Shattuck Works
 225 Men in Mine.

A Bisbee dispatch says:-Develop. ment work at the Shattuck is being pushed with gratifying results. The development work is on the 300, 400, 300 and 600 foot levels. There are 225 men employed at the mine, of which l9O are under ground. The company is keeping up its average shipments of 25O tons day to the Calumet and Ari- zona smelter at Donglas, and is only awaiting the completion of the shelter to nearly double it's shipments.
 Shipments of lead ore to the Fl Paso shelter continue, This ore is running about 40 per cent lead, three per cent copper and nearly 7$ ton in gold and silver values. On the 300 foot level ore has been cut for a dis tance of 90 feet and has been found to run very high in value, amounting to 30 percent in copper and 25S in gold and silver values. Good results have also been obtained in the development of the Leo claim, this being practical ly untouched territory.
 Good reports are made by the Cop per Queen. The sinking of the new shaft near Don Louis, which is to be known as the Wade Hampton, is pro- gressing favorably, although it is not yet at a sufficient depth to accurately determine the quality of ore. A drift is being put in at the POO foot level of the Silver Bear, and prophyry de- velopment at the Copper King, with satisfactory results. Construction work is also being pushed by the con- pany.
 The foundation is being laid for the new hoist at the Sacramento and work is well under way on the new change house at the Southwest. Considerable excavation work had to be done at this point. The production is being Kept up by the Queen and it is expect ed that an increase will bo shown in the February figures.
 The mining committee of the Con- merclal club is now at work on con- plete chart showing all the claims of the Warren district.
 Berry Baxter, president of the Princeton Copper company, located near here in the Huachuaca moun- tains, is in the city on his way to San Francisco. While here he has made a trip to the property and reports that work is progressing favOrably. Twenty-Five men are employed at the mine, though no shipments are now being made.
 Work on the concentrating of the Junction shaft of the Calumet x Ari- zona is now well under way. The shaft is destined to become one of the most important on the whole Calumet X Arizona pl operty, as it has great lateral area still to go into. From the shaft it has several thousand feet to go before it touches the property of the Denn-Arizona in that direction, and it is figure that great serles of ore deposits will be discovered, as the miners cut through the rocks in this field.
 Enough has already been done in diamond drilling to demonstrate that this big tract is well mineralized. Besides this, running down the valley towards Don Louis is another big ore body that is being proved by the Junction and Briggs shafts. The miners are now going into these con- paratively new deposits and good suc- cess is reported. The ores are giving good results In the company's shelter at Douglas. All the big ore develop ments is above the 400 foot level and above this point towards the surface there is anywl ere from 700 to 900 feet of ground holding copper ore oxides and sulphides, carrying excellent values in gold and silver, besides cop- per.
 The big limestone area is being fol- lowed laterally so as to get an Idea of he extent of the plane and good ore is being continually encountered.
