COPPER PROSPECT IN THE
 GRANTEES
William Baker Has Splendid Surface Show
 ings On Claims
tFrom Saturdays Daily)

Thoroughly convinced that he k tn" owner of what will develop into one of the large copper mines of the territory, in the Baker group of mines in 'he Granite mountain district, William Baker of Jerome Junction, arrived here yesterday from his camp with mum. Der of samples of the ore winch assays from $3 Co $20 n ton in copper, at the present market price of the red metal. He nas proven the ore body over 100 fee, in width on the surface by several cross cuts but has not yet developed it 10 any considerable depth. He has re. fused several Hattering offers for the four claims which he located last fourth of July.
 Baker discovered the croppings of the promising deposit Independence Day in guleh where croppings were exposed few days before by heavy rainstorm. Not being possessed with enough capital 10 develop the ground m an extensive way, he is opening i' on the surface by open cuts and shal' low shafts, in all of which the ore body is exposed in place. The ore is sul' phuret, resembling the product of the United Verde mine at Jerome.
 The property is located near the northwest point of Granite mountain. Although it has been travelled over al' most since the early eos by prospect or, miners and mining engineers, it ap. pears to have never been discovered before as no prospect holes or shafts were found on it, al,houga a diligent search was made 10 find any trace of its early appropriation or operation.

BIG BLAZE FOR SMALL FIRE.
 (From Wednseaay's Daily)

An alarm of fire at 2:45 this morn. ing was for blavc whieh destroyed an old frame house ,ccupic by .he employees of Mulvennon's B stable in the southern end of the city. The depart. mcnt found some disiculty in reaching the fire, as the house was on an alley. adjacent to the tenderloin, and some. what inaccessible.
 When the water was turned on. how. ever, the fire lads, with two fic streams, soon conquered the flames which made as much display as the burning of an ordinary city block, ow. ing to the infammable nature of the building. No wind was blowing. very Fortunately, for between the burning house and the business section of the city was m unbroken array of shacks which would have furnished shaving, Tor the flames had south wind been blowing.
 The loss is nominal.

0RASsY CATTLE IN PLENTY LOWER PRICES

KANSAS CITY, May ol.-Thc ap. pearanee of good many grassy cattle on the market las, week, in the fiber. al total of 4l,000 head, brought a de. cline of 20 10 90 cents on all but the best fed kinds, which also lost n small amount. Today the run IS 1000 head. and the spread between best fed stun and that showing grass is more pro. nouneed, as it will continue to be from now on through the summer season Large numbers of grass Texas cattle have been marketed in Ft. Worth, and northern packers are buying them free. ly for slaughter at their plants at the different markets in the North, whicn thereby affect prices on medium and common grades of fed cattle. Choice fed stun is higher today, and will like. ly remain at high figure all summer as it becomes more scarce. Another consignment of the Lockhart steers sold here today at $7.l0, highest point they have reached tnis year at any market, lot at q in St. Louis last Tuesday having held the previous record for these steers. They opened the season here two months ago at $5.225 Other Colorado fed steers sold today at s5.50 to s8.1O. range on cows $500 to $5.5O, heifers s3.75 to s6.40, bulls $3.25 to $5.4O, calves s3.75 to $500. Stockcrs and feeders are 40 to a cents lower than two weeks ago, but are selling n shade better today, stoekers s3.25 to t5.25, feeders s4.25 to $5.5O.
 Heavy receipts of sheep and lambs last week, with bad reports from out side points, brought loss of 20 10 30 cents The run is l5,00O today, market 10 to 20 lower again. Texas is fur. nishing bulk of the supply, muttons worth $4,25 To $500, and Texas goats sS.25 to s3.75. Larger supplies of Texas muttons have appeared in tho last two weeks than anyone had count. ed on, with a slump of 25 to 30 cents as result. Quality is not as good as formerly, another bad feature. Colo. rado fed stun is about all in, few wooded lambs today at $6.75 to s6.9O. with $7.oO about the limit for wooded stun today, clipped lambs s575 to $6.35, yearlngs $5.25 to t5.75, wethers and ewes $A.50 to s5.25. Indications favor liberal receipts this week, with small prospect of any recovery in prices. Only some common Arizona feeding sheep and some low grade Arizona goats were included in receipts last week.
