SALE Is ASURED
 OF THE GOLD ROAD

The sale of the Gold Road mines is said to be an assured fact, says the Kingman Miner The sampling of the mines mas been completed and only few of the engineering corps remain at the camp checking up the odds and ends and getting a line on the necessities of the property to add to its production. It is said that the sampling will show results far above that anticipated. In the east drift from the Billy Bryan shaft the ore is said to run well above $20 and in the breast the entire face gives values of $2S. The drift has been continued east 300 feet from the shaft and has reached vertical depth of 7s0 feet. The company owns about 1900 feet of ground east of this drift, all of which shows great values in gold, the croppings being easily traceable. The Billy Bryan location is believed to be about the central part of the ore bearing ground, and it was in the outerop of this part of the vein that the richest ore ever taken from the great property was found. Leas- CTS made good money working on the mine until the company cancelled the leases and proceeded to sink the

Twelve Troops Ordered HuTTied|y to Assist pdtrO|in} The
 Border
Armed Bands of Rebels Are Reported Crossing Line
 At Isolated Places.
By Associated Press.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 3. - The acute revolutionary situation in Northern Mexico today moved the government to hurry twelve addition al troops of cavalry to the frontier to preserve neutrality. The action is based on strong representations from the Mexican government that armed bands of revolutionists are entering Mexico at isolated places along the boundary. Of the twelve companies four were ordered from San Fran cisco, six from Fort Mead, N. D., and two from Fort Wingate, N. M. This makes a total of twenty-two troops along the frontier, or 1,5OO men. In view of the Juarez situation four troops will camp at Fl Paso, Tex.
 Juarez Still Quiet.
 FL PASO, Tex, Feb. 3.-The city of Juarez is quiet and dark, at 11:30 o'clock tonight, but with the knowl- edge that an insurrecto attack is sure to come within the next twenty four hours, there is some apprehen- sion that the attack may come to- night, but rebel sympathizers here have an understanding that it will come soon after daylight. It is be- lieved that Juarez will put up some show of resistance, but it is expected that before night it will be in the hands of Orozco and Blanco. There is no truth in the rumors that the Juarez officials have fled to Fl Paso. All are at their posts tonight.
 Official Notice Given.
 FL PASO, Tex, Feb. 3.-Official notice from Pasquale Orozco to the American consul that an attack on Juarez would begin within twenty four hours from the time delivered, was received at 1O:3O o'clock.
 Situation Well in Hand.
 CITY OF MEXICO, Feb. 3.-Min- ister Creel issued a statement tonight saying the government had the situa- ton well in hand, and that foreign interests would not be endangered, and that the revolutionary movement would soon be subdued. He said the commander of the troops at Juarez has notified the War Department he was confident he would be able to resist the insurrectos until relief ar rives. eff the rebels should capture the city, it would only be a few days before it will be retaken by the government troops on the way in suf- ficient numbers to defeat them," the minister concludes.

EXCESSIVE HEAT
CAUSES A GENERAL
SLUMP IN TRADE
CROP SCARE CAUSES CORN AND
OATS TO JUMP TO HIGHEST
PRICES OF YEAR.

NEW YORK, July 13.-The week
just closed has been one of general
quietude in practically all lines of
trade, according to adyices from
reliable sources. This is attributed
partly to the abnormally hot wealth
err and partly to the midsummer
shutdowns and vacations Corn and
oats have advanced to the highest
price of the year, due to a general
crop scare caused by the heat. While
the crop situation is regarded as ir-
regular, it is believed that with inn
provement in weather conditions,
large cereal and cotton crops are
still possible.
Retail trade in dry goods is re-
ported to have been slightly stim-
ulated by the hot weather, which
has caused heavy demand for light
fabrics. Six months failure returns
indicate more strain this year than
in either 1910 or 1909. There were
81 per cent more failures and 7.6
per cent larger liabilities than a
year ago. June bank clearings were
larger in the aggregate than in any
preceding month since January. The
stock market has recovered from a
depression earlier in the week, due
to crop scares.
Within the last week the prices
of cotton futures on the New York
Cotton Exchange have moved with
in narrow radius. July and Aug
ust, the old crop months, opened
the session at their levels for the
close of last Saturday, viz, 1850
and 14.46 cents, respectively, after
working up to 1852 and 14.55
cents, their highI for the week.
Their closing figures were 14.34 and
. 14.11 cents. New crop months
weakened upon the break of last
Thursday and closed the session s
!, to IL points down from Saturday s
range. Rains in Texas, effectually
putting an end to the drought con-
ditions that for more than six weeks
/ have prevailed there, were the pri-
I mary cause of the weeks depres-
sion.

arousing the people to a fulled ap-
probation of the cause of the North

NO VOTE ON
RfCIPR6CITi Re iSiS II LIKELY
BEFORE AUGUST
SENATOR LA TOILETTE HAS A
SPEECH THAT WILL OC-
CUPY A WEEK.

WASHINGTON, July 13.--It looks
now as if no further effort would
be made in the senate to fix date
for vote on the Canadian recipro-
city bill and amendments until after
Senator La Toilette has delivered
himself of his speech on the tariff
which may occupy a week. Friends
of the reciprocity bill now predict
that the session probably will be
prolonged until August Is.
Senator Stone asked Senator Cum
Minis late last week to agree to a
definite date late in July for vote
on the Canadian bill and amend
ments, but Mr.. Cummins replied that
he could not consent to fix a time
for a vote until after there had
been full and free discussion of all
the pending amendments.
The debate progressed under the
most uncomfortable conditions. Palm
leaf fans were everywhere in evi
dence. For the greater part of the
time the senate chamber practically
was deserted. There were two
speeches on reciprocity, both attack
| ing it. One was the continuation
of the speech started yesterday BY
Mr.. Grenna of North Dakota, wht
declared repeatedly that he stoot
ready to vote with the democrat
to amend the Canadian reciprocit,
bill with provisions for liberal re
duCtion of duties on the necessarie
