TOM eSTONE eOY
 BLOWN TO PIECES.

Literally blown to pieces when nearly 50 pounds of dynamite explod ed in some unexplained manner, was .he fate of Willie McCargo. l6-year- old adopted son of Mir. and Mrs. Alex McCargo. Of Tombstone, late today shortly after 200 o'clock this ar ternoon the whole district was shak en by the explosion which cost the youth his life. and which almost re- suited in the death of his father. A.eI McCargo. and partner. Wm. Blaci; burn. who were working in a drn; got over 6O feet distant. Their lamps were blown from their hands. and they were knocked to the ground by the severe concussion, the on.y thing that saved them being the fact that the powder was located aroual ' n offset in the drift and near ;iia surface. Lamps of leasors over 2o0 feet away in other workings were also blown out by the concusSion. and they were forced to abandon their posts by the heavy powder smoke. which almost overcame McCargo and Blackburn before th,> could reach the surface by ladder in another nearby shaft
 Rescuers who went down as soon as help could arrive were almost overcome by the fumes before the body was brought 10 the surface and i, was necessary to use respirators 10 facilitate the work.
 The body of the victim was found lodged in the drift about 4O feet be low the spot where the terrific ex- plosiOn occurred. having become wedged in loose timber that had been blown from the platform above. where the powder had been stored.
 Just now the accident occurred will never be known. but the theory i. that in some manner the boy either allowed a rock to drop on precus- sion cap or opened his carbine lamp To refil! and becoming isnited the carbide caused the slight concussion that set off the entire charge of 50 pounds of powerful explosive. which tore the unfortunate youth to pieces and endangered the lives of the oth. er workmen
 IL was fully three quarters Of an hour before the remains of Ahe body were brought to the surface. tied in q blanket, and the inquest was held at the spot of the tragedy by Judge II. P. Merrill. before they were brought to the Hennessy-Allison nn- dertaking establishment here.
 
 Mr. McCargo. who was overcome with grief and exhaustion. was taken 10 his home before the body was brought to the surface
 The shaft where the accident oc- cured is located midway between the Tranquility and Silver Threa mines which both connect in the un- derground workings
 That several others were not killed by the explosion was nothing short ni mirafulous. according to the opir- ion of several who witnessed the ey- plosion from the surface. Tons O. rock and dirt were thrown almost |, hundred feet in the air when the ex rlosion occurred.
 J. C. Cochraham. who was pros pecting nearby, saved himself "uly by running for cover under i,ridge. ~hile mechanics who were working In a pipeline near the Tranquii:ty | had just went inside minute before ] the accident happened.
 The young man had been helping lis father and partner for several l days on the lease and had no. been | in the habit of handling the dynac,ite, j plosion resulted from the car!; le ! Imp. which he had gone to refill

Garbanzo growers of Sonora and Sinaloa will soon be able to place their products in ware houses of Nogales, Arizona, without violating any of the re gulations of the Mexican gov ernment, nt,according to 8 telegram received from President Obregon by the Nogales, Sonora, cham Der of commerce.

 June 5. 1921. Chamber of Commerce.
 Nogales, Sonora.
 Your courteous telegram of yesterday. I do not know who placed restrictions on gar0anzo transactions as the executive of my charge does not feel inclined to discriminate against free trade in garbanzos. Referring to stor age in Nogales, Arizona, I be lieve that such a measure would be highly beneficial to the hold CTS of crops and the matter has been taken up actively with the purchasers of the old crop, de monstrating to them the fact that garbanzos warehoused in the American city does not mean a violation of the clause in the sale contract which compels sell CTS not to export the new crop before November 30 of this year in accordance with the decree placing an embargo issued by this Federal Executive office at the request of a majority of gar banzo growers. As soon as the matter will be made clear to purchasers the permit requested by you will be granted.
