 Visiting in Bisbee yesterday with
 Scott White was MT. H. W. Cullen. n journalist of New York. Mir. Cullen IS today one of the foremost writers lof this country. At different times during the past few years he has been on the staff fthe Chicago Record Herald and Tribune, the Philadelphia Telegraph, the New York Journal and
 Evening Mail. and the Boston Post and Globe. At present he is the edi- tor of the Men of Affairs" depart Imeat of the New York Evening Mail. ITO Review man Mir. Cullen gave d most interesting account of his trio int othe interior of Mexico to the Greene timber properties, in company with J. T. Morrow. former general
 manager of the Cananea Copper Co.
 On February 12 the start was made from New York City. From El Paso departure was made to Chihuahua. thence to Minaco. A trail from this place led them to Jesus Maria, where they spent ten days visiting Col. Greene's property. Jesus Maria was described as quaint old place, in habited by people no less quaint. where no means of transportation could be had.
 Mulatos was the next place visited; :; then the party returned to the noun tains near the spot where the Ameri- cans were murdered last January In this connection Mir. Cullen stated that lat Douglas they saw H. L. Miller, of Los Angeles. the sole surviving mem per of the American party. Miller ex hibited several wounds on his hip as evidence of his narrow escape at that time.
 After leaving Mulatos, journey was made to Dolores, thence to Guaynopi- ta, the great copper property; then to the Sierra Madre timber proper ties, where they spent some time Much of this timber is found at an al- titude of 5000 to 10000 feet. For miles and miles at this great altitude, the trail led them for two and one-half days, through the most beautiful scenes one could imagine With the aid of the glass the eye could see for hundreds of miles in all directions, while nearby were miles and miles of fnPncr rHrfz1 AZ T that the timber was here the most beautiful that he had ever seen-vast forests of white, yellow and black pine, oak, juniper and vast quantities Iof hemlock. Many of the trees were three feet ir diameter, while from the ground to a night of from 75 to 100 feet countless trees were as Straight as could be imagined. without branch Ito mar the timber In this vast tract, which has attracted the admiration of the world, there are s,500, ,000 acres of maryelously clear and valuable tim. ber-the terminus of Col. Greene's great railroad project,
 A little farther on the town of Did rica was reached. This is a new in- corporated town, the plan of Col. Greene. It contains saw mills, also mill for the manufacture of tanbark cut cut s,i f iieiisiis,oiiz he streets are ularly laid out. after a carefully pre- pared plan. There is q store, hotel and other essentials.
 At Casa Grande the tourists met Col Greene and party, composed of score or more of bankers, business men, and others. nearly all of whom were personal friends of Col. Greene from New York. travelling in three private cars, the Sunset" the Edge mere" and the "Oiivet," on a visit to Greene's vast timber properties.
 Among those in the Greene party were the following: R. o. Deming, Oswego, Kan; M. L. Sperry. of the Scoville Mfg. Co, Waterbury, Conn.,; Edmund Seymour, banker, 45 Wall St., New York; c. B. Hale. of the B. N. Coles Co. 59 Cedar St, New York; c. B. Brown. New York; Judge A. B. Fall. Fl Paso. and Geo. S. Robbins, New York; Roads and Scott White.
 The entire journey was made with Iout a mishap under the leadership of their guide. George Burbank, the not led |. s. army scout, who was with I.awton in Cuba. The entire trip was made during a season recognized in
 Mexico as one of the most precipitous ever Enown in that section. For many days travel was continued in the midst of downpour of rain. while almost 'sinnumerable were the times |that resort to swimming had to be
 made while fording the swollen streams Nor did the party lose a single pack animal nor have a single accident during the entire trip. Yesterday Mir. Cullen spent the day in Bisbee. driving to Naco in the af- lternoon with Scott White. At that
 place the car "Olivet" was on hand to transport them to Cananea, where Col. Greene was insistent, the noted editor should visit the great copper lplant. Return will be made in lime ] to join the Col. Greene party and re
