BLACK WARRIOR BEGINS
SHIPMENTS TO DOMINION

GLOBE, July 9.-The Black Warrior
mine, next to the Old Dominion, this
districts heaviest producer began
shipping it's ores to the latter COM
pany's smelling plant at Globe July 1.
Those concerned in the welfare of this
city are pleased at this diversion of
the ore from its former destination at
Ell Paso, because of their belief that
the Warriors example will be followed
by all other high grade ore mines of
this district, as they reach the produc-
ing stage.
Stopping at the Warrior is still in
progress in the western drifts of the
200 and 300-foot levels. The result of
the underground work in the Warrior
continues favorable and it's ore, of
which it ships 100 tons per day, main
tains an average of between 9.5 and 10
per cent copper.
The churn drill on the Mobile claim
known as hole d, about 100 feet south
east of the underground workings of
the mine, is 295 feet in depth. 1t has
passed through the Gaping of impure
schist and has just entered the gray
schist which generally contains miner
aliZaton The main object of sinking
this hole Is to cut the Montgomery
vein, in which the high grade ore of
the underground workings has been
encountered. The force at present be-
ing employed at the mine numbers
eighty men,

EASTERN MEN ACQUIRE
ADELINE OF MARICOPA
Company with Eighty Acres and
Fifteen Producing Wells
Transfers interests

BAKERSFIELD, July 9-The big
in many weeks past was contaminated
when the properties of the Adeline OIL
company and the Adellne Extension
OIL company at Maricopa were sold to
q company of New York and Provi-
dence, r.. l., capitalists, represented by
Frederick X. Potter of New York,
member of the well known brokerage
firm of Potter & Reed. The purchase
price has not been made public, but
it is understood to be in the neighbor-
hood of 100000. The fifteen producing
wells of the two companies, eighty
acres of land, and the widespread rep
utation of the Adeline road oil are ac-
quired by the new owners, who Will
take possession early in the fall. the
first payment has been made.
The Adeline Oil company owns the
northeast quarter of the southeast
quarter of section 2, 11-24, and the
AdeIine Extension, the southeast quar-
ter of the southeast quarter of the
same section. There are eleven pro-
ducing wells on the Adeline property
and four on the Adeline Extension.
The properties are finely equipped.
There are two boiler plants, one COM
posed of a battery of three 70-horse
power boilers and an electric plant
which supplies the lighting for the
properties, besides complete shipping
and production facilities. The COM
panies have been organized and doing
business for the past six years and are
owned principally in Bakersfield. G.
known firm of Barlow & HILL Bakers
known firm of Barlow y Hill, Bakers
field, are largely Interested in the
properties, as is c. l.. Claflin, the
bakersfield attorney; o. S. Hickey,
formerly residing in the southern part
of the state, and c. N. Sorenson of
Minneapolis, MINI.
The Adeline road oil, which is rec
ogniZed throughout the state of Cali
fornia and the eastern states as the
best road-making material on the mar
ket, is the product of the Adeline Oil
company. During the past five years,
due to the conservative and painstak-
ing business management of Barlow
& Hill, a wonderful demand for the
product has been created and a large
business has been built up supplying
communities behind the good roads
movement.
The identity of the purchasers is not
known. Frederick K. Potter of New
York conducted the deal, but it is
understood in the interests of New
York and Providence capitalists. Ne
gotiations have been penang for the
past sixty days.

LIVE OAK STANDS UP

GLOBE, July 9.-The aspect of the
Live Oak is as roseate as it has been
continuously during the past few
months. It's prospecting reveals con-
stantly increasing ore bodies and none
of the ore falls short of commercial
value.
The general belief in it's extensive
ore area is being confirmed more COM
pletely with each drill hole sunk. Drill
hole No. has been finished at depth
of 500 feet Drill hole No. Z encoun-
tered ore 295 feet below the surface
and is now $40 feet deep. Drill No. 8
will be moved to a point known as
[. 28 which will be 300 feet west and
100 feet south from the shaft. No. Z
soon will be moved to X 2S, about 200
feet west of the site of the former.
The result of the drilling operations at
this mine has proven an area 1900 feet
from east to west and 800 feet wide
from north to south, to contain COM
mercial ore, varying from 100 feet to
greater depth in thickness.
A safe estimate, based upon the drill
ing thus far accomplished, would be
in the neighborhood of 100000 tons of
ore developed.

MAY CARRY HEAVY LOADS
TO MINES IN MOUNTAINS
Advocate of loves Machine Be-
Iieves Time Approaches for
Great Achievement

The experiment about to be tried with
the airship In transporting machinery
and supplies into the inaccessible
mountain regions of Mexico, a project
backed by Douglas men, brings out the
fact that Prof. Lowe of Pasadena has
demonstrated with his latest Planet
airship that heavy loads can be car
ried through the air
B. W. Child, 507 North Madison ave
nue., Pasadena, speaking of the Planet
device yesterday, said:
with the perfected motor there is
not a point but which has been DEM
onstrated. With encouragement it
seems certain that Southern California
could gain all that Is claimed of this
style of aerial navigation, and more"
In pamphlet entitled --latest De-
velopment in Aerial Navigation" re-
Gently published by Aerial Publishing
company, 522 Central building, Los An
geles, 1t speaks of this navigation as
applied to mines as follows:
ITO those whose occupations take
them to great heights in inaccessible
mountains the Planet airship will be
q Godsend. 1t will also completely
revolutionize many mountain INDUS
tries, especially rendering profitable
many mines which are now operated
at tremendous expense.
Supplies are now taken into these
mines on the backs of mules, burros
and men at cost that only the rich
est mines can bear, but with Lowe
airship freighter, capable of carrying
ten, fifteen, twenty or more tons of
machinery, and all the needful sup
plies, mine that has hitherto been
capitalized for million can well af-
ford to pay dividends on ten or more
millions, owing to the reduced cost OF
operation.
MANY mines that have hitherto been
operated at a loss will speedily be-
come dividend payers, and good mines
that have had to be abandoned be-
cause of their inaccessibility will again
be worked at profit, while the profits
on good paying mines will be tremen-
dously enlarged"

LOCAL OIL SECURITIES
SOUND, SAYS SHERIDAN
Chicago Banker Studies Situation
in Fields and Will Recommend
Investments Therein

w. NJ. Sheridan, president of the
banking and brokerage house Of w.
M. Sheridan g. Co., with principal Of
fices in Chicago, who has been stud
iously investigating the situation in the
California oil fields for the past four
weeks, says he has weighed the mat
ter from every possible point of view
and is convinced that investment in
California oil securities is safe, perma-
nent and extremely profitable. Mr..
Sheridan says he will advise eastern
investors to give more attention to the
great oil industry of California.
In discussing the matter yesterday,
Mr.. Sheridan said he had never en-
barked on a tour of investigation
which proved so interesting as inquiry
into the oil fields of California; that
he had hoped and expected to be able
to commend one particular field above
all others, but was forced to admit that
all of the fields had their especial ad-
vantages, which on the whole caused
one to be about as good as the other.
All things considered, he said, in
vestment in any of the fields was ap-
parently a certainty and the chances
for large profit most favorable.
BECOMES INTERESTED
While LOOKING around, Mr.. Sheridan
became personally interested in sew
eral propositions, especially in the Mid
way and Kern river fields. One ground
floor enterprise in which Mr.. Sheridan
secured a large interest is known as
the Kern Westside Oil company, and
as indicated by its name. is located on
the west side of the Kern river fields.
The company has about 200 acres and
is just beginning to drill well No. 1.
Engineer e. A. Wiltsee and Superin-
tendent John Reynolds both estimate
that the well will come in within sixty
to ninety days and, considering it's To-
cation, they figure on seventy to 100
barrels a day.
Mr. Sheridan will start east within
few days and says that upon his
return to Chicago he will publish a
complete report of his findings, and
that his report will also contain adj
vice to investors to give serious con-
sideration to California oil securities.
He says that he will truthfully say,
upon his return, that he found condi-
lions in the oil fields much more sat
isfactory than he had expected to find
them

SAN FRANCISCO. July Following were
BIG END OF TRUST

The Rio del Monte property of the
United States Smelling, Refining &
Mining company is at the present time
the big end of the United Smelling
proposition. Up to within a few
months the Mammoth company in CAL
ifornia was the big end, but present
low prices for copper have permitted
the Rio del Monte to take first place
among the company's properties.
Assistant Managing Director Fred
erick Lyon of the company says that
ten of the ninety-six shafts on the
Rio del Monte mine in Mexico are
being operated, while three more are
being placed in condition to produce,
this being necessary owing to the in
creased capacity of one mill by so and
70 per cent. while the second mill will
undergo the same process of enlarge
ment when the first is completed.

MRS. DR|GGS SENTENCED
TO 5 YEARS IN PRISON
Judge Grants Stay Pending APP
peal from Verdict of the
Trial Jury

Protesting innocence to the last, Mrs.
Gertrude briggs, twice convicted on
the charge of forging the name of John
Charnock to a lease to 1877 acres of
valuable land, was yesterday sentenced
to five years in the prison at San
Quentin.
81 am innocent, judge" she declared.
eff there ever was a woman convicted
who was innocent, am that woman.
Here is my statement. L would like
to have you read it,"
The statement was passed to the
judge, but he, opening it and observ-
ing her written reply to the question
of her guilt to be found guilty by the
jury" he denied the request.
"This defendant comes into court
asking probation and denying her guilt
Such a position is untenable," said the
judge.
you are either guilty or not guilty."
he continued. 1.-The jury, by its YER
dict, found you guilty, so at this stage
there is imposed on the court the duty
of dealing with you from that stand
point.
IF you are guilty as charged, you
are guilty of a very fragrant offense,
a forgery of enormity."
During the announcement of the
sentence Mrs briggs and her daughter,
Mrs. Florence Thorbus, both wept
silently. No demonstration or cutlery
accompanied the sentence. Prior to
the beginning of proceedings permits
sion had been granted the prisoner to
remain seated, contrary to the usual
custom of standing.
A stayyof execution of the sentence
was granted pending an appeal to the
district court of appeals. In the mean
time Mrs. briggs will occupy cell in
the county Jail

DECIDES AGAINST BARRON

MEXICO CITY, July "a judicial
decision involving 81, 529,542 gold has
been handed down in the second civil
court of Mexico. The decision is in
favor of the Mexican Mine Develop
ment company, which was given judg-
ment against George ID. Barron, its
president, who was commanded to pay
within eight days the award with in
terest at per cent from December II,
1903, as well as court costs.
The case has been in the court of
the republic since 1900. The Mexican
Mine Development company authorized
the purchase of certain mines, and
Barron is said to have secured titles
in his own name. Later a meeting of
the company was called by President
Barron and it was dissolved, the titles
remaining in the name of Barron. Aft
erwards the stockholders claimed that
the dissolution had been illegal and
suit for recovery of the property was
begun,

AMERICAN PETROLEUM
NO. 9 INCREASES FLOW
TO 10000 BARRELS DAY

Coalinga has another big gusher.
Well No. of the American Petrole-
UNI company on section 30, 2O-15, is
flowing at the rate of 10000 barrels
a day. This estimate is conservative,
being the figure agreed upon by COM
pany officials.
The well was brought in several
weeks ago and Immediately began flow
ing $500 barrels day, which rate 1t
kept up for more than week. The
usual sand trouble soon decreased the
flow, but for several days past the
we'll has been picking up and the daily
output has been steadily increasing.
Thursday it got beyong control and
Immediately started to flow at a great
rate. Field Superintendent Tom
Crumpton has a large force endeavor-
ing to get the well under control.
DISTINCTIONS are being placed over the
hole, but the huge pressure and great
flow of oil makes the work difficult.

ORD-PESHlNE TRACT,
CASMALIA DISTRICT,
APPEALS TO OIL MEN

SANTA MARIA, July 9.-The Ord
Peshine tract in the Casmalia district
is being brought to the attention of oil
prospectors
This tract comprises 1869 acres, and
while as yet not within the bounds of
proved territory, desultory operations
have been carried on nearby for
number of years with some success.
The Southern Pacific has a well adj
joining the northern end of the Peshine
land which 1t is rumored is very
substantial producer, but the facts of
the case are difficult to ascertain. 1t
is, however, a we'll established belief
that oil will be the slogan in the west
erly district to the same extent that 1t
has been a few miles east of it for
wears.

PALMER ANNEX sPups IN

SANTA MARIA. July 9.-The Palm
er Annex Oil company, drilling about
1000 feet north of the Palmer No
well on the Blochman lease. has spud-
ded in it's first well.
The holdings of the Annex consist
of the Post tract and the west half of
the Old Mission tract, which is all
proved territory, with the possible ex-
ception of the north half of the Post.
The company paid an enormous price
for the Old Mission holdings and feels
that owing to it's proximity to the
Palmer producers they were justified
in doing this.

ASSOCIATED PIPE LINE
WILL TAKE OIL AUG.

McKITTRICK, July 6-The Associ-
ated's pipe line between this field and
Coalinga, where it connects with the
main line to Porta Costa, will be TAX
ing oil by August and the line will
be in full operation within a very short
time from that date, the pumping sta
tions being far enough along now In
their construction to admit of safe
prediction.
owing to the new system of pump
ing and the light oil which will be
handled, no one is able to hazard
guess as to the quantity the line will
be found capable of carrying. The
Associateds line, as is well known,
is rifed, and a rified pipe has never
vet been subjected to thorough test
with high gravity oils. The hope is
held in some quarters that 1t will prove
especially superior to the old-fashioned
smooth bore.
