Conner Trust Secures Peace.

A New York dispatch to the Los Angeles Express says: Discussing the transaction completed yesterday by which a majority of the Heinze mines in Montana were taken over by the Amalgamated Copper company, John D. Ryan, president of the Anaconda Copper company and the managing d. rector of the Amalgamated Copper company, last night said:
 By the acquisition of the various properties from the Heinzes there Is nothing left to make trouble or start litigation. The purchase has cleared the entire Montana situation for all time. The Montana copper producers now will be left in a position to pro duce copper cheaper than ever before and more of 1t.
 ''The name of the company which will acquire the various Heinze prop critics has not been selected, nor have e incorporation papers been filed. You can state, however, that the ma jority interests will be friendly to the Amalgamated Copper company and will be in position to arrange all mat ters that must ever cause dispute or conflict between themselves and the latter's subsidiary concerns.
 At the present time the pending litigation covers more than one hun dred suits, involving 5O,OOO,OOOS in claims. In the fight between the rival interests every possible claim was bought, so that there now is nothing left in the disputed area on which lit igation might be started afresh. The purchase of these properties, there fore, includes the settlement of the suits"
 Mir. Heinze, when seen last night, expressed satisfaction over the termi- nation of the war and said the details which were made public during the day in Wall street were correct and that the 25,OO0,00OS which the United Copper company is reported to have received was for the land in dispute and for that land only.
 MT. Heinze said the amount of capi- tai for the new corporation would de pend upon the final determination Oi the operating relation between the amalgamated companies. Everything will be on a cash basis and details ot settlement will be entirely with Thorn as F. Cole and Mir. Ryan of the Ana conda.
 MT. Heinze also said that plans would be laid out on a very large scale for copper operations which would cover much more than the dis puted Butte territory, and that the Butte mountain production would bt expanded to more than 40O,OO0,OOC pounds, or more than 10 per cent O the American copper production.

The Orphan Case Again.

This famous case that has interested the citizens of Clifton and Morenci for the past year, is expected to be tried in the Supreme Court of the United States in April. The Orphanage So- ciety which is to blame for the at tempted outrage upon the citizens of Arizona, in attempting to place the children from their institution with people of little or no education, and less resources for the care of addition al little ones, had retained the present Secretary of State Elihu Root a coun- sel to present the case to the Supreme Court, but his elevation to the Cabinet will necessitate the retaining of new counsel by the Orphanage Society," Morenci Leader.

The attempt of miners to identify rocks in the field without knowledge of photography is almost useless. Only typical rocks can be thus readily de- termined. Granite and syenite may look much alike. Rocks are classified according to the minerals of which they are composed, and the student must first learn to identify these sev- eral minerals unmistakably, and then learn the names of their association. Thus, granite is composed of ortho- clase, mica and quartz. Should horn blende replace the mica, it becomes syenite, and the quartz is not essential. Should the feldspar be plagioclase, in- stead of orthoclaSe, the rock becomes diorite, and the mica is not necessary {; and so on through an almost endless number of minerals, and differenti;- = tion in the names, depending on the addition or absence of certain miner als. Structure is also important in the determination of rocks-whether the groundmasS is crystalline; coarse or fne-grained; composed of glass or not; showing huidal structure, and whether containing good-sized crystals of cer- tain minerals. The study of rocks is a branch by itself, knowledge of which is not indispensable to the prospector, who must search for minerals regard less of their associations and environ ment.-M. & s. Press.

about four miles south of Mayer, and about the same distance north of the properties of the De Soto Mining com pany near Middleton station of the Bradshaw mountain railroad. The inn mensity of the copper deposits of the group has been demonstrated by sci entific development work which has been carried on there for the past four years, and the ore opened up is said to excel in extent and richness any mine in that section of wonderful mineral resources which has been in operation for the same length of time. A wire rope tramway, material for which is now being delivered on the ground, will connect the camp with the Brad shaw Mountain railroad, north of Ce- dar Canyon, and short distance south of Mayer, where the railroad company is now having a switch built at the proposed terminal of the tram, which is similar to the one now in operation at the De Soto mines. Preparations are under way for the installation of hoisting machinery of a sufficient horse power to accommodate mining opera tions to depth of 1000 feet, which has already been ordered from machinery manufacturing concerns, and the deep workings will be fitted with pumps of the very latest and most serviceable pattern. All machinery connected with the enterprise will be run by electricity furnished by transmission lines l9 miles in length running from Humboldt to the properties of the De Soto company, which will pass through the camp, and the general plan of ar engagements and appointments of the place as contemplated by the new management will be as nearly auto matic as possible and calculated to meet the demands of mining operations on large scale in an economic man. ner.-Prescott Journal-Miner.

Shelter to Be Built on the Pacific
 Coast.

A San Francisco special of February 14th says: The Guggenheims and Rockefellers, through their recently formed American Shelters Secureties company have decided to build a B. 5OO,O shelter at a point a mile back from Point Costa and ground will be broken for the big establishment early next summer.
 The old Selby shelter on the bay shore few miles beyond West Berke- ly will be abandoned when the new shelter is completed. Fumes from the Selby plant have been for years pois- oning the surrounding vegetation and farmers have suits for damages pend- ing against that plant on that account. It is said the new plant will have a location that will not give rise to such damage suits in the future,
 It is said by some of the interested people that the building of a big shelter close by this city will un- doubtedly be followed by the estab- lishment of copper-manufacturing plants in San Francisco and the pre- diction is made that within two years copper wire and other copper products will be manufactured here.

A Big Bond.

One million and seventy thousand dollars was the amount of the bond filed in the district court in the cele- brated Zeckendorf-Steinfeld case yes- terday. This is probably the largest bond in the history of this judicial dis trict, if not in the territory.
 It was supersedeas bond for the previous one filed by Albert Steinfold. His bond really is half that amount, 535,OOOs. But on the petition of the plaintiff in the case, pending the ap- peal to the supreme court, the sure ties have to swear in twice the amount of the bond.-Arizona Star.

One of the heaviest mining deals re- corded in this county of late, and which means much for the prosperity of this section, as well as further evidencing the great confidence which mining investors, who have carefully investigated our resources, have in the immense wealth hidden within the rock ribbed crevices of our mountain ranges, was consummated a few days ago, when the title to the Blue Bell group of mines passed into the control of the Arizona Exploration company, a corporation composed principally of the stockholders of the Arizona Smelt- ing company, which is constructing the immense smelting plant at Hum- .boldt. The mines are situate in a spur of the Bradshaw mountain range,

Mr.. John c, Nicholson passed away
at $50 o'clock yes erday morning at
sanitarium in Atlanta, where for some
time he had been under the care of
physicians. In view of his recent Ill
ness the announcement of his death
was not at ell unexpected here
Since Saturday his condition had
been regarded as very critical.
His two brothers were already at his
bedside, while other friends had been
summoned as we'll Mr.. Nicholson
fully realized his condition, end until
near the end was entirely conscious.
In the death of John G. Nicholson
Americas sustsins the loss CT a good
citizen; one who in quiet and ur o.
tentatious way had done his full psrt
towards the advan cement and upbul'd-

his life were spent.
And hundreds there are who deeply
deplore his death.
Since youth in his teens he had re-
sided here and witnessed the growth of
Americus from a village to city, hav-
ing long been identified with It's COM
mercial interests.
He was native of Webster county,
coming here young man seeking en-
ployment He found it readily and
from this humble beginning built up
successful mercantile business, retir-
ing therefrom several years ago to look
after other interests.
These were alike successful and he
thus amassed competency.
Mr.. Nicholson never sought public

his own affairs. He served two terms
as police commissioner, and was for
long number of years a director in the
Bank of Southwestern Georgia.
The deceased was fity-fve years of
age and is survived by two brothers
and sister, these being the nearest of
numerous relatives. He was q member

Sheriff Bell UnraveIs the Plot and
Negroes Confess Scheme to Get
Away-WiIl Be Prosecuted for De
stroying Public Property

But for the shrewdness of Sheriff
Bell in unrsvsling prisoners plot TO
escape, several of Snmter's jsiIbirds
might have fitted afar with the dawn
yesterday. But the scheme was dis
covered, and oil the prisoners are sefe
behind the grated doors.
And the riagIeaders WILL pay for the
part they took in it.
Bunks were torn up, and chains and
bars thus secured wherewith to force
the outside windows when night cam
on and the prisoners thus had better
chance to get away.
Jaller Covipgtop, late Sunday after
noon, found out what the prisoners
were up to and notified sheriff Bell,
the two officers then making a full
investigation. One of the prisoners,
when pinned down to braks tacks, told
the story Of the effort to fly.
This prisoner pointed out the others
in the plot, among them George
Broughtop, the convicted murderer
now under sentence of death.
The plot, had it not been discovered,
might have worked successfully, al
though this is doubtful, ss the county
castle is hard place to leave except by
the open door and an acquittaI, Very
few hav9 evsr left the coop otherwise.
The negroes who tore up the hunks
will also be vigorously prosecuted for
destroying property.
