CAPITAL IN MEXICO
IS NOT ALARMED
Over Agitation to Shut Out
Foreigners in the Develop
ment of Mining,

CHIHUAHUA, Mex, June 1.-THE
receipt of the news from AeArvU
City that an ultra conservative ele-
ment in the organization known as
the Chamber Of Miners" had COM
menced the agitation for stopping for
eigners from owning mining property
in Mexico, has not created a ripple
among foreigners who are engaged
in the mining business IN this state.
Mining men here, and they are all
Americans and Englishmen with a
few French and Germans, feel that
tie liberal government of Diaz will
never stand for a policy which would
cripple this great industry in which
foreigners have something like
$500 100000 gold invested. They
are the ones who are doing practical
ly all OF the mining on anything like
a large scale, they are buying mines
and prospects from Mexicans, are
paying Mexicans wages up in the
millions annually, are buying MeAi-
can products and paying tie federal,
state and municipal governments
more millions in taxes direct and in
direcs.
1t is confidently expected and mas
already been manifested that tns
large liberal elements among the
Mexicans is opposed to this anti
foreign policy which means the Grip
ping of the mining industry for all
time il carried into effect.
It is an incontrovertible fact thar
there is not enough Mexican capitai
to develop the country's mining re-
sources anything like what is being
done now by foreign capital and no
one knows this better than the intel
ligent Mexicans They also know
that it is only in very recent years
that Mexico has got the confidence
of foreign capital and to pass such a
law at this time means that thai
confidence viii require years more
to recover from II.

A MEXICAN REPORTS
FINDING A GOLD MINE
Says He Ran Across Entrance

Near Juarez.

FL Paso, June "a Mexican resi-
dent of Juarez who has been pros

city, stated that he had discovered
the entrance to a tunnel which is be-
heyed to lead into an old mine rich
in gold
The man claims to have maps
which came from records in Mexico
City, which maps show the location OF
the lost mine, and ne has been work
ing on this clue for quite while, but
time and the elements had so COM
pletely obliterated all of the indica-
tions that It has been with great diff
ficulty he succeeded in locating the
mouth of the tunnel.
The man claims to have come
from the interior of Mexico, and says
the knowledge of the existence of the
old mine has been in possession of
his family for three generations.
He confided ais secret to some
citizens of JuareZ this morning, Of
fering them an interest in the treas
ure provided they would finance the
operations necessary TO clean out the
old workings and get at the gold
which he says is certainly there.
He refused to show the location of
the shaft or to exhibit the maps which
he says he has in mis- possession IN
less the parties to whom he talked
would first sign up legal documents

WEEK IN MINING
LISTLESS ONE
IN WARREN DIST
Sixth Furnace for the C. & A.
Will Be Completed About
the Middle of July-Talk of
Dividend.

The past week in the Warren dis
trict has been an almost 1istless one,
but little or interest developing. The
Copper Queen company is doing the
most new work OF the companies, this
being confined. however, TO the new
powerhouse and the Sacramento shaft.
At the, Sacramento, the new hoist is
being Installed. and will be ready
for use in about a week. The ore
handling system is rapidly being In
stalled. the frame work being almost
completed. The shaft is being pre-
pared for use, at which time all the
ore of thu company's mines will be
hoisted at this point, and much IS
being done on the surface.
II is stated that the Sacramento
VIII be ready for use in about a
month. when all the new machinery
win be ready for use, including the
skin system and the ore handling de
vice. On or about July 1 the first ore
will be raised, after which time the
shaft will become the principal work
ings OF the company. The dlnerent
mines of the company are being pre-
pared for tha electric handling Of ore
and in many cases the steel has been
laid and the trolley wire strung.
At the Junction of the Superior &
Pittsburg company the new 1,4O0-foot
station is almost completed. Satur-
day morning work was begun on the
removal Of $500 gallon Prescott low
lift pump from the 1900 station of
the Hoatson. from where it win be
trammed on the 1900 level to the
Junction.
Although the various properties in
the district have layed off consid'
erabie amount CT men in the past
few months, the total number en-
ployed at the present time amounts
to about the same as in the past two
months. a number of men being put
at work nearly every day. In all, the
conditions in the district are in pretty
good shape from any point Of view.
Operations at the Snyder property,
under option 20 the Calumet & Ari-
IONA company have been suspended.
The property is located near Tucson.
Ariz., and so far developed only fair
ore body The desire to conserve
funds until a more favorable market
for the red metal, prompted the ac-
tioa taken by the Calumet & Arizona
1t rs possible that a similar step will
be taken with one of the other prop
critics held under bond by the COM
pa1y.
The sixth furnace Tor Calumet &
Arizona, Of a capacity of 500 tons per
day, will be completed about the mid
die Of July. The sInelter will prob
ably treat Superior & Pfttsburg ores
in this new furnace almost entirely.
Work on the furnace is not being
pushed TO any degree because there is
no insistent demand for getting out
more copper from either of the two
properties which have their ores
treated ut the smelter. Calumet &
Arizona dividend talk continues To
point strongly to the rate being con.
timed for another quarter at least at
81 Der share.

LOST SPANISH MINE
B0BS UP ONCE MORE
Hank Hawkins Writes That He
Has Found 1t

Hank Hankins writes to his Yuma
friends that he has found the long
lost Spanish mine, and that its rich
ness is beyond compare. That he is
wild is shown by his claim that the
lodges are thick, running for thirty-
live miles in length over streCcm
four miles wide. and are from ten
to sixty feet wide. and he advises
that the news be shouted for Yuma
county.
He claims the entire find and says
that the rush will be a record breaker
soon. The new find, whatever its
value. is about 10 miles NORTH of
Yuma, at the west end of the famous
Harua Hala range, the range that
has produced ores OF fabulous rich
ness in days agone.
Mr.. Hawkins reports the finding of
the old retorts, and of unlimited guam
titles of Stag, and it is evident that he
has found another source of wealth
for Yuma county, even though the lost
mine should yet be lost.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 6.-The
metallic mineral deposits of Mohave
county. Arizona, were known as long
ago as the early sixties, when rich
gold ore was discovered in what mas
since been called the Moss mine.
about four miles northeast of Gold
Road, near the old Camp Mohave
trail. A decade later the attention
of prospectors was attracted to the
newly found silver gold ores in, the
Cerbat range. The ore veins then
opened in the Cerbat and Hualpai
mountains were so rich that the
mines yielded large profits, although
the expense of freight and treatment
ran into thousands of dollars a ton.
owing to the fact that the ores had
TO be packed long distances on burros
to Colorado river, thence to be trans
ported by steamer down to the Gulf
of California and up the coast to San
Francisco, from which point they
were shipped TO England for treat
ment This method of marketing the
ores was followed up to the advent
Of the railroad in 1882. Up to that
time, for lack of transportation ia
cilities and machinery, shafts more
than 100 feet deep were few in num-
Der, although the production OF high
grade ore ran well up into the mil
lions. With the coming of the rail
road a new mining era began, and
development work below water level
was made practicable
During the early years the region
was ciassed as a silver camp, end no
allowance was made by the smelters
for the gold, lead or copper contained
in the ores, but the decline of silver

that Hachita contains 5000 people

DULUTH, Mimi, June 6.-Colonel
W. c. Greene, copper mining man,
who with his physician, Or. Gal
braith, is in the city for a few DAYS,
consented to talk copper for a few
minutes yesterday. He had just re-
turned with the doctor TO the Spald-
ing from an automobile ride. Colonel
Greene has been suffering from an at
tack of rheumatism, but is now rapid
~ recovering from it, and otherwise
is in his usual good health.
There is nothing new about the
copper business just now" said
Colonel Greene Everything de
The German and English markets for
the metal are very good, though, of
course, the production in the United
States and Mexico has fallen off. as
the consumption in the UnIIeo
States is much less than formerly
We cannot expect much of a revival
in copper till general business i'm
proves. Jnd THAI Improvement has
already begun TO make its appear
ance. Everything looks encouraging
10 me.
In Arizona and Mexico the general
feeling is that we shall enjoy better
prices for copper by next fall, and
productions of the metal is increasing
quite rapidly. 1t now looks as if Ari-
iona will pass Michigan as copper
production division of the United
States within the next two years.
''T-he Cole properties at Bisbee are
in fine shape. The Superior and
Pittsburg and the Calumet & Arizona
are looking well. The Cole proper
ties in the Burro Mountain district
are looking exceedingly well.
"The Greene Cananea property is
in excellent shape and we expect to
resume production in short time.
The Greene Cananea plant has been
largely increased and We shall be i'll a
position to produce the metal cheaper
than ever before. We should be able
to produce copper for less than 10
| cents a pound, which is about tmve
cents a pound cheaper than three
years ago. The reduction is made
possible by new improvements at the
plant and a little higher average of
metal to the ton Of ore. The silver
values, too, are increasing and will
materially help to reduce the cost OF
producing the copper.
Yes, the times surely are imprOF-
ing. There is a general feeling over
the country that We have seen the
worst of the late panic and that We
are now experiencing an upturn. The
panic was caused by lack of ccnii-
dence, and all that we need is a re-
turn Of confidence to get everybody
busy again. Some enterprises have
been delayed, but l believe that re
country viii benefit by what We have
experienced. This country is too
rich and has too many undeyeIvped
resources to suffer any permanent
setback
Colonel Greene has some kind and
appreciatiye words for Duluth. He
said that in his estimation, this city
has a great future. He believes that
it will eventually become a great
manufacturing city, as well as a great
commercial point The colonel cited
the steel plant which the United
States Steel company is going to
build here. He said that it would at
tract many kindred industries, and
cheap power would be one Of the
great inducements.

ARIZONA COPPER
OUTPUT FOR APRIL
Clifton Company Produced
1900 Tons of BeSSemerr
a FIattering Record,

CLIFTON. June 6.-The output of
the Arizona Copper company for the
month of April was 1900 tons of Bes-
semer copper, which was indeed "a
Tlattering record, and gives the com
pany a good average since the first
of the year. The company is nov
doing a considerable amount of
work in the way of getting ready for
the installation of a new stack on
the hill. which it is claimed will do
away with the flue dust and also
save considerable loss. Upon the
completion Of the changes planned in
the smelling department the ArIzc-

advantage in their record for this
yea:.
The output OF the Shannon Copper
company for April was as tons OF
Bessemer copper, being the normal
monthly average During April one
of the big engines was out Of com
mission several days. which cut the
output somewhat. The big furnace
was also out of commission on a.
count of necessary repairs, but the
two smaller ones we're in running or
der. aud practically all OF the work
was done by them. The big one is
now in commission again. and
chances are good for an increased
