 The Tucson Citizen says: IS. E. Fuller stated in Prescott the other day that the much written up Bill Will liams' Fork dam enterprise, in which he was associated with Mir. Bates of New York, has been shut of, so far as they are concerned, owing to the fact that they have been notified that the United States government wants that water, ground and damsite."
 Edward M. Sturges, prOspector in mining district of Mexico near Douglas, Arizona, reports a tremen- dous gold strike. It is in the Torres mountains about forty miles from Cos, the terminus of the Nacozari railroad. Sturges claims to have taken out $50, 900 in gold in the last six weeks. The outfit only worked the very richest of the deposit by the old system of robbing the veins. He says the vein can be traced through three hills. Samples of the ore are said to run as high as 1900 ounces of gold to the ton.
 A Denver gentleman who has been examining into the feasibility of tun- nel under Stockton Hill returned to Denver this week for the purpose of enlisting capital in the enterprise. Tn an interview in Denver paper he states that the tunnel will cut many veins at a depth of from 800 to over 2000 feet. The veins were among the best producing mines in the territory many years ago and have only been worked to depth of permanent water level. The mines all carry values in gold as we'll as big values in silver. In the zones near the apex of the mountain many of the veins carry cop- per values and are rich in gold. Water has been encountered at shall low depth in all the mines, in conse- quence of which the mine owners have been handicapped in the work of open- ing up of the properties. A tunnel is now the only cheap method of working the entire region. Miner.

WANTS BOARD To MEET HERE
Territorial Board of the Louis
lana Purchase Exposition
Managers of New Mex
leo Meets This
Month.

Herbert j. Hagerman says he
is trying to get the Territorial
Board of the Louisiana Pur-
chase Exposition Managers Of
New Mexico to meet in Roswell.
There have been three meetings
of the board already, two in
Santa Fe and one in Las Vegas
and the fourth meeting will be
held this month and Albuquer-
que is very anxious to have it
meet there.
Mr. Hagerman thinks We ought
to all work together and get the
board to meet here this month
as it would do the valley a great
deal of goond. $4,000 has
been appropriated by the Terri
tory for the New Mexico exhibit
at st. Louis. This amount is
not sufficient and the county
commissioners have the power
by law to make extra appropri-
ations for gathering and ar
ranging the exhibit from the
different counties they represent.
! New Mexico should be strongly
represented at the great exposi
ton and the good that would
result would be inestimabfe.
The board has eight members
and was appointed by Governor
Otero. Mr.. Hagerman is ii
member and is taking great in
terest and doing all in his pow
er to make the New Mexico ex-
hibit a creditable one.
