 IS ANSWERED QUICKLY

P. H. smyth. director of the local weather bureau, received request Tuesday from party at Corpus Chris t Tex, for a tabulated monthly report of the rainfall in Alabama since the local station was established in thIs city.
 Now the local weather bureau has been in existence for the past thirty seven years and the request of the Texan would appear to the outsider as difficult task for the assistants at this office. But on account of the sys- tenn employed in the keeping of old records. the undertaking was an easy one.
 In a short time thirty-seven sheets for the thirty seven years. each con- taining the rainfall by months. the temperature and other statistics. had been prepared and were on their way to the far away Texas town.

w. NJ. Cute. manager ofthe Bisbee Extension, is in the city for a few days. and announces that work is pro gressing at the property with a force of between thirty-five and forty men at work Plans fer increasing this force and for sinking to a depth of 200 or 300 feet further are under con. sideration, and 1t is expected that this will be done in the fall.
 The Bisbee Extension property con. sists of some 6o5 acres. and thus far 1000 feet of development work has been done. At the present time work is progressing on the 400 foot level but during the coming winter The shafts are to be deepened. as stated by Mir Cute. and work continued on the COG and roc levels.
 On the 100 level they are now drift ing through leached matter. which is high in copper and manganese. but is not ore. Thus far they have driftei through FOO feet of this matter and are still in it. The geological condi- tions and the indications of metal thus far found in the Bisbee Extension are most encouraging and Mr. Clute feels every confidence that the property will develop into a great mine

GREAT WESTERN WILL
 SHIP ORE TO Il -PAs0
TRACKS ARE NOW BEING LAID re TWO SHAFTS FOR THAT
 PURPOSE.

DOUGLAS. Aug. 4.-(Special.)-
 The Great Western Mining company, operating in the Courtland district, will begin the shipment of copper ore from two of their shafts in the Court land district just as soon as the Mex ico and Colorado railroad can complete the tracks necessary to reach the ere dumps at the Mary and Humboldt shafts.
 Andy Scott, of this city, has been in Courtland for a number of days rushing the grade for the needed side tracks in order that the railroad com pany may accommodate the Great Western company a. the earliest pos sible time.
 It was learned last night that the ore to be shipped first from Courtland w.ll go to the Fl Paso smeiter and this is somewhat surpr sing to those who have all along expected that this ore would come to one of the smelters in this city for reduction. One ex- planat,on of the ore going to Fl Paso is that the Fl Paso smelter is partic- ular to secure the Courtland ores be- cause of its peculiar fitness for mix ing with other ores now on hand. On th's account it is said that Fl Paso bid more for the ore than the Copper Queen cared to pay, besides there was a disposition on the part of the local shelter to allow the Fl Paso smelter to take the Courtlahd ore which they need very badly.
 The ore to be shipped is some of the first taken out of the Courtland mine Is said to be sufficiently high grade to return handsome profits after pay ing the long freight haul.
 Nothing is known as to when the Calumet & Arizona will begin ship ment of ore from their properties in the Courtland district, but this com pany has plenty of ore on the dumps and could begin shipments at any time they should desire to do so.
 Since the completion of the Mexico & Colorado railroad to Courtland busi- ness has been all that was expected and more. Many cars of freight have been hauled to the new district and now that ore shipments are to begin It is expected that the new line will have a profitable business.

SHATTUCK SHOWS UP UNUSUALLY
 STRONG
(By Frank J. Graf.)

The market continues to be strong with an excellent demand for stock and with a strong undertone of bet ter prices to come. Copper metal opening up shillings in London put new life in the copper shares. Cop per Range was strong. sales being made at $S4.0o North Butte sold off. and old Dominion stood profit taking. Sup. & Pitts. holds firm at $17.50. while Greene Cananea was strong. with sales at s10.50. In the curb list Shattuck AAzona was the whole thing. sales being made at $I9.50. and closing at sls.75 bid. Looks as though there was something doing in Shattuck. Let it come. Denn Arizona is being well supported at SAYS. Gila and Chino are both n good demand. Live Oaks is being traded in at s725 as assessment paid. Ray Consolidated was strong and ic- tive. selling at s19.25 at the close. Looks as though some profit taking on this stock would be a good move. The property is good. but it will be some time before they will De in a position to handle their ore. The en. tire market is strong and We look for better prices.
