REVIVED TIP TOP
 REMARKABLE PROPERTY
(From Thursdays Daily.)

(From 1hurSdayS Dally.)
 The first mill product of the re- vived Tiptop Heath Mining Com pany, showing heavy returns in tung' sten and silver, is now on exhibit in the show window of the Ross drug store. Scores of miners visited the place yesterday and expressed aston ishment over the yield from this old silver property which has not been worked since the '70s until about two months ago, when syndicate of To- cal mining operators took over inc group under d bond of $60,O00.
 One of two pieces of ore, about five inches square, shows the tungsten character and is computed alone at a valuation of over $l00, The other

SIGNIFICANT MOVE
 OF COPPER QUEEN
(From Thursdays Daily.)

The Copper Queen Gold Mining Co.,, whose holdings arc situated near Mayer, on the Agua Fria river, it is believed is preparing 10 resume, and the building of new wagon road to the main workings leads to this be, lief as the initial move Although a suspension of development took place some months ago, several members of the company stated that a reduc- ton plant would be introduced, war ranted by the good mine showing as well as the heavy tonnage on the dump. Paris, Texas, operators arc behind this property, and a small force is maintained at the camp, ill cluded among whom is Superintend- ent Harper.

sample is a red chloride of silver picked from the old workings and runs to as high as 10000 ounces to the ton. The average grade of tung- sten-silver ore is also profusely shown, in fact this mineral display is absolutely convincing of not only a merited property being established, but likewise is it without a counter part in the mining industry of the country.
 Remarkable Condition.
 A. F. Muter, a principal of the new ly organized company, and trained mineralogist brought the. mill pro- duct and the ore samples to the city. In speaking of the T.iptop, ne said; 'I know it to be fact that enough tungsten can be picked off the old dump in a single day to pay for the property, which is under bond of $6O,- GOO. Furthermore, this will be prov en beyond any question. The public can judge from this situation what actually and not theoretically pre- vails, and which can be substantiated by any who care to investigate. The dump is open and also is the mine.
 Absolute Product.
 "We have demonstrated in mill test runs made of patches from 600 to 2000 pounds that the tungsten is there, and the product I have brought to the city verihes this exceptional mineral condition. The silver ores likewise reflect the splendid possibili- ties of the property, and will go into biproduct. The interesting part of our exploration of the old Tiptop workings, carried out during the past month, is that the ore bodies were found in place at several points. In the old tunnel, driven away back in the '70s there was left standing for a distance of over 200 feet continuous shoot of tungsten, and this condition also is open for inspection. The mine situation, in short, is decidedly gratifying, and revelation to all of our company.
 Investors Confident.
 Submitting this proposition to a few well known mining men, for the purpose of raising funds with which to equip d modern plant, this matter was placed in the hands of (. w. Davis, our fiscal agent, and also in terested as a stockholder, and the re sponse was so gratifying that the stock sales were oversubscribed in a very short time. The next move is to install the complete plant, that will consist of a gyratory crusher, a disc pulvcrizer, a roughing table, a Diestcr slimer, a Denver roller mill, Wilhey table. and a canvas plant. This process will give a product such as is represented in the sample test runs we bring to Prescott. Part of the above equipment has arrived in Phoenix and we expect to have the plant operating before the middle of January"

PLAN TO EXPLOIT
 THE COUNTY'S MINES
(From Thursdays DsiIy.)

(From Thursdays paily.)
 The mining resources of Yavapai county will be fully exploited during the coming year if the plans of the board of supervisors as outlined by Supervisor H. w. Heap at a meeting of the chamber of commerce last night are carried out.
 About $6.000 has been spent in the past year by the board through the chamber and at the two fairs, the State Fair and the Northern Arizona Fair, in advertising and developing the agricultural end of the county, according to Supervisor Heap.
 If his sentiments are concurred in, campaign to advertise the mineral possibilities of the county will be started by the board of supervisors as soon as funds are available. The stock industry, he said, has not been advertised to any extent and should be developed as well as the agricul- ture.
 Heap declared that Yavapai is not an agricultural county, but a mining county, and as result that end of it should be advertised and exploited, if any.
 He mentioned the appropriations to the fairs and the processed fruit ex- hibit in accounting for the $6,0OO and said that in a short time with money on hand the board will be able to go ahead with the mining proposition.
 In letter received from President Aitken of the chamber, Heap says that the board was asked to give the $350 salary for the immigration com missioner since Malcolm Fraser left to the chamber and also asked that the chamber be appointed as com missioner. No commissioner was appointed after Fraser's departure and Heap said that the board could not give the back money to the chamber.
 Letters will be written by Secretary Grace Sparkes of the chamber of commerce, in an endeavor to have an experiment station of the United States Bureau of Mines established iu Arizona, to Van H. Manning, di- rector of the bureau; Franklin K. Lane, secretary of the interior; Sen ators Mark Smith and Henry F.. Ashurst and Congressman Carl Hay den.
 This action is in accordance with a movement started by Director Chas. F. Willis of the college of mines and engineering at the State University and it is believed with the assistance of the many commercial bodies in the State it will be carried through.
 Chairman E. A. Kastner of the Frontier Days committee, turned in his report on the financial end of the celebration. According to the report which was made out on August l2tn, the committee has balance of $697.5O ill its hands. Kastner declared, how ever that since the report was made so many bills nave come in that the balance had dwindled to almost nothing.
 The report is as follows:

MAY BOOST
+. FREIGHT RATES
Senator Cummins Anxious to Hit
Railroads Slipped a Cog
Himself.

st. Paul, Mimi, March 24.-Legal
and traffic officials of the railways
centering in St. Paul will go to Chi
cago Monday, for a conference with
other rail officials on what is regard
ed as one of the most extraordinary
situations in the history of govern
ment regulation of railways. r
The officials will try to determine
whether the Cummings liability bill
passed by congress gives them power
to raise rates 10 per cent throughout
the United States. =, I
i, See Severe Blow to Shippers.
Loccl officials said they believe
Senator Cummins overshot the mark
in his attack on the railroads and
put through a bill which will deal a
severe blow to shippers in all parts
Of the country.
Shippers are forbidden by the law
to carry their own insurance on goods
in transit, as they have done for sew
en- years, and the railroads are emit
tied to add an additional 10 per cent
on all freight bills.
Cannot Limit Liability.
No railroad can place a limit On
its liability. 1t is said the bill was
aimed at contract shipments Of cat
tie, but it is so general in its char
acter that it is said unless the rail
roads voluntarily relinquish their
rights, shippers will find themselves
automatically burdened by an in
creased freight rate. .% -,
r. -. Liability Limited. w., -
Formerly railroads were liable to
the extent Of the value Of shipments,
but since, the railroads adopted the
interstate commerce, commissions
uniform bill of lading in 1908, there
has been a provision limiting the liza
bility. -
When a shipper does not wish the
limit to apply he pays 1c per cent
more for transportation, which thus
includes insurance.
May Not, Enforce increase.
It is believed taht the working out
of the bill was not realized by the Sc
who voted for it in congress and st.
Paul railroad officials suggested yes.
terday the possibility that the rail
roads will not attempt t o%collect the
additional 10 per cent because Of the
fight they are making to gain public
confidence. nd
1t is also said that the additional
10 per cent would do little more than
cover the greatly increased claim &C.
counts which would result.
