YAVAPAI COUNTY
Growing Importance of the Mining In
dustry. New Developments

From the Prescott Courier,
Report is that rich ore, some o.
which will carry $4,000 per ton gold. has
been encountered on the 800 level of th'
Gladstone mine, which adjoins tn,
McCabe.
A car load of machinery for the Oc-
tave mine left Prescott last week. Tht
machinery included hoist and heavy
pump. Some of the most extensive
mine development work ever done il
Yavapai county is about to be started
on the Octave group.
A miner in conversation with the
Courier man last evening said that in
the union mine, there is eight feet of
ore between walls which will average
$40 per ton gold.
c. Douglas Brown, of Brown Bros,
has returned from Kansas where he
made arrangements with the Richinbar
Co. to install for them at their mines ten
additional stamps to the mill and GO
h. p. boiler. Mr.. Brown returned by
way of Denver where he made arrang
ments with the F.M. Davis Iron Works
company for the machinery.
Supt. Goodloe, of the congress mine,
states that everything is working
smoothly at the Congress property.
Some time ago an important ore strike
was made in this mine which insures
its permanency. A large number Of
men are now at work at Congress open
ing up new ore bodies.
John S. Jones brought in from the
Jesse camp bar of extra pure gold
weighing about ia ounces, the product
of ore from the company's mines is run
through the Jesse Mines company's
mill He will arrange for the shipment
of concentrates to the Arizona SmeIt-
ing company's works at Humboldt. He
now has 100 tons of concentrates on
hand
From the Prescott Journal Miner.
The Jessie Mines company is prepar-
ing to install 60-stamp mill, crushers,
amalgamation and cyanide processes.
The company also proposes to erect at
its power plant two $50 kilowatt cleo
trio generators, which equals in capa-
city 900 horse power, and four $50 horse
power boilers of the type generally
known as the Scotch marine boiler.
The object in having double the power
necessary to run the plant in generators
is to give positive assurance at all time
that no shut down will be necessary on
account of any breakage or accident
that might occur to the generator in

use. 1t will require about Ga miles of
pipe line to connect the large under
ground storage reservoir situated above
the Jesse mine, which will supply the
mill and reduction plant with water.
This reservoir will have capacity of
over 1,OOO,O 200 gallons. The Jessie
mine was located in the year 1889, and
since that time has produced about
$500, 900 in gold besides there is about
500. 600 worth of lower grade ore on
the dump already mined and ready to
mill with immense ore bodies in the
mine opened up.
From the Jerome Mining News.
The work of removing the ore from
the fire district in the United Verde
mine is progressing very satisfactorily,
and there is no doubt but that all may
be removed from the fire district.
A Prescott paper insists that men en-
ployed in the fire district are compelled
to wear covering over the face while
at work. At times, while handling the
finer ore, they wear something over the
nose for protection against the dust,
the same as they have to do in any
part of the mine. Last month Super
intendent Tom Taylor made record
breaking run with the United Verde
smelter, and it is thought that the out
put this month will be greater than
that of last.

TREASURELAND OF AMERICA
Reports From Many Districts In the
Territory, Telling Of Important Dis
coveries, Active Operations and Or
uanization Of New Companies

The situation in Mexico resulting from
the dynamite famine is rapidly becom-
ing acute. A few days ago petition
was sent by telegraph to President Diaz
asking for some relief. There is a
prohibitive duty of S2l0 per ton on dy-
Mantle. The Mexican national monop-
oily which has the sole right to bring
dynamite into the republic free has en-
tered into an agreement as agent to
the American trust. 1t is pointed out
that after allowing wide margins for
all possible expenses there is net pro-
fit of S6.65 per case, or S226 per ton, or
$532O per car for the company. The
miners feel that this bonus is exhorbi-
tant and unjust and ask for immediate
relief.
For thirty years Prof. Douglas has
studied the west and now stands at the
head of the greatest mining enterpris-
prises to be found in this section of the
country. The companies, of which he
is now the head, including the railroads,
are today probably giving employ
ment to 10000 men in Arizona, Mexico
and Sonora, Mexico. He could give
mining congress some very interesting
information about the development of
the mining industry in the southwest
had he the time and inclination. Since
Professor Douglas entered the mining
industry inArizona there have been rap
id strides in the discovery and applica-
ton of new methods and machinery in
extracting values from ores. 1t was
he who first installed the converter pro-
cess in Arizona after he had travelled to
the great copper mines in Spain and
studied it. The first converter ever oper-
ated in the territory was in Bisbee
about Is years ago. Now there is not
a copper plant in Arizona without a
converter. The converter method has
saved many of the low grade camps and
without it many of the present produc-
ing copper camps would be deserted.

From the Copper Era
o. P. Lovejoy, of Boston, who is in
terested in the Chase Creek Copper
company, arrived last week and is CIV
ing the camp a careful examination.
He is agreeably surprised at the mag
nitude and development of the district
finding it far beyond his expectations.
He is also pleased with the location and
property of the Chase Creek company,
which, beyond doubt, has future
equal to the best of them.
Work is progressing rapidly on the
construction of the Shannon converter
plant. The steel frame for the build
ing is in place and the foundation walls
for the plant are about completed. A
new engine will also in placed so that
there will be ample power at all times.
1t is expected that the plant will be
running by January, after which the
Shannon can claim one of the most COM
plete and modern plants in the terri
tory The plant is not as large as
some in the territory, but it can be
added to under the original plans as oc-
casion may require. The Shannon COM
pany will soon be ready to do regular
custom business in treating ores and
will save the value of precious metals
as well as the copper in the ore. This
will be of great advantage to the dis
trict and will doubtless be the means of
opening many mines that are now idle,
the ores of which carry other values be
sides copper, but which are too low
grade to ship to FL Paso. The Shannon
company has made very pronounced
success during the past year, but as
yet is only at the beginning of its
career.
From Stafford Guardian.
Francis H. Wilson, president of the
Gila Valley Copper company, accom-
panied by Murray w. Ferris, of New
York, vice president, arrived in Stafford
on Friday of last week to inspect the
property of the company located near
the Lone Star district. We are in
formed that the machinery for the new
concentration to be put in by this COM
pany will be shipped within 80 days.
From the Morenci Leader.
The Detroit Copper Mining company
is arranging poles for an extension of
their electric lines to the Santa Rosa
group, which they own, near Coronado.
1t is purposed to install an electric drill
with which development work will be
done and more progress made than by
the old hand method. The power will
be used to develop intervening pros
poets and for hosting where the shafts
have become too deep to handle with
windlass.

Antonio Gomez, Rich Sheep
Grower, Meets instant Death
in a Forest at His Ranch
South of CaIisteo.
LEAVES YOUNG WIFE
Hurled From Wagon Load Of Wood by
Frightened Team of Mules and
Crushed Before Help Could

Antonio Gomez, aged 67 years, one
of the wealthiest sheep growers OF
Santa Fe County, was instantly killed
Tuesday in forest near his ranch
twenty-five miles south of Galisteo.
Gomez, accompanied by some of his
employees, was hauling wood. He was
driving a team of mules which be-
came frightened and ran away. When
the mules ran Gomez was hurled from
the wagon, heavy log falling on him.
His life was crushed out before help

UNOERFL0W Of
THE RIO GRANDE
Water Beneath the Surface Forms a
Large Sluggish Stream Which
Moves Worry Slowly.

Washington, Jan. 18.-Charles S.
Slichter, who has been making an in
vestigation of the underground move
ment of the waters of the Southwest,
has made most interesting report to
the chief engineer of the United States
Reclamation Service concerning the
underfow of the Rio Grande near Ell
Paso and Las Cruces.
Above the city of Ell Paso the
Rio Grande passes through narrow
pass, or gorge, which the river has
cut out of limestone rock. The river
bed is frequently dry at this point,
and it became important to the grow
ing community of Ell Paso and adjacent
settled portions of the Rio Grande
Valley to know how much water was
passing underground through the
gorge of the river.
The distance to bed rock at the
gorge is about 80 feet, measured from
the bed of the river. To this depth
the channel which the river cut
through the rock is filled with sand
and gravel, through which the So
called "underfow" of the river moves.
1t was found that the ground water
of the Rio Grande moved only three
feet in twenty-four hours. Tho
amount of underflow passing through
the gorge was therefore small. Unfor-
tunately the quality of the water at
a depth of IS feet below the surface
was found to be very salty, and the
water continually increased in salti-
ness until at SO to 60feet it was about
aus strong as sea water. For this reas-
on the underflow at this point is of lit
tie or no value.
A large number of tests of pumping
plants in the valley of the Rio Grande
were made, and the cost of irrigation
by use of well water was carefully
determined. The average cost of
water from the pumping plants was
about IS for each acre of water one
foot deep. Test wells were drilled
near Las Cruces, New Mexico, by
means of which determination was
made of how much water could be
safely drawn from the water bearing
sands and gravels of the valley with
out overdrawing upon the available
supply.

GETS HIS FIGHT
In LEGISLATURE
Peabody's Contest is Before a Com.
mittee Of Eighteen Republicans
and Nine Democrats.

Denver, Jan. 18.-Republican lead
ers Of the legislature decided late yes
terday afternoon to give Governor
Alva Adams until Saturday to file his
answer to former Governor Peabody's
contest but that the committee shall
begin to take testimony at once. It
was decided to have a committee of
eighteen Republicans and nine Demo
Gratis which will be divided into nine
subcommittee of three members
each.
Democrats object.
twenty-seven, nine Senators and eigh-
teen Representatives to which the
general assembly late last night dele
gated power to hear the gubernatorial
contest, met this morning to begin its
inquiry which must be finished by
March L. Representative William H.
Griffith is chairman of the committee.
A noticeable feature of the contest is
the fact that Governor Adams leading
attorney is Judge julius B. Bissell, Re-
publican, and John M. Waldron, who Is
conducting the case for Peabody, has
been identified with the Democratic
party previous to this year. All the
Democratic members of both Houses
today signed protest to be placed in
the records against having any evil
dence or action taken in the contest
by committee, alleging that this
method is unconstitutional and that
the contest should be heard before the
joint session.
Behind Closed Doors.
The morning session of the commit.
tee was held behind closed doors. Or.
ganization was effected, secretary,
sergeant-at-arms and stenographer be-
ing appointed. The committee decid-
