RANCHERS LOSE FRUIT.
Late Frosts Destroyed Snake Valley
Crops-Iserries Are Plentiful.

The fruit crop of Snake valley.
one of the principal points of supply
for the Ely district, is reported by
K. II. Russell, driver of the Ely-Os-
ceola stage, to be a complete failure
this season, due to cold weather ex-
perienced extremely late in the year.
The smaller or shrub fruits of the
district. including berries, were not
injured to any great extent but ap-
pie, peach and nectarine crops were
practically destroyed, the buds being
frosted. 1t was thought at the time
that this was the case, but the ranch
ers hoped against hope that some
thing would be saved. The loss of
the fruits from Snake valley will be
materially felt in Ely as they are of
infinitely superior quality to the Cal
ifornia fruits which are brought into
the district

NINE TRAIN SERVICE.
Makes Start With Satisfactory Pa
trooage-Efy Franchise TO BE-
rendered To-day.

Suburban service over the high
line between Ely City, Ely, the Vet
eran and intermediate points was be-
gun yesterday with satisfactory re-
suits attendant in point of patronage,
considering the day being the first
of the service.
A certified copy of the franchise
which was passed at Tuesdays eoun-
Gil meeting was prepared yesterday
by City Clerk Oldfield and will be
delivered the first thing this morning
to Attorney c. s. Chandler, repre-
senting the railroad company. 1t
win then be up to the railroad to
determine whether or not it wants
the franchise, with the stipulation of
two stops in Ely. one at the regular
Ely depot, the site of which Is speci-
fed as its present location, and the
other at or near the corner of Clark
and Murry streets. II is argued by
the council that the only course open
to Ely Ia to submit the franchise as
it has been prepared. If 1t is turned
down new steps toward the drafting
of satisfactory ordinance will then
be In order.
In the present instance the fran
ohise was not sought by the railroad
but was put up to them by citizens
of Ely who secured the signatures of
property owners along Clark street
to an agreement releasing the road
from damages resulting from op-
Grafton Of trains over the street.
This was signed with the specific un-
derstanding that the trains were to
stop at Clark and Murry streets,
however, and IL Is very doubtful if
property owners Will consent to any
other agreement.

REVIVAL IN MINING
 IN YAVAPAI COUNTY Cut by SampIing Works and Railroads Likely to Restore
 Activity In the Industry.

PRESCOTT, April 27.-FoIowing the sweeping reduction in ore trans portation rates announced by P. P, Hastings, general freight and passen- ger agent of the g. F., P. 6 P, Saturday, comes the welcome news that a reduction of treatment charges, amounting to 30 per cent on the aver age, will be made on almost all class es of ores shipped from this county to the Fl Paso smelters by the Pres colt Sampling Works.
 R. H. Hetherington, one of the principal owners of the sampling works, who has been negotiating wrIil President Murphy and General Freight and Passenger Agent Hast ings of the s. F., P. & P. for some weeks over the reduction oE trans portation rates, made the announce ment yesterday that the smelters were willing to meet the railroad manage ment in arousing activity in the min ing industry of northern Arizona as far as possible without loss.
 Reductions in treatment charges will be made by the smelters, amount ing to 30 per cent, on the average, on all character of ores that can be treated without actual loss to the smelters," he said. Tt will be impos- sible to make the reduction on some of the ores on account of peculiar and costly methods of treatment, but a reduction will be made wherever pos sible."

TIE OLD DOMINION .. ID HAVE NEW FURNACE Will Be Ready for Blowing In Within the Next Few
 Weeks.

Superintendent Hegarde of the Old Dominion says the sixth furnace is being installed at the smelter, and will be ready for blowing in in a very short time. In spite of the low price of copper four furnaces are in operation at the smelter and the fifth resumed operations Monday. All of them are being well supplied with sulphide ore from the company's own mines, with the exception of a com paratively small daily shipment from the Copper Queen at Bisbee.
 The Old Dominion mine itself has sufficient sulphide ore in sight to sup ply the full battery of furnaces, but the lower sulphide levels have not been sufficiently opened to permit of extensive hoisting. Excellent pro gress is being made in the opening up of the new ore bodies.

GLOBES BLOOM FROM MIAMI |S
 SUBSTANTIAL
BiSbee Man Says Camp Is Prospering and One of the Best in the Territory-RaiI- road RumorS.

The Globe mining district, accord ing to A F. Gressler of Bisbee, who has been there recently in cOnnec- ton with the sale of the Globe Flee tric & Gas company to eastern cap italists, is among the very best min ing camps in Arizona. He says Globe felt the recent financial de presison less than any other camp.
 The Miami claims located about eight miles from Globe are a great proposition, Gressler says. In the mine there is at present 2,000.000 tons or ore blocked out. The shaft is down soc feet Ore was struck al 250 feet The management drifted at different points and the finest de posits of copper ore, bearing silver and gold have been discovered. Copper from the Miami mine, it is said. can be made at profit and sold for nine cents. The claims are owned by the Lewishons of New York and ample capital has been forthcoming to fully develop the property, which is expected to do wonders for Globe That the activ- ity on there at present is substantial is attested by the fact that there is not a vacant house or store room in Globe.
 The Inspiration claims which join those of the Miami are owned by Globe people. During the lowest ebb of the depression last fall the Lew ishons offered the Inspiration people $1 ,000, 000 for their interests. The proposition was refused. The Inspir- ation owners figure that they have a property that is worth considerably more.
 That the Gfla Valley, Globe & Northern road will be extended to the properties of the Miami Copper com. pany within the next 60 days there is little doubt. While no official in- formation has been given cut, how ever, there is plenty of evidence at hand leading to the conclusion that work will be commenced on this ex- tension ecIly in May and that with q large force of workmen it VII s'e speedily completed.
 The Miami Copper company, with unlimited means at it's disposal and owners of a property of fabulous richness, has completed arrange ments for the construction of a large reduction plant at their mine and they win want this road for hauling the machinery and other ma terials and for pulling out ore when mining is on in real earnest.
 By mining men who have exam ined the proDerties. the Miami is considered the making of one of the biggest copper mines in the coun- try. There is an ore body in sight so large that figures seem exagger- ated, and the cost of production is very low. The mine is located in a district rich in mineral and the eX- tension Of the railroad will bring it into prominence. That a town will spring up lin the vicinity of the Miami is certain and with railroad facilities will prove of great benefit to Globe

BUYING POWER IN THE MARKET
 STILL SHOWING
Copper Stocks That Are the Strongest - Denn Arizona, Shattuck and Sup. & Pitts. Remain About Same.
(By Frank J. Graf.)

Today's market still shows that there is considerable buying power in the market and that the demand for stocks is good. Copper dividend paying stocks are eagerly sought after, and those that are in the pros pective dividend class are also being well supported. Copper Range, Old Dominion and Butte Coalition are about the strongest on the board. Cop per Range pays her dividend onNthe 2 of the present month ana this fact very likely has helped to ad- vance the stock. Greene Cananea and Superior t& Pfttsburg were also well protected during the entire mar ket
 Denn-Arizona and Shattuck remain about the same, with little trading either way. Globe Consolidated and Black Mountain continue to hold firm at six and five and one quarter.

Echoes From Latest Play
of Big Stick.

would willingly pass over the
conduct of Admiral Brownson be-
cause of his past service, but it
becomes imperative to stamp
with disapprovaI the behavior,
which, if followed throughout the
navy generally, would literally
ruin the navy's efficiency.
There is no room for differ
ence of opinion as to the gross
inpropriety of the Admiral's con-
duct in resigning sooner than
carry out the orders of his su-
perior officers in such a matter.
The officers of the navy must
remember that it is not merely
childish, but in the highest de-
gree reprehensible to permit Ell
ther personal pique, wounded
vanity or personal feeling to rem
der them disIoyal to the inter-
ests of the navy and, therefore,
to the country as whole.
The different bureaus of the
department, the different branch
es of the service, must act in CO.
ordination and the questions that
arise between them must be set
tied by the secretary of the ma
Wy and the president.
The action of the late chief of
the bureau, Admiral Brownson,
was unseemIy and improper and
undoubtedly has been prejudicial
to the interests of the navy.
1t is we'll that defects should
be pointed out without historical
exaggeratfon or malicious un-
truthfuiness, while it is highly
reprehensibIe to exploit them in
grossly exaggerated form.
