PEOPLE SHOW
GOOD FAITH
Take Certificates In Place Of Cash.
Cash Coming from the
Mint.

People who have money transac-
tons with the various local banks
are accepting the bank certificates
being issued now instead Of cash,
and business is moving as usual, the
fact that no actual cash Is being
paid out by the banks in excess of
$40 making no perceptible diminu-
tion in the volume OF daily business
done.
A canvas OF the local banks today
showed healthy increase in de-
posits. many merchants depositing
actual eurreney-which is the test
OF confidence In the situation.
A shipment of silver coin from
the San Francisco mint is expected
Is day or two, which will visibly
increase the local supply of money
The sensible cooperation OF the
people is making It easier for the
banks to meet the new order Of
things. and 1t is believed that the
present situation will not endure for
any great length of time.

Syndicate Now Controls The Humboldt
 Smelter
Details Of The Transfer Are Not Wholly
 Completed
(From Tuesdays Daily ,

George W. Middleton, who left Sat. ur1ay for New York, confirmed the announcement made in the Journal. Miner some time ago, to the effect that the Humboldt smelters had passed into the control of n syndicate in which Thomas ". Lawson, of "frcnzied finance" fame, is ono of the leading directors.
 "It is true," said Mir. Middleton, "that a deal as been made in which tho control of the Consolidated Ari- zona Smelling company's plant in Humboldt passed into a syndicate, of which Mir. Lawson is n member. 1 find that a number of people here believe that MT. Lawson controls a majority of tho stock himself, which is mis. take. There ars large number of stockholders associated with Mir. Law. son in this deal, including myself, so that the affairs of the concern will not necessarily be governed by any ono man. Many details of the transfer are not yet completed, but it is n fact that Mr. Lawson is heavily interested al. ready.
 "Yavapai county is my home," he added, "and l am doing what l can to bring the attention of the mine invest. ors to its resources. never mined through the newspapers, and do not care to discuss my business affairs, but you nre safe in wagering that there will be something doing soon, when you see mo in tho mountains and making these hurried rides"

Became Interested h Development At
 Clifton
(From TuesdAy's Dsiiy.)

Charles Lesinsky, ths first copper producer in the Territory of Arizona, died in New York City, last Friday He began mining in the Clifton cop. per district, in Graham county, in 1878, and produced the first bar of copper matte from an adobe smelter, in 1872 The mine first worked by Lesinsky wm known as the Longfellow, and is today n steady producer for the Arizona Cop. per company, who purchased tho mines from Lcsinsky in 1882. Instead of coke, charcoal was used in the furn. ace, aid I. F.. Solomon of solomonvill. had the contract to furnish the char. coal, which was hauled to Clifton from tho Gila Valley.
 Mir. Lesinsky was one of the pioneers who. came to New Mexico in 1863, and opened up n mercantile estlblishnens at Bclen. Valencia county, and later in Lns Cruces. Tho firm name was Henry Lcsinsky ( Co.,, and for twenty years this company did . great businsss in merchandise and trading. MT. k. sinsky conducted the operations, which became greater and greater, yearly.
 In 1878, Mir. Lesinsky became inter. csted in the development of copper mines at Clifton, Arizona, which are today among the best copper produeen in the country and owned by a com. pany of Scotchmen. MT. Lesinsky, from 1868 to 1882, was very we'll known throughout the southern part of the Territory, and liked and esteemed by all who knew him. At the time of his demise he was interested with the company which is manufacturing the Columbia barlock typewriter. He leaves one son and ono daughter.
 MT. Lesinsky's death was caused by cold which he contracted while taking surf bath at one of the watering places near New York. He contracted pneumonia, and died after few days illness. Many of the old.times in southern New Mexico will regret to hear of his demise. He leaves q hand some fortune and was tho owner of much real estate in the city of Fl Paso. Tex.

 The market yesterday in New York was without feature. and stocks re. mained at about the level of Sa,ur. days close, and tho fluctuations dur. ing the day were very slight. Tho general impression is that the market for the balance of the week will be quiet and without feature.
 Stocks in Boston continue weak, and with downward tendency, though the losses in most cases were fractional. The situation on copper metal continues unsettled, but this condition, from all appearances, will soon reach a solution for consumers must come in the mar. ket. Arizona Commercial is strong and higher and is the only stock which shows gains for the day. Curb stocks are weak and without special feature.
