Prescott Journal Miner: James H. Slack, of the Ruth mine, six miles to the south of this city, stat ed yesterday that the eleventh car is being loaded at the Santa Fe depot for shipment to Pueblo, and the condition of the property was never so gratifying. A vertical depth of 200 feet has been reached, and sinking was resumed short time ago. The ore bodies continue strong and the grade of the min erals carried is increasing also. Zinc continues to lead in value, with lead and silver in their order. MT. Slack declares that develop ment to date insures the property to be producer for the next year, under any conditions that may result. He is we'll pleased with the outlook, and after additional ground is opened up the force of miners will be increased.
 ]
 Prescott Journal Miner: George c. Ruffner has gone to Phoenix
 from Skull Valley for the purpose
 of buying several head more of
 mules to be used on his freighting contract in hauling ores from the
 Commercial mines in Copper Basin
 for shipment frm Skull Valley by
 railroad to the Douglas smelters.
 He has over thirty head at present.
 delivering daily to the railroad
 fifty tons, and the increased ton
 mage that has accumulated beyond
 the capacity of the transportation
 facilities on hand, necessitates the
 placing of additional outfits on the
 road. This property is said to be
 producing more heavily at present
 than ever, and as drifting from the
 winze progresses the ore bodies
 being opened up are of astounding
 proportions, and the copper values
 of the highest grade known in Ari-
 zona. Over seventy car loads of
 fifty tons to car have been ship
 ped to date to Douglas, and from development, with only limited
 stoping given.
 Prescott Courier: Thirty mules being insufficient to carry on hi; freighting business, George Ruffnel . recently went to Phoenix and ac quired five more of the long-ears to haul ore from three camps. ln addition to the contract with tht , Commercial Mining Co m p n which Mir. Ruffner has for th' . hauling of ore from the company'' 3 property at Copper Basin, iron | which point he has already hauled t some 75 carloads to Skull Valley g two other mining companies hay :. ore awaiting shipment, and Ruff ner's mules to bring the ore to town
 A few weeks ago the Ruffner team l hauled large lot of ore from th s Snoozer mine, near Senator, an | since that time ore has been ac | culating upon the dumps unti s there are now about seven carload e awaiting transportation. Also a 't the camp of the Lookout Coppe n Company about 150 tons of ore r. ready to be hauled to this city fc ,s shipment. As the mines, especial X the copper mine at Copper BasiI o produce ore faster than the freigh' le ing outfit could haul it, M ,o Ruffner was compelled to send le acquisition for more mules
