NlT A SINGLE CHANGE
IN PRESIDENTS CABINET
WITH POSSIBLE EXCEPTION OF
EGoRY-M'ADoo AND HOUS-
NTON WILL NOT RETIRE.

SWashington, Dec 12-Every mem
Der of President Wilson's cabinent
with the possible exception of Attor
ney General Gregory, is expected to
remain in office after March 4, when
the presidents second term begins. 1t
was learned definitely today that all
of them have been or will be asked to
keep their posts.
Reports concerning possible resig
nations have centered chiefly around
Secretaries McAdoo, Rouston and Ba-
ker and the attorney general 1t has
, been taken for granted that Postmas-
ter-General Burieson and Secretaries
Lansin, Daniels and Wilson would re-
main, and indefinite rumors that Secrc-
tary RedGeld might wish to retire to
private business were denied some
time ago.
Secretary McAdoo personally denied
that lie had any intention of resigning.
The reports in his case have been most
persistent
Regarding Mr. Houston, it became
known that the officials Of Washing
ton university at st. Louis have eX-
tended his leave of absence as chan
cellor of that institution so that he
can continue as head Of the depart
ment of agriculture. Because of the
Investigations into the high cost OF
living the other important work under
taken by Secretary Houston, the pres
ident is known to consider his contin-
ued service in the cabinet as highly
desirable.
Although Secretary Baker has been
credited with a desire to leave the
cabinet. If is learned that in all like
lihood he will remain. 1t is under
stood, however, that there is posi-
bility that he may be shifted to the
department of justice if Mr.. Gregory
insists on resigning, and that Vance c.
Mccormick, chairman of the demo
cratic national committee, may be
placed in charge of the wart depart
ment.
In the attorney generals case the
reports about his intention to resign
have been very circumstantial and are
generally accepted by officials as true,
although he has given no indication
of his intentions. The president has Of
fered Mr. Gregory a seat on the su-
preme court once, and should an
other vacancy occur during the idmin-
istration it is thought probable he
would be seriously considered again.

EFFORTS TO SAVE
ALL OIL WELLS


london, Dec 12.-The Times corrc
spondent at Roumania headquarters,
writing under date of December >,
confirms earlier though less precise re-
ports that the Roumanians have TAX
en- measures to prevent the central
powers from utilizing the oil wells In
the captured territory. The correspon-
dent writes:
"During the last week all wells, re
ilneries, tanks and other installations
in. the Prahova valley have been de
stroyed in a way which renders the
production of oil in this rich petroli-
ferrous region impossible. Great de
ports of benzine were burned. At
Morni, the most important oil field
in Roumania from the point of view
of production, the destruction was
complete"

SALOONS"
WORRY BRUNSWICK

Brunswick, Dec. 12.-Local police
authorities now have a phase or the
prohibition violations to guard against
and if the practice of bringing wills
ky into Brunswick from Fernandina
via boats continues, it may be neces-
sary for the city or county to appoint
special officers to guard the river
front.
A regular floating saloon was ar
rested yesterday, when Jake Atkinson,
a well known local negro, was joiled,
charged with bringing a boat. load OF
whisky to Brunswick from Farnandl-
ma, and only a short time ago the OIL
fcers seized hundreds of pint and half
Pint bottles of whisky from a lareg
beat which was moored right at the
principal wharf of the city, selling
whisky at retail and disposing of it at
such a rapid rate that the crowds on
the wharf attracted the attention Of
the officers.
II is now understood that there are
quite a large numbr of these small
motor boats engaged in the business
and making regular trips to Fernando
ma for the purpose of bringing whisky
over to Brunswick by the wholesale. 1t
is only a four or five hour run from
this city to the little Florida seaport
and boat can easily make the round
lrip n day Customers OF these
m,oogo' bOatc arc told nv the owners
where they will land upon their re-
turn to the city, and large customers
are on hand to receive their supply.
+ An effort is now on foot to put a stop
TO this class of whisky selling and 9TH
err arrests viii probably follow shortly.

UNITED VERDE EXTENSION

The annual report of the United Verde Extension company for 1915 shows total receipts of $54005S, of which $4S5,017 was from ore sales and $50 900 from the sale of treasury stock. Expenses were $3366G1 and the cash balance at the end of the year $211,S1 besides which $290,00O was due from ore sales.
 The report says:
 Tn December 1914, a rich body Of chalcOcite ore was encountered in the southerly end of the original five claims of the company, from which. up to December 31, 1915, 3,579 tons of ore averaging 4S9 per cent copper. have been shipped also during the same period 6.173 tons of second grade ore, averaging 17.6 per cent copper. occurring close to the high grade ore, have been shipped.
 owing to the fact that we had then no means of transportation from the shaft, we were compelled to pack Or burros this 9.753 tons of ore to the railroad, a distance of about a mile and a quarter However, we have in stalled and now have in operation an aerial tramway which has a capacity

pounds of the white metal to the ton. Silver at 56 cents per ounce would give an equivalent of $2.01G.00 per ton But the eYe-opener on the card is the fact that the ore also contains 10 per cent gold, or 200 pounds of the yellow metal per ton, equal to a value of $49, ,60S.0o. making the total value contained in the ore $51, ,732 GO. l. must be conceded that this is certainly magnificent ore. Furthermore, 1t will be readily seen that the ore carries 45 per cent in solid metals, and it's only poor and detri- mental feature is that it contains ar excessive amount of gangue rock up to B per cent. Probably this would be gotten rid of in the treatment of the ore. but of course there is the proba- bilty also of the ore improving at depth and being entirely without gangue. This would undoubtedly ia . clitatc it's handling and assist greatly in treatment. However, it is to be hoped at any rate that the deleteriOus eangue will decrease in quantity.
 P. S.-Since writing the above l no tice the card on the sample is now completely white and minus irforma- ton. The conclusion is that the val ues in inc ore have volatized Cperhaps with the thoughts of summer coming onl, leaving the paper as white pre- cipitato.

ASH CREEK

It is reported that some very good gold. copper and silver ore has been encountered on claims being operated ly J. H. Pool on Ash Creek Pinal county. The ore taken out during de- Velopment operations will be shipped tC the Hayden smelter for treatment A 25-hOrscpOWer hoist and concen- trating plant is contemplated for the Ash Creek Gold Mining cOmpanY's ground. It is the intention of this company to tunnel their ground to ob- tain depth under the outcrops. More than one lead is expected to be cut by this mode of development. This work is expected to commence within the next 90 days. After the installa : ton of the hoisting plant it is pro- posed to sink a main working shaft to ! depth of 800 feet
 On the same creek. on the Lucky Boy claims it is also stated that high grade gold ore is being taken out.
 So far this locality has received but little attention, but probably the late discoveries will attract further inves- tigation.

SILVER BELL

This old property in Pima county, D miles west of Tucson. and comprising about sixty claims, with mill smelter and miscellaneous sites comprising an area of 1.S20 acres is reported taken ever by the American Smelling X Re fining company from the receiver ap- pointed for the Development Company Cf America. The latter company placed important works upon the property. built a railroad from Red Rock on the Southern Pacific 30 miles to Laseo, and erected a smelter at the latter point which operated some time previous to the company becoming involved in diff ficulties.
 The property is recognized as having excellent merit and has shipped ore for many years. The ground has been sys- tem2tically drilled. disclosing large areas of disseminated ground outside of the ore lenze system usually mined. The acquiring of this property by the Gnggenheims means a permanent and successful future.

RAY CONSOLIDATED

Ray Consolidated reports for the fourth quarter of 1915 a production of 17,755 656 pounds of copper of which 17195,53 pounds was contained in ore shipped direct to he shelter An advance in wages and tle disturb ance of milling operations, due to the work of alteration going on in the plant. made the cost of it's copper for the quarter 9625 cents, which was con- siderably higher than t probably will be hereafter Net earnings for the quarter were $1.S07 .9S3. and after pay ing the interest on the bonds then outstanding and a dividend of 90 per cent on it's stock the company carried $1,001 ,0S5 to surplus.
 Ray at 26 on Monday was at tho highest point reached in 1916. Nearly 300,0 900 shares of new stock have come on the market since November by the conversion of outstanding bonds and by the liquidation of the Guggenneini Exploration company holdings apart from liquidation of European holdings. The advance in the stock is therefore the more noteworthy considering that it has been accomplished in the face of heavy distribution.
 There is also being considered the increasing of the usual dividend.

DR. L. D. RICKETTS,

pr. L. D. Ricketts. probably the highest standard of all-round mining man in the United States. has had the distinguished honor conferred upon him of being elected to the presidency of the American Institute of Mining Engineers, the largest organization Of its kind in the world.
 No better choice for this high posi- tion could possibly have been made, but it is difficult to understand how man already loaded with multitudi- nous duties could have one more load thrust upon him. Surely the saving If you want anything done, go to the busy man is certainly applicable in his case, and there is no reason what ever to doubt that this added duty will he undertaken with his usual pains taking efficiency and energy. and at the end of his term the institute will find it has gained much by having him. Amongst his numerous positions are the following:
 Consulting engineer for all the Phelps Dodge holdings. also for the Cole Ryan interests, including the Anaconda Cop per Mining company, Green -Cananea Copper company, Inspiration Consoli- dated Copper company. International Smelling company and Raritan Copper works; president and director of Can anea Consolidated Copper company: president and director Morenci Water company; president Tucson. Cornelia and Gila Bend Railroad company; vice . president O. the Valley bank, this city: consulting engineer for Calumet and Arizona Mining company: vice. -presi- dent and director of Gila Valley Bank and Trust company: director of In spiratiOn Consolidated Copper company and director of the New Cornelia Cop per company. Dr. Ricketts holds sev- eral other positions, among them being regent of the University of Arizona.
 This list surely seems enough for one man, but the doctor is indefatiga- bIe. He loves work and thrives on it, and he is held in the highest esteem and regard for his sterling qualities by every one that knows him. He is helpful and kindly in his nature and perfectly unassuming. Surely a char acter to be deservedly admired
