which will be further increaseu ulis week. During the week shipment- were made by the Black Hawk mine of the Arizona Commercial, which will now be steady though not large shipper Tor some time, and the Su- perior & Boston during the weeh made it's first shipment to the OiU Dominion smeIter, the consignment consisting of two carloads or eight Der cent ore from the Limestone shaft. The Gray mine Of the United Globe is now shipping about 100 tons daily to the smelter by way of the Arizona Commercial railroad instead of the former horse transportation, and these shipments include a good graCeof sulphide ore.
 The Independence mine situated in the extreme western part of the Globe district, has become an import ant factor in the mining and shipping of high grade sulphide ore and is now supplying the Old Dominion smelter with what is declared by O. D. officials as the best sulphide ore in the district Fiftesu to twenty tons are being shipped daily from the mine. which is twenty-two miles dis tant and this week the Old Dominion will furnish sufficient, additional teams to almost double the ship ments. The old Dominion has also increased it's shipments of sulphide ore from it's Continental mine, where a force of twenty-fice men is how employed. Good lump sulphide is be- ing shipped from the Continental. Gre from the Gibson is arriving at the smelter at the rate of about twen- ty-fiye tons daily.
 Excellent developments are report ed from the Black Hawk district, by both the Arizona Commercial and Su- perior & Boston company. In the Black Hawk mine the ore in the winze at the east end is showing won derful improvement. In sinking the ~inze the ore has increased over a Sundred per cent in richness within a distance Of not quite fifty feet When the winze was first started the ore assayed seven per cent copper, a general sample taken at a depth of thirty feet went almost eleven per cent, and a general sample taken yes terday at forty-fiye feet showed be tween fourteen and fifteen per cent copper The ore is a carbonate with q other development of importance mas been the widening of the slip in which the winze is being sunk. SeY- en weet wide when started, it has widened to full twelve feet and is ap parently growing wider with furtAer depth. A hoist and skip has replaced the hand windlass which has been in use in the winze.
 On the other side of the Black Hawk line, on Superior & Boston ground, the crosscut in the Great Eastern shaft shows indications 0 the proximity of ore and it is be lived that the Black Hawk vein will be encountered with something like thirty feet of additional work. The ground in the crosscut is becoming soft and copper stain is coming in Ore was struck yesterday on the 30O IevelN of the Limestone shaft of the Superior 6 Boston, in the east drift from the crosscut Although it has been penetrated only a short distance it appears to be the same vein on the 200 level. The upraise in tae Black Oxide tunnel is now 100 Feet above the tunnel and drifting will be started in both directions on the vein.
 There has been no change in tne character of the ore in the Mallory shaft of the Globe Consolidated. Ths vein is being drifted on in both di rections The ore occurs in large Jumps, which has made it impossible td secure anything like general sample of the entire vein The ore is very rich, none of it assaying under fifteen per cent The northwest cross cut on the 1900 level of the Gen shaft is making excellent headway but as yet it has not bumped into any thing that looks like ore.
 Buffalo Hill is also being explored by the old Dominion on the 10th leve of that mine which corresponds witf the 700 level of the Gray. The cross cut has passed through several smal veins and 1t is expected that 1t vii soon cut the Maggie vein. The Mag gle is similar to the Kirkey vein, al though it has a better surface show ing than the Kirkey. The 10th leve crosscut is now in United Globt ground and about 200 feet from ths side lines of the Globe Consolidated
 The water problem in c. shaft O. the old Dominion has now been satis factoriIy disposed of and connection with the 9th level will be made some time this week.
 in the west end of the Old Do niiaion good progress is being made in the 18th level crosscut from the winze to the 18th. On the latter level sulpaide ore is being extracted at the rate of little over thirty toni daily. which is going direct to cn' snaelter. The ore is not growing an, richer in copper. assaying between three and five per cent and carryint about thirty per cent sulphur
 The Inspiration Mining compan! has been given a fresh start througi the bond issue recently authorized b. the stockholders and just what vii be done with the money. will be de cided at the annual meeting of the di rtctors, which will be held at Kansa' City. Mo, next Thesday. The com phny has secured new capital and in TmentiaI backing and ip short am, it should be a big factor in the dis tfict
 Among the prominent mining mel expected in the district this weel ate President H. B. Hoylaad and Sec retary John U Sebenius Of the sGiob' Consolidated, and Captain lame Clvaoweth. president of the Superio &' Boston.
