MINING BOOM
 PERMANENT, Is BELIEF
CFrom Saturdays Daily.)

'
 Optimism and good fellowship were the keynotes of the luncheon given at the Yavapai Club yesterday noon by the Chamber of Commerce. Sixty prominent Prescottonians and visitors attended and all agreed that the hour allotted for the meetin;; passed far too rapidly.
 Of the luncheon itself, nothing need be said other than that it was up to the usual excellence of the dishes which the Yavapai Clubs chef pre- pares.
 Short talks, filled with vim and in terest, were given by LeRoy Ander- son and E. s. Clark.
 "We have hoped for years that a mining boom would strike Yavapai county and now it is here," said An derson. The mines of Arizona pay I per cent of the taxes of the entire State and I think I can safely say that the mines of Yavapai county pay even greater per cent of the county taxes.
 "Yavapai has advanced wonderfully as a county of mineral wealth. l want to congratulate you on this and I also want to thank the board ct supervisors for bringing Mir. w. P. De Wolf to Prescott His articles on mining, always conservative and re liable. have done much to advertise tine resources of the county.
 If you have any prospects that will bear investigation, let the worll know about them. There is plenty c money in the world and it will be in vested in mines if they deserve il. The eyes of the financial world are turned on mining"
 Attorney Clark rushed to the Yava- pal Club immediately after a busy morning in Federal court, but his speech proved that he was far from being "out of harness" as he claimed.
 Clark spoke on Mining In the Ground vs. Mining In Hot Air
 "The mining boom i1 Yavapai county" he said. "is due to the fact that the men who have come here during the last few years have done so with the earnest intention of do- ing their best to develop the mineral resources. They have carried out these intentions faithfully and have unearthed the vast mineral wealth of Yavapai.
 There have been many failures ia the mining business that might other wise have been successes. All they needed to bring them forward was the touch of capable management. Mining in Yavapai now has that touch and will keep it.
 "I only hope, gentlemen, that the affairs of our country may be man aged as well as our mining affairs. The trouble below the border inter ests us from both a patriotic and 2 business standpoint. Let us not for get our grave responsibility to the State Of Arizona and the United States and let us do our best in con tributing our support to them, even if it mean offering ourselves to the flag"
 F. L. Haworth submitted a plan whereby Hon. Nelson Darling. a speaker on civic affairs of national repute. will probably be brought tc Prescott for series of three lectures. Mir. Darling's services can be secured for the entire series for Sl50 The Chamber of Commerce agreed to guarantee this sum in case collections taken at each lecture do not total Sl50.

PROMOTER WILL BE
 EQUIPPED WITH MILL
(From Saturdays DaiIyD

C. E. Warren, who with B. f. Peters has been quietly and success fully developing for over two years their Promoter group of gold mines in Crook canyon, stated yesterday that arrangements have been closed by which a 250ton batch of ore will be shipped to the Venezia mill for the purpose of making test run IT order that decision may be reached as to the future process of reduction
 This tonnage is taken from all zones without asserting, and repre- sents a fair average value of produc- tion. Whether Notation process will be added to the new mill will also re- ceive consideration. It is quite prob able this adjunct will be required, con ditioned on the experience which oth- CT properties in that field have passed through.
 Mir. Warren stated yesterday that the Promoter has passed the stage ot being rated as a prospective producer, measurements of ore bodies support ing this belief. He said: There are from 4,0O0 to 6O00 tons of a good milling grade of ore ready for stop ing. of an oxidized character, ana while this product is being treated we will start sinking. Sulphides must necessarily come in with depth, an1 anticipating that condition. we have been going slow on installing mill ing plant At any rate the Promoter is to become productive, and will be equipped with a modern plant for treating its output

CATTLE MARKET.

 KANSAS CITY STOCK YARDS, March 20-Cattle receipts were II 900 head today, and sales were steady with the close of last week, or 25 to B cents lower than a week ago on steers, steady to strong on butcher grades, quarter lower on stockers and feeders. Killers bought the steers reluctantly, and said prices would be lower later in the week, because cool ITS are loaded with high priced beef, for which they are receiving offers rom retailers of prices lower than cost. Of course, whether or not the price is lower depends on the supply. Total supply at all points was consid- erably less today than week ago, md a moderate run is expected to- morrow, for the reason that large lumber of Colorado cattle are here ,oday. and few are looked for from hat quarter tomorrow. The cattle low coming are bringing more than owners expected in most cases, ex- -ept a few cattle bought too high in he country last week. Cattle took good fill today, many instances noted where gains over weights at home were made, which is equivalent to a1 advance of 10 to 20 cents. with a poor i'll. No prime natives were here but 'ome very we'll finished steers sold at ;9.l5 to So.30, which might have made 9.5O week ago. Middle class na- ives sold at SS.25 to SS85. About 60 :ars of Colorado pulp and hay fed 'teers arrived, mostly at SS.50 to S9.10, ome at SS.25, COWS in the shipments u $500 to s. Sixteen cars of Idaho nulp cattle arrived at $50 to S8S0, pulls $500, string of Oklahoma pulls brought S15, some Panhandle earrings to killers $S.6O Stockers md feeders sold with more snap to- lay. some well bred range stockers tt S7.70 and S7.SO, best grades Of itockers up to S85O, and feeders at $40.
 h the hog alleys it was battle for ower prices, with some success in the ate sales. Early sales of light and redium hogs at S935 to S945, includ> ng light hogs at S945. were steady. later the market weakened, late sales IS much as 10 lower in some cases, op S9.5O. bulk So2O to So45. Re 'eipts were l3.000 head, and total at Western markets was less than week ago, but the selling end of pack ng house departments is demanding over cost. Order buyers are still ;etting heavy orders from Eastern iillers, taking 30 per cent of all the rogs received here last week, a con lition favoring sellers which nullihes most of the bear efforts of packers.

that attracts capitalists and miners These ores are heavily impregnated with tungsten, copper, zinc and lead, and are at this time quite as desirable an asset as gold and silver. The mining men of the country have no; been slow to recognize this fact and to make Investments in sections of this county where these highly valu- able minerals of commerce predom- mate. Inquiries for mining proper ties are being received by the Pres colt Chamber of Commerce from vari- ous sections of the United States; and, in an effort to get buyer and seller in touch without the agency of a middleman, a bureau of informa- ton was recently established. The results are sufficiently encouraging to placing the bureau on a per manent basis.

ous sections of the United States and, in an effort to get buyer and seller in touch without the agency oi a middleman, a bureau of informa ton was recently established. The results are sufficiently encouraging tc warrant placing the bureau on a per manent basis.
 Pegmatite Areas Popular.
 The pegmatite, or tungsten-bear- ing areas, are markedly popular and were among the first to receive close attention. At the present price of tungsten quoted at Denver March 24th at Sl05 per unit for 60 per cent ore-these areas are receiving even closer attention, and are responding satisfactorily to the test of develop ment. The present price of tungsten is the highest in the history of that metal, and indications strongly favor its remaining at this, or an even high- CT price, for some time to come. Ii is interesting to note that in Febru- ary, 1915, the same class of ore-6C per cent tungsten-was quoted at S5.75 per unit. Wolframite and hub nerite ores, carrying as high as 70 per cent tungsten, are being shipped to Pittsburg, and Denver, from vari- ous sections of Yavapai county. Tung- sten mining, therefore, bids fair to be very prosperous branch of the local mining industry. It is not, however, to hold the popular attention to the eclipse of copper, lead, zinc and sil- ver-not to mention gold.
 Copper. for instance, is the highest in price it has been for many years. As result, the great United Verde and other copper mines of Yavapai county, are being worked as never before New and commercially valu- able bodies of copper ore have of late been found in sections remote from each other In yet other instances development mas been resumed in copper properties which had for some time been imperative. Yet other properties arc soon for the first time to undergo development. Among the latter is the Green Monster, said by engineers to be the best copper pros pect in the vicinity of the United Verde mine. The Jerome Verde is another copper prospect for which a prosperous future is predicted. The Blue Bell, Copper Hill, Loma Prieta, Commercial, Little Daisy (U1ited Verde Extensio1), Henrietta and But ternut are prominent among the cop per producers of this county, aside from the United Verde Copper is now upwards of 25 cents, as against its usual price of from Iz to IA cents. The indications arc it will remain at 9 cents or higher for a long time. For the reasons stated, prospecting for copper is on the increase here.

Penalty Removed.

Zinc, prominent by-product of the ores of this county, is high in price and still a'soaring. Penalized for many years, the metal has now struck its gait. so to speak. and is hailed as an asset whereas it was formerly ex ccrated as a debit. A stable market for zinc at prevailing or an increased price, is assured. It, together with copper, tungsten and lead, is what might be not inaptly called a mining camp war baoy.
 Lead, another profitable by-pro- duct Of Yavapai's ores, is quoted in the pig at from $6o5 to g per hun dred pounds. The mineral is one oi number prevailing in local ores tina; is readily reclaimed by oil-fotation or other modern reduction processes.
 Another mineral. other than gold, tfat promises to add materially to the financial well-being of local mine op- orators. is silver. Quoted at 56 cents, there is ample warrant for the asser- ton that the price will in a compar- atively short time be considerably higher It is not unlikely to be quot ed at 75 cents per ounce at or prior to the close of the European war. The silver mines of Yavapai county nave added millions Of dollars to the preci- GUS metal wealth of the Unite States, and at price of from 65 to 75 celts per ounce for silver will add other millions to their former contri ! buttons.
 Prescott and Jerome, the mining ccnters of Yavapai county. are in creasing in population and prosperity The hotels in both camps are over crowded with mining and other busi ness men, and there is not a vacant house in either of them. Prescott merchants report that sales during January, February and March of the current year were nearly double those recorded during the corresponding months of last year. Jerome mer- i chants announce similar satisfactory conditions.
