TOREsUME ACTIVITY.
Plant VIII Be Built Soon to
Handle the Low
Grade Ore.

NogaIes, Ariz-, Dec. 21.-WOrd comes
to NogaIes that the work at the Aus
terlitz mine in the ORC Blanco district
was shut down last week until plans
could be made to build a plant 70
handle the ore on the ground. This
mine was bonded from DIT. Noon, Of
Nogales. last summer, by Woodwork
and Lane, who have been working d
large force Of men there ever since.
Almost Immediately after having
taken over the property large bodies
Of very rich copper ore were uncovered
and the original plans for the build
ing of a plant nthe ground were
abandoned as the ore was so rich thaJ
it could be hauled to the railroad and
shipped prOfitably. However, It now
seems that the ore is leaner than 1t
was at first and in much larger guam
titles so the work has been temporar-
lily suspended until the original plans
can be carried out About 1zO men
were laid off and only six kept at
work on contracts which they had not
completed. 1t is thought that work
can be resumed again by the first OF
the year

to wait until he could be assured OF

he started up again. 1t IS stated that
millions of dollars worth of fine cop

Another fine property, which has re-

not started on account of the revolu-

several times during the work on the
plant Many tons of high grade cop

Notwithstanding the various rumors
of trouble in the state of Sonora, dur
ing the last two weeks, no notification
of these rumOrs has been obtained and
everything is exceedingly quiet in the
revolutionary line at the present time.

WICHITA OIL FIELD
PROVES VALUABLE

Washington, D. c., Dec. 21.-The fea-
lures of greatest interest in the pc
trOleum industry in Texas in 1911, &C
cOrding to a United States Geological
survey report, was the discovery and
development of the Electra pool, in
Wichita county, on the northern edge
of the state. The oil in the field proves
to be of an exceptionally fine quality,
being almost identical with Pennsyl-
vania oil. There is considerable pros
pect of extending this pool to the
southeast and the southwest. and good
Indications of oil are found as far
east as halfway to the next producing
region, in CLAY county. The latter dis
trict has not been a s profitable as the
new Electra field. but has yielded suf-
ficient gas to supply Wichita Falls,
Dallas and Fort Worth
Much prospecting is going on in the
western half of Texas in many die
ferent localities, where seepages and
other indications show the probability
of fine oil supplies. says the report.
