INVESTIGATION INTO
AFFAIRS OF MEPHISTO

FRESNO, Oct. 4.--FOllOwing declara-
tions made recently to the effect that
the MephistO Oil company, in the DEVILS
Den district, was not adjoining a 1000
barrel well and that the well itself
was never a commercial producer, the
affairs of the company have become
more or less tangled, Notwithstanding
the fact that j. Bliss Dudley, president
of the company, is at present In CoalInga

company, have rendered their resigna-

REGAL OIL COMPANY
DECLARES 44C DIVIDEND
Midway Outfit That Owns Big
Gusher Will Pay Back
to Stockholders

The Regal Oil company, operating in
the Midway field, has just declared its
first dividend, amounting to A cents
a share, there being only fifteen stock
holders in the company, which is cap
italized at 100000.
The Regal Oil company was incor-
porated in September, 1905 under the
laws of California, and operated in
section IA, 80, 2S in the Midway Flats
when it was in the EARLIEST stage of
development. On January 1 last
New Years present was made this
company by the bringing in of we'll
variously estimated at from 100 to
500 barrels of oil day. This flow of
oil did not appeal to the owners of
the land nor their lessees, the Union
OIL company, as the ultimate produc-
ton that could be obtained from this
territory, and several months more
were spent in deepening the well.
On May 21 a great gusher was
brought in. 1t flowedA 1000 barerls of
oil a day. Since that time the well
has kept up a steady production of
oil of about "a gravity. 1t has been
necessary to keep the well capped
and minimum quantity of oil per-
mitted to flow into reservoirs and steel
tanks. Vhe deliveries of oil during
July, August and September have been
large, and the storage remaining
amounts to about $4,000 barrels.
When shipping facilities become nor
NAL and the entire output can be sent
through to the market the returns
from this well should be unusually
large.
The Regal Oil company has declared
a dividend, payable October 5, of A
cents a share. Inasmuch as this is
o close corporation of only fifteen
stockholders, with the small capital
ization of 100000, the payment of its
first dividend means considerable to
the individuals interested in it.
The president of the company is c.
G.. Jepsen of the Beacon Auto-Body
company. C. E. Currier is vice presi-
dent and G. c. Dennis, broker, is sec
retary and treasurer. The office of
the Regal Oil company is at 226-227

the property passed to other hands. AT
intervals it has been worked, but not
successfully. It is now owned by an
eastern company, and by many is still
believed to be good. A few years ago
the company went bang up against
million of dollars.
Persons living thereabout familiar
with the late management tell wonder
full stories of what was done and what
was not done when the property was
last worked.
The present surface improvements
include smelter and MILL both of mod

shaft is said to be but $50 feet. There
are half a dozen such shafts on the
property, several within few yards Of
each other.

DOUGLAS BELIEVES IT
WILL Get CONVENTION
Phoenix, the Only Competitor,
viii Probably Yield to
the SmeIter Town =

Arizona will get the next session of
the American Mining congress, says a
Douglas exchange.
Douglas has the pole in the race for
the honor of entertaining this great
convention.
Will Douglas win?
The answer must come from the
people of Douglas and from the people
of Arizona, who have pledged their
support to this city.
Secretary Grindell of the Douglas
chamber of commerce and mines de-
clares that he does not believe there
is any good, sor:ad reason why Douglas
should not have the congress in 191l
The chamber of commerce and mines
has carried on an aggressive fight for
it, and has enlisted the strongest sup
port possible. Every city and town Of
prominence in Arizona has been ap-
preached on the subject, and the re-
sponses have been more than gratlfy-
ing. In fact, the promises of support
received from commercial bodies ana
individuals has been so encouraging
that prior to the Los Angeles conven-
ton the Douglas organization started
the ball rolling by arranging for the
guarantee of the funds necessary 1or
the entertainment of the congress
The Endorsement of many cities was
officially given through their COM
mercial bodies. In Phoenix, the only
rival for the honor now, manys proml-
nent business men declared that tney
favored holding the session next year
at Douglas. At Tucson, Globe, Pres
colt and other cities and towns
throughout the territory Douglas was
promised support in the fight by bus1-
ness men and mining men.
With the practical assurance that the
majority of the business and mining
men of Arizona, either individually or
through regularly organized CONNER
cial bodies, there does not seem to pc
any reason to doubt that Douglas Will
get the convention.
Lest we forget:
The claims of a city, the ability of
a city to make good on those claims
the stanch and unremitting advocacy
Of those claims by the best FRIENDS q
city can have, all these do not always
count the most in determining the
location of a convention OF the magnl-
tude of the American Mining congress
There is politics in the convention
game as there is in the government
game. Sometimes the weight of special
interests counts for more than all the
claims and guarantees that city can
throw into the balance.
THE final decision on the location OF
the congress for next year rests Win
the board of directors. There is ohly
one other city in Arizona making pre-
tensions toward claiming the honor
sought by Douglas. That city mas the
powerful backing of certain speclaI IN
terests, although manv of the most
prominent business men Of that city
have given Douglas assurance that
they preferred to see the convention If,
held in Douglas, and would support the
claims of Douglas to the extent of their
ability to influence the decision OF the
arbiters of the location of the organ
ization. 4ho
Douglas chamber, of commerce and
mines particularly to convince the
directorate of the American Mining
congress that the favor Of one trans,
portation system should not be allowed
to outweigh the sentiment OF the
people of Arizona.

PINCHOT CONSERVATION
PLEAsEs CONGRESS HEAD
CaIIbreath Says with Certain
Notifications Policy Will
Benefit Mining Men

That the American Mining congress
was in accord with Mr.. Pinchot and
the conservation of public lands, with
certa4l changes to benefit oil and
metal miners, was the substance of a
statement made by James F. Call
breath, jr., secretary of the congress,
upon the eve of his departure for Den
yer yesterday.
The convention just closeO was the
most successful ever held by the con-
gress, not only in point of numbers
but the amount and Importance of the
business transacted as well.
Mr.. Callbreath said he was pleased
that the attitude of the oil men of the
state was favorable to the American
Mining congress and that all branches
of the mining industry could work bet
ter together than apart. 1--WE need
the oil men," said Mr.. Callbreath, and
I know they need us. We should work
is harmony for our mutual benefit.
"All mining men interested in the
industry in all it's branches should
hold together" said Mr.. Callbreath.
One of the most important things
done by the congress this year was
to straighten out by means of varied
argument the true cause of conserva-
tion. Previous to the convention
there was a false imp ession as to the
purpose of conservation and many
thought that 1t was going to work a
hardship upon the miner in general.
But by resolutions the congress
showed that its view of conservation
was intelligent and that the average
mining man was in favor OF 1t with
the provisions which allowed him to
prospect upon the forest reserve and
to take out patent on lands located
on the withdrawn lands of the San
Joaquin valley oil fields.
OBJECT OF CONSERVATION
The object of conservation as the
American Mining congress wishes
it to be understood is that true
conservation of the natural re-
sources must not be confounded with
ownership, whether private or public.
A false impression has gone abroad
in this respect and the resolutions
adopted by the congress brought out
the fact that ownership and conserva-
ton were two separate things. The
congress has favored true conserva-
tion from the beginning and intends
to work for a complete accomplish
ment of the policies of Mr.. Pinchot,
with certain notifications, favorable
to the mining man, which were out
lined in the resolutions passed at the
convention just closed.
Mr.. Callbreath said that while the
bureau of mines had only recently
been established the government had
been appropriating sums the past two
and one-half years for carrying on the
work which finally resulted in the
bureau of mines. He said that sum
of S150.OOO was appropriated about two
and one-half years ago for relief in
coal mines, particularly in the regula-
ton of mine equipment and the preven-
tion of mine accidents. A year ago
another sum of $15O,OOO was appro-
priated by the federal government for
the same purpose.

EATON PROPERTY AT
PARKER BEGINS WORK

PARKER, Ariz., Oct. 4.-Active de-
velopment work on the Eaton prop
erty was begun this week. The Eaton
group consists Of seventeen claims,
and is located in Black Metal basin,
two miles northeast of Copper basin.
About twenty shafts and tunnels on
this property have exposed numerous
ore bodies carrying good values in
copper, gold, silver and lead. Quite
an important strike was made this
week when body of lead carbonates
was uncovered.
AS yet sufficient work has not been
done to determine the extent of the
ore body but some excellent speci-
mems of lead carbonates have been en-
countered.
Many tons Of surface ores were
taken from this property in the early
days and shipped to Swansea, Wales,
fol treatment.
Manager Jacoby says considerable
work will be started this year.

WORKS FORTY MEN

TOMBSTONE, Oct. 4.-Report comes
from the Quijotoa country that the
GUNNER machine people are working
from thirty-five to forty men and that
the machine would be in readiness to
start operations this week, The out
look for a successful run is believed
to be fully as good as anything found
in the Altar or Beludo country.
The ground is Of such character
that it can almost be quarried into
the machine, and WILL it is reported,
average from so cents to 81 a cubic
yard, and as the machine is capable
of running through 600 tons of dirt in
ten hours, it promises to be a bonanza
OF the best kind.
One machine in successful operation
will undoubtedly lead to the installing
of many others.
