 800 ft. of l4.5 per cent grade on "Dobe Hill"
 l5O fJ of a l4 per cent grade on "Sorrels' Ranch" hill.
 2U0 1t. of IT per cent grade on Be mont Hill"
 7u0 1t. of ll.5 per cent grade on digger Hill"
 On what is known as the valley road there is one pull of 1000 it. of a l. per cent grade
 Taking these facts into considera- tinn and from previous experience on mountain roads in Colorado and New Mexico, 1 consider that ordinarily good draught animals will average l ,000 lbs over the pass either into or out from Washington Camp. At Aspen, CulO., on two miles of 10 per cent grade ascending, a twO-team -four hnrsel outfit hauled up 24 tons or ore.
 The road has been so laid out as to grades that at sharp turns as the crossings uf arroyoS, etc., the grades of approach, turn or departure, are slight Or nil, and the full straight pull of the teams can be used where the grades are at all stiff
 The road from the start will be able to accommodate twO-team -four animal wagon and later on by widen ing turns fOur-team (eight-animall outfit
 Tie road has also been s9 laid out that no place in crossing tue mount aims will 1t follow canon, and will obviate the risk of losing portion Of same by clOudburst.
 COST OF CONSTRUCTION
 Where the road follows hillside a clean cut of width of Seyen feet Is tO Ue made and the earth eXcavated frum this cut is to be used in filling to width of two tO three feet m ire, giving this additional width of rad bed. Where m arroyo is tO be filled top width of nine feet should be used. Where turnS are to be made a cut or fillo uiue tn twelve feet is to be used, so that there may be plenty of space to swing wagon.
 Under the abnve conditions the cost will be as follows:

 MORALES, A. T., Jan. 9th, 1900. To the Honorable Board of County
 Supervisors, County of Santa Cruz,
 Arizona Territory, Nogales Ariz.
 SIRs: In compliance with your or ders, 1 beg to submit the following report of survey and an estimate of cost Of constructing codnty road from the eastern half of Santa Cruz county via Washington Camp to No gales, the county seat of said county
 AS the road is constructed to Wash ingtou Camp, extension is from Wash ington Camp westward.
 LENGTH Washington Camp to No gales, via Washington Pass crossing Santa Cruz river at the stone house and taking the present road via Proto canon, distance of p miles.
 By constructing a new road from Santa Cruz river to Nogales this will be shortened distance of three miles, making it l9 5 miles.
 pfSON U - run " d>ui'ie ODu Shihp to the river there will be necessary to construct tour (4l miles of road, and some slight clearing on the long ridge leading from the point of hill to the spring.
 THIRD-A resume of road is as follows:
 (al From Chapln's store in Wash ington Camp telev $500 1t to top of old read lsta. 543) 1000 it. of an per, cent ascending grade.
 (bl Top of old road (sta. 5i3) to pass No. l. (sta 3i00) 5000 1t, of a g per cent ascending grade. ,
 lcl Pass No. l l(sta 35OO) to pass No, (sta 572O) Elev 6,03S 1t. 20 it of 4.l5 per cent ascending grade.
 ld) Pass No. ? to Big Draw (sta. 7o00) l,lS0 1t. fla 56 per cent grade ascending.
 (el Big Draw lsta. 7l2Ol to arroyo ista. S200l 1,O74 it. of per cent grade descending.
 CD Arroyo (sta 82OOl to top of pass lsta 9359, eev 6l03 ft.) l.169 it. of 4.6 grade ascending.
 From here it is down grade to the river and as follows:
 lgl Top of pass (sta O) to turn be- low the biz cliff ? O56 per cent feet of 3 per cent grade.
 (hl 293 1t. of a l3 per cent grade.
 (il Station 2,443 to Station 6,4O4, 4,05l 1t. of 6.3 per cent grade.
 CD Station 6,494 to Station 7,426, 932 of 8.7 per cent grade.
 lkl Station ,426 to Station ll,250. This is the beginning of the long ridge. 4,O9s 1t. of lO.1 per cent grade descending.
 CD Or long ridge Station l1.250 to Station l4 ,330, 3,080 it. of 325 per cent grade descending.
 (m) On the hills above the spring, 3,296 it. of 49 grade descending. | (sta. 5,842 to sta. 19,l40)

 (o) Big tree to the Santa Bruz river at the Stone House crossing, 32,0n0 1t. of per cent grade. Elevation of the Santa Cruz river 3,7lS 1t. and of Nogales 3.s6S it.
 Hence it will be observed that in crossing the pass from Washington Camp 10 Nogales there is but one long up hill pull of 5000 1t. of per cent grade.
 Going east from Nogales over the pass there is one pull of ]. 100 1t. Of

Totalcost

b--
 Now as regards the change of road from the stone house crossing at the Santa Ccuz river tO take up over the hill and into Nngales such q change will cost at maximum SlOO. and will involve the moving of 1000 cubic wards of loose rock or earth, and two huDdred cubic yards of solid rock and $50 for clearing purposes, etc etc There will he but one long pull of l.0D0 feet of a nine per cent grade The length of said change would be IS miles.
 The entire road will be one that can be steadily improved on. and is the only feasible road that can be built from the five preliminary lines that l ran.
 In addition to opening up the east ern half of the cnunty this road will be of the greatest benefit in develop ing the latent resources (mineral) of the Patagonia mountains, for judging from my own observation and th at of other Colorado mining men, consider it only in it's infancy. And hence the benefit will be mutual, as NogaleS will be the trading point. 1 beg to remain very truly. N. c. BANKS.

"red tape" sat on our baggage and
watched il wind and unwind, and II
might have been amusing il | had not
been go anxious about our train ;
for we had so much to do before we left.
Finally came the real business
Of examining the baggage, but it did not
amount to anything-just a look into
each trunk and vaise-that was all.
However, we had an exceptionally pleas
ant officer. He caught sight of those
baby Dutch shoes told you about, and
he asked me il they were Chin ese shoes,
and was very much surprised TO learn
that the people there really wore wooden
shoes.
But | must tell you that we had a
"grand concert" on board the New
York Friday night, and had the honor
OF appearing on the same program with
the Hon. Chauncey Depew.
Several professionals in different lines
took part. Mrs. Leslie Carter gave q
handsome checque, but did not take
part. We cleared over $500 for seamen
and other charities. There was also a
professional violinist the musical direc.
tor Of the Manhattan, Of New York. lie
was the star, think, he played SO
beautifully. He was director Of the
concert and played my aceo compartments.
We went TO Cooks the first thing for
mail. must say some OF the
contents Of that paper were more than
surprising. thought my letters hardly
tit for the family circle, they were so
hurripdlv written and / never dreamed
that they or any part Of them would be
published so hold you responsible for
any mistakes or misstatements which
they may contain.
The stores ell closed today at noon, so
| expect to do some shopping Monday.
Then we will take a train about noon for
Albany and stop off about two hours,
continuing our journey in the evening 10
Montreal, where we will take the through
train 10 the Pacific coast.

WHERE is THE
MISSING MAN
Theodore Pillester Still Unac.
counted For
Disappeared From steamer Eugene one Week
Ago. Crew Believe Ne was
Drowned,

The fact that the body found in the
river near Wheatland SCENE, from
papers found in the pockets, to be tina,
OF Frank Morton. leaves the owner OF
the unclaimed valise at the o. G. I.
dock still unaccounted for. AS stated
in The JOURNAL, the valise is marked
Theodore Pillester and belonged 10 a
young fellow who disappeared from the
o. G. T. Co. q boat while she was on her
way up from Portland.
Further particulars Of the circum-
stances have been obtained from mate
Geo. Blulm OF the steamer Eugene. On
the up trip last Thursday two young
fellows boarded the boat at Portland,
saying they we're coming to Salem to
pick hops.
Both had liquor aud were drinking
heavily. Lincoln was reached after
dark and near there the boat grounded
on a bar. The mate went out with a
line, and on his return one Of the crew
reported having heard a splash which
sounded like man falling overheard.
No ouicry had been raised, however, and
as the boat was among floating logs, it
was concluded that the noise had been
made by log.
When the boat reached Salem one Of
the young fellows reported to the mate
that his partner was missing and that
he had not seen him since the boat
passed the bar at Lincoln. He then
left the vaise with agent Buckingham
as already related.
The valise was opened this morning.
and found to contain some working
clothes.
The missing man was about 10 years
of age, c can shaved and weighed about
100 pou nds.
The steamboat crew are now conf.
dent that he must have fallen ovei =
board while boat was on the bar.
