Editorial Brick is Thrown at Lawson

The editor of Iron Ore throws a brick of abnormal size at Tom Law son, in the following:
 Ton Lawson has the thing for your money, wet process for the reduc- tion of ores. You will find, if you put your money with him that it will pipe sweating process, the moisture being mostly upon your forehead.
 Having exhausted his efforts in mines for the time he thinks a de- parture in q wet process would catch few new dollars. He put lot of people into Yukon, ditch in Alaska, which he promises will be wet as soon as it can be connected with a water supply. He has Gas and Trim ity, pretty dry picking for the people he deluded into buying these issues and now he wants to change his sys- tenn by unloading a bit of water in the shape of a new fangled method for reducing ores. Look out for Tom He's getting a dose ready that will not have the results you may antici- pate. There's lot of talk concern ing new reduction furnaces of late, but thus far they have shown nothing of practical value. We doubt if they will. At any rate we would shy wide at any process Tom Lawson would re- commend, his scheme being to pry loose another bit of money from the easy people of the country.

Shannon Mine is Shipping Now Daily.

J. T. Hazard who was in Bisbee from Courtland, is not only as enthusiastic as ever about the future of that camp but predicts that within a comparatively short time Glceson will be d factor in the mining world of no mean proportions.
 "The property of the Shannon Cop per company has been already devel- oped to a large extent" says Mir. Haz- ard, land it is a well known fact that under present difficulties they are shipping 100 tons daily. This they are compelled to haul by wagons to Pearce. As soon as the railroad is completed to Gleeson which at the outside will not be over two months, we have the assurance of the con- pany that the output will be largely increased.

OPERATIONS AT JEROME.
Company Has Resumed Operations After
 Shutdown of Six Months.

At the Jerome Verde Copper Co work which has again been resumed after a shutdown of about six months is progressing nicely and again the smoke is issuing from the smoke stack. The machinery, which has had thorough overhauling, runs as smoothly as possible and sinking in the shaft has begun and will be con tinued necessarily until the desired depth is attained. The water, which has caused much delay and trouble, is now being handled successfully.
 Superintendent Movies still con tiuues to sink at the Verde Copper, formerly the North Verde. Three shifts are now working and good pro- gress is being made.
 Work on the Butte & Verde prop erty is now progressing most satis- factorily. The work on the 300-foot drift recently started is showing up some fine indications and, if surface indications can be relied upon, an ore body of value will be opened up long before the contracted tunnel of 300 feet is completed.
 Superintendent Mulcaire Is in charge of the work, thus insuring a thorough and scientific exploration of the earth encountered in this dis tance.
 The Great Verde Copper is situated about ten miles below Camp Verde and has been known as the Rainbow group. A company of good, reliable mining men have taken over the property and an organized company formed to be known as the Great Verde Copper company.
 T. W. Nassauer, superintendent of the Lloyd Consolidated Copper com pany, was in Jerome and reported the mining outlook in his district as most encouraging. Work has been tenn porarily discontinued and many necessary repairs are being made and operations will again be resumed in the near future at this property.
 The property of Messrs. Reed and Barter, known as the Extension of the Lloyd Consolidated. is giving most encouraging results. Work has just begun and some fine surface ores are already in evidence.
 Work progresses at this property and most encouraging showing is now in evidence. Superintendent Fisher reports the most hattering in dications.

Geronimo Indictment Dismissed.

A formal order was made last week at Tucson by Judge Campbell, dismiss ing the indictment returned twenty. two years ago by the grand jury against Geronimo, the murderous Apache chief, who died several months ago at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, where he was kept government prisoner.
 The indictment charged Geronimo with the murder of Jesus Robles, a ranchman who lived south of Tucson.
 A batch of fourteen indictments against Fred w. Smith, who was a receiver of public moneys in Tucson, were also dismissed. The indictments alleged embezzlement and were re- turned in 1889. Lionel Jacobs was foreman of the grand jury at the time. Smith disadpeared before he could be arrested and was supposed to have gone to British Columbia.
 Governor R. E. Sloan, was the presiding judge of this district at that time.

Properties of cOIs-Ryan to Be Merged?

Ben B. Thayer, assistant to the president of the Amalgmated Copper Co.,, while in Butte making his semi annual examination of the mines of that company recently, said that with the exception of the continued fire trouble in the "Hill mines" he is find- ing the mines in exceptionally good condition, but like Thomas F. Cole, who just completed a close exa nina tion of the North Butte and Butte Coalition mines, he will probably not gratify the public and the stockhold- CTS with any information about the properties, or any details of his ex- aminations.
 The announcement is made that the annual meeting of the stockholders of the Butte Coalition Co. will be held June 1, and that the books will be closed from May II to June ?. A rumor is afoat that there is a plan on foot to amalga mate all of the so. called Cole-Ryan companies, the uneasiness being occasioned by the belief that Butte Coalition could not hope to benefit by an amalga nation with the S60,OOO,OOO capitalized Greene-Cananea, the s6, ,5OO, ,OOO Giroux Consolidated, and the North Butte. There has been talk about an orga ni- zltion of stockholders committee to attend the annual meeting and in sist on presentation on the board of directors and closer relationship between the directors and the stock holders, but whether the movement will culminate in anything remains to be seen.
