BENSON, Jan. 14.-Last week the MayfoWer Mining Company made the second payment on the property they are working in Johnson Camp. The amount was paid in cash. Mir. and Mrs. George Sherrer received over S2000 of the money, and Louis Eze- kiel, of Tucson, received the remaind- CT, his interest being onethird
 The Mayflower shipped two car loads of ore last month, one to Fl Paso and one to Douglas. which was taken out while prospecting to find the trend of the ore bearing ledge. An incline shaft is now down about 65 feet and in still progressing. but will be discontinued next month as the company has decided to sink a 5xS vertical shaft on the hanging wall side of the ledge A contract will be let at that time for the first three hun dred feet of this shaft. which the man. agement intends to sink at least 800 feet, and 1900, if necessary, to get below the lime and enter the main ore body, which geologists and mining ex- perts have decided is deposited be- tween eight and twelve hundred teet below the surface on this property.
 At the annual meeting of the stock holders which was held in Johnson on December 31, J. D. Sullivan Of I940 Folsom street, San Francisco, vas elected president of the company and J. M. Gully, also of San Francisco was elected secretary.

PUBLIC SHES CASTOR
 INTO THE MARKET
Plainly Evident That the People at large.A Buying Cop
 per Stocks.
By Frank J. Graf.)


 That the public is getting into the market is plainly noticed by today's market as the demand for copper stocks was so strong today that all stocks were forced to a new level that had not been noticed for some time past. The restoring of the national banks back. to cash basis has had its effect and money Is in much better form which allows the public to han dle it without any fear of seeing tight money again at least for some time to come. The demand for copper stocks becomes greater each day. Amalgamated opened at s52.50 and was steady all day closing at $53.5O. The stocks that gained and held their strength today were North Butte. Butte Coalition, Copper Range, Calu- met & Arizona. The local stocks were not. affected to any great extent, al though they all held well. Superior & Pittsburg was strong the entire day at s12.03 bid with none coming out under that figure. Shattuck is we'll supported at s17.00. Denn Arizona cannot be bought at less than S4.50. Greene Cananea fails to come out un- der S7.25 and looks as though $73S and S7.50 will locate but very little The market looks as though we might see better prices tomorrow. Short in terests in the market have been com pelled to cover.

NEGOTIATING
 FOR PURCHASE
 OF PROPERTY
Stated That English Syndicate Is Desirous of Getting Hold of Arizona Apache In North of County.

TUCSON, Jan. s14.--It has been learned that negotiations are now on between an English syndicate and the Arizona-Apache company which owns a group of mines in the Catalina mountains.
 The outcome of the negotiations will probably be known following a meeting which is scheduled to be held in Los Angeles.
 Major F. R. Burnham, F. J. Pope and ". J. Guthrie of Pasadena and H. l.. Wheatley. an Englishman wno made. the trip to the properties. re- turning to Tucsn on Saturday night and left for California.
 WI. Guthrie is president of the Arizona-Apaehe company which ac- quired the Foran group of claims about year ago This company has done considerable work on the prop critics with good showings.
 The attention Of the English sym dicate was attracted to the mines and it was for the purpose of making an examination that the California min ing experts were sent here.
 At the Los Angeles confsfence at which the negotiations will be con tinued it is quite prbable that John Hays Hammond, the celebrated min ing engineer, will be present as he is now in that city. It is understood that F. J. Pope. who was here with the party is one of his engineers.
 Major Burnham on the trip was seized with fever which he contract ed while on his tour of South Africa as a scout for the English army and he was quite i'll for time. It was necessary to carry him for a portion of he distance on an improvised stretcher. He recovered quickly. how ever. after reaching the city and the effects of his illness had nearly all worn off when he left here with the party for California
 Much interest attaches to the ne gotiations which are under way and if an agreement can be reached the English syndicate will likely take over the properties.
 It is currently reported that should this occur the group of mines would be operated on an extensive scale and the Catalina mining district will become one of the largest in the coun, try.

 Tae stock market today shows fur ther improvement, especially the New York and Boston listed stocks but ow- ing to crippled condition of the teIe- graph service. reports are late in com ing in, and it is almost impossible to do any trading in these stocks except on open orders. Calumet & Arizona advanced two points; Amalgama-ad and Copper Range each three points, and the balance of the list all show splendid gains.
 The curbs are frming up consid- erable and stocks are becoming more scarce. Superior & Pittsburg closed strong at s12.25 bid. East Butte also shows a one-half/ peint gain. The whole list looks strong and we look for substantial advances. before the close of the week.

GROUND HOG SEES SHADOW

Because Colonel Welsh Took
Exceptions 10 story

When Marse Ground Hog emerged from
his cave of gloom Sunday morning, the
bright sun so blinded his eyes that at first
he did not see his shadow. But after he
wiped his eyes and put on his blue glasses,
he became satisfied that It wasn't the glare
of the snow that blinded him wholly, but
II was Old Sol. He took chew of tobacco,
wiped off his glasses. sighed, and crawled
back into his burrow for another six weeks

Colonel Welsh, weather forecaster, is
ordinarily mild-mannered man, but he is
also man OF intense vindictiveness, as is
reflected in this same sunlight that en-
abled the ground hog to see his shadow
A few days ago Colonel Welsh was quoted
as predicting the ground hog would not see
his shadow and spring consequently would
be here in a little while. Colonel Welsh
lost his even tenor and impasslonately
denied ever making such a prediction.
"Ill get even" he was understood to
mutter.
1t is verify believed the colonel, at the
time he was quoted, had every intention
of sending clouds instead of sun Sunday to
prevent the pig from seeing his shadow
and protect his people from six weeks more

orders for the clouds and bring out the

PORTLAND FIGHT ON AGAIN
james r. Burns Seeking 20 Get
Glimpse of Records of
COMPANY.
ID Omaha Yesterday.

CHEYENNE. wyo., Feb. 2.-(SpecialD-
The fight between James f. Burns, the
Colorado Springs millionaire, and the pres
ent officers and directors OF the Portland
Gold Mining company, was resumed here
Saturday by the attorneys for both sides.
Judge Murat Masterson of Colorado
Springs. counsel for Mr.. Burns, has been
here for several days for the perpose of
securing an injunction to restrain the Off
GERS and directors of the Portland company
from adjourning it's forthcoming meeting
before Burns has a chance to examine the
books and other records of the company.
Mr.. Burns has repeatedly charged that he
has been denied the privileges of examining
the books of the concern, despite the fact
that he is the largest individual stock
holder, and a year ago at the annual meet
ing here he charged the officers with mis-
management. trickery and with conspiring
to prevent him from exercising his full
rights as a stakeholder Following the last
meeting Mr.. Burns applied for a writ to
compel the Portland company to show its
books, but this matter has never been
settled.
The annual meeting of the company oc-
ours In this city on Monday February 3,
and Burns seeks to compel the officers to
exhibit the records for his inspection. Sat
urday morning when Attorney Masterson
appeared In district court to argue his pc
tition for a writ of injunction, he was con-
fronted by Tyson Dimes and Attorney
Chinn counsel for the Portland company.
1t is reported that their presence at this
time was a great surprise to Mr. Master
son. Their presence is explained by the
fact that a letter written by Mr.. Master
son to a friend accidentally fell into the
hands of the Portland officers Mr.. Mas
terson had written that he was coming to
Cheyenne to get out an injunction. and be-
ing thus warned the Portland company
sent its attorneys to contest the situation
with Mr.. Masterson.
The hearing was before Court Commits
sioner w. p. Carroll, who will take no ac-
tion until the return OF Judge r. N. Mat
son, who is now In the northern part of
the state and may not return before the
middle of the week in which event Mr..
Burns will probably fail to secure the in
junction.
Judge Masterson used some very strong
terms in denunciation of the acts of the
officers of the Portland company. The
fight is now on to the finish and the out
come will bo awaited with interest
