SHORTAGE OF CARS BIG
 HANDICAP TO MINE
lContinued From Page One)

some time ago had its officers not in sisted on controlling the railroad as well.
 That railroad is we'll equipped with ore cars. If the EXtensioG company carries through the Swansea deal it will have it's own shelter and it's own cars for the 30O-mile haul.
 Definite announcement regarding an extra Christmas dividend is eX- pected any day by local Extension stockholders. Inside information is that the dividend is to be s1 share.
 Adolph Lewisohn, president of the Miami and Kerr Lake companies, his brother, Oscar Lewisohn, and Charles M. Schwab, the steel magnate, have become heavy stockholders in the Cal umet & Jerome company which owns 100 acres right at the southern end of the town of Jerome and adjoining the U. V. Extension.
 A deal for a big block of stock in the company was closed after Richard Gillies, engineer for the Lewisohns, had examined the property and con- firmed the claims of other geologists that the veins of the United Verde and U. V. Extension pass through Calumet & Jerome, ground. The only condition imposed was that Gillies be made con sulting engineer of the c. & J. Con- trol remains in the hands of George ". Avery and Joe Larson, of Jerome For men of the calibre of the Lewi- sohns and Schwab to put their money into mining proposition without talk ing control is something almost un- precedented.
 Avery remains in charge as presi- dent and general manager, with John Rauber, formerly of the United Verde. as superintendent.
 A three-compartment shaft has been started On the U. V. Extension vein. It is to be sunk to 1000 feet and a crosscut run over to the United Verde vein, on the western part of the prop erty. The work is now being done by hand but concrete foundations are in for 500-horepOwer Diesel engine. 1I2 horsepower hoist, and big compressor The hoist and compressor are on the ground ready to be set up and the Diesel is expected any day.
 Locally the deal of the Lewisohns and Schwab for an interest in the Cal umet is regarded as almost positive assurance that the property is soon to be a producer On the north bounda- " of Jerome is the United Verde, which has paid nearly S40.000,000 in dividends. On the east is the United Verde Extension, the richest copper mine in the world, and now there is 10 be another big mine on her south line.
 There is every prospect that the Ar kansas & Arizona, which adjoins the United Verde on the north, will enter the producing stage soon. A drift from the 164O-foot level is following a strong streak of copper stain. This property is controlled by David NJ Goodrich, the automobile tire manu- facturer.
 Just north of the Arkansas & Arizo- ma. and on the famous Verde north fault, is the Jerome Daisy, a new prop erty. The Jerome Daisy is now sink ing shaft down through it's iron cap ping. which carries traces of copper, silver and gold. It has just placed an order for 75-horsepower gasoline en- zine, 25-horsepower hoist and air com pressor with a capacity of 800 cubic feet minute. This equipment will be sufficient to sink 500 or 700 feet and also for much drifting and cross. cutting
 Texas interests have lately become interested in the Jerome Daisy. w W. Petty, cattleman of San Angelo. has purchased 5O,OO0 shares at 50 cents and has taken an option on 50, 900 shares more which he expects to place among his friends upon his re- turn.
