CREDITORS WILL GET
 ALMOST FULL AMOUNT
Receiver of 0efunct Copper Company Says Property
 Will Pay75 Per Cent,

PRESCOTT June 27-Frank H. Moore, receiver of the -Jura Trias Copper company. said this morning that indications were that the credit ors of the company would receive be tween 75 and loo per cent of their claims. Thomas J. Curren and George W Stubbs. who were officers of the company and who had claims against he company, the former for about $60000 and the latter for about $10,000, and who brought suit against the receiver to recover these amounts, have withdrawn the suits by mutual agreement It is believed that ne plaintiff in each case became con ,ineed that the creditors had a prior claim to what here was left of the de funct company.
 The property, which consisted of a hole in the ground and a mill and considerable machinery in northwest ern New Mexico, was sold recently for SlO.OO0 to J. T. Mclaughlin of this ely. MT. Mclaughlin had a claim against he property for S30O0. and this was deducted from the pur- chase price. About S1000 was eX- pended in the handling of the receiv- ership, which leaves about sSO00 to be divided among the creditors not yet satisfied. This amount prorated will almost pay the remaining claims in full

 The negro went to Ohio and lived high as long as his money lasted Then he telegraphed to the banker that he was broke and wanted to come back west. The banker showed it to the senator and asked, Shall We send for him2"
 Yes" answered the senator. He's too smart a niggeE to be stopping back there
 So he was brought back and given a job as porter, and worked in that capacity until his death a few years ago.
 How is man to avoid being salted?" In the first place, there are only two classes of people that have any business dealing in mines. They are the men who have training and experience and understand the busi- ness, and the capitalist who can af- ford to lose once in a while.
 The way capitalists avoid being salted is to employ competent min ing engineer, and have him make a thorough examination of the property.
 Another way is to get a lease and option on the property. By this means the property may be worked for a year or six months before the purchase price is paid. In that length of time the prospective buyer will have the opportunity of testing all portions of the mine by actual work. ....-

HE RED CLOUD CLAIM GROUP
 IN PATAGONIA
Number of Test Shafts and Tunnels Have Been Sunk. Work on Other Claims in
 That District.

PATAGONIA, June 27.-Last week a boiler and hoist were hauled to the Red Cloud group of claims and are now being put in place. The Red Cloud Is owned by Dan Hampton, who has prospected the property for the past two years A number of test shafts and tunnels have been sunk and driven at different places along the OutcrOpping, which is a large one, walled on either side with diorite The matter is pretty thoroughly cop per stained and there are streaks of copper ore running through it. The property has been bounded by C. Fl. Ferry, the New York millionaire min ing man, who is prospecting the Oar win, Eureka and other properties. As soon ss the hoist is in place sinking will be commenced, with two shifts. The Red Coud is in the vicinity of the Worlds Fair and the FluX mines.
 Another interesting group of claims in that vicinity is the White Oaks group owned by Robert Daly. Frank Nugent, John Brown and Samuel Greenwood. Most of the work on the latter group has been done in Alum
 mIch. where they have an incline shaft 8 feet deep on one of tGe claims and a tunnel in 100 feet on another claim. From the tunnel they are now running a crosscut to strike another lead, forty feet north. A surface sample taken on one of the claims gave a gold assay of over forty dollars, but the leads where the work is being done are copper.
 The owners of the Elevation group of claims, about three and a half miles east of town, expect to cut the vein in a tunnel they are running. in a week or so. There are six claims !n the group. owned by F. R. McAlister. John Johnson and Peter Hanson. A cTosscut vein well up on the noun tain side in which considerable work was done. For some distance the un- nel "wiggles" about, then finally makes half loop and butts into the vein, cutting through 24 feet of quartz, streaked vita copper ore. They are now working in tunnel further down the hillside. The latter

4 GOLD STRIKE |. IN THE CONTACT
 NEAR TUCSON
Ledge Six Feet Wide and From Samples Taken the Ore Runs S21.40 in Gold. Old Miners Pleased.

One of the most important gold strikes in the history of mining in the southwest. has been made in the Contact claim of the ThOmas-Henry- Wimberly group of claims on the
 Pinal foothills about six miles north west of Tucson. The ledge is more, than six feet wide and from samples taken from across the entire width of the vein an assay of S21.40 in gold has been returned by three different local assayers. The ore is in iron sulphur. containing 9 per cent sul- phur and is pronounced one of the best fiuXing ores ever uncovered in this section of the country.
 The vein was first encountered in a shaft of g feet. At this point it
 was feet wide. Five additional feet in width have put the prospectors in a solid ore body, which covers the en-
 tire base of the shaft. and it's actual
 width will not be known until fur ther development work is done.
 Old miners who have examined sam
 pies from the Contact assert that this
 discovery will revOlutionize the min
 ing industry of the Globe district and in few months it will be alluded to as a gold-copper section. Many men
 who have examined the workings at the Contact and the general formation of the vein and ledge matter are san guine to the peTmanency of the min eraI and are inclined to the belief that | 1t will widen out with depth and show a greater richness. A two-fOot vein of such rock as is now being worked would make milliOnaires of the own CTS of this group of claims. The prospectOrs, however, fee! certIi that | they nave struck it, and stuck it very rich. They will continue to sink on the vein to determine more fully on it's extent and will have their ore hauled to the Old Dominion smelter 1 for treatment as soon as a sufficient
 quantity is on the dump to warrant
 this venture. A shipment has been
 made to the smelter at Fl Paso and returns are anXiously awaited.
 In the Wilkins group of claims ad- ] joining the Contact, and now being worked uned l lease by Belcher. a c. l inch vein of similar ore was ncoun- tered about a month ago The first assay on this ore gave values iii gold i of $40. This was depth of 15 feet. ! The shaft is now down 70 feet and the | vein measures 14 inches and still maintains it's richness. The force at
 work on this claim is doing system 1 atic mining and taking out ore pre-
 paratory for a shipment.
 This is the first strike of this na. ture in the Globe district Consider.
 able gold-bearing rock has been found
 on the Pinal foothills during the past 30 years, but no systematic mining
 has ever been done, neither mas any great depth been attained. The na- ture of the discovery is calculated to inspire confidence in the mind of the most passimistic croakeT. It Is be- Heyed that within very few weeks there will be considerable gold ex. citement in Globe and that the T'inal
 mountains will be the scene Of much
 activity.

HIGH GRADE SINK ORE
 SHIPPED ID KANSAS
Mohave County Has a Rich Producer of Zinc and Lead
 in GoIconda Property

KINGMAN. June 27.-The Union Basin Mining company is shipping another ear of high grade zinc ore to the smelter al lola, Kas., for treatment. This is the second ear of ore shipped from the GOlconda mine. The first car ran 90 per cent zinc, besides some gold and silver. John Boyle Jr., general manager of the company, has a number of min CTS at work opening up the property and getting it in shape for a large production of zinc and lead.

tunnel is now in $50 feet, and the prospectors expect to strike the vein in a short time. The tunnel will give them a depth of 400 feet at the vein.
 At the Gringo three raises were started this week on two hundred foot ore chute at the sixty foot level. preparatory to stoping out the ore 9t that place. The water is being pumped from the shaft, which is 120 feet deep, the lower part being under water. When the water is out sec ond level will be opened for stoping at that depth, where there is already 100 foot drift. In East stope No. |, on the first evel, some SIP ore has been encountered, but how much of it there is has not been determined. The shaft on the Independence claim is now down fifty feet, in ore that assays SS.32. When the shaft has ac- quired sufficient depth it will be con .neeted by a crosscut with the 120 foot level of the main work shaft. The mill is now working two shifts.
 The tunnel at the American Boy is now In 250 feet, with about 9 feet yet to cut the vein.
 The American Boy is on the east extension of the vein on which the ILeek-McDonald mine is located. A. L. Cane and Harold Cane, who
 have been prospecting the Bonanza King, adjoining the American Boy,
 now have the shaft down thirty feet and have a good dead of lead, silver and copper ore.

RESUMPTION Al CANANEA
 WOULD BOOST
Shares of the Company and Be Welcome News to Many. There Would Also Be an Active Call for Shares.

There are thousands of people who knew that when Greene Cananea re
 sumed operations a5 its mines there would be a very active call for the shares. It was known that important negotiations were in progress between the companys officials and the Mexi- can government on the subject of con Icessions which were absolutely de manded by the state of things in the copper market. Personal visits were made by the president of the com pany and members of his staff, many
 meetings were held and a lot of cor lrespo8dence excanged, the final sum- ming up being greatly to the credit of the company.
 Through the concessions gained by this action Greene Cananea will save
 millions of dollars to its sharehUla- lers, and the Mexican government will be assured of an industry that will be kept constantly in motion.
 There will be great saving in duties
 on copper exported, on fuels import ed, Freight charges will be cut. If mot, the company will construct
 road of its own to relieve it from former severe discrimination. A complete understanding as to native and other labor has been reach ed, and muca more has been accom- Iplished of great value to the company. ! The officials of the mining organiza- ton and their friends are highly pleased at the manner in which the negotiations were conducted and in the great good that has been accom- 1 plished.
 With these very important matters lagreed upon, Greene Cananea can now ! start it's mines and furnaces with every assurance that it can stay in the race, meeting the keenest com petition, and that is what it is now doing. Two smelteTs have been fired
 and others will follow until the entire smelting and reduction works are in ' full motion. Underground work will ! be pushed and the ore will come out
 fast
 | It has been Q long wait. aggravatiRg
 to many not thoroughly familiar with what was going on. but it was a busi- mess not well conducted publicly All
 now agree that the time was well em- lployed. and this will be further accen- tuated as time goes on and the records from the mines are announced.
 | Greene Cananea has a great wealth of merchantable copper ores. Its
 mines are big and lasting. The quai- Iity Of the mineral is good. With this there is then only the mining, reduc- ton and marketing. Elements enter ling into the commercial proposition have been greatly assisted by legisla- Ition. as we have said. The outcome seems to be plain: Greene Cananea should go on growing and improving
 until it is one of the greatest copper producers anywhere. It has the ore. The company possesses thousands
 of acres directly in the mineralized
 area and where other mines must
 lie awaiting the hand of the miner to
 iOpen. IT already has enough exposed
 Ito keep it busy for very many years.
