An Ice Famine
Threatened in Tucson.

The Tucson Ice and Cold Storage COM
pany is experiencing a few troubles
these warm days, and it is not all un.
likely that the public will be forced to
share in the discomfiture of that mono.
polistic institution.
At it's beat, the plant OF the Cold Stor-
age company is inadequate to the de-
mands OF a city OF the magnitude Of
Tucson. II could easily meet the wants
Of a village but fifteen tons OF CONCEALED
aqua pura will scarcely supply the resi-.
dences and business houses OF one Of
Tucson's principal thoroughiares.
Troubles never come singly. The
Tucson plant ships in the neighborhood
of thirty tons OF ice per day to outside
points, and in order to supply it's rural
customers had to draw on Los Angeles.
These shipments failed to arrive this
week, and to add to the discontinue oil
the Ice and Cold Storage Company, its
machinery broke down, and now the
public is as economical as possible and
curtail the use OF ice.
There is an abundance of ice in Tue
con, but the Cold Storage patrons can
not get it. The San Antonio people
have an adequate supply for their Gus
toners, but refuse to accommodate those
outside OF their trade-a retribution, al
it were, for the refusal on the part ol
the Cold Storage company to furnish ice
to the patrons OF the San Antonio com.
pany.
1t is thought, however, that the pub.
lie will not suffer on this account. The
San Antonio company received thirty
tons OF ice this morning and has another
consignment ON the road; and while
they may refuse to supply the busines,
houses who depended upon the Cold
Storage Company it is very likely that
families win he served pending the
erection OF their own plant.
A telephone message from the man.
ager OF the Cold Storage Company SAYS
the machinery will be in operation to
morrow and ice furnished as heretofore

peat house should be located in some un'
frequented part OF the city, and suggests
that a proper location would be in the
foothills west OF the Santa Cruz.

Weather Prophet Wetmore predicts an

upside down, and in a few DAYS those oi

may be here climbing mesquite trees foI
beans. Superintendent Wetmore of the
local observatory does not say anything
about these disturbances--he does moi
care to create a sensation in Tucson
but it ia confidently expected that "a
change in the weather" will occur in the
not very distant future.

Predictions for Tucson
Charles DeGroff Talks.

Charles DETROIT, the hotel man OF FL
Paso, arrived last evening and is
stopping at the Orndorff in Tucson, an
inn OF his own creation.
Mr.. DeGroff's q last visit to Tucson was
about four months ago, but even in the
lapse of so short space he is able to
discern many Improvements OF sub
stantial nature.
Mr.. DeGroff 10 of opinion that the
time is not far distant when Tucson will
have another railroad, and coming from
the center OF railroad operations in the
west his horoscope in this instance car
ries much weight. He predicts that the
Bisbee road will not be content with re
naming at the copper camp, although
the road was projected to, and will be
completed to El Paso, for the sole pur'
pose OF tapping trunk lines and deriving
the benefits that may accrue from COM
peting lines. The Phelps.Dodge people
in conjunction with the Rock Island
will continue the line, and it is not al
all unlikely that Tucson will be the
first objective point when the road com
mences to extend from its initial point
Mr.. DeGroff went south this after
noon, going into Sonora via Nogales
where he has business interests. He
will be absent three or four days, re-
turning to Tucson, where he will spend
