Bisbee daily review., 1907-08-11

i beginning of placing the structural
 steel in position for the ffty-foot ad- dit.On to the large powerhouse. The l foundations for this extension were 1 completed some time ago, as were al | so the foundations for the large blow
 CT engines and other machinery which | they will accommodate, but there was delay in the arrival of structural steel. All the material is now on the ground and this addition is expected to be completed in about two weeks The reverberatOry furnace, which has been under construction for more than six months, has been completed but it has not yet been placed in commis- | sion, partly owing to the scarcity of | fuel oil which is to be used for heat and then there are some connecting l tracks yet to be laid. This new fur
 mace is somewhat of an experiment,
 as yet, and it is intended for use in smelling the flue dust ores which are l received from the mines.
 \ Material has begun to arrive for 'the addition of 125 feet which goes on the west end of the main shelter 1 building. When all the material has. arrived this extension will be placed | This addition is for the accommodate l ton of other new furnaces.
 Nine furnaces have been kept stead-s | fly in blast since the first of the month and the daily product is said to be about what the average has been since the first of the year, ex- cept during the time when matte was
 being shipped here from Morenci dur ing the construction of the new con- verter plant for the Detroit Copper company.
 The feeling of fear on account of the presence of the Western Fedora
 ton organizers in Douglas is begin
 ming to wear of and notwithstanding the activity of the ag:tatoTs there is a feeling of confidence that the efforts
 to bring trouble on the smelter em-
 ployes in this city will be futile. It is well known here that the attitude of the companies here VIII be the same as in Bisbee. The Western Fed eration will never be recognized here The organizers know this and only hope to be able to cause uneasiuess because Of their presence. Should any considerable number of the smelt- CT employees obey a strike call here it is believed tbat the smelters would be promptly shut do-T. In this case at eAS S- t1hN A. NAAG ItN COuStIutNluh work would be hurried forward. while at the Queen a campaign of general repair work and cleaning up would be carried on. However, it is not be feyed that the Western Federation can ever secure membership here large enough to effect the steady op- eration of the smelteys.
 RETURNS FRoM MINER
 ,. D. TomliBson and B. N. fg5rton tAe Douglas mining engineers, re turned today from trip through cen tral and southern Sonora during which they obtained control of fouf new mines and witnessed the great, est activity yet seen in the Chispas
 district near Arizpe. MT. Tomlinson said this morning:
 There are twenty or thirty operat- ing camps in and around the great Chispas mine and the nearby settle ment of Arizpe is fast becoming an American town. A constant stream
 of Americans pours south from Cana nea and southwest from Nacozari and the boom all over the district is as tonishing Gold, silver and lead
 sheets are chiefly uncovered. Mr. Norton and have obtained control of and within thirty days will begin 10 operate the St. Augustine No.
