s. A. D. Upton, Esq., Is in the City and Tells of Mining
 in Chihuahua.

the legal department or the Greene Goid-Siiver company. with headquar- scrs at Temosachie, arrived in the city last evening from Tombstone and will remain to attend the Democratic Territorial convention and be present at the nomination of his old friend. Mark Smith, who he knew intimately fin Tombstone more than twenty years ago. When seen last evening by the Review man at the Copper Queen ho- tel and asked regarding the operations of the Green Gold-Silyer company. and the opportunities aaorded pros pectors in that district. MT. Upton had the following to say:
 '.The work now being done by the Greene Gold-Silver company consists mostly of rehabilitating the various mines in the Ocampo. Navidad and other camps. the history of which is closely connected with the great out put of gold and silver in the past three quarters of a century. At La Navidaj the work of erecting the three hundred and fifty ton reduction plant is progressing favorably. and in the shortest time that Such work could be accomplished. the mill will be producing bullion.' The mine from which tire ore will be extracted for this mill is one of the most promising in the whole district. The bodies all ', IL tude as insures a continual supply for many years of the amount required for the above mentioned mill.
 At Ocampo the different mines of the company are being put in shape for the extraction and reduction of ore on a large scale. It should be re- membered. in estimating the amount of preparatory work to be done. that these mines have been worked by ..gambusinos'' for many years. and. as consequence, the condition of the workings is such that only after much retimbering and securing the old workings can operations be carried on mining. During the present month two of the mills of the company, in this camp, will begin the reduction of ores and the shipment of bullion.
 Recently my duties carried me to several of the principal mines of the company in Sonora and the extreme western part of the state of Chihua- hua- A part of my Juties consisted of making contracts. in the name of Col. Greene, with prospectors on the zone conceded to Col. Greene by the Mex ican Federal Government. This zone covers nearly all of the valuable min- eral formations of the Sierra Madre in Prospectors are permitted to locate mines within the zone. retaining three fourths and Col. Greene retaining one fourth. The great advantage in pros- pecting on this zone is in this: If a prospector finds anything of merit, the company. or Col. Greene. stands ready to purchase the interest of the prospector. and will pay just as much for the three-fourths as if it were the entire mine. The idea is, the com panydesire the country prospected and they expect to develop the mines as fast as money and men can do it. There will not be the lonely waiting for some one to come and look at the prospect and then make a bond and attempt to interest eastern capital to the extent of inducing those people to send an expert to examine and report on the property and then, a year or two longer, before they make up their minds to purchase. If the prospect is good the company will purchase out right and the prospector gets his cash.
 With regard to the reports of the uprising in Mexico on the sixteenth. the only intimation we hear of 1t comes from the teiegraphic reports of irresponsible correspondents in Mex leo. of sensational American newspa- pers. Since have been at my present place of residence, Temosachic, the only trouble that has been, and that was purely local, has been created by lawless and jisreputabie foreigners. calling thmselves or being called. by the Mexicans, Americans. The Mex
 
 posed toward foreigners. especially those who seek investment of capital. I have seen a circular. issued by the department of Fomento, in the Mining Bureau. directed to all the agents of this department. in the different min ing camps of the Republic. notifying them that in all cases where there is a conflict between Mexican citizens and foreigners. and the foreigner has erred through ignorance of the law or the language, but has acted in evil dent good faith, the foreigner must be favored even to the extent of strain ing the letter of the law.
 My duties bring me constantly in contact with the authorities of the Federal and state Governments. and am sure that the expressed desire of the officials to maintain amicabIe re- lations with foreigners either as indi- viduals or corporations. is genuine"
