THE CANAAN EA DECISION.

The dicision of the judge of the first instance at Cananea has been favor able to the interests in the Fl Tigre mine controversy represented by B. F. Graham Of course, the decision of the Cananea judge will not end the lawsuit, and the litigation will move up higher and higher until it reaches the court of last resort in the govern ment of Mexico.
 It is not likely that the Fl Tigrs Mining Company, the original pur- chasers of the Fl Tigre mine, paying on the purchase price several hundred thousand dollars, will be willing to accept the decision of Judge Casten- ada as final
 The dicision of this judge seems un- explainable, and if what he has pro mulgated is the law of Mexico, then there is not a mine owner in that country who is sure of his holdings. The Fl Tigre mine was in the pos session of the Fl Tigre Mining Com pany, it's purchasers, and according to the purchasing agreement $4S,000 was due and payable at the Miners and Merchants Bank at Bisbee. Presi dent SOoy took the gold to the bank and placed it to the order of those tC whom it was payable. It is claimed by Mir. Graham, who held authority from each of the original owners tc collect the money, that the order ot payment was not in accordance witt the agreement in the amounts due eacf of the original owners. Few people believe. however, that had MT. Ora ham wanted the payment due that ht would have had any trouble in get ting it.
 It is known that Mir Graham haC planned very carefully the way tc seize the mine. and we think we voice the public belief that he was lookins for any pretext on which to base sucF action rather than looking for the money due as payment for it.
 The money was paid into the banI at Bisbee for account of the origina owners, it is there yet, and if the Kansas City people can lose theil money and property on such tech nicality then our faith in the admin istration of justice in Mexico will be greatly diminished
 The alfalfa editors who have beer yawping about subsidized" and "cop per-collared" newspapers ever since the press of Arizona resented the outrage put upon the mining industry
