 Tuesday evenings stage from Gro Blaneo brought the news of big strike al the RagnaToc mines to Tucson, says the Star. 4 tunnel at the foot of lbe mountain has been in 100 feet, where the main vein was strucd. The ore is high grade, free Hold. They are not through the vein yet. This gives depth of 800 feet, the deepest workings in this section, and proves the deeper the workings go in the district the bet ter the ore is. This company IS un- usually successful. There are plenty more good mines in this district, All they want IS to be worked iu a business-like way.
 Malcolm McLeish. who made such big clean up from working Vulture tailings by the cyanide pro cess, and who for the past year mas been looking for another cha ce ot a similar nature, has caught on again. He. has purchased a large dump of tailIugs of c. l.. Hall at the Mammoth mine which is located at Gold6eld, in Pinal county. There are 300O0 tons of tailiDgs in the dump at the Mammoth and the number ot tons IS constantly being augmented by the operation of the mine and mill there. He expects to begin work within ten days, having a plant now on the way from Los Angeles and it wall be but a short time after 1t arrives before actual Operations will commence.
 There are a number of rumors at1Oat concerning large mining deals the truth of which Is not easily reached. We give the following fot what It is worth. The Farrell pur- chase of the Extension claims from | G. W. Hull was given prominence in last weeks issue. There are those who claim that W. A. Clark IS the real purchaser. This Is given color from the fact that Farrell is closely connected m business with Clark, and further that the Verde Copper | Company is preparing 10 pump water to their plant from the large spring on the Extension group. The report that the Equator law suit has been settled lacks confirmation. The report IS to the effect that the prop erty has been divided by compro- mise, Mir. Clark taking one-third of the property, while the parties back ing John Duke the remainder. MT. Clark is to extend his railroad to the Equator mine and have 800 men at work by the first of June. Mr. Dukes people will extend the Sagi- nav Southern from Williams to the mIne.-Jerome Reporter.
