THE COMMONWEALTH.
A Correspondent of the Bisbee Tyre
 Sings Its Praises.

If Pearce camp were advertised and talked about in proportion to the vast mineral wealth it contains, and the immense profit realized on the extrac- tion and reduction of its ores, it's story would sound like a tale of fic- ton, and thousands of dollars of cap ital which is now seeking investment in the frozen north would be employ ed in trying to find, in the same vicin ity another "Commonwealth" mine, writes a correspondent to the Bisbee Tyre.
 Of all the places on earth that an experienced prospector would go to seek a mine, the butte where the above named mine is located, would be the last. Standing on the western edge of the Sulphur Springs valley, among various others of similar shape and appearance, is a little hill, barren of any vegetation other than grass, and presenting none of the rugged ap- pearance and metamorphic form which prospectors always look for. In this hill is now the most profitable gold mine in America, and perhaps in the world. To verify this declaration the mine works force of about if teen men, and the mill six; and the output, as nearly as can be estimated, is something like $250,000 per month. Everything that is broken in the mine goes for ore; consequently we have, in this case, the anomalous feature of a mine without dump. It seems a pity, too, for the dump site could not be excelled except in the highest mountains.
 The mill is supposed to have a crushing capacity of forty tons per day, and an addition is being erected equal to three times that amount; and besides that, several carloads are shipped daily to the smelters.
 Several other claims near by are being worked with encouraging pros poets; one of which number, the Gold Cliff, is now extracting considerable quantities of ore which will be reduc- ed by the cyanide process, the planf for which is now on the ground.
 A Cincinnati company is now sink ing a shaft on the flat northwest o1 the Commonwealth to tap the prin- cipal lode. The work is being pushed as vigorously as eight hour shifts car do it.
 Every one here seems contentet with the outlook and expect to see within another year, a rival of Bis bee as a wealth producer, with th' inestimable advantage of having al incomparable climate and plenty O pure water.
 Besides the mineral wealth of thi place, there is a strong probabilit. that within a few years this valle, will become one of the richest agri cultural and stock raising countrie in the southwest This will be the re suit of irrigation by means of artesia
 wells. At the O. T. ranch, where a artesian we'll has been found, the
 are sinking still deeper to strike
 larger vein of water. Whe1 ne fac \ of abundant supply is demonstrate

NUGGETS FROM THE HILLS.

A ten stamp mill has been ordered by the Springfield Mining company for it's Peoples valley mine, where there is already sufficient ore of high grade character to keep the mill Underwood is superintendent of the Springfield company's mines.
 Forty men are working in the Col den Wave mine, one and a half miles north of Congress, and at a depth Of 240 feet shows three feet of ore simi- lar in character to that of Congress. The Golden Wave is owned by a New York company and development work is being rapidly pushed with excel lent results.
 The Gold Note Company, operating in Yavapai county, is putting in a pipe line which will furnish water to run their mill. Superintendent D. B. Gillette states that the line will prob ably be completed by the 10 tn of No vember. Besides furnishing power for the mill, the pipe line will convey water to run an electric light plant, as the mines will be lighted by cleo tricity.
 Frank c. White, general superin- tendent of the Ardath Gold Mining company, arrived from Indianapolis, Indiana, Saturday evening and leaves for the mines this evening. MT. White informs us that a ten stamp mill will be put in operation at the mine as soon as the machinery reaches here from the east. The as says of the Ardath run from $40 to S2O0 to the ton and the vein is about l thirty inches wide. Some of the spec 1 imens taken from the mine gleam with the yellow stuff and indicate that the property is remarkably val uable. The directors of the company are Frank c. White, Allen A. Bowser Louis H. Renkert, finders Larsen an( Sanford E. Thomas, all of Indianapo lis, Indiana The intention is to pu on a force of men as soon as the mil
 is up, running night and day. MT
 White thinks the company will fur

the necessity of shipping cattle to the Salt River valley for pasturage will be obviated; for the soil here is suffic- iently fertile, and the valley suff1c- iemtly extensive to raise alfalfa nec- essary to pasture all the cattle in Co., chise county When that time ar rives look out for the new county of Chiracahua with Pearee as the county seat.

Sam II. Hubbard Says the Atlantic
Crop Is Disappointing.

The following letter to Mr.. w. E..
Daley, the local representative OF Hub
bard Bros & Co. of New York is from a
member of that firm and is worthy of
consideration by those who are counting
upon a cotton crop to exceed 10000 900

crop and believe we must look to Texas
TO supply the cotton necessary to furnish
the bumper crop we hear 50 much about.
the crop here appears to have been doing
wei until the rams of August were fol-
lowed by this hot, dry weather, which
seems to have caught the Pant IN a sappy
coHuitlon and severely injured the pros
poets for a large yield. on the sandy
lands the damage has been naturally the
greatest but the cotton on the red clay
lands is also suffering, while the pros
poets Of a top crop are very small
MY advlces from the Memphis district
are of a similar character. The bumper
crop idea has been so extensively aever-
tised that 1t is difficult to find anyone
boiieVing In damage to the crop or the
prospect of higher prices have never
seen tne south 50 bearlsh. While tt is
undoubtedly the reflection of the small
demand from spinners it is finally based
cn the idea Of a Large crop, which was

Liverpool traders had a worse batch OF
blues than usual to explain the decline
there. They oabled that the Bank of Eng
land had raised its rates, and that a
strike was threatened In the Manchester
mills. This threatened strike Is said to be
due to am announcement of reduced
wages, the English spinrers declaring
that the present state of trade would
necessitate either that course or running
short time. It being absolutely necessary
to curtal expenses.
In addition to the woes of the foreign
ers. the extension of the yellow fever
scare to Texas was temporarily against
the market. as IL added slightly to the
panicky feeling. A number of houses
cancelled their buying limits in the in
terror today, not knowing what effect the
scare might have upon the speculative
markets, or upon the export demand AS
