TERRIFIC STORM BREAKS OVER
 THE CITY
Although Rain Falls In Torrents for Hour and Half, Damage Resulting Is Comparatively Slight,

One of the fiercest storms eXperi- enced in the district for a long time broke over the city yesterday after noon about 4 o'clock, and during one hour and half an enormous quantity of rain fell, causing streams to run through the streets carrying away al most everything in their path. For a time it was thought that serious dam age would result, but an investigation last night revealed the fact that the damage was comparatively slight.
 The storm came from the southeast and broke directly over the city with almost continuous flashes of forked lightning, and peals of thunder. The rain came down in torrents, and with in a short time Main street and Brew cry Avenue resembled rivers, the lat ter being by far the worse. On this thoroughfare and in Review Avenue barrels, wagons, boxes and everything else were carried away by the flood, and finally deposited in the subway, unless rescued before reaching the in- cake on Railroad Avenue. The rain kept up for about an hour and half.
 The principal damage done was to the railroad track in the rear of the library building, where about fifty car loads of rock and sand were washed down from the mountain and deposited on the right of way, completely block ing the road over which the ore-laden cars are brought from the various mines. At this point a body of water about two feet and a half deep was corralled, having only one outlet, the narrow space between the Copper Queen Dispensary and the Office Sa- loon building. The cellar and main floor of the dispensay were flooded, and the various stores along that side of the street also were flooded to more or less extent.
 It was feared that the subway would not carry off the flood. but no trouble was experienced in this quarter. the floods from Tombstone Canyon, Brew cry Avenue and Main street being easily handled.
 Naco Road between Bisbee and LO- well was badly damaged in places, where the flood from the subway cross cd the road.

WILL REhOVATE REDUCTION
 WORKS
Head of Greene-Cananea Re- duCtion Department Talks About Changes Being Made and Others Contemplated,

After narrowly missing being caught in two or three different thun- der storms, Charles F. Shelby, head of the reduction department of the Greene-Cananea Company, accom- panied by his wife, arrived in the city last evening in an automobile from the big Sonora camp, intending to stay here over night, and make the run back to Cananea this morning
 When seen by a Review reporter at the Copper Queen hotel last evening and asked concerning the object of his trip to the city. Mir Shelby stated that it had no special significance as he had been intending to make the trip to Bisbee for some time past, and decided to come yesterday, mere ly for pleasure.
 connected with the smelters and con ditiOns in Cananea, Mir. Shelby said:
 At the present time the work of Femodeling the old smelters is well under way and will be pushed stead fly forward until completed. Several of the old furnaces have been remov- ed and replaced by new ones of a more modern type, and greatly in creased capacity. When the i'm provements are finished We will be able to handle 100000 tons of ore on the shelter floor space on which at the present time, the most we can handle is 50,00O tons per month. The entire plant will be renovated and put in first class condition.
 'I do not think the work of con structing the new smelter on the mesa will be commenced until after the changes are completed in the old plant. which will probably be about the first of the year. Our production last month was about 4,000, GOO pounds of copper
 Tn the Cananea district generally the greatest prosperity prevails and everyone seems to be enthusiastic over the bright outlook, believing that within a short time it will be the greatest mining camp in the world. A great many small companies have entered the field and many of the properties are already producing var iOus amounts of copper.
 Within the past year the district has been greatly extended, embrac- ing many square miles of territory, which twelve months ago was com paratively unheard of"

The Doctor Away from Home When
Most Needed.

People are often very much disap-
pointed to find that their family physi-
clan is away from home when they
most need his services. Diseases like
cramp collie and cholera morbus require

instances proved fatal before medicine
could be procured or a physician sum
mOned. The right way is TO keep at

to mercantile houses can scarcely be
railroads would be glad to secure funds
at that figure This would indicate
that the banks are cautious just now,
for there is fear of the future, hence
the high interest demanded on CONNER
cial and time loans, yet the Journal Of
commerce says: Money is scarce in
New York"
How is it elsewhere? In all the great
interior money centers, like Chicago
and st. Louis, the banks have increas-
their loans in proportion to their de-
posts and surplus funds are scarce
there also. In fact, the banks of the
western and middle states are loaned
up to the limit, SO that even in the
event of higher interest being Offered
later III the year in New York there
would be but little chance of western
money flowing there. When the crops
begin to move, which will soon happen
in the cotton and winter wheat regions
the demand for money by the cotton
and wheat buyers will begin and must
be provided for, and yet neither the
southern nor western banks. nor the
New York banks, would seem to be in
Il condition to stand that strain on
their resources. If the crops should
prove to be light the increased price
will demand about the same amount of
cash to take care of them as if heavy

There is also the probability that
some wholesale and country merchants
will require TO borrow of the banks. or
seek extension OF time on their ac-
counts, because of the unreasonable
weather hindering the ordinary pur-
chases of scasonable goods, which
would make further drain on the
banks, just when the crop-moving sea
son is in full force.
1t would seem therefore to be wis
dom on the part of ordinary people.
planters, farmers, and others, to keep
out of debt and be cautious about pur-
chases until good crops are assured
and until the money markets are re
stored to their normal stability. for IT
may be difficult to secure temporary aC-
CommodatiOns to meet pressing bills
especially if the crops do not meet cX-
pectatiOns in quantity and price.
Prosperity based on tariff protection
is prcCarious. 1t makes princes and
paupcrs - commercial princes of the
trust magnates and paupcrs of those
with incomes tnat do not respond to
trust high prices. Experience shows
us that such republican prosperity has
always broken down of its own weight
and financial disaster has followed very
high prices. There are indications that
the present boom is Oh the verge of
collapse and it behOOvcs wise men to
be careful.
On the farmer depends our future
prosperity, and if the republican policy
of protecting the trusts could be abol-
ished, so that the farmers and con-
Sumcrs would not be compelled 10 pay
protection prices for what they buy. Il
year of light crops could be passed over
without disaster. But as it is. we must
have big crops and high prices to be
able TO pay the trusts and corporations
enough toll to keep them from a bank
ruptcy that would affect everyone.
Keep your eye on the crops.
