industry in Arizona and who keep close watch of the developments, fig ure that the western portion of the territory will require over SlO,OOO,OOO worth of machinery to carry out the plans now made for enlargement of operations and this figure covers but an incOnsiderable area of the territory. In the first place the Ray has definite ly decided to install 2000-ton concen- trator in the Kelvin district and it is believed that such plant as contem- plated will cost at least S3.O00,O00 be- fore it is ready for operation. In the same district the London-Arizona is about ready to close arrangements for large amount of capital for improve ments which include complete re- duction plant and the Humboldt smell ter will need at least S250.000 worth of new machinery to replace that which has been allowed to go to ruin since the plant closed down. The Kelvin Calumet. also in the vicinity of the Ray, has decided to place itself in con- dition for large output and it is en- tirely probable that the complete re- duction facilities proposed will cost in the vicinity of SI, ,50O, ,OOO. The Miami. at Globe. will spend S3,000,000 on equipment besides building railroad connection of about eight miles and the Inspiration, adjoining it, will doubtless be ready for similar i'm provements in the near future. Re cent damage at the Arizona Copper company's plant necessities the re- placing of S2OO,O0O worth of buildings and machinery, the Octave, Big Stick and several other we'll known proper ties are installing new plants and the power plants on Fossil creek is being built at a large expense. There are, of course. many other properties that might be mentioned, but this list should he enough to convince the mer- chants of Los Angeles that Arizona presents an unrivaled field for the ex- tension of local Mining Review.

Bill Against Fake Mining Shares.

The Legislature of New York State is considering a bill that dimes at fake mining companies. The bill was in troduced by Assemblyman Draper, and is entitled ''An act to amend the penal code to prohibit the sale or of fering for sale of worthless shares or certificates of stock in mining corpora tions." The bill is one that has met favor in various respects, but certain of its crudities will, says MT. Draper, be cured by amendment.
 The general tenor of the measure is along the lines suggested by legisla- tors who have been investigating the subject. That is, it provides for a cer- tificate to be filed with the secretary of state by those who offer mining stock for sale. This certificate gives information that will show the people concerned to be trustworthy, and it must be sworn to.
 Other provisions of the bill are that the certificate to be filed must contain the amount of stock issued and the amounnt of stock held, amount of cash received for stock, value of the con- pany's properties, record of dividend S declared, location of properties, amount of work done in developing properties. The amount of money spent in developing the properties and description of plant and machinery of the establishment.
 Other provisions are as follows:
 Punishment for Violation.-Any per. son who sells or offers for sale within thIs stat any shares or certificates ot stock in any mining corporation which has not filed a statement in accordance with the foregoing provisions is guilty of a misdemeanor.
 Punishment for Violation of Preced ing Sections by Corporations, Etc. - Any corporation or officer or agen thereof or any broker selling or of fering for sale shares or certificates O stock in any mining corporation whicl has not filed the statement in accord ance with the provisions of this chap

Fieux's Theory of c ,GIn of Placer
 Gold Deposits.

The current theory of the formation of gold-bearing alluvial deposits as sumes that the gold existed originally in the central nucleus of the earth in the forms of sulphide and telluride, which subsequently, became dissolved in the waters of hot springs and were deposited together with gelatinous silica. Thus were formed veins of au- riferous quartz which, in consequence of erosion, gave rise to alluvial strata. containing particles of metallic gold.
 NJ. Fieux, the noted French scien- tist. however, asserts that the erosion of outcropping auriferous veins of quartz does not account for all deposits of metallic gold. He finds that some gold-bearing strata show no trace of quartz, but consist wholly of clay with fragments of diorite or diabese, and moreover are so situated as to pre- clude the existence of quartz veins. He has seen beds of streams become
  they showed no trace of quartz. Fin ally, in certain auriferous strata which contain much quartz not particle of gold is found in the quartz, though some gold occurs in the diabese which accompanies it.
 Hence Fieux concluded that the erO- sion of quartz veins cannot be the strata and, furthermore, that the al most constant presence, in those strata. of heavy basic rocks, containing diorite, amphibolic schist. and diabese, indicate that native gold is one of the subsidiary ingredients of those rocks.
 According to this new theory, there fore, certain of the heavy eruptive rocks have carried with them in their eruption some of the gold existing in the metallic state in the central nu- cleus of the earth. After reaching the surface these rocks were OXidized by contact with the air, and eroded by water, which washed away the lighter materials and left the heavier includ- ing the gold, says the Scientific Amer ican.
 This NJ. Fieux repards as the true theory of the formation of gold-hear- ing alluvial strata, in general, the ero- sion of quartz veins being only an oc- casional cause of the enrichment of those strata.

Big Strikes Near Humboldt.

News of a most sensational character regarding fabulously rich gold strikes near Humboldt, in Humboldt county, Nevada, are beginning to reach this city, and one of them, at least, has received positive standardization at the hands of no less an authority than John R. Turner, superintendent of the Im- lay company's mines in that section. yesterday conveyed the information that parties leasing a property adjoin- ing the Nevada-Hum boldt company's property, and about one mile west of Inlay, had opened upatwo feet of what he believed to be the richest ore ever struck in such quantities in Nevada. Nothing about values is given, but Mir. Turner's declaration that it is the biggest thing in the way of gold strike ever made in the state is evil dence enough that something alto gether out of the ordinary has hap pened.
 From another source came the infor- nation that somebody over there had discovered l2 feet of ore that would go 5,OOOS per ton, and from the same source it was learned that strike re- gently made in the Nevada Humbo company's property was producing ore worth l,20OS per ton in gold. Still another strike is reported to have been made in the same region, and samples of ore from it are expected 10 ~@lch this city soon.
 According to the map of Hum bol, | county, these strikes must all have been made at points not more than five or six to ten miles from the South ern Pacific railroad, and something like p miles northeast from Seven Troughs.-Salt Lake Herald.

In addition to the companies operat- ing their own smelters, we have nu- merous smaller ones, which are now in their infancy, being compelled to ship their ores to custom smelters. The history of the various companies of this district have all been interest ing ones. Well do old timers remem- Der the time when the original shares of the Arizona Copper company went begging at SO cents, while today they are worth considerable over Sl00. Looking back at the Shannon for a period of eight years, we find that the stock of that company sold for S2.5O per share, while today it is around the Sl5 mark, and the same might he applied to the D. c. company with accuracy. For this very reason many of the small companies operating in this district, the stock of which is sell ing at exceeding low prices, will, within ten years. show a similar diff ference. Era.

Toneon Smeiter IS Sold.

The International Smelling and Re lining Company in which Cole and Ryan are the prime factors and which was recently organized with a capital of S5O,OOO,OOO gold to combat the American Smelling and Refining Com pany, purchased the plant of the Con- pania Metalurgical de TorreOn last week; ;Lo purclo1s price being S3,- GOO, 900 gold.
 E. Matthewson, of the Amalgamated Copper Company, and Dr. L. D. Rick etts, general manager of the Greene Consolidated, recently made an exam ination of the TorreOn plant and tie purchase was effected immediately up- on receipt of their report.
 The purchase also includes the lease on the Cabrillas mine. near Monterey, large fuxing lead property, and title to the San Diego mine, in the Santa Barbara district of Chihuahua.
 The officers of the International Smelling and Refining Company are John D. Ryan. president of the Ameri- can Copper Company, of Montana; Thos. F. Cole, president of the Greene Cananea Copper Company: William Rockefeller, Of the Standard Oil Con- pany; U. H. Broughton, president of the Utah Consolidated Copper Com pany; w. k. Corey, of the United States Steel Corporation, and H. c. Frisk, of Pittsburg.
 According to reports, they have de- clared war on the American Smelling and Refining Company, controlled by the Guggenheim interests, and the United States Smelling, Refining and Mining Company, controlled by R. D. Evans, A. F. Holden, Edward Clark and other Bostonians.
 The purchase of the Torreon Smell ter is the first step of the Internation- al Shelter and Refining Company in Mexico, where they begin their three cornered fight. It is reported that the purchase of this plant is to be followed by the purchase or control of one or more additional plants in Mexico and a number of valuable mining proper ties as well.
 With Mir. Rockefeller and the Cole Ryan interests, the United States Steel Corporation and the many mill lions at the command of these allied interests, the fight promises to be a spectacular one in which the hereto fore two unconquerables, the Standard Oil and the Shelter trust, will clash.

The three big mining companies of the Clifton Morenci district, which are now outputing at the rate of 6.0OO,OOO pounds of copper per month, are all in active working order, and should the price of the metal reach a higher mark, it is a safe prediction that this district will produce even better av- craze. Like many of the other big copper camps of this territory the Clifton Morenci district has gradually
 increased until today it is one of the most important factors in the wonder ful record of Arizona as the leading copper producer of the United States.

Cordoba is the rain center of Mexi- co, according to figures just compiled by A. V. Temple, industrial agent of the Mexican Central railway. The heavy rain belt of Mexico extends along the entire Gulf coast of the Re public, beginning at Puerto Mexico and extending as far north as Mata- moros, but beyond Tampico to the north the rainfall decreases notice ably. The state of Veracruz receives the heaviest rainfall of any State in Mexico. Cordoba's annual precipita- tion for last year was lll.9 inches. Orizaba received 71.S inches. Tapa- chula, State of Chiapas, comes second in the Republic with 992 inches.-Jal- isco Times.

This decrease is to be charged to the gold placers and copper mines, as most of the other mining industries of the Territory show an increase in value of output.

ILLEGAL MERGER
GOVERNMENT SHOWS THAT TWO
ROADS HAVE JOINT AGENCY
Attorney for Railroads Claim the
Roads Were Not Covering the
Same Territory.

Cincinnati. o., Feb 1O.-Seeking
to prove that joint agencies and Joint
freight solicitors for the Union and
Southern Pacific railway indicated an
Illegal merger, the government Tues
day put eleven witnesses on the stand
in the hearing before Special Exam
iner Williams.
The government brought out hte
fact that the roads had joint agencies
and solicitors and agents, with creden-
tials representing them as doing
business for the two railroads. This
was according to the testimony, very
different from the previous state Of
affairs when the representatives Of
the two roads were actively competi-
tors.
Attorneys for the railroads sought
to bring out that the lines were not
actually covering the same territory,
excep west Of Ogden and sought OK
pressions from witnesses in support
