A fair-sized crowd gathered here to-
day to celebrate Independence Day and
the programme previously arranged was
carried out. Houston's cornet band fur

horse races, firemen's races and other
sports made good entertainment for the
visitors. The crowd was a very orderly
one and no arrests were reported up to
a late hour. On Monday there is to be

crowds are anticipated than marked the

COPPER MINING IN OLD MEXICO

The veins consist of Chaicocite. Chalcopyrite and pyrite in a gangue of quartz, with some Zeolite. At dn- other locality in Guerrero. namely Cerro Blanco. Aiuchitlan, there are veins carrying chalcopyrite, with ar gentite and other silver minerals, and copper glance with a quartz gangua. These veins occur in granite. At 90 Caliente there are veins carrying s'sl- phfde of copper. iron and silver. cat ting apIite. Fissure veins in rhyolita, with glance and chalcopyrite as p:f- mary minerals. occur in Chihuahua.
 Contact deposits. are frequent CPuertocitas at Cananea; Jimenez. Chihuahua San Jose, Tamaulipas and in Chiapas) ores also occur in normal limestone (Jimulco and Mapimi), iu impregnated sandstones Gas Vigas). and as impregnations of flatbedded igneous tuffs and conglomerates (Bo- leo) and mixed with other metallic sulphides bedded in states tas at (TeziutlanD, and as by-product Jf silver mining tQuintera.)
 According to figures available the copper production of Mexico figures as follows: 1905. 5000 tons; 1906, s0, 900 tons; 1907. 5s.ooo tons; 1908. 3S,200 tons. It may be assumed that the reduced production in 1908 Is largely accounted for by the closing down of the Cananea and the curtail- .nent of other large and small copper properties. With resumption at the Cananea mine and continued activity of other large producers. the produc- ton for the present year may be ex' pected to show a substantial increase, probably attaining the figure of 1907.

According to Walter Harvey Weed, the Mexican copper deposits present a considerable variety in character. In general they are associated with acidic igDeOus rocks, granites ana rhyolites, rather than with the basic rocks which are characteristic Of most of European mines. The greaS central plateau of Mexico and the mountain regions carved from It along it's eastern and western borders are composed on igneous rocks breaking through or resting upon Cretaeeoas Iimelstones, and practically all the great ore deposits which yielded the enormous treasure taken by the Span iards. and which are still productive today, occur in these rocks. While the great silver-lead deposits are n the limestone series, the gold district Of the western Sierra Madre are main ly in andesitic rocks cut and covered by rhyolitic material. To the south west this plateau country ends in the volcanic region of Colima and the val ley of the City of Mexico. A region of more diversified geologic structure is found to the southwest. On the road to Oaxaca folded sedimentary rocks appear resting on complex of crys- talline schists, and these rocks form belt running along the mountain region from a point about IS miles west of Oaxaca to the region west of the Balsas river. According to Agni- lera, the copper deposits of Mexico generally occur in acid granites and rhyolites of Tertiary diorites in the Nina district, Guerrero, and at Caco- ma, Ameca and Jalisco.

MARKET ACTIVITY IS CHECKED Lively Trading Less in Evi- dence Though Little Stock

 AND IN SOME DEMAND
(By Frank J. Graf.)

The activity displayed in yes.er- days copper shares was somewha. checked today. although there was but little stock being forced on the market and from all indications we should see better prices in many of the issues. Superior & Pittsburg closed at l70e, but during the early part of the day sales were made at 17.50 and as low as 1887. Denn Ari- zona is being bought up at 4.5o. There is also very good demand for War ren at 2.75. but this figure fails io bring out any stock. Shattuck is be- ing offered at 1850. The copper met al market at the close was off . shillings. The New York market was strong and very active at the close, the entire list closing at about tis highest mark for the day, especially steels and smelters.

BOSTON. July 7.-After an extreme Iy dull session, the list closed with burst of activity at slightly advanc- ing prices. The market Is in dis tinctly waiting mood and the only sell ing comes from tired holders who are discouraged by the dullness. The buying comes from well informed people who are willing to purchase stocks af this level and wait until fall for their profits.

Will Pay Tor Development.

Yesterday all day the whole face of the drift was in this red oxide with its streaks of native copper and all as rich as the sample which the Re view reporter saw. Further develop nent alone will tell how wide this vein of rich ore is but yesterday it was said that the Denn mine was nov in a position to commence shipments of ore to the Douglas shelter and that as soon as those shipments should begin they would pay for the contin- uation of development work and place the mine on self supporting basis.
 The last month of development work at the Denn has brought series of encouraging reports as to the work ings and the ore in sight so that now the property is more highly thought of locally than for many months past.

SHIPMENTS TO DOUGLAS
 MAY PAY FOR DEVELOPING

It was good news that came from the Denn mine again yesterday. This time it could hardly be termed in the nature of a new strike for the ore found yesterday was encountered ir the same ore body which has been under development for about a month past in the 1250 level. But even if not a new strike the ore which was opened up yesterday morning is O. higher grade and is richer than any which has ever before been encount- cred in any of the workings of the Denn. A sample of this ore was seen yesterday and it is a red oxide thor oughly streaked and sprinkled with native copper and although no assay had been made it looked to run about 30 to 40 per cent copper.
 In drifting west on the 1250 level of the Denn, nearly month ago, some timbering gave way and their was q Slip which disclosed an ore body a little bit earlier than it had been ex. pected to be encountered. From here a cross cut was maze and the drift tug westward was also continued and it has been in this west drift and the, crosscut that the subsequent strikes and the present. rich ore was encount- cred, all in practically the one ore body.

In arguing against the last set of

regularity in the jury room and plead
ed the statute of limitations.
Judge Marshall. i'm his opinion to-
day, contended that the statute of
limitations did not enter into the case
because the conspiracy to defraud al
legged i'm the indictments was contin-
uous and was therefore punishable at
any time. The defendants had con-
tended that the acts charged against
them were committed eight years ago
and that the statute of limitations did
apply.
The demurrer asserted that the gov
ernment officials, had charge of the
sale of the 250 lots in the Muskogee
townsite and could sell or transfer
them to anyone at any price

tended that the scheme of the alleged
conspirators tended to practice
fratd on the government. He said the
laws of the United States provided
that all Indian land transactions must
be approved by the secretary of the
interior and that if an official under
took to act without this authority his
act would not be legal.

the condition of the lots. Judge Mar
