 Magma Superior Preparing
 Mar na Superior Copper company has hid men at work during the past week constructing a road for easy ap- proach to the new shaft site The company expects that it will take two weeks to get this road in such condi- tion as to be available. As soon as that work is accomplished, it is pro- posed by Consulting Engineer James to start the sinking of a two -cOmpart- ment shaft the immediate objective of which will ne the 500 foot level. At that point it is expected a cross s-cut will follow which will be continued until the Interloper vein shall have been reached
 Owing to the favorable mineralized conditions found in the incline shaft heretofore sink to the 216 foot level it is firmly believed by examining en- @ineers that the possibilities for en- cOuntering an ore shoot of commercial value by this proposed cross-cut are excellent.
 The sulphides in appreciable amount were encountered in the old shaft at depth of about 125 feet and continued on in increasing quantities to the press it lowest level in the shaft, at whi h point operations cease because of the thrush of water brought about by the firing of the last round of shots. This incoming of water, the appearance of sulphides and the later caVing of one wall of the shaft to- gether with the similarity. in all par ticulars, found in and about this open ing in the Interloper vein as compared to those existing at the Magma mine, in the opinion of examining engineers, all tend to indicate the close proximity of an ore shoot.
 IL is the purpose of the Magma Superior Copper company manage ment to sink the shaft on the Inter loper vein to the 1000 foot level. at least. However, it is proposed to cross-cut. at intervals. to the ledge until the 1000 foot level is reached in order that existing conditions may be learned and an intelligent program of development followed as the work progresses.

SUPERIOR CAMP . bE|NC PRObED BY ENGINEERS

Engineers and geologists reprts sent- ing at least three separate ant dis tlnct combinations of capital studied the Pioneer mining district s.t Superior during last week with the results of their conclusions withheld from the public but it seems certain that an nouncement will soon be made of the consumation of negotiations that mean much for the camp.
 It Is definitely known that repreSen- tatives of J. Ross Clark of Montana and Los Angeles and brother of Wjl- liam A. Clark, copper magnate, have taken an option on a promising prop erty north of the sensational Magma. mine. Announcement that MT. Clark has closed the deal whereby he and associates join in the development of the Superior district has not been made In fact those connected with the transaction are most reticent and decline to discuss the details It is generally recognized. however. in min ing circles in Superior and in Phoenix that Mir. Clark's decision merely awaits the final answer of his engineers
 Since the re-opening of the old Silver King mine from which a for tune running well towards $1S.OOO, 900 was taken years ago and the con- mencement under able management of operations on the Magma Chef prop erty that section of the district north of the Magma mine has aroused keen interest. It is Tn the vicinity of these properties that the Clark interests found opportunity to study the peology of the highly attractive Superior dis trict. It is believed final decision on the deal in which they are taking q hand will be forthcoming during the next ten days.
 Another Mining Magnate Interested
 The personal representatives of an- other well known western mining operator is now in the Pioneer dis trict making a study of the geological conditions surrounding the camp Of Superior but more particularly is he looking well into the possibilities of a property which has for years attracted the big capital of the mining world but on which it has always been diff ffcult to secure options owing to the faith the owners have persistentlv had in the district. Gossip has it that this western operator amply sup piled with millions as evidence of his Judgment in picking dividend payers. has had his eye on the Superior camp for some time and he has carried on negotiations for weeks looking to day when nis engineers might leisure
