will develop into a large produced and dividend payer. Barring unforeseen de- lays and providing there is an improve ment in the metal market, we expect to resume ore shipments on an advanc
 ing scale this fall. We shall be able to mine the ore from the Great Eastern, Old Dominion and the Limestone veins, through the. new McGaw shaft, which has now reached a depth of about 475 feet, and every effort is being made to insure a substantial production when shipments are again resumed. The ore in the Great Eastern mine shows a marked improvement with depth, but the fact that at depth of practically 700 feet we still have oxidzed ores of fers the very best kind of an argument for more extensive zone of secondary enrichment than we had anticipated, and we expect to mine a high grade ore to a depth of at least 1900 feet before encountering prosary sulphides. The profit from this class of ore will be large and the operativev costs low. v

GENERAL DEVELOPMENT co.

The General Development company is becoming more and more aggressive in the mining field. particularly in the various copper camps, and to lesser degree in the silver mines of Cobalt The company is a close corporation formed under Delaware laws, of which Adolph Lewisohn is president, and J. Il. Susmann treasurer Among the few stockholders are representatives of some of the largest banking institutions in the country,
 Originally formed with $9,000,00 capital, of which but 40 per cent was paid in. tine capital was later increased to s2,50O.000, and more recently. through the authorization of an addi- tional 1000 shares again increased to $2 ,600, 900.
 In June it was determined to make the stock fully paid and non. assessa ble and for this purpose an extra divi- dend of 60 per cent was declared and applied for this purpose.
 The new shares will be optioned to J. Parke Charming until February l, 1911, at par, when if this is not ex- ercised, the stock may be disposed of as directors see fit and at whatever price they determine. The option was given to Mir. Charming at the forma- ton of the General Development com pany by President Lewisohn personal. ly, as partial inducement for the for mer to become consulting engineer of the latter corporation, but the directors believed that this burden should not be borne by Mir Lewisohn on his per sonal account
 A late acquisition on the part of the General Development company has been the Keystone Copper company, To. l cated near the Miami, an option on which has been held for some time by Mir. Susmann of the General Develop ment company. This option expires next May and provides that new company with s3,000,000 capital be formed to take over the property.
 Below is partial list of properties in which the General Development company is known to be interested;

CHICAGO. August 4.--Wheat sold below the dollar mark today for the first time m several months, when De ceIhber dropped to go Is on. the pros poets of big crop in the northwest. The selling at first came mainly from the bears, who were backing their judgment of bumper crop. At the decline, more wheat came out on ex- hausted margins, or from disgusted longs. Prospects for the crop were re. corded in messages. Probably 1000,000 bushels were sold abroad and the cash demand from the seaboard was said to be brisk.
 The corn market went the same as wheat, with net losses greater.

The general belief of mining men, both in this part of the country and elsewhere, is that copper stocks will show greatly increased strength in the early fall. While local mines are not making any marked display of re sources at the present time owing to the summer season, the consequent ab- sence from the field of many of the managers and heavier investors, and the general dullness of business condi tions all over the country, yet the de- velopment work that is being done gives ample assurance that these re sources are not lacking and that wirh the rise in copper that is expected in n month or so, the companies of Globe district will experience a big impetus in the work of development and of pro duction.
 Numerous exchanges of property / have either been effected or are now pending, and at the end of the sum mer. it is practically certain that sev- eral new companies will come forward as important factors in the mining business of Globe district and of all Arizona as well. Everything points, then, to winter of greater prosperity than has been witnessed locally for many years.
 An excellent expression in brief of the prevailing sentiment in mining cir cles is herewith given by the head of one of the leading copper selling agencies of the country, who says:
 1.-The growth of the consumption of copper in this country is not generally appreciated. question if actual meltings were ever greater in this country than at the present time, and l believe that this growth of domestic consumption will he reflected in about another month to the extent of ma. terial betterment of prices of copper.
 "Stocks in this country should show another decrease this month, and the foreign stocks should show another in crease, though not so large as last month. By September l, however, there should be an excessive worlds con sumption over production, which should he reflected satisfactorily. l anticipate no reduction in prices, therefore, below the present Recent level, and l would not be surprised to see a gradual hard ening in prices and considerable i'm provement this fall.'

while recently returning from Eu

STRANGE PAINTINGS IN CAVE
Mo One Yet Has Been Able to De-
cipher Their Meanins-Must Be
Centuries Old.

The old Indian cave recently dis
covered about two miles from GINS
Wash, has been visited by many per-
sons during the last few weeks. mere
are a large number of Indian paint
ings on the interior walls of the cave,
but so far no one seeing them mas
been able to decipher any meaning.
The cave has sand floor. which
seems very strange, as 1t is one OF
the highest cliffs, which Is practically
all rock in the surroundings. Inc
sand must have been carried there,
where 1t forms level floor.
Some of the visitors have dug into
this floor, hoping to find some hidden
treasures, but so far nothing has been
reported, although holes more than
three feet deep have been dug into
the sand
The cave Is large enough to make
shelter for $50 to 500 persons stand
ing, and no doubt was valuable as
set to the Indian tribe that made it.
Part of the cave appears to be OF a
natural cavity made by the disinte
grated lava rock, while . good portion
of it must have been worked out in q
crude way by human hands 1000 OF
more years ago.
There is still another wonder that
, produces thought for study as to lis
probable use, and that is window
carved through the cliff rocks about {
| rods from the cave. This window is
about a foot wide by three feet IL

one of the results to the litigant may

Owing to reversals and new trials
ordered by APPELLATE courts, 1t had to

heartened with his interminable law
suit that he abandoned it, refused &c

them about it or to appear when the
case was being tried. The lawyers
had themselves spent over $4,000 on
fighting the case, and had worked on
it for nearly twenty years. Their eli
