AN END TO WARFARE.

Difficulties by Arbitration.

The American Nations Will Settle Their
Difficulties by Arbitration.
WASHINGTON, April 9.-The Pan-Amer-
lean Conference is drawing to a close.
The committee on general welfare, has
agreed upon plan OF arbitration for
the settlement of difficulties between
American nations, which was reported
to the conference today and adopted.
The plan is that whenever any differ
ence arises between two or more OF the
American republics, it shall be referred
to the government of some other Repub-
lie for settlement, without appeal to
arms. In case the parties at issue can
not agree upon single arbitrator, each
is allowed to name one, and those named
are to select an umpire. This, in the
minds of the President and Mr.. Blaine,
is the most important subject considered
by the conference, as it is likely to put a
stop to the wars that have prevailed so
frequently between the South American
nations, retarding the growth and pros
perity of all.

Mines or Arizona

hr. Chss. Carpenter, of Prescott, ont
 of the prominent mining men of Ari
 soma, passed through the city yester day on his return from sD extended eastern trip. He has been engaged ir mining iu this territory and Arizous for 8 number of years past, and is vel qualified Co give an opinion in rega I'd te the business. Speaking of the min ing prospects of our neighboring terri
 tory, Mir. Carpenter said to a reporter
 Arizona is the richest mineral esun- try in the world today, bat it is, as yet, com paratively speaking, entirely unde- velohed. The general depression that has prevailed over all mining sections for the last three or four years has effected Arizona more than any other section Of the United States, for the reassn that we are obliged to ship eur products SO far that, with the low prices of silver and lead which have prevailed, we could not get our ores to
 market, and consequently all bat the very richest of orr mines had 10 close down. But the railroads have reduced their rates, and the prices ol lead and silver have gone up, and thus many good mines that have lain idle for years are now resuming work at a profit. Although the revival in the mining in- dusiry did not set in till neer the mid diesoi the year, yeature to predic; that the output of the mines of Arizona
 will be greater for 1890 than it was du- ring the entire period of three years previous "-Albuquerque Democrat.

Mere About Ar,.ora on,..

| In the chaMber os com naerce exhibit
 there are two glass showcases, the in- teriot of which are liAed with most gor- | geous specimens of Arizona onyx. The pieces are cur in ali sorts of fantastic shapes, and range from an eighth of an inch to two inches in thickness. and from few square inches to foot or two m superficial dimensions. In their
 markings they are as varied as the hg-
 ares m kaleidoscope, no two being
 exactly alike. Some are black and
 white, some pure white, some of beau
 tiiul pale green tint, some solid brick
 red, and others mottied with one or all
 ot these tints. There is about every
 known color and tint si color repre-
 sented. The polish oi the stone is like
 piats-glass. In the thinner slabs it is translucent and almost transparent. The markings on opposite sides of the same pieces are often quite different.
 These specimens come from deposit
 located in Ya-apai county, Arizona,
 twenty-eight miles from Prescott. The
 rock lies in laminated strata, ike lime stone, the layers being from a fex inches to two feet'tbick. At one place where there has been s break in the formation it can be traced to a depth of fifty feet. The deeper the pensira- ton from the surface the more solid
 becomes the formation. and there is no telling how deep it may go. The onyx can he taken out in slabs oi any desired size. It Is worked about as easily as mai ble, ana is hard enough to ke sus- eeptible of the finest polish. The preba- bility is that 1t will entirely supplant marble for slats on fine furniture, in the ornamentatien of the finest houses and in the manufacture of tournaments.
 The specimens at the chamber of commerce will remain there only few days longer, ss they are to be shipped east. Everybody who enjoys a thing sf beauty should take look at them.
 Aaron Mason. one of the original owners of the famous Silver King mine, in Arizona, which has turned out be- tween $7 eco eco and @s DOG, ,0e0 in sil- yer, and c. A. Smith, the well known mining broker ot this city, have secured an exclusive contract for the sale ot this property, and they propose to take he samples with them to Chicago or New York for exhibition. The best marble commands frem $s ts $6 per cubic foot, snd Mexican onyx sells for | rom s to $20 per cubic foot in ihe 'ough. As there are many millions ,i cubic feet of onyx in the mine which dessrs. Mason and Smith represent, it s evident that the property will go yell up ''in the pictures. Los Ange- es Times.
