Recent arrivals from Cochise report
that the S. P. company is unloading
rails and ties at that point daily. This

Cochlse station down through Pearce
into Bisbee and thence to Naco, where |
they will connect with the Cananea
road. Doubtless this is the exact mean
ing of the enormous number of railroad |
ties which they have piled up at Co
chise. The road will open upa great
mining field if built as proposed.
