high Co make possible the shitn.,., of low grade ores, and pfoporton ally too low iot those ores, wb.. being high grade, could afford we'll to pay higher freight rate. Nr Douglas expressed q belief that in the matter the railway has shown excellent judgment, and he thought the policy adopted would result in development of large tonnage ior the road, and also for the reduction enterprise.
 In closing this article it be ap- propriate to present short ac- count of the personnel of the man. agement and staff at Fundicion. to several of whom the writer is under many obligations for kindly atten. ton during his visit. Mir. Theodore Douglas, the president of la Com paiiia Metalurgica y Refnadora, to whom the enterprise owes its in- ception, is a gentleman known we'll in Sonora, who has worked con stantly and intelligently number of years in development of the mines at El Cobre, securing the concessions that are so important part of the great enterprise, and the capital necessary to establish and set it going. In MT. George Sydney Binckley, the general man. ager, MT. Douglas has an able coadjutor. At the time of this visit Mir. Binckley was absent, and much of the work about the place was under charge of Mir. J. M. Brooks Jr., engineer of construction and assistant superintendent, a young gentleman who is graduate of the Missouri School of Mines, and withal very competent.
 Mir. Donald Donners, from British Columbia, had been appointed master mechanic, and was expected to arrive about the first of Sep tember; and Mr. Frank Cook is master of transportation, in charge of the traction engine service. Mir. W. P. Tucker, from Aguas Calien- tes had been engaged as account ant, and his arrival was expected daily. Mir. R. c. Evans is stem ographer In the shop the ma chinists are John Jory, Gilbert R Beagle and John Elliott. MT Albert l.. Clark is assayer At the El Cobre, E. J. Delano is mine SUI perintendent and Clarence Morgan machinist. Mir. c. w. Englehart is assistant. ALLEN T. BIRD.

to the top of the ore bins, where they will be dumped into the bins below. These orc cars are self dumping; and with all the appIi. ances described in use, the transfer of trainload of ore from the trac. ton trucks to the ore bins will be the matter of but few minutes.
 Beyond the warehouse several hundred feet is q new wostory frame hotel building that was to be opened to the public the week following our visit. And about 300 yards farther eastward is located a cluster of cabins, all of forty in number, where are housed the laborers employed about the work. South of the plant, near the rail- way track, are anumber of cottages occupied by mechanics, foremen, and other employees in the service of the enterprise.
 THE SITE
 includes about fifteen hectares of land on the east side of the Cocoraqui draw, bought from the Guadalupe ranche of Mir. Jesus VilIederain. It is and ideal site for such a plant, and offers every natural facility for it's construction and operation. Fundicion station lies at a point on the railway about two kilometres eastward, but a spur track enters the grounds and runs in among the buildings, where cars can be discharged at conven- fence and advantage in operation.
 The company has a concession from the government covering the ] plant and a railway, the latter in- cluding telegraph and telephone lines from any of it's properties to the reduction plant, and to the port of Tobari, on the Gulf of California, point only twenty five miles southward from Fundicion. At ! that point Is fair harbor of easy access to coasting vessels; and in the future development of this en- terprise construction and operation of the railway under the concession may prove very important factor, not only for the benefit of the in- dustry herein described, but in ] development of the entire region.
 At the time of our visit Mir. 1 Theodore Douglas, president of the company stated that early in No. vem Der they would be ready to be- gin buying ores, and that they expect to have everything completed and the furnace ready to blow in about that time. November 1st is the date presented in an advertisement that began running in THE OASIS the week preceding the appearance of this description ] Mir. Douglas stated that the plan adopted will be to bid on each lot of ore separ- ately, the price to be offered tc depend upon the quantity which can be shipped under contract and the composition of the ore. Such an arrangement would be very much to the benefit of the producer because those who are producing ores of relatively low grade hay. ing an excess of base over silica will get very low treatment rates while those shipping ores of higt grade with an excess of silica vii pay for it accordingly. It is advis ed that in every case the shipper } send analyses, representative sam pies, or make shipments. Aftel receiving at the shelter the neces

The rail market has shown q decided I'M
provement and the leading interest during

within q short time. or as soon as the COM

STUDYING SLEEPING SICKNESS.
German Doctors Make a Great Hit in
Central Africa.

BERLIN. September 6.-An account OF
some Of the recent experiences of Prof.
Koch, in Central Africa. where his pro-
for sleeping sickness is nearing an end,
has reached q medical friend Of the pro-
fessor In this city. About eighteen months
have elapsed since Koch left Germany on
his present mission. The letter received
here Is dated from Sese. near Emtebbe,
Uganda. July 9. and relates how native
messengers from the sultanate Of Kisiba,
situated some 200 miles southwark In Ger
man territory, had been fmplorfng the
great white wizard" to come and cure
their dying relatives.
The professor. accompanied by Drs. Ku-
dicke and F'eldmann, Travelled In native
boats to Bukaba, and thence went by cara
van inland to the great village OF Kigar-
anana, consisting Of about 1000 huts. The
German physicians were joyfuily received
by the natives and huts were erected for
tho party. an extraordinary large one as
big as the sultan's house being built for
the microscopic work Of Prof. Koch and
his assistants. who had impressed on the
natives that 1t was most highly necessary
that suitable quarters be assigned to them
for their work Within q few days 200
sufferers were brought to the hospital In
closure and injected with a toxyl according
to Koch's method. and the usual excellent
his assistants treated about 400 natives.
Prof Koch also went to the Shirati fexien
and treated between sixty and seventy ma
tives. His fame appears to have spread
throughout Central Africa, as appeals to
him for help come from remote districts
where It Is impossible for either the pro-
lessor or his assistants to go.

GLASS TELEGRAPH POLES.
German Invention to Defy Insects
and Climatic Changes.

Consular Agent Gustav c. Kothe Of Cas-
sci. Germany an agency Of the Frankfort
consulate. states that an architect of that
city has been granted patents IN Germany
and other European countries and also In
the United States for an invention for the
manu- racturing of glass telegraph and tele-
phone poles. Mr.. Kothe writes:
"a stock company has been organized
and a factory for the manufacturing of
glass poles has been built at Grossal-
merode, a town near this city. The glass
mass of which the poles are made is
strengthened by interlacing and intertwin-
Ing with strong wire threads.
Zone of the principal advantages OF these
poles would be their use in tropical coun-
tries, where wooden poles are soon de-
stroyed by the ravages Of insects and where
climatical influences are ruinOus to wood.
The selling price of the poles has not been
fixed yet, but the company Is willing to ac-
cept Is marks ($6) for a pole Of the length
of meters (about % feeD. The imperial
post department. which has control of the
telegraph and telephone lines In this coun-
try has ordered the use of these glass poles
