LARGER FORCE
At THE STONEWALL
SHAFT TO BE SUNK TO 800 FEET
AND LODE EXPLORED OLD
MINE SHOULD AGAIN BECOME
LARGE PRODUCER OF SILVER.

The McMilen-S tonewall Mining
company is making preparations to ma
terially increase their force and vigor-
ously push development work on their
fine property at McMillen, eighteen
miles east of Globe. A ear of mine
timbers will be sent out this morning
to Rice, whence the lumber will be
hauled by wagon to the mine, dis
tance of about % miles over very
good road
A small force has been employed
since last fall and development on the
mine has been carried on continuously
for more than year. Next Monday
fifteen miners will be added to the force
and three shifts will be employed in
sinking the shaft from 100 feet, its
present depth, to 300 feet, at which
depth the lode will be crosscut and
explored by drifts. V. Y. Smith who
organized the company, will continue to
act as superintendent.
Mention was made in these columns
very recently of the Stonewall Jackson
mine and its record as silver producer
In the first number of the Silver Belt,
issued May 2, 1878, the Stonewall Jack
son is spoken of. The shaft was then
down little more than 100 feet and
the body of pay ore was steadily in
creasing. The ore was divided into three
classes. The first and second class ore,
sorted to $4,000 and $4,000 per ton

at the base of the mountain, some 300
feet below those above, and at the dis.
lance of SIS feet a large deposit of good
ore was struck. Several shafts have
been sunk, all showing the ore. This
property has been thoroughly studied
from geological point as well as from
a mineral point, and all indications 90
to prove that an immense body of ore
is there. 1t is a tunnelling proposition,
thus saving the heavy expense of shaft
machinery, and from numerous assays
made would be a paying proposition
from the start This property lies in
the Dripping Springs wash, about seven
miles from Kelvin and the railroad.

mining properties in that section. There

The Ray Copper company has recent
ly purchased a track automobile to be
used for the convenience of the RAY
company officials. The Ray company
have several more working in few
weeks. All the holes drilled show ore.
The average depth has been $50 feet
and from all indications they have an
immense body of low grade ore. 1t will
be handled on a very large scale and
this fall there will be several hundred
men working at the mill and the mines.
There are other properties which are
hopeful of resuming work in the very
near future.

Large Sales of Metal Are Reported

Whether the demand will continue

minute desire to buy had spread
among the manufacturers. the price
was run up on them, and their desire to
buy was allowed to die out.
While manufacturers are buvng
freely, their purchases are for future
needs, and not to fill actual orders on
hand, so that their anxiety to purchase
now is likely to abate if prices are adj
vanced against them.
The best foundation for the advance
is the improvement in general bust
ness, and the feet that great many
mines cannot afford to sell copper ua-

MINES, MINING and the MARKETS

the extent of the profit taking was GER
tainly suggestive of the desire to liquid
ate securities at every favorable oppor-
tunity.
The crop reports are on the whole
highly satisfactory and. present indiea'
tions are for large yield of both corn
and cotton and fairly good harvest
of wheat The maintenance of high
prices for corn insures good returns to
the farmer, and indicates, moreover,
that the use Of corn for food is gradu-
ally increasing the world over. The
farmer today is far more prosperous
than any other class of producer, and
as his products are, after all, tn foun-
dation of business expansion, the pros
poets in the agricultural regions this
year are encouraging to those who look
for general business revival during
1909.
The stock market has now had a very
big advance, and evidences of inside
realizing are already apparent. Aside
from the better conditions noted above
the rise has been largely the result of
manipulation by few big operators
having securities to sell either in the
shape of stocks bought to stem the
panic or in the form of bond issues to
meet urgent railroad requirements.
Very likely they hope to invest the pro
ceeds of stock sales TO considerable
extent in the new bond issues on ad
vantageous terms. At any rate the de
sire TO lessen their load of stocks and
at the same time provide new capital
has keen the. chief basis of recent mar
ket activity. In this movement pow
erful banking interests have cooper
ated. This means that there are many
securities for sale and further bond
issues in prospect; that the market must
be judged accordingly and that the
leaders will work for higher prices and
sustain market activity as long as pos
sible. How far they will succeed re
mains to be seen. Having strongly ad-
vised purchases of stocks for some time
past now equally strongly advise
great caution in the making of pur
chases in the future. We are likely to
have a good trading market, but the
many favorable features have been full
ly discounted in the stock market by
the late prodigious rise.

Sheriff Hobley. He has no Jail in which
to confine his prisoners. The last legisla-
ture passed a bill turning the ancient and
venerable structure known as the Ray
mond street jail over to the board of cor
rections of New York city, which means
that the building must be used for crimi-
nal prisoners exclusively. Sheriff Hobley
was we'll aware after his election that in
turning over the Office to him today Mr..
FIaherty would also hand over the dozen
or SO civil prisoners he had been keeping
under lock and key in the Raymond street
institution, SO he hustled as never sheriff
did before to find a convenient home for
them. The best he could do was to sug-
gest that the department OF public build
ings buy a-vacant house and fit it I'D with
barred windows and doors and other up
to-date Jail comforts. The department
has done nothing about it as yet, and that
is why Sheriff Hobley is wearing deep fur.
