WILL NOT coMFIscATe MINES.

According to American mining men who are "refugeeing" in the city, the report that the Mexican government is to seize and work the various mining properties in the state, is ridiculous and if true would result in no hardship to the American owners. t~
 The reason is that there is DO market for ore in Mexico and when it is shipped to this side to be sold the owners of the mine from which it was shipped can attach the ore and gain posses sion of it. This was proved by the course of events following the confication of the Cinco de Mayo mine by the Mexican gov ernment. When the ore reached this side it was attached by the owners and as result the Mex ican government ceased working the mine.-Tucson Citizen.
