MELROSE GRADE TO
BE ELIMINATED.
tuesdays Spartanburg Herald)


With the view of changing the
route of the Southern railroad from
Tryon to Saluda in order to avoid
the heavy grade from Melrose to
Saluda, the officials of the road are
having new route surveyed, the work
having begun January l. A corps of
engineers are now camped at Mel
fose and are working towards Try
on.
The Proposed Route.
The proposed new route of the
road runs across the mountains to
the left hand side of the road be-
tween Tryon and Saluda. 1t is be-
lieved that this new route will give a
much lower grade and, if constructed,
will eliminate the use of the helper,
an engine that it hitched to every
train at Melrose to help it over the
mountain to Saluda. A single engine,
it is said, will be all that will be
necessary to carry a train from Try
on to Saluda. Not only will the "help-
er" be done away with, but it will not
be necessary to maintain the safety
switches which are used every few
hundred feet on Saiuda mountain.
Freight trains in coming down the
steep mountain incline find use for
these switches almost daily and by
their use many serious wrecks have
been avoided.
Present Route Costly.
The maintenance of the safety
tracks and the use of the helping en-
gine, it is said, costs the Southern
road about $4,000 per month, to say
nothing of the wear and tear onythe
engine and the rails. WatchmefcSfs
always on duty at the safety
switches, crew of several men en-
ployed on the road between Melrose
and Saluda, keeping the road-bed in
repairs, the cost of which is heavy
drain on the road.
1t is believed that if the road is re-
located grade can be secured which
will do away with the "helper" and
the safety tracks and that it will
prove big saving to the railroad
company. While the initial cost may
be considerable the officials of the
road are of the opinion that it will
pay for itself within few years.
Another Route Talked OF.
The engineers who are at work on
the line for the proposed change in
the road between Tryon and Saluda
started to work at Saluda on January
/, and have reached point near
Mclrose, a distance of three miles
from Saluda, and it is expected that
the work will be completed within
the next two weeks. When this route
is completed the engineers may be
instructed to make survey of a
route on the right hand side of the
railroad to Saluda, cutting around by
Tryon mountain and through a valley
to Saluda. This route it is said, will
afford perfect grade, but will be
considerably longer than the route
now being surveyed on the left side
Of the road.
The officials of the Southern have
for many years considered the ques-
ton of relocating the road between
Tryon and Saluda in order to avoid

MAY TAKE FEDERAL
PRISONERS AWAY
Mexfcans to Be Sent Where Artillery
men Can Guard Them so the Cav
alrymen Can Do Patrol Duty.


San Diego, Calf. July 2s.-The war
department is considering the immedi-
ate establishment Of Mexican refugee
camp on Point Iona, near Fort Rose
Grams. according to Gen Leonard Wood.
chief Of staff. Q. S. A
Gen. Wood said that there are hun
dreds Of Mexicans refugees and Mexi-
cans held for violating the neutrality
laws at Ell Paso and Nogales. At pres
emit they are detained too near the Dor
der line, where constant disturbances
have a bad effect upon them. If they
are moved to San Diego, he said, only
a small guard would be necessary for
the camp
The agitation for the release OF the
Mexican federal prisoners at Fort Bliss
and NOgales is the result Of the confer
ence which the officials at Fort Bliss
had with Mai. Gen. Wood and secretary
Of war Garrison at FL PasO last Thurs
day. It was shown to the war depart
ment heads that the prisoners were
keeping good cavalrymen off the pa
vent further escapes. To send the pris-
oners to Mexico at some neutral point
was suggested, and if not that, to send
the prisoners to Fort ROsecrans, at San
Diego, where the coast artillery could
guard them during their leisure time.
There are more than 200 Of the pris-
oners at Fort Bliss and an equal num-
Der at Nogales, all having crossed to
the American side and surrendered
when the rebels pressed them too
closely.

"GUAYMAs CAN BE
TAKEN BY REBELS"
Tim Lyons. Of FL Paso Talks With Gen.
BENJAMIN Hill, Who Commands
Rebel Troops There.


Guaymas can be taken at any time
by the rebels who surround the place
with 5000 men, under the command OF
Gen. Benjamin Hill. while the federal
garrison numbers approximately 1901
men, Tim Lyons, former city sanitary
commissioner. who has just returned
from an extensive trip through the
state of Sonora, says that Gen Hill IS
responsible for this statement with
the exception of Guaymas the entire
state is in control Of the rebels and
peace reigns. says Mr.. Lyons
The proposition of the United states
intervening, Mr. Lyons says, is not dis
eussed at all Whenever such a pos
sibility was mentioned, he said the
rebels expressed themselves as being
sorry it was even talked of, for given
three months, the Huerta government
would be overthrOwn. That is all the
time they ask
The Sonora rebels are planning to
take Chihuahua, according to Mr..
Lyons, who said that 1000 are now
crossing the Sierra Madres to reach
Ninaca, where the railroad runs direct
to Chihuahua If the schedule is ad-
hered to the rebels should surround
chihuahua on August 8, when the at
tack viii be commenced.
A week ago last Sunday Mr.. Lyons
was at Cruz de Piedra, where he saw
Gen. Hill. At a small station Just 20
miles north Of Guaymas he saw Older
Mason. with his aerOplane. Mason,
according to Mr. Lyons, had made a
number of flights over Guaymas, and
was at that time preparing to make
others. Lyons had been told, he said,
that the flights were more or less ex-
perimental. Dixon, who is with Mas
son, told Mr.. Lyons that he had been
up 1900 feet and had dropped bombs
within 80 feet Of the mark. Several
flights had been made over the harbor
at Guaymas, and observations Of the
town taken.
Mr.. Lyons visited Santa Rosa, scene
of battle between the rebel forces under
command Of Gen. Hill and the federals
commanded by Gen. Ojeda. -Four hun
dred federals were killed in this battle,
500 taken prisoners and 200 were
wounded, according to the rebels. Nine
cannon and six machine guns were
taken in addition to two million rounds
of ammunition. Ojeda, Mr.. Lyons said,
succeeded in getting back into Quay
mas with 1900 or 1900 men.
NO one could have been treated
better than I was by the rebels" said
Mr. Lyons. Gen Hill furnished me a
horse and an escort Of 20 armed men
to make the trip from Cruz de Piedra
to MaytorenO. Gen. AlvaradO there
gave me a military pass, and I rode on
the military train from there into
HermosillO."

From HermosillO Mr.. Lyons went to
