United States Lacks Tin Deposits.

This is one of the new metals that
are abundant in some other parts Of
the world but not yssabundant in the
United States, according to the United
States Geological Survey. An equiva-
lent of only "a short tons of tin ore.
carrying 60 per cent metallic tin, valu-
ed at 36,97O$, was produced in the
United States during 1918. The largest
quantity of tin was taken out on Buck
Creek, Alaska.
The Federated Malay States (refer-
red to as the Straits, or Straits Set
tlements) produce by far the greatest
quantity of tin, and NEARLY all of it
comes from alluvial deposits, !.only d. a
little being obtained from veins. Dur
ing 1918 the shipments amounted to
Sc, 142 short tons, against 81, 23l tons
in 1912. The Federated Malay States
produce much more tin than any other
country, and the output is practically
all from placers. Dredging is now an
important and growing mode of tin
mining.
The English output from Cornwall is
estimated by the Mining Journal, Lon
don, at 5000 long tons $500 short
tons.) The Chinese shipments from
Hongkong were reported as a, 1886 short
tons Q15,O75 slabs of liz pounds each. }
The Mining Journal, London, credits
Nigeria with production of 3, SIT tons,
and South Africa with an equivalent of
2,O7O tons of metallic tin.
The Bolivian ore, which it is now
proposed to smelt in the United States
to supply the war shortage, is all de-
rived from veins, and that country is
by far the largest producer of lode tin.
The value of tin imports for 1918
amounted to Al, 1896, O5O$. The imports
of tin for consumption were the third
largest on record and amounted to
about 4O.8 per cent of the worlds pro-

Mining Exhibit At State Fair
So To be Best In History.

Declaring that the Arizona State Fair
to be held at Phoenix during the week
beginning November 9th will be bigger
and better than ever, and that the
mining exhibit in particular will surpass
all former ones, j. C. Goodwin, superin-
tendent of the mining department, is in
the city to secure additional exhibits.
He will return to Phoenix tonight.
Mr.. Goodwin came particularly to
secure exhibits from the Shattuck,
which so far is not represented, and also
from the Juniper Flats. Those will be
placed in the mining department and
added to the permanent exhibits. The
specimens in the mining department are
on exhibition every day, and not just
during the fair. Phoenix is visited daily
by scores of Fasteners who are inter-
ested in mining, investment seekers,
etc., and the mining exhibit is a mecca
for these people. 1t is considered the
best in the state and has many times
over proved the wisdom of its establish
ment Of the hundreds of exhibits the
Copper Queen. c. & A. and United
Verde are considered the three best, in
the order named.
Joseph H. Gray, secretary of the War
rem District Commercial club, has given
Mr.. Goodwin large separate panoramic
views of Bisbee, Lowell and Warren.
These are so inches long and the three
make splendid composite picture of
the Warren District. They will be
placed in the mining department of the
fair as permanent exhibits. The Bisbee

War Hats Mining in Chill and Peru

A Panama, dispatch says:--Travelers
reaching here from the West Coast of
South America reports that the effect
of the European war is keenly felt in
Peru and Northern Chill. Mining in
the great nitrate fields is practically
suspended owing to the loss of the usual
European markets and since the nitrate
region is practically desert, incapable
of supporting any other industry, the
miners face starvation or migration as
their alternatives.
The large import and export houses
such as at Kima and Callac are doing
very little business.
Scarcity of gold or other suitable
circulating medium has been a diff
Guilty in Peru and apparently it has been
impossible for the government to agree
upon an adequate relief measure that
would bring better conditions. AS a
result exchanges have increased in
value and it has been found necessary
to declare partial moratorium which
has been extended from time to time.
In all of the West Coast parts of con-
sequences there are idle German steam
.ers which previous to the European con-
fict played an important part in the
CO lamerce of South America. British
steamers which have shared with the
German companies the carrying trade
of Western South America, still are
calling regularly at these ports, but
owing to the lack of business are carry
ing very little freight and few pas
sengers.

State Fair Notes.

Secretary T. E. Shaughnessy, of the
Arizona State Fair, has directed par
ticular attention this season, to the
preparation of the free acts, for the
entertainment of the Fair patrons. AL
ready he has signed many contracts for
sensational stunts.
Perhaps, the piece-de-resistance of
all the free attractions, as they are
called, will be the coming of Lincoln
Beachey's foremost aviator, Mickey
Mcclure, who, under the sobriquet of
the well-known Irishman, has been
making fine exhibitions at number of
aviation meets and Fair gatherings
throughout the land this summer.
Mickey Mcclure, whom many believe
will follow the manner of his very
daring teacher, Lincoln Beachey, is but
boy in years, yet he stands today as
one of the most daring air-pilots, whom
has taken up this great work.
Scarcely few days have elapsed since
the ore who is to do the flying at the
Arizona State Fair, electrified the
entire world with his performances over
the top of the White House for the
edifcation of the President of the
United States.
In sending Mickey Mcclure, it is the
desire of the Lincoln Beachey Aviation
Company to give to Phoenix, the first
peep at one of the men whom Lincoln
Beachey believes to be the greatest
young aviator in America.
This feature alone will stand as the
guide to many of the other sensational
and daring acts which will be offered in
front of the big grandstand.

Mine Stocks Pay Many Millions S.

The months of 1914 just ended,
proved to be more profitable to owners
of stocks in American mines and works
than the same period in 1918, by
several millions of dollars. From re-
ports made Mining & Engineering
World is able to show that during the
period mentioned 119 companies dis
bursed dividends totaling 1876, 449$.
Had it not been for the European war
seven copper producers would have ad-
ded to this amount in September dis
bursements no less than 1900, OOO$.
Other companies cut their regular
quarterly rate from rs to so per cent.
Despite these reflections the 9 months
showing is decidedly creditable to
American mining and proves that in
times of great stress it can be depend
ed on as few other industries can.
In careful compilation of the total
disbursements of the above 119 COM
panies we find that holders of stock
have been enriched to the extent of
9O5, 925, 525S. This return is 125, $780,
316$ in excess of their combined issued
capitalize, 155, 207$.
In addition to the above dividends
there are the disbursements of the six
notwithstanding corporations. While
these companies are supposed to look
for their profits from holdings in other
companies, it is fact that a large
part of the revenues are derived from
their own operations, but for which nc
report is made to the public. These
companies so far this year have paiC
out in dividends 1886, OO3$ and since
incorporation no less than 1T, 766, 45O$
In classifying the 1914 disbursements
of the l19 companies we find that q
operate copper properties, all but two
located in the United States. These q
companies so far in 1914 paid to share
holders 1885, $685.. This compares
Mohave County miner., 1914-10-10

with 38, 27O, 115$ by "a companies in
the same period in 1913 and 28,S20, 42S$
by 27 companies in 1912.
Had it not been for the Lake copper
strike, and the present European and
Mexican wars, American copper pro-
ducers would have had the greatest g.
months period in the history of the in
dustry.
1t is of interest to note in connection
with the dividend history of American
copper producers that the total dis
bursements of the rs companies men,
toned above total 42S, 80, O53$. This is
1876, 293, 1885 in excess of outstanding
capital, remarkable achievement in
view Of the very large capitalization Of
some of the companies participating.
There were also 81 companies parti-
cipating in the 1914 disbursements
which are classed as gold-silver-lea
zinc producers. These paid during the
9-months' period %, 1913, 654$, and since
incorporation 3O6, 279, 241$ on an issued
capital of 257, 939, 952$.
Sixty-one of these are located in the
United States and during 1914 con-
tributed ID, O19, 1855. To date their dis
bursements total 222, 1853, $685. on all is

with 8, 149, 1855 to their credit for the
year and 81, 500, 1868 to date on an is
sued capital of 81, 500, 1868. When it
is considered the large majority of
these properties have been operated
but few years the result is remark
slBut five Mexican properties in the
above class have reported as paying
dividends this year, amounting in all to

Best Building in State Says Morrison.

Attorney Robt. E. Morrison, who re-
turned from Kingman yesterday stated
the theme of interest there was the new
court house of Mohave county, work on
which has started. This building will
be not only of substantial construction
but will carry a distinction no other
public institution in Arizona enjoys, all
the material used being native to Ari-
IONA, from the stone to the sand The
native stone used is of grayish hue, and
was selected for the reason that several
buildings have been constructed of it in
recent years at Kingman, which at
tract the admiration of all for beauty
and durability. Concrete will form the
base of the structure. journal Miner.
