THE IRISH MAG.

On this property new crack has de- veloped. A rock dropped into this crevice rattles down to depths unde- terminable. into stopes from which the red metal has been extracted.
 Despite the systematic gobbing plan. religiously carried out by the compa- nies, the ground is determined to set tie and these great cracks, the curios- ity of the tenderfoot, are the result.
 In the United Verde, which enjoys the advantage of being dry, stopes ten and twelve sets high by 1e0 feet in diameter were carried empty, with the result that the surface went in, carrying the assay office and three men to destruction. Such lack of discretion is not contemplated for a moment in the Warren district, and the splendid precaution exercised ac' counts for the harmless creases in ma ture's face abounding in the camp and the minimum of fatalities recorded in the district.
 The Irish Mag, the central shaft oi the young wonder system, the Calumet & Arizona. is the center of ever ac cumulating interest.
 From that point the system radiate< in every direction by means of drifts The Mag, of course, is the chief pro ducer, but the younger sisters, sucf as the Lake Superior & Pitsburg, tho Oliver and the Hoatson and the Du |luth are falling into line and increas ing the output Of the company in over whelming volume.
 The two direct action hoists on thu
 Irish Mag represent perhaps as grea capacity as is in evidence at an, shaft in the district and are worked to their full capacity 24 hours a day | The triple decker cages will shortl, give place to four deckers and th'
 c. & A. smelter at Douglas will appre
 ciate the result.

THE SITUATION.
'ston Financial News

"
 Between election and the condition has. been put on speculation that promised so well for the week that is just closing.
 The action of the directors of the Bank of England was taken in the broadest significance. as indicating that New York would be thrown back on its own resources so far as money was concerned and that British aid to any great extent was not to be reckoned on at the present time. A local banker stated that this at- titude of the Bank of England rave Francethe biggest chance she has had for years to be a dominant factor in American finance. but it uss to be doubted if the opportunity would be grasped.
 Opinion is mixed as to just how much the election Is influencing the speculative situation. Some think that conservative geen win not desire to get deeply into the market until such time as the future can be more clearly read.
 Others state that the election is having no effect and that If the press ure was relieved from the general market by the financial situation there would be an immediate upward move ment.
 However. this may be the fact is that copper shares ought not to be affected in the long run. If the radi- cal elements succeed in gaining the election 1t will have no continued ef- feet on the situation. The strength of the copper market is so overpower- ing that it will take more than any state elections to move it. Its day is certain to come and in our opinion this day will happen before the first of the year.
 Metal quotations have been marked down for the past few days. but this only means that no business will be done by the big concerns. Everyone is ultra conservative in making contracts for the future; and even in cases when delivery is only asked for well into the coming year. Copper men state that they are not | making contracts when they do not know where the ore is coming from from which the copper is to be ex. | tracted.
 The big properties that have been making abnormal outputs during the
 past year are all showing a tendency to slacken up in their outputs. Many
 of these properties have used up the
 best part of their high-grade ores dur
 ing the past year believing that the high price of the metal offered them
 an opportunity not to be sneezed al
 to dispose of their metal at record prices.

THE LOWELL.

Here the wandering inquirer after mining information is confronted with q forest of mo admittance signs" and might feel discouraged if he did not know Parker Woodman so well.
 He enters the hoist house the back way, and in compliance with the "get out" sign, emerges at the front door after he has taken all necessary ob- seryations.
 The o. D. hoist brought down from Globe is stretching ribbons out of the Lowell shaft. The grey and black sulphides, as high. grade as anything in the camp, are holding their own and improving with depth. The premises, as has ever been the case under Foreman Woodman. are as clean as a ball room, and the Lowell presents no features out of the ordina- ", but holds it own and gathers inn portance with every foot of develop ment. .Fi.s hfkl

THE OLD AND THE NEW

Contemplation of failures in the mining field impress one with spe- cies of pathos.
 Fortunately these instances in the history of the Warren district are rev and far between." The proposition may apply to the Solomon Springs, but the finale has not yet been deter mined.
 It also reaches the Bisbee West, The Calumet & Bisbee, and the Calumet and Cochise so far as diagnosis or surface premises Is concerned. Yet no one is master of the science Of manipulation, and while crumbling works and rusting smokestacks are calculated to throw one into despend- ent mood, there may be a scheme be- hind all of this which means millions for it's promoters.
 Diamond drill work in this district as in all localities may have laid the foundation for vast system of finan- cil finesse. As a born student of the holy scriptures, it would not be amiss to repeat, No one knows what to- morrow may bring forth"
 The fact has reduced itself to a |crystallized certainty, that while the Warren district has not, and will not evpand the 'metes and bounds" de manded by popular vagaries. it's sub stantial resources have within the last twelve months been developed along legimatmate lines in a manner com mensurate with its immortal reputa tion The quiet, steady, sturdy prog ress of the district constitutes an ob feet lesson calculated to impress the mining and financial world most pro foundiy, and fortunately, if the local mining press can reflect the true con
 ditions, it has done it's community proud

New York, November S.-Irregular- ity and dullness were the features pre- ceding the bank statement. The reading showed considerable pressure and receded over two points, but sub- sequently rallied over three points.
 The bank statement was more or less neutrally regarded by traders, who bought the market after the statement. Short covering was also in evidence in the late rally in such stocks as Union Pacific, Amalgamated, Pennsylvania and New York Central. The close was firm and at about the best of the day.

 ARE PROSPEROUS

This equipment looks forward to the handling of 2,200 tons of ore day by the Calumet & Arizona alone, not counting the ore that the company will handle for the Superior & Pitts burg.
 The management of the Calumet & Arizona is expecting a big increase of ore from the mines of the Superior & Pittsburg and within another year it expects that the company will be sending to the Calumet & Arizona ties of from four to five furnaces

THE HoATsoN.

While still development proposi- tion, the Hoatson is a mine. Out of it's development work alone, it has shipped some 300 tons of high grade copper ore, but has not yet perfected its facilities for stoping and shipping. It is plainly in line with the Gardner. l.. s. & P. and other producers. De- velopment in its case is not venture. but matter of form and preparation. Four boilers are already in commis- sicn. and the old development hoist will shortly give place to standard direct machine, doubtless a Nordberg. that type of hoist having been general ly adopted by the Calumet & Arizona people. ll4

 This is one of the staid and estab- lished c. & A. producers, and shares the ordinary characteristics of every property which has passed the devel- opment stage and become an acknowl- edged winner in the Warren District The litigation surrounding it under the name of the South Bisbee has been unqualifiedly disposed of, and 1t has been listed in the permanent cat egOry of Calumet & Arizona bonanzas.

WALDORF NOTES

New York. November s.-The con- census of opinion Is that the market will continue strong up to the eve of the election, anticipating the defeat of Hearst, but in spite of all this there is good selling of stocks on scale up by people who bought when prices were down early in the week.
 There are good grounds for saying that the long interest are not favora- blc to general activity to the market. while surplus reserves of the banks are so low

THE SPRAY

Copper Queen system it at the collar of the Spray shaft. The recent hoist ing record is an index to the scale on which work is being done in that won derful property. Four decker cages have taken the place of the triple deck CTS recently. The great ribbons slide noiselessly up and down the shaft and the tram-bridge suggests a bee hive when the mesquite is in bloom.
 Several new tanks are in course of construction. tall tram disposes of the waste at a height of some sixty feet, and operations at the old reliable Spray, simply illustrate the irresist- able, gathering tide of mining industry for which the district has been distin- guished for 26 years.

The revival of business in the north end of the district. conspicuously Tn the Modern, the Empire State and Bis bee-Arizona, is matter of congratu- lation.
 Values in that locality are very sim liar to those obtaining in the Tomb stone district, and with the remarka- ble appreciation in copper and the substantial advance in silver, the hope is held out that the district shall soon be redeemed to the good.

As mentioned a few days ago in these columns. the Cochise is steadily working along development lines. The management is extremely con servative in their expressions. which of course is their business. but the de velopment work has not been barren of results. First a stringer of some consequence. and lately a fourfoot ledge having rewarded their efforts.
 Considering its intimate contiguity to the Car and other known produc CTS in the district, a declaration ol failure would have to be substantiated by peculiar evidence

CHATTANOOGA, Nov "A terrific explosion occurred in the yard store room of the Cincinnati and Southern shops here at 1 o'clock this morning, and as a result, one man is dead, one fatally injured, and at least half a dozen others are badly hurt. The store house was entirely destroyed, the coaling station badly damaged and several cars were burned and the windows in the offices and for some blocks were broken.
 This explosion came like a huge thunder clap from clear sky, shaking every structure in the city, On ac- count of the late hour at which the explosion occurred, it is impossible to estimate the property damage. It is also i:anossible to obtain a list of the dead and injured.

The Easter Sunday has obtained its patent, and the company contem- plates a resumption of work on mod est scale toward the end of the year. The Golden Era and the Bisbee Queen may soon be the theaters of develop ment work. That district is distin- guished for the presence of quartz, porphyry and other gold bearing formations on the surface. but is be- Iieved to contain copper with depth.
 Most of the ores in that locality are highly silicous and available for con- yerter lining A revival of interest in that section would be welcomed by score of good men who are heay- fly interested there.

The fact was developed yesterday in Don Luis that the Portage Lake had bonded 15 claims known as the Swede group, and that development work would follow in the course of the transaction.

and has not only been an important producing shaft, but has been the prin- cipal pump station for the Copper Queen system. having the next largest pump in the country. the one of great est capacity being in the Tombstone Consolidated.
 Recently a large precipitation sys- tenn has been installed in the property. where the copper properties are caught on iron of all kinds in the form of sheets. This system extends to Hume. through which the copper i'm pregnated waters How. eventually emptying into the Copper Queen re fuse tanks. Incidentally. this water is acknowledged to contain anti-septic properties and Is undoubtedly calcu- lated to improve sanitary conditions in the great congested camp. which for some time to come will labor under some disadvantages in view of the absence of room.
 The Czar furnished ore nearer the surface than any other Copper Queen property, except the White Tall Deer, at the extreme confine of the system where practically surface chloriding was done in the infancy of the. com pany's operations, where ore was found from the grass roots and the greatest depth attained was 115 feet in an incline shaft.

THE HOlBRoOk.

The collapse and abandonment of the old shaft in the Holbrook is his tory. The ground in this property is wet and creeps perpetually.
 The same conditions obtain in the Spray and in the Old Dominion in Globe, but the merits of the respective propositions render this matter one Of no concern.
 The new shaft on the Holbrook will be about 150 feet south of the old one and on a more solid formation. It will be a three-compartment, with a half compartment for pipes and other facilities. practically a four-compart- ment affair. The work has been pro- jected in the form of raises from every level, and is nearing completion, the engineering work ranking as among the most clever ever performed in the mining world.
 The management expects 10 have the new hoist in operation in the course of sixty days. In this con- nection, the experiment of operating the hoist by electricity will be em- ployed. If successful, as 1t has been in the case of many other properties, it will undoubtedly be extended ito the whole Copper Queen System, and eventually to the entire district.

THE WOLVERINE.

A slightly peculiar condition of af- fairs exists in the Wolverine. Lean ing toward the Shattuck-Arizona this property enjoys unmistakable pros poets, but, evidently to avoid the wa ter problem, the company has put most of it's work in on drifting on the 300 foot level. This drift is over 2000 feet long.
 Just how far they may proceed be- fore reaching their line limit we are not informed, but on the 300 they are not under the lime, and if they fail to get results on that level it should not initiate against the reputation of the property. The drift on the 800 level suspended work some time ago, Dia. mond drill work both from the shaft and from the Shattuck side of the property has been projected, and as to the result. conclusions can only be gathered from the confidence and per sistence displayed by the company in it's operations.

Develop ment has been practically oor1"'etea. the same conditions obtaining as ex- isted in the Gardiner at a correspond ing stage of development. It is evi- dent that the Copper Queen plans to probe the base of the Sacramento mountain, from this. the most availa- ble point.
 A hoisting system of very respecta- ble capacity is in operation and active work may be predicted before the end of the year.

They have three loading tracks on which the steel ore cars stand until they receive their treasure charge to be carried to the furnaces at Douglas. The grea. work which has been so leg1timately performed in the Gardner shaft. has done as much to vindicate the claims of the Warren district to commercial supremacy In the copper world as any other particular detail in the record of the industry In the United States.

rhE OLIVER.


 This is one of the propositions that acutely interests the transient visitor who has been absent from Bisbee for a space. Two brief years ago. 1t was a development shaft. The manage ment planned that at certain depth they would break through the line. At a certain depth they would encounter water. At certain depth they would reach the promised land. and fall in with ore. Their plans and predictions were verified and today the great Nordberg is pulling train loads of high grade copper ore out of the Oliver every week to be sent to Douglas for reduction. At this point the c. & A. has installed its principal compressor plant and electric generator system. Preparations for work on tremend- ous scale are everywhere in evidence about the Oliver. it is already the rival of the Mag in point of capacity and bids fair to become the leader as a producer in the Calumet & Arizona system.
 The tall tram constructed in con- nection with the waste dump at the Oliver is a conspicuous feature in the premises.
