At the present time there are a
number of small leasers operating in
the Clifton-Morenci district, and the
majority of them are making good
money at the business. This is an en-
tirely new proposition in this district,
the credit for which is due entirely
to the Shannon Copper company,
which concern has made it possible
for the small claim holder to work
and operate his property at a good
profit. The Shannon bears the repu-
tation of dealing fairly with the small
shipper, as well as the larger ones,
and while the company realizes d
good profit everybody is satisfied and

ore that is extracted daily from the
company's own mines, which are all

ore in sight. A continuation of pres
ent high prices for copper means that

ositious in Arizona.

WASHINGTON. July 22-The customs
houses at Tstung Kou and Antung. on the
Chinese-CoreRn frontier. and at Dalny,
within the japanese leased territory on
Liaotuns peninsula, are in operation, the
latter since July /.
A cablegram has been received from the
American legation at Peking informing the
Department of State that Chinese imperial
maratime customs houses are about to be
opened on the Chinese Russian frontier
The agreement as to Dany was made on
May 30 by the Japanese minister at Peking
and Sir Robert Hart, the inspector general
Of the imperial msratime customs. In
brief, It provides for the establishment OF
the customs house and prescribes rules for
the navigation of the waters within the
Japanese leased territories. being framed
upon the agreement made In 1889 between
China and Germany for the regulation Of
commerce within the German territory OF
KiRochou. The new agreement is to be re-
vised next spring after local conditions and
needs are more fully ascertained.
The State department feels that these
practical steps toward the restoration OF
the open door In Manchuria, in which the
United States is so deeply interested,
should be encouraging and gratifying to
American merchants.

NOTICES TO USERS OF MAIL

of Merchandise,

WARRINGTON. July 22.-The postal laws
prohibit placing written messages IN mer-
chsndise packages or letters on which less
than cents an ounce has been paid and
the provisions of this statute admit Of no
waiver OF the penalty provided. During
the last fiscal year postoffce inspectors col
lected $5s,o65 for such violations In thou
sands of cases a short note or memorandum
was placed inside a package Of merchandise
on which postage was paid at l cent an
ounce, while the written matter made It
necessary that cents an ounce should
have been paid.
Finding that In a great number of cases
the offense was due to ignorance of the
law. and that the collection Of the fine US
ually works hardship to the very poor,
especially where written messages are
made in returning coupons, tags and GER
tificates for premiums, Postmaster General
Meyer has directed that proper notices be
placed in postoffces warning the public
