Big Lumber Yards for Chihuahua.

1t is not generally known but Col.
w. C. Greene's Sierra Madre Land
and Lumber company has acquired
twenty acres in chihuahua beyond
the chihuahua and Pacific railroad
depot for lumber yard purposes. OF
this ten acres have been bought out
right and the other ten acres bonded.
The purpose of the company is to
tablish a sales yard in Chihuahua to
supply the city market and for other
towns easily reached by the railroads.
BY the first of January the COM
pany will be turning out from one of
its two big sawmills at MADEIRA 2J0,-
0l0 feet of lumber ard the other of
equal size should be running soon
thereafter Thus the Mexican lum
Der market and the markets of west
! Texas, Arizona and Sonora can be
supplied by this great enterprise.
The quality of lumber produced by
this company is proving a revelation,
especially for finishing and cabinet
work, owing to its fine grain and uni

company gets drying kilns in and
planning mills in operation all classes
of rough work and finished lumber
can be had in any quantity.
E. c. Hargrave, general manager
of the Sierra Madre Land and Lum-
Der company, one of the ablest and
most practical lumber men in the
world today, recently stated that the
Mexican market for lumber was
showing up as surprise to him and
that he was certain that it would
take a very large part of the COM
pany's output which is to be 100000
900 feet per year. As so little
lumber has always been used in
dwellings in Mexico it has been a
prevailing opinion that there would
be but 4 small market for lumber.
The reason has been and is that luni,
Der has to be imported almost en-
tirely from the states at OutrdgeOuSly
high prices. The rapid growing use
OF lumber in Chihuahua is a faiI
criterion. High class lumber al

Some Copper History.

In 1899. when the famous SeCretan
syndicate collapsed. there was an
accumulation in the hands of this
syndicate of about 40O, 200, 900 pounds
of copper. but at that time the
worlds output was only 10000, 900
pounds. or one third what it is today.
In view of the enormity of this ac
cumulation, conferences were held in
Paris at which all of the large pro-
: ducers in the world were represe nted
and the final conclusion reached was
that restricted output must lie en-
forced on pro rata basis. This was,
of course, before the days when such
a combination was prohibited by law,
as is now the case.
In the year 1889 copper sold as high
as III cents and with the collapse of
the syndicate, the prize was suddenly
dropped to 10 cents, and it required
six or seven years for the world to
absorb the 00,O0O,O 900 pounds which
had accumulated. The effort to en-
force cooperative and pro rata re-
striction of output, however, was d
dismal failure.
The next violent smash in metal
prices took place in 1901, when the
Amalgamated company and its
affiliated interests sought to force
the consumers into paying II cents
for their supplies. This attempt was
| followed by repetition of the disas-
trouS consequences which followed
the collapse of the Secretan pool, al
! though the amount of the accumula-
tion was much smaller and consti-
tuted less than p per cent. of the
worlds output at that period. In
! this connection we are in a position
! to state for the first time the exact
amount of the Amalgamated acCumu-
lation, which was 2S5, 900 pounds.
In the years 1891 and 1892 copper
sold as high as II cents and as low as
| II cents, but by reason of the revival
in general business conditions, which
for several years followed the break
in copper prices, the accumulation
was licked up with surprising rapid
ity and disappeared so quickly as to
be almost d negligible factor in the
adjustment of metal prices.
Today, by reason of the prostration
of the wire business and the very
much smaller volume Of orders taken
for all manner of electrical apparatus
other lines of consumption being
almost on a normal basis-about 200:-
900, 900 pounds of unsold copper has
been put into stock and these stocks,
instead of being carried by the con-
sumers md manufacturers are in the
hands of the producers. Boston News

GoIoradO Mining Msn ZEE Great Posi-
biIities in This Territory.

"The mining. men of Colorado are
looking tv Arizona now for big strikes
Just as they did to Nevada a few
years ago, only more so," said H. G.
Hughes in Phoenix, who is mining
man himself from Colorado.
1t was with this idea in mind that
he came to open up some mining
property for the Hackley Gold &
Copper company, but even if this
particular group of claims was not
showing up to the satisfaction of the
owners. as it is, Hughes would not
lose confidence in the mineral posi-
bilities of the territory.
The Hackley people have found
what they consider a good thing IN
the way of copper mine. 1t is
about six miles northwest of Wicken-
burg, and is said to show formation
similar to that of the United Verde.
However, that may be, the Hackley
people have run tunnel 26S feet into
the mountain and are running into
copper formation as5aying between
II and 20 per cent. copper. Hughes
saws he has followed the mineral dixie
for half a mile. The company is
naturally, therefore, pleased with
their property. But aside from min
ing matters, Hughes IS more than
surprised at finding fair to medium
grade of civilization out here in the
heart of the desert
This is my first trip out here, "
said he, land had an idea that the
west was composed of Mexicans and
Indians with a few white people of
the rough-neck kind thrown in to
leaven the lump. And 1 hesitated
long time before coming out here in
up-to- date clothes for fear of exciting
unfavorable comment. But L find
people here wh0 are better dressed
than l am, and they are courteous
and at the same time full of business.
"Now, come from Colorado
Springs and [ can only say that wish
Colorado Springs had the future that
you people have before you. Your
mineral deposits have not been half
exploited.
Il would be willing to stake my
professional reputation that within
two years this territory will excel
Nevada in spite of all the latter's
wonderful strikes. This government
reservoir will make country which
cannot be beaten agricnlturally-
Colorado Springs is at its zenith,
and it's inhabitants have nothing to
look forward to for future develop
ment. But Arizona has d truly en-
vible future

Looking Toward Total Prohibition.

Advocates of prohibition are work
ing quietly in Stafford with view of
bringing forward plan to close the
llquor houses here. One enthusiast
on this question recently investigated
the matter locally with the result
that he found thirty cases on the
pulice record and twenty-nine of
them were caused by liquor. 1t is be-
lieved to be the intention to place
these facts and many others that
have a bearing on the question before
the ptblic and have it voted on in the
not tar distant future.
There are many residents who
favor prohibition aud they advance
many reasons for their position.
They aver that the saloons bring
very little revenue to the city treas
ury and are of no benefit otherwise.
There is a belief on the part of tenn
perance advocates that the present
is an opportune' time to bring the
matter to an issue.
On the other hand, there are many
who believe that it would be I'M
polite to close the saloons, even if
the majority of the citizens were in
favor of doing 50. They state that
in many of the surrounding ranges
and mines there are numerous cattle
men and miners who come to this
city for their supplies of all kinds
becanse they can obtain drink also.
1t is stated that if the liquor houses
were closed these visitors would all

Bank O. Clifton is Prepared Serve You a
Manner.

At the Eagle mine in Parsons, N.
NJ, there has just been made strike
of the greatest Importance. a ten
foot vein, running $3.50 per ton in
gold, has been disclosed by careful
prospecting and has been traced for
a distance of one mile across the
Eagle lands. The main body of ore
here is a soft rhyolite averaging 81
per ton in gold. The gold is for the
most part very fine. a great deal of
money has been spent in the past
without entirely satisfactory results,
because of a failure to save the gold
due to lack of technical knowledge,
want of proper machinery, and in
large part to bad administration and
management.

The Cananea Herald announces in
what is apparently an official state
ment that under the present condi-
tions prevailing in the copper mar
ket the GrcenC-Cananea manage
ment has decided to curtaiI operti 1Ls
temporarily, or until conditions have
re-adjusted themselves. This proba-
bly, means that ore extraction will be
confined to the mines in the Capote
Basin and Cananea Central property.
Due to the acceptabilitw of the ores
of Puertecito and Liza mines to the
smelter, it is probable these will con-
tinue production. Following the
policy above indicated, a number OF
men have been laid OF in the last
several days.
