AN IMPORTANT
 DISCOVERY IN
 GLOBE DISTRICT
Blocking Out by the Warrior Company-Work at Mont goemy Mine Being Pushed. Steam Hoist Installed.

One of the most important copper discoveries in Globe district is report ed to have been made in the Mont gomery mine of the Warrior Copper company. Superintendent E. Nj. WnIJe has hoeil steadily prosecuting deyel- opment for the past two years, the preater part of the time shipping enough ore to pay for the work, and he deserves great credit for his sue essful management. The Silver Belt says.
 Development work and blocking by the Warrior company have progressed very satisfactorily during the past few weeks The output of ore from this work has so increased during this week as to make it necessary to more than double the number of teams to relieve the ovsrfiowing chutes under groand and the ore bins at point of shipment
 At the Montgomery mine the work of sinking the deep winze is being pushed and to further expedite the work a steam hoist and compressor are being installed to replacS the gasoline engine now in use The crosscut from this winze to the north at the 35e-foot level encountered a body of high grade ore. Ninety-fiye feet of drifting to the west has been done on this body, both east and west breasts being in ore. A 20-foot cross cut to the north has been run in ore without finding the footwall. As this ore body on the 20O-foot level is 100 feet wide the footwall is rot antic- ipated for some time.
 CrosScutting south from the Winnie shaft which is about 1900 feet west of the Montgomery deep winZe discloses the ore body at that plac23 proving it to be one of the large, if not the larg- est high grade ore bodies yet discov- cred in the Globe district, it's total length being opensd up for a distance of at least 160O feet, the major part of which is rich enough in copper 70 make profitable shipping at present quotations.
 The development work planned py the company and to be carried out at once necessitates a considerable in crease in the working. force which, in deed has been more than doubled the past month
 Old Dominion.
 Satisfactory progress was made during the week in every department The production of ore was heavy, showing some increase. Four fur naces were supplied and the capaci- ty of the mines at the mine and smell ter taxed to care for the ore hoisted A large amount of development was Gnder way and some new work das been started. A shaft below the lith level is ready for two sets of tim bers, which will be put in today. Sink ing will then proceed more rapidly The bottom of B shaft below the l2th level is being cleaned out preparato- ry to sinking. Joe Mitchell and Dan NLittlejohn, contractors for sinking the two-cOmpartmsnt shaft on the west side of the creek, nave made good start The contract calls for depth of 300 feet, but sinking will not stop at that level. No work is being done in c shaft, but the west drIlt on the 18th level is being driven toward the region of c shaft for the purpose of draining the tenth level and intermediate ground. When this shall have been accomplished the sinking of shaft below the lOth level will be started.
 The flow of water from the west end of the mine on the 10tn level is COnIFOllCu Dy HCSutCuL AOOlS pAeNSCN -4- the crosscut in Block i. These doors are fitted with valves which can be readily connected with pipes and the flow of water regulated. There has been no decrease of water flow ing into the mine, most of which, comes from the PinaI creek side. The pumps are raising 4,500,000 gallons.
 The region of the big west ore body on the 10th level is now comparative ly dry and good headway is being made toward the reopening of the OIt stope. The east end of this stope has been restored and the drift is nOW within F feet of the square sets al the west end. This stope has been closed ever since the mine was flood ed several years ago and owing te the ground being very wet and heaV! until recently attempts to reopen Il were futile. This is one of the larges and richest ore bodies in the mine heinz a brown oxide of copper aver aging about 10 per cent, caTryllts considerable iron and very little sin cate. An intermediate level, betweei the 9th and 10th, was opened sever q wears ago to tap this body and It | still yielding high grade ore on tha level The 5th and 9th levels are nD'
