(Globe Silver Belt)

A further substantial advance of mining operations was recorded during he past week in the Globe district, establishing more surely Globes claim o beisg the most active and prosper ous mining camp in the southwest. Reports from every part of the dis tTict are very encouraging, ore ship mentS have increased materially and all new companies are either pushing development work or making prepara- tions for an early start of operations.
 The encountering of the hanging wall in crosscut No. on the 14th level of the Old Dominion mine after passing through eighty feet of high grade sulphide ore was naturally the most important development of the week. The completion of the Arizona Commercial railroad was finally re- corded during the week and ore ship ments to the Old Dominion smelter from the Black Hawk mines will be- gin tomorrow Work has again been resumed at the mine and at the Great Eastern of the Superior and Boston, a delay being caused by shortage of fuel oil.
 Another strike of sulphide ore is recorded from the Gibson mine and the showing of pyrites in the shaft on the Mineral Farm, owned by the Globe Mining company, has increased, the entire bottom of the shaft at a depth of 195 feet showing pyrites dis seminated through the diabase.
 Operations will begin this week at the old silver mines of McMillen after a lapse of almost a quarter of cen. tury. by the McMillen-Stonewall com pany, recently formed, and an early beginning of operations is anticipated of the Cananea-Arizona Consolidated company on the Collins-Doyle-Trojano- yich groups adjoining the Black Hawk and Superior and Boston. The first strike of ore in the Gem shaft of the Globe Consolidated is not far distant
 Old Dominion Mine.
 The development of the Old Domin' ion 14th level sulphide ore body has been watched with great interest, moi only in Globe. but in mining circles throughout the east and north, and in terest changed to astonishment as the width and richness of ore was re vealed from week to week in crosscut No. 2.

Last Thursday night the hanging wall was reached. and by actual meas urement it was shown that the ore body was eighty feet wide. The grade of the ore from the footwall to the hanging wall varies from per cent to over 40 per cent, being leanest on the footwall and richest on the hang ing, the average of the entire eighty feet being probably better than 15 per cent.
 J. Parke Charming, one of the most eminent of mining engineer, and Wal ter Harvey Wood, a geologist of na- tional repute, accompanied by other engineers of the Lewisohn syndicate, visited the mine Friday and pro nounced the ore body to be a most re- markable one. All agree that the ore should go down from 300 to 800 feet deeper, as it is apparently almost the top of the re-cnrichment zone and the fact that the hanging wall has a much greater pitch than the footwall demon strates that the ore body grows wideT win depth.

Superintendent Berray thinks that the ore shoot will extend west proba. ply 300 feet, the distance to the next cross fault. and he expects to strike another area of enrichment 150 feet further to the east of No. crosscut With greater depth a loss of copper value and an appreciable increase in sulphur. which is more desired by the company, is epected.
 Plans of the management for deep CT development contemplate the sink ing of a two-compartment shaft from the 14th level to a depth of POO feet It will be sunk in the country rock from without the footwall and is to be equipped with an electric hoist and balanced cages. From the 18th level drift will be run to point below the main shaft, which will be opened 10 the 18th by an upraiss.
 Ore from the 14th. level, which is being sent to the smelter, has raised the average furnace charge to 10 pei cent copper. The four furnaces are turning out 100 to 500 bars of bullion

ly before attained a considerable pro- duction. The Reilly lease, although on the Florence ground, was worked as a separate mine, and added about S475,000 to the production of the dis trict in less than two months time.
 The Bullfrog district described in this report lies 50 miles south-south- east of Goidfield and about 20 miles northeast of the great trough of Death Valley The principal town is Rhyolite The other towns in the dis trict are Bullfrog and Beatty Work in the district up to the end of the year 1905 had been confined mainly to prospecting and to blocking out ore. The MontgOmery-Shosho mine is said to have shipped about 100 tons of rich ore, the original Bullfrog about 13 tons, and the Denver at the begin ming Of the year 1906 had shipped 1000 sacks. As all ore at the time the Survey members visited the dis trict had to be hauled by wagons 10 Goldfield or Las Vegas, the general tendency among the mine owners was to delay shipping until the en- trance of a railroad should afford better facilities.
 The study of the general geology of the Bullfrog district was made by MT. W. H. Emmons and MT. c. H. Carey. The rocks in the main are tertiary lavas intricately faulted and tilted. All of the ore thus far mined or opened up is more or less oxidized and in most cases contains no sul- phides. The ores, as sacked. range from S1OO to S700 ton, but the de- posits on the whole are much lower in grade than those at GoIdfield. It is evident that the future prosperity of the camp must depend upon the successful working of ore much infe- rior in grade to that sacked for ship ment under present conditions.

Commenting on the annual report of the Calumet & Arizona and the Su- perior & Pittsburg companies MinGear G Co. say in their weekly letter on the market:
 The annual report of the Calumet S Arizona and Superior & Pittsburg companies are such as should not only inspire the greatest of confidence in the present management of both prop critics. but also should be highly en- couraging to the holders of the stock in either company. The report of the Calumet & Arizona is particularly gratifying and is even better than was expected. That of the Superior & .Pittsburg does not come up to the hopes of the most optimistic. but clear. ly shows that the company is enc oi immense possibilities.
 The surplus of the Calumet & Ari Zona is surprisingly large when it is considered that 1t paid during the year 1906 four dividends of s13, per share, a total of s2,600.0 900. Despite this dis bursement the annual report shows an

Fall Sheep Inspection.

About September l, according
TO DR.. Mcclure, the inspectors will
commence upon general rein
spection of the bands of the state.
Should scab be found among sheep
pastured upon forest reserves the
owners will be required to dip
twice, Immediately. Should scab
Be found among sheep not on re-
serves, the fact will be reported to
the state sheep inspectors Office,
which will handle the matter.
Since the sheep were dipped in
accordance with the state law the
federal men have not been requir-
ing that all sheep for shipment be
dipped. Instead, the bands are
merely inspected and if found to
be unaffected and not recently ex-
posed are allowed to go. This
course according to DIR. Mcclure,
will now be followed regularly,
and in consequence the sheep
market will benefit to that extent.
Previous to the annual dipping all
sheep intended for shipment out
side the state had to be dipped be-
fore they could be loaded, whether
actually affected with the scab or
not.
That the general dipping cru
sade on this spring in conforming
with the state law will practically
rid the state of the scab is believed
by DR.. Mcclure. In his judge
nent there will be but little scab
left after this fall, and next splipg
only isolated dipping will be
necessary. Under the sheep law
it is possible for the sheep COM
to suspend the annual
dipping provisions should the con-
aitions justify.

Increased Pay for Army.

Washington. Aug. l3l.-Increase in
pay OF tn Army. but no increase IN its
size is the compromise which has been
reached between the President aud
leaders in Congress who control legisla-
ton. The President has given his
hearty approval to the plans of the
Army which included both increases.
but after consulta tions and conferences,
it has been decided that it will be i'm
possible to do more at the next session
of Congress than to secure an increase
in pay for the Army. Immediately
upon convening bills will be introd uced
in the Senate by Mr.. Dick, of Ohio. and
in the House by Representative Capron.

ment which has been reached.
These bills will provide for an in
crease OF 10 per cent in the salary of

for majors and brigade generals, 20 per
cent for colones, lieutenant. colonies
and majors, 25 per cent increase for
captains and lieutenants and 80 per cent
increase for non-commissioned officers
and privates. 1t is thought that such
a measure will become law.

TwO-Cent Fare For Kansas.
Topeka, Kan, Aug. 31.-The Stat

Topeka, Kan, Aug. 31.-The State
Railroad Commissioner, acting on a
suggestion from Governor Hoch, filed
BY its attorney, has ordered the various
Kansas lines to put the fat 2.cent pas
senger fare into effect, and the COM
panies will obey at least until the courts
OF Nebraska and Missouri shall have
passed on their own laws.
The Governor sent letter to the
Commissioner pointing out that, under
an act of the late Legislature, it had
full power to order in fiat 2-cent fares,
il it found that such rates were not
eonfscatory. He held that, because
Nebraska and Missouri were enjoying
e-cent maximums, Kansas should have
the same figure. He made it plain, if
these rates were not ordered by the
Border and compiled with by the COM
panies, he would call the Legislature
IN special session to pass a fat 2-cent
law. Mr.. Grsttan, attorney of the
Commission. is at Omaha, securing evil
