GROOM CREEK ITEMS.
The Journal Miners Regular Cores pondent Tells of The Progress Be- ing Made in This Rich
 District.

Groom Creek, Ariz., Feb. Is. - Up here at the Gold Basis mill we have still two feet of snow, and around Spruce mountain over three feet, and the beauty of it is the ground being warm underneath the snow it is all soaking down and in a few days the water will be running on bed rock that will give plenty of water for mill purposes.
 Over at the Empire they expect to start their other five stamps in few days. It will not only help their revenue but give more employment to miners. wish to state they will sink to the 800 foot instead of 400 foot level.
 James O'Connell quit his position at the Home Run and will commence to do development work on his property, the north extension of the Home Run He is also having 9 or 30 tons of ore run through at the Gold Basis mill-
 At the Home Run mine Mir. Moni- han is sending his shaft down at lively rate, sinking 3 feet every A hours, and expects to be at the 1OO foot level by the 25th. They are also raising the collar of the shaft 20 feet to make it on a level with the mill site Their shaft house will be 64 feet long and they are putting 1t up in Is foot sections. In looking over his ore I picked up several small pieces that you could see free golsi sprinkled through it. They say the mine is improving in value rght along.
 Thos. Nolan and son, from Denver. Colorado, is visiting Groom creek Mir. Nolan will only stop few days, but his son Tom will stay in camp. They have some very good mines m the King Kelly and Wakefield The Empire mill is on the King Kelly, It is patented ground and they are also going to have the Excelsior pa tented as there has been work done on it to justify it.
 We have also other new corners Tn Messrs Mackin and Meeks, from Crip- ple creek, Colorado. They are inter ested in the WebfOOt mine, which Is the west extension of the Silver King. They are making preparations to do extensive development work Tn the way of sinking. These gentlemen are from Colorado, and they don't do the gophering act like some companies do but will go down on their property.

count of the snow and muddy roads, has not ventured out to the mine yet, but expects to do so within few days.
 A telegram from New York says that it appears that the insiders in both Amalgamated Copper and Ameri- can Smelling companies have been putting the price of these securities down, simply for the purpose of fore ing out public holders and buying 1t cheaper themselves. It is now re- ported that the resignation of Leon ard Lewisohn from the directory of the American Smelling company is to be withdrawn. As far as the resig nation of H. H. Rogers is concerned, that may stand, but a representative of Mir. Rogers will be elected to take his place. The deal between the Guggenheims and the American Smelling company will proba- bly, be carried out success fully, although it appears upon the surface that the American Smelling company acquires the Guggenheim plants. The fact is that the Guggen- helms have secured control of the smelling company. The deal seems to have been mainly a stock market movement, which will perhaps come to the surface before many days.

The fore most among this class of papers is the Journal -Miner.-Jerome News.
 The Journal-Miner pleads guilty to the above charge. so far as the News is concerned. The items swiped from it has been done with deliberate in tent, too, and for the following req. sons: The News had become such a pirate of news from the Journal. Miners columns, without credit, that it was decided to serve it in the same manner. The Journal Miner is always pleased to give credit to all papers which treat it with the same courtesy
