RUmoREo MINE TRUST.
Are Santa EuIalia Mines to Be Put in
 to One Vast Trust?

Are the Santa Eulalia mines with their vast supplies of ore so desired by the smelters, to be organized un- der one vast trust. Whether they are to be or not the, the Chihuahua Enter prise does not pretend to state, but a reumor to that effect mide it's ap. pearance on the streets last Thursoay, but it could not be authenticated in any way. The rumor is merely giv- en for what it is worth. but it may be worth the attention of mine own CTS to watch.
 If there is such a plan on foot a "smelter trust" is back of it with the purpose of getting under one control at least the principal mines of the camp. and the two railroads into it, and then the small holders can whis- tie for all the good any kick would do them.
 Santa Eulalia. is the source of the greatest supply of desirable fluxing ores in all Mexico, and possibly in the world, for that matter, and the control of the camp would settle the matter of customs smelter here for all time, probably. If there is such thing on foot, and a certain local lawyer is said to possess the information, it be- hooves local mining men and the peo-

HOT AFTER YAQUiS.

From information received in the form of letter from Dr. H. A. Schell, the optician of this city, who is in Guaymas, it is evident that the Sono' ra authorities have woke up to the re- cent Yaqui outrages and are ging af. ter them in good shape, in keeping with their promises.
 The letter, which came yesterday, under that date, says: The govern. .or's staff and troops returned yester. day from the country adjacent to La Colorado with 166 Yaqui prisoners ta- ken during the campaign. On the 9th of this month a party if sixty-sev' en Yaquis, including men, women and children, were brought to Guaymas from their camp near La Colorado, and will be deported to Yucatan. There is considerable talk about the the danger to Americans, but no ap- parent signs of trouble at present" "
 However, it is just as well not to wait until further mischief has been done, for Yaquis, just like other In. dians, do not make a practice of ad- vertising what they are going to do, and no one knows at what moment there is liable to be a repetition of the tragedy enacted a month ago, where in four Americans were killed and mu, tilated in ghastly style. sac ~

AMERICANA BONDED.

This week, H. F. Allen of this city and Col. J. M. Wilson take an option on the Americana mine of Dale Broth CTS and Felix Mcdonald in Terrazas camp on a purchase price basis of SIPS, ,000 gold. Messrs. Ryan and Will son put up a forfeit in cash to be expended in pumping out the mine.
 This property. says the Chihuahua Enterprise, which has produced so much good shipping ore from above the water level, has been given a black eye on account of the water in the cave at the 250-foot level. Three different concerns have had the mine and not one has had the nerve" to give the water a fair trial. Messrs. Ryan and Wilson have examined it thoroughly and taken levels over the valley and of the lake at SaRuz, and they feel confident of handling the water. Col Wilson, a thoroughly practical mining man, who has had charge of the vast interests of the Hearst estate in Mexico for years, says he has no fear from the valley water whatever. He says there is q possibility that the porphyry dike which runs through the mine with the ore body may run through the noun tain and form a water course as it sometimes does. Col. Wilson says that they will try the water with the present pumps which have an aggre-

year. Home consumption of copper is sure to show a substantial increase and there is no indication of any change in the foreign situation that will tend to reduce exports. Pros poets, therefore, continue very favor able that the present price level will at least be maintained for several months to come.
 Good judges believe that the local copper share market is gradually gathering strength and getting is shape for period of growing activity and advancing prices. Incidents like the Lawson raid on Amalgamated, the break in Greene. the pressure on U. s. Mining and the explosion in the Os- ceola mine serve to illustrate the fact that there are very few copper stocks for sale. There is neither liquidation that the upward movement in our Bos- ton copper list is already beginning.

Boston, Feb. 1.-The determination of Yacktsman Thomas W. Lawson to make a stand for independence and national character in cup defense is said to be on the verge of blooming again, and this time in the shape Of one Jubilee, with the Kaiser's Cup as an object of his ambition.
 There is persistent rumor in yachting circles here tat Mir. Lawson will buy the famous cup yacht Jubilee and enter her in the ocean race to Kiel. The boat has been raced very littlesince the year she was built, on ly having been in commission one year since then, and is in good condi. tion. Boston yachtsmen think she would give a good account of herself in the contest.
 Mir. Lawson's cup aspirations were not deadened by his failure to have his Independence recognized in the trial races for the Americas Cup, but have only been lying dormant. AS he expressed it in his introduction to his History of the Americas Cup"
 AS owner of an American vessel denied an opportunity to race for the defense of an American national em- blem of sea supremacy, receive thou sands of letters indorsing my stand in the controversy" Aan since then Mir Lawson has been anxious. as he puts it, ''to make for the betterment of American sports"
 While he is fond of the Wall street game and of horse-racing, he has a special feling for yachting, and it is thought he considers the Kaiser's plan for an open race good opportu nity to enter the international field of sport. He Is a member of the Bos ton Yacht Club and can enter his boat through that organization. MT. Lawson was indignant at the re

have not as yet opened important pro ducing mines. South Dakotas pro- duction was confined to a few thou sands pounds, secured mainly in low grade fluxing ores, though there are two properties of much promise in the Black Hills, which eventually may be- come considerable producers. Col olrado, with hundreds of attempts at copper mines, has its first real cop per mine to develop, but secures be- tween six and ten million pounds of copper yearly from cuperiferous sill yer, lead and zinc ores. New Mexican production shows but little change from the 1903, but is liable to be in- creased materially within the next two or three years, though important development in the Burro mountains of Grant county in the western part of the state, not far from the Arizona border, and in the same geological horizon as the great AriZonan cop per deposits of Bisbee, Clifton, and the Chiricahua mountains.
 The market for the metal remains strong and apparently free from man. ipulative influence. The stock mar ] ket has failed, as yet, to respond to the betered conditions of the metal market, and shares in the leading mines show but small gains over prices made when the metal was sell ling at two cents per pound less than now. The apathy in the share mar
 ket is liable to be relieved at almost any time, as the floating supply of
 stocks at present prices is small, but little buying pressure would be need ed to start prices upward along the
 entire line.
 Work on the identification of the Calumet S, Hecla mine is well in hand The plans of the Calumet & Hecla
 are far more ambitious than is gen
 erally supposed, and call for installa
 tion of one of the very largest electric power plants ever constructed, capa ble of generating energy by the tens lof thousands of horse power. Several years will be required for thecomple
 tion of the plans already made, but
 when this work is done the Calumet &
 Hecla will have one of the show
 plants of the country. While the worh
 of identification has been undertaken
 primarily as a measure of economy and efficiency, it will have an import ! ant bearing also upon the demand ol the metal made by the mine, and fol that reason Calumet & Hecla will kill two birds with but a single stone. The favorable developments in tho Kearsarge lode in the shafts of ths |, Calumet & Hecla have directed at tention to the Tecumseh, lying nex , south of the Osceola, which. in turn is the deepest neighbor of the Calu ] met & Hecla.

 Charles A.

The company is con- sidering a proposition to erect a con- centrating and teaching works in Kelly gulch near the mine.
 It is understood that H. w. Clark and Wm. Stewart have given a six months option on their large group of copper claims east of town and ad- joining some of the claims of the Unit ed Globe and Arizona Commercial, and property of Globe & Arizona De- velopment company. The Clark and Stewart group is a very encouraging property and is situated in the part of the Globe district that is at pres ent attracting the most attention and which will soon be the scene of very active development.
 The storm did not seriously inter- fere with the operations of the De- minion Copper Mining & Smelting company, except that some of the construction work was suspended for two or three days. Two furnaces have continued in blast, making the usual output of copper. Supplies of coke and sulphide ore ran quite low but on Tuesday the breaks in the rail- road track between town and the smelter was repaired and the cars of coke, coal and sulphide ore in the rail- road yard here were hauled to the smelter. Wednesday there were fur ther arrivals of fuel and sulphide from Cutter and San Carlos. and danger of shutdown of the shelter was avert ed.-Silver Belt.

] Hopewell has long been a producer of placer gold. In 1881 placer de posits were discovered in Eureka gulch. but it is probable that consider able gold was obtained in other parts
 of the district prior to that date-prin- cipally through the medium of rock CTS. Since that time a number of placer ventures have been in opera tion at various times, but these have all been on a limited scale. Stronger organizations are now acquiring ter ritory in the district and with the em- ployment of efficient and practical
 supervision, will undoubtedly pay handsome dividends to the investors. | Among the real business enterpris- es in this section there is none that has gone about its work in a more thorough and systematic way than the King William Mining and Milling company. owning thelower flat placer at Hopewell, about twenty miles from i Tres Piedras. This company. like all others in this section, suffered last year from the lack of snow, but its courage is undaunted and we are
 happy that there has already been aI
 abundance of snow fall as to insure
 very large supply of water this year. The Lower Flat Placer is conceded

When given rail communication, which is absolutely essential to successful mining oper- ations of the present day, consider able exploratory work is likely to be undertaken, and the finding of few profitable mines should follow there from.

 The Mitchell directors have decid- ed to get a western mining superin. tendent and resume the development work. continuing to sink the shaft and drift for ore and to operate the diamond drill as well.
 To provide funds for this purpose they have called a one dollar assess ment on 10000 shares outstanding and made it payable within thirty days. Secretary Bateman says he has had over 100 letters from stockholders say ing they are willing to pay and urg- ing the company to proceed.
 This is the fifth assessment that has been called on the stock which has a par value of $10 and MT. Bateman says that with good luck he expects they will not need to call subsequent assessments but may provide funds from ore shipments.

The tone of the copper market is again growing in firmness. Quota tions are unchanged, Lake being held at f5 1-2 cents and electrolytic at 15 1-4 cents per pound; but buyers ar emore in evidence. and foreign con sHmers are again taking copper for export. During the past two or three weeks ot comparative dullness none of the smaller producers have shown any disposition to offer prices down, and enquiry demonstrates the fact that almost everybody's production is al ready sold ahead for March and April deliveries.
 It is certain that consumption con- siderabiy exceeded production last year, as stocks of copper are every where smaller than they were twelve months ago. In view of this the in ference is naturally to be drawn that there can be no overproduction this

R. L. Lloyd, superintendent of the reduction division of the c. c. c. Co.,. spent a couple of days in Douglas last week inspecting the smelters of the Copper Queen and Calumet & Ari- zona companies.
