CALUMET & ARIzoNA

In the annual report of the Calumet S5 Arizona Mining company, for the year 1909, President Chas. Briggs says:
 The average price received for our copper during the past year was 13.O47 cents per pound. This was from sale made of copper produced in the period from October 1st, 1908, to Sep tember, 30, 1909.
 The average number of men em- ployed for the year was 1274. Of this number SO5 were employed at the mine and 469 at the shelter.
 Work has been continued on our properties at Copper Giant in the Mammoth or Copper Creek district and in the Courtland district without satisfactory results. No additional ground will be purchased in either district, as no values have been dis covered except upon claims already owned outright by this company.
 From the ores developed on these properties it is hoped that the com pany will be reimbursed for the ex- penditures made. Mining will be commenced on our Courtland prop critics early i'll 1910 and it is expected that 100 tons daily will be shipped from there to our shelter.
 The continued development of good oxide ores iu our Irish Mag claim, and the improvement in the values of our sulphide ores developed on the l35O-foot level of the Oliver shaft, where the ore bodies are strong and carry better copper values than in the levels above, make future pros poets very encouraging.
 As soon as these ore bodies are cut on the 145O-foot level it will be neces- sary to sink both shafts several hun dred feet deeper to explore the prop erty at greater depths.
 The balance sheet shows surplus of quick assets oyer current liabilities of s, ,155, ,494, which compares with B, ,423, ,269 as of date December 3l, 1908.
 In the 1909 balance sheet the cop per is inventoried at 12 1-2 cents per pound, silver at 50 cents per ounce aud gold at S2O per ounce. It should be borne in mind in connection with any examination of the income ac- count, that while the surplus shows a reduction of S27O,OOO, there was ex- pended on explor ations of properties under option S375, ,OOO and S139, 500 was paid in completing payments for properties held under option and for which the company expects to be re- imbursed
 The Courtland properties are now producing 100 tons of per cent ore a day. As matter of fact, the mining profits for the year amounted to a little over Sl 100000 or S6 per share but property and exploration pay ments necessitated the withdrawal of a small amount of the treasury sur plus.
 It might appear from a casual analysis of the report that the com pany had not last year earned the dividend paid by the amount of <hrinkage in assets, but the items above referred to are proper charges 1 and should be deducted from the sur plus fund.
 During the year 1909, the company ! did 6SS2 feet more of development work than during 1908, the same last year to 27,5j2 feet.

Copper Queen Co. Denied ReparaiiOn

A Washington dispatch of the 18th says:
 An opinion was handed down last week by the interstate commerce commission in the long series of cases instituted by the Copper Queen Min ing company or Bisbee, Arizona against the Baltimore & Ohio rail- road and many interstate carriers, denying reparation to the complain ant on shipments of coke from the Pennsylvania fields to Globe.
 The importance of the case lay in the allegation that through rates charged on coke were excessive.
 The commission held that the com plainant could not te permitted to attack the separate divisions of tue joint through rate.
 It held also that the demand for reparation was not based upon any real damage or injury to the shipper. Tombstone Prospector.

 Zinc is generally determined quan- titatively in the laboratory by titra- tion with potassium ferrocyanide, using uranium nitrate asan indicator.
 Fifty years ago the copperblast furnace consisted of a small shaft, lined with irebrick or stone, and having at its lower extremity a cru cible for the collection and separa- tion Of matte and slag.
 Roasting reactions are confined mainly to the surface of the layer of pulverized ore which lies upon the hearth, and the deeper sulphide par ticles experience but little oxidation as long as they are buried, unless left for q long time.
 In estimating the first cost of a stamp mill, the cost of the battery may be placed at $500 per stamp, not including cost of transportation. The foundations will cost S65 per stamp. Roughly. SI,O0O per stamp will pay for a fully equipped mill, ready to start.
 It has been proved experimentally that, as rule, the length of the charge of explosive to be placed in the blasting hole, should not exceed eight to twelve times the diameter, for single holes. That is, l-inch hole should never have more than twelve inchs of explosive placed in it.
 In English practice, cable-tra ction ropes are commonly made with six strands of seven to fifteen wires, while in the United States, strands of nineteen wires are generally pre- ferred as being more flexible. Much of our hOistIng rope is made on the latter plan.
 In the average mill the question of slime treatment generally offers room for improvement. In considering the question there are two general ideas to be considered-the prevention of slime as far as possible and the treat ment of such as are unavoidably made.
 The dynamite which has been un- der water at the bottom of the TOO foot well, should not explode on being exposed 10 the air. In fact, it will probably be found difficult to explode it, even with Q strong cap, and if it can be exploded at all, it's force will be found greatly diminished.
