Excitement over the recent find west of town seems to have subsiGled, but ac- tive work Is in progress. Like all new discoveries, there was considerable ex- aggaration about this, though the facts are big enough to prove satisfactory, if the ore holds out, says the Journal Miner. A cipher has been dropped off the right hand side of the value of the ore, and Instead of going $260, as re- ported the assay value is s25. Consid- ering the size of the ledge, if the ore boy continues this value is good enough 10 satisfy any one. Messrs Schuerman, Hummer, Sparks, Houl- han. Henry and Trunbull have located three claims and have twelve men at work now developing them. The deep- est point reached Is only seven feet but For this short distance the showing is excellent. The ledge has been traced for sl distance of about five miles and locations made on it. A cut on the s. r. r & r, railroad cut across the ledge but the mineral showing exposed by il seems to have been overlooked. The quartz is gray in color. and it is said that while on the surface the ore is free it turns to sulphurets at a very lD. . tie tepth. The opening up of a big mine on this ledge would prove of grea, benefit to Prescott, as it is only ar houi g walk from town to it.

NEW YORK IN ARIZONA
Mines of Secretary Stoddard Are Pre-.
 pairing for Start.

After spending tw2nty-onc years in digging in the ground and bringing to to this territory from New York nearly H,OOOO00. all of which went for min ing developments In the Big Bug dis triCt, Isaac T. Stoddard, seCro ary of Arizona, is preparing to open his mines on an elaborate scale. Thousands of feet of development work have been done on the properties, but extensive development was necessary, as the mines are copper holdings and surface mining was found unprofitable
 MT. Stoddard built the first shelter put up in Yavapai county-a 90 ton water jacket-which Is still intact, and after some improvements rendering it more modern affcir and increasing the capacity to 90 tons, the furnace has been put in condition to receive ores from the mines. Tho furnace will be used to test the character of the ores. and according to present plans it will not be long until a rcdud ion plant of much larger capacity will be installed Eight ears of coke lave arrived on the grounds, and when certain tunnel is driven n little further to better outline a large deposit of sulphide ore the Sme1 CT will be blown in.

Frank PMmmer come in from the new gold fields on Willow creek yes terday wbh some splendid looking gold rock from the claims in which he is in- terested, says the Courier. The ore shows fine gold all over the surface and came from the ledge four feet beneath the surface. He states that the ledge is eight feet wide. The shaft Is now down seven feet and development work is being pushed A 100 foot shaft will be sunk on the property. The orc brought in by MT Plummer is of an en- tirely different character from the orc brought to this office of which previous mention has been made. As this camp lies near the corporate limits of Pres Cd.t a keen local interest is felt in the development of what is certainly a very promising quartz prospect.

ticans, including Senator Platt, are in- terested in this mining enterprise with Secretary StoGdard, who formerly was prominent figure in New York poli- tics. They have been advancing money for development for years, having a confidence in the sagacity of the secre- tary which now promises to net them handsome returns.
 Tn the Copper Mountain mine, owned by the Stoddard Copper Mining com pany. $350, GOO has been spent for devel- oping. The property is located on the Agua Fria, where there is an abundant flow of water for mining and smelting purposes Mir Stoddard owns the ma jority of the stock in this company. and personally owns the Binghamton group of mines, three miles away, which also gives promise Of opening in to great producer. It underlies a great red gossan capning, hat of al most pure hematite of iron. This is an almost never failing indication of copper base, and tho outcroppings are so immense as to give iise to the belief that the copper body is an immense one. Considerable development has been done on this property.
 The small shelter vas put up in 1883 near the town of S;od1ard. named after the secretary, when western copper miners were in the habit of becoming excited over large surface showings and erecting snelters before they had at tained the sulphde base. Modern rnin- ing has revolutionized things and so fhe shelter has waited for many years before coming into use. The United Verde mine, which has made Senator Clark of Montana and Arizona famous all over the world was opened with the game style of furnace which is on the StOddard properties

THE OCTAVE COUNTRY
Liveliest Mining Region in Southern
 Yavapai.

Octave, Ariz.. Aug. 1.-(Special Cor respondence of The Repubican.)- )-The mines here are the most active in the southern part of Yavapai county. There are at present about 27O men on the pay roll at the Octave miEes, 40 stamps are running night and day and two cocen- tratCrs are constantly working Ire mills are all in first class condition and built of the best material in neat, subs an',al way. The company has a number of nice cottages for the men with families who work in the mines. The bunk houses and boarding house are a credit to the mining company. The men have a fine table set in the boarding house and can boast of better meals than most miners.
 The company store is under the effi- cieut management of Jim Smith. Burt Macy is foreman of the mines and has the record of being one of the best min CTS in Yavapai county. He manages the undergroud work. there being about l50 men digging ore out of the ground. It Is said that the ore Is be- coming richer in mineral as the shafts are being sunk deeper
 Dave Jones. superintendent of the mines, is sinking a shaft west of the main workings. He is trying to catch the same ledge. and has every chance of success. If he succeeds he will strike quite q bonanza. He deserves it. for it was he who induced the capital to come in that later developed this won- derful gold mine. Collins and Jones spent over half a million dollars in de- velopment work before they realized dl- viCends. The mine carries considerable lead as well as gold.
 A short history of the Octaye is very interesting. Charley Genung discov- cred and located the claim originally. but, like most of the old timers, got nd hing for his find. He did not work out the required assessments. and his claim was finally relocated by Jim Vanderberg, Mir. Robinson and Ed Per ry. who held it for time. Mir. Robin son died on the desert near Harqua Hala and passed from memory. Mir. NanderberS was bitten by a tarantula which caused his death in Prescott a short time after the accident. Mir. Per ry afterward married the widow of Mir. Nanderberg, so the property remained under his control for a time He erect ed ten stamp mill and began devei opment work, being confident of hay- ing very rich mine. O. F.. Runner, a lawyer of Missouri, became a partner with the Perrys in the claim. These owners then sold it to C. P. Collins. who is the principal owner now.
 sam Powell and Joe Henwood put in the first Windlass and built the first track in the first shaft iE 1888. These were placed where is now the main working shaft of the mine on the claim known as the Gray Devil There were then six claims in the group. There are now many more. Mr. Henwood some years ago, while working at the Nulture mines. opened box of caps with lighted pipe in his mouth. H. did not live long enough after that to tell the tale
 sam Powell is siill Gn the Hassayam- pa and now owns some of the most val uable property in tho Wickenburg dis Hrict. He has deal now almoct closed which will bring in an English syndl- cate with lot of capital.

stop the work on Big Sandy. In
this they are mistaken. Money

for making the concrete walls are

THE Big FIRE.

The fire of the Grand Hotel at al
early hour Wednesday morning was
one of dire disaster, making n prop
erty loss of $4,000, and converting
into ashes one of the finest
and best furnished hotels in this
region. The family and guests
were aroused shortly after one
o'clock by the Glerwood porter
and forced to make a hurried exit,
while cur citizens were being
awakened from their slum bers by
the blowing of whistles and called
out to extlnguish the rapid spread
ing flames of the fine structure,
only recently dedicated to our
bustllng city.
The origin of the fire is un-
known; however, it is thought by
some to have originated from the
electric light wires, as the fire first
broke out IN the north attic near a
point where the wires entered the
building. The flames were under
considerable headway before the
alarm was given, and consequent
ly it was impossible to fight the
fire to any great advantage. The
Fire Department met with consid-
erable difficulty in laying the hose
line, having at first connected it
at the Lambert corner and after
wards at the Glenwood corner,
from which point the hose was of
sufficient length to reach the fire.
A continual stream was played on
the fire, but to no avail. In the
meantime all attention was di-
rected towards removing furniture
and household goods from the
building.
The loss oe the property and
household goods can no be ascer-
tained with our knowledge of what
goods were recovered, but it Is
supposed the amount will exceed
$40, 600, partly insured. One poll
cy of S5, 200 on the building, ia

of London, represented by II. r.

represented the Standard os
Wheeling, w. Va, in policies o.:

latter was also insured in the

three months ago.

build the Grand" at the same
location. He will reside III the
