Bisbee. Ariz. Nov. 29-Unprece-

circles in Sonora, Mexico, is reported
by G. A AcCarter. who has been in the
lower republic since last January au-
diting the accounts of the old Lam
pasas mine and placing the company in
position to resume operations on a
large scale. The increased activity in
mining industry is probably due TO the
increased activity in railroad building,

thing that has held back the develop

railroad to the mine has been given out,

would be the logical move for Phelps

Of significance. In the vicinity of the

than the total production of any for
