AZ TIE sMELrERs.

At the Calumet and Arizona smelt. CT the construction work on the en- largement to the plant, heretofore de scribed in these columns, is making good progress. The frame for a new converter has been completed and sx- cayations are now being made for moving the four converter stacks in operation at this time from their pres ent position to the south side of the smeIter building. When the convert CTS are moved they will be connected with the new smokestack already completed. Then the work on the new furnace can be started, as the material has already. arrived. During the last year the c. and 4. has done a vast amount of construction work at their plant, including a new power house, a new machine shop and a new blacksmithshop. In the new lpowerbouse all the machinery which will be required for the enlarged plant is in place with the exception or a blower engine for the No. furnace. The old wooden ore bins are now oe- ing torn away so that the new blow uipes can be placed in position. The old bins have not been used except for storing surplus ore since the high line was constructed more than a year ago. During the present week there has been an increased quantity of coke coming in from the ovens This coke has been piled along the sfdetracks, where it will be picked up by the steam shovel when required for the furnaces. The c. and A has never carried a large amount of sur plus ore, but at the present time more ore is coming from the mines at B.s- bee than can be handled iI the TUT naces. so that the surplus piles are growing larger Five furnaces are De nag run to the limit of their capacity, which is 900 tons each. When the present plans of enlargements have been completed the c. and A. smelter will. have a capacity of more than 300e tons daily.
 s. A. Henry is planting about twen- ty acres Of the valley land, just south of the C. and A, to variety or crops. He will use the surplus water from the smeiter for irrigation and expects to raise a large amount of
 marketable vegetables. Mir. Henry cultivated only a few acres of this 1aad last year and the result was sur ficIently profitable to cause him to ir- creaGe the acreage this year
 At the Copper Queen shelter there is nothing worthy of mention this week Eight furnaces are in blast. but they are not being crowded to their extreme limit The reverberatory furnace, which was completed last

WEEK AT MINES IN W AR REIN
 DISTRICT SLOW
Copper Queens New Power House Is Attracting Atten- tion-What Is Doing at the Other Big Mines.

During the past week there has been very little of interest in the local mining situation with the ex- ception of the fact that the new Copper Queen power house which will form such an essential portion of the new system of hoisting ore is rapidly nearing completion and will be put into commission be fore very long. The slight changes which have been recorded in the price Of the metal have had practi- cally no effect locally.
 In spite of the fact that the sit uatton in regard to the actual amount of metal on hand has in> proved greatly in favor of the pro ducers. and orders for a vast amount for future delivery have been placed, but little of this improvement has been reflected in the quoted price of the metal. During the week it has fiuctuated slightly. but last evening stood at about the opening price for the week.
 The placing in commission of the new Copper Queen power house is now being looked forward to with the greatest interest, as that will be practically the beginning of the test of the new system of hoisting ores from the mines and loading them on cars. Experts declare that the new method will prove very economical and will materially reduce the cost of mining. but the actual operation is looked forward to as the real test.
 Although Ihere have ben a num- Der of bids submitted on the son struction aad machinery of the new Shattuck smelter which will be erect sd at Douglas, others are expected which the management stated yes terday might not come in until tow ards the close of the month. It was stated that as soon as it was pos sible to compare the bids and award the contract, work would be com menced on the plant
 In regard to the number of men employed at the Copper Queen and Calumet & Arizona the pay rolls for the past month show the forces to be practically the same as in March. At the Shattuck and Denn properties operations are going on steadily with a reduced force. At the former about twenty five miners are engaged in opening up new ground. and at the latter diamond drilling from one of the lower levels is engaging all of the attention. It is understood that another diamond drill bore will be started within week.
 Among the smaller operators there has been practically no change. A number of different properties are being worked on a small scale, and good results are being obtained.

The management gives no encourage ment to the idea that the Queen will be starting up additional furnaces in the near future and even with the in- creased amount of concentrates, which will soon be coming from Ma cozari. 1t is not expected that more furnace capacity will be required. A second casting machine is under con struction and will be ready for opera ticn some time during next week.

AT cANANEA.

A mining man, who is supposed to have inside information regarding ln- tentions of the Greene-Cananea com pany, gave it as his opinion a few days ago that Cananea would proba- bly resume the production of copper within the next sixty days. It was his opinion that the Greene -Cananea people would not allow their plant to lay idle indefinitely, awaiting the ad- vance in the price of copper. Dur ing the past week the head officials of the Greene-Cananea, who were in Cananea two weeks ago, have been in the City of Mexico, accompanied by Colonel Greene and General Manager Ricketts. According to a correspond ent at Cananea these officials were in the Mexican capital for the purpose of laying before the Mexican authori- ties the facts and figures of the pres ent condition of affairs, whereby 1t is impossible to produce copper at the present price of the red metal, and unless a reduction is secured in the duties on imports the company can not resume operations without suffer- ing a great loss. The company will try to get the duty removed. if possi- ble, so that they will be able to pro OuCe the req meIal NlL0ln a lew cenlS of the cost prevailing at Bisbee and other places in the southwest They -will show to the Mexican authorities that if the duty is lowered or re moved that they will give emp-oy- ment to hundreds of citizens of the republic that are at present without employment and in destitute circum- stances, besides increasing the reve- nue of the government on the produc- tion that will be turned out
 Should the desired reduction be made on the articles in question it will be the means O following a mum Der of properties in Sonora to begin operations that have not been able to do so on account of the high duty on these commodities.
 It is expected that during the pres ent week some definite answer will be received from the City of Mexico in regard to the matter and upon this word depends whether or not the smelters of the Greene-Cananea com pany will be fired up soon or remain idle until the price of the red metal has advanced above 16 cents.

Chicago, Aug. 17.-Editors of every

which was made known tonight by
Col. Moses Wetmore, chairman of the
finance committee, Is distinct from
the effort already inaugurated by the
national committee to obtain money
through financial reports in each
state. Col. Wetmore said:
1--WE are going to get money to run
this campaign; make no mistake
about that. The Republicans know
where to get theirs, no matter what
contributions they may have to turn
back to comply with the law. Every
source that we know of will be tapped
and the result of our efforts so far
are fairly encouraging. The Gnan

BRYAN DENIES SELLING out TO PENNSYLVANIA

Fairview, Lincoln, Aug. 1.-THE
most omportant happening today was
the emphatic denial given by w. j..
Bryan to a story printed in Pittsburg
this morning that he had "sold out"
to the Kerr faction in order to ac-
complish the defeat of Col. James M.
Guffey for national committeeman.
The price alleged to figure in the
transaction was 100000 as cam
paign contribution. The charge is said
have been made that Bryan made

porters had not come forward with
the money. Mr.. Bryan declared thai
he had never heard of the offer OF

to the Chicago weather bureau show
that the downpour4 was general in
Indiana, Ohio, Wisconsin and Michf-
gan. The fruit crop in Michigan,
saved from a second year of ruin,
is valued at four million to five mil
lion dollars each year. The menace
of confiagration in this city be-
cause Of the tinder dryness was re-
moved, and the babies, that had gasp

were given relief worth much more

Capt. Haines' Brother Seems
to Have Been Cause
of Row 4. H..
He Killed a Man II Years
Ago and This Will Be
Looked Up

New York, N Y, Aug. 17.-Of far
more interest than the arraignment
in the police court today of Capt.
Peter G. Haines, Jr., who shot and
instantly killed Annis on Saturday at
the Bayside Yacht club landing when
his brother, T. Jenkins Haines held
at bay a crowd of yachtsmen, was
the evidence that came into the hands
of District Attorney DARN, bearing
on the motive for the shooting.
1t was established that Capt.
Haines and Mr.. Annis were on such
friendly terms that they went auto
mobling together as recently as Moy
20, last. It was also disclosed that
there were two women in the party
and the police believe that the wo--
men were Mrs. Haines and Mrs. An
mis-. The police records proved
that the men were motoring togeth-
er, for a policeman arrested the party
for speeding on Ocean parkway. The
case was postponed in court several
times and it is still on the calendar.
The party was in Mr.. Annis' auto
mobile and the police held Annis in
S100 bail. Annis only had two dol
lars, so the police were about to lock
| him up when Capt. Haines stepped
forward and handed the prisoner
four $40 gold pieces, thus obtaining
his release. The names of the two
women were not taken by the police,
but from the conversation that took
place in the station, it was generally
supposed that they were the wives Of
the two men.
.'I have also been told by friends
of both Captain Haines and Mr.. An
mis- that this friendship ceased after
that talk Captain Haines had with
his brother, T. Jenkins Haines," said
the district attorney.
''T intend to have T. Jenkins Haines
tried as an accessory before and dur
ing the act, as I believe he is as
guilty as his brother 1t was his let
ter to Captain Haines that made the
latter hurry home from the Philip
pines and question his wife regard
ing her alleged conduct with Mr.. An
mis- and it was T. Jenkins Haine:
who prevented anyone from prevent
ing Captain Haines from shooting Mr.
Annis."
Another remarkable feature of tht
case is the friendship which exists
between Mrs. Annis and Mrs. Claudi;
} Haines, Captain Haines' wife. Mrs

e8sS "Wait until the troops CO." Is the
word that has been passed around
town and, recognizing the strength
Of the undercurrent in state, city and
county officials are taxing every eff
fort to turn public opinion toward
law and order To that end Governor
Deneen has been In conference with
4 officials, including the chamber of
commerce, Springfield Bar associa-
tion, and the Evangelical Minister'S
association. Evidence is not lacking
that many citizens who were knkown
to have evidence against the mob
and its leaders have deferred from
offering this to the states attorney
\ because Of threats Of violence made
against them anonymously.
1.-THE riot could scarcely have been
avoided and is not itself a disgrace
to the city. The real disgrace will
come IL the guilty are allowed to
escape, is the slogan Of the authori-
ties here now. The civic bodies are
asked to urge all good citizens to
reveal freely what testimony they
may know. Only slight evidence Is
likely to break through local preju-
dice and assure convictions, accord
ing to the police and other officials.
Stolen Goods Recovered.
The gathering Of evidence began
in earnest today. Policemen in plain
clothes were sent to search houses
of prisoners and suspects and as 9
result the police station looked like
a general store tonight. Groceries
Il hardware. men, boys and women's

recovered in great quantities, being

agreement and he suggested that the
proper persons to consult were mem
bers of the committee on credentials,
which decided the Pennsylvania con-
test.
Mr.. Bryan would not permit himself
to be drawn into further discussion
with the president of the Manufac-
turers' association, who. came out in
the press today with additional rea-
sons why the business men of the
country should not support the Dem
ocratic national ticket. This decision
was based on the fact that Mr.. Van
Cleve had failed to defend his former
contentious, but instead had shifted
the discussion to other questions.
