MARICOPA COPPER Wonderful Find Fifty Miles Southwest of the City
  A HUNDRED FOOT LEDGE
Believed to be the Mother Lode
 of That Mineral Section
1t Is Estimated that the Ledge Will
 Average Twenty Per Cent. Three Phoanix Men Hays control of the Big Bonanza

Maricopa has a big copper bonanza. The strike was made few weeks ago by R. A. Warford and he arrived in Phoenix yesterday with samples of the ore for assay. The ore he brought was the richest copper ore ever discovered in this county, if not in the territory. The croppings assayed 15 per cent copper and small gold value, but at the depth of the location work-ten feet-the values in copper and gold are increased wonderfully. It is esti- mated by MT. Warford that the entire ledge will average 20 per cent. The ledge he says is 100 feet in width and can be traced for long distance across the low hills of the desert. Th.s is one of the biggest lodges the terri tory has ever produced, and there is no question that bonanza has been discovered which will equal in extent and richness the best copper mines in Arizona.
 The strike was made fifty miles southwest of Phoenix near Cot ol- wood, four miles from the Gila river The country there is a great stretch of desert with low rolling hills, and it was in these small hills that the big ledge was found. Prospectors have not operated in that region owing to it's distance from the river and the scarcity of water in the hills. Seven claims have been located by MT. War ford, who has associated with him John Eryich and A. J. Reynolds Of Phoenix. They will begin immedia e. ly to develop the property.
 MT. Warford brought some samples of the ore to The Republican office yesterday, and the ore was seen by number of mining men during the day. All were of the opinion that bonanza has been found, and tine strike will be visited by many mining men this week. Speaking of the strike MT. Warford said: This is the biggest ledge I have ever seen. It is 100 feet wide, and I am convin ed that it is the mother lode of that mineral section. The ledge can be traced for a long distance. It dips at an angle of 45 degrees, and is a true Assure vein It is the biggest bonanza ever struck Tn the southwest. There are no mines in that section of the coun- try, and prosrectors have not gone in there to work for this reason. We will develop our claims ourselves, and 1 believe there will be a big camp down there in a short time. The ledge rurs northeast and southwest. We have named the group the Reynolds"

Investigation of ths Maine Dis
 aSter Far From Ended
MANY WEEKS C0NF2OIIIN ]
The Court of inquiry will Re-
 turn to Havana Tomorrow
This Rsfutes Story that the Search Had Proved that the Battls Sr p Had Bean Blown up sy tn 5 Desl,!n Of Ire ach erous Spaniards

Washington, Feb. 2S.--At the close of office hours a telegram came to the navy department from Admiral Sica-d at Key West, in the following terms:
 ''Key West, Feb. 2S.
 'To the Secretary of the Navy, Washington: The court Of inquiry will commence a session at Key West today. They must resume the session at Havana to obtain the evidence of the divers after their work on the wreck.
 (Signed) ~.'SICARD."
 The important feature of this com munication is the declaration that the court will return to Havana. It sets at rest the rumors that have bean current for days past that the cou.t was not to return to Havana for the reason that it had discovered the cause of the sinking of the Maine, which was not an accident, and that ttey had consequently no further business in Havana
 One important deduction to be drawn from the message was that the report of the court of inquiry can scarcely be expected for several weeks to come. The court will be occup ed at Key West for some days at least in taking the testimony of the sur vivors there. Then upon the return to Havana it is expected that good deal of time must elapse before the divers can get through the mud wh. .ch now encompasses the lower part of the wreck of the Maine and exam ne the bottom.
 After this is done the court must deliberate in order to secure an agree ment upon their finds.

SPAIN BOUGHT HER VICTORY.
Paid s6O0,00O to Philippine Leaders to
 Stop Fighting.

San Francisco, Feb. 2S.-The Philip pine rebellion was suppressed, but the news comes to Hong Kong, where thirty-five of the rebel leaders sought refuge, that the Spaniards gained the victory not by force of arms, but by a subsidy of S6OO,0OO and a safe con- duct out of the country.
 The general impression at Manila is that the insurgent leaders will use this money to purchase improved weapons, and that when all prepara- tions are made another revolution will begin. With modern weapons and plenty of ammunition the insurgents in the recent revolution would have been able to take Manila and capture all the islands.

COOKING STOVE BLOWS UP.
A Cartridge Is Supposed to Have Been
 the Cause

New York, Feb. 28.-Mrs Rosanna Higgins moved into a flat on the first floor of the five-story tenement at 2393 Second avenue late this after noon, and as soon as she could get her small cooking stove set up in the kitchen she built a fire in it and pre- pared to get supper. After putting some beef in the oven to roast she ran upstairs to visit her sister, who lives on the top floor. She had barely reached the upper rooms when there was an explosion that shook the house.
 Mrs. Higgins ran back to her roons, followed by most of her neighbors, and found the kitchen in confusion Something in the coal had exploded d, demolishing the stove and scattering the hot coals all over the f1cor. The glass in the kitchen windows had been blown into the back yard, and sev- eral panes of glass had been smashed in the front windows Flames were starting up all over the kitchen floor wherever the hot coal had been scat tered. The iremen who were sum moned put the fire out easily, and the damage was only $25.
 There was not enough of the stove, or contents left to tell what had caused the explosion. Mrs. Higgins is sure she had nothing about the house that would explode, unless a cartridge or something like it, had got mixed up with the coal before she bought it.
