ENTERTAIN RIFLEMEN.

PHOENIX, Aug. 15:-When the di- rectors of the board of trade gather ed at luncheon today at the Ford hotel W. B. Twitchell. representing the Phoenix Gun club, requested that the board of trade cooperate with the gun club members in enter taining the many visitors who will be here for the big gun club tourna- ment in September.
 As a result of Twitchelrs request it was decided by the board to take the visitors on an automobile ride over the city and valley on the last day of the tournament. The owners of automobiles in the city are re- quested by the members of the board to donate their cars for a couple of hours on that day in order that the visitors who will be representative men from all over the territory. may have an opportunity to see at frs hand tn opportunities offered by thS Salt River Valley.
 Secretary Welch reported that the interest of nonresident members of the board had been in a measure awakened and that subscriptions amounting to s45O had been received from property owners not residing in the valley. The campaign will be extended and all who are receiving benefits from the board of trade work will be invited to contribute.

COPPER QUEEN MINING DEAL IN PIMA COUNTY
This is Current Report Con- Cerning Recent Visit eff Walter Douglas to TuC- son,

TUCSON. August I3:-Walter Douglas, F. Grehn and E. Sawyer of Bisbee who left Tucson early yester- day morning, closed a deal for the Gieseman, Leatherwood and Billy Reed mining properties in the Santa Catalinas is current rumor It is known that they have been on a deal for these properties for some time. The Gieseman. Leatherwood and Billy Reed properties compose a valuable group of mining properties about forty miles from Tucson. It is known that Douglas and other representatives of the Copper Queen company have had a deal pending for these mines, and it is understood that yesterday was fixed as the date for the closing of the deal. However the departure of Douglas and his associates at an early hour yesterday morning gives rise to the belief that the deal was consumated on the previous day.
 If the Copper Queen company has really taken an option on the proper ties near here or closed a deal for their transfer, Tucson need have no more uneasiness about the Fl Paso and Southwestern railroad coming to Tucson The road owned by the same people who operate the Copper Qneen mines, would certainly select a route even if the Winkleman properties should draw an extension to the north there would also be expected another one to the west. tapping the new ac quisition. and then Tucson.
 It develoDes that instead of coming to Tucson by train. as was generally supposed Mir. Douglas arrived hers in an automobile. This fact lends credibility to the story of the mins deal. as it is stated he spent two days investigating the properties.

TERRITORIAL ROAD PLANS

For the terms of the advertise ment of bids for the construction of a part of the territorial highway. which bids are to be opened at Phoe- nix on September 13, is would seem that the board of control is adher- ing to the plan of building down the west side of the valley instead of constructing highway down through the center of the Sulphur Springs Valley, where it would be most use ful to the settlers. and do more to- ward the settlement of the valley than 1t possibly can, according to the plan which was announced by the engineer some month since The ad- vertisements for bids referred to is for link between Douglas and For rest and from thence another link will be run to Bisbee.
 When the plans were first spoken of the account of them was pub lished in this paper and at time ed itorial comment showed the objec- ton to the project Nine-tenths of the traffic up the Sulphur Springs Valley is from Douglas The pro posed highway, if it is used from Douglas will divert this traffic by sending it first to Forrest and to reach the greater part of the valley 1t will have to traverse back over laterals an equal distance greater or less, and the new highway will be of little benefit, except to the west erly side of the valley.
 It is understood that further nortl the Gila Valley has been treated in a similar short sighted way ant it would appear that the board ot control has not taken advantage oi the opportunities which this road building offers for the development oi these valleys.
 As to Douglas the proposed plar practically side tracks this city, SC far as connection with the valley ii iconcerned and the country roads vii be much more travelled, except by au tomobilists out for pleasure. than vii the proposed territorial highway.

RYAN SEES BETTER
 TIMES FOR COPPER
THINKS THE DEMAND HAS IN CREASED AND WILL SOON Ex- CEED THE SUPPLY.

NEW YORK. Aug. 12-John D. Ryan, president of the Amaigamated Copper company, on his return from Europe, while declining to confirm reports of an understanding" ar rived at abroad among the large cop per producers for a curtailment of output. declared that consumption of the metal is increasing and that there Is no cause for worry over the situ- ation.
 It was not expected that Mir. Ky an would make any statement direct ly indicating that a definite agree ment for curtailment had been ar ranged among the producers. He did admit, however, that he had been in conference with the large European producers.
 While abroad I had conferences with the large producers and consum- CTS of copper in England, Germany and France" said Mir. Ryan. land the general opinion expressed at the meeting was that production was in excess of consumption, although con sumption is now on an unprecedented scale. Personally think an improve ment in the metal situation will be shown from now on.
 'In nearly all European countries consumption of copper is increasing at an amazing rate. This is particu- larly true in regard to England, France and Germany. Business and commercial progress in Germany is wonderful. and naturally copper emtal is being put to a great many new uses. The electrifcation of rail- way terminals in England. and. in- deed. many of the suburban lines, is causing a greater consumption of copper in that country.
 Supplies of copper are not so ex- tensiye as they seem. There is not more than 100000 tons of copper on hand, the world over. and this Is not much more than should be con stantly kept on hand with present rate of consumption Tn 1906 and 1907 we did not have enough copper on hand. and. as a consequences. the market price for the metal went to a high figure. Suppose that we had labor troubles or strikes in the copper-producing fields. and the sup ply should be cut of for a time. At the present rate of consump- ton 100000 tons the world over would not last long"
 Mir. Ryan predicted that an i'm iprovement would be shown in the cooper metal situation from now on.

summing up of the local situation When the Board of Trade occupies its new home it is probable that space could be secured for a small but at tractive exhibit and a secretary could be stationed there to attend to the business of the association. answer questions and look after the mining interests of the county in general.
 The duties of such an officer would not be heavy and it is possible that an arrangement could be made with the Board of Trade whereby Harry Weieh. secretary of that organization, would serve. These mining associa- tions have been found very advaa- tageous in other communities. and while Maricopa is not essentially mining county there is enough devel- opment and interest in such matters here to warrant the slight expense involved, while the advertising ben efits to be derived therefrom would be considerable.

LEAVES FOR HOME AFTER IN sPEcTINe THE ARIZONA CEN TRIAL COPPER MINES.

PRESCOTT, Aug. 15.-W. N Ogden of Pittsburg. Pa who left the city Tuesday for his home. to party ot friends at the depot imparted the agreeable information that his trip to this section was one of the most sat isfactory he ever had. and in addition to his interests in the Arizona Cen tral Copper company, he anticipated a very bright future for this field in a general way.
 Mir. Ogden, in singling out what he examined at the Arizona Central camp, was emphatic in stating that as an investor, be approved of the method prevailing in the handling of that enterprise which proved that economy was a strong principal con si -eration on the part of MT Cleveland. the superintendent. While in the camp. be inspected the work ings on the 925 foot level and was very agreeably impressed with the showing at that point, adding also that the existence of strong ore bod ies was incontroyertibly established in recent developments.
 The main shaft on this property will be continued to the 1000 foot point. when the exploitation worh outlined previously will be under taken in drifting and other determine tions.
 Mir. Ogden is very much i'm pressed with the favorable outlook anticipates returning to this field again in a short time.

 per and 30 ounces of silver was In shaft No. a six finch stringer of 20 per cent ore was struck. the next eight feet being in concentrating ore.
 1. There are also two tunnels on these properties ,one being 1050 feet long which was driven to prospect
 the ground and to get a depth of about $50 feet under series of two fractures. About 700 feet from
 the mouth of the tunnel the first
 fractures was encountered. where

 Morse expresses the opinion that the Morita group will develop one .of the largest mines in the district, there being over 10000 tons con centrating ore in sight
 !. Other properties owned by the Arizona-Cananea Mines corporation fare the Martini, Escoces, Pelon and
 Residual containing over 900 acres and with good surface indications.
 The Greene Cananea has entirely surrounded the Residual with de nouncements and has done some exploratory work with very satis- factory results.
 Mir. Morse concludes his report by stating his belief that the Arizona Cananea properties will develop into one of the largest mines in the district
 , F. l.. Harrington of Bisbee Ari- zona. who was formerly connected with the Calumet & Arizona in of the Native and Morita claims says
 Specimens taken from two CT three of the shafts run from 10 per cent to g per cent copper. and I believe the developments at great CT depth will prove the existence in the vicinity O fthese shafts of large and valuable ore bodies sim liar in size and character to those in the America and Oversight prop- critics fthe Greene-Cananea. The appearance of the surface of the Ari- zona-Cananea properties Is eual if not superior. to that overlying the largest and best ore bodies of the Greene-Cananea. and the water in the gulches is so strongly impreg- mated with copper. which shows that there is a general teaching of values all along the water courses cutting these properties"

NEW SONORA MINES COMPANY
 LAUNCHED ON BOSTON CURB

 The company has an authorized capital of 1000 shares, par s5, of which 400. 0.e00 shares have been is sued. There are 240.000 shares fin the treasury and directors have pro vided. by underwriting. $720,00O cash for working capital. The stock is already listed on the New York Curb.
 Among the Boston directors are Stephen R. Dow and Frank N. Stackpoie.
 Byron K. Morse. a mining engin- eer of New York. has recently made examination of the property. and we abstract from his report as follows:
 The main ore zone of the Cananea mining district is about 20 miles long. the properties of the Arizona Cananea Mines corporation being located in the southeastern half The northwest half is owned by Greene Cananea; Phelps, Dodge & Co. and others own the southwestern half. The porphyry ore is practically the same as that which occurs in the mines of the Moctezuma Copper Co. owned by Phelps, Dodge & Co. and the Metcalf Hill of the Arizona Cop. per Co
 The principal ore is a black sbl, pride Of copper or chalcocite. of which about s5 per cent of all the ore produced by Greene -Cananea is composed.
 The properties of the Arizona Can anea Mines corporation contain the three prequisites necessary to cop per deposits in which porphyry is contained. namely: Copper solutions in the country rock. a formation sui fieiently porous for the solution to penetrate and third a broken-up condition, contacts, fractures. ifs sures and faults through the forma- ton along the lines of which the solutions can pass and penetrate to both sides.
 On the Huerfana property of the Arizona Cananea Mines corporation shaft 40 feet deep has been sunk where copper values have increased with depth. Over 1900 feet of drifts and crosscuts have been driven Two prospect shafts 40 and 90 feet deep have also been sunk, both showing copper values.
 On the Corrigidor property a shaft 94 feet deep has been sunk near the bottom of which ore assaying 2 per cent copper was encountered.

.* MINING, MARKETS, FINANCIAL e*
WHY TOO MUCH RESTRICTION
 IS NOT VERY DESIRABLE

New York According to producers, one fthe most encouraging features of the copper situation is the large European consumption. particularly by Germany. Copper interests who have made a study of the German situation say copper consumption of that country is unparalleled, and instead of a shrinkage. an increase is looked for.
 Germany is doing everything in it's power to encourage manufacturing and the development of new enter prises. The Emperor is taking more than ordinary interest in the busi- ness affairs of the country and is making 1t a point to be present and address conventions of manufaeur- CTS. business men and financiers. A great play is being made for export trade with good results. To this more than anything else is attrib- uted the heavy demands for copper in Germany.
 Copper producers who have been abroad declare that not only have visible supplies decreased but stocks in the hands of manufactures are exceptionally small. Consumers of copper have refrained from buying the metal. believing they would have no difficulty in getting all they wanted on an 11-cent basis. Now they are entering the market freely and stocks in the hands of manu- facturers should show a material increase this month.
 One producer who has been abroad declares the attitude of the German

government toward railroads and industrials enterprises in general is exactly the opposite of what it is in this country. Development of new enterprises, extension of manufac- turing plants and railroads in the United States are held up to a large extent pending a clearer inter pretation of the governments atti- tude. Corporations do not care to go ahead with extensions until the Supreme Court has handed down it's decisions in the Standard oil and Tobacco cases.
 Curtailment of copper production throughout the country is now we'll under way. This applies to prac- tically all copper producing compa- nies. and August will reveal a shrinkage of from 10 per cent to IS per cent in this countrys produc- ton. Stocks of the metal here and abroad. amounting to something like 400.000000 pounds. are ex- pected to show a heavy falling off between now and the first of the year. but producers do not care to witness a drastic curtailment.
 As one producer puts it: We do not favor a shrinkage of 100000. .OOO pounds, which would represent not much more than five or six weeks consumption. Consumers, with a surplus of only 100000, 900 pounds would become anxious and might enter the market as purchasers of copper on a large scale and run prices up to an exorbitant level as was the case some years ago when tne metal touched 9 cents a pound
