LIVE OAK PROPERTY
 STILL DEVELOPING
Miami Mine Ready to Begin Drifting From New Sta

GLOBE, Dec. 2l:-The development of the Live Oak mine continues stead fly with results reported to be satis- factory. The work at No. 2 shaft $ at present confined to the cutting oi a station at the 900-foot level. which is near the bottom of the ore body.
 The shaft is near the western end of the property and encountered ore at a. depth of 705 feet. The ore con tinued to a depth of 915 feet, at which point the shaft entered the zone of primary sulphides. The ore consists of chalcocite. the black sulphide of copper. in an altered silicified schist and averaged 2 3-4 Der cent copper for the 2lO feet for which it was ex- posed in the shaft. This is consider ably higher than the average for the entire ore body. which is reported to be 2.I1 per cent.
 After the station on the 9O0-fooi level has been completed, drifting on the ore body will begin, according to

COMPANIES MERGED

News of Consolidation Sent From Boston Received

GLOBE, Dec 21--A wire was re. ceived from Boston yesterday stating that the Inspiration Consolidated Cop Fer company had been organized un. der the laws of Maine tor the purpose of taking over the Live Oak and In. spiratiOn The new company is capi talized at SS0.000,000, par ralue Sz0 per share.
 The details of the basis Of consoli. dation have not yet been made public but the general opinion is that the ra- tio will be four shares of Inspiration to one of Live Oak.
 Based on a developed tonnage of 14,G0O 900 tons as claimed in some re- cent independent reports, this would seem to be an equitable adjustment, but fl Charles Hayden's report of 19,- 000,000 tons is accepted as correct some authorities on copper figure the ratio ought to be over five to one
 This consolidation, backed as 1t is by some of the strongest operators in the country, is the best thing that has happened to the Globe district for sears.
 Construction of a concentratoT Of al least 5000 tons daily capacity is be lieved to be assured. The site has been decided upon, and while it's loca ton has not yet been made public, il is believed that the mill will be built on the Cordova ground, recently pur chased by the Inspiration company near the town of Miami.
 Within three years, the Giobe-Mi ami district should be producing ovel 100.000,000 pounds of copper annually which will place it next to the Bisbes district and hence the second district in Arizona in point of production And the time is not far distant wheI ] IL win nYershadoW Rishee-

Within a short time the worI of extracting half a million dol lars from the dumps of the old Harqna Hala mine, in North em Yuma county. will begin. Ma chinery for the cyaRiding plant is being installed.
 John Martin and a group of asso- ciates have taken over the Harqua Hala and will work over the tailings. which contain S5O0.GG0 in addition to the millions that the famous old property has already produced In the first place. the ore from the mine was very rich, but it was worked by somewhat primitive cyanide process and the average loss in the tailings was from s4 to S a ton. Many bun- dreds of tons contain much more gold than that
 Ten of the most modern cyan ide tanks manufactured are being in stalled and within a few weeks they will be ready for work to start upon the 400,000 tons of tailings lying on the dump. The mine itself will not be touched It is possible that there are undiscovered ore bodies on the lower levels, but no attempt will be made to open them at this time.
 Big Reservoir Building
 Within thirty days the two million gallon reservoir, which the New Ia Paz Gold Mining company will use in working the old La Paz placers, below Parker to Yuma county. will be completed. The two 250-horse power gas engines and two triplez pumps of 8 guaranteed capacity of 250 gallons each per minute, have been purchased.
 One million. three hundred thou. sand cubic yards of the gravel has been tested, and the average value proved to be S55.S0 a yard It is es- timated that there are 2I.0O0, 900 yards of gold bearing gravel on the company's property. Ten million yards is estimated to be worth S2.S0 a yard. but it will all pay for work in. Engineers claim that the gravel can be handled for five cents a yard, and the machinery that is being in stalled will hand.e 2,O00 yards a day.
 On the lower claims a digger will be used It will utilize the water flowing of the hydraulics and will materially increase the production.
 There is every reason to believe that the Jerome Verde Company is in earnest in it's declaration that work is to be resumed immediately after the first of the year. The road from Jerome to the line is being repaired. About the time that the company ceased operations during the early part of the summer, the north drift was opening very favor able conditions and it was believed that ore was not far away.
 Azurite Work Starts
 The owners of the Azurite group which is located at Price Station ten miles east of Florence in Pinal county. have commenced develop ment work As. soon as the Guggen- helm smelter at Hayden is ready to receive ores, shipments to that point will commence. This property is a promising one and probably will be a steady shipper.
 James Tharp and Frank Barragan are taking some rich copper and gold ore from the Tharp property, ten miles west of Florence. In the bottom of the old shaft they un- covered a fine body of ore that has every indication of being permanent This shaft was once abandoned, under the impression that the vein had been cut off by a lateral fault. but the supposed fault proved to be merely a contraction, and one round

 Two cburn drills are in operation near the western end and a third drill is being set uP over hole No. A. This hole was formerly put down to a depth of about 1000 feet and had to be discontinued at that depth on ae- count of caving. though the bottom of the hole was still in ore An at tempt will now be made to deepen this hole with 3-inch tools and reach the bottom of the ore body. One of the holes now being drilled is reported tc be in very good ore.

(From Thursdays Journal. }

There was a steady run of cattle
in the North Portland yards today
but the prices realized were not IA
vorable n any degree. The fact that
s6.1O was paid yesterday for some
Montana stock has caused some COM
plant from local shippers, who as
sert that the difference between the
quality of local offerings recently and
the big shipments from Montana was
not sufficient to spread the price be-
tween s5.65 and s6.10. The former
has been the high value recently for
local tops in the steer division Of
the Nortr Portland yards.
The big run of cattle today was
spread over the entire northwest. but
the bulk of the offerings came from
Oregon. The shipment of eight loads
from Rosenburg was the big reature
of the day. These averaged 1893
rounds and sold at s5.35.
Total arrivals of cattle in the yards
today were IA head, compared with
90 yesterday and 666 head last
