Messrs. Caulkins and Bridget of
Webb City, mill contractors, visited
the mines last week and express
the highest praise for eur camp
and for its future prosperity. These
gentlemen are builders of the "Yel-
low Dog" mill, of 1000 tons daily
capacity, run by electricity and en-
ploying 2S7 men. Nessrs. Caulkins
and Bridget are not only first class
mill builders, but thoroughly reli-
able in every way, and If our mine
operators do any business with
them they will find them capable
prompt and responsible.
EDITOR NEws:-I hear the mana
gers of the Baxter Public Library
intend giving all the books to the
white masons to pot in their new
lodge rooms. If these people had
the legal right to give away a pub.
lie library which was established
by the generosity of our people,
why should it be given away with.
out vote of the whole people. And
again, why not divide it around
among all the lodgesr Strange city
lodge of colored masons would like
some of those books and they have
as much right to them as the free
masons. In the name of the two
holy saints, John of Jerusalem and
Zerubbabel we demand our shars.

 Euierprise The great showing of high grade ore in the Cleopatra mine continues to be the chief topic of conversation in the mining world of Jerome, and the unanim- ous opinion is that President Hull is developing a large body of ore in that property. As depth is at- tained in the winze in the Win ningham tunnel the ore is becOm- ing more solid and has all the appearance of being much richer than when first encountered. The winze is now down through more than eight feet of ore. Everything being taken from the winze is being stored in drifts to await the con- necting of the winze with the Dillon tunnel, when it will be lowered and taken in the smelter site east of the mouth of this tun- mel Fully $125,000 have been ex- pended.

MINING NEWS.

Prospector. The Copper Queen has produced during the month of March S.000,000 pounds of copper. The production for last month was a little more than ' 100000 pounds. The Calumet X Arizona smelter has a record of producing about 100000 pounds ofcopper a month during the present year, and with the enlargement planned for this year will double this output before the first of next year.
 Prospector: Thomas Pidwell, of Pearce, is a Tombstone visitor to- day, and states that there is quite a little work being done in that camp, and that Foreman Swadlin, of the Commonwealth Mining Co.,, is doing considerable cyaniding of the old dumps of that company. He also states that new strike was made recently on the Mon monier property at that place, and that the assays go very high.
 Globe Belt: J. c. Erman brought news of an important strike of ore in the Starlight mine of the Tri- Bullion company, of which Frank Weist, late of Globe, is now in charge In drift recently started from the main tunnel 1400 feet from the portal, six feet of 10 per cent carbonate ore was struck. The work done on the Starlight during the past month goes far to- ward demonstrating that 1t is a very valuable property.
 Enterprise: The New England and Clifton Consolidated district, will join the producing list The company is now preparing to ship from their ore reserves in the mine and also from the large tonnage of high grade ore on the dumps. The Copper King lode, upon which the the company has done most of it's development work, has always been considered about the richest in the district The company has been developing the property steadily for several years and has the deep est shaft-from the surface-in the district.
 Star: Fred Graves is home again from the Arivaca Gold Mining company's camp fifteen miles west from Arivaca Junction. These were the M Redondo claims, now owned by the Danas of West Yir- ginia and Washington. MT, Dav- endorf is also interested in the property. The latter is now in the east, as also the Danas. \. ". Forbes is in charge of this property and the Tres Amigos in the Orc Blanco district. Mr. Graves said there was a snow fall of eight inches in the Arivaca district last week

NEW YORK, Sept. 9.-The stock
market rallied after the good bank
statement this morning, later sold off on
profit taking, but showed firm tone at
the close.
The market was under pressure from
the opening and all through the first
hour, the first selling coming from
Western houses, with active and large
speculative accounts, which put large
lines OF shorts, on a belief based on ad-
vices from New York that the bank
statement would be decidedly unfavora-

One of the Western houses telegraph
ed that the statement would be the
worst in two years. This report was
later circulated all over the floor of the
stock exchange and caused general SELL
ing by room traders.
London could not be considered a
factor. only a few of the arbitragc
brokers cabling. and their trading was
about evenly divided between purchases
and sales. Government bonds were un-
changed; other bonds, firm.

What about a bull market That is a
question which has been asked in Wall
street more than any other during the
past week There is no definite answer
judging from the fact that those in the
best position to know are very chary
about making predictions. 1t is an ac-
knowledged fact that the amateur has.
after many years. been taught the art
OF selling short, and, at the same time.
Is wary about holding onto a loss too
long He gets in and out, just the same
as his professional brethren, and takes
smaller losses than formerly. He is
not so apt to buy when advised. and at
times has been known TO retard even an
advance. Perhaps. however, he is not
such factor in the market as he would
like to be thought, and yet there are
some financial authorities who aver
that could only the outsider be brought
in, something like bull movement
might be brought about
