May production of the Inspiration Copper company was 10.40O,0O0 pounds of copper, comparing with 10,122,6S6 pounds in April, says the Copper Curb and Mining Outlook. The May out put constituted a high record and was substantially in excess of the management's original estimates that the company would produce 120000 900 pounds of copper annually. It is es- timated that Inspiration will earn dur ing the current year some $20.000,00O, which total would exceed the full amount paid by the company for all it's mines and mining claims, including their development, the total amount of money having been spent up to the end of 1915 being S1S,000,O00.
 There has been spese on the new mill and it's equipment up to the end of last year more than $7,000,000 in addition, but this item will have been somewhat increased by the end oi 1916, as two additional units to the originally planned IS will be set uT and each made ready for handling 65( tons of ore daily

WELL DR|LLERS FIND
 ORE BED IN COCH|SE

Parties in the city yesterday from Gleason, says the Bisbee Review, bring news of one of the largest county for a number of years. l.. M. Brown who owns ranch about two miles southeast of Gleason let a con- tract to two drillers to sink a well on his property the work was started and after the drill had been sunk about thirty feet it was discovered that the drill was working through formation that had the appearance of being mineral bearing. Samples were taken of the quartz and assays show that it carries high values in gold, silver and copper The drillers inn mediately filed several mining loca- lions on the farm and as soon as their actions were discovered there was a big rush for that section of the coun- try and now there are over fifty To- cations made.
 The work of drilling was continued and the drill on Friday was down to a depth of 230 feet and was still in the same formation. From the work that has been down so far it is evi- dent that the strike promises to oper up one of the largest bodies of high grade ore that has ever been tapped | in the county

Brown the owner of the lanC I on which he had made a homestead entry, was away at the time th' strike was made working on the coun ty road between here and TOmbston' and was not notified of the strike un til nearly all of his homestead hat been t taken up as mining claims There promises to be some interesting developments over the strike as Brow will endeavor to try and secure al interest in the find. and will take tn matter into the courts.

MINE
 DEVELOPMENT.
North Maricopa Buys Ma chinery. to Unwater Shaft and Will Hasten Work; Los Angeles Engineer is Impressed

The North Maricopa Gold Mining company has purchased rotary pumr for unwatering the shaft and will begin active work before the end of the week. Their light truck will take out load of supplies and equip ment Saturday morning Careful in spection of the property has revealed causes of optimism which the organ iZers refuse to discuss at this time, but it has leaked out that they are very confident of favorable develop. ments at an early date
 Yesterday morning they showed the property to L. C. Trent of the Trent Engineering company of Los Angeles, an engineer of international reputation and a personal friend of Senator Clark of the United Verde mines MT. Trent, who is registered at the Adams on his return from the mine, made the fol- lowing statement
 T have read the prospectus of the North Maricopa Gold Mining company in regard to the history and present condition of the Union claim, thereon, and was sufficiently interested in the | statements to pay visit to the mine and am greatly interested in the prop erty, for it is evident that a large amount of ore has been mined there from, as the history of the property l already shows, and particularly the fact that refractory sulphides are so ! rich and have beer neglected in the past. The history of the property shows sufficient reason why the property has been dormant so long.
 Every condition appears to favor
 a successful mining property Th4 | location is good. the formation strong the surface indications are all that could be wished for and I feel nc hesitation in recommending it as an I unusually good speculation, as mining
 investments go, I say this arrer 2
 very long experience in mining or
 my own account and in the interest
 of other people"
 MT Trent is not interested in thi.
 or any other Arizona property, bu
 he says that the district in whicf this property is located is so strong
 in its geological indications and ir
 ores already exposed that the peopl,
 of Phoenix should not hesitate to taks
 active steps toward it's development
 A water location was made toda, in the wash running through the prop
 erty, claiming 1000 inches of surfac, and underground flow, together witt percolating waters. Development worl
 will be steadily pushed until enougi ore is in sight to insure constant run ming of a reduction plant At tha ! time stock will be offered at an in
 creased price for that purpose. Tn , present stock issue is about sold am l the sale of stock at the present prie [ will end Saturday. Altogether tn { success of the promoters is one of tn 5 best evidences that interest is growinl
 in the mining opportunities of tn i section contiguous to Phoenix

INSPIRATION WILL PRODUCE
 s2O,O00,000 COPPER THIS YEAR

The Inspiration management has d set program as regards output, it be- ing the intention to maintain as near ly as possible monthly yield of 10,- 0o0,000 pounds of copper, the tonnage to be milled being dependent entirely upon the grade of ore treated In this way the Inspiration plant with an annual output of 120,000,000 pounds of copper will rank fourth in point of individual production, being exceeded only by Anaconda, Utah and Kenne- colt
 When directors of Inspiration next meet for dividend action they will, it is understood, order a disbursement larger than the initial payment of $1A share to stockholders.
 As to whether it will be classed as an extra dividend or added to the
 regular quarterly distribution has not been fully determined. With current 1 earnings equal to better than $5 { : share per quarter the Inspiration board will be able to make a very l substantial increase in its dividends 1 and keep well within earning capacity

FINANCE COMMITTEE BUSY

The finance committee of the tW0- day celebration is finding the people very generous in their response. The first canvass was made Monday and over S4O0 secured, with a goodly num- Der yet to see. There is need of a considerably larger amount than the above, if Mesa extends the glad hand to all visitors after the fashion of the city's usual generous hospitality.
 The donations, together with the amounts received from the concessions and the Damon and Pythias play which will be given Monday night. the 26th, and the receipts from other sources will enable the town to pull off a celebration up to the standard of the Salt, River valley, and that standard is no small potatoes by whole lot

Provisions scored a net ad- vance of 10 to s2hc, the latter in pork.
 Forecast of rain over nearly the entire wheat belt gave sufficient req son for number of attempts to rally the market Another bullish factor was the lifting of hedges here as a result of large Canadian exports. On all the upturns. however, liberal sell ing developed and caused advances to disappear.
 Cold wet weather and lack of sun shine forced some advances in corn but the weakness of wheat proved ultimately more than an offset. Be- sides, reports were current that coun- try acceptances of bids from here hat increased. Oats eased off with other grain. Crop advices remained fav. orable.
 Higher prices on hogs carried pro visions up grade. In addition, expor demand was a noticeable elemen after strength.
