DOES PHELPS-DODGE CO.,.
 CONTROL NEW SHELTER

There appears to be no doubt that the Phelps-Dodge people have control of the Federal shelter. Persons in a position to know say that the rumors which have been in circulation the past few days that the Phelps Dodge com bination had bought the shelter are true and they further assert that the shelter will be changed for the purpose of smelling iron.
 The report out now is that the Phelps Dodge company contemplates the erec- tion of an immense car wheel works in the city provided that tests which are soon to be made prove successful. The company owns land in the vicinity of Morenci which is rich in iron ore. This ore is to be brought to Fl Paso and treated. In the event that it proves to be of the right kind of material the company will as soon as possible put up a plant for the purpose of casting car wheels, axles, etc.
 The company owns large coal fields on it's line north of the city which can be brought to the city at small expense. This solves the fuel question.
 The Southwestern engineering force which has been employed for several months on the preliminary survey for the proposed Las Vegas cutoff has nearly completed it's labors. The cutoff takes route from Dawson. N M., to a point south of Santa Rosa, N. M., passing through or near Las Vegas. - Fl Paso Herald.

FIGHTING MINE FIRES
Good Progress Being Made the United
 Verde Mine

It is estimated that J. J. Shaw is now mastering the fire at the United Verde mine and successfully extracting ore from the fire district He uses com pressed air to drive back the fire and fumes. He has succeeded in reducing the temperature in the breast of the stope, where his men are working, from 125 to 85 degrees. This is surprising per formance and at first glance taxes one's credulity to the limit. But when the system is explained it is simple enough and one wonders why it was not discovered years ago. The air does not extinguish the fire, but simply drives it and it's smoke and fumes back and reduces the temperature along the outer edge of the burning ore so that miners can break down and remove the ore. The process of driving back the fire and fumes can be continued until all the ore within the fire limits shall have been extracted, Enterprise.

rom the Prescott Courier
 T. J. Carrigan, president of the Clara Gold X Copper company, is in from the company's properties in the Bill Will Hams Fork section with a sack of as rich gold bearing ore as was ever brought into Prescott. The gold shows well on the surface of many of the pieces, while others which are also rich in gold are well stained with copper.
 ihe claims are located l2 miles from Wenden, on the line of the A. & C.. railway, the advent of which road has caused miners and prospectors to in- wade a mineral section seldom before vis- ited and but little prospected. Mir. Car rigan has shipped nine sacks of ore to Los Angeles and it is safe to say that it will cause some little mining excite ment when it arrives there and its value becomes known. Mir. Carrigan says that the ledge has been cross cut for 40 feet and there is no wall in sight yet. Five blanket formations of ore have been cut through in this dis tance, each one lying below the other and all are rich in gold. The copper ore comes form the lower ore zone or blanket formation. All the ore has different appearance from he average ores of this section. So far as devel- oped it is certainly remarkable prop prtv

'com the Bisbee Review.
 Henry Collard, president of the Gold Nugget company, was in the city last week from the mine to secure supplies for the mill operating at the property. He stated that three cleanups last month netted total of $l200. Returns from the mill are paying the expenses of development and operation at the property. No stoping is being done, ore coming from drifts that are being run and from new work that is going ahead.
 From the Farley claims on the Dos Cabezos road, half mile from the Nugget, eight tons of ore were recent ly milled which made S32 to the ton. More ore is now being gotten out at these claims for milling and improve ment in the 1S-inch vein leads to the belief that values will gain to $50 a ton. Work of sinking shaft is shortly to commence on the Quillan claims and ore from the shaft is to be milled by the Nugget. From claims belonging to Nelson and Collard, adjoining the Fleece claims of the Nugget, two lots of IA tons of ore each were recently milled One lot returned $22 to the ton and the other $25.
 At the Black Jack property owned by Globe parties, one day recently $l5Ot was cleaned from ore put through tn, crude reduction process. Three shal low shafts have been put down along the vein. All have got ore and the out look is highly encouraging. The shafts are being deepened and the ore coming from them is for the most part bein. sacked. The bulk of it will requir, shelter treatment.

 A. Lafave has shipped car of lead silver-gold ore from his mine near Cliff ton to Fl Paso shelter. If the returns are satisfactory regular shipments will follow in the future.
 c. c. Burger, consulting engineer of the New England & Clifton Copper company, who arrived in camp last week, announces that the company will commence shipping ore about the first of Dec mber A contract will be made either with the Shannon company or the A. c. company for treating the ore. It is the intention of the manage ment to ship 300 to 1000 tons per month. This ore will be brought from the mines to North Clifton where it will be stored in bins to be drawn upon as needed by the shelter. The company expects to be able to ship at profit ore of as low grade as 10 per cent. The general average of the ore on the dump is much higher than that. It is also the intention of the management to at once commence development work on the Antietam, Ohio and Sharpshooter mines situated near Metcalf Ore will also be shipped from these mines, which are situated that they have an outlet via three avenues, either through the Shannon tunnel. the King incline or by wagon road. These mines have made a remarkable showing for the amount of work done and they will soon be heavy producers. MT. Burger also states that the probabilities are that the company will soon commence the erection of concentrating plant.
 From the Clifton Herald
 The Detroit Copper Mining company has just bought number of claims in the district adjoining the Santa Rosa mine near Metcalf and will commence developing them at once. The work done on the Santa Rosa during the past year has done much to develop the claims and it is thought by mining men familiar with this district that these claims will some day prove to be of great value.
