DOUGLAS, May 25.-That the Shattuck smelter has been agreed on definitely by the directors Of the company. was the word given out here yesterday by l.. C. Shattuck, Of Bisbee. the local and managing di- rector of the company Mir. Shattuck further stated tLat in accordance with instructions received from the board recently he had closed the deal and secured title papers for the shelter site and the work O. making a contour survey and plan of the works has been completed. Just when actual work on the plaint will be started he could not say, but was positive in the statement that the shelter would be built
 The work al the mine, he said, is bringing results Of the most gratify- ing character with every blast and stroke of the drills. The ore now being shipped to the Queen shelter is very high grade and the increase in price of the red metal, over the average rrice of 2 year ago, will go q long ways towards the construction of the new plant which is now es. timated to cost S50O.OO0.
