NORTH BIseEE DEW. co

This company's property, consisting Of 19 claims and fraction, lies about 35z miles is a northwesterly direction from Bisbee, adjoining the Franken- berg g=Azp and the ground of the Mountain View Development Co. The company is capitalized for 200, 900 shares of the par value of 8, is of ficered by Bisbee people and was but recently floated. Seyenty-fiye thou. sand shares of the treasury stock was put on the market a short time ago and development work of a modest character has been started. At pres ent two shifts of two men each are driving tunnel to tap the main lead which cuts the property from north to south for s500 feet on the surface. It varies in width, from to 100 feet, lying between altered porphyry and carboniferous lime.
 Besides the main ledge, there are three distinct veins oe smaller di- mensions leading from or to the main lead. The tunnel, started on Blass claim No. 2 and being run in an east eriy direction toward Blass No. 3 has already cut the first of these smaller veins at depth of 70 feet. The vein shows a thickness at this depth of 3 ts feet. A tale stringer, eighteen inches wide. carries quartz, but as yet no assays of this mineralized matter have been made It is estimated that the big vein will be reached at a dis tance of 260 feet from the mouth of the tunnel. They are now in 14S feet.
 The surface capping is of iron quartz. and highly mineralized. On the Blass No. nine foot vein gave assay returns averaging 19.7 copper, with some silver and gold values. Wherever work has been done. most ly on a small scale, the veins explored are shown to be in place and all car rying good copper values.
 A meeting of the directors of North Bfsbee Development company was held at Bisbee Thursday of the past week at which time it was decided to push the present tunnel work un- til this main ledge has been cut be fore opening any further development work. The daily average for the tunnel shows nearly four feet. this with the two shifts referred to above. The cost for driving the tunnel has been s4.3s. per foot, remarkably economical in view of the location Of the property sad cost of hasIing sup plies from H5sbee.

 COPPER LETTER

Copper is holding it's recent gain, and indications point lo a still further advance. There is no lake or cleo trolytic for sale below 25 1-2 to 26 cents per pound for delivery any time during the coming three months. Sales of spot copper as high as 26 1-2 cents are reported. The falling off in pro duction during the winter months has put the producing companies in po- sition where they will find it difficult to deliver the copper already sold; and they will have no surplus to sell for cash delivery between now and July. Consumers are in the market to buy copper every day. and the TOT eign demand is much stronger now than at any previous time for several months. It seems quite probable that prices will be marked up another cent CT two per pound in the near future.
 The bad break in prices recently is almost wholly the result of an over strained money market. As has been stated previously on several occasions, the supply of available money is ex- hausted and brokers hsve been unable to finance margin speculative ac- counts. Banks have been forced to call loans and this has pecipitated free selling of securities. The decline in railroad and industrial. stocks, and in some of the high priced coppers. helped to frighten speculative holders

DENs-ARlzoRA.

Work on the new spur connecting the Denn with the Fl Paso & South western, has been started sin earnest Railroad engineers are on the ground and grading Is being pushed energet- fcally. Owing to the fact that several culverts. trestles and fills are to be constructed it is not expected that the Denn spur will be completed mgcI, inside two months.
 Sinking has been abandoned fof the present, but drifting from the HOO level has been continued until the 1000 drift has now reached a point 200 feet distant from the lower sta tion. More water has been encoun- tered of late. bat no difficulty in it's handling is presented Two new boil CTS were recently added to the old battery. furnishing plenty of power in anticipation of the future needs of the Dem.
 Sufficient ore has been encountered to satisfy the management of its abil- ity to ship as soon as the spur has been finished. In the mainline de yelopment work on the HOO is being pushed rapidly forward.
 When connection with the workings of the Saginaw was made from the Denn's 10th level, work op thfs level was temporarily discontinued. The management. looking forward to the completion of shipping facilities. an- ticipate resumption on an even larger scale with an added force of miners.

and to make the selling more general. Aside from the fact that considerable amounts of Amalgamated, Anaeonda, North Butte, Utah and a few other coppers were carried in lightly mar gined accounts, there was no element of weakness in the copper share sit uation. The metal is still selling at top notch" prices. There are no sur plus supplies to depress prices or cause apprehension, and lot of cop per has been sold which is yet to be mined. Further dividend increases will be announced soon, which will make lot of the best coppers look extremely cheap at current prices.
 With the securities markets unset. tied and monetary conditions too strin- gent to permit of broad specuIauuu. there seems but one course for the careful speculative investor to pursue He should sell all his holdings of min ing socks of questionable or doubtful value and invest the proceeds in those coppers which have immediately ahead of them developments which will add greatly to their investment value. I refer to the stocks of the Companies which are increasing their production and earnings. those which are earning enough to warrant them in beginning dividend disbursements

With facilities for doubling their output completed. shattack & Arizona may be looked to for 2 daily shipment to the smelters of from 450 to 800 tons of high grade copper ore.

Shattuck has been in the past shipping in the neighborhood of $50 tong of ore daily.
