BIG ORE BODIES ARE
 DEVELOPING AT GLOBE

GLOBE. Oct. l2.-Th" expansion oi mining in Globe district this year has been greater than in all the other cor rer districts of Arizona combined. That is a broad statement Sa; one easily susceptible of proof. Nearly all the other districts of importance have reached the limit of development as far as new territory is concerned. The only direction of growth possible Tor them is the further development of the old properties. Globe district, howev. CT, is so extensive in area the proven mineral belt being about thirty eight miles long by twelve miles wide - that the quarter of it mas not yet been prospected, and fifty years hence the limit of expansion will not have been reached.
 Of dozen mining companies ae- lively operating in Globe district ten of them have made important strikes of ore within the past six or seven months.
 Foremos, among these is the Old Dominion, which has made some re nrarkable developments on the l4tn level. and on the 10th and lt2h levels at the east end of the mine. The crosseut in block 1, on the lt4h level, has been driven through sixty feet Of good sulphide ore. The erosscut in block 2 is in the ore fifteen feet and it is still better sulphide. Another erosscut in block is expected 10 cut the sulphide vein within a few days. The 10th and l2 level east drifts have been in the very rich orc-cuprite, na. tive copper and cholcopyritc-for sev- cral hundred feet and uprases from those levels are also in fine ore.
 The Miami Copper Company has pro bably the most notable discovery in so far as the amount of ore developed is concerned. The amount of ore said ! to be blocked out month ago at the Red Rock shaft of the Miami company was 7.OO0.O0O tons. Since that time sulpbides have been struck in the Red Springs shaft 2l5O feet northwest of ' the Red Rock shaft, and also on the Keystone property southwest of the Miami property.
 In the same section the Warrior ! Copper Company has opened high grade ore body on the 2jO foot level of ! the Montgomery mine, over 350 feet ! long. The west crosscut at last ac counts had penetrated this ore body sixty.fve feet, the ore averaging 2o per cent copper, and had not reached the hanging wall, while the east cross cut was in ore for thirty.fve feet that assayed l6 per cent.
 The Superior & Boston, four and one half miles northeast of Globe, is de. veloping one of the finest bodies of opened to vertical depth of nearly 300 feet and along the strike of the vein for 3j0 feet from the west end line of the Great Eastern claim. The average width of the ore shoot is about ten feet and the copper contents averages over ten per cent.
 The same ore shoot has been opened by the Arizona Commercial Copper com pany on the Black Hawk claim for LOG feet west of tho Great Eastern, and the lode was cut last week in the com pany's Eureka shaft, nearly 100 fee, west of the old Black Hawk workings
 The Globe Consolidated, which until n few months ago had developed noth ing of much value, has recently made n succession of strikes which practical ly insures the company good mine Two sulphide veins have been opened which are now furnishing shipping ore In one of these veins, the Gem, the or, is seven feet wide and runs about ( per cent copper, 4i per cent sulphur and 3S per cent iron,
