PEARL AND CRIST0
 MINE FREE GOLD
Sacks of Ore Taken Out Will

About year ago II. ". Baylor and II. ]. BOwles. two cattle men of Uvalde. Texas, grubstaked W. Q. Mo Kinney to go to Sylyanite where he located the Pear and Monte Christo, two adjoining claims in the south east section of the district which has lately come into prominence by re- son of the discoveries on the Ridge wood and other properties. That Me Kinney attached but little importance 10 the value of his claims. is proved by the fact that he did his location work in a gravel bank. About a
 month ago the vein was opened up by well known mining man in this camp. the first orc uncovered show ing free gold in profusion and q large number Of specimens carrying as much as from five to ten per cent gold were taken out. Efforts were made by diff ferent parties to purchase the proper " but other residents of Uvalde hay ing become interested no decision to accept even an offer of sJ0,OOo could be reached and last week the owners decided 10 develop the mine them selves. Since commencing operations last week the ore shoot has been strip ned fer a length Of ten feet ana q shaft sunk or it to about the same
 depth. Tle vein proper is about thir- ty inches wide of grauulated quartz sprinkled and imprg gnated with free gold. on the foot wall side are eigh- teen inches Of decomposed slate vein

Hayden, Stone & Co. in their latest wsaFly market letter say:
 The market continues lcaderless. and therefore. without definite tendency.
 Techinacily. the ease in money, the generally firm undertOGg, and the fact that such activity as there is. is in the upard side-ls encourag ging. but there Is absolutely Roahing in the outlook for the next few months Co warrant the market leaders in re suuing their role. and consequently. no reason to expect any change from tnis dun, EO-as-you-ploase market.
 The extraordinary money situation lis about the only feature orth dis. cussinG. As a result of government withdrawals. the surplus of the New York banks was reduced last week by Si7.000.0G0. This is rot to be re- gretted. except as 1t indicates very poor business managg gment on the part oi our national government. It is mol surprising that the governments rev canes should have fallen off: it's in- come Is as much subject to business conditions as that of any business concern. Nor is this decline alarm ing. because the governments re ceipts will recover just as surely as business recOvers. But 1t is surprising and alarming that our national gov ornmeut. the bigget business concern in the county. the one that touches all t4e people. should be absolutely the only one 70 make no effort what eyre tc reduce it's expenses In con iormity with Is income. Our rail roads and manufactures, our mills and mines. have cut down operating costs. and even sacrificed maintenance, until in spite Of a decreased business fheir ret earnings are. in many cases
 showing gain. But the government Is not only making no attempt to cui down expenses. but our legislators are sitting up nights devising new ways of meeting these expenses, and it fs even proposed to resort to taxes, i'm posed hitherto only in times of war.
 The case in the money market is, of course. largely due 10 the fact that this surplus money cannot be profit. lGbiy employed in business. AS soon

SWISSHELh MINES

Robert Axford and E. ]. Jack in Will Organize Company
 For Development.

Robert AKfOrd, of Hereford, passea through Bisbee yesterday morning returning home from a trip to D group Of copper mining claims in the Swisshelm district owned by himself. F. J. Jacllin. of Tomb stone and Mr. Buchanan. also of the county seat MT. Axford said that be had been to the mines with Mir. Jack li8 and as q result of the visit 1t had been decided to organize a company for the development of these prep er-ies which had already made an eE- celicnt showing iE copper. T-ccse mines are located not very fa- nor h from the Heffefr property on which development y,IE has been progress ing steadily ior nearly two years. lt is the opinion Of Wr AyfOrd that tho Swisshelm district will, with dc- yclopmcut. prove to be the equal of any of the copper districts in Cochise county. This like the Leadvfile. the Paradise and other districts in the county which have not yet reached the productive stage, has been known for the last thirty years and from time 10 time work has been done in 2. small way. but there has never been any extensive development work dozc by anyone. That the country Is mir eralizud is beyond question and when systematic and extensive development work is undertaken the result will be the sane there as # has been in those productive districts Of the ter ritCry

 MT Axford pointed 70 Caur.laud as

 The fact is that the price O? copper has little or nothing to do with it's sale. This may seem a remarkable statement. but it is none the less true. What the user of copper is concerned with is not it's immediate price. but whether he can sell lis goods at a figure to show him a profit on that price Just at present he finds It diff bcult to sell his goods at any price. and it would Do no inducement to him to purchase copper. if 1t Is marked down to 10 cents a pound. Such a step, however, might have the effect Of curtailing production. and this would certainly be worth while.
