 that the Copper Qlsen is s great pgopo-
 sition The main shaft is down 800 feet and drifts on that level have ex-
 posed eDongh ore to keep the present force of miners busy for many years

A Great Mining Suit Reaches an End
 at Prescott.

 When Judge Sloan returned to Pres
 oott from this city Sunday morning he found that the jury in the case of 1 Schuermsn vs. Jordan had reached B ineeotion. The verdjos found for the plaintiff and gave to M-. Gso. Sehuer~ msn title to the inning property over which such A hard fight had been
 made.
 The property involved is group of copper claims not far from Jsrome.
 They are of so much value that Hay den, 8 Colorado millionaire, who is ss ssting in the defense, is said to have offered S40,000 for them If they could te transferred to him with an uodisputod title. W. A Clark is back of the plaintiff, Jordan. This ie the th,rd suit over the claim. The first, the title Jordan vs. Duke, was tried at Prescott and resulted in a verdict for the de- fense. Another trial of the seme cesa was had at Tucson less than s year ago with similar result.
 That this decision ends the case cap- not be expected and it is thought by those who have been intere sted that an appeal will bs taken to the Supreme court O. the Territory aud possibly to the Suprems ,ura of .hs United Ssatss before those interested are satisfied.
