DAILY GAZETTE FRIDAY, JULY 15, 1881. U.tZr.TTK Cil.EAKISUft. Work on the new Presbyterian Church has been resumed. Mills & Hadley are the latest nub-m-ribers to tlie Telephone Exchange. A number of drummers were in town yesterday which Indicates a little mor! life in business. Hell & Co.'s price list of specialties in another column will attract the atten tion of grocery buyers. Water is commencing to get scarce at the A. (X: I', front, and it is said that work will have to be suspended in a short time, if rain does not come. The lack of water has been a great draw back in the construction of this road. A colored man by the name of Roy was arrested by Sheriff Romero in this city for desertion from the Ninth Cav alry. Theft is also charged against him. He will be taken to Santa Fe to day. Kelly ."the bum,1' as a rustler in a Santa Fe dance hall has been known, turns out to have deserted from the 13th Infantry at Fort Union live years ago. He was arrested when he failed to heed the warning of the officers to leave town, and will probably spend two years in ihe military prison at Fort Leavenworth. Thirty-nine soldiers from Davenport Island, off New York harbor, passed through yesterday bound for Santa Fe. A majority of them were new recruits, and are to be assigned to the different com panics of ihe l'ith Infantry, sta tioned in Ihe Territory. One of the new recruits jumped the fold at Kansas City. The men w ere in charge of Major Swan, Major Cegyet. surgeon; and Lieuten ant Johnson. It is reported that Hilly "the Kid" is now on the march up the Pecos with a band of Texans. They are on their way to the Red river country, and it is surmised by some that Hilly is on the jr lookout for old enemies with whom he intends to right ohl scores. lie has dis guised himself as a Mexican by making a lavish use of paint. If reports be true it looks as though Hilly was about to inaugurate a summer campaign. Joe O'Brien, who will be remembered by m -.ny friends in Las Vegas, has opened a. tirst-elass saloon on Center Street, one door south of the plaza in Socorro. It is finished up in elegant style, the bar mirror alone costing $-100. Everything else in proportion. The many readers of the (Jakttk in Socor ro will fiiul no better place or more courteous gentleman to wait upon them than Joe O'Brien. His friends from a distance will always visit him. A beautiful hanging basket made by the prisoners in the jail is hanging in the show window of Herbert's new drug store. It id a tasty and neat piece of workmanship and would be an orna ment to a parlor or sitting room. It will be rattled off Saturday night at Wolf it I'utnian's saloon, a chance in the raffle being lixed at a dollar. It will be a nice thing to have and will help the prisoners to secure some ad ditional necessaries and comforts of life. Mexican Central Activity. The Mexican Central Railway Com pany is making preparations for con structing and equipping ils line from Paso del Norte to the city of Chihuahua in good style. The steel rails for the road are purchased in Europe and. arc landed at New Orleans, from thence being taken to St. Louis and then hur ried forward to the A. T. & S. F. road, and over this line to El Paso. An aver age of twelve cars of steel per day passes over the line. Ties, bridge tim ber and telegraph poles are also being rushed to the front. An average of from 'JO to 25 cars of such material pass over the line every day. They are mainly shipped from Kingman and Levy, and between (loneta and Lamy Junction. Two trains are daily em ployed in picking up material. The company ha contracted with a car manufactory in Si. Louis to build LOUD cars lor its use, consisting of coal, box and stock burr.. These are sent to El Paso as fast as they are completed. An immense amount of material is already on hand waiting to be crossed to the material yard to be built across the Rio Crande on the Mexican side. lllllllMIM III THH-0M0. According to Ihe last, biickboard up from the Vinita mail lines there is.cein siderablo ill feeling existing among cat tle men who congregate at Tascoso. A few days since a number of Colfax Counter cattle raisers were in Tasceiso, wlie-iv a considerable rumpus was got up. The Colfax men were in a saleion when Campbell, eif Campbell & Austin, came in. Considerable whiskey was on board, some word passeel, and Campbell drew his pistol and swung her in the air. A general show elown ef pistols was the immediate result, when a friend of Campbell caught his pisten and took it away from him. There was no shooting, but a general hammering ensued, in which Campbell get the worst ef it. A wild rumor w-i.s current last evening that a general fight hael occurre'el among the! cowboys, in which live or six were killed, but it was not believeel. DF.XVi:ir OPPORTl'XITY. A Chance for I.am Yecaet rdiI Trinidad lo Corporate with I)cnr. Railroad questions so intimately af fect commerce that they may almost be considered commercial questions. The fortunes of merchants turn on the man agement of these great arteries ef trade. The tariffs, cut ; rates awl changi'S of rates must immediately con cern the tradesmen. But the general ceñirse; etf railroael constructions alse) virtually Interest him. In this connec tion it may be proper to say that there is a report in commercial circle's that the Denver & New Orleans road is to bo h' fleeted fremi its original purpose, and instead of being pushed in an air line to the sea. is to degenerate into a needless rival of the hie Grande, anel is to gei through Pue-blo to the coal fields about Trinidad. All the gooel it can eh this community is to reeluce the price eif ee)al until a poed compromise is effected. It is sa'ul that the air line to La Juntáis impracticable-, but it is suspe'cteel that this is merely a pretext for abandoning the original scheme. A roael te Pueblo will not give us any more direct con nection with Santa Fe Jhan we now have. If ' it is extended on to New Or leans from Trinidael it will not be an air line, anel unless it is an air line we will not be able to import from Europe, i it competition with Chicago. And yet it was this grand achievement that was the primary object óf the New Orleans roael. Den ver Tribune. After all, it is not lifting that Denver should bemoan the abandonment of the projected route. The Denver it New Orleans road is backed by enterprising men, who with Gov. Evans ought to be able to raise sufficient money to carry out. any feasible railroad project. Den ver has sufliedent capital realized freim the South Park R. R. operation to begin the; construction ef a line that would be? of gival commercial benefit to her mer chants. Let the La Junta air line be abandoni'el by all means; build the line on to Trinidad, but elo not stop there. The Gazette has advocated the exten sion of Ihe D. & 1!. (í. R'yfrom El Moro south via Cimarron anel Mora to Las Vegas and thence down the rich Pecos valley. Should this line be exteneled lo a connec tion with the narrow gauge system leading to Galvestem, and the Palmer Sullivan Mexican system, it would be of incalculable benefit to Denver. But if the D. & R. G. does not, extend its line, then the business men of Denver should see to it that the Denver it New Orleans road is built to Trinidael, and then along the foothills by easy wate-r grades to Las Vegas through Colfax, Mora and San Miguel counties. There would be a gooel local trade all the way. The line would run through a country rich in mineral and agricultural re senirces, to say nothing e;f immense flocks ami lierels that would be shipped to market by this route. It would place Las Ve'gas in easy communication with Denver. This city is now Ihe base of supplies for a vast extent eif country, anel our trade would be Denver's if she would but reach out for it. At this point the head waters of the Pecos are struck, and following elown the valley the road would pass through one of the richest sections of the West... It is a valley capable of supporting a large agricultural population. It would be in easy access of the coming great cam) of White Oaks, and the rich Nogals anel White Mountain districts. By this route a connection with the Texas it Pacific Railway could be made at Pope's crossing, where that roael will cross the Pecos River sometime during August. A temporary connection with New Orleans could thus be made, and the road continue its construetiem till the gulf was ultimately reached. This project is considered so feasible thpt a movement lias been set on foot by citi zens of Las Vegas and Colfax anel Mora Counties to build :i road from El Moro to a connection with the Texas it Pac ific. Trinidad has manifested a dispos ition to co-operale, and her citizens are likely lo lend material aid. The peo ple of this Territory are bound to have the road built, and it is Denver's oppor tunity to assist us in diverting the New Orleans road as wc have intimated. Noiiorn'a Wraith. Mr. W. Godwin Moody of Boston after spending four or live days in Las Vegas left lor hemic yesferelay. Mr. Mooely represents a company of the "Hub" that has valuable mining inter ests in Sonora, lie was induced to go there first about twenty years ago by reading old Jesuit ri'cetrds that related almost fabulous tales of the rich miner al region in the neighborhood of the head waters of the Oposura river, a tributary of the Yaejui. The mines were reported to have been worked by the Spaniards 150 years before and the1 output ofjpreeious metals, even by their rude means, was immense. On the strength of the reputed richness of the district as related by these old Jesuit records, Mr. Moody headed a little ex pedition of twenty-eight armed mem who went into what is know n as t he Na cosari district, e)f which the nourishing litttle city of the same! name is now the centre of active mining operations. For one hundred and thirty years it had not been safe to live in the district on ac count of its being overrun by Indians. But Mr. Mooely feiuud the legends cein firmetl, and returning there a few years ago he made arrangements for elevel oping the properties that -he was able to secure for Boston capitalists. He has had charge of the work for them, and new returns to Boston to comVr with them. In an interview with him Mr. Mooely expressed to a Gazette repre sentative his great faith that with prop- er development Sonora could be made to produce as much mineral wealth as , California. This statement appeared to be so strangely at variance with what other have repeirteel concerning the State of Sonora that we expressed some doubt, lest it might lie exaggerateel. Mr. Moody thereupon proceeded to ex plain mere fully: "I don't ne;e'd to modify my statement, but for present purposes it woulel be epiite as well to state things in more moderate terms. The great mineral wealth of Mexico lies in the Sierra Maelre range, ami there are numerous rich elistricts in So nora where envelopments are being made, that give handsome returns. I am epiite familiar with the mining in elustry of the Republic anel I have: no , hesitation in saying that with gooel railway facilities the mineral proeluct would be very great. Railway facilities, for transport ing machinery and supplies are requi site for developing the mines. Were this afforded us, I am certain that So nora couhl be; made to produce yearly an amount equal to that produced in Mexico at the present time, or $2,1,000, 000.' In a few years, 1 think this woulel be largely increased, till by great activ ity it would reach the sum of one hun dred million dollars annually in gold, silver and copper.1 PERSONA!.: John H.

Morley, Chief Engineer of the Sonora Railroad, on his return to his post last winter was presenteel by the' employes of the company with a most elegant ami valuable gold watch and chain. It is a hunter's case beautifully finished and ornamented. On one side is engraved his initials and on the in side opposite, "Presented to W. R. Morley, Chief Engineer e)f the Ferro carril de Sonora, by the employees eif the company.'" It is a neat testimonial anel indicates the esteem in which Mr. Morle-y is held by the men wlio are building a railroad under many elitlt- eulth's. : ' ' IiM-roiVHin- Traffic. The traffic e.f the A. T. & S. F. Pi. R. is constantly increasing. To gain some idea of the amount of business transact ed, a representative of the Gazette yesterday called at the office of Mr. W. J. Sharp, chief train dispatcher of the Southern division, between Las Vegas and San Marcial, and including the Santa Fe branch. Mr. Sharp was found up lo his ears in business, it being no easy matter to run the number of trains that he; lewks after over the 252 miles of line over which he has supervision. When he was at leisure he gave us the following record of business. On Tues day, for example, one hundred and eighty-five car loaels were hauled south, and 202 empty and thirteen loadeel ears drawn north.' Yesterday there were twenty-eight A. T. & S. F. trains mov ing over the line in different directions, two of these being express trains. Be sides the'se there were! five work trains on different sections of the line. There j we're two express trains and two freight j trains on the Santa Fe branch. 1 he A. it P. R. U. uses that pertion of the track from Albuquerque to A. & P. Junc tion, a distance of twelve miles, ami over this action there were two pas senger trains anel four freight trains running. This indicates the growing business of the road, anel is part proof of the development of the Territory. A lllg Drive. Hon. T. Romero got back yesterday from his ranch at Atarque Canyon, where he hael been superintending the starting eif his herds to Feirt Doelge. He sends sixteen thousand ewes anel lambs to be sold.
