WEEKLY MINING REPORT.
A Steady Output With No
 Great Developments.
The Mining Interests iii the Territory
 Active.

The past week has shown no great changes in this particular locality neither has any startling change taken place in the Territory. The Harqua Hala strike is not by any means a fraud, neither is it the siupendous strike which it has been represented to be by those who have an object in booming it. A letter received by Bob Upton, of this city, from party well known here, who is at present in the Centennial district, states that the outlook is very favorable for a camp but nothing has been done vet to prove anything beyond the existence of very large ledge or deposit of gold bearing rock.
 The new discovery near Nogaies is attracting some attention. The Silver Belle district is on the eve of q verita- ble boom and Pima county is rapidly striding to the front as bullion-pro- dncer.
 In our own county the outlook is by no means discouraging. The Cop per Queen continues 10 be the largest producer of copper in the Territory and the prospect of the French syndi- date, which controls Sj per cent of the output of the world, making con tracts for a term of If years at the present rate, has stimulated many owners of copper properties in that yi cinity to work their claims, which show that there is an abundance of virgin 2. oind there still uudeyeloped
 In our own particular district some few changes for the better have taken place. The hitch in the removal of the Head Center mill from Contention to Tombstone has been overcome and the work will probably Lc begun this week and completed us soon as men and teams can do it.
 Work will also Do commenced on the Ground Hog and Vizina. The ex- tensive dumps Of the latter mine will pay to run through the mill, and will probably be so treated as soon as the stamps are ready to drop.
 The usual amount of rich ore has been shipped from the Herschal dur ing the week. The Mamie has started up again.
 The Franklin is showing up very rich ledge of ore, as is also the Sea Serge and other claims on this little bonanza ledge. Jack Martin, who owns the north extension of the Mamie, is cutting for the ledge with the prospect of getting something good when he does strike it, as the Mamie shows stronger and better in the north end than elsewhere.
 The Emerald continues to ship her share of rich ore, while we will proba- ply be able to chronicle in our next re- port the starting of the new machinery at the Bunker Hill.
 The T. Nj. and NJ. Company are moving along doing large amount of development work and showing up inn mense bodies of ore, only enough being extracted from the three claims being worked to pay running expenses.
 All told there are about 300 men employed in mining in this district at present, including chloriders. There would be twice that number if those who own property would work it or allow someone else to do SO.
