 | The concrete work at the Junction has been frequently mentioned in | these columns as one of the most i'm | Dortant undertakings Of the district. | It will take months to complete and ] IS a departure in the mining metE-
 ods heretofore employed in this sec tion of the country.
 1 In every way tht C. and A. proper. ties were never making such a splen- aid showing noF promising anything
 like what they are now doing 1 Construction Work Starts Already the Copper Queen com1any
 has started on the construction work | that was mentioned last week ds soon to be commenced. l Excavation for foundations is being ! done at several points. Among these I are at the Sacramento shaft where | preparations were thus begun for the l installation of tht new engine ant ] hoist. At the Southwest the excaya- [ ton is for the new change house and another force is excavating for the | addition that is to be built to the power house.
 As yet the start has not been made on the deepening of the two shafts \ that are 10 be put down further nor | has the new shaft that is to be put in ! been started. This work will be start ! ed in the very near future and 9r-- Engagements for the start are now be. Ing completed.
 Developments are Excellent Work of developing the latest ore body of the Uncle Sam workings in | the Southwest country continues IL ! is unofficially learned that this ore 1 body has now been cut for a length of over $50 feet. It is one of the | important discoveries Of the year II the district The ore IS of a higher
 grade than the average of the dis ] trict by a large percentagt on the assays.
 Periphery development is also being continued from the Sacramento work ings and it is learned that this de- yelopment continues of a highly sat isfaCtOry nature. The results thus far have been more than was expect
 ed when undertaken and are of a great importance to the camp When begun it was intended to develop a concentrating proposition in a hith- erto unexploTed country but it has thus far been developed that much Of the ore contained in this character of deposit is sufficiently high grade for ordinary treatment at the smelter SO that in many instances concentration would be unnecessary.
 Remarkable Ore Body
 One of the most remarkable ore bodies ever encountered in the War ren District is in the Shattuck Ar zona. It is said that here there mas been developed a great gob of ere. 90 by So by 90 feet, rich high grade copper and 1t is estimated that this one body alone Is worth upwards of S2.0O0.000. Some Of this ole has been taken out but at the present time none of it is being mined and shipp- ed. IL is so blocked out that 1t can be mined and shipped in whatever quantities may from time to time be. desired
 Ship Another Car
 When Shattuck began shipping 10 the Calumet and Arizona Shelter at Douglas the first of last month lts daily shipment was four cars. 900 tons. Since that time shipments have been increased and the daily outpgt from the Shattuck is now 25O toRs. This will be increased as the new C. and A. shelter is prepared to handle more ore until the maximum amount specified in the contract entered in to by the two companies shall have been reached.
 A daily ore shipments form all of the mines Of the district at this time places the figures one has to reduce them 10 pounds when the inpuessive terms are found to be iI0,000, ,060.
