tinuous body stretching to a distance of two or
 three miles, and showing a thickness at right
 angles to the Stratiecoticn Of no less tlun G,OC1
 or s,e00 or perhaps lG000 feet, and there Is no evidence whatever Of plicati0n. The strati6ca-
 tion is fat and as regular as the leaves Of Q
 book Usually we detect more or less plicaton
 sr folding in such section, but there is no evi- dence of any folding whatever in this series. There is, however, great difference in the composition of the layers of these rocky ridges, now all turned black upon the surface-a condi- ton of coloring which seems to attend all the rock outcrsps along the lower Colorado, and the origin of which, though discussed by Humboldt after noting similar blackening of the rocks along the Orinoco, has not yet been satisfactory explained. This general blackening of the sur face hides the changes of composition, which may be noted by careful and close inspection.
 In some places hornblendic states are more developed than the mica slate, and at others the micaceous schistose characters predominate and are accompanied by layers of quartzite in- terleayed and three or four feet in thickness, sometimes three or four inches, and some foliated quartz having little films of mica in it. These quartz beds are members of the series, but have been located as lodges and, it is clalmeQ, are golu bearing. The quartz has little or no resemblance to vein quartz and yet at several points in the outcrop there are stains of green color, apparently from the decomposi- tion of ore like that which has given green stains to the croppings of the Fortuna.
 Several dike-like seams or veins of white al bite or soda feidspar cut directly across the bedding O: the mica slate series. These feldspa- thic dikes do not appear to have any relation to the ore bearing vein or lode of the Fortuna. These dil1es are extremely irregular and appear to have filled cross fractures or breaks of the regular strata.
 Coarse granite was noted at the northern point of the Gila range along the railroad, but no evidences were found of the existence of stratiaed Paleozoic or secondary rocks. The mica states series referred to is the Huronian or krchaan.

river as much as 100 feet, and to this height water must be brought, as the bottoms are dur Ing certain months completely overfowed by the waters of the swollen streams. The soil is extraordinarily rich and particularly adapted to the cultivation of sugar, rice and all the tex tile plants, in addition to an extended list Of tropical, semitropical, and temperate products. According to careful chemical analysis, the fertilizing mud carried by the Colorado closely resembles that of the waters of the Nile, while it's volume at low water has been estimated by competent authority as sufficient to easily irri gate more than 1,75OO0O acres"
 The lands of the lower Colorado River Valley have not b9en developed very extensively, owing to the litigation over what is known as the Algodones land grant, which has been in the courts for the last decade. The Vexed question has lately been settled by the U. s. Supreme Court in favor of the government.

KING OF ARIZONA.


 The gold-bearing property, known for time as the Gleason. has been transferred to the King of Arizona Mining and Milling Company, 8 cor. poration organized under the laws of the Terri tory of Arizona, with capitalization of 5000 OOO shares of a par value of Sl each. This company owns four full Clairns-the Homestal1e; the King Of Arizona, tne- LGst Heper sad the Mucho Bueno- This dsssfct lies about thirty five miles due east Of thd Castle Dome Land ing, on the Colorado River. It is north of the Gila River and about 40 miles from Mohawk Summit. on the Southern Pacific Railroad. Tdts Is the nearest station on the railway. There are several other locations besides those conveyed to the King of Arizona.
 The Homestake location covers the chief workings up to this date. There is on this claim strong vein of gold-bearing quartz. This lode or vein has three well-marked divisions or layers. On the hanging wall there is a soft layer from to Sh inches wide. which averages about e2s0o per ton in value. Next below this there is 8 middle layer or body of quartz about 20 inches thick, wnicc VII average about ssO to s10o per ton in value The remainder of the vein, so far as it is exposed by the shaft, aver ages about S24 per ton. Test holes have been drilled feet deep into the foot wall and all are lu ore The S0alL Dy WQlcQ the exposure or the nature of the vein has been made is 200 feet deep and follows the dip of the hanging wall distance of 70 feet easterly and 30 feet westerly. These show 0 continuity of vein, having the same characters and values develop ed by the shaft. The hill rises rapidly both east and west of the shaft that the height of backs on the lode above the drifts is greater than at the shaft At point about 30 feet west of the shaft and on level with the collar Of the shaft the vein has been crosscut from wall to wall, showing it IS feet wide at that point. The ore in the crosscut is of about the same grade as that in the shaft The croppings of the vein may be followed for some 700 feet of the Home stake shaft to a second opening, known as 'fThe King of Arizona Shaft" This shaft is about 50 feet deep, and by means of drill holes the vein is shown to be II feet in width and has an aver age value of sl0 per ton. At point 300 feet east ef the Homestake shaft a tunnel has been made which crosscuts the vein 169 feet below the sur face. At this point the hanging wall vein is IS inches wide and has an average value of $50 per ton. The tunnel then passes through 30 feet of vein matter running about B per ton, thence through feet Of ore carrying S28 per ton to the foot wall. The total distance from hanging wall tofoot wall along this tunnel Is 4O feet. A drift has been run along the foot wall to the Home stake shaft at distance of 300 feet, and the average value Of the orc exposed is s14 per ton.

DUMPSON'S CASE CONTINUED
His Victim stin Unable to Appear
Against Him

In City Court this morning the case
against Charles Dumpson charged with
assault with intent to kill his brother OF
trey was continued by Judge Cochran,
owing to the fact that Dumpson's victim
was physically unable to be in attend
ance.
DR.. ]. Bacon Stubbs, the only witness
examined. testified to the nature OF the
wound inflicted upon Ottrey Dumpson,
and said that he could not state positively
what the results would be at present.
The bullet had been probed for, but had
not yet been extracted. At the request
of Assistant City Solicitor Lynn the case
went over until November 16 and the
prisoner held without bail until that time.

New York, Nov. 9.-Two bodies we're
taken from the ruins Of the Tarrant
building yesterday. The first was that
of Hamilton Matthews, a driver for
Tarrant G. Co. The remains we're
shockingly mutilated. Later the dig
gers in the ruins came across another
body This proved TO be that Of Ben
jamin Moorehouse, the missing ship
ping and stock clerk OF the company.
Moorehouse was 81 years old, and had
been missing since the day Of the ex-
plosion. With him disappears all pos
sibility Of explaining the fire horror.
II was Moorehouse who had charge OF
the storage book OF the big drug firm,
in which was list Of all the explosives
stored in the building. No trace Of this
book was found.
Moorchouse lived at Montclair, N.
]. Fire department officials insisted
all along that the clerk had simply
disappeared for a time and would later
turn up. Moorehouse's family, how
ever. felt that his body would be found
In the ruins The police opinion was
based on the fact that a man who pre-
tended to know Moorehouse said he
saw the clerk in the street after the
explosion occurred.

Democratic, With B0ckham Governor

Omaha, Nov. 9.-Complete returns
from two-thirds of the counties in Ne
braska and scattering returns from
the balance show that Mckinley has
carried Nebraska by a plurality Of at
least 1000. An equal number of re-
turns on the state ticket indicate that
Nebraska has reelected Governor
Poynter and the entire state ticket by
pluralities ranging from 500 to 1,S0O
over the Republicans, the governor be-
ing high man.
II the balance Of the state shall show
the same percentage of gain and loss
Poynters election is certain, and the
counties to be heard from being most
ly in the western part of the state it
is fair to presume that this is the case.
The legislature will likely be decided
by Douglass county, in which Il will
take the official count TO determine the
vote. The World-Herald (Dem.) claims
the lieutenant governor will cast the
deciding vote in the upper house and
that the lower house Is evenly divided
with two places in doubt.
In Douglass county the count is
close, and charges of fraud are made
by the Democrats. The Republicans
claim TO have elected one out Of three
senators and six out Of nine represent
atives. while the Democrats claim two
senators and all the representatives.

BE RETURNED TO THE SENATE
POOR CROWD BtT GOOD SPORT
Warren Club Gave Fine Show and
Awarded Prizes

Probably owing to the rain, the attend
ance at the annual boxing tournament
given by the Warren A. A. last night was
poor. The show, however, was a good
one and the bouts were fast and exciting.
All local boxers who had entered their
names did not show mp.
In the first bout the contestants were
Thomas Hennesy Of the Southside A. G.
and John Sherman Of Philadelphia. Sher-
man won in the first round, Hennesy's
seconds throwing the towel in the ring
as their man was completely outclassed.
The first bout in the 112 pound prelim-
mary was between Young McGovern, w.
A. A., and c. w. Kimble, Of Philadel-
phia. The go was stopped by the police
in the second round as Kimble butted
McGovern in the head inflicting a wound
which required three stitches to close.
McGovern received the decision.
The second 122 pound preliminary was
between William Black Of W. A. A., and
Kid Welsh Of Philadelphia. Black won
in two rounds.
The third and semi-fnal 122 pound pre-
liminary was between Jim Conroy, OF
Southside A. c., Jack Daley, Of w. a.
A.. and Kid Gilbert, of Philadelphia.
Gilbert won both.
The final between Black and Gilbert
was exciting, the boys fighting for all
there was in it. As Black was the clev-
erer and harder hitter he made his oppo-
nent quit in the second round. Black re-
ceived first prize, a diamond ring; Gil
bert, the second prize, gold watch.

Washington, Nov. 9.-Former sena-
tor IA. s. Quay, who left here this
morning for Florida, last night gave
Dut the following statement for publi-
cation: THE contest on Tuesday re-
suited in a sweeping victory for the
stalwart Republicans of Pennsylvania.
The senate will be organized by the
regulars, no matter what statements
TO the contrary may be made by the
insurgents or newspapers. Senator w.
p. Snyder, of Chester county, will be
elected president pro tenn of the senate
and Representative w. T. Marshall, a
stalwart from Allegheny county, will
be elected speaker OF the house. l will
be elected United States senator by
above $50 votes out Of a total vote OF
254 on the first ballot in joint assem-
bly,"
Philadelphia, Nov. 9.-state Sena-
tors David Martin, G. L. Magee, will
lam Finn and ]. Henry Cochran, who
have been among the most active OF
the political leaders in the opposition
to the return of former United States
Senator Quay to the senate, met in
this city yesterday and discussed plans
for continuation Of the fight against
Mr.. Quay in the legislature which will
meet in January. Senator Martin said
after the meeting: "Quay will not be
elected United States senator. We will
without doubt have a majority of the
legislature on joint ballot"
When shown the statement Issued by
Mr.. Quay in Washington Senator Finn
said:
"The claim is absurd. Quay has not
15e, or 12S, the required number mol
will he get them on the first or any
other ballot. The returns are all in
and have no hesitancy in saying that
in both the senate and house a ma
jority Of the members at the next ses.
sion will not only oppose the re-elec.
tion OF Quay, but will support the re.
form measures to which the oppo.
Rents Of Quayism stand pledged. There
is no occasion for Misrepresentation al
this time. Nothing has been taken FOL
granted in this fight. Quay knew al
we'll as I knew, and l knew as we'll a.
Quay knew, how every candidate FOL
the legislature stood in this contest
and Quay knows as we'll as ! know
that a majority of the men elected t
the legislature are pledged to oppos'
his reelection. This far our lInowl
edge of the situation is Identical Qua,
will have less votes in the next legisla
ture than he had in the last"
