 Make Their Report
DIAMOND DRILL WORK TO BE DIS CONTINUED ON THE
 PROPERTY.
Development Work in Future To Be Confined to Following Some of Nu- merous Leaders-supt. Turner Con- nended for Methods Used.
Especial to Review.)


 Calumet, Mich, July 29.-The re port of the committee appointed by the directors of the Higgins Dev. Co. to inquire into the condition at the prop erty a; Bisbee and report on the most feasible plan for future development work. was made public here today. The report says:
 To the Board of Directors of the Hig-
 gins Development Co.,:
 Having convened at Bisbee, Ariz., this 14th day of July. 1904. after exam ming into the condition of the devel- opment work and the future prospects of this work, beg to present our con clusions as follows:
 l. Work with the diamond drill is To be discontinued at once.
 Reasons-The cores of holes No. ? and 3, and also Nc l, starting from bottom of shaft prove 10 our satisfac- tion that the porphyry which under lies the limestone, and at certain places has broken through the latter, is the true bed rock of the copper bearing strata, that no ore bodies can well be expected in the porphyry. On close examination of the cores no indications of metallization are met with. On the plane of contact We find only such al iteration as is due to the high temper ature of the molten porphyry upon the limestone; namely, a change of tex ture and the forming of lime silicates. We find also that the porphyry itself has undergone an alteration in the chemical absorption of water, the fel- spar becomes chalky and a green hy- drous silicate takes the place of the original black hornblende. PyrIte is present in this changed porphyry, but there is no evidence of copper. Hence, the diamond drill has done for the stockholders valuable service in demonstrating that We can not look for ore bodies in the depth: tor the drill saved the much more expensive sinking of the shaft. Having accom- plished it's task the drill will be retir- ed in all propriety. This committee do not wish it understood that in their opinion no ore bodies can exist below Or within the porphyry, but that in their judgment the probability is too small to warrant expenditure of mon ey in settling the point.
 ?. Work should, for the present, De restricted to following some of the numerous leaders.
 Reason (a)-Because this IS he only feasible method. as demonstrated in the Copper Queen and Calume. & Ari- ~pna. Leaders are softer mineral bodies either of spar or of clay or iron ochre CT manganese. These leaders are evidence of a more recent meta morphic action. or chemical action, by means of which the small particles of valuable mineral present it. tba whole work, become punched )r concenirat- ed, and thus are made capable of u:i;i- zation- In places where this action has become most intense as in caves, Assures or cavities, the so-called ere bodies are formed. Now, if such lead CTS were absent on the various claims

of the Higgins. the property would have to be condemned right out. Fer it were worse than hunting for needle in hay stack.
 But this is not the case. We have noticed very promising leaders, which your able manager, MT. Scott Turner. has layed open in the winzes, ana more particularly at a quite recent time on the south slope of the main ridge CD the Backbone claim. Here very strong iron and manganese out crops indicate extensive metamorpho- sis of the rock. Here in the side of the steep cliff entry is won, by means of an adit. We found strong clac- spar vein with fine showing of copper, carbonate and copper glance. The form of occurrence is exactly similar with the occurrences in the Copper Queen and Calumet & Arizona. In this adit it will be shown whether there are ore bodies in the Higgins or not. The Uncle Sam claim of the Copper Queen is quite near in the gulch, and here very valuable stoPes have been worked by the Queen. This pldtt lo dUOuA lWO and fifty feet above the winZe on the north slope of the ridge. There is plenty of room for the development of ore bodies which would be worked by adits and with a much dryer country than in the deep workings of the Queen and c. & A.
 It seems to us, therefore. that the work should go from here towards the leader shown in the winze. It also seems to us that the prospects are not unfavorable at the present. but rather the other way.
 When MT. Turner sent a sample of the soft iron rock at the time of the annual meeting, he erred, pardonably, in not wanting to raise false hopes. The stuff sent did not contain cop per, but we now find that the whole of those forty feet of soft stuff consti- tutes low grade ore of the carbonate type.
 Your committee desires a. this point to express their entire satisfaction with Mir. Turner's judgmen: and manage ment.

SONORA PROPERTY TRIBUTARY TO DOUGLAS BEING ExPto7-
 ED ON BIG SCALE.
Superintendent Says Shipment Viii Be Made to Douglas Smelt:rs in the Near Future-increase Prcpos- ed For Reduction Plant.
(Special CorrespondenceD

Dotglas, July 2S.-Superintenaent J. L. Obermiller came to the ci'y yes terday from the Roy mine on hur' ried visit occasioned by an unexpect- ed business call Seen at the Roy ho- tel by a reporter. he stated that every fly at the mining property. A car ol ore is now ready to go out to raii just as soon as the pack trains get in physical condition to travel. This will be a very short time. the recent rains having made an abundance of feed upon which the burros are rapid ly fattening. Besides the car of ore sacked, the Roy has healthy dump and plenty of ore in its workings. Shipments will accordingly be regular after the pack trains resume. Asked if the mine would not soon transfer its business from the Fl Paso reduction out of Sonoro, has so far been prin- Ter said that is probable that in due get the Roy ores.
 Roy ore, which is some of ;be richest in silver and gold hat comes out of Sonora, has so fa- ber priu- cipally mined from a 210 foot tunnel. This tunnel is at the 2xt-eIIe end of the new main workings now being driven, and which is to gc in ia00 feet. It is now in 200 feet nf ;3e way and being crowGsd steae'ly ahead. Big things are expected from it. Four important ore shoots will be cut by the work. The main body of ore at the further end of the tunnel 1.400 feet in, will be caught at a depth of 500 feet, the tunnel making this important gain from the surface
 The property now has 10-toE mill which has been doing very satisfact- ory work to date but will not be equal to the demands that the new ore com ing in will create. Beside increase in the capacity of the mill it is also very likely that a plant will be added for the further treatment of the concen- trates. At present the company IS concentrating only it's low grade ores, The high grade product is shipped direct. The Roy, which is eight miles from the Tigre, is one of the oldest mines in the section. It is owned by a close corporation and has no stock on the market. The work now in pro- gres is with good reason expected 10 show it 10 be a great property.

THE SHANNON.

Shannon's output so far this month has shown an improvement over that of last year. and the prospect now is that the July production will exceed 100000 pounds of copper. The Company has purchased the s60.00 of bonds which it is to retire Sept. l, and paid for them. This has been done, understand, without the crea- tion of any floating debt. It reduces cmpanys outstanding bonds to s4s0,- 900. Unless shannon was earning a fair profit on operations it could not liquidate obligation in this manner Boston Commercial.

VIII Go into Winter Quarters
With Worlds Marks.
SPEED EXHIBITIONS.
70 Appear on the Tracks in
Oklahoma and Texas.
Record Made by Major DeImar
Now First Compiled.

Memphis, Tenn, Nov. 11.-With the
exception of his engagements in St.
Louis, to be followed by exhibitions of
speed on tracks at Oklahoma City, Dali
las and New Orleans, Dan Patch, the
unbeaten pacing king has made his last
attempts of this season to reduce the
pacing figures. The brown son of Joe
Patchen will go into winter quarters
with. all the worlds records to his
credit, just as he did a year ago. By
recently pacing a mile to sulky in 1:56
fiat, Dan Patch broke his own worlds
record for such a performance and in
cidentally set new figures which stand
today as the fastest. mile ever negotia-
ted by a horse in harness.
The record which the fastest of many
held by Dan Patch, is not regarded
with any more Importance than is the
half mile mark of :56 made over the
local track in 1908 or any other of the
wonderful flights against time which
marked his appearance each season
The three choicest records sought for
by horsemen are held by Dan Patch,
and az there are some horsemen who
imagine that it will be many seasons
before Dan Patch or any other PAGER
lowers the time, the following perform
anceS indicate what may prove to be
figures that will last through several
harness seasons to come. They are all
held by Dan Patch and were made over
the local course, with pacemaker in
front, but without aid OF the regulation
wind shield:
Mile pacing record to sulky, 1:56.
Mile pacing record to wagon, 1:57H.
Half mile record to sulky, SO.
Dan Patch finished his 1903 season.
completing eleven miles on various
tracks, from Minneapolis to Readeville,
and from Cleveland to Memphis, ira
versing the middle part of the continent
twice while the average time per mile
was 1853 Ali. Five times during last
seasons wonderful trials did Dan
Patch step under the two minute mark,
finally establishing his then existing
worlds record Of 1:55A at Memphis.
This season he has finished only one
mile in less than two minutes.

FORTUNE TO BET on Lou.
Trainer of the Famous 1rotter Makes
a Statement.


Memphis, Tenn, Nov. lit can
get $4,000 backing in each of half a
dozen cities, making 100000 in all,
that Lou Dillon can beat Major Del
mar, same conditions to govern that
obtained during the Memphis gold cup
race" said Willard Sanders, Lou Dill
Ions trainer, who remains here wait
ing for a fair chance for Lou to at
tack Major Delmar's mile mark of
2:01 u, unaided by shield or runner in
front.
Sanders does not wish it understood
that he is issuing a def. On the con-
trary, he states that he has taken his
defeat gracefully, but in face of so
many arguments that the mare has
lost all of the great speed which
marked her time trials and her de-
feat of Major Delmar in 1903, he
makes the statement that the enor-
nous sum could be raised in six diff
-ferent cities in order to prove that
public confidence in the trotting queen
is mistaken. .'- "a
Tin San Francisco believe I know
the men that would back the mare for
the entire amount themselves" said
Sanders. I'm Cleveland, Chicago,
Memphis and st. Louis I know that
LOUIS admirers are legion, and that
they generally appreciate the fact that
horse not IA condition was defeated
the day that Major Delmar won his
Walkover.''
Sanders still insists that if Major
Delmar's owners wanted to attack the
proper mile mark this year that they
might have sent Ma jor Delmar against
Lou Dillon'S mark of 1858 II, which
today is the fastest mile ever trotted
by a horse in harness.

WALLER BACK IN AMERICA.
Cyclist Returns to New York From
London to Ride in Six Day Race.


Cyclist Returns to New York From
London to Ride in Six Day Race.
Frank Waller, the veteran cyclist,
after having been reported dead, for
some time without contradiction on
his part, has reached New York from
London. The record holder with
Charles w. Miller in the six day race is
now a man of As years He went
through the old cycle district, finding
automobile stores, on every hand, but
the same crowd of friends employed in
the new field.
Waller comes to America to ride in
the six day race in December. and
wants to team with Otto Maya, If pos
sible. He will see Maya at Vailsburg
today.
Il am getting DID," said Waller to a
reporter for the World, but L have a
race in me yet, and / guess they need
me to pull that record down, for they
are coming 300 miles short of the fig
ures pun up by me and Charlie Miller.
/ can set the pace, all right, and Iguess
will make them climb all the way
from the start"
Waller said that he did not know
how the report spread that he had kill
ed himself. He has been working for
years in the automobile motor bust
ness of A. A. Chase, the English pace
follower, who was seen in this country
years ago. After the six day bicycle
race Waller will enter the automobile
field in this country.
Waller brought with him his Oldest
son and has one left, in London, two
of his children having died since he
started On his trip around the world.
On that trip Waller became broke"
in California, but finally worked his
way to Australia, where he was again
financially stranded. He worked his
family, and has been doing well there.

YOST HAS A SICK LIST.
For FIRST Time Before a Big Game
Michigan Is Handicapped.

Ann Arbor, Mich. Nov. 11.-For the
first time in four years Coach .Yost can
buthfully complain of a hospital list
two days before a big game. Shuttle
and LOngman both have broken noses.
Norcross and Tom Hammond are both
1mping around with bandaged ankles
and big Joe Curtiss is in no fit physical
condition to play the hardest game of
his life on Saturday.
Yost cannot stop talking about the
wonderful attack of the Chicago
eleven.
"Chfcago has the fastest. strongest
and most varied attack that I have
ever had to train a team to Withstand
and there is no telling what the Ma
room backs Will do to our line and
ends" is Yost's comment. ITO de-
velop two powerful defensive ends to
complete Michigan's team this year is
as hard task as 1 have ever had.
like Stuart for his punting and his
nervy tackIng; Black is a strong
ground gamer, but-well, I'd like to
have a Redden and a Carver to start
in at the extremities on November II"
The coach is certainly worried. His
talks to the team every night indicate
this and he feels if he can only put
to rout that sneaking feeling of con-
fidence, which has such a hold on
every member of the squad, all will be
well.
The students all have a feeling that
the machine will get together again
on Saturday next and that Heston,
Hammond and Longman will be ire
sistible. The-back field is a strong
combination and with little Norcross
to direct the plays ought to make
some dent in Chicago's reported weak
defense. AS one of the players said:
IF Texas can march nearly the length
of the field through Chicago's line,
our strong offense ought to be able to
tear things up little.''
The sale of seats at this early date
is unprecedented in Michigan football
annals and everything indicates that
the entire seating capacity at Ferry
field will be taxed to its utmost on
Saturday.

Another Tremendous Well

is A 100000 GASSER.
The Product LIS Declared to Be
Practically IneXhaustible.
Strongest Well Found in This
District for Years.

lola, Kan, Nov. ia we'll has been
brought in on the Northrup place
about two miles north of town, which
measures about 100000 cubic feet.
This is the strongest well that has been
brought in in this field for five years.
and indicates that the new gas district
north of lola is as strong as any in the
lola field. The number of strong wells
which have been found in this north
district have made a tremendous addi-
ton to Iola's practically inexhaustible
gas field, and probably will give a
great impetus to bringing manufactur-
ing industries here.
The we'll was measured by Wallis
Ewing of the lola Gas company, and
pronounced to be in the neighborhood
of 100000 cubic feet. 1t was impos-
sible to take the rock pressure of the
we'll. as the tubing is not yet in.
The development of this new district
has been the best news lola has had
for a long time. and makes the future
of the town doubly sure.

Harvey Parker to Retire.

New York, Nov. 11.-Harvey Parker,
the champion weller weight wrestler.
intends to retire after the present sea-
son. Like Jeffries, he has had a. hard
time finding opponents and as a result
has grown tired of it. One of the few
matches he will take part in this year
will be that of next Tuesday night,
when he meets alex" Swanson in a
bout to q finish. If Parker wins he
will wrestle once more and that against
the winner of the proposed match be
tween George Bothner, the light weight
champion and Eugene Tremblay, the
champion of Canada. Parker and
Swanson will meet at catch weights.
one of the conditions of the match is
that if neither wrestler can gain n fall
within a stipulated period of time the
referee must give a decision. This is
a new idea. In wrestling.
