinerary, also, merchants who are
planning to take In the trip will be
able to arrange In advance for inter-
views with <thelr out-of-town custom-
ers.
Genuine Interest in the excursion is
being taken by men In all lines of
business. The entire district to be
covered Is In Denver's logical trade
territory, though It is largely a terri-
tory which has been allowed to Ho fal-
low because of the absence of suitable
freight rates between Denver and
some of the points to be touched
Considerable interest In the project
Is also being taken by the Santa Fe
Railroad company, which taps all the
region to be visited, and it Is more
than probable that a readjustment of
freight tariffs to those localities will
follow as a direct result of the trip.
Business will be the keynote of the
entire trip, and every man In the
party will lie pledged to scatter Den-
ver sunshine all the way to El Paso
and back.
It. is possible, also, that a band of
fifteen or twenty pieces may be taken
along. Le Honey, who Is working un
der the direction of the Joint commit-
tee, has offered to transport the musi-
cians free of charge.

Football Meeting.
Last evening the Athletic football
team held a called meeting In Manager
Laughlln’g office and discussed the
proposed game with Fort Bliss for next
Sunday. THw~ club will go into the
field In a badly crippled state, but will
undoubtedly give a good account of
itself before the game is over. Man-
ager Laughlln IS now completing ar-
rangements to take his champions to
meet the team of the Phoenix Indian
school In Phoenix on Monday. Janu
ary 2nd.
There Is little doubt but that the
local boys will go after big game In
February. They are now maturing
plan to get suitable training quarters
and go Into training to play the win-
ners of the Berkeley and Louisiana
university contest, which will be pulled
oil in this city during the month of
February. It is very probable that the
expense for preparing for this game
will be defrayed by popular subscrip-
tion.
William Glover, the Pullman car
porter who was arrested Monday for
breaking Into a house on Santa Fe
street, was yesterdny out on bond on
this charge, but not until after he had
made the acquaintance of the polios.
While he was at the station one of the
force noticed bow very much he re-
sembled a picture and a description
cf a negro who was wanted In San
Antonio for burglary. The local office
bad received a circular giving a print-
ed description of the negro and asking
that he be arrested if found.
The resemblance was so close that
the local officers thought that It would
1m? a wise matter to arrest Glover
again and hold him until the case
could be investigated. Acordlngly
Officer Franco anil Jailer Jas. Dwyer
started out to get him.
They met Glover In front of the Fair
store and stopped him. intending to
take him Into custody, when he bolted
down the street at full speed. He ran
east to Stanton, down Stanton to
Texas, through the Bassett lumber
yard and east on St. Louis street, with
the officers and quite a crowd of per-
sons in full swing behind him.
He wag finally headed Into a small
building on St. Louis street and cap-
tured by I. Putz, who was reinforced
a few seconds by the officers.
Glover was taken to the station,
where he was locked up charged with
being a fugitive from justice pending
an Investigation of the case.

Paso street saloon yesterday morning
and as a result Charley Parker and
H. L. Houck have been arrested, were
given their preliminary trial yester-
day afternoon before Justice Marshall

jury under $600 bond, which they
gave.
Yesterday morning, early, Officer
Duran, when passing the saloon In
question with W. T. Boone, colored
In his custody, noticed a perform-
ance which excited his suspicions. He
hurried to the Jail with Boone and re-
turned to El Paso street, picking up
Officer Word of North El Paso street
on his way. Together they went to
the saloon, which they found to lie
locked. In an alley near there they
found the unconscious body of Hazel.
He seemed to be in a drunken stupor
and was aroused and taken to the
station. There It was found that his
watch and money were gone. Com-
plaints were sworn out for the two
men, whom the officer had rccog
nized, and they were arrested by Of
fleer Franco yesterday morning. One
of the men Is said to be the bartender
in the saloon and the other is the
driver of a beer wagon. Hazel claims
that he is short $40 and his watch.

spect. in that he is so perfectly hon

sold a box of apples, he lost the ad

and spent more than his profit on t^e
