DIAMOND DRILLS TO
 EXPLORE J-VERDE
 FROM VERDE-X LEVEL
Plans Await Final Decision to Run Holes Of Eastward and Determine Quickly If Values Exist.

JEROME. Dec 2 The Jerome Verde may be prOspected by means of a diamond drill from the 1400-foOt level of the United Verde Extension.
 That this plan Is being considered by the Jerome Verde directors mas been known for some time. but ac- cording to Superintendent J. B. Har- per no final decision has been reach ed. Secretary l. Mabbett Sutton has been over from Los Angeles twice of late to confer with the superintendent
 It is understood that the company has a machine in view and that drill ing will be under way within a very few days after a decision is reached. It will be set some where on the 1400-foot level and holes run off east ward into the Jerome Verde. This method. it is believed. will disclose in a very short time whether the J. V has ore
 Miners working in the Extension freely express the opinion that the [. V. Ex. ore body does not reach ov- CT into the Jerome Verde but think it quite possible that the latter prop erty has a parallel ore body which may be fully as large and rich.
 The crosscut started some time ago from the 1400 level of the Extension is still being driven in Jerome Verde ground but it has disclosed no ore.
 A pump station has been completed at the 550-foot point in the main Je rome Verde shaft. and the new cleo tric pump will be installed in a day or two. The work of enlarging the shaft from one to three compartments has progressed to depth of 59O feet

SWANSEA SHELTERS MUCH DESIRED BUT
 OWNERS ARE WARY
Verde Extension Would Like to Secure Plant Which May Solve Problem of Treating Their Ores.

Prospects for the United Verde EX tension securing a lease on the Swan sea mine and shelter are not bright at this time, but there is still chance that the negotiations which have been in progress for some time will sue ceed.
 The stockholders of the Swansea company have rejected an offer of s1.50O,OOO for their property. includ- ing the shelter. It is understood that they are so pleased with the results being secured from the operation of the mine under the direction of Er- nest c. Lane that they do not care to sell or lease.
 It is understood that the offer to purchase the Swansea interests did not come from the U. V. Extension but from another big Arizona com pany The Extension has been try ing to lease the mine and smelter. al so the branch railroad from Bouse to Swansea, which is in different hands. For the successful operation of the shelter it is almost essential that the same company control the railroad.
 If the Extension does secure the Swansea railroad and shelter it will ship its ores to that place for treat ment until it's own plant in the Verde valley is completed. It will take at least two years to build the Extension shelter. It would be greatly to that company's advantage to control the Swansea plant in the interim and treat it's ores there instead of divid- ing it's products among smelters at Douglas. Globe and Humboldt. If it could control and operate the Swan sea smelter the output of the mine would be greatly increased. Control of the railroad would give the Exten- sion its own rolling stock and it would no longer be handicapped by the shortage of freight cars.

FEELS CONFIDENT OF
 B|G SHELTER
Word Received from English Capitalists That They Will
 Arrive Dec. 25 Prepared to
 Spend 5000, ,0O0.

PRESCOTT, Dec. That Prescott will have big custom shelter now seems practically certain, for unless financial or physical disaster over takes the promoters of the enterprise the representatives and of ficers-of the AngloSaxon Smelling and Refining Company will arrive in Prescott from London, England, on or about December 25th. Their steam ship is due to arrive in New York about December 20th. The party will consist of Mir. G. G. Lemons, well known in this county. where he put in several months looking over the field and generally sizing up the mining situation; Robert l.. Service. secreta- ry of the company; Hugh Rose Group, president of the company. and two metallurgists and smelter experts who hail from Australia. but who come with the London party. The company is reported to be prepared to expend SD.UUN.NuU, UT lutltdDOGlS, III luC tph- struction of the smelter plant. with an additional $1,OOO,O0O as an ore-pur- chasing fund.
 These facts were contained in a letter received early Friday morning by Attorney J. F. Russell. who acts as counsel for the company on this side the briny. The letter also inti- mated that money will be forthcom- ing for the taking up of options upon three groups of mines in this county the Buster. near Hooper; the Bel cher. on the Poland spur of the Brad shaw Mountain Railroad. and the Cottonwood group. Groom Creek dis trict. six miles south of Prescott These mining transactions. however, are not connected with the smelling company
 The letter received by Attorney Russell also states that the engineers had already begun work upon plans of the shelter. which will be the best that man can design. and that within a few days Mir. Russell was apt to re- ceIve instructions to begin prelimi- nary work by engaging local survey
