with this object in view, and the reorganization, effected means. the discharge of bankruptcy proceed ings against the old company and the early opening up of the large properties of the new company at Swansea, This also means another industry and another large pay roll in Arizona.
 Graham Guardian: R. Roy Sibley, president of the Copper Creek Mining Co., is now in Europe, having been there several months in connection with affairs of his company, looking to the further development of their properties sit. uated about thirty miles from Winkleman. That company is contemplating constructing a stan dard gauge railroad from their mines to connect with the Arizona Eastern near Winkleman. If con- structed this line will serve not only to open the properties of the Copper Creek Co. but will have the effect of opening other prop. ties in the heavily mineralized district adjacent thereto.
 Tombstone ProspectOr: Another big mining deal is reported from the Dragons in the Johnson dis trict, according to advices received in Tombstone. It is understood eastern parties representing the Guggenheim interests have obtain ed an option on the control of the Centurion group and other mines in the same section, including the John Gleeson group of six claims. The amount of the bond is not learned, but has been reported to be about $300,000. It is asserted some extensive development work is contemplated and much mining activity may be looked for from this section as a result of the re- ported deals.
 Prescott Journal Miner Henry Meacham, formerly miner of the Bradshaws, continued his journey to Albuquerque yesterday after a two days stopover in the city, and had in his possession a gold nugget valued at $1S6, which was washed out on the Santa Maria near the the old Mexican placer camp, on March 31. He was working with two other miners and the result of the winter cleanup among them aggregated over $1,000. He will return in a few weeks and will operate this summer with a dry washer of his own invention, one of which has been used successfully on the desert near Bouse. He is returning to the above city to visit with his mother and other relat. ives, and will also build his mach inc in that city.

ger smelter, on the edge of this district and near the Santa Cruz river, is running very smoothly. We believe this is the first public smelter to make a success smelling ore with petroleum as a fuel. Their automobile truck brings down daily from their Plumed Knight group about 26 to 3S tons of ore.
 Miami Messenger: Plans are under way for organizing mining institute here. At meeting held at the Y. NJ. c. A. Wednesday night several prominent mining people were present and gave ad- dresses, among whom were B. B. Gottosberger and J. Park Charming vice president and consulting en- gineer, of the Miami Copper Com pany.
 Miner < Stockman: We hear that quite large group of mines lying near and around the old San Xavier property has been bonded to some eastern people. Different owners of mines have come together and put in their property consisting of lead, silver and copper mines. The details we will give in a later issue.
 Florence Blade-Tribune: Juan DeArmitt brought the Blade Tribune cabinet this week, a splendid specimen of copper ore, weighing about 15 pounds. It is from a claim situated in the Red Hills district, F miles east of Florence, and owned by himself and Bert Williams, of Ray. The specimen will run about 50 per cent copper.
 Miner < Stockman: The Twin Buttes Copper Co. is developing large bodies of copper ore in their Senator Morgan and King mines. Some 50 to 50 tons are shipped daily to the Pioneer Shelter. They have 25 men at work under the management of E. G. Bush, who is succeeding in putting this prop erty in better condition than it has been for some time. Stockholders are more cheerful lately.
 Prescott Journal-Miner: H. N. Coleman, manager of the Sunny side Mining company, while in the city yesterday stated that the ex- perimental cyaniding tests had been concluded, with satisfactory results. A plant of sufficient capa- city to treat big output will be installed soon, when MT. Coleman says operation on an extensive scale will follow. The mill has been running at intervals on ores from various claims owned by the company, and satisfactory returns given. Mir. Coleman feels pleased with conditions.
 Prescott Courier: The Clara Consolidated Mining Company has been superseded by the Swansea Consolidated Gold and Copper Mining Company, and under terms of contracts between the two com panies the latter corporation agrees to pay forthwith all labor claims outstanding against the Clara company, and also agrees to pay the balance of it's unsecured indebtedness.
