PINAL COUNTY
MINE REPORTS
Florence Blade Tells About the
Various Properties and
Their Progress,
(Florence Blade.)

VIM McGrew and Joe Schwartz
were down from their Mineral Hill
camp Monday, after load of supplies.
Their mining property upon which
they are pushing development work,
looks better with every foot OF work
done and there is now little doubt
that they viii have a bonanza.
C. G. Werner sent a force Of miners
up TO Box canyon this week to per-
form the annual assessment work on
the Arizona King and the Arizona
Blade mines. These are gold proper
ties OF demonstrated merit They have
been prospected to a depth Of 100 feet
and show good gold values all the
way down.
The Pinal King Gold Mining com
pany, whose properties are situated on
Mineral creek, this county, has let q
contract to fred Pike and Dick Bern-
don for development work. One OF
the properties is situated south OF Ray
aud the other a short distance north
of KelinT. The latter property con-
sists OF gold prospects which carry
good values and should become good
productive properties when developed.
Postmaster G. II. Niemeyer left this
week for Cottonwood with force Of
miners to perform the annual assess
ment work on his gold claims, situated
on the east side OF the Cottonwood
wash. These are very promising prop
critics and have been developed to a
considerable extent. In addition to
their gold values, they carry large
per cent of wulfenite, which is rich
in lead and rnoIybdfc acid
Col. Griffey, general manager OF the
Alta Mining company OF Mineral Hill,
was a visitor at Florence this week,
and the Blade learned from him that

new drill plant and hosting and
pumping machinery are all ready for
operation. Some Of Col. Griffey's
stockholders desired to follow the ex-
ample Of the majority Of our mining
companies and close down during the
financial stringency, but Col. Griffey
could not see any sound business judg-
ment in such a proposition and decid-
ed TO continue operations at the Alta
group.
The Saddle Mountain Mining COM
pany, whose great copper property is
situated partly at Christmas and, part
ly in the Saddle Mountain district,

leyyille, filed with our county recorder

1t Is Reported That They Have
Gone to Consult Mexican
Officials Regarding
Mono Scale
GREENE CONSOLIDATED
PRESIDENT IN PARTY
Population of La cananea Is
Now Estimated To Be
Two Thousand.

A party Of Greene-Cananea officials
left Cananea hurriedly Sunday after
noon for trip TO Hermosillo. The
party Included w. G. Greene, vice
president OF the Greene-Cananea com
pany; Or. L. D. Ricketts,, general man
ager of the company at Cananea and
VIM. Thornton, president OF the old
Greene Consolidated company. Mrs.
". c. Greene and children were also
members OF the party which was tray-
cling in the private car Verde
No Information was given out re-
sarding the object of the visit Of Can
anea mining men TO Hermosillo but
it is understood that matters Of an
official nature between the Greene
Cananea company and the Mexican
officials at the capital Of the state
was the occasion of the visit.
During the past few weeks Dr..
Ricketts, has made more than one Wis
il to Hernlosillo and it is no longer a
secret that one of the important. sub
jects which Is in course of adjust
ment between the Greene-C ananea
and the government Of Sonora. is the
new wage scale which is to be paid
TO Mexican employees upon the re-
sumption of operations at the big
copper camp across the border.
The directors of the Greene-Can-
anea have already decided upon a re-
duction of wages to be paid, when pro
duetion is resumed, but the exact
scale to be applied is still undecided.
Il has been apparent to the manage
ment of the Greene-Cananea for some
time, that in order for the company
TO continue operations at the compar
atiVely low price of copper, it would
be necessary to materially reduce the
cost of operations. 1t is now under
stood to be the plan of the company to
extend the curtailment OF expenses TO
every branch OF the business; at the
reduction plant, in the mercantile de-
Partment, and the wages paid at the
mines for the past year.
When Cananea again resumes pro
ruction, it is the belief now, these
production viii be in full force and
effect.
The Mexican government has a
great deal to say as to what the
wages shall be for Mexicans employ
ed by mining companies in Mexico
and it is reported that this question
IS now one Tor adjustment and the
trip of the Greene-Cananea officials
to Hermosillo on Sunday is said to
be for this purpose.
Work Of remodelin gthe smelter is
going steadily ahead, but the ship
ment OF the supplies of coal and coke
on hand at Cananea, to other mining
districts in southern Arizona, does not
indicate that the Greene-Cananea in
tends to resume production IN the
iul1coidtc iuEulO' HETUED
Gus T5IS5T Is floating floating around The
time for resumption is 9drioIsly
placed at sixty days, six months and
nine months, but the fact is nobody
knows for certain when the time will
ne, not even the Greene Canauea Of
hcials themselves.
1t is estimated that the population
Of La Cananea is now approximately
1900, as compared to $4,000 six months
ago, but the business men and prop
erty owners at Cananea, are not pes
siulistic in regard TO the situation.
They know that La Cananea is to be
bigger and better than ever when
ork is again resumed.

START OVER AGAIN.

Boston.-A leading business man
says: 1T is remarkable situation
when In few months business men
and capitalists and financiers have
lost what they have made In the last
five or six years.
Il think it is fact that most men
of wealth stand today in the same
position they occupied five or six
years ago. They have lost their prof
its of these six years in Few months
and very few OF them could foresee
the present situation of affairs. We
shall all have to start over again"

BELIEVED DRUNK;
FOUND TO Be DEAD
Staegers Into Saloon, Takes a Few
Drinks and Falls to the Floor.
Taken to Station In Pa
troll Wagon

An unidentified man, gray, wrinkled
and apparently 70 years old, dropped
dead i'm Martin Slglie's saloon, 639 East
Third street, last night.
He was thought to be only in a drum
ken stupor, and the barkeeper called
the patrol to take him to the central
police station. There he lay on the
floor, immovable, lifeless for a long
period while the driver of the patrol
was searching a number of prisoners
before the sergeant's desk.
Someone remarked about the peculiar
position in which the old man lay on
the floor in a cramped heap and inert,
but no further attention was paid to
him. Finally when he was ordered to
get up and made no response Police
Surgeon Freedman was called to eX-
anime him, and pronounced him dead,
in which condition the surgeon said
he had evidently been for an hour or
more.
The old man had a slight laceration
above the left eye, but there was no
injury to the skull, and the police sur
geons stated that the bruise over the
eye was not serious enough to have
caused death, having apparently been
made by a fall. His death was at
tributed to alcoholism or heart failure.
The barkeeper of the saloon in which
the old man dropped dead stated that
the deceased had staggered into the bar
weakly, procured a few drinks and sud-
IDENTIFY reeled backward to the floor.
Thinking him only heavily intoxicated
several men lifted him into rear room
and sent for the patrol.
The body was taken to the morgue of
Pierce Bros, where it will remain
several days for identification.

PAIL MALL GAZETTE
DEPLORES LANGUAGE
USED BY GOVERNOR
BY Associated Press.

LONDON, Jan. 21-Referring to the
withdrawal of the American Warships
from Kingston the Pail Mall Gazette
this afternoon says that the Language
employed by Governor Swettenham
would be difficult to justify in almost
any circumstances"
At the same time the paper says it
thinks lit is possible that a praise
worthy desire to do his utmost in the
cause of humanity pushed Admiral
Davis beyond the necessities of the case
and led him to encroach too far upon
the sphere of British authority"
The Pail Mall Gazette assumes that
both the admiral and the governor Were
animated by the best of motives, and
adds 'Englishmen certainly do not
wish the misunderstanding to be mag
nifed in any sense of pique, and the
American public ought to be broad
minded enough to regard it with the
same charitable disposition"
The Westminster Gazette says there
can be nothing hut regret at the fact
that any difficulty has arisen between
Admiral Davis and Governor SWetten-
ham, and while awaiting fuller eX-
PLANTATION adds:
IN the meantime the United States
can be assured that we i'm this country
deeply appreciate the generous, SYM
pathetic way in which its citizens
volunteered assistance to the British
colony"

IN FREIGHT RATES
Interstate Commerce Commission In.
vestigates Conditions In Colorado,
and Witnesses say Dis
elimination Exists
Rv Assnclated Press.


DENVER. Jan. 21.-Interstate Com
merce Commissioners Prouty began in
Ivestigation here today of alleged viola
tions of law by railroads Affecting
Denver and other Colorado points,
Three railroads are under investiga-
tion. The complainants allege violation
of the interstate commerce acts which
forbids the charging of rate for q
short haul which shall be higher in the
aggregate than for a longer haul under
similar circumstances and conditions,
and also the requirement that the ship
per on the longer hauls shall not pay
a higher rate per ton per mile than on
the shorter haul In the same direction.
Generally the allegations are OF un-
just discrimination in tariff rates on
classes and commodities and unlawful
combinations by the roads made de-
PENDANTS.
Mr. Kindel filed a number of tables
with the commission, according to
which there is discrimination against
Denver in many commodities from
eastern points. These tables Illustrated
different methods of figuring out COM
parative tariff rates. Some OF the
tables showed that certain commodi-
ties could be shipped from eastern
points through Denver to San Fran
cisco and Salt Lake and back to Den
YER at n less rate IMAM ulISCt w DSh
yer. He suggested that this might eX-
plain in part the shortage of cars
throughout the country.
The witness said all he asked was
equality in rates. He did not ask for
lower rates for Denver, provided tine
city could be treated equally well as
other localities.
Attorney Joel F. Vail for the Denver
e. Rio Grande railroad cross-eXamined
the witness in an effort to show that
the rates over his railroad were not
excessive.
The attorneys for the other railroads
also asked a few questions of Mr'
Kindel.
A. ]. Spengel, a furniture dealer of
Denver, complained of the rates on
furniture and carpets. He said that
as president of the chamber of COM
merce he had prepared brief on the
railroad rates which was presented to
all the western railroads Nothing
came of this, although the roads
promised to take the matter up. He
said that they did not ask for speci-
fic railroad rate. put that they wanted
to get into competitive territory on an
equal basis with other places.
