HAWAIIAN firm
MAY NOT LAND
Army CONTRACT

Whether meat for Uncle Sans sol.
diers In Hawaii will be furnished by II
local concern or whether tho contract
for the coming year will go to a Coast
firm is a question which those inter.
estcd in the subsistence of tho troops,
both from military and commercial
standpoint, are anXiously waiting for
the cable to answer. Last Friday bids
for the meat supply we're opened by
the depot Commissary here, only one
proposal, that of the Hawaii Meat Co,
Ltd. being on file. The figures were
Cablcd to San Francisco, where bids
had been opened simultaneously, and
to date there has been no cableG ad.
vice Of the result.
According to the routine procedure,
Captain ID. u. Case, the depot commits
sary for the Department Of Hawaii,
would be notified by cable II the con.
tract was awarded to Honolulu firm,
but would not hear IL some of the fig.
ures submitted at the other end " the
line had been accepted.
"The fact that have had no advices
to date" said Captain Case this noon,
does not indicate. however, that the
Hawaii Meat Co. has lost out. The
chief Commissary of the division would
have to do considerable figuring before
letting the contract-to a concern out
side of Honolulu. for the reason that
the Army would then have to construct
its own cOld.storage plant, a big under
taking. II may take the better part of
week to figure out the relative cost
of supplying meat to the troops here,
even II some other firm has a lower
bid than the Hawaii Meat Co.
Soldiers Fare Well.
Under the present plan" continued
Captain Case, this office notifies the
contractor about two months ahead
how much meat will be required for
each month. II is then imported from
Australia. and placed In the compRny's
own cold.stOrage plant after inspection
until called for delivery to the differ
ent posts"
Captain Case says that the local
troops get as fine a quality of meat as
can be obtained In any part OF the
country, and that the price paid by the
Government Is about the same as that
| paid In continental United States.
The bid of the Hawaii Meat Co. for
the coming years supply was lOh
cents per pound for beef and 10 cents
for mutton. About $4,000 pounds Of
beef a month is the estimated supply.
Last year the same firm held the con-
tract, but the price was trille lower,
being 9k cents for beef and . cents
/ for mutton.
Other Food Contracts.
Local dealers will have chance TO
bid on other commissary supplies this
month. About May l6, the date not
having been definitely set, proposals
will be opened for supplying all grocer
les bought locally. This includes cOf'
/ fee, rice, beans and other staples. May
| 20 bids for furnishing butter for the
first six months of the fiscal year will
be considered. This contract is now
held by the Hawaii Meat Co. The ice
/ bids will be opened May 20.

brings the information that COncan.
non Is to be awarded the contract for
the administration building.
At the naval station no official infor.
nation of the award has been received
but the cable is In line with nforma-
ton brought here by Mr. COncannon
himself, who figured that although his
price for the building was larger than
that of the Lord.YOung Engineering
Co., his figure for extra bays was so
much less that ii the Government
spent its full appropriation of $4,000
on the building, the contract would
to his firm.
The bid of the Lord-Young Co was
$34 700, while that of the Concannon
Co. was $3i,95 However, the local
firm asked $4,000 for extra bays, while
the Concannon concern figured them
at $500 each. According to this
mornings dispatch, three extra bays
are to be added, which makes the con
tract price to Concannon $45,452, while
il the same amount of work was to be
done by LordYoung it would cost the
Government $i6,70O.

Kay Copper Company.

he Kay Copper Company has placed an order with one of the lead ing auto truck companies in Los An geles for ninety horse power truck and several trailers to be delivered ready for service within the ensuing week. The auto truck will go into com mission at once upon its arrival in Phenix, freightlng ore from the Kay Copper Company's mine, which IS near the Harris Copper Company's mines at the mouth of Black Canyon Creek and the Agua Fria river, fifty miles north of Phenix, to Glendale, from which place it is shipped to the smelters via the Santa Fe railroad. The truck manufacturers guarantee a hauling capacity of 20 tons and the engine of the truck is especially made to stand the rough mountainous trails over which it must pass in hauling the ore from the mine to the railroad. The engine is one of the latest makes, with rating of ninety horse power. The manufacturers of the truck guar antee to land the ore at the railroad at an expense of less than 3S per ton, and it is believed that if they live up to this contract the Kay Copper Con- pany will install several of these trucks. The Kay Copper Company and the Harris Copper Company own a vein of copper ore that experts claim to be richer than any other ore of this class in Arizona, if not in the world. The Kay Copper Company has had large force of men at work in the last few months and has succeeded in sink. ing shaft, and already has thousands of tons of ore in its bins at the mine awaiting the proper shipping facill- ties. The huge auto truck and train of trailers will use the same route that the racing cars used in coming from Los Angeles, but will not cover the distance in such remarkable time, as the speed of the truck will be only ten miles per hour without load, and about seven miles per hour when loaded to It's full carrying capacity Phenix Democrat.

Black Diamonds
 of South America.

The black diamond comes from Brazil. This stone, which is perfect ly opaque, is not deemed by experts to be beautiful. Indeed, were there known no other kinds of diamonds, it is probable that little effort would be eXerted to mine the black variety. The favor it enjoys is not very old, for p years ago the trade in black dia- monds was practically nil. The ever. increasing improvement of boring instruments in use has brought out the value of the black diamond, the use of diamond drills now having become so general that the price of the black stone has rapidly increased. Today the diamond is of prime necessity in working tempered metals, saving marbles, and in mining. A circular saw provided with diamond points gives surprising results, cutting into thin slices the hardest of materials.
 On the banks of the Sac Jose in Brazil are found the traces of the first exploitation of the mines by the natives, the Garimperos. The black diamond having, however, no con- mercial value. at the time. it does not appear to have attracted these people. It was in 1858 that the diamond dig gers discovered black stone In Sac Jose. They attempted to ascertain the nature of the find by cracking the stone. Their efforts were fruitless, the stone resisting their onslaughts, the river. The stone was said to have weighed several thousand carats, and to have represented loss of several hundred thousands of dollars The exploitation of the Brazilian diamond mines by the Garimperos is most un- scientific. The creviceS of the rocks are explored with the hand, the gravel being taken away in little bar rels carried on the head. Attempts have been made to lessen the time of the work by extracting the stones from the river bed by diving for them, but the violence of the steam during the rainy seasons is such that this plan is impracticable. The only method, it is contended, which will produce good results is that of distinguishing x Engineering World.

Kelley, New Mexico
 Big Lead-Zinc Camp,

A Kelley dispatch says: The Ozark Smelling x Mining company, owned by the Sherwin. Williams Paint con- pany of Cleveland, Ohio, is putting up 2OO-ton concentrating plant to cost a quarter of a million dollars. at the Ozark group of lead.zinc mines at Kelly. The new superintendent is Frank l.. Preston. The Ozark prop erty has been worked almost continu- ously for the past 35 years.
 First it was worked as silver mine: second. as lead mine, and now Is operating as zinc mine. It produces both carbonates and sulphides of zinc. The company ships the carbonate ore, and concentrates the sulphides.
 The mining camp of Kelly is now shipping about p carloads of zinc and lead ore each week, most of which is produced by three companies, the Fri Bullion, the Mcdonald Leasing com pany and the Ozark Smelling & Mill
 
 There has been recently discovered in the Nit shaft of the i-Bullion mine large deposit of copper ore. A shaft was sunk 50 feet from the bottom of which a drift was run one way 50 feet and two crosscuts were run p feet each way in solid copper ore and as yet no walls have been eurountered The Ozark company is also driving a drift to cut the same great copper body on it's ground. On the strength of this and other discoveries, it is pre- dicted by we'll known Fl Paso ex- pert, who has visited this camp re- gently and is very familiar with the workings and the geological conditions, that in very few years Kelly camp will take it's place as one of the big copper camps of the Southwest.
