CONSUMERS BUY

GOOD MINING PROPERTIES
 IN DEMAND
Owners Too Often Ask Prices Not Warranted By Develop mentS Made or Gre in Sight Sensible Suggestions

Mr. F. Ernesu Wilson. mining ex- pert of New York. when interyiwed in Tucson one day last week, said in substance: The situation in New York is looking much better for min ing than it has for quite a number of years. There is more money seeking investments in properties that show reasonable values as against the price asked for. There is a great demand for properties in the Southwest and in Mexico; more than usual for de vcioped mines. There is a great lack in reports that are being submitted
 of facts as to development and values in sight, aud a tendency of those owning properties or prospects to ask price far in advance of anything in sight, without giving the investor sufficient time to prove the value of the properties, in many cases demanding more cash as an advance payment than the property jusufies.
 Mining men in the southwest and in Mexico should be more careful in the character of their development, and more conservative and concise in their reports. By so doing it will encourage the investigation of their properties much sooner and to their advantage.
 ''The financial crisis just passed has led to sn inclination Of capital to reach out more for mining properties in preference to mercantile invest. ments. From Europe there Is a great demand for large and well developed properties which show the value ask cd in ores in sight
 Personally on this trip I am ex- pecting to look at some properties in which I am more or less interested. and also for others, in all probability spending three or four weeks in Mex leo before returning to New York
 The Yaqu situation in Sonora now being considered settled, there are a great many that were inter ested in Mexico formerly that express an inclination to invest in Sonora, as they consider that the richest and least explored portion Gs Mexico as to its mineral wealth and on account of the raBid building of the railroads 1t will be an impossibility for the Taqu Indians to cause more trouble of any importance.
 .I understand that the Mexican Ex, plOTafiOn Mining company and also the Douglas Copper company are pushing developments the results of which are proving very hattering
 There has been some very rich strikes made in the Seven TrOuEhs and Gold Circles districts in Neva da in the last month. and some es. innate that they will equal in richness Goidfield in it's most palmy days,
 Tt will probably take the whole of the present year for the financial situation to overcome the effects of the panic.

YUMA, Feb. 23.--Less than a con trolling intefest in the famous Anna viscca prospect has been sold -;r S3S6.O00.

 The King of Arizona people. ai,el years Of conservatism. awoke to the fact that moneyed people were buying So with a rush that swept eyerythias b lore them they outbid the Star peo- pie. their nearest competitors, and covered the great AmaFisea leau.
 When old companies like the King buy. it is time for everybody to buy. Prices on all kinds of property ha.v risen 100 per cen1. Men are getriuE the fever. Dig they cry, and doN . they go.
 A buncn Of leasers are in the camp but owing 10 the intense excitement caused by the sales of the past few days. the property holders are holding back their claims.
 Several of Neyada's best mnius men arrived on the last stage. aau,i ooking over the formation anC the slowing each and every one ex- pressed himself as believing that from a geological standpoint. this districl outdlstances Goldfeld and Ton0pah ten to one.
 One Cf these experts, Beckner, by name. after making criticai examina- ton of the Star. King and Amayisca properties, together with numerous prospects, decided that the formation Is identical with that of Goldfield.
 Where this district has such an ad- vantage over GOldfield, is in the crop ping up Of ledges. In Golduelu. Ue- side the main lead or mother lode, there was nothing They sunx on nothing and struck it rich. Here there arc dozens of fine leads. An pr this ground win assay from the sum, nit 10 the wash of the mountains.
 There is not a shaft n the district fifty feet deep that has not exposed rich pay streak. If the amount Of work that has been done in Goldficld will be done here. fifty million dol lars in gold could be expressed )an- nuajly for the next decade
 Men are realizing this fact. and it .s safe to say that within the next sixty days all of the original owners who pish, will have sold.

SHIP WRECKED OFF NEW YORK
Schooner Swallow, from st. Johns,
N. F., Goes Down I'm Storm
Crew of SIX Lost.

NEW YORK, Jan. 17.--In the biting. driv-
ing snowstorm of early Sunday morning,
off the Long Island shore, another vessel.
the schooner Swallow OF st. Johns, N. F.,
and it's crew paid the toll SO often de-
manded of those who go down to the sea
in ships. The story of the wreck, or so
much as is known of 1t, was told by the
sea itself. for today 1t strewed the beach
east OF Fire island for several miles with
bits OF wreckage from the ship and cargo.
On some of this flotsam appeared the
name Swallow. St. Johns, N. F." and
this told the beachmen the name of the
vessel that had pounded Itself to pieces
in the bowling gale. OF the crew, probably
five or six men, judging from the schoon-
er's size there was no trace. But looking
driving snow with its attending bitter cold
the beachmen knew their fate. No human
power could have aided them.
At 2 o'clock this morning a beachman
from the Blue Pc Mt station saw some black
objects bobbing bout in the tumbling surf
close to shore. Ie hauled some OF them in
and. finding 1t was wreckage. hurried back
to his station to report and to secure aid
Other beachmen were soon on the scene
hauling in the flotsam. There were tim
bers, new lumber. frozen herring and fish
ing tackle. and finally they came to
signboard which told the vessels name.
The lifesavers stood by and patrolled the
beach all day in the hope that they might
find some trace of the crew, but night
fall came and their quest had been vain.
