solidated Copper Company; is ex-
pected in Phoenix next week IN his
new $4,000 automobile, which he
will drive from la Cananea to
San Francisco. He will come via
Tucson and will 60 from this city
to Yuma through the Buckeye
country. He will also touch at
Los Angeles en- route. This will
be the greatest desert auto trip
ever attempted. Col. Greene's auto
was imported from Paris and will
stand all sorts of rough business.
He received it this week by way OF
Ell Paso.-Enterprise.
The Republican a week ago an
nounced the conviction and SEN
tence of l. L. Qualey, formerly
connected with the Spenazuma
mining fraud which was exposed
by Governor Murphy about four
years ago. Qualey's latest fraud
was in connection with the So
called Horse Shoe Mining Com
pany, which had no mine at all.
He was not sent to Sing Sing upon
his conviction, but was held in the
Tombs as a witness against Harry
Summerfeld, one of the officers of
the company. He admitted that
he, Summerfeld, and others had
swindled various people out of more
than 100000. He not only made
an admission of all the frauds that
had been charged against him, but
he went into details and showed
how he and other confederates had
committed them so long without
detection.-Republican.

cate of lead and iron found near

George w. Middleton, the genial
and successful mining man, has re-
Gently returned from the money
centers of the East, where the col
lapse of a vast lot of wind stocks
has caused many an investor to
resolve to venture money in the
more substantial field of mining.
Mr. Middleton believes that this
will be the effect of the collapse of
so much of thai wind stock.-Cou
rier.
There are now in the office of
the Surveyor General 32O applica-
tlons for mining patents. That is
regarded as an evidence of faith in
the mineral resources of the Terri /
tory. A Aman does not want to 90 /
to the expense of patenting a pros
:pect, or even mine, unless he be-
lieves that there is something in
1T. The office is in better shape
than ever now for handling the
business which comes into it. There
has been a Encouragement of the
furniture with the object of secur-
ing more room, and within a few
days there will be additional help. |

Work on the Eastern Sugar Com
pany's sugar beet factory at Glen
dale has been completed, so far as
the steel work goes, and all is now
in readiness for letting of the con-
tracts for the brick work, and this
will probably be done this week. |
The delay is caused by a slight
misunderstanding arising between
the construction company and the
Santa Fe railroad. The construc-
ton company is of the opinion |
that its original agreement with
the railroad company provided for
the delivery of freight on the spur,
when at the present time the cars
are left on the siding. AS soon as
the dispute is settled, brick CON
tracts will be let and the work will
be rushed at rapid rate.-Ga-
zette.
We understand that sale of the
Infallible and Star Spangled Ban
ner mines, Stockton Hill, has been
made to w. S. Fletcher, of Pinal
county. Just as soon as the title
to the properties is untangled the
money will be paid over. At
present the title to the mines is
vested in the estates of the late J. |
