Jury, London, is now on the ground
and is making an exhaustive report of
the various properties which the COM
pany has taken over and is now de-
veloping. Colonel Catlin, one of the
best known mining engineers of New
York, is also examining the property
for New York and Boston investors.
These engineers will form a combina-
ton of ideas for the opening and de-
velopment of the property, and for
treating the ores, etc.
Great Results Expected
On some of the claims parties inter-
ested in the formation of the COM
pany have been prosecuting work for
the past six months, but their plan of
amalgamating such a large number
of claims was kept so we'll from the
public that but few men in the district
knew there was a deal on, hence it
came as a surprise and enabled the
company to secure their holdings at a
most reasonable figure. However, the
people of the district generally well
come the amalgamation, as they real
ize that a pronounced success, except
in rare cases, can only be had by a
company with large capital.
The English gentlemen were simply
astounded that such promising and
valuable properties could be had in
such an old, successful district, but,
as they stated, the same conditions ex-
listed in the Kimberley district of Africa
until that wizard of financial genius
Cecil Rhodes, amalgamated the district
under one management and then by
the judicious expenditure of money de-
veloped the greatest diamond fields in
the world
BY their large holdings they will be
enabled to secure a variety of ores
which is of great advantage in smelt-
ing.
In an interview Senator Dorsey
stated that both himself and asso-
ciates realized that it will require the
expenditure of several million dollars
to put this property upon paying
basis, but there will be no lack OF
money to bring their plans to a sue
cessful termination. They enter the
district with the knowledge that it viii
not only be necessary to develop an6
equip their mines, but also. to builo
railroads to connect their plants anc
mines.

GOLD OUTPUT
IS MARVELLOUS
COMMENTS BY THE DIRECTOR
OF THE MINT
Nevada and Alaska Expected to Double
Production of 1906 During the
Present Year-Figures
Amazing

George E. Roberts, director of the
United States mint:
1.-THE worlds production of gold con-
tinued in 1906 to show large increase.
Three years ago the output was $685.
100000, two years ago $3760O0,000, and
for 1906 it was between $400 900, 900
and $41000O,000. The largest addition,
in recent years, has been made by
South Africa, which, including all dis
tricts, is now producing about $12000,-
900 per month. In the United States,
Nevada and Alaska have made in
creases which will carry the output of
this country close to and perhaps above
$10O,OOOO00. 1t will be the first time the
United States has ever reached that
great figure.
"Outside of this country and South
Africa gains and losses will probably
about Offset each other The Transvaal
has passed it's record of before the war,
and further expansion of the industry
is hampered by the scarcity of labor,
the present administration in England
being opposed to the importation of
more Chinese. However, at the rate of
production reached in the last three
months there will be a gain in 1907 of
S15O00,0O0 over the yield of 1906 1t
VIII probaDly 90 Detter tnan tnatI say
$40, ,OO0 600 in the year.
Nevada Gold Production
"With the new railroads building and
present activity in exploration and de-
velopment, Nevada is certain to show
a very large increase in 1907, perhaps
doubling the 1906 yield, which will be
around 5000 1000 or $12OO0.O0 Alaska
promises further gains in 1907, and
Mexico is in shape to do better every
year for some time to come. 1t is ex-
pected that the Klondike, which has
been on a declining scale for several
years, will hereafter do better, due to
the development dredging. Australia,
which is a large producer. has been
losing about $2,000,0O0 year for three
years. The worlds output in 1907 may
be expected to be between $4,000, 900
and $440, 100000"

ARIZONA COPPER
GROUP BOUGHT
SECURED BY ENGLISH AND
FRENCH CAPITALISTS
Details of the Negotiations Success
fully Closed Through ex-senator
Dorsey, the Cecil Rhodes OF
the Golden West

Details of the big deal in mining
property in Arizona negotiated by ex-
Senator Dorsey of Los Angeles are at
hand. The 100 fine claims in the Cliff
ton Morenci, purchased by the Arizona
Amalgamated Copper company formed
by English and French capitalists, will
be developed on an extensive scale.
Commenting on the sale of the prop
erty the Clifton Era states that the
group OF claims are in the heart of the
mineral belt, but, while many of the
mines have been worked for years and
have large ore bodies ready for stop
ing. the management realizes that it
will be necessary to spend from two
to three million dollars in the pur-
chase price in development and equip
ment of the property and the erection
of a modern plant for treating and
smelling the ores.
The company has been most for
tunate in securing a millsite on the
rolling hills midway between Clifton
and Morenci, which will be near the
Morenci Southern railroad, and in close
proximity to the proposed High-Line
railroad of the Shannon company. The
millsite is about 500 feet above the
Frisco river, from which it will pump
it's water supply. This is considered
only a moderate lift in this district, as
plants and the smelter at Morenci is
elevated about 1900 feet The canyons
below the millsite will afford ample
storage capacity for the tailings for
many years to come. This Is a most
important matter, as suits have been
instituted against some of the older
companies for dumping their tailings
into the river, from which point they
are carried by the flood waters onto
the farms along the Gila river. The
altitude of the millsite above the river
will render it a comparatively easy
matter to build a railroad to the mines
on a level above the flood waters of
Chase creek, which must be reckoned
with in the future.
Strong Financing Company
The company will be mainly financed
by Hudsons Consolidated, Limited, O.:
London, which for years past has been
operating in mines in Africa and Aus
tralia with phenomenal success. Two
directors Of this company. Charles
Crimwade. f. r. G.. S., and X. Martin
visited the properties and expressed
themselves as greatly surprised at the
amount OF development work shown on
some OF the mines. They had ex
pected to find only a string of pros
poets. but instead they found many
mines upon which work had been sys-
tematically prosecuted for many years
Thcir company has been a pioneer In
bringing about many successful ANAL.
