MINING ENGINEER |S UNDER
 ARREST Accused of Defrauding A Wickenburg
 Company
Fred H. Perkins Charged With Fa1sifying
 Accounts
(From Sundays Daily.)

Fred H. Perkins, who is charged with having misappropriated between 5000 and $2O,OOO of the funds of the Black Hawk-West Superior Mining Co.,, which is operating near Wicken- burg, has been arrested in Portland, Ore, and will be returned to Salt Lake City for trial.
 Perkins has for the past few months eluded the most vigilant efforts of the Salt Lake detectives. He has an aged mother at Flagstaff, who is grief -strick- en over her son s fall from grace.
 Attorney E. E. Ellinwood of Pres colt has handled the case in Arizona for the Black Hawk officials, who are prosecuting Perkins. He has dug up much of the evidence that will be used to convict him. Perkins was made consulting engineer and superintendent of the company about fifteen months ago, and was placed in charge of the company's property in Arizona. Dur ing the year that he retained this po- sition, it is claimed, he secured at least S15,OO0, which was intended for the development of the mines, and the op- eration of the mill, and appropriated this amount to his own use.
 Last August several of the officials of the company, who reside in West Su- perior, Wis, visited the mines and dis covered that reported developments and improvements had not been made.
 An expert wqs sent to the property and reported that statements made by Perkins regarding immense bodies of ore opened in the mines had been ex- aggerated. The expert reported that not over 2,00O tons of ore were in sight and that this would not justify the starting of the mill, as recommended by Perkins.
 Further investigation showed that the  expense account for the year contained many items which the company's of fieials believe were fictitious. The money paid out by the company in satisfac- tion of these claims is alleged to have been misappropriated by Perkins.
 Perkins maintained his offices in Salt Lake, and was interested in Utah min ing propositions while acting as super intendent for the Arizona company. The officials of the Black Hawk-West Superior company followed their ex animation of the mines by a visit to Salt Lake. During the progress of their investigation in Salt Lake Per kins left the city, and was not heard of again until he was arrested in Port land last Saturday night.
 Perkins is said to have turned in fic- titious bills of lading for ore that never left the mine, bills for supplies that were never purchased, and to have padded the payroll of the company.

Inmates of A1mshouSe Shiver From Lack
 Of Fire
Supervisors Intend To Investigate The
 Matter
(From Sundays Daily.)

When the board of supervisors con venes tomorrow at its regular month ly session, one of the important mat ters that will come before it for consid- eration is the conduct of the county hospital by William Thomas, the pre- sent superintendent of that institu- tion.
 From reports that have reached some of the members of the board, and also the Journsl-Miner, since the recent cold spell started in this section, it seems that the inmates of that institu- tiOn who were unable to help them selves were in an almost frozen con- dition at times, caused by the scarcity of fuel to keep the different apartments of the institution in anything like a comfortable condition.
 Investigation by a member of the board of supervisors yesterday is said to have revealed the fact that the re- ports were well founded, many of the inmates being found to be suffering from the absolute need of fuel to keep the stoves in their wards heated en- Ough to make the place habitable for men of robust constitution, much less the invalids, who, from force of cir cumstanees, are compelled to seek re- lief from the elymOsynary institution which the county has been at so much expense in providing for them.
 Some of the unfortunates, it is said, have gone to a neighboring farmhouse to keep warm, and it is known that three of them came to Prescott a couple of nights ago and thawed out them selves around a stove in one of the saloons.
 It is part of the contract of Thomas that he should supply food, fuel, medi- cine and clothing to those in his charge, hence the complaints are directed against him individually. In his be- half it is urged that he has been in i'll health, and has been unable to give the time to supervising the institution that it's needs require.
 At any rate the facts will come out tomorrow at the board meeting.

Hot Sequel of a Warm Dispute At Ash
 Fork
DishwaSher And Cook In a Lively
 Affray
(From Sundays Daily.)

NrIOm OunUdy Ddlly.J
 For foreibly seating Charles Jordan on red hot range in the Harvey eat ing house at Ash Fork on Thursday afternoon, John Reddy was sentenced to forty days imprisonment yesterday by Justice Talbot.
 It appeared from the evidence that early on Thursday morning John Reddy, who was employed as a dish washer at the eating house, while in- toxieated, got into dispute with Chas. Jordan, who was then serving as chef of that culinary institution.
 A mix-up ensued, to which both bore mute evidence in pair of black eyes. During the scrap Jordan got hold of butcher knife, and chased Reddy out of the building.
 Later in the day Reddy returned and seeing Jordan unarmed, got hold of him, and in the seuffe which follow ed seated Jordan on the red hot range. The lady employees of the place beat a nasty retreat, alarming the neighbors, who summoned the deputy sheriff, and he placed Reddy under ar rest.
 The eating house authorities dis charged both of the partieipants in the affray, and Jordan swore to the com plaint upon which Reddy was tried and convicted. Jordan is now taking his meals in an erect position.

NEW BIG PLANT FOR THE P|TTSBURG-
 JEROME Operations To Resume On A Larger
 Scale
Manager Cochrane Tells Of Conditions In
 The East
(From Sundays Daily.)

'fDo you know that the people back east who are interested in the mining business are better posted on the resources of this county and what IS being done here than many of the resi- dents of this city," said D. s. Coch- rane, general manager of the Pittsburg- Arizona Mining company, who has just returned from trip to Pittsburg, Pa, to a Journal-Miner representative yesterday.
 "It seemed to me when was back there that all the investing public are interested in Arizona, and what is be- ing done here, and great many are getting wise, as the saying goes, on mining investments, so that the pro- moters of wild cat schemes from the west have harder time than formerly in placing stocks of companies that have no properties of merit,' he said.
 "Qur company has purchased and shipped while I was in Pittsburg,'' he continued, |" a 60-horse power engine, a compressor, two power drills, pump and hoist. which will be installed as soon as delivered at our properties, when we will resume operations there on larger scale than ever and con- tinue sinking until a depth of 1000 feet is reached. The shaft on the pro- perty is now PIG feet in depth, and there is some drifting done, but we will not start any more drifts until depth of 800 feet is reached. |"
 The properties of the Pittsburg- Jerome Mining company are situated in the Black Hills within a short distance of the famous United Verde mines at Jerome, which is said to be one of the greatest copper producers in Ari- zona. Development work was discon- tinued on the claims some time ago on account of the machinery on the ground being inadequate to continue the work to a greater depth, and ar engagements for the prosecution of the work on larger scale than ever were made. which necessitated the purchase of the machinery mentioned.
 D. s. Cochrane is busily engaged looking into the many details connect ed with the proper erection of the machinery when it arrives, and states that the mine will be developed in that thorough and minerlike manner which was always the policy of his company since the property was ae quired He will leave for his mining camp today.
