COCHRAN CANNOT
 HEAR SOUTHERN CASE

 Is Virginia Corporation.

Meridian, Miss. October 2.-(SpeciaD. Judge Cochran and the circuit court were practically enjoined from proceeding with the trial of the case of Mrs. Flor ence Lafarge against the Southern rail- way, when her attorneys were served with injunction papers preventing their appearing in said court in connection with said case.
 Mrs. Lafarge sued for s35.OOO damages for the alleged killing of her husband by the railroad, her petition setting forth that the railroad was a Mississippi cor poration. The railroad attorneys asked for a transfer of the suit to the United States court. alleging that the Southern was a Virginia corporation doing busi- ness in Mississippi and the circuit court had no jurisdiction.
 Judge Cochran refused to permit the transfer, and Federal Judge Niles was asked for an injunction as above, which was granted. The case of the injunction will be heard in the March federal court An attorney for the plaintiff stated that no attempt would be made to try the case in the circuit court, as he did not desire to invite sojourn in the county jail for alleged contempt

THREE PARTIES HAVE BEEN IN BENSON WITHIN THE PAST
 GO DAYS INVESTIGATING.

The Tombstone Prospector says: Three parties have been in Benson within the past sixty days investigat ing the smelter, and it is probable that one or the other of the three parties will decide to take the smelter over and operate it. All the men who have visited the proposition have looked very thoroughly into the matter and have gone away with the impression that is favorable.
 Doan Merrill, cashier of the Bank of Benson, who is in charge of the af. fairs of the Southwestern Smeltine and Refining Company in Benson, he Heves that the smelter will be started within the next six months at the very most. placing this time as a conserv- ative estimate
 The plant of the Southwestern Smelting and Refining Company in kept in good shape at all times, SC that in case some of the eastern par ties who are guring on the proposition decide ito take 1t over and operate it it will be able to begin operations with the minimum of delay.

TO BUILD NEW
 ,.- CUSTOMS SHELTER

MAzATLAN. May, 10.-Epes Ran ..clph, r-esideat of the CanaleG., Yaqui River < Pacific rail- cad, and the man in charge of the Guaymac- GuadalajaTa extension of the Southern ITdcific, will obtain from the s naloa g, vernment concession for a custom sGelier in this city. All arrange ments for the concession have been made. MT. Randolph represents cap italists who will spend, it is said, more than S,0C0,000 in the construction of the smelter. It was reported recent ly that the w. c. Greene interests would apply for a concession for a GUS tom smelter in Mazatlan, but it is rumored that Mir. Randolph represents capitalists other than the Greene crowd.
 The construction of the Guaymas- Guadalajara extension of the Southern Pacific will make possible the opera ticn of a custom smelter here. Ores will be brought to this port over the new line from mines both north and south. It is regarded as probable that the long-contemplated extension of the International railroad from Du- rango to MazatlGn will be built soon.
 It is reported that the w. c. Greene interests, which recently took over the concession for a shelter in Guaymas, have started work on the plant and will rush it to completion.

NEW CUSTOM SHELTER
Five Hundred Ton Plant for PinaI County Will Open
 Rich Country,
PRICE STATION
 WILL BE LOCATION.

A 500-ton smelter is to be built at Phice's Station on the Phoenix & East ern Railway, ten miles east of Flor ence. and at the junction of the Gila and San Pedro rivers in Pinal coun- ty, Arizona.
 Mir. J. H. McCabe. of Phoenix, is at the head of the enterprise and is backed by associates in Los Angeles, New York and Boston who, it is stated have guaranteed capital to the extent of s1 100000.
 Contracts for machinery and mate rial have been placed in this city, and it is expected that the first shipments will begin to move within sixty days, when the new concern will be in the market for ores.
 It is stated by MT. McCabe that the section in which the smelter will be located, is one of the richest in gold, silver and copper in Arizona. The ores are for the most part self-fiuxing, are on the average high-grade and oc- cur in strong, wide veins. The site of the shelter is we'll selected as to transportation facilities. The new Southern Pacific cutoff will pass through the property. to which also runs spur from the Santa Fe tracks.
 The Florence Smelling, Milling & Mining company has been formed to take over the enterprise, which was started some months ago with a small experimental plant. The company will also develop and work the Mineral Hill group of mines, the Grace, Blue Belle, Alice and other properties in the district
 On the shelter site there is abun- dance of iron and lime for fluxing purposes, should such be required.

CALUMET & ARIZONA
 IS IN GOOD DEMAND.
(sy Frank J. oraf.)

BISBEE. May 10s--Today's market did not show any. particular activity one way or the other, although there has ibeen considerable trading and considerable stock had been offered somewhat over the market. but prices would not hold. Calumet & Arizona has been in good demand during the day and Is being sought after by con seryative men at SIP in anticipation of the dividend that Is forthcoming. Calumet & Pittsburg held well around s2e to s29.50. while at the close was offered at s29. Junction also weak ened and at the close was offered al s25.50 and looked as though bid of $2525 would have brought some out.
 Butte Coalition took on little strength as well as North Butte, which reached it's highest point today. Looks like s10o for North Butte. Denn-Ari- zona weakened somewhat and had been offered at s14.50. Shattuck is in demand at s3S.5o.

QUESTION AND ANSWER
Stockholder Writes Boston News Bureau Relative to ,t Greene Consolidated.
PRESENT INTENTION IS
 TO MAINTAIN DIVIDENDS.

The Boston News Bureau in answer ing a question regarding the value of Greene Consolidated stock has the fol- lowing:
 No. 913. Long Beach, Cal, April 25, -06
 am still holding on to~500 shares of Greene Consolidated and ask you If you would advise me to accumulate any more at the present prices, as understand from various sources that there is disposition to send Greene up to 40.
 With this information l am inclined to increase my holdings to 1000 shares, but will await your answer 70 this. .
 Answer-Since the writing of your letter Greene Consolidated has de- clined to below S27 per share. This as you doubtless know, has been the result of the extreme weakness of the New York market which has naturally had a sympathetic effect on Boston copper shares.
 It is the present intention of the company to maintain dividends at the bi-monthly rate of 40 cents per share irrespective of the price of copper. As you are doubtless aware, on a high copper market, the management treats lower grade ore than 1t does on a low copper market, and in this man. her is able to equalize earnings and maintain them at about s250,000 per month which is at the rate of 8 per share per annum.
 We believe that Green Consolidated is an improving proposition not only from the standpoint of larger produc- tion, but from the standpoint of lower operating costs. and so long as copper remains at IS cents per pound, we be- lieve you can safely invest in its Gi,h,ares cu a scale dcwn from s27 per share.
 Should the metal break in price, Greene Consolidated would suffer with the balance of the copper list, but the decline should be less marked than in 20 per cent of the dividend paying copper stocks. .

VIM. MILL WILLIAMS
 FINAL COUNTY MINES

Wm. Mill Williams, Globe mer- chant, went to Kelvin the fore part of the week and met there couple Of eastern mining men who had been in town several days awaiting his arrival fer the purpose Of looking over some mining property owned by him which is located about 10 miles southwest of Kelvin and IS miles east of this city in Pinsl county.
 This mine was located many years ago as a silver mine and was at that time called the Ray. It carried high percentage of silver and copper, but as consequence of the fall in the price of silver, it was abandoned and laid idle until Mir. Williams relocated it. He is a practical miner and man who thoroughly understands copper ores. and he has spent considerable money in developing the property, and the outlook now is for one of the largest and best copper producers in Pinai couuty.-F1orence Blade.

In an article on the mining opera tions of Phelps. Dodge & O., in Ari- zona and New Mex1co, the American Metal Market of New York figures that they will-exclusiye of custom ore treated-turn out during the pres ent year a total of 10000, 900 pounds Of copper. Here are the figures:

The contemplated in crease at Old Dominion has been spoken of, and will make the year's S average about 3,500,000 pounds per mouth.

LAKE COPPER SHARES
 SELLING WAY DOWN

BOSTON, May 10.-The Lake Copper shares are selling at remarkably low levels. In fact the price registered during the present week would lead one unacIuainted with the present flush conditions of the metal market to believe that the demand for the metal was so slack that the companies we're piling up reserves for which they could find no buyer.
 On the contrary, the copper compa- nies are bare of metal, and there are but few mines that are not making money. There would seem to be no time so opportuue as this for those who desire to invest in Lake shares 10 take advantage of the situation.
 The action of the copper shares is .habitualy slow, but their day will again come in the future just as 1t has always come in the past. When it does come it will find the Lake us- sues intrinsically bettered from 40 per cent to 50 per cent from one year ago.
 Those properties that have been do- ing continued development work have all had good results, and are sending increased tonnage to the mills, while those that have made steady increases fH NeAHSS nave III many cases ulScOV- cred new mineral deposits which have Inerited higher prices for the stock.
 Among the dividend paying Lake stocks it is pointed out that larger returns are to be secured than by pur- chasing any other class Of securities On the list.
 Those who are well acquainted with the position that the Lake companies are in have been buyers of the shares on all marked recessicns.
