PRESIDENT DOW Of CORB|N
 COPPER TELLS IF SITUATION

Boston-Prcsident stephen R. Dow, of Corbin Copper Co, who with Director R. M Edwards, has just returned from a visit to the property at Corbin. Montana, says:
 'Mr. Edwards and were very we1 pleased with conditions. Deyel- opment has been necessarily slow, as we had to feel our way until we had demonstrated that the tun- nels we were driving were prop erly located to mine the veins clross- ing the property. We have large acreage with many surface shewings of ore, and mistakes are costly.
 We adopted the tunnel method of opening the property, aJ 1t is less expensive than shaft sinking and avoids hoistins and pumping The hilly nature of the country en- ables us to get depth in the veirs quickly by running the tunnels at different elevations. We have al ready driven 14,000 feet of tunnels and at very low cost.
 The Dewey is in about 1000 feet practically all the way in vein nat ter, but with the walls not well de- fined and with the formation very much broken up. We did some stoping in Ste Dewey and sunk a winze fer l6 feet. The Irregular for nation and the fact that consider. able water xas encountered in the winze made 1t seem expedienr to work temporarily cs this ore can b. mined better f,on the Bulanza tunnel
 The Bonanzs is 207 feet bs;ow the Dewey and is In about 1fes feet, but we have 200 or 300 feet more to as before we can connect with the Dewey vinze. The formation here is much more settled than in the Dewey
 f'in the Rasalie, which is a cross cut tunnel 33o feet below the Bonan- ga, we ran a drift to the south and encountered the vein. At this point it is 314 feet wide with both

THE WORLDS TIN OUTPUT

At the present time the worlds tin production is probably not over 125,00 tons a year, and Of this quan- tity the United States produces a small fraction of per cent prsbably not more than 75 tons. The open ing of the nrst southern smelter in Lincoln county North Carolina, indicates the expansive effect of high prices of tin upon productive activity. Within the past 10 years the price of tin from the Striats has never ranged below s500 ton and in 1906 it was as high as s7o75 ton.
 At the present time s500 a short ton is not far from what the market pays for the product of the Feder- ated Malay states of southeastern Asia, where most of the production is found The value of the metal is fixed by auction quotations for Straits gin at Singapore In order to protect the smelling industry there an export duty of 8 1-3 per cent ad valorem is placed on the orc unless it be for sme3ting in a coun- try under British rule. In that case the duty is 10 per cent on the tin content. Or the tin itself, pig form, an export duty of io per cent is collected
 Another eGect Of advancing prices via be 10 stimulate the process oi [ recovering tin from scrap metal bronze and various other forms. in cluding tir cans. In reporting on this phase of the industry, the United States Geological Survey says: "The amount of tin wasted in tin cans that have been used and thrown away and the solder used on them is very great, and is an extravaganza which from broad economic view is deplorabie. ID the past 10 years the United States has imported for consumption quan- , tities ranging from 3o0o0 to oeoco short tons of tin year.

UNFORTUNATE SUICIDES

T am tired of living. I am broke and sick Am also tired of my life and I think the best way for me is to kill myself. write this so that no one will be blamed for my death. l have no home or friends, so bury me any way you can"
 This was the lest message written by Marie Smith before she took car bolic acid. Later. and when life seemed almost gone, she was found suffering agonies from the effects of the burning fluid and Dr. Vanneman was summoned, too late to do any thing for her. The inquest was held at McGarty's undertaking parlors this morning and the verdict was the only one that could be rendered. suicide" 1"
 It is the old story of sin, sorrow Iand death; only in this case it is all left to the imagination, for little is known of the woman who tired of it all and sought oblivion in death. She was ''oniy a denizen of the redilght district and the others of her class know nothing of her be yond the fact that she appeared to be about 8 years of age and came here from Fl Paso. She. herself wrote that she had neither home nor friends. and her story is told in he- last pencil written message except that much. a life story of sadness s'n and suffering can be read between the lines of that pathetic missive.

ELIAS CONFIDENT

TUCSON. Nov. s2.-Consul Elias. representative of the Mexican gov ernment in this city. is watching the reported uprising in Mexico with keen interest, but knows that the govern mant will put down any trouble with the same firmness which has characterized it in such emergencies. In fact Mr. Elias asserts that the government already has it's heel on the instruction.
 From communications an6 newspa- pers published in Mexico Mir. Elias gains informat' on that. the borders of the United States are being closely watched for arms the rebels are try ing to smuggse in, and the watch has been fruitful. Consignments of arms have been captured at San Antonio, Brownsville, Laredo and thirty miles south of Del Rio, Tex. These arms had been shipped from Chicago St. Louis. Cincinnati and other central points and were marked hardware. They were purchased by the band oi Mexican reyolutionists who have headquarters in San Antonio, and were shipped across the border in some instances and concealed in caves. However the government beat the rsvolutionists to the con. signments and they have been con fiscated.
 Messages from Mexico City state
 that the Amer can police and au- thcrities are doing what they can to prevent these shipments, and the of ficers of the two nations along the border are working concertedly in harmony. Mr. Elias is certain that the feeling of friendship between the two countries is permanent, and he laughs heartily at any suggestion that one or two personal difficult' es might cause a severance Of such relations

RICH SILVER STRIKE REPORTED

 According to assays run in Parker the ore carried nearly 5oO ounces of silver, about 12 per cent copper. a large percentage in lead and some gold values. Mir. Day stated to a Post representative that the ore averaged approxlmately s2e0 per ton. and that there was a big ledge of it outcppping on the surface several hundred feet in length and from six to eight feet in width. The country. he said: was highly miner alizd for miles around the original discovery.
 It is learned that Day & Price have located townsite and that a town will be started in the vicinity Of the strike.
 A F. Bowers returned from the new strike yesterday. He reports the original discovery as being n rich proposition, the ore shoot being exposed for 200 feet in length and eight feet in width.

There has been consIGeraOe ex- citement in mining circles the past week over rich strike reported to nave been made in the old Woman mountains, sixteen miles from Mil iigan a station on the Parker di- vision of the Santa Fe railroad. About a dozen outfits have already left Parker for the scent Jof the new discovery and it is said pros. pectors and mining men from al directions are beginning to arrive there.

FIRST NATIONAL COPPER.

Boston-The decline in First Na' tional shares yesterday to 3-4 per share brings the price of the stock down to S2 per share less than th@ assessments recently levied The de cline is beIievd to indicate increased apprehension as to the ability oi the Cottrell process to solve the company's fume problems.
 The local management in Califor mia has some misgivings as to the ability of this process to do what is claimed for it. It knows one thine however and that is that if the smelter continues to belch forth sulphurous fumes which are des tructive to agricultural lands, the farmers. backed by the courts, will shut the smelter down good and tight
 In the event that the smelter sus bends operations it means the com p,ete cessation of mining operation as the ores are too low in grade to stand a freight charge to the nearest available custom smeiter

the hanging and footwalls well de- fined. It carries a foot of high. grade shipping ore containing cop per, silver and gold. The remaining 214 feet Is concentrating ore.
 This is by far the most favor able ground we have encountered. We shaJ continue the drift until we can commence stoping up to a connection with the Bonanza. All three tunnels can then be drained through the Rosalie and the ore taken out by gravity.
 "The concentrator more than came up to expectations. We had the usual trouble incidental to any new machinery, hut got it adjusted so that it ran perfectly and with very small loss in the tallings. We treated about 5000 or 5000 tons of ore in all, and have lot of concen- trates that we can ship at any time.
 We shall run the concentrator permanently as soon as the Bonanza is connected with the Dewey winze. This connection should have been made some time ago, but we were delayed about six weeks by the forest fires near the property. We put nearly all our men to fire fight- ing and were fortunate to save all of our 300 acres of standing timber. The men are now back at work in the tunnels.
 We ars very fortunately situated as regards power. water and trans portation facilities. and if the veins continue to improve as now indi- cated there is no reason why ws should not be a good-sized producer during the coming year.
 "A very important development in the Corbin camp recently has been the cutting of the Bertha vein by the Boston ( Corbin at the. so0- foot level and a showing six feet of good ore thus indicating that the topper ores carry to depth. The Boston & Corbin shaft is the deep est in the district"

Brick Weighing Five Pounds Attracts Great Interest
 When Brought In
MUCH IS EXPECTED
 FROM THIS FIELD
President Harrington En- thusiastic Over Flu
 ture of Camp

A gold brick weighing five pounds from the stamp mill of the Lost Gulch United Mines company, whose mines are located in Lost Gulch just west of the Warrior group of claims, attracted considerable attention in the counting rooms of the Globe Bank & Savings company yesterday.
 The brick was brought to the city by President Harrington, who is en- thusiastic over the outlook. In an in tervew yesterday MT. Harrington stat ed that he was positive the company had big gold producer and intimated that with the addition of few stamps the mine would early pass to the divi- dend paying class. The company is operating in clearly defined Assure vein, which promises great values in the immediate future. Owing to an accident to the pumps cessation of work has been made necessary for a few days. The mine will resume just as soon as new pump can be secured.
 Old proSpectors have had great faith in the gold possibilities of the Lost Gulch district for years. The Silver Belt, about twenty months ago, made an exhaustive writeup of this section and predicted that it would gain prom, thence as a gold producing district.
 Intelligent development work, such as Mr. Harrington is doing, is proving the accuracy of the prophecy. There are a number of other good groups in the dis. trict equally as promising that are only awaiting capital to develop them into profitable mines.

Must Answer Questions at Rate of One Hundred
 and Fifty Daily
ENUMERATORS MAKE
 REPORT EACH DAY
Number of Queries Indica- tive of Great Interest
 Taken in Work

Regardless of what the people of this city may think of conditions in Globe at the present time, there is at least one place in the city where the daily activity makes a bargain day look tame. That is the office of F. F. TOwle, territorial supervisor of census.
 The work of taking the census is now well under way, but as the enumerators are still new to their work, and are con- stantly encountering situations in which they need advice from Supervisor Towle, they are sending in letters and telegrams to the extent of about l50 day.
 None of the queries are difficult to answer, but at the same time, the task of answering that number of communi, cations daily is no small piece of work and Mr. Towle and his assistants are working overtime to keep up with the never ending stack of correspOn. dence.
 In order that none of the enumerators might start on the wrong track and make mistakes in filling out the enumer. ation blanks, they are required to send in the blanks containing the data se cured from the first ten families in. terrogated. Practically all of the enum orators of the territory have sent ir this data and on the whole, their ef forts have been satisfactory. In a few instances, minor errors have been made but all of the census takers working under Mir. Towle seem to have graspeo the idea very thoroughly
 "'SOme work connected with this of flee these days?' answered Mr. Towlt in response to a similar query yes terday. "Well rather. Take look at this stack of letters and telegram> if you don t think so. I have donC nothing all day but read telegrams anC correspondence and dictate replies. At the same time, | am glad tC have this work on hand The number of queries coming in from the enumer ators shows that they are deeply inter ested in their work. Where men are in | terested in what they are doing, gooC results are sure to follow and l an confident that Arizona will receive al enumeration this year that will equa the work of the department anywhere in the United States"
