FERGUSON TO BEGIN
 HIS DEFENSE TODAY
fBy Review Leased wirel

AUSTIN, Texas, August 15.-Gover- nor James E. Ferguson tomorrow will begin his defense to the charges brought against him by Speaker F. O. Fuller looking toward impeachment.
 The taking of testimony against the governor ended shortly before noon to- day and the house committee of the whole which is hearing the charges then reported. back to the house until morning. Tonight it was not expected that the governor would be the first witness in his own behalf. W. A. Han gar. his counsel, has not indicated, however, who will furnish the initial defense testimony.
 Indications are that the session will continue we'll into next week.
 The last witness called before the houses counsel rested was Adjutant- General Henry Hutchings. who has just been nominated to be brigadier- general in the army He testified that "body-guard" detailed from the Tex as Rangers to protect the governor was essential in his opinion because of threatening letters received by Fer guson.

mIDDLEMARcH SOON
 TO PRODUCE LARGE
 AMOUNT OF COPPER
Dragoon Property, Operated by California People, Starts Mill With Big Extraction Record-Work Is Rushed.

Developments at the Middlemarch Copper company's property, located nine miles from Pearce, indicate an enlarged production from the mine and also in the recently installed mill, according to Ed Massey, assistant mine inspector, who has just returned to his headquarters in Bisbee after a trip through the northern part of the county.
 Three per cent ore is being mined by the Middelmarch. The ore is be- ing taken from the tunnel level of the property and the development worl, consists of the unwatering of winze off this level. When this is completed the company expects to sink the winzc further and anticipates the uncove-ing of still larger and higher grade body of ore.
 The 100-ton mill is running nearly at capacity. It is a modified flotaticn plant, capable of concentrating to about a ratio of eight to one. The first run extracted 94 per cent of the metallic content. When the mill gets into good running shape and fully lim- bered up the company expects to run TAO tons of ore per day through it.
 Middlemarch Copper company is owned and operated by Los Angeles capitalists. It has, according to many mining men who have investigated the property, great prospects and may be the opening of big copper district in the Dragoon mountains.

ASSESSMENT WORK
 ON MINING CLAIMS
 MAY BE SUSPENDED

In Q letter received by the Daily Re view yesterday from Congressman Carl Hayden, of Arizona. attention is called to Senate Joint Resolution No. 7S. which passed the senate on July 9 and has been favorably reported. with amendments to the house. The reso- i lution would suspend the annual as- sessment work on mining claims dur ing the year 1917 upon the condition that each locator shall file a notice with the county recorder asking for the benefits of the new act.
 "The report of the committee shows that the secretary of the interior is opposed to a general suspension of as sessment work during the war" wrote Mir. Hayden, although he has finally concluded to approve an exemption for the present year. The members of congress from the eastern states are usually inclined to follow the recon mendations of the secretary but with out his whole-hearted support it VIII be difficult to pass the bill.
 There is a general understanding that nothing but emergency. legisla- tion which is absolutely essential to the conduct of the war with Germany shall be considered at this time, so that there is much uncertainty about obtaining a vote on this bill. If the resolution is to be passed at all it should become law before the first of October. and believe that the own CTS Of mining claims will be safe in waiting to commence their assessment work until that date, but no longer"
 A joint resolution relieving soldiers and sailors from doing assessment work on mining claims which they may own was passed July IT. Mir. Hayden suggests that any men who have en- listed in the army or navy file the re- quired notice before being ordered away, in order to protect their claims.
