main tents owned by the United Soci-

last night for the first time during the
eighteenth International convention
and both contained full quota of 49,
600 and as usual hundreds of others

the outer edges. Many visiting dele
gates from long distances came in yes
terday, swelling the number of strang-
ers and delegates, it is believed, to the
10000 mark The convention days are
essentially days of song. Although
last night the big choir was divided be-
tween the two tents there seemed to be
little diminishment of song or much
in the number of singers in each. AS
for the audiences the spiritual enthu-
siasm expanded with the passage of
the hours. Wednesday there was lit
tie street enthusiasm. Thursday it de-
veloped in the big feature of the con
vention and even the mayor of De-
troit was forced to sing. Street car
loads spun along the streets singing.
Many groups sang by the wayside,
aside from those who Joined the squads
of MONDAY workers in the business
houses and factories. They sang at
the afternoon rallies and sang in the
evening en- route To the night gather
ings, sang with redoubled vigor after
again assembling and then sang on
their way home.
Ten thousand people crowded into
Tent Williston for last evenings eXer-
ciscs. The decorations of Tent Willis
ton were similar to those of Tent En-
deavor and fully as elaborate. Presi-
dent Clark presided over the meeting
and cXSecretary Foster of Washington
was musical director. The devotional
exercises were conducted by Rev. w. +.

Christian EndeayOr monogram was
shown from large red and white cleo
trio globes over the resonator suspend
ed above the speakers platform. High
er up were the Union Jack and stars
and stripes intermingled. Thousands
Of white capped young men and maids
composed the choir on the big stage,
the front of which was occupied by the
officers and clergy. Promptly at 1880
the comparative silence was broken
by the swelling strains of the
song God Goes Forth to War
followed by There Shall Be Showers Of
Blessings, Onward Christian Soldiers,
etc, in all of which the great crowd
enthusiastically joined. The welcome
of the local committee was extended by
William II. Strong, chairman. Mr..
Strong dwelt upon the beauties Of De-

on behalf of the local Christian En-

Mohave County miner., 1899-10-28

The second monthly cleanup was
made at the King of Arizona last Tues,
day and the result was very satisfac-
tory, even better than was anticipated
by the management. The exact amount
of gold produced has not yet been
made public, but is known to be in the
neighborhood of 3O,OO0S. G. F.. Eichel-
berger, discoverer of the King of Ari-
zona, in company with his old-time
partner, Jack Rivers, returned We'd
nesday morning from a tour of the
King and Plomosa districts. They
made an important discovery of copper
ore in the Plomosa district, about fif-
teen miles from Tyson Wells, and will
soon begin development of the same.
The outcropping is forty feet wide and
majority of the ledge matter will
bear shipment. While no assays have
yet been made the samples brought in
carry high per cent of copper and
possibly good values in gold. The new
find is located thirty-five miles from
the Colorado river and if the surface
indications go down the discoverers
will soon begin the shipment of ore on
large scale. Messrs. Eichelberger and
Rivers state that the miners in the
Plomosa district are all prosperous,
especially the drywashers. More men
are at work and greater amount of
gold is daily being produced than at
any former time in the history of the
Sun.

Green Wins Cobre G-ande.

The controversy over the ownership
of the property owned by the Cobre
Grande Copper company in Cananea
mountain, has been settled by mutual
agreements. Under the terms ar
rived at, W. G. Green, George Mitchell,
Professor Treadwell and their friends
secure control of the property, and J..
II. Costello and J. Henry Wood sur
render all claim to it. This compre-
hends, of course, the withdrawal of all
litigation, and leaves this great prop
erty free to be developed for the pro-
duction of the wealth il contains. The
new company will be known as the
Cananea Consolidated Mining Com
pany of Mexico.
j. Henry Wood, who will retire as
secretary of the company as soon as he
can arrange the affairs of his office, ar
rived in Nogales yesterday morning.
He confirmed the news of the agree
ment, and said that Mr.. Green's ap-
pointees are now in charge of the prop
erty. He said also that the extent of
the ore deposits discovered in the
mines has increased enormously in the
past few weeks, and that great camp
is certainty. The company. he said,
will increase its smelling facilities, and
will without delay add every modern

Thomas kneale, interested with j. M
Albright in working over the failing:
of the Princesa gold mine at Alamo
returned to Lower California last
night to resume work. He gives a
glowing account of mining business in
and around Alamo, the camp being in
a more prosperous condition than at
any time since the Princesa and Aurora
were turning out bullion, and the lit
tie town was full of miners, nine or ten
years ago. Kneale and Albright have
good enough thing of it in the Prin-
cesa tailings, and are making money
by means of their cyaniding plant.
Perhaps the best looking of the quartz
mines in the camp at present is the
San David, formerly owned by the
Princesa Mining company, but which
was never systematically developed
until taken in charge some months ago
by the Sterling Mining Company of
Pittsburg, Pa, concern that is for
tunate in having a manager on the
ground that, according to report,
knows how to make good mine pro-
duce bullion. He is George p. Brown,
one of the most wide-awake men in the
Alamo section. He has been in San
Diego and Los Angeles the past few
days, having brought up a bar of gold
from the San David mill, which is kept
going almost constantly.
The Texas mill and mine, own ed by
the company in which Senator Cock.
rell, of Missouri is interested, is kept
busy. The property looks we'll, and is
every day becoming more valuable.
The old Aurora, the first and only real
bonanza mine in the camp, though for
some time it has not been giving bo- |
nanza returns, is again in good ore. A
fine body OF ore has also been encoun-
,ered in the MonteZuma mine, and the
irande mine, owned by Joe Playter,
9 keeping up with the procession.
There are many other good prospects
n the Alamo section, and the owners
ire looking forward to lively and
prosperous winter. The placering is
productive of good results, though the
'reater part of the work in the bitches
s done by Cinnamon. There are at
east 600 men in the camp at present.

PERSONNEL BILL PASSED.

Naval Oficers Have Worked for the
Measure for Decade.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-The house
passed the naval personnel bill without
division on the final passage, thus &C.
complishing what the officers of the
navy have stnven for during more than
a decade. By its provisions the line and
engineer corps are welded into an ANAL
gamated line, staff officers are given
positive rank, but their command is
limited to their own corps and q system
of voluntary and compulsory retirement
on three-quarters pay is established,
which is designed to remove the con.
gestion in the lower rank at As. The
bill also practically equalizes their pay
with that of army officers.
Three important amendments were
Adopted. One creates q judge advO-
Gates court, another ah0lishes prize
money and third provides for the re-
tirement on three-quarters pay OF en-.
listed men and petty officers in the navy
after 30 years service But the most
important change in the bill as reported
was the adoption after a hard fight of q
substitute for the organization of the
marine corps, by which the corps is tc
consist of 5000 enlisted men and petty
officers, with general officers and staff.
This will increase the marine corps by
1900 men and increase the cost Of its
maintenance 81 500, 900.
