Fire was started in the furnace at
the new Hartman depot this morning
pnd a carload of coal has been dump
ed in the depot bin. The heating of
the building is desired for the com

ing Of the walls.
The interior work in the office Is
now nearly completed and the furnl-
ture is expected within a few days
None of the fixtures from the old de-
pot will be moved into the new build.
Ing and a general overhauling of old
papers will be made before the office
force departs from the present quar-

perS as are absolutely necessary.
While the task OF moving will be no
light one, all of the clerks and other
employees are anXious:y waiting for
the change to be made as It VIII mean

The location III the new depot is also

So likely that the change OF offices
will take place about the first OF the
year, but the exact date has not yet

P|OCHE MERGER
is ASSURED

During the past few days there have
been a number Of sessions held IN
Louisville by prominent Pioche min
ing interests. the purpose of which
was to bring about a consolidation
of several properties in the camp men
toned. Among those attending this
series of meetings was Ernest K.
Woolley, president Of the Nevada
Utah company. There also were there
Ernest l. Godbe. Anthony II. Godbe
and colonel James L. Hackett, all Of
ficials of the Consolidated Phoebe and
Prince Consolidated companies.
1t was reported from very good au-
thority on Thursday that these inter
ests have reached a definite agree
meDt. and that the scheme of consoli-
dation soon will be diyulged TO the
shareholders of the Nevada Utah, Con
solidated Phoebe and Prince Consoli-
dated companies for their approval or
rejection. Those who have been at
tending these meetings have depart
ed for New York to close up the fl
nal details of the deal,
SO far, there has been nothing dis.
closed tending to indicate the basis Of
this merger. 1t is supposed, however,
that new holding company will be
organized, and the mines mentioned,
with the probability that some of the
other Ploche groups of Il prospective
value will be included, placed under
one roof over whose destinieS Mr..
Woolley will, in all probability, pre-
side as president. The Nevada Utah
company is capitalized for 1,500,0 900
shares of stock, l,4O1 400 sharesN of
which are Issued. Mr. Woolley and as
sociates are credited with the owner
ship OF the control The Consolidated
Phoebe company is capitalized for
100000 shares, of which 400, 900 are
issued, the Nevada Utah company and
the Godbe-Hackett and associate In
terests each owning exactly one-half
Of the issued stock The Prince Con-
solidated company has 1000, 600
shares of stock, 100000 shares of
which are outstanding.
After much sparring. backing and
filling. it looks as if the old Phoebe
district Is to enter into It's own again.
There are few camps with history
so punctuated with disasters as Pi-
oche, fate seemingly taking the great
est delight in mocking the undoubt-
VI Nie uON uc-
veloped in the mines above mention
ed bye placing every conceivable DIFF
ficulty In the way of their being real
lied on. The camp for years has need
ed capital to place the mines in
shape for production Capital refus-
ed to come until the camp was con-
nected with the world by a railroad.
To cap It all, the floods of the first
OF this year put the railroad line out
of business for many months.
There Is every reason to believe
that the big interests which have sc.
cured hold on the mines of the
district will now proceed to the cree
tion of concentrating plants and
smelter, and that Phoebe has passed
through the last stage of its hard
luck era.
