Adverse Report.

Col John Biddle, the Engineer Commits
sioner, has notified his colleagues that there
does not seem to be any good reason for
granting the request of the Stumph Bed
ding Company to cement the parking space
in front of it's building on Massachusetts,
avenue near It'll street. Col. Biddle thinks
the present sidewalks, including the one ad-
jacent to the show windows, afford ample
means of access and he thinks the parking
should be kept intact

The price of the Treasury stock of
the Company will continue at IS. so

that date the price will be $40 share
par. Make checks payable to the
order of the company and send to p

RECENT EVENTS HAVE DEMONSTRATED
TWO THINGS:
l. Copper is produced at a less cost on the Verde
Copper Belt than anywhere else in the world
In suit recently tried In New York to which
PROFESSOR Treadwell and Senator Clark were par
ties. and in which the affairs Of the United Verde
Copper Company were in issue, 1t was proved by
Inc books OF the company and the sworn testimony
OF the bookkeepers that the United Verde Company
produces copper at Of three and a half
cents pound, without counting the gold and silver
values which reduces the cost to a still lower
figure.
1t is doubtful II copper is produced anywhere
outside Of the Verde Copper Belt for less than
twice that cost
2 The George A. Treadwell Mining Company
mas more and better ccITer-producing property
the Verde Copper Belt than any other mining Of
ganzation.
Since the recent strike in the Clf-one OF the
Ireadwell mtnes-this is demonstrat ted fact.
The surface showngs the Clin have always
been recognized as better than those on the United
verde, and the vein at the depth Of the present
workings is than four times the width Of the
United Verde vein at the same depth, while the
ore carries at least equal values in copper gold
and silver.
The Cliff, however, is only one Of many mines on
the Verde Copper Belt owned by the George A.
1readwell Mining Company. The Brookshire
Badger Pastfme, Spoke and Stonewall. Green
Monster and Iron Queen all give promise of max
ing good run against both the Cliff and the
United Verde for supremacy.
Taken altogether, the Treadwell Mining Company
has a property magnificent in extent and of unsur
passed value.
