THE mining companies of this dis trict will meet their pay rolls with a small percentage of cash and the bal ance in the shape of New York drafts of various denominations, issued pay able to bearer. Those accepting New York drafts payable to bearer should take the same care of them as they would greenbacks. To lose a draft will be the same as losing bank note. The people of this district who are familiar with the standing of the Arizona and Shannon Copper com panies realize that a draft on New York issued by these institutions is as good as bank note and will readily accept sa me in payment of services rendered. Twenty-Five per cent cash, which will probably be the ratio, will put quite sum of currency into cir culation in this district.

PAY DAY.
Both Companies Will Pay Partly in Cash.

The Shannon and A. c. Copper and men on their forces, will meet their pay rolls with part cash and the balance in New York and Boston exchange, instead of using regular check forms. This new system is forced about by the shortage of money and it is impossible to get the cash. Employees can leave their time checks on deposit with the companies cash for them when the cash can be secured.
 All drafts will be made payable to bearer, therefore good care should be taken of them.
 The following notice will be posted by the Shannon Copper company, who will pay of about next Monday. The A. c. company has also posted notices about the same as the Shan nor:
 Owing to the present banking situ- ation, which does not admit of either the Clifton Banks or the shannon Copper company obtaining sufficient cash to meet the amount of the pay rolls for the month of October, we have made the best possible arrange ments we could for our employees. The company proposes to pay all em- ployees with checks drawn against the company's Boston Bank; in addi- tion certain percentage of the pay rolls will be paid in cash; as the amount of cash available is small, we ask our employees to understand that no more than the amount dis tributed in cash can possibly be paid. The checks drawn against our Boston Bank can be left with local banks for collection, which, however, may take some tune. They can be deposited in the offices of the company, to be used for credit at the compauy's stores. If employees choose to leave their checks in the company's office at Clifton, same will be redeemed in cash just as soon as the banks reopen for business on a cash basis. We warn all our employees that these checks are made payable to bearer, and will be redeemed by the company by whomsoever presented. Be care ful therefore that they are not lost. We ask employees not to sell their checks at discount, as they will be paid in full.

ticle the ERA wishes to state that the Clifton-Nevada Development company, composed of strictly Cliff ton people, has located a group of five claims on the east and south. Drue Underwood, we'll known in Cliff ton, was appointed to do the pros pecting for the company and left here several months ago. Since then the syndicate has contributed monthly payments and it now seems that they have struck a bonanza. Five loca- tions were made, among them being the "Rattlesnake, supposed by old timers to haye been a patented claim, but upon investigation MT. Underwood discovered that the pro- ceedure had never been completed and the mine laid idle for about fif- teen years. A considerable amount of work had been done on the claim, which is a silver and copper propoSi
 tion, and from which some excellent shipments have been made. Several carloads of copper and silver ore is piled on the dump, which will return the new owners several thousand dol lars. Upon investigation Drue dis covered that the mine contains an excellent showing in the way of ore in sight. This claim alone is worth a good stake as it is located in the Hamilton district, well known to the Nevada people for the wealth it has produced. The four adjoining claims are on the same lead and with devel- opment will most likely be as good as the Rattlesnake, hence it will be seen that the CliftOn-Nevada Devel- opment company has made an excel lent showing. The officers of the company are: E. U. BeauChamp, president: J. O. Baylor, secretary and treasurer: Drue Underwood, gen eral manager. Mir. Underwood las finished his location work and will re- turn to Clifton in the near future on short visit. His many friends here will be glad to see him.

The Cricket Game.

On last Sunday the cricket team of the Scotch mess, on East Side, chal- lenged the town in general for a match game. They were accommo- dated and although they were played a close game, met with victory by a few scores. Numerous star plays were pulled of and spectators report that it was the most interesting and scientific game of the season. Sev- eral old professionals like Norman Carmichael, Tom Smith and A. T. Thomson took part in the game and introduced some new stunts into the game locally. Mir. Carmichaels hard hitting and lightning fielding were the special features of the game. Tom Smith and J. G. Cooper demop- strated the fact that they had not forgotten their old habit of sprint ing. The only mistake Tom made was when he thought he was playing baseball and attempted to slide to the home wicket. As a number of the Clifton players are new begin nerS and others are out Of practice, there are always enough comical plays made to keep up interest among the spectators. MT. Cuthbert, captain of the professionals, and A. T. Thomson, captain of the invinci- bies, both of whom are deeply inter- ested in the game, have arranged to pull off a match next Sunday after noon that promises to be the hottest contest ever witnessed in Clifton. They are securing the district for good players and it is reported that both gentlemen are making especial efforts to induce MT. Bennie, of the Shannon company, to join them. It is reported that MT. Bennie is the best player in the district, and be will most likely take a swipe at the

ABOUT s9O. .OOO. .OOO has been shippet

ABOUT 800, O,OOO,O 900 has been shipped into the United States from abroad since the recent shortage of currency The most of this money has been de- posited in New York banks, and very little of it has been shipped outside Ot that state, hence the smaller banking institutions are compelled to remain in the clearing house for pro- tection. Tucson was boasting of it's banks remaining open for business, but last week the banks of that city entered into pool and are now issu- ing clearing house certificates. But for this system of doing business among themselves and exchanging certificates each day, there would have been many more failures than have been reported up to the present date. This condition of affairs will remain until the eastern financial in- stitutions cough up the dough. From the way the gold has been pouring into the country it would seem that only short time will be required to clear the local atmosphere, although many people are ot the opinion that it will be three or four months.

THE largest copper consumers of Europe have formed a pool in London and purchased 5O,OOO tons ot copper. The purchase was made at slightly higher price than the prevailing quo- tatiOn and it is reported that the transaction involved approximately Sl5,OOO,OOO. The copper is to be de- livered in November and December and the money is to be paid upon de- livery in London. The concerns re- presented in the pool are on to their job and fully realize that copper at present prices is snap. That it will reach a higher level in the very near future, there is little doubt; and con- sumers who buy now will reap good ly benefit.

THERE has been a considerable amount of talk about the A. c. con- pany making arrangements to dump slag along the river bank from the hospital down, ever since the big flood in December. But up to the present date no slag has been dumped or any preparations made for the track. This is a matter that should be looked after at once, as it is now about time for the high water. Slag in addition to the rock wall, will make the hospital and residence property more secure against floods. When the river is low is the time for this work to be done and it now seems as though the next flood will be here before the work has even been com menced. The company needs duhp- ing ground and citizens should make an effort to have the work commen- ced at once.

A Mexican was arrested and tried before Judge Smith this week on the charge of having sold venison, con- trary tn the law. He had jury trial and upon testimony introduced it was learned that he had killed three deer, but the complainant failed to convince the jury that he had sold any of the meat. The jury disagreed and Judge Smith dismissed the case. The party who made the complaint was given some of the venison, gratis,
