Capital
Special to The Times.
Mexico City, Mex„ Nov. 24.—"Cap-
italists will not be frightened by the
sensational and untrue stories that
are being sent out concerning condi-
tions in Mexico,” said Manuel M.
Alegre yesterday.
"I know of a number of sales of,
haciendas that have been made re-
cently to foreign companies. One on
the Isthmus of Tehuantepec was a
farm of 220,000 acres." It is be-
lieved by many that Mr. Alegre will
be the next governor of the state of
Veracruz. He has resigned his posi-
tion as secretary of the Constitutional
Progressive party.
"Veracruz.” he continued, "might
be called the home of foreigners, for
thousands have settled there. With-
in the boundaries of the state we
have every climate, from perpetual
snow to the tropics. Yellow fever,
at one time the scourge of the entire
coast of tho Gulf of Mexico, is now
almost as completely eradicated as
in the southern part of the United
States. We still have malaria in the
lowlands, but it is only a question
of time when the mosquito, the cause
of the sickness, will be driven out.
“The opening of the Pans#ia canal
will no doubt give us better steam-
ship service and the Mexican gov-
ernment will improve the many
natural harbors. I lived seven years
in the United States and while I was
never in Florida I have been told
that it is a state of mostly pine trees,
sand dunes and million dollar hotels.
Wealthy Americans spend the win-
ters there because it is supposed to
be warm. There is no other recom-
mendation. Now if some enterpris-
ing company would build one of
these hotels near, say. Cordoba,
think of the attractions that would
be offered. Weather neither hot nor
cold, most luxuriant vegetation and
some of the grandest scenery in the
world. Then for the table, fresh
fruits and vegetables, game and fish
In abundance.
“First, we must have first-class
passenger service between New Or-
leans and Veracruz. The distance is
only about 000 miles, which a good
ship could cover in two and a half
davs. From New York City to Cor-
doba in five days, sixty glorious
hours at sea.
"Should11 bo elected governor of
Veracruz, I will extend a most cordial
invitation to ail Americans, and for-
eigners need have no fear that their
rights will be interfered with.”

ROSWELL ALLEGED ROBBERS
Failed of Conviction When Arraigned
For Trial.
Special to The Times.
Roswell, N. M., Nov. 24.—Caleb and
Ira Taylor, two negroes who were
charged with robbery on the accusa-
tion that they took a ten dollar "bill’’
from Juan Brady when Juan took
the money out of his pocket to pay for
a game of pool, were today found not
guilty and discharged. It was claim-
ed that one negro snatched the mo-
ney and that the other poked Juan in
tho ribs with a six-shooter and told
him tb "keep his mouth shut.” Tho
^evidence showed that Brady dropped
'his "tenner" on the floor, that there
was a scramble for it, participated in
by all the pool room loungers and
that the money was missing when ’he
smoke of battle settled; but tho evid-
ence against the negroes failed to
come out.
The first bootlegger to be fined In
Roswell in many a day was in court
today. Henry Brockman was the man
and $225 and costs was the finding of
the court. Bootlegging has been very
t'searee In Roswell since the killing of
City Marshal Roy Woofter last sum-
mer. *
Chance Bros., of Dexter, today
closed a deal with the Dexter State
bank, contracting to sell them 100
tons of alfalfa at $10 per ton. The
hay is now in storage in warehouses
and will be held there by the bank un-
til April 15, to be sold then at spring
prices.

orate preparations for the annual cha-
rity hall, to bo held Monday night at
tho Armory. The proceeds will go
to pay for the annual Christmas sup-
ply of clothing and eatables for the
poor of this community. Roswell has
the smallest number of poor, compar-
ed to its size, of any city in the south-
west.
Paul C. Wilson, for many years a
lumberman in this city, has sold his
lumber interests and is going into
the sheep business. He bought 1,200
sheep today from J. L- Leonard and

WOULD PLANT COTTON
IN PIMA OOUNTY.
Special to The Times.
Tucson, Artz., Nov. 23.—Can this
section of Arizona raise cotton? The
experience of Thos. Walimark, near
the head of the Sabino canyon, this
season, as shown in the exhibition of
cotton plants which he made at the
first Pima county fair, would indi-
cate that it can. He exhibited two
very' fine cotton plants, both contain-
ing an abundance of fine, long, white
fibre. Himself and parents, who are
from the south, are also of the opin-
ion, from observation and experience
elsewhere, that it can.
But can it be raised to commercial
advantage? That is a question that
others as well as himself would like
to answer. Commercial profit de-
pends so much upon other things
than cultural growth that it is a
harder and more important question
to answer. The successful interest
that has been shown It It, not only
some years ago in Arizona but parti-
cularly in the last two years in Pima,
Graham, Maricopa and other coun-
ties, by experienced men, is making
it a practical question which presses
for solution. The cost of picking has
always been one of the obstacles to
commercial success, but that is said
to have been solved by a machine.
Among those In Pima county who
are desirous of solving it is J. ~C.
Wheat well and favorably known in
Tucson, being a practical rancher
near whd was in the Chamber of
Commerce yesterday, looking for
other men who are similarly interest-
ed and who would be willing to help
him bear the expense of such cultiva-
tion and commercial management as
would be likely to enable them to
find out. To this end there must be
sufficient acreage cultivated, and
there must be enough initial capital
back of the enterprise to prevent it
from commercial failure after a cul-
tural success has been achieved., Mr.
Wheat believes he has sufficient well
situated land to make the culture a
success on a sufficiency 1arg» «cale,
but naturally he does not want to
put his whole or too large a share of
his own time Into it if he can find
others sufficiently interested in the
project to share it with him on the
understanding of sharing also In the
successes of it that may he achievod.
Mr. Wheat's visit to the office of the
Chamber of Commerce yesterday was
of a preliminary nature, but It is like-
ly to be followed by more organized
and energetic action If sufficient in-
terest is shown by others.

Victims of Fevers In Lonely Territory
Call It El Dorado.
Special 1o The Times.
Mexico City, Mex., Nov, 24. —
"Quintana Roo is the El Dorado of
the fable and at the same time tho
land of death,” said Amado Romero
yesterday in speaking of the section
where he contracted a dangerous
fever from which he is yet suffering.
He says that hundreds of persons
die front disease superinduced by the
heat there while the crude bullets of
tho natives take off many more for-
eigners, While this is true, ho says
the amount of money which can be
made there is really incalculable and
that this very fact leads many people
to speculate with the lives of tt#*
natives, soldiers or whoever may
serve their ends.
Government Drug Store.
He recounts that there Is a drug
store subsidized by tho government
so that all sick people, soldiers, pris-
oners and others may get medicines
without paying anything for them,
but that the drug store is empty.
Mr. Romero tells a horrible tale
of the number of deaths which oc-
cur daily, from eight to ten, and
that as the soil Is rooky the corpses
are frequently buried in a sitting
position to save labor of digging.
Sometimes the heads are left above
ground.
Exploit Laborers.
That the agents of large concerns
exploit the laborers in a criminal
manner Is asserted by Mr. Romero.
He says one empresario. is allowed
fifteen cents a day for the food of
soldiers or> prisoners in his care, and
that while they work in a terrible
heat they are furnished rations con-
sisting of only a little soup and
crackers. For want of food they
die while the contractor continues to
make money.
In speaking of the government
railway which is being constructed
at a cost of $4500 a month, Mr. Ro-
mero says that the government pays
$2.50 for every tie. while these can
be bought for $1. He charges that
the government is furnishing soldiers
and prisoners to do the work and
that these men are dying daily owing
to the climate, bad treatment, over-
work and want of food. He says that
prisoners condemned to life impris-
onment in other parts are not treated
as are these men who are sent there
by the government to labor.
BRILLIANT CLOSING
ON CONDESA TRACK
Iciness Entirely Melted Away From
Patrons of the Sport.
Special In The Times.
Mexico City. Mex. Nov. 24. — The
fall meeting at the Condesa race
track closed brilliantly. Before a
crowd which fully equalled that of
Sunday In numbers and elegance of
dress. Marques de San Roman, un-
der his allotment of 117 pounds, won
the re-running of the derby, a handi-
cap at a mile and five-sixteenths.
Wiggins was second and Alerta third.
Shooting Star, the winner of the
derby was not equal to giving her
field any where from ten to twenty
pounds of actual weight and could do
no better than fourth.
Far more striking than the racing
Itself was the changed attitude of
the crowd. For the first time during
the meeting the icy reserve and in-
different to the character of the fin-
ishes was transformed to an enthu-
siasm which manifested itself in
shouting and rooting of the real old-

fashioned kind. The outburst at the
finish of the handicap which brought
together the derby field far surpass-
ed the rather perfunctory applause
which greeted the winning the
deiby itself. interest in the race
was kindlod by the fact that the start
was right in front of the mand and
with the colors showing bright and
clear around the first turn the crowd
had no trouble In picking out the
horses and following them through
the changes of the race. The result,
was that even those without glasses
knew exactly what was going on in
the drive through the stretch and it
was not necessary to wait until the
numbers were hung out to know
which horse had won.
More notable still was the fact that
the local spectators who did tin-
shouting were Mexicans us well as
the foreigners and with the ice once
broken in the handicap, the good old
yell which marks the finish on the
American courts, burst forth on
something more than a suggestion of
real noise after the finish of the
other events.

Carlsbad, N. M., Nov. 24.— I’* cob
! Water Users' association of tho C'arda-
i bad project, of which every farther
| under the project must he a niembir
! to get water, haH been full of discord
for many months. .V week ugo it
came to an open rupture In the board
of directors. At a special meeting ca>’-
ed for the purpose the hoard depose 1
its president and elected VV, B. Wil-
son to serve out the term. The share*
| holders have taken a lively Interest in
I the fight and were present in force at
! the last meeting of the directors. The
i new president. Mr. Wilson, has lived
i here about twenty years and fully
i qualified to fill the difficult posi-
tion.
The Improvements that the reclam-
ation service is making on the Carls-
bad project are being pushed. As
many teams and men as can be ad-
vantageously employed are pushing
tho work on McMillan reservoir. Tho
capacity of the reservoir will lie ma-
terially Increased and will hold en-
ough water to cover the entire pro-
ject over two feet deep. The im-
proved splllmays at Avalon, the di-
version reservoir, are also being rush-
ed. All the work is expected to be
completed In time to fill both reser-
voirs be fore the irrigation season op-
ens In March.
The supervising engineer, Louis C.
Hill, is expected in a few days and
he will spend several days inspecting
the project and ronfer with the water
users on a possible extension of fha
project The matter of enlarging tho
project has been under consideration
for several years; but the funds of
the service! were too low to undertake
any ifrge amount of work. The water
users, however, feel that steps should
be taken to prepare the way for the
larger project, that tho work can ice
rushed whenever funds are available,
for the construction of reservoir num-
ber three.

• PLACED UNDER ARREST
i .Special to The Time*.
Las Vegas, N. M., Nov. 24.—Carry-
ing heavy revolvers which they dis-
charged at Intervals, three strange
i men were arrested early this morn-
ing near Azul by Deputy Sheriff En-
rique Sena. Sena's attention was at-
tracted to the men by the sound of
their revolvers, lie is inclined to be-
lieve they were firing at him. al-
; though none of the bullets earn*
j close to him. The men declare they
j are residents of Mexico. Officers
here are inclined to believe they were
on the way to Join a, band of Reyls-
tas, who are conducting a revolt
against the Madero regime,
j The men gavo their names is
' I’rimo Tapia, Juan Goimo and Lean-
dro Ancors. They said they were on
their way from Denver to El Paso.
| The rnen will he held under a
i charge of carrying deadly weapon*
and probably will be indicted by the
| grand jury, which is now In session.
■ Officer Sena and a companion were
j on their way to Los Alamos w hen
i they discovered the three strangers.
The men acted In such a suspicious
manner that they will ho investiga-
ted closely. It is thought they may
have been contemplating committing
a serious crime or were endeavoring
to escape from some penal institu-
tion or the clutches of officers in
Baton <>r Trinidad.
