Warm weather, uncertain bid and ask prices on many stocks and wild reports of sensational drops in cop per have all failed in turn to affect the mining industry in Yavapai coun- ty and have served only to show on what a firm basis the game now is in Arizona. Conditions in this county have been steady the last few days, with but one startling occurrence, a reported strike on the Pittsburg- Jc- rome property. Immediately after the report was heard in Jerome officials of the company refused to answer any questions. The strike is said to be an unusually good one.
 Actual Mining On Dundee.
 The shaft of the Dundce-Arizona property at Jerome is now down moro than 300 feet and sinking is being pushed at the rate of five feet day. James A. Hubbard, a pioneer mining man, is in charge of the development work on the Dundee The Dundee, formarly known as the Greenhower, lies on the south side of the Hog back, and just at the eastern edge of Jerome, within a few hundred feet of the workings of the United Verde EX- tension. Between the two lies that part of the Jerome Verde that is un der development.
 Only two claims are included in the Dundee property, but the surface in- dications are among the best in the district. Work on this property will go ahead rapidly, with three shifts of men a day A blanket of carbonate ore over the property has already been developed and zone of rich conglomerate orc has been cncOun- tered near the surface.

 Two Mines Taken Over.
 The Big Ledge Development Com pany has taken over the Gopher group of patented claims, near Me Cabc, the Blackberry mines and the old Boggs smeltcr, near the Hack berry property. The purchase of the Gopher was brought about largely by the good showing of the Henrietta mine. adjoining it on the north which is operated by the Big Ledge people The old smcltcr is to be modcrnized and thoroughly ovcrhaulcd for treat, ing the products of all interests own cd by the purchasers. Both the Go pher and Blackberry properties arc at tractivcly rated in gold and copper.
 Still Good Mine.
 Recent exploration in the old Sen ator mine has resulted in new and valuable ore bodies being proven. Tn the zone where the Treadwcll vein was penetrated a large tonnage was opened up, giving values of $50 in gold and copper. The strike occurred at point 2.5O0 feet in on the old tun- rel. The Senator, one of the units of the Commercial Mining Company, was believed to have been worked out years ago. Another claim of the group, the Snoozer, IS shipping daily to Douglas a large tonnage of high grade copper.

CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, Nov. 2S-Rai ilroad em- l bargoes and marine perls that threat ened to bring to a standstill shipments
 of grain led to a semi-panic in the wheat market today. Exciting breaks ! in values, as much, at one time, as 13s cents a bushel were followed by partial rallies. The close neverthe- less, was at s166 to $1.67A for De- cember and $1.74h to $1.75 for May,
 with the market as a whole five to
 seven and X cents under yesterdays finish. Other leading staples, too, also showed setback-corn 2c to 2% 0D2Rc, oats 212 to Sc. and provisions 10 to BOG. In the last hour the fall in prices became of an extraordinary character. The fact that buying orders seemed all
 most to have vanished brought traders
 to sudden realization of what was d | virtual embargo on railroad transport | Of grain to the seaboard. One after
 another, of late. the railway lines have 1 been giving notice that temporarily
 grain shipments could not be accept
 ed. Today this proceeded to such an
 extent that nearly all roads east from Chicago were shown to be involved in a general congestion.
 l In the last thirty minutes the wheat crowd threw holdings on the market with a reckless energy that seldom has been equalled.
 l Prices fluctuated as much as four
 cents at a time. and the pit was near | ly bedlam. Wheat was in some cases as low as sl.3Sh.
 i Restrictions on shipping affected
 corn and oats equally with wheat. but
 the liquidation did not draw out the half frenzied eagerness shown in wheat | Provisions gave way chiefly owing i 10 weakness in the hog market Ar
 rivals of hogs throughout the west were greatly in excess of the number on the l corresponding day a year ago.

Secretary of State Millsaps served
notice on Socialists, through the press,
that nomination papers from seven
parishes, through which the party
seeks to have a state ticket appear on
the ballots of the April election, are
defective. The defect lies in the in
formality of the certificates OF regis
tiers Of voters which accompany the
papers and will render the papers In
valid unless steps are taken to rene
dy the condition.
The Socialists have approximately
200 signers more than the 1000 sign
ers which the law requires must be
affixed to the nomination papers, but
il errors in the papers from seven of
the parishes are not corrected, th2y
will have only one-half that number.
The parishes from which the defec'
tive papers have come are: Lincoln,
Franklin, Livingston, Bienville, Caddo,
IBERIA, Cacadia. They contain total
Of CTS names. The socialists have
filed nomination papers from Vernon,
Jeff Davis, Bossier, Beauregard, Yer
million, CaICasieu, East Baton Rouge,
Rapides, VIM, Red River La Sale
and Grant, containing a total Of OH
names, about which there is no ques'
ton.
Secretary of State Millsaps, upon re-
ceipt of the defective papers, referred
the question of their validity to the
attorney general The latter held that
inasmuch as the defect was due 10
the register of voters and not to the
signers. the errors may be remedied.
Mr.. Millsaps asks interested per
sons to see him further about the
matter.
The Socialists VIII put out the fol
lowing ticket: For governor, Horace
Noonan; lieutenant governor, N. f.
Chatham; secretary of state, R. B
Kennedy; state auditor, W. E. Dietz;
state treasurer, NJ. McMGnus; attor
ney general, E. Vidrine; superintend
ent Of education, c. H. Shell.

for parish and ward officers which
have been filed with the secretary 81
state are defective. Some are so radi
cally faulty that they have been re
iected. Others have been brought L
