THE MINING EXHIBIT
 IS BETTER THAN EVER
IT IS ONE OF THE FEATURES OF
 THE FAIR
The Excellent Showing Made By the
 Various Committees

The mineral building is one of the centers of attractions since the open ing of the fair. to mining men. invest ors and the curious public. A large number of visitors have visited the mining building this fair than ever be- fore. A great many new exhibits. both temporary and permanent. have been added to the building The building now is overcrowded with ex- hibits. Many cases representing the minerals of various mines could be se- cured from theryarious mining com panies if there was space to install them. The hope is that soon a new mining building will be built large enough 10 exhibit the mineral wealth of Arizona.
 Colonel Randolph. of Tucson, is superintendent of the mining depart ment. and J. C. Goodwin, of Tempe, is general manager. All minerals of commefcial importance are to be found in this building number of new minerals not before represented have been added to the exhibit. The best general exhibit of gold, silver and copper for the year 1909 comes from Mohave county; the best exhibit of copper ores comes from Cochise coun- ty. from what is known as the John son & Dragon camp. From the Cen turion mines at Dragoon a large and beautiful display of carbonate of cop per has been placed on exhibition. These ores were placed on exhibition by the Centurion Arizona Mining company and were found in an open cave-like ground, similar to the open ground found in the Warren district, where unlimited bodies of copper ore have been taken from during the last several years. and it is said that this company has large bodies of this ore. This ore assays something over thirty per cent copper.
 Another exhibit of ore comes from the mine owned by the Arizona United Mining company. This ore is a sul-

feet the ore is a high grade oxidized
 ore and is easily cyanided.
 Another exhibit of ore is from the
 Tom Reed mine This mine was pur-
 chased by John Hays Hammond and
 others some time ago. All the ore
 mills about s20 a ton. A ten stamp
 mill in a year and a half paid for all
 the development and for the mill and
 made a dividend in addition.
 Another exhibit comes from Carter
 This ore came from the 15e-foot level
 and assays from s25 to $40 per ton.
 The Ruth exhibit averages in value
 about s25 This mine is being exam
 ined now by John Hays Hammond
 The exhibits from the above mines come from the San Francisco district.
 The Expansion mine from the Union Pass district has an exhibit. The value runs about $10 per ton. The Dixie Queen. Virginia district. exhibit is valued at about SIP per ton. The Gold Bug mine. weaver district. This exhibit averages value of three foot of ore at little over S20 per ton. The Last Chance mine exhibits a two-foot vein Of ore which averages about s60 per ton. Holy Moses mine. \ McCon- nico district. The average value Of this exhibit is s25 per ton. Bi-MetaI mine. McConnico district, is said to be large hill of ore in which the deposit is several hundred feet wide. It runs about s4 per ton. This mine is now being examined by John Hays Ham mond. This mine is right on the main line of the Santa F'e and only three miles from Kingman.
 Among the exhibits is fine exhibit of zinc ore from the Golconda mine. This mine is in the Union Basin dis trict. about fifteen miles from King man. This mine is today shipping 1000 tons of 4s per cent zinc ore per month. This ore contains enough gold and silver to pay for mining and transportation. About twice this amount of ore is being placed on the dump which in time will be concen- trated- This mine is the second larg- est producer of zinc ore in the United States. Contrasting the 46 per cent zinc ore of this mine with the three to l five per cent zinc ores of Joplin dis 1 trict. and these ores of Joplin district l are worked at a profit. the proposed | plan of developing and milling will in l time make this mine the first pro ducer of zinc in the United States l The life of this mine is only a little | over a year and half. but it has paid 1 for itself. development.

 Sulphide ores.-A number of good | exhibits of sulphide ores. carrying l gold. silver, lead and copper values. from the Redemption mine, and the Rainbow and Samoa. Chloride district. the Enterprise. Wallafair district. | Treasure Hill and Keystone. Mineral i Park All these mines are ping oper- ated at the present time.
 Another exhibit from the Cedar dis trict. owned by Sperl Dudeck X Com pany. contains tungsten acid. This ore is hubernite. and is found in schist. Some of the concentrating ores that contain small veinlets of resnous looking mineral. has suspicion of be- ing pitch blend. An exhibit said to be meerschaum from the Weaver. near Chloride. owned by Wilson & Hall. is on exhibition.
 Yavapai county.-Yavapai county has the best aIl-round exhibition of |, gold, silver and copper of any other

Cerbat district. wire silver from the Keystone and Butler mines, Mineral Park dis trict. wire gold from Minnesota, Chloride district, and from the Treas ure Hill district. In this case is to be seen a wonderful display of turquoise from a mine owned by Thomas Me- Medley and James Uncapher from Min eral Park. This mine is said to be one of the large producers of tur- quoise in the United States. The larg- est producing turquoise mine at Min eral Park is the Aztec. owned by Tiff fany & Co, of New York All day long curious crowd gazes with much interest into this case In this case also are some beautiful specimens of opalized chalcedony owned by Ross H.

PATTEN'S PROFITS
ABOUT 100000
LARGEST PLAY IN WHEAT SINCE
LETTER CORNER.
LITTLE WHEAT IN COUNTRY
Kansas Short Crop Report Starts
New Sensation-Price May
Go to $1.4O.

Chicago, May 25.-A profit Of
close to 100000 Is already Sc
cured by James A. Patten and his
followers in the May wheat cam
paign, which has but four days more
to run, as next Saturday will be the
last business day in May.
Holdings of the bull leaders at
their maximum were 100000
bushels and their followers had over
100000 bushels.
1t is the largest play made in
wheat since the Letter deal, but has
been unlike Letters in sensational
features and from the fact that cash
wheat Is scarce. In the three weeks
this month there have been only
100000 bushels received in Chica-
go, of which $4,000 bushels came
by lake from Duluth. This Is the
lightest run for this season, when
the high prices are considered, and
shows to the minds of the Oldest
traders that there is little wheat
back in the country.
A new sensation was given the
trade in the estimates of the Kansas
wheat crop of 80,0O0,000 bushels.
1t was made by an official of the
Santa Fe road and created active
buying. 1t is the opinion of the
leaders that wheat may go to $1.40
by next Saturday.

The lumber schedule Of the tariff
bill is slated for material modifica-
ton before the bill passes the SEN
ate. The Pacific Coast senators con-
tend that the house duty on rough
lumber is too low and they are sup
porting the retention of the present
rate of 81 1000 feet. An effort is
being made to compromise on $1.5O
per 1000 feet for rough lumber and
a small differential on dressed lum-
Der. On the latter 50 per 1000 feet
has been suggested.
1t Is expected that after the vote
has been taken on the question OF
putting lumber on the free list no
further action will be taken until
the committee has again considered
the subject with a view to harmon
izing the differences between the
free lumber advocates and those who
are demanding protection.
1t is stated upon high authority
that a poll of the senate shows an
overwhelming sentiment against
placing lumber on the free list.
