VULTURE OPERATES TWO
SHAFTS AND 10 STAMPS

PRESCOTT, Sept. 4.-Earl Rogers,
who has been at the Vulture mine,
near Wickenburg during the erection
of the new mill for r. c. Jenson, who
Is also contracting on that job for the
ID. d. Demerest company of San Fran
cisco, says this company, which pur-
chased the once famous Vulture mine,
which had a production record of over
S16. .OOO. 900 to it's credit and was still
reported to be a good mine, has now
about completed a system of develop
ment necessary to place it upon its
one-time record producing gait as a
gold producer.
Mr.. Rogers says two shafts are now
in operation, one being 600 feet deep
and the other 400 feet The company
recently installed a new 2O-stamp VIII
in connection with the old mill of the
same number of stamps. In addition
to this they have installed a new cya-
hide system which will handle a con-
tinuous percolation system of tailings'
instead of the old-fashioned system
of handling by the hour.
The future outlook for this section
of country Is very favorable looking
toward the increasing of the produc-
zion of northern Arizona. This com
many has $50 men at the mine and the
stamps used in the new mill are the
heaviest ever imported to this coun-
try, weighing 1900 pounds eacn'

SANTA ROSALA STRIVES
TO SETTLE Difference

BISBEE, Ariz,, Sept. 4.-There can
be little doubt that the troubles OF
the Santa Rosala Mining company are
drawing to a close. Not alone is
conciliation between the Calumet fac
tion and the Clancy element of the
stockholders almost accomplished but
foreman of the property has been Or
dered to secure men and start at
work Immediately with a full com
plement of three shifts day. This
was the information vouchsafed by w.
L. Edwards, a heavy stockholder in
the company, shortly before he left
Bisbee for Cananea.
Finances have been arranged, Mr..
Edwards said, and no anxiety need
be felt by stockholders as to the con-
tinuity of work upon the mine. This
will proceed steadily from this time
on. Mr.. Edwards is very enthusiasts
tic about the property and its ore
showing declaring it to be his belief
that it will turn out to be one of the
greatest gold producers in Sonora.
In response to a telegram of con-
ciliatory nture, President Summervllle
and Attorney C. l. Reynolds left yes
terday for Caliment, where conference
will be held. 1t is believed that at
this meeting every point of difference
between the contesting elements VIII
be satisfactorily adjusted.

GLOBE, Sept. 4.-To pave the way
for the reorganization Of the company,
the property of the Pinto Creek Mining
and Smelling company has been sold
at auction to Missouri capitalists,
which include Charles Riemen OF st.

STRONG LEASING OUTFIT
WILL OPERATE ON COD.
Company Organized for System
attic Exploitation Has Fund of
Fifty Thousand Dollars

GOLDFIELD, Sept. 4.-Another
strong leasing company starts work
on the C. o. D. today with fund of
$4,000 already provided for operations.
The company will be known as the
Iowa Mining and Leasing company,
and its ground is the old Kansas City
C, o. D. lease, on the ridge west of
the Gold Bar shaft. Their operations,
however, will be carried on through
the Stills shaft, which is 600 feet deep
and from which crosscuts will be dri-
ven into the ground covered by their
lease.
The company is backed by men who
control large elevator interests ana
they are prepared for an earnest cam
paign of development. Very encour-
aging .alues have been exposed IN
this ground by the old workings ana
this company proposes to drive Tor
them from the deepest shaft on the
G. o. d. estate.
IT is also probable that the Sills
company will resume operations In
a short time, and they are planning
to put the shaft down to a depth or
1000 feet and do extensive eXpIora-
tion from there.
w. #. Gray and Harry Ruhl, who
have been in the east for some time,
In the interest of the Copper-Gold
Mining company are expected to re-
turn to Goldfeld Immediately and op-
erations will be resumed on their lease
on the Gold Bar.
The ore bodies recently discovered
on the 400 level of the Victor work.
ings continue to open in splendid
shape as to extent and the values are
improving. Taken altogether, the
outlook on the c. o. D. is most sub
stantial and encouraging.

LONDON PAPER DEFENDS
THE AMERICAN WOMEN
Answers Critic Who Based State
ment on Dr.. Halls Lecture

LONDON. Sept. At was to be eX-
pected that someone on this side OF
the water would pounce on Dr StaH-
lev Hall of Clark college, Worcester
Mass, for defending Irritation and de-
fining love itself as an "emotlVe on
session" DR.. Emil Reich has uone
this in the Daily Express ana tdhei
denim the American woman as M. @
who flirts without having respect for
her victim.
DIR. Reich does not wonder at all that
DR.. Hall finds that love is merely nloT-
bidity among American women. he
saws they have no 'pectoral moneh.
tunn," which is the reason they eahhoe
love and which is also the cause oi
their thin voices and the celebrated
American twang. Love and friendship
among American women, says Dr'
Reich have practically no Importance.
The Daily Express then goes on TO
say: - ori+ioisn, of
American women that we have heard
during the past aalf century Iney
are accused of having no blood, put
onIv ice water flowing in their veins,
Cold and bold-this is the criticism
most often heard of them.
"Now the fact Of the matter is that
the average American woman, 1dr
from being cold is an artist in love.
She has a keen perception OF all lts
little shades and gradations.
Instead of falling in love she more
often grows in love- which is Iar tHe
hammer and wiser thing. Her so-called
.hirtation' is merely the beginning OF
what DR.. Reich names as the war pe-
tween men and women But your true
American woman does not admit the
theory of a natural war between the
sexes Her Irritation is the beginning
of the peace of her soul.
ut has become the fashion 10 eau
the American woman flirt. Yet when
we ask her critics why she is a f1irt
lthev answer that she leads men on
and gives them to understand that she
wants them to propose to her When
she has no intention of accepting tnen.
'oThis is the basest of ISLANDERS II IL
is applied to American women IN Ihe
main. In the spirit of good comrade-
ship they accept attention from men III
the most natural way wlthout pesI1r sli.
ming at once to ponder upon the men
intentions.
"The average American man does
NOT consider his countrywomen to be
hirts. and I have yet to meet the
American man who says that coldness
in love is one of their natural TRAITS.
Indeed, the American man LOOKS, upon
the Englishwoman as cold, ana more
than once have 1 heard American men
accuse the Englishwoman OF knowing
nothing of the rules of the game when
II comes to friendship as distinguished
from courtship.
''This is the reason so many amer
lean men give for disinclination TO
marry Englishwomen, or rather they
give it as their reason for not attempt
ing to court them.
"Be this as it may, the accusatlon
of GOODNESS against American women women
COMES as a Joke to one who really
knows them. Imperviousness to love
is surely not their distinguishing trait;
"Their lack of 'pectoral momentum
NAV give them a twang, but 1t GER
tainly does not seem to have maze
them unpopular among men,.

QUICK DEATH COMES
TO ASYLUM INMATES.
Supposed That Stings of Insects
Garry Deadly Germs to In
sane of Spain

LONDON, Sept. 4.-The following
dispatch from Valladolid, Spain, IS
published here: '.-'
"A mysterious disease which ad-
vances with the most frightful rapid
ity has broken out in an asylum for
the insane here. Death in some cases
ensues within a few minutes Of the
first symptoms appearing. Five of the
patients have died in the last two days,
While three others who have been at
tackled have been placed under obser-
vation The postmortem examination
failed altogether to reveal the cause OF
DEATH The only external sign Is req
spot resembling that caused by a sung
on the face or neck, and it is believed
that the outbreak is caused by the
bite of an infected insect
This telegram was shown to an EN-
inent Harley street physician. This
gentleman has practiced for years both
in Italy and Spain and is an author
ity on all. phases of blood poisoning.
In view of the scantiness of the de-
scription of the disease, the physician
could not speak definitely as to its
cause or character; but his views on
somewhat similar kinds OF dlSease
which have come under his notice are
interesting:
"TAhave known men and women in
italy" he said, Ito leave their homes
in the forenoon in perfect health, and'
following bites by poisonous insects
or, rather, by insects carrying IN their
bodies germs of contagious disease,
they have reached my surgery in the
afternoon in a dangerous state OF
fever l have also known not few
to die from these bites, though not
with the same rapidity as is suggested
in the case at Valladolid.
"It must be remembered that at this
period of the year that Spanish city
is very hot, and the drainage system is
sill of a primitive order. l can easily
imagine a cloud of insects fresh from
IN infected area flying to the asylum
and passing through it's open windows
ana fastening upon their victims ana
1T once inoculating them with the
# ul virus they carry.
"The average lunatic in Spain is to
say the least, not a robust patient
and with a predisposition to disease
the poison would soon set UP the IN
named spots on the body and lmpel a
high temperature. -.
asnects one would like to ascertain,
such as the ages and general condition
of the victims and patients, the prog
ress of the fever, and whether 1t was
associated with extreme thirst ana
other symptoms.
"Of course, it is just possible that
fuller investigation may disclose the
case TO be some other form of poison
ing. The insect in Spain, however, is
a well known enemy of society at tnlS
time of year. and when charged Win
poison it can be as deadly as a bullet

HESSlAN ADVISES
SHOOTING OF AUT0ISTS
Big Row Started by Action of Au-
tomobiIe Club

BERLIN, Sept. 4.-Antagonism be-
tween the motoring and non-motoring
public sometimes assumes very sharp
forms in this country. The Hessian
Automobile club recently issued a
"decalogue for cart drivers" calling
upon them in somewhat peremptory
terms to pay prompt attention to the
signals of motor horns. This document
was criticised in a Darmstadt paper by
a peasant reichstag member, Herr
Kohler, who concluded violent TRADE
against motorists with the following
words:
81 should like to recommend the fol-
lowing as an eleventh commandment
for all cartmen: Go and get yourser
a license for firearms and then thor
oughly serviceable revolver, so that you
can protect yourself when you are
fallen upon by the modern vermin
which renders the country roads unsafe
and trifles with human life"
The automobile club has now retail
lated by prosecuting Herr Kohler for
melting to the committal of crime.

MINING MEN APPOINT
SEVERAL COMMITTEES
Congress This Year Promises to
Be Greatest in 0rganiza-
tons History

DENVER, Colo, Sept. 4.-Unusual
interest centers in the American Min
ing congress this year, arising princi-
pally from its effective and successful
fight for the creation of a bureau Of
mines, which was formally established
on July l. This demonstration of abil-
ity to cope with problems affecting the
mining industry has brought to the or
ganizatio increased strength and in
fluence and the more liberal support of
mining men. The Los Angeles session
of the mining congress will probably
be in many respects better than any
so far held.
The work of the mining congress in
wolves much more than the discus
sions at its annual sessions. An impor-
tant part of its working machinery is
its dozen or more committees, each OF
which Is appointed for the investiga-
ton of some particular problem. This
work is done during the time interven-
ing between sessions.
During the past twelve months COM
mittees of the mining congress have
been giving their attention to some
questions of vital Importance to the
mining industry. These committees VIII
report to the Los Angeles meeting
and their reports will be submitted TO
the convention for its discussion and
ratification.
COMMITTEES TO REPORT
These committees, with the name of
the chairman of each, are:
General revision of mineral land
laws, E. B. Kirby, st. Louis, Mo-,
chairman.
smelter rates, Harry L.Day, Wal
lace, Idaho, chairman.
Federal legislation, John Hays Ham
mond, New York, chairman.
Mining fraud legislation, Thomas E.
Kepner, Reno, New" chairman,
Alaskan mining laws, Harry R. Har-
riman, Seattle, WASH, chairman.
Uniform mining laws, Harry Renton
ingalls,, New York, chairman.
Coal tax insurance and workmen's
compensation, John H. Jones, Pitts
burg Pa, chairman.
Standardization of electrical equip
ment-In coal mines, Samuel A. Tay-
lor. Pittsburg, Pa, chairman; in metal
mines, Gen. irving Hale, Denver, Colo,
chairman.
Trade relations with silver using
countries, j. Frank Watson, Portland
Ore, chairman.
National forest reserves, Col. A. G.
Brownlee, Denver. Colo, chairman.
The mooted conservation question
promises to be one of the most inter-
esting subjects to come before the con-
vention and one which will result in
hot debate. Mining men, particularly
in the western states, are becoming
aroused over the possibility of the adop-
ton by the national congress of the
legislation proposed in the Nelson con-
servation measures (senate bills NOS.
54S4 and 5492 to 1885, inclusive), all OF
which have an important bearing on
western mining conditions. -
These bills are meeting with little
anproyal and it is expected that at the
Los Angeles session the mining con-
gress will determine upon a plan or
actively opposing the passage OF the
legislation during the next session or
congress, or of working Tor amend
noer9ts which will be more favorable to
mining development.

CUT MAY BE A BLUFF

BAKERSFIELD, Sept. 4.-The cut in
the price of oil, the probable action of
the agency and the question Of whether
the agency has made an agreement with
tho Associated for the sale of oil or
otherwise, were the chief subjects Of
conversation among the oil men Satur-
day, but no new light was shed on the
situation. The general belief remained
unchanged that the Associated's offer
was either bluff or was made for the
deliberate purpose of calling a halt In
production. The latter theory hinged on
the theory that agreement has been
reached whereby the shortage of the
Associated and surplus Of the agency in
oil production will be equaIzed.
The men who arc closest TO the
agency officials and generally enjoy adj
vance information concerning whatever
is going on in the agency affairs, were
uniformly cheerful, and this fact tends
to reassure the less Informed agency
members that things will como out all
right in the end.
