The copper era., 1907-04-25

The New York-Arizona Gold and
Copper company this week added
seven men to its force of miners
and will put on a day aud night shift
at once. Another shipment of lum-
Der for construction of bunk houses
and improvements at the mines was
taken out to the camp this week by
the Cansler teams. 1t is the inten-
ton of the company to make things
move at the mines from now on.
and shafts will be timbered and
Strengthened and put into first-Class
condition. The company, which is
backed by eastern people, is in fine
shape financially and is prepared to
carry on development work on
large scale. There appears to be no
doubt as to the merit of the proper
ties, which are located in the we'll
known section of the Morenci district.
There are many good paying mines
in the neighborhood of the property
owned by the New York-Arizona
company and all that is necessary is
the expenditure of money i'll devel-
opment work. A number of parties
visited the camp last Sunday and
came back well pleased with what
they saw. They report a great deal
of ore on the dumps that will go well
in gold, silver and copper.

remarkable fact In connection with

HUNT FOR FUGITIVE coNvIcrs.
Police Believe Friends Are Hiding
Quinn and Harmon.

Chicago, Aug. 31.-Detectives from
Capt. O'Brien's Office resumed their
search Friday with renewed vigor for
Edward Quinn and Harry Harmon,
the two convicts who escaped from
Joliet penitentiary. Scores of detec-
tires from the Desplaines and West
Lake street stations searched the old
haunts of the men on the West side
during the night Friends Of the two
convicts were questioned, but all de-
MED that they were shielding the con-
victs. Lieut.. James Larkin Of the de-
tective bureau, who knew both Grim
inals, Is positive that the men are hid
ing In Chicago. The fact that they
have not been seen by any one In the
country surrounding the prison in
Joliet leads the police officials to be-
lieve that they boarded a passing
north-bound Alton freight train, which
they had probably timed.
