Washington, March 27.-The monot-
ony of the tariff debate in the house
of representatives was relieved for a
time yesterday by a clash between
Messrs. Fordney Of Michigan and
Byrd of Mississippi, which came near
ending in blows. Mr.. Fordney had
been making an exhaustive discussion
of the lumber schedule when he was
interrupted by the Mississippian, who
insisted that the lumber manufacture
ers, of which Mr.. Fordney was one,
were in a trust. Mr.. Fordney peremp-
torily denied the statement and said
that Mr.. Byrd didn't know a d-n
thing about it."
The Mississippi member made a
move toward Mr.. Fordney and was in
the act of removing his Goa when
some of his Democratic colleagues
took hold of him. Later it developed
that the incident grew u Of a mis-
understanding and both men made
mutual explanations and apologies.
Mr.. Fordney made a notable speech
on the subject Of lumber and pleaded
for better protection on that product
in the rough.

In the Interest of the Gold Belt.

J. F. NiccOlls, secretary of the Gold Belt Development and Reduc- tion company, left last week for an extended trip to New York, where he goes in the interests of the company. It was reported some time ago that the company made arrangements with an eastern firm whereby l00;- 900 shares of the Gold Belt stock will be put on the market at good price. The money derived from the sale of the stock is to be expended upon d gold mill to be erected on the prop erty west of Morenci, where an un- limited amount of water has already been developed. The management of the company is confident that with gold mill ill operation the Gold Belt will assume the position of an independent company. That favor- able arrangements will be made there is little doubt, as the-company has indulged in considerable corr MT. Niccolls, who is one of the old time men of this section, and who formerly owned an interest in the mines before the company was or ganized, will make all necessary ar engagements in New York looking to the best interests of the company, and before returning to Clifton will visit some of the big machinery houses.

Cuprite Company Makes New Discovery.

A copper strike of much importance was made this week on the property of the Cuprite Copper company, above Metcalf. It will be remember ed that the company has expended many thousands of dollars in devel- opment work, without discovering any large bodies of ore, though in the early history of the property, much high grade ore was shipped. Finally good news has been received, which in reality came unexpected and without effort. A considerable amount of work was done on the up- per portion of the Cuprite claim, but the shaft missed the ore. Recently it was decided to do future work in an old tunnel lower down and a force of men were put to work cleaning considerable amount of waste it was discovered that q caye-in had taken place and strange to say, more than three tons of 50 per cent. copper glance ore had fallen, thus revealing the fact that the workings were near what appears to be an exceedingly large body of high grade ore. On ac- count of the dangerous condition of the ground, it has not been de- termined what the magnitude of the strike is, but indications are that d valuable find has been made. It has always been known that the Cuprite company owned valuable ground, but it was never dreamed that they were so near their goal. From now on it is probable that the company wi go ahead with development work with renewed energy.

The New YOrk-AriZOna.

Mr. A. J. Lupton, representative in Salt Lake for the Western Eelaterite Roofing company, of Denver, Colorado, has returned from a trip to the property of the New York-Arizona Gold X Copper com pany, located in the Morenci district of Arizona. During the late panicky times developments at the company mines have progressed steadily and from present indications these labors are about to be rewarded.
 On the Louise claim there is shaft down eighty feet, in which is dis closed an eight-inch vein assaying fifteen per cent copper, one ounce in gold and 15O ounces in silver per ton. This shaft is equipped with a fifteen F. P. Fairbanks-Morse gasoline hoist, out owing to the water flow, work has been discontinued here for the present. Within 100 feet of this shaft is the Thompson tunnel, which has been driven for distance of $50 feet, opening up four-foot vein of ore averaging between SlO and S20 in gold per ton.
 The Buzzard Shadow ties on the eastern boundary of the company's territory and it was here that great deal of rich silver-gold ore was found in the early days. The Buzzard Shadow vein is well defined and has been worked near the surface in several places. The intersection of this vein and the Lillian ledge is the objective point for the Lillian tunnel which is now in over 900 feet, and a splendid ore body is expected when the connection is made. At a point 900 feet in the tunnel and at 23O feet vertical depth, from six to eight feet of ore was encountered which assayed from S2O to $50. The ledge was very much shattered and leached and with depth should make into something fine. Work is being pushed in this

COUNTY DIVISION is one of the leading questions now being discussed in this end of the county, and that it is great necessity there is abso- lutely no doubt. The old cry of in- creased taxation has been raised against it, but it is a positive fact that it has been demonstrated time and again that smaller counties can be conducted on a cheaper, or at least as cheap, taxation basis as large ones. County division has the sup port of all the heaviest taxpayers in the eastern end of Graham county, and as they have already thoroughly investigated the possibility of iL- creased taxation, and are still willing to divide the county, there is no req son why this measure should not re- ceive the approval of the legisla- ture. Many times has it been said that the valley wanted to get rid of the eastern section of the county, and now that they have the chance they certainly should not protest. The long scope of unsettled country between this end and the other, which neccssitates the travel ing of many unnecessary miles and the loss of time, is a hardship that should be stopped. 1t has already been going on too lOn%-an extra eN- penSe not only to the county. but to the people who attend or have busi- ness in the courts.

THE three big mining companies of the Clifton-Morenci district, which are now outputting at the rate of 6,OOO,OOO pounds of copper per month, are all in active working or der, aul should the price of the metal reach a higher mark, it is a safe prediction that this district will produce even a better aver age. Like many of the other big copper camps ot this territory the Clifton -Morenci district has gradu- ally increased until today it is one of the most important factors in the wonderful record of Arizona as the leading copper producer of the United States. In addition to the companies operating their own ones, which are now in their infancy, being compelled to ship their ores to custom smelters. The history of the various companies of this district have all been interesting ones Well do old timers remember the time when the original shares Of the Ari- zoua Copper company went begging at 60 cents, while today they are worth considerable over SlOO. Look ing back at the Shannon for period of eight years, we find that the stock ot that company sold for S2 50 per share, while today it is around the SI5 mark, and the same might be applied to the D. c. company with accuracy. For this very reason many of the small companies operating in this district, the stock of which is selling at exceeding low prices, will, within ten years, show a similar diff ference.

Shannon Acquires Another Group in
 GreenIee District.

A deal was closed this week where by the Shannon Copper company takes over the Greenlee-Paul-T Travis groups of gold-silver-copper claims, joining the Copper King New England property on the northeast. The groups represent II full cl aims, among which are some of the best in this district. The purchase price has not been made public, but it is understood that it is handsome figure, divided into easy payments and upon most favorable terms. It Is understood that the Shannon will, as soon as
 possible, put a large force of men to
 work on the property and push devel- opment work rapidly. Those inter- ested in the sale of the property are O. J. Cotey, L. Travis, Geo. Williams, Hank Dorsey and MT. Paul. These claims are the oldest locations in the Greenlee district, having been put on record in the early eighties, and re- present portion of the best mineral district in this section. The claims are located on what is known as the famous Copper King ledge, hence un- der the management of an aggressive company like the Shannon, there is little doubt of development of an mineral producers in that section.

Baseball News.

At a meeting of those who will take part in the baseball sport this season, held last Sunday afternoon, the following officers were elected: T. B. Inglis, president; P. Riley, manager: F. D. Mason, captain: George Longwell, secretary and treasurer. It was decided that the team should be under the control of the manager and captain exclusively, who will arrange the games and place the men in the field. In addi- tiOn to the old members of the team two new players have applied for places, Nielsen, who has played with ameteur teams in Chicago, and Smith of the western league. Quill ing, Williams, Riley, Mason, Ward, Pique, Fehrman, Dunn, Longwell, Nelson and Smith took part in the first practice, and it is reported all showed up well. Another possible with a strong wing is Sam Andrews, who will receive d try out for the slab. Brock, one of the best catch CTS that ever played with the locals, has been signed for the same position.
 The other players mentioned above are well known to the Clifton people, and as they are all in good form, chances are exceedingly good for a real fast team this season. With Riley as manager, the boys have selected one equipped with eXperi- ence in that line. The boys have de- cided to make this one of the most successful seasons in the history of local baseball and instead of asking donations will request nothing but solid support in attendance. Or in other words they intend to give value received for everything they get. As a starter they will give d grand ball at the Casino on St. Pat rick night, March 17th, to which they will commence selling tickets in the near future, and those interested in baseball should purchase tickets whether they attend the dance or not.
 Minor Simms. one of the old time players of the game, has been chosen as official umpire for this season.

The men are making Cliff ton their headquarters and the hills are covered with the operators, and indications are that this new railaoad from now on will be pushed as rapidly as possible. The survey ing is under the supervision of sev- eral expert engineers and as the Shannon company means business, the dirt will be flying as soon as all right-of-wa are obtained. The matter of right-of-way has already been arranged with but few excep- tions, hence little delay is expected from this source.
