ANOTHER BIG DEAL.
Twilight Group Passes to Michigan
 People. Tom Higgins, the Original Owner-Price not Given Out But Ranges around the Million Mark


 On Monday of this week telegrams passed between M. J. Cunningham, of this city and Thos. Higgins. of Los Angeles, whereby one of the largest. if not the largest mining transaction, in the history of the Warren Mining district was consumated
 The sale embraces ten claims and is known as the Twilight Group" and lies south west of the Copper Queen holdings, and one of the claims is just above the residence of Constable Dolye, in Tombstone Canyon
 Negotiations have been carried on for several weeks past between Mir Higgins and MT. Cunningham and it was only until Wednesday night that the deal was actually closed The money for the first payment is now in the Bank of Bisbee and the transfer of the property only awaits the arri. val of prominent capitalists from Houghton, Michigan. who are expect ed in the city on Tuesday of next week.
  will be J. H. Rice, vice president of the National Bank of Houghton: James R Dee, capitalist, and owner of the Elec- tric Light plant of Houghton; Nathan L. Leopold, president of the Manitou Steamship company. Chicago; Norman ". Hair. circuit judge. of Houghton, and NJ J. Cunningham, of this city.
 The Twilight Group connects with the Wolverine and Arizona and also joins the Hendricks, Copper King, Copper Prince and Uncle Sam, owned by the Copper Queen company.
 The new company will be organized with a capital stock of $5,000, 900, 50,- 900 shares at 5000 each Five thousand shares of this stock was ta- ken in Bisbee in less than four hours and we are informed that the first is- sue in Houghton was over subscribed in less time.
 Mir. Cunningham, who brought about this gigantic deal, refused to divulge the price, but The Review has it from another source, that the consideration was between S15,o00 and Sl 900 900. Tho beginning of the active devel- opment work on the Twilight Group means much for Bisbee Several hundred men will ke employed right in the heart of the city. Operations will be commenced on a large scale. and the opening of the Twilight Group means the employment of additional men
 The personnel of the directors Of the new company insures it's stability It was stated yesterday that the men be hind this new company are financial giants and it Is safe to assert that with the Twilight Group in the hands of such men, another Calumet & Arizo na company is in the field

OUR VISITING CRITICS.

The Review has read all that has been written by the visiting cores pondents from the northland and on the whole they have done fairly well considering that they were in a strange land and on mineral ground which may be entirely different from any ever seen before and may prove to be the richest All mineral districts can not be judged alike from similar surface indications; ore that is iden- tical in appearance. may be vastly diff ferent in value. The editor of Iron Ore has addressed a letter to the Re view which claims that we were rath- CT severe in criticising his article on the Blsbee district In his letter he says:
 "I sent you copy of my paper of the 14th of March in which l wrote nasty review of the Bisbee camp. believe you could not have received it else you would not have blundered as did the Duluth paper. which got the article all mixed up in reproducing Is properties located about as they are. Man is not infallible, but I'll put my article against that of any stranger who has come to you. There was no attempt at deception, no desire to do your district any injury. and I think after you carefully read what I have said you will agree that it Is not so bad for a stranger You will l am sure, do me the kindness of saying the Duluth paper mixed up the loca- tions and not me"
 The Review does not object to cor respondents visiting the Warren dis trict and making the closest examina- ton and stating the conditions as they find them. No one here claims that every mining proposition is de signed to meet with the success which has come to Che Copper Queen, or even the Calumet & Arizona. Still the fact is that here we have great mineral zone and field which is in viting to capital seeking to invest in the development of mines. Buying mining stock should be approached by the investor with the same caution that would be exercised in the pur- chase of any other class of stocks or securities. But this is not the case. Men will take greater risks in buying mining stocks than in any other busi- ness proposition, and there is req son for this. The chances of big profits in mines are attractive; many quick fortunes have been made by purchasing mining stocks. As a rule people do not invest any large sums of money in Mining stocks with out first making investigations for themselves; small investors go in more on a gambling basis than as a business investment.
 There may be stocks offered for sale from this district which will not return any profit to investors, but 10 other district can offer better show ing for the money asked for develop ing claims.
 Let the experts and correspond ents come and give them every op- portunity to inform themselves; when they turn down one proposition, they will give praise to others.
 We believe MT Newett, editor of Iron Ore was honest in giving his i'm pression of our district and the prop critics he mentioned; if he was mista- ken on some of the properties it is not surprising, as none are so wise in mining or other pursuits as to hit the bulls eye every time

SOUTH slssEE SUIT.

The South Bisbee law suit. brought by local stockholders against Los An geles directors of the company, still hangs fire in Department 6 of the Su- preme court of Los Angeles. A sec ond amended answer has been filed by the defendants to which a demurrer has been entered by the attorneys for the plaintiff. and it seems that the Los Angeles contingent is having a difficult time to answer the charges made in the complaint of the plaintiff In the event of a decision by the court in favor of the plaintiff. local stock holders would receive BOG more per share for their holdings.

 Before fortnight has passed ac- tive operations on another promising copper property will have been com menced in the Warren Mining district. Tte new company is known as the Bisbee-Queen Development company. and the property comprises twenty four claims. Is located in Gold CuIcb. and lying west towards the Calumet & Cochise group. The distance from Bisbee is three and onehalf miles, southeast.
 Contrary to the usuaI custom. the owners of the property have not asked Michigan men to come in and orga- nize a company, although several fiattering offers were received from that source.
 B. F. Graham. who few weeks ago. successfully handled the E Tigre proposition, is the moving spirit in the Bisbee Queen Development com pany, which insures the new company an active and energetic management. The Bisbee-Queen company will be controlled by Bisbee people and from present indications, will be numbered among the active development com

When he was making up the commit

The speaker. it is learned was given
