 Prescott Prospect: The Black Hill Copper company has quit showing visitors their promising surface indi- cations, croppings, etc, instead are pointing to their dump and some very good ore. Monday at depth of 40 feet, promising sulphate ore was struck-the first that has been en- countered yet on the group. A stock holder in the company sent piece of this rock to a Prescott assayer and re- ceived in return report of 37 per cent copper. While there is some d )ubt of the ability of of any one to honestly sample any proposition in which he is interested financially, it must be admitted as very favor. able indication when such result can be had by any method The mere fact that such a high grade ore is taken out of the shaft, augurs well for stock holders

 Arizona Blade: Messrs. Chittendon and Mellor, who visited the Saddle mountain district last week, report considerable activity in the coaltields. The diamond drill being hauled in from the railroad is expected to reach the camp this week. The old road from the railroad to the coaltields is in very bad condition, having been abandoned for years, aud it has to be repaired ahead of the teams.
 Arizona Blade: Messrs. Robne and Cooper, came down from Mineral Hill Tuesday to perfect the details of their bond aud lease on the Golden Culver group of lead properties, which was done to the satisfaction of all con- cerned and they returned Thursday to resume operations. There will be no further hitches in this deal and work will continue steadily from this time on.
 Arizona Blade: Mr. Frank Brownell and Charles A. Attix were in from the CasaGrande mining district this week, on mining business. MT. Brownell is a pioneer of that district and the chief owner of the Chief and Century group of mines. This is valuable group and would have been heard from long ago, but for the fact that MT. Brownell's hands were tied by a mix.up in the Walker estate. He will soon have the matter cleared up now and will then begin active oper- ations on his mines.
 Jerome Reporter: Karl Kurtz is in from the Monte Cristo mine, located ten miles from Kirkland station, where he has been at work for several months past. The Monte Cristo MT. Kurtz says, is developed by twelve hundred feet of work, and has vein of ore from eighteen inches to two feet wide which gives an assay value of S24 per ton gold. MT. Kurtz, back ed by eastern capital, has bonded the Cosmos group of three claims for s50,000. The Cosmos group adjoins the Monte Cristo, has l50 feet of dev- elopment work, vein from four to five feet wide of a character of ore similar to that of the Monte Cristo.
 Mohave Miner: Work has beer commenced on the A. & U. exten sion north from Chloride and it i: thought it will be continued until the Colorado river is reached. Camps have already been established aud men are arriving daily to work on tht grade. The company is advertising for rockmen. The completion of thi: line of road to connection with the Oregon Short line would be oi great benefit to Mohave county and Southern Nevada.

WI Is STILL HOPEFUL.
Looks For More Dispatches From
Ministers in Pekin.

Washington, d. c., July 22.-Minister
WI said tonight that he had had not a
word from his country today. He con-
tinues extremely optimistic of the
safety of the legationers in Pekin and
hopes that the dispatch from Minister
Conger received here Friday is but the
precursor of more detailed information
OF still brighter character from the
Chinese camp.
Many of his callers today INQUIRED
of him about the report that China
had asked the United States govern
ment to offer its good offices for his
country in the present crisis, but he
declined positively to make any state
ment on the subject.
When Secretary Hay received the
Conger diSpa tch on Friday he prompt-
ly telegraphed the fact to the Amer
lean ambassadors and ministers abroad
coupling it with instructions to Law if

Which they are accredited, and to urge
upon them the necessity for co-opera-

celved at the state department in re-
spouse TO the secretary's dispatch. but
they are withheld from publication for
the present.
The officials here will abate none of
the efforts now making to obtain more
definite news and to push forward the
relief column on its way to the Chi

Delay in Relief Is Cause


A particularly deplorable effect of .r.
reasoning of the European COVE
ments on this point, in the estimaA .r
Of our government, is the abandonment
of the idea that there is particular need
for haste and for taking even desperate
chances IN the. effort TO get the inter-
national relief column through to
Pekin.
1t is true that the latest advices from
Taku indicate that whereas it was orig
inally estimated by the foreign COM
manderS that the expedition could not
be started before Aug. 10, it is now re-
garded by them as possible to make a
beginning about the first of August
But the military experts here, who have
been closely scanning all the reports
from Tien Tsin that appear to be
worthy of credit. feel that even now
the way is open to Pekin. and that the
march should begin with the force at
present on the Pei Ho, leaving the
powers to bring up reinforcements to
reopen the base, should the first expe-
dition be cut off.
According to the latest official reports
the country around Tien Tsin is clear
of hostile Chinese. The flower of the
Chinese army in that section has been
defeated at. Tien Tsin, and the army
experts calculate that it's power is 50
broken that that particular army never
can be reorganiZed in season to offer
formidable resistance. So they agree
that the time is ripe for a stroke of bold
generalship. such. for instance, as

DOUBTS coNGER MESSAGE.
". N. Lovatt Thinks Hart Sent Last
Word

st. Paul. Mimi. July 22.-W. n. Low
att. who spent forty years in the Gus
toms service in China, is in this CITY.
In an interview today Mr. Lovatt de-
clared his absolute disbelief in the au-
thenticity of the telegram received at
Washington signed by Minister Con-
ger
He believes that the last authentic in
formation from any of the legationers
was the message from the secretary of
the German legation. countersigned by
Sir Robert Hart and dated June IS. Mr.
LOVatt says that Sir Robert Hart was
favOrite with the Chinese. and the
fact that no later message has come
from him means that every foreigner in
Pekin has been killed, for if any one
could get a message out of Pekin it
would be Sir Robert Hart.
Mr.. Lovatt also discredits the story
that the legatiOners found refuge be-
hind the palace walls.
OF the general situation Mr. Lovatt
says all will depend on the attitude of
Ii Hung Chang, who has heretofore
been friendly, and will probably con-
tinue so.
