BIG JEWElRY HAUL
 BY TUCSON THIEVES

TUCSON, Jan. 22.-Thieves entered the home of Mrs. T. s. Jern-gan. at 245 East Third street, ana carried away a jewelry case containing much valuable tewelry anc important pa- pers. The police found the case con tainiDg the papers. t.EI from which the iewelry had been removed. lying in the basement of a new Dull ling at Grosetta alley, a feE blocks distant
 While it is not known how the thieves entered nor what ot.er val uables they secured, it is believed that they used a skeleton key with which they opened the front door and then made their way from room to room until they found the Jewery case, which Is the only thing that has been missed so far.
 The pieces of jewelry. consisting of a valuable watch, brooches ana pins of different kinds, are valued at sever al hundred dollars. The police have several lists which they have distrin- uted among the jewellers. pawns oops and secondhand stores of the city, and should the thieves stili be in town and attempt 10 dispose of thefr loot, they win surely be caught. while DO lice officers in other cities have also been notified to look out TOT people attempting to sell jewelry or which full description has been furnished them

 One feature of the method is the ease of renewal If from any acuse or accident any portion of the surface Is injured. all that is necessary. in the way of repairs. Is to apply a new coat ing of the compound, either to i'll the break or to cover the entire surface if necessary. at but slight expense. and the apparatus is as good as ever.

HARTMAN LINES BOOMING MEXICO
American Editor of the JaIaSco Times Tells of the Coun-
 ty'S Progress.

TUCSON, Jan. 22.-Rufus P. March. who conducts the Jalisco Times at Guadalajara. Mexico. was in the city on his way home. accompanied by his wife, after sojourning in Oregon and other states in the northwest for the past three months. This Is Mir March's first visit to the states in the past nine years. He has been a resident and has great faith in the develop ment of Mexico.
 In speaking of the special improve ments that are now going on In Mex ico. Mir March said that the new branch road of 125 miles. from Quad alajara to Tequila. win be opened the 2Sth of this month, and the line from Mazanillo to Guadalaiara, IFS miles, has been opened. This will be the first transcontinental railroad in Mex leo and will mean much. as it opens up rich mining and agricultural coun- try.
 It is expected that within two or three years the Hartman road through to Guadalajara from the west coast of Mexico will be completed, and then Mexico will be booming fast.
 Mining operations throughout Mexi- co suffered but little during the re cent slump, and even the small min CTS, who were affected most. are rap idly resuming operations and the min ing business in general Is profitable to a marked degree
 MT. March stated that while his paper. the Jalisco Times. is being con ducted as a weekly. 1t is the purpose of those interested to organize daily paper in that city, which will be known as the Jalisco Journal. There are but few daily papers in Mexico at the present time and Guadalajara, the home of several thousand Americans and claiming a total population or l25. 900. will undoubtedly prove a good field for the operation of 8 daily paper, to be printed half in English and half in Spanish.
 In speaking of Tucson. Mir. March said that he had been agreea0Iy sur, urised upon his arrival here. He had expected to find small railroad | junction point, and instead found q town of good size, pretty buildings and almost incomparable climate. Mrs March said that when they arose yes terday morning they were partlculariy impressed by the climate. as they -ao been visiting in Portland and other snow-covered cities for some time past. and 1t was very pleasant to bt back in the land of sunshine. During the afternoon they took : Ttrip around the city and were veri well pleased by the beautiful home'

 At the present time the Twin Buttes is shipping eight car loads of ore each week to the smelters al Fl Paso. There are about sixty men at work in the mines.

 A party of stockholders left for an inspection of the properties of the company at Twin Buttes. The trip was made on a special train.

guet and by dredging operations In Parcale.
 The depression in the base metal industries did not affect the gold pro duction to any considerable degree, for the total base metal ores contrib ute only to 10 per cent Of the nor nal output of gold for the country The gold from copper ores suffered little reduction, but the small amounts contributed from lead and zinc ores wore much reduced.
 Silver.
 The silver mining industry presents 8 far less satisfactory condition than that Of gold. owing 10 rae TOW prices for silver. lead. copper and zinc. Dur ing the year the large smeiters of Utah and Colorado were partly closed and partly operated on a reG1ced ca 7acity. Important mines in Leadville Aspen Creek and Park City, Colo, which were operating on low grades that yielded well In 1906 anc 1907, and were therefore compelled to re- duce their output or to crose. Owing to the temporary lack of demand from India the silver market declined al most continuously from a3ouJ 56 cents per ounce in the early part of the year to about 4S cents in December, the average closed with New York prices at 50 cents. However. the pur- chases by India during pas5 years have been large and have steadily in creased, and there is no reason to ex pect a sudden falling oil in this mar ket. The extraordinary heavy produc- tion of the Cobalt district in Canada which for 1908 may approximate IT, 100000 ounces, undoubtedly contrib uted to the depression in the price of silver. A great reduction fin the out put of silver in the United States was clearly foreshadowed in the figures of the geological survey for the mine production in 1907, which amounted to only 52,500. .104 fine ounces. where as the refineries and the hints report 56,514.700 fine ounces. The shortage in the mint output for the last months Of 1907 was naturally reflected In the refinery returns for 1908, ana was ac centuated by still further reductior in the production of the mines. The director of the mint estimates the pro duction of silver in 1908 from domestic sources at 51.7sS.053 fine ounces

The following Is q preliminary state ment by the geological survey relating 10 the precious metals in the United states:
 Gold.
 According to a press bulletin pre- pared by WaAtenar Isindgren, Of the United States geological survey. the gold mining indusiy of the United States hni successful and prosper ,pus year in 1908. in spite oy many ad- verse conditions Of i1ade and Finance. Fundamentally, this prosperity Is due 70 the fixed price and apparently linn itIess demand for the product Inc immediate csuses operating to in .-rcaoc the output were in part the removal of certain abnormal features ending to depress the production in lsO7. such as the partial closing of the Homestake mine in the Black Hills of south Dakota and the labor difficulties in the Mother Lode counties or Call fornia. To some degree the Tncreaseo production. of gold is also indirectly due to the closing e many mines in the base metal camps A tendency to- ward increased production by smah operators was noted as early as the last months of 1907 and continued through 1908. Large numbers or miners left the districts in which the output of lead, copper and zinc was curtaiIed and began placer work or took up leases in gol6 mining camps.
 The director of the mint estimates tho production of goIc TOT 1908 from domestic sources at S96.3l3. .2o6, against s9o. 5.700 in 1907. South Da- kota, Alaska. California and Colorado show large estimated increases, rang ing from S2,000.90 to S3,6O0, ,00O. Inc estimate for Utah indicates a decrease of about s1.2Go.000: for Nevaca a dc crease of $3,30o. 900. The production of Montana, Arizona. fdaho, Oregon and other silver producing states has re- mained approximately stationary. The production from the Philippine Isl ands shows a gratifying increase. the estimate of the mint being $306, ,70S against $76.700 in 1907. As part of the Philippine gold does not reach the United States the showing is prob ably even better than these figures would indicate. Most of the gold was recovered by quartz mining in Ben

 In that the materials of the com pound. the nature Of which has no, been disclosed to the public. have a very high affinity for the mercury, it is quite difficult. if not impossible. to break them loose from their seating. as they are supported on all sides, thus reducing loss to a minimum.
 The surface of the compound, wlen ready for operation, has the texture and feel" of Q moderately rough ce ment surface, and is in a most admir- able condition for deterring the rapid progress of pulp over it. This rough. ness tends to roll the particles and keeps them constantly climbing over obstacles.

NEW PROCESS FOR RECOVERY

New Invention May Solve Dif-
 ficuit Problem of Recovering
 Values of Flake or Flour Go!d-inyenter Explains 1t.

There is perhaps no line of metal IurgicaI work which has called out moro effort in the improvement of methods than that of recovering flour or flake gold
 h most cases il has been along the line of amaigarnatOrs, rifles or the me -hapical subenrsian of the containing sand in baths of mercury.
 The old copper plate has always held It's place. and. although many devices have been brought out which pro-nis- d | higher recovery, none has been able to supplant 1t in the general operation of gold milling.
 One of the great objections 10 tlTss ordinary copper plate has been the loss of quicksilver resulting from securing and fouling, for. while the mercury has c very decided affinity for copper. the attachment, which has no side support. is so delicate that ig tskes but little to disturb and de taeh it-
 Tae great advantages of copper plates are the ease with which they arc kept in condition when once work ing normally. and also the fact that they are always open to close observa tion and attentons in order to keep them in condition
