BREAKS PLEDGE TO BAR
MEAT AND CHOKES TO DEATH
Chicago Man Could Resist
Temptation No Longer.

CHICAGO, Feb. AT least one
death in chicago can be charged up to
the meat boycott. Last night after a
vegetarian diet for four days, Goif
Peller, sign painter, could resist no
longer and began ravenously upon a
huge beefsteal1 and choked to death
on almost the first mouthful.
Peller purchased large steak,
cooked it himself at the paint shop,
and. combining it with loaf of bread,
made a giant sandwich. Two Fellow
workmen we're present and Peller
imagined they were envying him the
meal
"You fellows are not going to get
any of this; it is too good to waste
he said. and then he began to choke.
A piece of the steak lodged in his
throat and although the three men did
their best to pull it out, they could
not. Peller died before physician ar
rived. t.

New York.-Through a decision of the Supreme Court of the state of New York. Edwin Brush. vice-president of the American Smelling & Refining Co. must stand examination at the hands of counsel for the United Met als Selling Co. in a suit brought by them against the American Smelling
 Refining Co. alleging breaking of a contract in connection with sales of copper.
 The suit brought by the Metals Co. asks damages of s1,000,O00. The Smelt ing Co. in its answer. asks that this case be dismissed. and files a counter claim for $s14.es9.
 This suit helps explain the bad blood" which has existed for some time between the two interests and has been credited to the alleged eA- cessive smelting charges which the Guggenheims made on Utah Consoli dated ore.
 In its bill of complaint, the Metals Co. alleges that in 1901 it entered into a contract with the Smelting Co. to act as their sole selling agent for a commission of 1 per cent.
 In 1903 it was agreed that settle ment should be made on the basis of

 Oregon Electric is an interurban line which operates 70 miles of stand ard gauge road out of Portland. One line goes south of Salem. paralleling Southern Pacific between the two cit , ies and competes with that road for business of the Willamette Valley Northern Pacific has been able to get 1 some of this business in the past by division of rates agreement with the Hartman line.
 ! A schedule for an alliance of the i electric road with the Hill lines has
 been practically agreed upon after . year of desultory negotiations. The agreement will give the rich valley dis trict another outlet to the East. Oregon Electric will connect ovel

UNITED eoID MINES.

PRESCOTT March 21-I H. Morrison, superintendent of the United Gold Mines company. who re turned to his company's camp at Congress this morning, says that the new mill and cyanide plant is working satisfactorily and giving good results and that it will be started in steady operation with day and night shifts at once Since the mill was finished it has been run only in day time owing to the lack Of capacity of the cyanide plant to treat the produc.- The cyanide plant has been enlarged and IS now capable of treating the entire product of the mill.
 Development of the mine will also be pushed with larger force and while the ore bodies now blocked out are being mined and milled new ground will be opened. The mine par alle1s ,he Congress mine a half mile west of the latter The Alaska vein has the same general dip as the Congress and the ores are very similar in character so that the pro cess Of treatment in the new plant is similar to hat of the Congress mill with the exception of a few late i'm provements.
 D. J. Sullivan. present and general manager of the company and Superin- tendent Morrison are confident thai the property will prove among the large producers of the country at an early date.

BAD BLOOD BETWEEN TWO BIG
 COMPANIES EXPLAINED IN SUIT

the Engineering & Mining Journal quotations week by week.
 In February. 1907. the contract was modified by providing that the Metals Co. should continue to buy all the copper produced by the Guggenheims, but that the Guggenheims should esti- mate the production for the third month ahead, and settlement should be made on the Engineering & Mining Journal current figures. For example. the February settlement would be for copper expected to be produced in the following May. If the Guggenheims produced more copper than they esti. mated; the Metals Co. were to settle at the Engineering Journals price in the month of actual delivery.
 The Metals Co. alleges that from May to october. 1907; the Smelling Co. violated the contract by delivering more than its own regular product. The Metals Co. claims that during practically the whole life of the con tract the copper market declined and that by delivering surplus copper not its own the Smelling Co. received $1.- GOO. .000 more than it wiuld have through shipping solely it's own copper.

PIMA COUNTY MINES.

TUCSON. March 21.-A transfer of mining property of considerable i'm portance was effected yesterday. when the Cobre Grande group of claims, To- cated twenty-three niles west of Fort Thomas. in the Santa Teressa range of mountains was sold to Albert F. s Cooper of Chrome, N. J., representing the brokerage house of Wheeler & Shaw, of Boston, Mass.
 The Cobre Grande property consists of fourteen claims, aggregating about 2s0 acres of mineral land The pur chase price was about S1000 900, dis tributed in semi-annuai payments over a period of two years. The people from whom the property was pur- chased are Julius Riser and F. A. Yeast of Globe and w A Clark of the Aravapai mining district in which the claims are located, is widely and favorably known for its mineral de- pOsits. Recently this region has been attracting much attention among min ing men, and the Cobre Grande. among others, has been visited by a number of reputable engineers. ali of whom were favorably impressed.
 The surface showings of the Cobre [ Grande group are excellent and from all indications this property should I become a valuable mine with proper development. The prospect work done on the property so far consists of a number of tunnels, ranging in length from 50 to zoe feet One of i these tunnels. which has attained a vertical depth of so feet, has crosscut iod of rich ore for distance of 42
 feet The material from this vein averaged about per cent in copper and also runs high in sulphur and iron. Those who have inspected the ore say that there is no better self-fuxing material in this part of Arizona than that found on the Cobre Grande group. The copper on this property occurs in both the form Of chalcopyrite and chalcocite.
 The firm Of Wheeler & Shaw, pur- chasers of th property. will not form a company at once for the purpose of pursuing development work. but will first expend their own capital in fur. ther exploration work The plan for the present is to begin operation February % with a force Of twelve or l fifteen men. The first improvement to be made on the property will be to sink a shaft to explore the vein at depth, and this work may reasonably be expected 10 result in some surpris- i inglyfayorable revelations concerning the extent of the ore body. According to present expectations a development company will be formed in about six months.
 Mr. Cooper, who will leave for Bos- ton about February 21. will return and assume charge of the property while 1t is being developed
 ! The sale of the Cobre Grande group Is significant. not only because it adds another working mine to the long list Dh tHO9S DVlhs oSfSfOpEu III tniS t'dts of Arizona but also because it marks the entrance Of a new and powerful operating company into the central Arizona field.
 Mir. Cooper. who has effected the transfer of the cobre Grande land,
 became widely known in and near Globe al the time of his residence here a few years ago

STOCK MARKETS, RA|LROADS, FINANCIAL AND MINING
DIGGING FOR METEOR
 NEAR CANON D|ABLO

Under operation in Coeonino coun- ty, near Canyon Diablo. at the pres ent time, is one of the most novel and important mining projects that
 has ever been undertaken in the
 Southwest--that of the attempt to recover a big meteor which is sup posed to be imbedded in the ground , at the point being worked.
 This gigantic mining task is under the direction of s. P. Holsinger, a
 prominent miner of the northern
 part of the territory. and well known in business circles generally of the above county.
 In speaking of this movement, he stated that it was his firm belief.
 supported by scientific men, that the immense displacement in evidence
 at the point he is sinking on. is not
 an extinct crater, but the gigantic opening is in reality due to the in-
 trusion of the soil by a meteor that
 entered the ground generations ago. From rim to rim in this opening ! it is 1900 feet. and from what MT.
 Holsinger can learn, it is the suppo-
 sition that the meteor is lying at a depth practically of 600 feet The
 dimensions of this heavenly body is
 computed as at least 300 feet in
 diameter. and has value in the min erals it holds. and especially in nick
 el. at several hundreds of thousands of dollars
 Up to the present time the depth , in a vertical shaft reached is about 200 feet, where a body of water was
 encountered Pumping machinery is
 to be introduced, when sinking will 1 be resumed. The formation favors
 this noteworthy work of exploitation
 and, if the big ball is recovered, in-
 dividual achievement will be hand
 somely rewarded. as we'll will the
 scientific world be wholesomely re
 garded for accomplishing what up to the present time has never been fulfilled to any appreciable extent

FINAL COUNTY MINES.


 PHOENIX, March 21.-Pinal coun- ty people are now greatly excited over what they believe to be the greatest gold strik that has been made in this section of Arizona. Dozens of claims have been staked out on an iron dyke abot three miles east of the territo-
 rial prison.
 Recently an old prospector told Cap tain Tom Rynn,ng, prison superin- tendant. that he wanted to do some ] prospecting and believed that he would go over and see what was in
 the iron dyke. Rynning staked h.m
 te grub and toois.
 After being gone two days. the pros pector returned with a black piece , of rock and asked that it be assayed. It was the start of the excitement that has followed, the rock assaying
 s1.00O in gold to the ton. Three as says averaged $500 in gold. Rynning
 said nothing to outsiders. but taking
 several of the prison attaches. went
 to the iron dyke and spent last Sun day locating claims. Then the news | leaked out. and since last Sunday country around the dyke for miles ] Is covered with monuments.
 For years prospectors and mining men have passed. crossed and re- crossed the big hlack dyke in which the strike w2s made. no one ever sus- i pecting that the unpromising looking iron rock carried any gold. It re-
 mained for the prospector a few days ago to lay bare the secret of the rocks treasure.
 Discussing the strike this morning. Justice Parker remarked that he had probably passed the same dyke fifty times while going into other mining districts on business. He always sup
 posed that it was like many other similar dykes and carried a small percentage. of iron. but nothing more
 valuable.
 4. c. Wilson, who returned to
 Phoenix yesterday from Kelvin. stat ed that not since the paimy days or mining in Pinal county have the peo- ple been so excited as they are this week. Nothing is talked about in Florence Kelvin. Ray and the small CT camps. but the strike in the iron dyke.
 During the past few days rigs or have been rented at high prices by those who want to get to the scene Of the strike as soon as possible.
 Many have arrived there to locate any ground within miles of the strike.
 For three mics the big iron dyke has been traced through the country. It averages thirty feet in width and most of it is said to assay gold

COPPER MARKET.

NEW YORK-Althougn some ad- verse influences have affected the copper market since publication of the Copper Producers figures. several Of the large selling agencies and pro ducers decline to make concessions in prices. One of the large metal selling companies has no copper on hand to speak of. Spectators who has also been carrying large amounts Of copper have recently disposed of heir hold ings.
 The copper trade holds that March production will show a heavy falling off. as only a small percentage of the shrinkage in January and February was reflected in last months figures.
 Sales have been made as low as 13 1-2 cents a pound but certian large interests are quoting 13 5-S 70 l3 3-4 cents. for eiectrolytic.

 Prospects for a settlement of the differences between railroads and Firmen's union were much more en- courag5ng this morning and as re- suit the rails were stronger. The sit nuation in Philadelphia is improving daily and it Is quit probable things will assume a normal condition before the end of this week. Speculation was not on a large scale and there were no marked features during the session. Prices advanced one to one and a half points over Saturday s close, later on losing half of the ad- vance and closing at about one half per cent improvement throughout the list I consider stocks a purchase at this level although several days may elapse before full confidence is re- stored among heavy operators. Sales 429, SOC. Money ? 3-l per cent on cail loans.

After months of quietness and inactivity new fife has been placed in this issue and from all indications this stock has just started to get somewhere near its actual value That these people intend to pay a dividend in the very near future is almost cer tain and it is this that is putting the stock in new light. Sales opened this morning at 25 and at the close sales were made at 27.0O. This advance i' watched with great interest for Ari zona and especially Bisbee is a heavy holder of this stock. It has been said by some that they expsc to see Shattuek to sell at 35.0C within a very short time and it i Keeps up the present rate it will sel at that figure before the close of tn, week
