MONTEREY, n. L., Feb. 10, '96.
To the Daily LIGHT:
About two years ago General
Geronimo Trevino, Joseph A. Rob-
ertson and Lie Emeterio de la Gar
"a, received a concession from the
Mexican government to build a
railroad from Trevfno station, at
the junction Of the Monterey and
Mexican Gulf and the Mexican In
ternational railroads, to the Sierra
Mojado, and from there to the Gulf
OF California on the Pacific, enter
ing either at Altata or Mazatlan.
The road was to be operated by the
promoters Of the Gulf railroad, but
as sthat road has passed out OF
their hands, General Trevino and
associates have sold their conces-
sion to American capitalists,
Messrs. Morris R. Locke and B. G..
Faurot. 1t is expected that these
gentlemen will soon commence &C
tive work on the road.
During the past week a number
OF new buildings have been started.
The Monterey red brick is the
chief building material.
On the 7th, the LIGHT correspon-
dent, received an invitation to at
tend the marriage OF Capt. Guada-
lupe Cantu Trevino, a staff officer
OF President Porfirio Diaz, to Miss
Eletura Trevino,of this city, niece
Of General Geronimo Trevino. The
marriage ceremony took place at
9 o'clock Saturday morning at the
Holy Trinity Catholic church,
Rev. E. A. Antoine officiating, as.
sisted by the Rev. j. NJ. Troncy
The captain was dressed in his
uniform while the bride was
dressed in white satin with a white
veil.
The ceremony was very impres
sive. Only the immediate friend:
OF the bride were present. Aftel
the services they repaired to I'll,
residence OF General Trevino wher,
a reception was held. They will
make the City Of Mexico their fu
ture home.

CAMP MISERY, ONToSAGoN, September
Yesterday the militia squad did the
hardest days work since pitching camp
here. Sixty-seyen tents were put up be-
lore o'clock p. m. besides the building
OF several floors, etc. Col. Avery has an
other big job cut out for the blue coats
today and that is the putting up OF
sixty more tents and the building OF
floors Tor the same. The boys were
called at o'clock this morning and
were at work before Z.
Last evening was spent very pleasant
ly by all. A big fire was built at the end
oil the company street and around this
the soldier boys gathered and proceeded
to pass away the evening in the enjoy
ment oil social pipe and singing snatch

O'Clock some twenty or thirty visitors,
ladies and gentlemen. came into camp,
among them being members OF an excel
lent quartette-Messrs. Havey, Cox, Nc.
Pherson and Goodwin. The first gentle.
man is conductor on the st. Paul road
the second, express messenger on the
same line, and the two last named are
lumber inspectors and scalers. The four
gentlemen are thoroughbreds, witty and
consequently jolly entertainers and were
received with hearty greeting from the
boys. Songs were sung, stories told and
Jokes cracked until the hour OF tattoo
when the gathering broke up-the yisi
tors vending their way homeward
through the ruins and the soldier lads
turning In under the folds OF their blank

Copper.

The copper cirular under date of Sep
TENDER 2, issued monthly by ID. Houston
X Co., the metal brokers of New York,
says:
August opened with the market for
copper fairly steady at IL cents for Lske,
Early in the month several sales we're re-
ported at the Metal Exchange at 11.O5
a. 1l.15, but outside of this quarter the
regular market at no time reached over
IL cents. Owing to the light demand
from consumers amid the dull condition
OF trade, this figure soon became merely
nominal. During the last hall OF the
month an easier tone was developed, fol-
lowed by shrinkage in values of Z a \
cent per pound. The decline was an in
centiye for moderate purchases only,
demand being still OF the hand Ito mouth
character.
With brass and copper manufacturers
cdrtailiDg their operations, there is less
copper using in this country than would
be the case did normal conditions pre-
vail. The enormous exports, however,
effectually provide an outlet for the sur
plus production, During the first seven
months of this year, this country pro-
duced III, 9I5 tons OF fine copper. and
exporting during the same period 69, 2O3
tons, which left only II 4 per cent. of the

the LONE trade are actually less than a

40 md money, next November, a marked
revival OF bu-iness should result. and
with the do nestle manufacturing demand
for copper capable II an expansion OF
from % to 33 per cent, bright future
awaits copper. Prices are now down TO
"a much lower basis in this country than
u year ago, but with a restoration OF con-
hdence and general business activity, and
once the disturbing elements to trade are
removed, the copper situation will be

ner in which the people OF the country arr
reported to have responded. During the
three days stay here the News has not
seen a single stove arrive, neither have
we been able to find one family who has
secured stove since the disaster. The
people, like the soldiers, do their cooking
in the open air on brick fire places or rem

though Ontonagon was noted lumber
town, scarcely foot can be purchased
today. the fire demon having devoured
millions OF feet OF il, in fact, nearly every

weather sets in much suffering and per
haps death from exposure may result.
The male portion OF the community
under canvas can, OF course, rough II
through, or look as il they could, but
with the women and little children the
case is entirely different. With little
warm food to nourish the bodies OF the
latter it is hard to tell what may be the
result. Ii is impossible to get fresh meat
or vegetables, except potatoes, and the
fare OF one and all must necessarily be
canned or salt meats, bread, butter, etc,
and tea or coffee.
