Dreamed of Golden Loot

During the testimony of Wise Ire
brought out the point that on the night
of the murder and attempted capture
OF the ship West had told him that
there was a large amount of gold dust
in the pursers safe. This bears out

were after big booty and not the mere
few hundred dollars the robbing of the
passengers would have afforded. 1t

Equally Guilty Of
Captain S Murder

Death is the penalty that confronts
George Wise, the naval deserter, for his
participation in the piraticaI plot on
the steamer Buckman and the murder
of its captain. The youthful bandit has

as a principal in the crime. He is
equally guilty in the eyes of the law,

cost the life of Captain Wood

He makes no defense, save that he was
drawn into the conspiracy against his

The Mudhole is front rank gold property, one which continues to improve with depth. It has one of the most com plete working equipments in the territory.
 Prescott Courier: D. c. Gillette returned last evening from an ex- animation of group of quartz claims twenty miles from Hillside.

 William News: At meeting of the Board of Directors of the Mint Gold Mining and Milling Co.,, Sept. 10, Director of Works Montgomery introduced resolution which passed without dissenting vote. The resolution makes the minority stockholders who purchased treas ury stock direct from the treasury of the company preferred stock holders to the extent that all such stockholders who retain their hold ings shall be given a preferred dividend out of the first net earn ings of the company equal to the amount each purchaser paid for his or her stock. This preferred dividend not to apply to owners, promoters or incOrpOrators, or others who may have acquired their stock through any other source than a direct cash purchase from the company's treasury. This action of the directors of the Mint com pany will be the cause of great deal of favorable comment inas- much as the directors are now figuring on ceasing the sale of treasury stock about October b.
 Morenci Standard A rich strike was made last week by the Cananea. Boston company which recently was organized and began operating north and west of the city in the lead.zinc- silver district. The strike was made in an old shaft which was sunk several years ago and which has just been cleaned out and timbered. At the bottom of the shaft, at depth of about 40 feet, drift was begun on the vein sand the first shot uncovered vein of to3 1.2 feet in width and which was composed of almost solid gaIena, carrying silver to the amount of 150 ounces. Additional work on the drift has uncovered more ore and some beautiful speci- mems of galena and native silver have been taken from the workings. The new shaft, an incline, is located at the southwestern portion of the property. It is being sunk on an incline and has reached a depth of 70 feet. The shaft is bot toned ih tale and every indication points to the discovery of an ore body in this hole.

He has succeeded in sink. ing a shaft to depth of fifty feet and at the bottom has encountered seven feet.of ore which yields from SIP to $14 in free milling gold Mir. Bentley is sanguine over the prospects and expects to induce some company or capitalists to take hold of the property and erect reduction works. The old Goodwin mine, twelve miles west of Quartz. site, is being worked by w. E. Scott, who has succeeded, with the aid of one-stamp mill, in taking out several thousand dollars in gold during the summer, working only the richest ore, which runs from $50 to $80 per ton.
 Bisbee Miner: Stock of the Shattuck Arizona Mining company, after long delay has been listed upon the Boston Stock Exchange, this event having taken place on September 9 being announced here yesterday. The news of the listing of the security, while it had been expected for several weeks, created considerable satisfaction when 1t became known. For the reason that it had been expected by every one who was familiar with the com pany's property, no appreciable effect was noticeable upon the stock price. Fore knowledge discounted this. Several weeks since Judge J. M. O'Connell and l.. c. Shattuck visited New York and Boston to attend to details of listing Their visit followed visit to Bisbee by an expert in the employ of the stock exchange who looked over the company's property and rem dered report upon hls finding. Since the return of Messrs. Shat tuck and O'Connell from the east listing has been expected daily. This was delayed however by the customary change in all stock cer- idcates to pass current upon the exchange having to be engraved. The engraved stock having been prepared and inspected by the governors of the exchange an- nouncement of listing was made. All stock certificates held by local people have been sent in to be ex- changed for the new.
