MAYER AND BIG BUG
Things Happening Every Day in That
 Mining Field.

Mayer and vicinity, including the Big Bug mining district nearby, is one of the liveliest camps in the territory. While no figures are at hand to show the output of precious metals in that section as compared to Bisbee or other large places where there are large but few developed mines, it is altogether probable that in the country surround ing Mayer there is a greater number of separate mining enterprises than in a region of equal extent in the southwest. So numerous are these properties in fact that changes of ownership occur almost without comment except by the parties interested and new development work is started of which the public learns little till it sees the men at work
 Among the recent changes in owner ship are a number of purchases by the c. A. Treadwell company, some of which have been mentioned and some have not. An important acquisition is the Boggs mine and shelter. an old property that in its day was a good producer. The old Boggs shaft has been cleaned out and a new hoist or dered for it. The Boggs mine adjoins the Iron Queen. which is expected to furnish much of the ore for the new smelter at Mayer. This company has also bought the Blackberry mine and ordered a new hoist for it. The re- cent purchases which were made from the Commercial company include the water works and pipe line for Mayer and in fact all the Commercial com pany's holdings in that section.
 D. N Jenkyns of Mayer is about to start work on his Cinderella group O.. gold mines on Mineral creek, two and a half miles southeast from the Blue Bell, and a mile and a half from the line of the P. & E. railroad, says the Prescott Prospect. This is a ledge that has been overlooked by prospectors for several years. Years ago Jeff Davis To- cated it and broke into the croppings only, and sent fifty tons of ore to Ash Fork by wagon, and thence to some eastern shelter. He got returns of S1O0 a ton for the ore, but the charges for freight and treatment ate it all up so he abandoned it. Jenkyns came across it, and getting a good assay from the surface croppings, he located q group there, which he now thinks to be q bonanza, which it is very likely to become ii developed.
 Dr. T. H. Ensor of Omaha. one of the directors in the Brooklyn Mining and Milling company, arrived in Prescott last week and will give his personal at tentiOn to this property for the next few weeks. The property of the Brook lyn Mining and Milling company is sit hated one mile from Cherry station, on the P. & E. railroad. and. about two miles from Val Verde shelter. The nearest. neighbors are the Iron King, which lays south about half mile. and the El Capitan west about the same distance. The Prospect is in- formed that a sample taken from four tons of concentrates extracted from twenty-five tons of ore ran $454 to the ton. besides giving S6 on the plates. Dr. EnsOr will in the near future have 100 tons treated at the Val Verde smel- ter and says if results are satisfactory that the Brooklyn will furnish 200 tons a month without any trouble

in the company and had remitted the money to Stegner. In the correspon- Gence which went through the mails it was claimed that the company owned several mining properties in the coun- ties of Yuma and Mohave and the names of the properties were given It turned out though that only one of the claims was actually owned by the company.
 It is further charged that Stegner sent letters to the Richmonds in which he made this statement: We have started shipping copper and will soon be shipping oil, when he knew, says the indictment, that the property was not producing. Other letters giving glowing reports about the conditions in this territory were written by Stegner from time to time
 The following concerning Stegner's case was received by Associated Press from Kansas City last night:
 Theodore Stegner, indicted last Monday on a charge of using the mails to defraud in the sale of Arizona cop per mines, was arraigned in the United States district court today and pleaded not guilty. The case was continued until April at the request of the defend ant to give him an opportunity to bring witnesses from Arizona. Steg- ner is q well known mining broker, charged in the indictment with mis- representing mining property"

AN ARIZONA PROMOTER
He Made An Improper Use of the
 Mails.

Theodore Stegner, an Arizona min ing promoter, has been indicted by the federal grand jury at Kansas City for a fraudulent use of the mails. His ar rest and indictment is the result of an investigation conducted in this ter ritory by Special Post Office Inspector F.. l.. Mckee.
 It does not appear that he secured great deal of money by the fraud. but the fact that he committed a fraud seems to be pretty well established. Complaint had been made against him by two brothers by the name of Rich mond, one of them professor at William Jewell college in Missouri and the other a school teacher in Massa chusetts. They had invested $200 in the Pittsburg Mining and Reduction company at the instance of Stegner. They had also sold $5,OO0 worth of stock

Of the next few months. At the "Sil- yer Thread the shaft is to be made four compartment, the same size as the new shaft, and another set of large pumps installed there. At the Tran quillty new engine is to be added to the shaft. The company intends to use oil as the principal fuel and the force of men of the Gillot-Herzog Manufac- turing company, who put up the still hoist at the new shaft and recently have completed work in the Douglas smelters, have returned here and will begin work erecting a large steel oil tank as soon as the material arrives, which was shipped from Minneapolis on the 25th of last month
 w. T. Johnson, who recently bonded the Benton Walker group of claims, has removed his outfit here from the Caleno mountains, and were busily engaged in making camp today and will put force of men at work in the morning. The shaft on the property which is only down twenty feet shows up a remarkably strong ledge of man. ganese and lead ore carrying consider able horn silver. Some of it assayed as high as $2,000 to the ton. A carload of ore has already been taken out and is sacked awaiting shipment. The bond is for a years time and for $50, 900. Johnston to do at once 200 feet of work on the property and ii he fails to stop work at any time for thirty days, he forfeits his bond. MT. Johnston left this morning for Illinois but expects to return in a few weeks. There are d number of other parties at work in the Ajax district doing development work on their claims. some of which are showing up in good shape. There are now some eighteen or twenty men camped out there at present and with the addition of the force put to work by Johnston will make quite a little camp. The hills in this vicinity have all been located and the report of the blast of the eXpectant prospector do- ing his necessary ten feet of work. can be heard from all sides.
 Richard Bretherton and Gus Mon roe, formerly of Bisbee. have located several claims in the vicinity of the Three Brothers" hills and are taking out some first class ore and the pros poets promise to return to their own CTS a neat little sum should the present ledge continue.
