SILVER BOOMING
 REV|VES THE OLD PERRY
CALIFORNIA SYNDICATE TO OUTLAY BIG SUM TO REOPEN FAMOUS EARLY DAY BONANZA.
(From Wednesdays Daily.)

The Maricopa Queen Oil Company
 of California, which entered this field
 over one year ago, acquiring among
 other mineral holdings, the Perry group of Hassayampa district, has
 awarded very large development
 contract to Martin Jersey, and work , begins al once.
 This move is regarded as warranted among mining men, from the early day prominence of the Perry when i, was a very heavy shipper of silver,
 the product being packed to this city, thence freighted by teams to the old Atlantic & Pacific railroad as far east as Winslow. where it was loaded oil cars for Colorado smelters. A good margin of credit. under excessive transportation and other charges, was left the owners. Silver slumping in later years led to the Perry being abandoned. and now that the white metal is being restored to fair valu- ation, market prompts its reviving.
 It is said of the Perry that its silver product i1 ounces carried to the ton was in line with the famous Peck, the Silver Prince, the Tuscumbia ami other well known early-day producers. The original owners passing away. occasioned an apathetic regard toward its future, the property in this re- spect being no exception to the gem eral rule that faced other pioneer Holdings, many of which in rece1t years have been revived and are mak- ing an excellent record. Engineers of the Maricopa Queen have favorab!y passed upon underground showings, and the terms of the contract entered into provide that the old tunnel is 70 be driven for an additional 500 feet and that three shifts be employed in the work. This development will give vertical depth from the apex oi fully 700 feet. and while the tunnel is under construction other exploration will go ahead. The reviving of the Perry under conditions as announced yesterday, is noteworthy movement, but only in harmony. with similar ac- ion taken in this field recently, in giving the old favorite mines an op Dortunity to make good with ample capital behind them, and which so iar IS known in a score of cases, has proved successful. It is this prin- ciple of mining, practically applied. that is behind the large operations go ing on at present in this field. and successfully so, and where deep de- velopment as yet has not failed in a single known instance, whether the mine was gold. silver or copper producer.

MAKING HEADWAY IN
 REOPENING OLD MINE
(From Wednesdays Daily.)

E. J. Temple, the Boulder, Colo, operator, who acquired the old Shy der silver group in Turkey Creek dis trict a few months ago. was in the city yesterday and stated develop ment would begin in the old work ings next week. In cleaning out tine old shalt and tunnels, cave-ils have been encountered, and occasioned T change in operating plans. Mir. Tenn pie stated the property has a depth oi about 200 feet, and so far as observa- tions were made the property has a very attractive outlook from q tuna- sten standpoint. It was this mineral which prompted him to acquire the group and he feels sa1guine over the outcome from determinations made up to the present time. A new equip mcnt is in action and energetic de velopment is to be carried out.

FAMOUS MINING
 EXPERT LAUDS ARIZONA

CORONADO BEACH. Cal. May 4.-Arizona is producing $500, O,GO0O00 worth of copper a year, according to Dr. L. D. Ricketts, perhaps the most famous mining engineer in America. who is at Hotel del Coronado for short visit. Every ounce of the cop per production of America has been sold up until the end of this year, so the sudden termination of the European war. if such thing were possible. would have little effect upon the price of metallic copper for a time.
 "Of course" said Dr. Ricketts last night. If the war were to end, there probably would be a depression in the copper market for while. but do not believe that it would be a lasting one.
 Never in the history of the cou1- try mas there been such activity in copper mining as is being witnessed in Arizona at present. The sharp advance in the price of the metal has made possible the opening of old mines, which at a lower rate could not be operated prohtably. This. however. do not think has a very effect on the situation, ex- cept to indicate the great activity"

GRUBSTAKE IS
 FOLLOWED BY TROUBLE
(From Wednesdays Daily.)

Charging that William Butler, o
 Canyon, whom hes grub-staked an | furnished with a complete prospect
 ing outfit, had located valuable tunJ sten claims, defrauded him out of ms
 rightful half interest in the strikes
 and was preparing to sell the claim:
 for S50OO0, L. J. Fletcher, of Mayer yesterday filed a complaint agains,
 Butler, Charles E. Price, w. J. Mar
 tin, ct al, asking that the Superior court issue an injunction against thc defendants prohibiting them from shipping ore from the claims and from further negotiating for their sale.
 According to his complaint, Fletch- CT entered into a verbal agreement with Butler, February 1, l9l6, where by Butler agreed to prospect exc'u- sively for Fletcher for various ores, particularly tungsten. It was agreed, according to the complaint, that al! locations made by Butler were to be made in the name of both parties and that each was to have an undivid d interest in any such claims.
 Fletcher alleges that he furnished Butler with food, tools, etc. for the prospecting trip and in other ways performed his part of the agreement faithfully.
 On April 4, claims Fletcher, Mar tin and Price filed in the county re- corder's office location notices for six claims in the Tip Top district, the claims being listed as the Butler Nos. l, ?, }, 1, and 6.
 Fletcher further alleges that when he heard that Butler had located these claims he expended consider able money in showing a prospective purchaser the properties and finally found out that he mad not been locat cd in on the claims. He charges that Butler, Price and Martin have work ed the claims and have shipped. or are ready to ship, a considerable of tungsten ore from them.
 Fletcher claims that since the claims have been located the defend ants have entered into some agree ment to sell or lease the six claims for S50.000 and that they nave already received a part of this amount from -he alleged purchasers, also defend ants in the complaint, whose names are said to be Ingram, Pratt and Smith.

SEWER SYSTEM
 TESTS ARE SUCCESS
iFrom Fridays pailY.l

Work of correcting the outlet of the sewerage system of the City of Pres colt, for which Ed Meek had the con tract from the Arizona Land and IT.. rigation Company, has nearly been completed, and experiments are being made this week to see whether the two new settling and two new septic tanks which are located on city farm land, will be sufficient to properly handle the city's sewage.
 According to Mayor Timerhoff and Prof. McOmie, who have been inter ested in the successful operation oi the plant, the tanks will easily come up to the requirements of the city council and health officers. The land and irrigation company is doing tlc work in order to make good its part of contract made with the city.
 Although the sewerage system here tofore has not been extremely sue cesful, mainly through lack of atten- ton, the new tanks are expected to prove satisfactory. After passing through the septic tanks the waste water will be used for irrigation pur- poses. This use of the water will keep it from Altering into Granite creek.
 The tests made the first of this week by MT. Meek have shown that the present flow of sewage is hardly per ceptiblc in the septic tanks and that the strengthened walls of the lower settling tanks will give ample accom- odation for the present city demands.
 Some time back. the Arizona Land and Irrigation Company forfeited its lease o1 the property for not comply ing with the city's contract but it was agreed by the mayor and council that should the company fulfill its part Of the contract. another lease would be signed.

MANY LOCATIONS IN
 NEW TUNGSTEN FIELD
(From Thursdays DailyD

John Burris has returned from an investigation of the new tungsten country near Camp Wood, and states that there is substantial foundation on which to gauge the excellent oppor- tunities open for mines to be develop ed. Some properties, he says, are be- ing opened. but the majority of the new locations in the favored belt are being held by the owners awaiting an of selling. This action, he says, is proving detriment, rath- CT than a benefit, toward opening up the country. Burris returns in a few days. and will begin operating a group of properties which he located
