General Whining Rews,

The indications are that this year will record the largest operations in iron ever known. The Lake Superior region predicts an output of 10000, 900 tons of ore and the furnaces are pre- pairing to turn out 2s,OOO,OOO tons of steel. The rail mills already have con- tracts for nearly all they can produce, and structural iron will be used in greater quantities than ever before.
 The great Bunker Hill and Sullivan of Wardner, Idaho, famous all over the world as the mine which was iu- dicially found to have been discovered by jackass, is paying a December dividend of 32O,OO0S. This makes a total of 3,255,0 ,0O0S paid this year and total of 5,526, ,OOOs paid since the dis covery of the property by ''Old Man" Kellogg, Phil O'Rourke and the cele- brated burro, away back in 1885. The property is now the greatest single Silver-lead producer in the world. and in its deepest tunnel it has deposit of galena which is probably unrivaled anywhere. It is controlled by the D. O. Mills interest of New York and San Francisco.-Oregon Mining Journal.
 Mir. Daniel F. Taylor, a veteran min CT and prospector who has long made his headquarters at Ajo, is in Tucson today. MT. Taylor says that things are looking bright at Ajo and that the old camp will soon be booming. The Growler group of mines fifteen miles from Ajo, is being steadily and sue cessfully developed by Boston com pany. A 600 foot shaft is being sunk and large force of men are employed. The mine is showing up splendidly. At Ajo the Rescue Copper Company is doing large amount of development work. The McGahan shelter has three carloads of machinery on the ground, which is being put in place and three more carloads are on the road. It is expected that the shelter will be in full operation in less than three months. Everybody, Mir. Taylor declares, has full confidence in the sue cess of the old camp and predict that in the near future it will be the real mining center of Arizona Tucson Citizen.
 Mark Lulley, the ''Wandering Jew" is about to start out on a search of the lost Detweiler mine, which is supposed to be fabulously wealthy. Practically every business man of any prominence in Nogales is interested in the project and Nogales will be city of million aires shortly-provided the lost mine ! is found. The mines are located in | some canyon in the Santa Rita moun- tains. They were found twenty-six l years ago by Lulley and Detweiler while they were coming from Chitten- den to Tucson. Owing to the pres ence at that time of Apaches, the men travelled along the foothills instead of | the main road. They unexpectedly | came across some old workings and |
  found them rich. They agreed to keep | their discovery quiet. Lulley sold the old Goldtree mine in the meantime for ! 2O,OO0S. Isador Goldtree of this city | was interested in the mine Meantime Detweiler died suddenly and Lulley has never until now, owing to numer- ous mining ventures, found time to search for the lost mines. Neverthe- less he is confident that the canyon will again be found, where gold is to be had in unlimited quantities.-Pros- pector.
