 Robert Req, who recently arrived from Globe, says that everything is moving forward with unusual rapid ty in that city. The heavy rains of last week did considerable damage to the tracks of the Old Dominion con- pany, but repairs will soon be complet- ed. The new converter plant, recent ly installed, is giving excellent satis- faction and the output of copper in Globe promises to meet all expecta- tions in the future. It is learned from another source that MT. De- lancy, the Phelps-Dodge building ar is now in Globe perfecting plans for a new gymnasium, which will be erected in Globe in the near future. Connected with the gymna- sium will be a natatorium and every for the comfort and of the men in the em- ploy of the company, including be- sides the gymnasium room, a reading room, bowling and billiard rooms. etc.-Bisbee Review.
 The Copper Queen shelter is mak- ng every effort to hurry work on the TWO big furnaces which are in course 'f construction, and from present in- lications it would appear that Doug as is in for period of increased | this fall which will eclipse she has yet experienced. The new furnaces are expected to be eady for firing within six weeks, and when this is done an additional ca ,aCity of 800 tons every twenty-four tours will be given the shelter Gen. .ral Manager Walter Douglas has that from the present ime every two tons of ore handled Il addition to what the smelter is LOW taking care of will mean the of an extra man above he present force, either on the rail- oad, in the smelters or the machine hops. When the new furnaces are they will, together with he one opened last week, have ca 'acity equal to the five original urnaces, and thus the capacity of he plant will be exactly doubled. The advance in the price ot copper 5 no doubt responsible for the in- reased activity. Copper IS now uoted at IT cents per pound, and here is every indication that it will o to 20 cents, and that much time ill elapse before any decline is to e observed. With this incentive efore them the companies operating here may be expected to take every dvantage of the present opportunity nd arrange to turn out every pound f copper possible. The output for he month of August was 6,5OO,00O ounds of copper, which is 1,5OO,OOO ounds short of the record month. his decrease was due to the inter- erence in the work caused by the in- tallation of the new furnaces. The utput of the Calumet and Arizona nelter for August was 2,7OO,OO0 giving a total of 9,200,000 ounds of copper for Douglas for th lonth.-Review.
