FIRE IN UNITED VERDE.
suIkhsads Prevent Spreading and i.
Burns for Years.
tAnaconda standard)

Former Senator w. A. Clark is con
fronted with the same situation in hi
great rich property the United state
Verde mine. at Jerome. Arizona, tina
has been a problem to the Anaconda
company for twenty years to stop 6
serious fire. A portion of the United
Verda mine has been on fire Off thirt,
years just q part of the Anaconda mine
has been ablaze for twenty or more
years.
That portion of the mine is bulk
headed off and the rest of the property
is working along as though no fire ex-
isted The fire Is visible from the sur
lace by the smoke escaping through
the. seams and openings.
What Is actually happening is that
the sulphur is burning off from the
copper ore, and the chemical action
that takes place produces heat to such
an extent that all efforts to put 1t out
have been failures. The copper that il
left In this portion of the mine is ac-
tually enriched by the loss of the sui
phur, shows the report of the Arizona
state mine bureau.
a few Years ago 1t was desired to
get some of this high copper and a
system Of mining the burning ore was
devised and is being successfully car
ried out. BY means of bulkheads, fire
doors, curtains, etc, the fire zone is
separated and the air is pumped In un-
Ter pressure. This not only serves to
ventilate the drifts, but drives the
tunes of the sulphurous gases back
nto the ground and the aid next to
he fire Is not at all uncomfortable.
True, 1t Is hot, and the rock that Is
icing worked is SO hot that many
lines 1t can not be handled by the |
'are hands. But the men work in
hese places very satisfactorily, and |
he ore Is being extracted at a profit. |
The United Verde is property with
ne ore body, bought in the sos for /
10000, and 1t is rumored that $780,
10000 was recently refused for the
roperty The ore body is massive,
bout zoo feet long by 1000 feet wide,
18th the depth yet to be determined.

iplosiyes and chemical dyes. and the

ed later.
Petroleum Makes Slight Gain.
Preliminary estimates of the total
output of petroleum in the United
States in 1915 indicate a slight in
crease over the corresponding output
IN 1914. 1t is believed that the total
petroleum yield of the United States
in 1915 amounted to 291, 100000 bar
reas, OF which quantity 1t is also esti
mated that 267,4OO,00O barrels was
marketed and 100000 barrels plac-
ed in producers field tankage during
the year.
Sulphuric Acid Increases.
The sulphuric acid industry in 1915
presented interesting development. In
spite OF the abnormal demand and
higher prices in the latter half of the
year, much of the sulphuric acid had
been contracted for or was consumed
in the factories where made. The es
timated production indicates an in
crease of 6h per cent In the three
common grades, but more than 100
per cent in the strongest grades.
Portland Cement.
The estimate of Portland cement
output in 1915 indicates shipments
from the mills of S6.524,50O barrels, an
Increase of one-tenth of / per cent
over 1914 There was a slight decrease
n production and this, with the appre-
liable decrease In stock, indicates a
more conservative trend in the indus
ry, which in the preceding few years
howed a tendency to overproduction.
'rices generally averaged a few cents
over per barrel in 1915 than in 1914
Though toward the end of the year
