Meteor Mine.

The Phoenix Gazette prints
the following interview with ;
J. HOlsinger:
[ am out in this country on
one of the biggest mining deals
ever undertaken in Arizona. 1t
is nothing more or less than
hunt for meteor that lies
buried hundreds of feet in the
earth. two miles from Canyon
DiablC. and ten miles from the
Santa Fe railroad tracks. The
company | represent has secur-
ed a government patent on 640
acres of land surrounding the
place where the great meteor
entered the earth.
At that place there is a great
depression in the ground, al
most round, and fully a mile
across. and it is here that the
company is now working We
are down 600 feet, but at that
depth we struck water, and will
continue the work with dia
mond drills
Mr. HOlsin9er saws that there
can be no question as to the To-
cation OF the great mass OF min
eraI. as portions Of it have
been found on the ground that
have sold for an aggregate OF
500. 600 The formation OF the
meteor, Judging from these frag-
ments, is of iron, platinum and
nickel Taking into considera-
ton the evident size of the me
teor. the wealth it contains in
the after two metals is beyond
estimation.
The company for which Mr..
Holsinger is acting is the Stand

we'll known in Phoenix, and d
