Tn" Arizona Commercial company will resume shipping ore from the Black Hawk mine na few days. Ship ments will be made to the old Domin- ion smelter. to the shannon smclter at Clifton and probably to the smelters at Douglass where that quality of ore is in great demand A statement to this effect was given the Silyer Belt by President \. L. Amster. who has been making an inspection of the com Dany's properties.
 Mir. Amstcr stated that his present visit to Globe has been the most satis- factory he has ever made. He made a personal investigation Qf under ground conditions at the Black Hawk mine and states that the permanency of the mine is assured. owing to recent developments on the 500 level. The Black Hawk vein has demonstrated it. self at that level. as being probably the trucst Assure in the district, owing to the fact that it has successivcly passed through the basic formations of the district and showing more strength thereafter than before. At the fifth level the vein shows stability and permanency and from indications on the west end taken with the de- velopments east of the shaft. MT.

 A suit will be brought by the Cham Der of Commerce in the name of some stockholder against the company for an accounting and the action will be instituted in the United States court here owing to the fact that a meet ing of the stockholders has been called for the evening of January 27. it was decided to delay filing the suit until after the stOckhOldres had met
 The irregularities charged against the officials of the Calumet & Globe company would fill a large sized book and there seems to be good ground for passing criminal action against the of ficials. They are alleged to have shared in the promotion profits. which on the first payment for the property were twice as much as all of the ori- ginal owners obtained and this in it. self is nasty business. On top of this the property was heavily loaded" by the promoters.
 It is also alleged by local stockhold CTS that the funds of the company were squandered, if not actually stolen and that no attempt was made to prove up the ground which the com pany had bonded.
 It is estimated that at least s40,O0O of Globe money was invested in C. & G. stock. about a fourth of the entire capitalization of the company, local

COPPER BELLE JUDGMENT.

The judgement that was recently sc cured by Paine. Webber & Co. against the Copper Belle Mining O.. for $272,- 229.04 in Pima county has been filed
 in the district court here by the at turneys for the plaintiff. It is expect ed that unless the minority stock holders take steps within the next 90 days to intercede, that an effort will be made to have the property sold to satisfy the judgment. At the present time there are several other suits beading against the company; one of Martin Costello, who is trying to fore close a mortgage that he has on the property, which case has been in the courts for d number of years and is now on appeal to the supreme court of the territory and on which case a de- cision is expected to he handed down at the present session of that court Tombstone PrOSDectOr

 The stock which has heretofore been sold at 50 cents, it is understood will be advanced to 75 cents on the first of February. and the fact that such step is iustifiable at this time of fi- nancial depression. speaks well for the mines During the last six months under the management of Superinten- dent Harrington, development has continued without interruption and over 900 feet of tunnels and drifts have been driven and something over 100 feet has been sunk in the two compartment shaft. The following concerning recent ore development and prospects is taken from the com panys literature:
 MT. Harrington has just opened up two new veins of silver orc; one on the Diamond Joe claim, which is 10 feet in width and one on the Sunny Side claim which is 4 feet in width. These discoveries are of vast import ance to the company and together with the last silver strike made by MT. Harrington on the S5-foOt level of No. will be a very large producer of silver ? shaft go to show that the Sultana will be a very large producer of silver as well as copper. Silver has now been opened up at four points on the property.
