the smelters owned by the Copper
Queen in the latter place will soon
blow-in. Two cars were sent from
the local yards which contained
Stag. This is to be used in start
ing the plant, and will be run
through before any of the ore is
dumped in. In addition to the
Stag, two cars OF silica were ship
ped to the Smelter City, making
five in all that have been sent
from here in a short time. The
longest ore train yet sent from
here to the Douglas smelters was
sent this morning. All this in

Morenci Standard: A strike of
placer gold in Morenci caiion,
about three miles out, has recently
claimed a good deal of attention
from placer workers. The gold
secured is of fine grade. The last
week it has been running pretty
we'll to the pan and those on the
ground are hopeful that closer ac-
quaintance with bed rock will give
them a pretty good thing. Several
were out from Morenci and Clifton
Sunday to take up claims adjacent
to that on which work is now
being done. The location is at
the lower end of the coal basin
Placer mining has been going on
in the old river bed in the neigh
borhood internationally for a mum
Der of wears. At one time there
was much excitement there over
placer working, and on some
claims large results secured from
the gravel.
Prospector: Much excitement
has been occasioned at Pearce over
new discovery that has been
made by Justice w d. Monmonier
at the so-called Red Hill, near
Pearce. From all indications, the
Prospector learns, the new strike |
bids fair to rival the famous ledge |
of the Commonwealth mine, that
has produced over $4,000,000 for
its fortunate owners. Justice Mon
monier recently located some
claims on the Red Hill, which is
about two miles distant from the
Commonwealth, and in sinking a
shaft encountered phenomenally
rich ore at the very grass roots. At
ten feet the ledge showed horn
silver in large quantities and as
says show from 800 ounces of
silver up to several thousand |
ounces and gold values ranging
from 800 upward The extent of
the ledge or quantity of the deposit
is not known as yet, but what has
been uncovered shows a striking
similarity to the Commonwealth
ledge Since the find was made
and miners swarmed
to the scene and location monu-
ments cover the entire hill and for
miles about. Much excitement
prevails, as it is generally believed
by the miners, and all who have
examined the strike, that the same
