1T Is NOT TRUE.

There is no truth, whatever in the
report originating in San Diego that
the Gonzales concession covering the
Sulphur mines in the Oocopah region
in Lower California, will be forfeited
in the next three weeks, on account
of the owners not having complied
with the terms of the concession. To
the contrary every proviso in the
contract has been strictly complied
with. The owners have been waiting
on the Mexican officials. Inspector
Y. Sanchez only completed his maps
and report on the I'd inst, when they
were forwarded to the city of Mexico,
where not only the survey, but the
inspection of Mr.. Sanchez we're ap-
proved by the Secretary of the In
terror. The report that the concession
is to be forfeited, no doubt originates
with those who wish that itmight be,
in order that they may secure the
property by relocation. 1t will be
cold day when they are able to do so.

THE SALTON SEA.

The water began to run into Salton
lake on the 9Th inst. through two
streams. The east one, which Patton,
Carter and Converse went down last
year is made up from Carter river and
Riley slough, which flow past Cooks
Wells, Seven Wells, Gardeners and
Alamo, and from the water that gath
ers in the Alamo basin from other
sources The other, or west stream
down which Charlie Thiesen foated
down few days ago, derives it's sup
ply of water from the Indian Wells
basin, which is supplied from Lake
Julullu and the two south branches of
New river, both of which from Black
Butte and Lake Julullu run north
west into that basin. The mouths of
these two streams are about five miles
apart, while their sources are 25
miles from each other. AS soon as
the rim of sand which divides the
Indian Wells, and the Alamo basins
from that at Salton, was cut through,
The Arizona sentinel., 1892-07-30

the vast area of water lying to the
south fell three feet in two days
showing that it had found an outlet
and was using it. Since then the
water in Salton lake has been grad
ually rising. For the past week the
rise has amounted to only about an
inch in "a hours. The water in the
great basins has fallen to the present
date about four feet. There is no
danger of Salton lake filling up this
season, although a gentleman who has
Just been across the country from
Volcano springs to the southwest in
forms the SENTINEL that large vol
umes of water were pouring down
both streams as late as Monday last.
As the surface of the lake to be filled
increases in area daily it requires a
constantly increasing supply of water
to raise it even its one inch per day.
AS the supply is rapidly decreasing,
the water ct Salton will soon begin to
grow less and less.

NOTES ON FRUIT.

The advance during the past few
days in the prices offered for fruit Of
all kinds, caused by the failure in the
fruit crop in Delaware and Mary
land, especially, and in the east gen
orally, will affect every family that
uses either dried or canned fruits.
Green apricots which were worth
800 per ton advanced to $50 and
now cannot be had for less than $40
per ton. Peaches that sold for $40
have advanced to $50 per ton.
Prunes that were sold for $35 are
now worth $50 per ton and prices are
still advancing in the California fruit
markets. There were shipped from
Southern California during the year
ending June 30th, 1892, by the Santa
Fe Railway Co., 1902 carloads of
fruit, 776 carloads of vegetables, IS of
walnuts and 266 of wines. We have
not received the figures of the ship
ments made by the Southern Pacific
Company. The above figures speak
well for a section of country that was
formerly considered to be a barren
desert waste. Irrigation has done it.
