Interruption of Traffic.

When TIE OASIS was printed last week it was known that the railway in Sonora and on down the coast had suffered greatly from the severe storm which swept the entire region early in the week, but the extent of the damage was not known. Wires were down, and trains were not running, sp infor- nation gathered was meagre.
 Now the extent of the damage is known better, and it is settled that traffic over the entire length of the road will be interrupted some time before trains can be run through. At present trains are running between Nogales and Her. mosillo only on the north end, the fine steel bridge across the So- nora river having been damayed so severely by the great flood that swept down the river that the structure will probably have to be replaced, which will be a matter of some weeks. A temporary pile bridge, to permit crossing of trains will be thrown in the shortest time possible.

Lives Lost.

AdVices from the upper reaches of the Sonora river are 10 the effect that the disastrous floods of last week were attendant with consider able loss of life. About q score are reported drowned between Arizpe and San Antonio, the latter a point on the river near the Chispas mine. For a distance of a dozen miles or more the river threads a tortuous course through a narrow cafion between lofty rock walls on either side. At places the caaon widens away leaving between the river and the lofty rock wall towering above a little area of alluvium two or three acres in extent. At such places homes had been estab- lished, houses built and the land cultivated. When there rushed down the caion the great flood which wrecked the large steel rail- way bridge near Hermosillo, the vast volume of water filled with out doubt the caiion to the very top of the walls, overwhelming in the flood the homes described and drowning their occupants.

RETURNING CONFIDENCE
lr Mexico Marked by Big Land Deal. Mir. N. A. Smith SelIsa
 prineipalIty.

AAl&b kAlC tAL0AANAAhA0i NiN ANACiA hhA Mexico was awaited with keen in- terest by many would be investors was fact well known 10 all paying any attention to the course of events in our sister republic. Should the elections pass in an orderly manner without violence and without exhibition of any tendency to military usurpation 1t was felt that the result would augur a long period of peace and prosperity, safety for investments, and an.era of remarkable material investment.
 As soon as the election was over and the augury proved good the long anticipated movement com menced, and accounts of important transactions are reported already, with the election but two weeks passed.
 One of the heaviest of the trans actions reported was negotiated by MT. II. A. Smith of Tucson and Hermosillo, the sale embracing h2 800 acres of fine land in the great lldn0 the Sonora railway crosses between Santa Ana and Pesqueira. The purchasers are F. II Hilliker of Los Angeles and the Sonora Valley Company, embrac- ing Los Angeles and Seattle capi- tai. The deal was made at Mag. dalena early last week, and the total consideration for the two tracts conveyed amounted to $ll8,- l65, American money.
 The deal embraces the sale of La Mula and Cumora ranches, of which Mir. Leon Serna of Santa Ana was the owner, aggregating 46,000 acres, and 6500 acres that were owned by MT. A. M. Conard of Nogales. The land covers a great area on the lldao in the vicin- ity of Noria station, near which is located the reduction plant of the Sonora Smelling Company, of which MT. Conard Is general mana ger. The soil is very fertile and susceptible of raising large crops of wheat, corn and cotton. Cult. vated without irrigation there have been raised fine crops of corn and wheat, and the new system of dry farming may be operated there successfully. But as stated in a former article in TIE OASIS, there has been projected large dam for impending water at practicable location, which will create a reser- yor that will supply water amply sufficient to irrigate the entire tract.
 The purchasers will subdivide the property immediately and sell 1he tracts to farmers experienced in intensive farming in California and elsewhere, and within few years it will become one of the most attractive and most wealthy settlements in Mexico. A townsite will be plated on the tract ad. D lacent to Noria, which will become the center of operations.
 The sale was in hand some weeks, but final consummation was delayed through disposition tc await the outcome of the presiden' hal election in Mexico. As soor as that was settled the deal went

MIXING 4 GOOD SHOWING.
Sends Interesting ln- formation from the Sheehy
 Mining Camp.

SHEEHi CAMP, Sept. Z4th, l9ll' EDITOR TIE OAsIs:-
 As this camp is coming to the front as a producer as development progresses l thought it would not be amiss to give brief explanation of the camp and its surroundings in your much esteemed and widely circulated paper.
 The Sheehy.O'Donnell group comprise twenty.one or two claims adjoining, mostly all showing min eral on the surface, the character of which is lead, silver and zinc. Shipments of thirty-ive and forty ton lots continue to be made regu- larly. In all about two hundred and fifty tons have been shipped from the camp, which gave satis- factory returns to the owners who are we'll deserving. of 1t for their energy and perseverance. The main shaft on the Glove, the mine in which the most development has been done, Is down 10 a depth of sixty or seventy feet in ore, all the way from the surface. At present the ore body is eleven feet in width and requires but very little sorting as it comes from the shaft. Another shaft is being sunk about seventy five or eighty feet from the old shaft and 1t IS all in ore the full width of the shaft.
 The camp is situated about five miles from the Southern Pacific railroad and about seven miles from Tubac on the west slope of the Santa Rita mountains. There is a natural wagon road to the mine with a very slight ascent from the railroad. The general forma- ton is lime granite on the south slope of a lime mountain which raises gradually 10 an elevation of about five hundred feet. The course of the mineral brlt seems to be northwest and southeast. The porphyry and granite contact lies on the south side of the veins, and the lime on the north. The situa. ton of the camp for railroad con. venience, wood and water and mineral, cannot be excelled in the county, or l could justly say in the territory.
 Adjoining the Sheehy. .O'Donnell camp is Mir. Allen on the east who has also a group of claims from which shipments in carload lots are being made regularly with good results. The character of the ore is lead. silver and gold.
 Abundance of pine timber for mining can be had about three miles northeast from the mines. This is a section of country to which mining men of means who are anxious to acquire good prop. erty should pay attention as the mineral is here, both in quality and quantity.
 The time Is not remote when some enterprising company of means will reap good harvest by investments 1t this camp. It would be a great convenience and one very much needed if the railroad company would erect a platform at Charivez station as at present all loading has to be done from the ground. Besides the ore shipments

Company, and, in the process of con-
solidation Johnson was froze out His
company had been giving seven fares
for "a quarter while the other line
charged 5 cents each fare. After
the absorption the scent fare was
universal.
AS soon as he had taken his oath
as Mayor. Johnson opened the drst
broadside for a 8 cent fare and for
prevention VI extension Of franchises
on various streets, excepting upo1
that basis. Fourteen injunction suits,
three of which went to the United
States Supreme Court, were brought
during the early stages Of the duel.
The most exciting incident Of the
fight in its earlier stage however
came in 1902. when franchise pre-
pared by Mayor Johnson providing
for Scent fares and The right Of the
city to buy the lines ut any time was
introduced and passed.
Then the lawyers for the railway
went into court and contended that
the charter of the City Of Cleveland
was null and void, being class or spe-
ctal legislation. The courts had
known this all along, but had wink
ed at 1t for nearly forty years. The
issue was forced however, and the
courts ruled that such was the case.
not only with cleveland, but with
Chic cities. A special session OF
thu Legislature had to be called to
lass new code granting charter to
all cities affected by the courts de-
cision.
Again Johnson began plans for D.
cent fare company. It ives necee-
sary though, to get around the Ohio
laws, which prevent a city from own
sng CT operating car lines. He ac-
camplished this by organizing the
Forest City Railway Company, to be
operated under lease by the Municipal
Traction Company to which the coun
Gil. controlled by the mayor. granted
a franchise illegal, however, on the
ground that some IF the necessary
permits from property owners hml

Or one street the council ordered the

the mandate was not obeyed Mayor

could be served. He kept on with
the work, though, after getting the

Finally Defeated.
The fight dragged On merrily
through eight years. Every technical
ity that presented itself was taken
advantage of by Johnson's enemies
but the line at length began giving
service on the Scent fare basis.
Contrary to Mayor Johnson's con-
tention that in Cleveland street rail-
way could make a reason ably profit
and pay dividends On 2-ceht far
basis, his municipal line lost mon-
