 During the last month the shaft on the property has been sunk 75 feet, to a total depth of 291 feet and the work ing is fully timbered to within l6 feet of the bottom Twenty feet of the ground encountered during the last sinking was red sandstone and the re- mainder blue lime, intesely frac- tured.
 Three shifts are now engaged In sinking operations in the shaft and as this proceeds Deity anticipates the working will attain a depth of feet daily. including timbering. One shit has been started on the 65-foot level, drifting on the oonglOmerate ore to the west.
 To handle this ore a 500-foot tram way will probably be constructed d. rect from the dump to the ore bin.

PROMINENT ATTORNEY
 TALKS ON CHANGES
 FOR NEW IMAM! MINE
George J. Stoneman Tells of Inspiration Needles Copper Company. He has Great Faith in the Property

MIAMI, July 22.-George J. Stone man, of Phoenix, director and attor- ney for the Inspiration Needles Cop per company. was here yesterday in specting the work now going on.
 To reporter from the Silver Belt MT. StOneman spoke of the many stockholders who are watching the development of the Inspiration Need les with great deal of interest anu confidence in the result of the drill ing and added: "I am glad as re suit of my visit to the mines to see that there is abundant confirmation of the statement that the work Is being vigorously prosecuted
 Drill number one, which has reached a depth of l52 feet. has been changed from spudding to screw and i'll be making from 25 to 90 feet daily. The value in altered schist and silica carry from ? to per cent cop per at this depth. High assays were unlocked for so close to the surface.
 Tt has been definitely decided to put five drills on the property and the holes planned to be put down every 200 feet. One drill will be used for scouting and in this manner the ground will be thoroughly developed and when completed fairly indicate the amount of ore blocked out.
 The company has modern camp buildings and over 7,20O feet of pipe line to furnish an adequate supply of water for all future drilling opera tions."
 Mir. Stoheman then gave an extract from the report made on the Inspira tion-Needles property by Major j. h Dockweiler the we'll known mining engineer. This extract follows.
 'I noted numerous workings on the property. These workings are in the shape of tunnels and vertical shafts. Surface showings of copper are nu- merous in the sOutherly portion of the property. The copper is the same character of ore found On the sur face of the Live Oak mine of the Inspiration Consolidated Copper com pany
 @NN hht ANohAA VI Ahl and studies, it is my opinion that the Inspiration-Needles Copper company's property will develop sulphide ore similar to that found in the proper ties Qnspiration Consolidated Copper and Miami Copper company lying to the east of your property"
 The local office of Inspiration Needles has received the following telegram from MT. John s. Cook. sec retary of the company
 New York curb reported 23.00s shares traded in. Closed strong Sat urday. Big interest may take over big block All brokers are buying as they all know the property. l think stock will make big advance"
 Tt is encouragins to learn that the stock purchased there has been verv little that is offered for sale and as far as I can learn the pur- chasers are holding their stock for investment. rather than for specula- tiou" said Attorney StOneman in con clusiOn.

Directors of Copper Bonanza Visit Jerome and Talk on Possibilities for the Famous Little Daisy of Arizona

Important improvements, one of them new shaft, are being planned qt the United Verde Extension. saws the Jerome News. This was given out following the arrival in Jerome Tues day night of Maj. w. S. Pickrell and II. Kenyon Burch, both directors in the United Verde Extension company.
 MT Burch. who built the great works of the Inspiration ConsOlidat- ed Copper company at Miami. is pay ing his first visit to the camp. MT Burch is recognized as one of the worlds leaders in the construction of mining plants and works His visit here at this time. which is admitted ly at the request of the other U. " Extension directors. is regarded as being of the greatest significance.
 We are planning 8 great many improvements at the Extension" said Maj. Pickrell. Because of Mir Burch's well known reputation and ability in of the section. This Il it. of incline at the start of the drift serves as a slide for ore to run into the gangway sets. A contiguous parallel drift is them run across the orebody in the same manner. All the ore in the slice is finally taken out by this ser ies of parallel contiguous drifts. each starting on 45' incline, or slide. The sills above and any loose ground are caught up by props consisting of or nj .-t on the ground. so that should they take weight. they will rot crush, but be driven into the ground.
 The gangway sets are kept several floors below the slicing floor. They such matters we have asked him to come here and give us the benefit of his advice"
 Just what is the nature of the i'm prOvements contemplated?
 "Oh. We must have more capacity, of course A new shaft is among the possibilities
 Maj Pickrell denied that the com panv was planning to increase the mining and hoisting capacity in order to supply a smelter with ore. "We nave uOi even httlutu uflliilNtiN ihdN there is to be a new smelter. though if the ore body is anything like we think it is the Extension must have a plant of it's own sooner or later." he said.
 "Will Mir Burch select the site?"
 "Whil che is here he will naturally look over the ground"
 The sinkiny of the winZe that has been started approximately 1000 feet south of the Edith shaft. with the oh ject of proving uD the ore for a depth of at least 200 feet below the 1.i00- foot level. will be under way once more within a week. according to Major Pickrell The winze was sunk to depth of only twenty feet before the heavy flow of water compelled cessation of operations. Now a heavy pump. with a capacity of 250 gallons a minute. is being installed at the collar of the winze.
 Daily shipments from the Exten- sion to the Copper Queen smelter at Douglas now average 300 tons Maj. Pickrell places the average copper content at from sixteen to eighteen per cent.
