Copper at Altar.
Lsnerinl Correspondenee.l

Phoenix, Dec. 2S.-Colonel $. NJ. McCowan, superintendent of the Phoenix Indian industrial school. and W. c. Foster, clerk of the supreme court of this territory, have just returned from Mexico, where they completed the organi- zation of la Gran Provedora de Cobre company for the operation of some new mines located near Caborca, in the district Altar, So- nora. These and other Arizona men will organize an American company and after the expiration of a certain period of time to secure clear title to the land--a provision required by the Mexican law they will begin the development of their mine in a vigorous manner. The discovery was made by John Henderson of Nogales and w. k. Deity, a prominent Arizona mining engineer. Reliable reports from the scene of the discovery say that this property ranks well with some of the great copper mines that have been found in the Altar district and other parts of Sonora in the last year or two. Deity says of the mine:
 "The ore body is 300 feet in width, and the extent and value was not discovered until the lime capping was broken through and the ore exposed. The ore is a solid body of brown oxide of iron, carry ing copper, silver and gold values. The deposit is immense, and there is no question but that the prop erty has a great future before it. The zone wherein this new find is located is six miles long and about one mile wide. The ores are of a very fine quality. The work done exposes breast of ore of thirty feet, but there is no question but that the whole 300 feet is a solid ore body. The property is advan- tageously situated, being not more than forty miles from tidal water" !"
 John c. Parrish, a well-known mining engineer of Denver, Colo, has just returned from an examin- ation of the property and he pro- nounces La Gran Provedora de Cobre the greatest property in that region and regards it's prospects as very fiattering. McCowan and Foster were well pleased over their investment and said that heavy ma chinery will be installed as rapidly as is consistent. The company has secured the right of location over a tract of twelve miles surrounding the claim just located, but thus far have not actually filed upon a great number of pertenencias.-L Angeles Herald

DEVERY A WINNER.
ExP Police Chief Chosen Leader of the
 Ninth Assembly District.

Ninth Assent DIy District
 NEW YORK. Sept. 1.-The primary elections for district leaders of the if ty-nine assembly districts of Greater New York resulted. in significant vic to2y for the out and out anti-Croker forces in the Tammany organization and the triumph of the machine in the Republican contests.
 William s. Deyery was elected Tam many leader in the Ninth assembly district, defeating John C. sheehan and Frank s. Goodwin. Devery re ceived 1,6S4 votes, Sheehan 1,291 and Goodwin 729.
 Not single man put forward by the Greater New York Democracy, of which John C. Sheehan is the leader, was elected. This fact will prevent Sheehan from having any voice in Tanmany Hall or the state campaign.
 John E. Carroll, leader of the anti Croker forces, defeated Thomas Rush, his opponent for leadership in the Twenty ninth district. Carroll de clared after the result of the balloting was known that he would oppose the management of Tammany Hall along JnC pI0SChL 11S tACAG Devery and other leaders would join him. Carroll received 1.163 votes against 674 for his opponents, Rush and Stein.
 Civil Justice Daniel B. Finn, better known as Battery Dan" Finn, who is classed as a Carroll man, defeated ex- Police Commissioner Michael c. Mur- phy for the leadership of the First as-- sembly district. He received 1879 votes to 1000 for Murphy.
 Ex-Police Commissioner John B. Sexton, another Carroll man, defeated T. J. Kehoe for leadership in the Nine teenth assembly district.
 Percival B. Nagle, another supporter of Carroll, was probably defeated by John Haveron for the leadership of the southern half of the Thirty-fourth dis trict. Both claim it.
 Borough President Louis F. Haffen, one of the triumvirate managing Tam many Hall and opposed to the Croker crowd, carried the Thirty-ffth assem- bly, district, receiving 5000 votes to 500 for his opponent.
 All the other old time Tamnany lead CTS, among them Charles F.. Murphy, who is recognized as the leader of Tammany Hall, and Daniel F. McMa- hon. who is one of the triumyirate, were reelected.
 The contests among the Republicans were without interest
 Tn Brooklyn, where the interest was mainly confined to contests in the few Republican districts, the followers of Lieutenant Governor Timothy L. Woodruff carried every one of the twenty-seven assembly districts. Wal ter Atterbury, the most active oppo- nent of MT. Woodruff, was defeated by 500 majority.

Canada nefemsaIaas.

LONDON, Sept. 17.-The Daily Ex- press this morning says that Colonel Ferrers .Townshend has returned to England after having inspected on behalf of the war office the forts on the Canadian-American frontier. Colo nel Townshend says, according to the Express, that the British Notifications all along the frontier are absolutely inefficient, while the American forts are we'll equipped. Referring to Colo nel Townshend's statement, the Ex- press says, ssIn the event of war be- tween Great Britain and the United States the Yankees would easily march over the frontier and seize Canada be- fore anything could be done to resist them" The statement is made that there is only one cartridge and shell factory in Canada and but little ammu- hilton in the Dominion.

Utica, N. Y, Sept. 17.-By the break ing of reservoir No. 3, the largest of the system of the Consolidated Water Works company, which supplies this city, damage that cannot now be esti- mated was done, but it will no doubt reach $5O,OOO. The reservoir had been in a serious condition since Saturday. It contained 20O,O00,000 gallons of wa ter, which went out with a rush, over turning barns and other buildings and washing out culverts and street rail- way tracks. Hundreds of acres of farm lands were submerged, destroy ing crops and doing other damage. The reservoir was built thirty years ago. It had always been regarded as safe until weakened by the recent heavy rains

 the American trusts, and don't be- lieve that for the purpose of control ing American trusts we should make a market for foreign trusts, thereby crushing out the industries of this country. After my conference last Saturday at Waterloo and hearing the views of the chairmen of my district I concluded that my views on the tarin question were at variance with those of many of my party, and did not desire to appear in false posi- tion."
 Speaker Henderson gave out an ad- dress last evening which states his views on the tariff and trust questions, and because these views, in his opin- ion, are not in accord with the state platform and with the opinions of prominent members of his party he declines to accept the nomination. The address is to the Republican voters of the Third Iowa district. He says, being a Republican, he is a protection ist, and if he ever entertained a doubt as to the wisdom of protective poli- cy nasty comparison between the present and the past would blot out such doubt He then speaks with sat- isfaction of the tariff blanks of the last two national platforms.
 Continuing, he says: For three years I have advocated giving control of trusts to congress. In my judgment proper supervision can never be had until congress has power to treat with them. I am glad to see from speeches made by our fearless and upright chief executive that he is advocating federal control over these corporations, and, while in some quarters they may sheer at it, I have not seen any proposition yet except this that seems at all likely to bring relief"

WILKEsBARRE, Pa, Sept. IT, President Gompers of the American Federation of Labor and National President Mitchell and National Treas urer Wilson of the United Mine Work CTS, together with the district presi- dents of the same organization in the anthracite region, spent the best part of the day in conference here.
 After the meeting none of those who participated was in communicative mood President Mitchell said it was the regular monthly meeting of the ex- ecutiye board of United Mine Workers and MT. Gompers and MT. Wilson, hap pening to be coming this way, stopped over.
 MT. Gompers was a little more talka- tive than the others. When asked what was the object of his visit to strike headquarters, he replied: T simply came up here to look over the strike situation. I find everything in excel lent shape. The strike is being ably conducted, and I learn that ther~ is ample relief for all the strike<.
 MT. Gompers was askc( whether the federation will be S~sessed to support the miners. Hc said in reply that the trades unions now comprising the fed eration are making voluntary contri buttons to help the understand that if it is necessary to give additional aid it will be done. 'sBut at present" he continued, s'the miners are well able to take care of themselves"
 Mr. Gompers said the annual con- vention of the federation would not be called at an earlier date than Novem- Der to take action on the strike.
