Miami.

Everything in and about the Miami Copper company's mine and mill at Globe, has been ready for operation since March IA, when the ore bins were filled, the machinery of the con- centrator in motion, and every integer of the plant complete-with one ex- ception. The 8-inch casing used tenn porarily to carry water from the pumping plant at Burch to the con- centrator, two miles distant, was found inadequate to the strain. However, considerable water is being supplied and the plant is really in operation, some ore being handled, the first on the 18th instant. When the temporary casing shall have been replaced by the 14-inch pipe all of the units now erected gradually will be placed in operation, although until the arrival of the larger pipe only one unit will be operated.
 At the mine the caving system that has been brought to its perfect appli- cability to the ore body and other pecu- liar conditions at the Miami by Mine Superintendent Lawton is well along in its preliminary stage and moving with scientific precision. The 75-foot- deep ore pocket on the 42O-foot level, at the south of the main shaft No. 4) is not yet completed in detail, the con- crete-hoored electric locomotive barn on the same level is not wholly finish ed, but with exception of few such details the mine is ready to supply the daily quota of 1000 tons of ore the mill will handle in the near future. The hoist engines, skips, and cages are running smoothly and the electric locomotives have been lowered into the mIne. The ore bins have been full for several days and some of the rock was run through the crusher as early as the 14th of March. The belt conveyor carried some of the fine ore into the mill on the following day. No hitch is apprehended in any portion of the concentrator or mine.
 At the power plant all machinery is in place and operating with clock-like regularity. The pumping plant at Burch also is satisfactory in every de- tail, and were it not for the necessity of using the 8-inch casing a few days more everything from the mine to the vacuum pumps that will dry the con- centrates might be said to be in prac- tical working order.

Tramway for Treasure Mine.

A Mogollon, N. M., dispatch says: At the Treasure Mining company's property it is reported that a survey has been made from the mine to the mill to establish the feasibility of an aerial tramway between these points, the installation of which would elimi- nate the present system of haulage by wagon and its attendant annoyances. The mill is operating steadily.
 The Deadwood mine's last weeks operation resulted in 50 sacks of con- centrates from 255 tons of ore treated. No bullion cleanup was made. The mill runs steadily and smoothly and remarkably good results have been obtained for new plant only recently started up. The trouble that most equipment undergoes in the stage of adjustment were largely absent.
 At the Ernestine Mining company, the cleanup for the latter half of Feb ruary is being made. During last week 710 tons of ore were treated: concentrates, A sacks. Mine develop ment is still producing very gratifying results. The company has a large wood reserve in mill yard.
 The Enterprise Mining company re- ports the most promising ore bodies yet discovered on this property, en- countered in the winze below the fifth level, where a strong vein of good milling ore has been opened to an ex- tent of several feet, the width as yet not ascertained.
 At the Socorro mines the recent snow storms have handicapped work in wood camp near the power plant, but a good fuel reserve on hand will per init continuous operation SO that there will be no stoppage in the output of the mine and mill.
 The Maud S. mine property, long idle, is reported to have changed hands and that the new owners, a New York syndicate, will reopen the plant and will employ large force of men. Due to the diligence of the watchman the mill and other service improvements are in good state of preservation, not having undergone the ravages of careless trespassers that is frequently observed in idle plants.

Northern Border is Home of Lawless-

are considered unquestionable sources,
vandalism, the communicating of food
supplies by lawless persons and inter
ference with the activities of business
people are growing in northern Mexico
to such an extent that thousands of non
combatants, including many Americans,
are leaving the country.
Americans are allowed to leave freely,
but not without being detained by
bands of armed men, and, in some in
stances, deprived of their valuables.
Cattle and horses are being taken with
out regard to ownership, and many
stores have been raided and left empty.
1t is given out that depredations are
not countenances by the insurrecto
army, but are performed by lawless
element not acting in accord with the

RECIPROCITY AND TARIFF.
Pres. Taft Will Confine His Message to
Extra Session of Congress to
These Subjects Only.

President Taft, according to present
plans, will confne his message to the
extra session of congress to the sub
jects of Canadian reciprocity and the
establishment of tariff board.
He is convinced the country desires
and ought to desire a further revision
of several schedules of the Payne-Ald-
rich act.
He feels the wooden schedule is in
defensible and is anxious it should be
revised soon.
The president is equally convinced
that the country desires that revisions
of the tariff be made in the light of
scientific information, which it is the
duty of the tariff board to collect.
If Mr.. Taft's wishes were met the
extra session will devote itself to reel
procity first, the government tariff
board second, postponing the revision
of the textile schedules until the tariff
board completes its work December l.
President Taft frankly expects the
democratic house and nearly democratic
senate of the 62nd congress to help
him carry out program of scientific
revision of the tariff.
President Taft has said he believed
it would be illogical, unwise and injuri-
Gus to the business interests if a gen.
eral tariff revision should be>undertaken.

BOUGHT STOLEN POSTAGE STAMPS
L. F. Naftzger. a Former President of
Wichita Bank, Found Guilty

L. s. Naftzger, formerly president of
the Fourth National bank of Wichita,
Kan, was found guilty by a jury in
the federal court of buying stolen post
age stamps. The offense is punishable
by maximum sentence of five years in
prison and fine of $4,000.
Naftzger purchased the stamps from
Frank S. Burt, former chief of police
here. The stamps had been stolen from
Kansas postoffices, and were sold to
Burt by John Callahan of Wichita, who
is under prison sentence for robbing
the Milan, Kan, postoffice, and has
also been convicted of buying and
selling postage stamps.
The former bankers defense was
that he did not know the stamps had
been stolen. He admitted purchasing
them at discount.
