Over Million and One-HaIf Has been Spent in Re-openins of the Big Mines-Four Cars Per Month Going Forward and with Regularity Ores Showing Well.

Whats the matter with Tombstone! She's all right The manner IL has battled with adverse conditions with the winning object in sight is admirable, says the Tombstone Pros pector. The company is throwing more water out of the mine than any other mining plant in the territory. It costs to handle water and the stream which heads out toward Fair bank would indicate that an outlay has been neI essary 70 look after de tail
 Over ont million and a half has been spent opening up the big mines in Tombstone, and the reward is now in sight.
 From this system the shipments at the present time average over cars per month and the ore is strictly high grade.
 The Big Shaft, the West Side. the Tranquility. the Silver Thread and the Emerald are substantial pro ducers, and the water situation is un- der control The company is vindi- eating the splendid confidence i'm posed in them by the public, all Of which is of profound importance to the business man and the property owner of Tombstone A good prop sition just brought to light is in a drift on the 400 in the big shaft. were five carloads nearly every piece of which showed free gold liberally, brought the company handsome re turns. This particular body of ore was found not ten feet from the old Flora Morrison shaft and which came very near being discovered years ago.

3,50O,OOO POUNDS OF
Copper Produced by Calumet & Ari- zons Last Month-Largest in Histo- ry of the company-c. & p. Holding Firm-Generai Review of the Prop critics During the Past Week.
Curb Letter.
(By Frank J. Graf.e

AhN dlh t. 1i
 The stock market for the past three weeks has been one of uncertainty, with no activity. The inactivity of the rnarle. is due. To money sources, and are such that can not be avoided and not easily adjusted. It certainly is not from the conditions or develop ments Of the property, for they were never better looking or more encour- aging than al present. The Calumet & Arizona, through its experienced and most proficient management, both al the mines and smelter. produced last month 3,050,000 pounds of copper, the largest run for any single month up to the present date. The dividend just declared payable on stock on record June 4th, makes the third dividend by this company since December IS. 1903. just thirteen months after the first furnace was blown in. with the brightest prospects of passing a like amount ere the rear is closed. As soon as the Senator claims l and ? are developed, through the Oliver shaft I see no reason why this company could not pay SIS per year. This com pany is earning a great deal more thar is distributed to its stockholders, but a good surplus is the foundation of sue cessful mining. Although the stock is now quoted al sl00. which is a pret- ty low figure, considering that should the company pay dividend of S10 per year per share what might good and reliable investment il would be at the present price.
 We can not but call attention Of the investor 70 the Calumet & Pittsburg which is now being quoted at s29.50 There is no stock, with the exception of L. s. & F., which has held so firm as the above mentioned stock Dur ing the spring of the year this stock was being handled on the open mar ket at $40 for $500 paid stock. It was surprising to see the confidence the holders of this stock had by hold ing on and not caring to sell for less than s7 5to s1oO per share, which am sure they will e. if they have lit tie patience. Many efforts have been made to bar this stock. but so far have proven unsuccessful, as there are too many moneyed men looking for cheap Calumet & Pittsburg.
 Lake Superior & Pittsburg takes the biscuit when We talk about Develop. ment stock. Not since two years ago, when the c. & A.-C. &P. reached the high marks has any of the Bonan. ga stock made it's investors such hand some returns as the L. s. & P If you will recall just a year ago or there oR- Ii. the small holders as fast as they were able at S30 to s35 per share. Here is where Pittsburg holders were letting the best thing they ever had go through their fingers, while Duluth and Calumet were taking this stock as fast as it was offered. This was CContinued on Page Six.)
