Retrenchments At
 the Bisbee Mines

Notice has been given to the miners employed by the Copper Queen com pany that in the event the copper
 market does not improve in the course
 of the next sixty days that the com
 pany will begin tine curtailment of
 production, which will necessitate
 the laying of of several hundred men
 in the mines at that place.
 Last week four furnaces were shut down at the Copper Queen smel.e- at
 Douglas and between l50 and POO smelter employees were laid of. No miners in Bisbee have been affected SO far On account of the shut down of the four furnaces at Douglas, but the notice served this week has created feeling of unessiness which is already being felt in business circles.
 The Review says that inquiry at the Calumet & Arizona office elicited the that no orders had been received from the Eastern office or from Third Vice President Powell, who is in Los Angeles, ordering of production at the CAlu- met X Arizona, but it is generally believed that the Copper Queen ard t Arizona will adopt the 'sme course provided the price of copper continues to be unsettled.
 Development work by small com ,anies in the district, and also in Northern Sonora, has been effected y the d cline in the price of copper tocks and much difficulty IS being experienced in securing enough capi- al to continue the development york.

A Decline in
 Copper Stocks

Another wave of depression see ms to have struck the stock market and new low marks have been found for almost ali of the copper stocks. There does not seem to have been support of any kind behind the market and from in- dieations at the close it would not seem that the outlook is promising
 The hammering of the stocks seem to have been especially directed at those of the Cole interests Calumet q Arizona has dropped in two days from $I32 to $l06, North Butte from o5s to $46; Keweenaw from $7.50 to A. 50; Superior d Pittsburg from SII.75 to 1925; and Greene-Cananes from sIO to g. .z5. The decline hss act been confined to the Cole stocks alone, however, Amslgsna.ed drop ping srom $67 to $60 and Ansconds from $44 to $3s in the la-t two days and it is impossible to estimate the decline in the curb stocks.

To Diminish
 Disease in Stock

Further evidence of the govern ments concern over the improvement of range conditions in the national forests is shown in the announcement just made that stock owners will be furnished free of charge supplies of vaccine for the treatment Of stock a'- fi:cted with black leg, tuberculosis and other animal diseases.
 This arrangement has been made by the forest service with Dr. A D. Melvin, chief of the bureau of anima industry at Washington, Q. c.
 Stockmen holding permits for graz ing in the national forest will nov be furnished with an effective means of com batting without cost all of the most dangerous diseases to which stock is subject.
 The vaccine can be obtained simply by applying to the supervisors of the forest upon which the stock is grszed who will at once forward the approved request to the bureau of animal in- dustry where it will be filed. Full di- rections sill be furnished for it's use.

An Arizonan's
 Many Misfortunes

The Globe Silver Belt has the fol- lowing remarkable story
 Mike 0'Byrne, s miner employed on the San Carlos strip, is confined at his sisters home on East Push street suffering with & badly fractured arm, as the result of sn accident which oc cured on Monday, September 9. While descending the mountain side, 0'Byrne slipped, falling into a shai. low shaft, with thc result as previous ly stated
 September 9 seems to be a hoodoo to o Byrpe, as for the past nine years on that date he has suffered an ac- cidsnt of more or less serious nature on that date. He has kept com plete diary of his mishaps on Sep tembe 9, and here is what the little book of accidents reveals: ls99-Hip crushed and fractured.
 l90O-Left leg broken. l9ol-Burned by gas explosion.
 l902-Toe ground of b. tram car. l9O3-skull fractured. I904-Back badly sprsined. l905-Finger crushed of. l90S-Bad scalp wound. l9G7-Right arm broken. "A peculiar circumstance, in con- nection with these accidents" ssid Mir. Byrne, rests in the fact that have worked nearly every day during the past nine years and have never received ss much az 6 scratch except on September 9 of the respective years. 0f course, in late years have been very cautious, especially while working underground, but bad luck proved victor before night fell. For instance, on Monday just little loose round pebble threw me ss was going down the hillside and into the shaft l plunged. Lsst year was csught by . cavein jus, as l was going of shift and the year previous while assisting . prospector to lift bucket l got my hand caught in a wini ass and of went my fsger You can bet that next year I will take yacstion on the 9th of September and II A fc,ding bed or something of that cl aracter don't give me the worst oi !, sill decide that luck has returned. But l want to tell you something even more peculiar in connection with this series of September 9 accidents. My father was killed while working in a stone quarry three months befo.e was born, on September 9, 1873"

Huachuca Water Co.
 Running Blazer

This city, which for the past twenty or more has enjoyed the distinction of having the best natural fire protection of any place in the west, promises to lose it during the next few days if an order sent out from the eastern office i is out into effect.
 A H. Gardner, manager for the Huachues Water Co, has received letter from President Davis of the company from New York ordering | him to cut the pressure in the mains and lsterals of the company in Tomb stone from l50 pounds to 40 pounds. The reason given by MT Davis is that the pipes have been in the ground twenty odd years and are beginning 10 corr de and will not stand the con- i tinual high pressure, and the com pany is not in a position at the pres ent time to go to the expense of mak- ing repairs on the lines. The expen- .es of the company ior the past yea exceeded the income by over s2,5OO . and it will take about SOC to msk' the necessary repairs in the re servoir in the Huschucss so that i will hold any water whatever. Should this order become effectiv it is not unlikely that insurance rate
 for Tombstone Nill soon go skywsr and the city will be practically Siti

 The move of the company is sn un s expected one and is regarded Tn u
 light sof an attempt to "get bscI
 at the city, who by injunction pr' l. vented the company from taking U i'd its pipes or interfering with the wat
 supply for Tombstone when an effo c. was made to move the plant to Bi' 1. bee.
 The "move" is not regarded vii I'd much alarm, and is, rather. welcom' i- by local attorneys. who see in it pla
