THINGS RUN WELL
 WITH Fl TIGRE CO.

Superintendent Robert Musgrave arrived yesterday from the Fl Tigre mine where he has been directing the mining enterprise of that com pany during the past two years. Mir. Musgrave went this morning for a visit to the Courtland district.
 Speaking of the Fl Tigre mine the superintendent stated that about three hundred men are now employ. ed and that is about what it has been during the past year. Recently there has been some inconvenience on account of high water in the riv- Ter, but that trouble is now practical ly over.
 Superintendent Musgrave stated that it was the intention to follow the policy agreed upon at the annu- al meeting of the stockholders held in this city last spring when the cap ital stock of the company was in- creased to sS,OOO,OOO. At that time one million of capital stock was set aside to be used in enlarging the plant at Tigre mine so that the pro duct could be doubled. Recently ex- periments have beer carried on with a cyaniding process at the mine and the demonstration has been that this process is desirable for the treat ment of the ore. As a result of the experiment plans are now being pre- pared for a cyanide plant. Other plans of enlargement are also being prepared and it is the expectation that the Fl Tigre will soon be in a position to turn out a great deal more gold and silver than in the past.
 The Fl Tigre has wonderful rec. ord as 6 producer. With a capital stock of s65O,OOO, the property paid dividend of five per cent peI month, or sixty per annum.

GREENE BEGINS PAYING OFF HIS
 OLD DEBTS

CHIHUAHUA, Mex. Sept. 6.-Ali legal formalities having been settled satisfactorily, the payment of large amounts on debts of Col. W. C.. Greene's Sierra Madre Land and Lumber company was begun here yesterday. These debts took up practically all of 600,000 pesos to satisfy court judgments in ia yor of the Banco Minero and leading merchants of this city. It is under stood that only the principal of these debts were paid, no allowance being made for interest and attorneys fees.
 These payments have nothing to do with the labor and other claims against the s. M. L. & L. Co. It is understood that Judge A. B. Fail will take up the settlement of these at once.

MARKET SHOWED FALLING OFF
 YESTERDAY
By Frank J. Graf.

The market after three day recess opened off and looks as tho the Harri, man issues are still under the con trol of the bears. Southern Pacific, Union Pacific. Erie and Shelters were sold off freely. as well as steels, but the latter at the close was in better demand The copper shares market vas sold off from early morning. closing at about the low mark for the day. North Butte showed de cline from 50 S-s to 5s 1,2. but at the close was firm. Sueprior & Pittsburg was selling at 15 1-2. Green Cananea sold at 900. Shattuck is firm at e3 1-2. The market looks weak an am inclined to believe that we will see slightly lower prices, if bear raids are to be continued on Hartman stocks.

When the present executive commit tee assmed charge of the affairs of the congress the secretary was author ized, provided sufficient financial sup port could be secured to place a field commissioner in the several dry farm ing states to investigate soil condi-i tions, precipitation, evaporation, crop possibilities, the causes for success or failure. and whatever other matters Of imortance might arise during the year This commissioner was to assume the duties of statistician and to organize the editorial staff of the Dry Farming Congress Bulletin.
 While the congress has made re- markable advancement during .he past few months, the brief time clap sing between the third and fourth an nual sessions, has made it impossible to carry out all of the plans in mind, and the finances of the congress have not been in such condition that the governors have thought it advisable to employ field commissioner under a long time contract However, tlie governors temporarily secured the ser. vices of one of the most competent of the younger agronomists and soil men in the west, Prof. E. J. Iddings, who for many years has been a mem Der of the. faculty of the Colorado Agricultural college.
 As courtesy to the congress Mr. Iddings has given thirry-f1ve day leave of absence from his official duties at Fort Collins, and at once started through New Mexico, Texas and Arizona with commission to in vestigate conditions and to report to the congress the exact conditions as

 SOUTHLAND

According to letter received this morning by R. B. Sims, of the Dicus Plumbing company, from L. H. Wat kins, formerly of Douglas, the work of dipping the mules owned by Grant Brothers and which were an nounced to be enroute for Kelton or Courtland for the purpose of grading the Southern Pacific south from there, probably to Naco, Douglas and Bisbee is proceeding as fast as rossibla-
 The letter stated that yesterday a train load of Ecrapers and other grading equipment was loaded on this side of the line and was due to leave last night for Courtland-
 It is understood that the require ments of the government will make it necessary for the mules to remain for some time after they have been dipped as precaution against the reappearapee of the ticks.

TROPHY CUPS FOR COLORADO
 DRY FARM EXHIBITORS

To stimulate interest in the devel- opment of dry farming in Colorado, the Denver Chamber of Commerce has given three silver cups to be awarded for the best individual ex- hibits by Colorado farmers at the International Dry Farming Congress at Billings Mont, next October 25-29. The officers of the Chamber of Com merce haev been authorized to secure the cups, have them appropriately in scribed and sent to Billings. This plan was followed at the third Trans Missouri Dry Farming Congress last February by the Denver business men, with the result that much en- tbusiasm was aroused among the dry farmers in all sections of Colorado, and many competed for the cups.

COMPANY MAKES PROGRESS
 RAPIDLY

CHIHUAHUA. Mex. Sept. 7.--ba. ?. S. Pearson's Mexico Northwestern Rsilway company continues to move rapidly in carrying out its great rail road and lumber enterprises in this state. The company has. it is relia- bly stated, two engineering parties now in the field to locate line for a railroad from Nueva Casas Grand es, the southernmost terminus of its most recent purchase, the Rio Gran de, Sierra Madre and Pacific rail road, to the company's lumber town of Madeira As the company bought the Murphy timber tract of 500,00O acres to the northward of the old Sierra Madre Land and Lumber com pany tract, an effort is being made to locate line for road as near to the former tract, or into it, as possi- ble. This necessitates a line consid- lerably farther to the westward thso the old located line of Col. W. c. Greene's Sierra Madre and Pacific railroad from Nueya Casas Grandes to Sto. Tomas station on the Temo- sachic branch of the Chihuahua and Pacific railroad from this city.
 It is said that the distance from Nueva Casas Grandes to Madeira is in the neighborhood of no or 120 miles. Of course the primary object of the Mexico, Northwestern Railway company is to get it's railroad, the Rio Grande. Sierra Madre and Paci- fc, which runs from the border cit ies of Fl Paso and c. Juarez to Nue- va Casas Grandes. Chih., connected up with Madeira, where the great saw mills are soon to be put in op- eration.. To have outlets for the marketing of lumber is naturally a first object.
 Last week, H. c. Ferris, general manager of the Pearson company's railroads, accompanied by H. R. Nickerson, of New York, the latter being the president of the Rio Gran de, Sierra Madre and Pacific railroad company which recently sold that road to the Mexico Northwestern Railway company, went out to Ma dera. It is understood from reliable authority that Messrs. Ferris and Nickerson went from Made-a across country to Nueva Casas Grandes.
 T. R. Ryan, the new traffic man. ager of the Pearson railroads in this state, is organizing the traffic depart ment His prominence in railroad circles in Mexico in the past with the old Mexican Central, means that the Pearson interests in Chihuahua are planning, without doubt, more than ordinary things.
