 Official announcement was made to- day that the Calumet S- Hecll com pany hes taken over the interest which Bigeiow and his associates had iu mining properties at the lake and tJat 5he Calumet and Hecla will issue between five and ten million notes to pay Tor them.

LOGAN 6 sRYAn's LETTER

Special Wire to l.. ]. Overlock) NEW YORK. Feb. 26.-The news from Washington was the chief indi-
 eating course of security values today.
 Reports were more favorable, particu- larly in regard to the Forecast as to
 the probable extent Of tRriff revision
 on various commodities and the ruling in favor of Standard Oil company in the S29. 9.0O0.000 case also exerted l. favorable influence on traders. The opening was irregular, partly in the industrial department. but the rails showed tendency to act indepsndent-
 F and good support and aggressive
 buying was noted in various special 1 ties. L. & N. and Big Four were sFarply higher. and the Hartman is-
 sues were also in good demand. Fur. ther heavy selling took place in Amaigamated aud Shelters, but tn
 the afternoon short covering caused these issues to rally and close firm with the balauce of the list. The nea- approach of the inauguration is likely to cause some new enthusiasm | in the way of greeting 10 the new administration. but tariff discussion ! especially when congress Convenes, is | bound to eNert restraining power on market fluctuations.

ProSpeCtors Who Have Gone

 Rich In Ore

kINGMAN. Feb. 26.-Thomas Ho- gan came in from his Thumb Butte. group of mines last Saturday evening and brought with aim some specimens of a new strike made a few days ba- rore on tae Atlantic claim. lie and partners have been running an addI dOnal drift on the vein and have open cd up three feet of ore that runs high m gold. This strike was made in a new plaee and gives great value to the property. Several other openings snow ore values. but none so good as this. With Mir Hogan is interested Supervisor J. C Potts and L. Kimber- ly. The owners have dore 6 large amount of R1'k on the mines and be EcYc they have one of the bet groups in tho nici Pass section. They are situ2ed ah0aj six milss from tae Col orado River and Il one Of the most accessible ;lris oF thc district Work Nih he cJaG-.1uj n the property for many montls and the ore bodies opened up sufficiently 10 justify the erection of a milling plant.

Mir. Jackson has big vein of lead ore farther to the souti. n the same part Of the range. The ore bodies along the foothills of the east side Of the Wallapai mountains are large and car Try good values in gold, silver and lead. but their distance from the rail Toad at the present time leaves little for the miner after tire expense of marketing is deducted. With the fur ther development of the mines it Is expected that cheaper transportation T-ill come and the mines put on a pay basis.
 The Golden Gem mill is said to be making Q record for itseg these days. The ore now being sent to mll Is of better grade than any heretofore talk en from the property and the saving is very close.
 The Western Railway of Arizona appears to be doing good business these days and it is probable that a better service will have t0 be put on. The company now runs three trains weekly to Chloride. returning the same day With the opening of sey. eral new mines and g greater produc- ton of the old properties it is prob able that trackage will be extended to CeTbat and Todd Basin. The mines Of th2t section deserve better treat ment from the railroad than they have got and it is probable that tht railroad people will look at t in that way.

LOST PECLEC MINE REAL
 ROMANCE OF GOLDEN WEST

was classed as one of those allnring and mythical romances created by the vivid imaginations of the early search CTS for the auriferOus treasures hid- den in the inhosp.table waste in the southeastern part of the state. But the story of Pegleg's alleged discovery is now revived by the return of 6 miner from that section Of the San
 Jacinto mountains. in San Diego coun- ty, bearing with him gold nuggets. Jhe
 largest of which weighs nearly four ounces, and specimens Ch gold bearing quartz assaysng slO.000 ton, which
 he claims 10 have obtained from the Iong-lost "Peg'eg" mine This re-dis- eoyery, if if be one. constitutes part Of an aboriginal romance of some years ago. when an old Ind an is al- legged to have revealed to the miner the location of the rich deposit on a iledge that the secret should be kept untii after his death. The latter oc- cured recently. and the miner was prompted to relocate ais claim by the recen. discovery bY two other miners of an equally rich ledge on Steamboat mountain which ne at first suspected was the "Pegleg vein, but which turned oht 10 be eighty miles west of the latter. Mhetaer or not either of these ricn fln1r are in, reality the "Pegieg" yein. they go far to provs the great mineral wealth of the Colo rado desert region. which has long been suspectel by mining men famil- jar with its geological formation to be the richest natural treasure store house in the state. and which. when it's conquest shall nave been com nletsa. will probably prove to ke 30.

The story ot the discovery and loss of the "Pegleg' mine in the desert region of the southern part of the state has been often narrated with many variations. says the Oaklanc Tribune. It Is one of the earliest min ing rcmances Of southern California following the discovery of gold at Celona by Marshall. In the original form the story went that Peg,eg. a desert prospector, so-called because ne was maimed. crawling into Bakers. field on one oE the early days in a partially demented condition, pro duced by the privatious he had sui. fered. bearing with him nuggets and gold bearing quartz specimens whica. hc represented. he had taken from Q ledge of incomparahle richness, he had discovered in h.s wanderings in the desert regiop. but which ne was reyer after able to relocate. His story gas or a par with that other desert myth known a the "GunsightH mine, wherein q gs-osi ector had used piece of native gold he had broken from the Uutcroppines Of a ledge wnich he came aeTpss in his roamings in the desert to repair the barrel of h.s rifle. ana fae bearings CT which sa was not afierwawis able to reloc=te. When rho Yellow Aster mine at Randsburs was discovered. about twelyt or tnir- teen years ago. desert prospectors set tied down to the belief that the Gun sight" mine had been found.

H. E. King of the Southwestern Realty company returned from Bouse yesterday with J. r.
