EXPERT OPINION.
A Mining Expert Cn Cochize County
 Mines.

MT. J. Herbach, mining expert of New York, is a visitor to Tombstone. MT. Herbach has just returned from a trip to Sonora on mining business, and is on his way to the Chiricahua mountains to look at some mining property, having received his instruc- tions from his New York associates while here.
 MT. Herbach is no stranger to Arl- zona. having investigated several properties in various counties, and has visited this section twice. He has been kept on the travel constantly for the past seven months, two of which were spent in Mexico. From here Mir. Herbach, after making his examinations, will return to New York. He believes he will in all prob ability return here in about three months to devote some time in this section. He unhesitatingly states that of all the mineral sections he has visited in the west Cochise county's mineral resources will compare most favorably with the richest and be- lieves there are many more Common wealth and Copper Queen mines, now prospects, which need but capital to develop them into like bonanzaS. MT. Herbach is a pleasant, agreeable gen. tleman, and we hope 10 see him in terest his associates in this section. -Prospector.

ON M'CLELLAND MOUNTAIN.
Attention Attracted to a Good Find
 Near Georgetown.

Last spring when gold was discov- cred on McClelland mountain, a short distance from Georgetown, the find attracted a great deal of attention, as the district had for thirty years been regarded as a strictly silver produc- ing district, says the Denver Republi- can. The Mecca Mining company, in whose leases in the East Argemtum district the find was made, has been steadily pushing development and recently struck a fine body of ore, some of which ran phenomenally high in gold A shipment of four tons was made to the Globe smelter of this city and a note to the Republican an- nounces that the returns on this lot gave values of more than $3,000 to the ton The country is greatly excited over the find and prospectors are swarming over McClelland mountain.

George Sano, the noted French woman and writer, was really Mme.

ALTGELD BREAKS OUT.
Ex-Governor of Illinois is Ire
 preSSible.

Chicago, Oct. 28.-"There is a feel ing existing among the democrats of the west that Tammany is an organi- zatlon which helps Platt's machine in presidential elections in return for help furnished it by the republicans in local contests D
 In the foregoing words John p Alt geld characterized the political sit- uatlon in Greater New York, in the course of an address to the democratic cltlzens Of Illinois. Indirectly the language of the ex-governor was a thrust at Mayor Harrison and is like ly to cause trouble in democratic cir cles here and elsewhere.
 Ex-Governor Algeld says: "Platt and Croker are playing together" when Mayor Harrison was informed of Altgeld's story he said:
 Il understand Altgeld took occas- ron To attack Tammany in his speech. put l don't see that that need make any difference with my plans of go- ing to New York"
 speaking of the cause of bimetal- lism Altgeld said: "It may confident " be expected that England will come out TOT 'blmetallism in a few years. In Germany the agricultural indus tries have been almost destroyed bv the blight of the gold standard, and uhey, too, will soon take up bimetal- Ilsm- France is ready to espouse the cause of bimetallism at any time. l tell you that the one great struggle Of the world will soon be made to establish bimetallism.
 Last year it is estimated that full ly S4O,OO0,00O was spent in debauch- ing the people and securing the cleo tion of Mckinley.

AT THE BREAKFAST TABLE.

The Presbyterian synod of Illinois, which met the other day at Gales burg, H., about the time that Prince ton university was celebrating it's an niversary, seems to have mixed up wine with it's theology. For the sy- nod adopted resolutions denouncing Princeton for allowing the use of wine at banquets, and scored the fac ulty for permitting the sale of beer at the Princeton Inn.
 Dr. Hu King Eng has been appoint ed first physician to the household of Ii Hung Chang. Dr. Eng is the first female native who has studied medi- cine in this country. She was ad- mitted to the Woman's Medical col lege, Pennsylvania, in 1890. After her graduation she spent nearly two years in doing hospital work, and then re- turned to her country. She is the granddaughter of a mandarin and was born near FoOchow in 1866.
 The desperate characters who have been the terror of Westchester county in New York for the past few days are now in safe keeping. Two of the leaders of the gang are men named Robinson, who escaped from Kings county penitentiary on Monday last and three others have been ar rested, so that the residents of the county feel that they can sleep peace fully in the near future.
 The court martial in Capt. Lover ing of the United States army is now sitting at Chicago. Private Charles Hammond charges the captain with having dragged him to a court, and before this was accomplished the sen- trles in charge were allowed to kick nlm and prick him with their swords But from the evidence it would seem that Hammond was rather an insub- ordinate soldier at his best. The tria is still pending.
 At President McKinleys public re- ceptlon the other day at the White house there was a large number o callers, and among those who pait their respects to the chief magistrat, was Miss Evangeline Cosio Cisnaros who was introduced by Mrs. John A Logan. MT. Mckinley shook hand, with her, but, as is the usual custom at these public receptions, he sail nothing.
 The residents of Atlanta, Ga., ar much disturbed at the report mad by Capt. Grant, a skilled engineer, ol the condition of the magnificent wa ter works system of the city.

THE GRAND CANON.

The Grand Canon Stage company of Flagstaff is now prepared to handle any number of passengers for the Grand Canon. Hundreds of visitors will no doubt make this trip this sum- mer. For all visitors who are now in Arizona, we can only say that to return home without visiting this grandest of all pieces of Gods handiwork would be an act that they would always regret. The scenery cannot be surpassed in any part of the world-grand- sublime, awe-inspiring-and we'll worth a trip across the continent to visit. Do not miss it.
 Parties holding return tickets easl with stop-over privileges en route should by all means visit the Grand Canon from Flagstaff, upon their re- turn.

Former Sends a Message of Thanks
and the Latter RepIies.

PARIS. Sept. lit was given out to-day
that on the arrival of President Faure at
Dunkirk yesterday he sent a dispatch to
the Gar saying: "At the moment I place
my feet once more upon the soil of France,
my first thought is for your Majesty, her
Majesty. the Empress. and the whole Rus

HAVANA, via Key West Fla, Sept. l.
The general situation in Havana and in al:

with one or two killed here and there and
three or four wounded.
The ravages of diseases in the island in

MONEY SCARCE IN INDIA
SALE OF BILLS of EXCHANGE SUS-
PENDED FOR TEN WEEKS.
British Preparing to Attack the Fa-
naticaI Tribesmen of the North
ern Part of India.

LONDON, Sept. 1.-The following notice
was posted on the Bank of England to-day:
THE secretary of state for India in coun-
ell, gives notice that the sale of bills of
exchange on Calcutta, Bombay and Madras
has been suspended for period of not less
than ten weeks.
The government has very little money in
India to draw on, owing to the famine, and
the plague having rendered the collection
of taxes slow. The present time may be
opportune to accustom the East Indians to
the use of gold. instead of silver, though
it would not have been attempted had not
the scarcity of money arisen.
The Daily Telegraph anticipating the ac-
ton of the Indian Council, said to-day:
The council may refuse to draw altogeth-
er, thus sending exchange up to the gold
point and render possible the establishment
of the gold standard in India
The action of the Indian Council has at
tracted but the slightest notice in the af-
ternoon papers and has not affected the
rate of exchange, which is normal. The
Westminster Gazette commenting on the
subject, says: THE decision was altogether
unexpected, being the outcome Of financial
situation in India
The India Council has suspended the sale
of bills of exchange on previous occasions,
lOldUly III 1909 anu 1870, Dul III uSlluer case
gold shipped to India. The present
suspension does not cause surprise, it being
occasioned by heavy expenditures in con-
nection with the frontier troubles. 1t is
probable that a gold loan, for which the
powers already exist will be issued in Lon
don in order to replenish the Indian treas
ury. No other important effect of the
action taken by the Council is expected
the general belief being that little gold will
be RENTED to India. All morning papers
refer to the possibility that the bank will
raise the rate of exchange to-day.
