Mining Sale at
 Morenci, Arizona
SANTA ROSA MINING COMPLAINTS PROPERTY PURCHASED BY
 CLIFTON MEM

4 sale of much importance this week was that of controlling interest in the Santa Rosa Mining company ny Joe Tanner to J. L. Thompson of Clifton, says the Standard. Mr. Thopapson is TOW in charge of the property. The amount of money in volved in the deal is not known. That t will turn out to he big thing for the Morenci camp there is no doubt. The property will unouestionably get plenty Of capital behind it and be made the great mine that all familiar with it are confident it has the mate rial for. Mir. Thompson has not yet made public any definite line of action hat he will follow with reference 10 the property. With the passing of the Santa Rosa from the market the Home Copper company property becomes the last that is open in the camp for the engagement of large capital with assurance of heavy returns in re sponse to systematic development.

Equipment Ordered
 FOR THE
 AISacia Property
COMPLETE PLANT READY WITH
 IN ABOUT SIXTY DAYS.
C. F. Wren of This City Just Returned from Mine and Made Arrangements for Installing Complete Equipment for Operating Mine on Scale by No Means Meager.

Charles F. Wren, president of the Wren-Herman company, assayers and chemists, Bisbee, has recently re- is located in Sonora. about thlity miles east of Cananea, and in which he Is largely interested, being one of the principal officials of the company. While at the mine MT. Wren made ar engagements for the installation, within he next sixty days, of complete de selopment plant, the machinery for which has now been ordered and is expected on the ground shortly.
 The property, says M-. Wren, gives every promise Of becoming big pro- ducer of both copper and silver. an6 because of the excellent showing made by the development work already done, the company feels warranted in making preparations for turning out regular production. IL was with this end in view that the company ordered complete equipment of machinery Or the mine. The machinery that will be installed consists of hoists and engines, as well as adequate equip ment for doing extensive work on the property.
 A shaft eighty feet in depth has been sunk, and in the workings some very rich silver and copper bearing mineral has been extracted. For some time the company has been plan ming to make shipments of ore, and arrangements will shortly be complet- cd so that shipments can be con- meEced about June 1st. In the shaft and underground workings, consisting Of two drifts, ore bodies have been opened up that are extensive enough o warrant the company h preparing for doing mining on quite a large scale.
 Mineral taken from the workings have been assayed, and the result Of the assay proved the ore to carry eighty ounces Of silver and 20 per cent copper. The ore selected fer the assay, if anything. ran considerably less in silver and copper values than the average ore being taken from the workings, and after the company has opened up additional ground in the mine, the company will be in posi- ton to. commence shipping mineral that will go much better in values II will be about three months time be- fore the company will be operating to its fullest extent with the new ma chinery ordered. and by that time re suits will have been attained that will be most pleasing to the stockholders of this company.

United States
 STANDS
 Pre-eminent
AS THE MINERAL PRODUCER OF
 THE WORLD.
Some Significant Facts Relating 10 Production of Minerals in This country-shaw Says Manufacturing Interests Would DwindIe Into in- sionificance but for the Mines.

Irwin Mahcn, writing for the New York Commercial Mining Review, in the following presents many interest ing and significant facts relating to the production of minerals in the United States:
 In this. the eawn of the twentieth century. the United States stands pre- eminent as the mineral producer of the world. The production of more than s1.OO0 GOO, ,Ooo of mineral wealth n {. single year means a vast deal to he business of the country, particular ly- when it is all entirely new wealth, with absolutely nothing of a fictitious character about it.
 The dividends paid by the golo. and silver mines alone are greater than he dividends paid by all the banks in this country, and the dividends paid by copper mines are greater than the dividends paid by all the railroads in the United States, to say nothing of our coal and other mining interests. The products of our mines tocay ap- 7roximate 52 per cent of the trans oortation interests of the country, and t is not departure from truth to say hat the success of all American in dustrial life depends upon the success of mining.
 Secretary Shaw, of the United States reasury, says:
 Tt is an error to rate the import 1nce of our many industries according to their relative productiveness. Onr actories and workshops produced s13.- 200 .000,OOO gross in 1900: agriculture, '4.0oO, ,00O.0OO; forestry, s2,000, ,000.- 100. and mines, s1.OOO.o 100000; about equally divided between metallic and non-metallic products. Yet it must occur to all that manufacture-appar- ently our greatest wealth-producing H6ustry-is dependent upon iron, cop Ter, lead. zinc and other non-metallic minerals. Our manufacturing inter- ests would dwindle into insigniicance but for our mines"
 During the past century we have brought the land surface of our entire country in touch with the markets of the world, and developed it's producing capacity in natural products of bread stuffs, provisions, cotton, timber and other products of the soil. The mines, however, we have only begun to explore. but we have sufficiently de- yeloped them to prove beyond all question the enormous store of min erals which we have but to bring to the surface to find markets awaiting them-

STOCKS FIRMLY HELD- Writer from Copper Country of Mieh- ican Says No Risbee Stocks Offered.

sSSn says NO 6tSpcc StoCNS SHcTco.
 A writer from the Lax Superior copper country, who is a heavy in- vestor in mining securities and specu- latiye properties, in a communication to Bisbee parties, which was received yesterday. states that all Bisbee min ing stocks are firmly held in that sec tion, and it is difficult to make pur- chases of shares in the more promis- ing development companies, as well as those of the Bonanza Circle" "Ev- erybody here" says the writer, hold ing Warren district mining stocks are perfectly willing to retain possession of them until the properties have been proved and it has been demonstrated whether or not the propositions they are interested in are valuable for mining. Their confidence in the va rious properties is such that they are unwilling to part with their stocks un- less offered very good prices for them, and whereby they can realize fine profits. In my opinion they are wise in assuming this kind of attitude. ' have made several visits to the Bisbee camp, investigating while there nearly all the properties, and there is no doubt in my mind that the majority of the companies now doing development and exploratory work in the Warren district will meet with success. If this prediction proves true the stock holders in the various instances will reap rich profits by their investments. "

To procure any number of pertenen- e1as less than five will cost about as ' Geh. and a larger number may be xerkoned as costing from $15 to $25 cach in addition to the figures given fbove.

"MINEs, MINING, MINERALS"
Valuable Booklet on These Subjects
 Issued by Chicago Firm.


 Readers of The Review, especially those who are interested in mines and mining, will be interested in a valu- able compilation, a booklet entitled Mines, Mining and Minerals" which has recently been issued by the West ern Trust & Guaranty company, New York Life building, Chicago.
 The mining business and methods of mine promotion are taken up and dealt with in an exhaustive discussion GOV ering about thirty pages, to which has been added Part II, covering the ele- ments Of geology and mineralogy, ar ranged in encyclopedia form, with a glossary of mining terms and phrases, tables of weights and measures and other mining data compiled and ar ranged by Frank T. Day.
 The work of Mir Day has been done in a most careful and thorough man. ner, with a view of giving information to those especially who are not ia. miliar with the mining definition od words and explanation of phrases and of methods used in mining not gener. ally understood by the average invest. or in mining propositions.
 It is a publication that readers oi The Review who are interested in the mining industry should have, and al though intended to be sent to stock holders of the Western Trust and Guaranty company, a limited umbel will be sent to those making inquiry for the booklet and sending four cents in stamps to the above firm.
