 brought along his own barley, and he allowed that the fellow had put the price of the barley upon the hay. He told Eason that he had "biokenn another Bisbee man who hauled peo. pie to Nacosari from bringing his own barley. Eason declared that the next time he came out he would not only bring along his own barley but his own hay also. He is new to the coun- try, having only recently come to Bisbee, and had never before been over the road. He said he had learn. "*hole lot of things"
 The other man who was "broken of bringing his own barley" it seems, has paid duty upon his teams into Mexico, and at Naco we were asked why we had not engaged one of those teams. (The inquiry however was not from any of the gentlemen who so kindly helped us through). Later we heard of one of the duty paid teams which convinced us we had missed nothing in engaging Mir. Eason's team. The duty paid team was three days in getting to Teachout's, half way between Fronteras and Nacosari, and had to be left there while another team was procured to make remaining stretch in the journey. When the party reached the station returning there was charge of ten dollars for the care of the team.
 At FrOnteras we were informed that coal of very good quality had been recently found in the vicinity, and the prospect is being work upon, with what results our informant did not learn.
 We got away from Fronteras short- ly after daylight Friday morning, and at very short distance passed upon the princely domain of MT. A. A. Pesqueira of Hermosillo-th Cuchuta ranche-and were until nearly noon crossing it. It extends along the Fronteras valley about twenty miles, and includes the sweep of the finest part of the valley-the two mountains or each side, the summits of which are respectively the southeast and southwest corners of tue grant, were pointed out to us.
 Ten miles from Fronteras we came to MT. Pesqueira's home ranche, which is about half a mile away from the main travelled road, at the point of mesa lying in the forks of the Fronteras river. It is lovely spot and commands fine view of the beautiful valley-in all directions.
 Grazing upon this handsome prin- cipality Mir. Pesqueira has many thousand head of good cattle, and he ships to the American markets several trainloads annually, now driving them to Don Luis station, on the Bisbee railway. But the new railway to Na-- cosari will run through the ranche, and will have thereon a station and stockloading pens. Mr P. is grading up his cattle, having recently import ed two carloads of thoroughbred Here- ford bulls, for breediug purposes.
 We found that MT. Pesqueira had gone to his home at Hermosillo for short visit: but would return neyt week.
 At the Cuchuta ranche house we met MT. H. G. Gwynn, hide buyer, with headquarters at Bisbee, return ing home from trip to Cumpas, where he has established branch

Bought Fruit and Gave Checks for
Payment.

Chicago, Oct. IA young man,
representing himself to be member
of the South Water street commission
firm of Watson a. Co., succeeded in
swindling Michigan farmers out OF
thousands of dollars worth Of produce
and fruits last week. Armed with
stencils bearing the name OF that COM
mission firm and pretending to be
George j. Watson, ST., OF the firm. he
bought the fruit, shipped 1t to Chicago
on the City of Milwaukee, sold ii and
disappeared. The checks with which
he bought the fruit turned out to be
worthless.
He made quick purchases and did
not haggle on the prices. On the day
of delivery he paid for the produce by
checks drawn on the Prairie State
bank of Chicago. He signed them Geo.
j. Watson, Sr. The checks were ac-
cepted without question. When the
fruit arrived at Chicago the fictitious
Watson went TO the firm of Watson &
Co. and sold the entire consignment
to them and was paid in cash. That Is
the last seen Of him.
Now the Michigan banks are look
ing to the farmers for the payment OF
the check, for which they are liable.

scAlgY COURT INQUIRY.
Witness Said the Admiral Was Cool
and Brave.

Washington, Oct. 1C.-Only one new
witness was heard in detail by the
Schley court OF inquiry yesterday.
This was Lieut.. Commander James II.
Sears, who was Admiral Schley's fiaG
lieutenant during the Spanish war.
He gave detailed account of the en-
tire Cuban campaign, including the
brief siege of Cienfuegos. the retro
grade movement of the flying squad
ron in search OF coal, the blockade OF
Santiago, the reconnaissance OF the
Santiago shore batteries and the bonn
bardment of the Cristobal Colon May
81, and the battle off Santiago July 3.
when Cervera's feet was destroyed.
He placed the distance out of the
blockading line at Cienfuegos at from
one to four miles. and at Santiago at
from three to six miles. He expressed
the opinion that in the battle Of July
3 it had been the Viscaya's intention
TO ram the Brooklyn.
While Commander Sears was on the
stand Capt. Lemly asked his age, but

sultation in retirement, decided that

PANAMA CANAL co. READY.
Are Willing Now to Sell to United
States.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 14.-An interna-
tional dicker. compared with which
the payment OF $7,200,000 to Russia
for Alaska, or of $2O,000,c00 to Spain
for the Philippines are mere trifies,
will be attempted in a very short
time, when President Hutin of the
Panama Canal Co. meets the isthmian
canal commission probably for the last
time.
Hutin is now on his way to this
country, and IL is understood he
brings a proposition for the transfer
to the United States OF the Panama
canal. This proposition is said to be
the only thing for which the commits
sion Is waiting before making its re-
port. The commissions force OF 500
engineers and assistants have bored
almost every square yard of the route
of the Nicaragua canal and have gone
over the Panama route thoroughly
enough to verify the surveys and re-
ports. The surveys, which are the
basis of the reports, have cost the gov
eminent over 100000.
The work which the Panama COM
pany has done on the isthmus has
been estimated at an actual value OF
$43,000,000, although $3.50 100000 has
been squandered. The sum the Pan
anna company will ask the commission
for the work done on the isthmus and
its other interests is said to exceed
$4,000. 600
