 It has been TWO years and two weeks since my last visit to Bisbee and much has been accomplished Since then OF surface and undergrouEt at all the properties. It is really ia- spring to see with what cheerfulness the management of the Bonanza Cir cie interests face and overcome diff cultiss As serious as has been the water problem they know it to be sim ply basin. there being no water at all in the levels where snnsp of sui ncient depth has been made below that level While actually sinking in the Briggs. Hoa1son and Junction shafts the pumps care for about 5000 gallons of water per minute.

The surface plant at the Greene seems to please everyone. the concentrator being of the best. It is thought that the smelter could be iIn- proved upon and in fact more smelt- ing room is needed. Opinion seems to be in Cananea that new smelter \. will be built in the valley.
 The Cananea Central is a surprise 1to every visitor. Supposition has been That the Greene Consolidated felt that it would take all of their excess earn fngs for many years to come to prop erly develop their vast acreage, afid that to turn over some of their lands to strong interests who could quickly and effectively develop the ground for them, giving the Greene third of the outstanding shares. would be goo. thing for Greene stockholders h would be only natural to suppose thai this portion of the camp would contain ore measures similar to those deyei- oped by the Greene company. The Greene company las no apologies to make fa- fee size ard cu5iify of i;s ere beds. They certaris coinparc ia vesabIy with tkus., ff any minin- camp. No criticisms can be made of Greene Consolidated. yet had they known the values that would be brourh. to lisAt i2 four or five short rsonts,s | i5 quite probable they would have Conducted the explorations thenl- sslses.
