NO BOND REoPIRED
 FROM SELIGMAN WOMAN
From Sundays Daily)

Additional developments attended the Rogers-Wiles case yesterday when the man and woman, accused of vio- lating the Edmunds act, were taken before United States Commissioner Moore for their preliminary examina- tion.
 They were bound over to appear before the next United States grand jury. Mrs. Wiles was released on her own reeognizanee, while Rogers bond was fixed at $200, which was prompt ly given, John Kinney and Dr. W. E. Day assuming that responsibility. So strong is sentiment in favor of the accused that almost any sum the court might have asked would have been given.
 Aside from this judicial action, it is said that as long ago as two years Wiles and his wife became estranged and separated. He went to San Der nardino, Cal, and at that time filed suit for divorce. At the hearing yesterday the allegation was made that he made Overtures to Rogers and Mrs. Wiles for money to hush up their illicit relationship
 Those in close relationship with Rogers and Mrs. Wiles are pronounced and emphatic in their determinations to bring material and startling evil denee out in the coming trial.
 The United States grand jury will convene in Prescott next month, when this ease will be considered.

CODE COMMISSION
 TO TAKE UP MINING
(From Sundays Daily !

Chas. J. Kimbell, a member of the mining code commission of Arizona, who arrived in the city yesterday from Crown King, left last night for Phoenix, where on November II and 12 there will be a general and open meeting of this body. The place se- leeted is Judge Armstrong's office in that city.
 MT. Kimbell says the coming meet ing will be open to all who are inter ested and any who have suggestions to offer in the drafting of a code for this body are welcome to appear. The coming discussion of the mining af- fairs of this territory is an important one in the preliminary movement to- ward mining operations from a legal standpoint. Later there will be an other general discussion when the sO- lution of the various questions affect ing the appointing of an inspector and other vital problems will be drafted and sent to the executive after which the code will be submitted to the leg islature for approval. It is expected that all members of this commission will be present. the coming meeting being the forerunner of vital and i'm portant moves affecting the future welfare of the industry.
 
 As constituted at the present time the commission is composed of the following: Will L. Clark, Jerome, president; Judge Armstrong, Phoenix, secretary; Chas. J. Kimbell, Crown King; W. F. Staunton, Tombstone; Peter Nipple, Globe.

MACHINE PLATOON ASSIGNED
 TO FORT wHIPPLE
(From sundav,s DailY.l ]

General E. D. Thomas, accompanied by his aide, Captain Guijot, left yes terday for Denver, the headquarters of the department. Before leaving General Thomas stated that the Eigh- teenth regiment of infantry was due to reach San Francisco on November 13 and immediately thereafter the three battalions of the regiment would take their respective stations.
 The first battalion, composed of Companies A, B, c and D, with the machine gun platoon of 25 men, will come to Whipple, arriving by No vember 15. This battalion will be under the command of Major Kirby.
 The assignment of the machine gun platoon will be an interesting event in the military life of this station. These men are skilled in their opera tions and the branch they are attached to is one of the most effective in the army. The rapidity of their move ments brings them into action in re- markably quick time. Three machine guns are attached to this body and the weapons are darried in specially provided saddles that are placed on mules.
 Arrangements to receive the new troops are being made at Whipple and it is probable that a special train will be necessary to bring them down from Ash Fork The present company at the fort is also preparing to return to Fort Douglas, Utah.
 While en route to Denver, General Thomas will visit and inspect Fort Apache and Fort Wingate. He anti cipates another trip to this section in few months when military mat ters are to be considered. He is i'm pressed with the country and his gen ial fellowship makes him at all times a welcome visitor in civilian circles. General Thomas was stationed in Prescott as long ago as 1875 and was on the staff of General Crook in a day when the Apache warfare was raging. Many civilians were at the depot to bid him and his aide fare well.

PIONEER BECOMES
 COMPLETE CITIZEN
GFrom Sundays Daily

tFr0m sundays t)aily'
 William Schroeder, one of the old est pioneers still residing in thi' county, was yesterday admitted tc citizenship.
 His delay in securing this right ii due to a peculiar circumstance and one for which he is not personally re sponsible. He arrived in Prescott il 1869 and was under the impression in that for away day that he was g full fledged American citizen and was entitled to all the rights owing to the fact of his fathers naturaliza, tion.
 He was born in Germany 64 years ago, and when his parents reached New York he was less than eight years of age. Later his father was admitted to citizenship and now, af. ter all these years, a technical error creeps into the record of the naturali- ration papers authorized, although it is known that MT. Schroeder, ST., was actually admitted to citizenship shortly after his arrival in the eoun- try.
 Under this belief, MT. Schroeder has voted regularly at every election held in Yavapai county for nearly 40 years, has been drawn on juries and to cap the climax, has secured pat ent rights to land, to which the gov ernment has not objected. To clear up all the mystery of the past and to get his foothold permanently i'm bedded in the ground in solid eiti- zenship, was his determination recent ly, and hence his admission to citizen ship before the United States court yesterday.
 MT. Schoeder says that the first labor he performed in 1869 was in driving mule teams for Sam Miller between Prescott and Hardyville on the Colorado river. After a few years in that work he went to Beaver Creek and for over 35 years has re- sided in that little valley continuous ly. He has an improved piece of ground and will leave for his old home tomorrow. He was the recipient of many congratulations from friends over his admission to citizenship and says he is glad that he will have smooth sailing hereafter.

RAILROADS HELPING
 THE MINING INDUSTRY

Realizing the value of the mining interests of the southwest of a per manent mineral exhibit, practically all of the railroads owning or operat- ing lines in Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, California, and Old Mexico, have agreed to cooperate with the Los Angeles Chamber of Mines, the logical sponsor of such an exhibit, in an edeavor to assemble in Los An geles a mining and oil exhibit, which will be second to none in the United States.
 The Chamber of Mines has already received notification from a number of the railroads that the Pacific freight bureau has been instructed to include in the next tariff a pro- vision granting "free rate" on all ore and all specimens consigned to the chamber from points on their lines and intended for exhibition pur- poses. This free rate is now effee- tive on the others within the next few days. The following railroad companies have granted the conees- sion mentioned: Southern Pacific and all connections, including the South ern Pacific lines of Mexico; the Santa Fe and connections, including the Tonopah & Tidewater and the Bullfrog 6 Goldfield; the Tonopah 6 Goldfield; Fl Paso 6 Southwestern and the National Railways of Mex ieo; also the Salt Lake Route.
 This concession on the part of the railway companies offers an unpar alleled opportunity for the various commercial organizations of Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico and California, to see that their mineral bearing dis tricts are properly represented by thoroughly classified and eomprehen- sive exhibit of minerals, ores and non-metallie geologic products of com IL lS uCculCbS IO state that these exhibits stimulate interest in mining matters and serve to demonstrate the value of the min ing industry to the country at large.
 When this exhibit has grown to proper proportions it is possible that portions of it may be sent from time to time to the large cities of the east for temporary display purposes, thus demonstrating to our eastern fellow-citizens that the west is not all sage brush and desert.
 The Chamber of Mines has already been advised of the shipment of sew eral boxes of specimens from Gold field, representing almost all of the mineral districts of Nevada. These specimens were carefully selected by John H. Tate, official elassifier of the Nevada mineral exhibit, which was displayed at the now famous Mineral Palace in Goldfield during the last session of the American Mining con- gress. The chamber was able to Ob- tain these specimens through the courtesy of the Mining congress com missioners.

MUCH ACTIVITY IS SEEN
 IN JEROME DISTRICT
(Jerome Copper Belt.)

ONRROA OCAN-l
 The new diamond drill hole on the
 Arkansas and Arizona which was started about ten days ago has neared the 1OO-foot mark and work is pro- gressing very satisfactorily, although the ground is very broken; much more so than in the first hole. This new drill hole is located 200 feet east of the first and if the work pro- gresses as rapidly as at present, the level of the previous values in the old drill hole will soon be reached. This is very interesting part of the present drilling as it will demonstrate the breadth of the ledge in which good values of gold were encountered through the workings of the old drill hole. The management here is watch ing the results with much interest.
 A Copper Belt representative wis ited the Hull and Cleopatra property yesterday and, in company with Gen eral Manager Hull, went into the mine and back to the 1,5OO-foot sta tion in the tunnel where several min CTS are at work on a fine looking body of ore winch is showing up bet ter every day with every indication of large body of copper ore ahead. The assays on the body now exposed will run about five per cent copper. At the 1,6O0-foot station the ore body has wi0ened and the formation is sOftening and there is considerable copper stain running in veins through the slate formation which is being encountered. The indications at both of these stations are identical with those encountered in the stope where so much fine ore is being knocked down on the Cleopatra. Coming back toward the entrance of the tunnel and in a distance of 900 feet on the Cleopatra property, a erosseut has been run to a distance of 100 feet and drill is now working on a fine looking ledge which is improving each day, and from all indications another large body of ore lies in this drift. O. B. Stanton, who has been here for the past two weeks watching each days development, left for his home in Philadelphia, via Denver, on Satur- day. He was more than pleased with all he learned while here both as to the property and the management. He will visit our promising burg again in the near future.
 Word was received here this week from the president of the Durango Gold Mining company, which brings the good news that the arrastra was started on a trial run on the 7th of October. The arrastra has four weights and revolves eight times a minute. This will crush con siderable tonnage of ore in a day. The lodges are improving as depth is acquired and a shipment of bullion IS expected here very shortly. The company is more than pleased with the showings, and it is expected with the present prospects to open up one of the greatest gold producers as well as a dividend payer that the world has produced, and many of the in- terested parties are Jeromites.
 The winze at the Meseal Mining eompany's property has now reached a depth of e6 feet and is passing through a formation well mineralized with iron and giving assays of cop per and gold. Two shifts are working and an average of a foot a day for each shift has been made. Foreman Chas. Miller is in charge of the work.

RED DYKE GOLD.

The tunnel now being run on the Red Dyke property is now in a dis. tance of IS feet and an assay of samples taken from six holes in the face of the tunnel went as high as $16. There is a shaft on the prop erty which is down a depth of 65 feet and the tunnel which is being run will be into the formation a dis tanee of 250 feet when the shaft is encountered. The bottom of the shaft is in good looking ore and the tun- nel is run with a view of striking this vein and better vahes.

 The new electric machinery at the United Verde Extension has been in stalled and the power furnished by the Arizona Power company is now on.

Fisher is now at the property and reports that within the next few days everything will be thoroughly estab- lished and understood and the work, with the new machinery, win be working perfectly. TbTee shifts are working.
