MINERS FIGHT FATAL STREET DUEL
Men Employed in the Old Do minion Mine Battle to Death
 With Six-ShooterS.

As a result of a dual fought late Saturday afternoon in Globe between George Melich and Meile Vukmano- ich, both Montenegrins, the former lies dying and the latter is in hiding. trying to evade the consequences Of his act.
 The duel was fought with revolvers on the Black Warrior road. The men, both of whom are miners in the employ of the Old Dominion, had been drinking and Quarreling all day, and several times open hOstilities were only avoided by the efforts of friends who kept the two men apart.
 Melich was of a quarTelsome na- ture. So much so that those who knew him best avoided him when he was in his cups. He bantered VUkmano- vich several times during the Gay to "get his gun and come on." saying that if he did not do so he would kill him anyway. Patience at last teasing to be d virtue. Nukmanovich agreed to the battle.
 Melich drew first and fired five times before his assailant got in a shot. But his aim was bad and all of his shots went wide of the mark On the contrary. Vukmanovich's aim was particularly good, for he brought down his man at the first fire. Vukmanovich is in hiding. He makes mistake in this. for he prejudices his case by doing so when the facts are so much in his favor. Sentiment among the cOuntrymer of the two men involved. as well as an eng Slavonians generally. takes the side of Vukmanovich. Melich. to put i il mildly. was regarded as rather g | bad pill.
 Both men have been about veal i in this country. They went to Globe 1 from Bisbee.

WARREN 4 BARGAIN
 AT PRESENT PRICES
Small Details Worked Out, and Waiting for President
 HovIand.

Say. what's the matter with War ren, anyway" asked local trader in Warren district stocks as he tilted his chair back against the wall in a local brokerage office and took a squint at the markings opposite Wal rer Realty & Development Co.,, which showed II 3-S
 That has been the question going the rounds during the past two weeks. The Review has made inquiry into the affairs of Warren and with the eX- ception of some unavoidable delays, We are in a position to state that the plans for Warren Realty and Develop ment Co.,, while slow of fulfiilment, have not been abandoned or Obstruct- ed in any manner. and just as soon as some minor details can be buttoned up, the hopes of the stockholders and the community in general will be req Bzed.
 It was first the intention of the company. according to reliable source of information. to proceed with the sale of lots in the new townsite before all of the small matters had been consumated. such as electric lights. water system. sewerage system graded streets and street railway. but at later meeting of the directors of the company it was decided that the best plan to pursue would be to make haste slowly in the opening Of the townsite, until the smallest details had been worked out and this is the policy that is being carried out at present.
 The Review learns that these de tails of municipal Improvements have at last been consumated. The right of way for the street railway from Bisbee to Warren has been secured from the Copper Queen company. and upon the arrival of President H. R. Hovland in the city during the course of the next ten days, there will be something doing in Warren.
 In the meantime the shaft on the Chicago claim has been equipped and is being sunk without delay. Diamond drills are al work exploring the ground in that locality and Il is re. ported at the general offices of the company tha. the formation already encountered is highly satisfactory.
 When the street railway company in conjunction with the Warren Realty and Development company, is organ. ized, The Review expects to have some good news for the Warren stock, holders. A little more patience will see Warren coming to the front and and The Reviews advice is to hold on to your Warren stock and don't let any -55tSi 55tSi1r---Ss.S~az- go begging.

NORTH BUTTE.

North Butte has been singularly un- responsive to the developments which are going forward at the property. or course the fact that the dividend was not increased is partly responsible for this, but this can hardly be construed as a bear argument. for every dollar that is saved from net earnings and put back into the property will bring back rich returns later on.
 When the company was hoisting on- ly 1000 tons of ore day It could easily show earnings of SIP share. Now the daily tonnage is fast being in creased to fifteen hundred tons. This will not, it is true, bring proportion ate increase in the earnings. as low CT grade will probably be treated. but it should increase the income by 3O per cent.
 In the meantime development under ground is going steadily on, and splen- did ore reserves are ping blocked out, jn the Jassie The 1900 is in very high class ore ana the IIOo IS fully as favorable. Then it should be remembered that almost all the work has been limited to the original claims, the additions, which are larger than the original body, having scarcely been touched.
 If the price of the shares does not soon advance, we shall have the spec tacle of a stock earning Sl6 or Slf selling at 92.

NEW YORK, Aug. 29.-The scare caused by the Philadelphia failure seems to be over. and we will see the market rally for the next three days, so as to have them strong over the hol- idays.
 The Range dividend failed to cause any excitement as it was generally ex- pected. It will keep the stock strong and the next dividend in December will lift it over sS5.
