MACHINERY SHIPMENT

The Longfellow Extension Copper
Mining company operating a group of
copper claims on Chase creek above
Clifton has just completed the in
stallation of a carload of machinery.
The shipment consists of a COM
pressor, ventilating blower, engine,
tools and mine cars.
Work of driving a tunnel into the
mountain has begun. The property
which consists of 80 claims is consid-
cred one of the promising properties
in the district. Porphyry, which is
prominent on the adjoining property
of the Longfellow mine, extends to the
extension property. Chase creek has
eroded a deep canyon, affording a
splendid site for a tunnel. Cheap de-
velopment by tunneling is contem-
plated. A tunnel has already been
driven 400 feet.
This will be continued to cut the ore
bodies that outcrop on the mountain.
This will give a 500-foot back for
stopping. c. Henry Thompson is presi
dent of the company.

property and as result there is now blocked
out more than 10000 tons of high grade ore
ready for shipment.
The purchase of this property was recon-
mended by engineers when lead was selling at
four cents per pound and the present price of
lead is quoted around II 3-9 cents.
Reports on the property have been made at
frequent intervals during the past several
months by mining engineers of recognized
standing and ability. All of these reports
have recommended the further development
Of the mine In the last report made during
the past month by DR.. Walter Harvey Weed,
one of the best known authorities in the world,
the immediate development Of the property
was again recommended, based on the state
ment that ores in sight warranted exploration
to ASCERTAIN the depth and value of the large
body which undoubtedly exists. Ira B. .Jor-
alemon of Bisbee recommended the develop
ment Of this property at once and under his

FIRST ACID MADE BY
SHELTER IN WARREN

The month of April was featured by
the outputting of the first acid ever
turned out in a smelter in the War
rem district. The Calumet & Ari-
IONA plant at Douglas put out approx
mately 5000 tons of this acid which
was shipped to the New Cornelia
property at Ajo for use in the leach
ing process which has been installed
as a chief feature for extraction of
values.
AS April was a short month the
production of metal fell short of the
enormous record made in March. The
falling off was in the record of the
Phelps Dodge corporation, which pro-
duced but 16,250.0OO pounds. The pre-
vious months production was 1880
600 pounds.
The Calumet & Arizona really pro-
duced more copper per day than in
March. In spite of there being one
day less in the month, the total made
was the same, 100000 pounds.

Tom Reed History
The Tom Reed Gold Mines company,
re constructed from the defunct Old
Blue Ridge Mining company, struck
pay rgade milling ore of large tonnage
in 1909, and in September, 1910. be-.
came a regular distributor of monthly
dividends.
AS the ore bodies were developed,
the company's payroll grew in proper
lions and the population increased in
consequence until quite a settlement
had been established in the vicinity of
the workings. 1t was named Oatman
and placed on the postal map by I'm
Gle Sam.
In those days a single auto stage
served adequately between the camp
and railroad station at Kingman. A
full mail bag was an event.
Today there are many stage lines
operating in the district, as far west
as Needles, Cal. From fifteen to TWEEN
ty bags of mail arrive daily. Surveys
have been made by the Santa Fe rail-
road for a branch into Oatman.
The Tom Reed mine soon developed
/ into a Bonanza, ranking as the great
est gold mine in Arizona, in point OF
both production and ore in reserve. 1t
| has paid in excess of s2.70 share in
dividends within the past five years.
Ore has been opened along the main
| Tom Reed contact, for distance OF
more than a mile, in Tom Reed prop
erty all the way. 1t is being mined at
a depth of 1915 feet. The gold bullion
i output of the mine has an average

RAY SVEREAD MINING COMPANY SHIPS $50 LEAD ORE TO SHELTER

The Ray Silver-Lead Mining company of
Ray has just started shipping high grade ore.
The ore is going to the Ell Paso smelter The
company has developed 10000 tons, this ton
mage having been doubled by work done tue
past thirty days, making one of the largest
known lead bodies in the country The lead
IN the ore now being shipped will 90 $50 ton
and there is enough gold and silver in the ore
to pay for the mining.
The property controlled by this company is
the well-known Haley Souffrien group near
Ray, together with a large number Of addi-
tional claims. The Haley-Souffrien proper
ties are situated near Ray They have been
worked to small degree in the past ten years
by the locators, two pioneers in the Ray min
ing district. Under this development Haley
and Souffrien uncovered and blocked out over
5000 tons of high grade lead and silver ore.
Since last April in the neighborhood of $35. 900
has been expended by the present company in
further exploration and examination of the

on his Rim Rocks placers at Quartz
site with a capacity of 1000 yards per
eight hours and is saving $4,000 free
gold and three tons of concentrates

of 5000 per day. Recently Mailman
has sunk a 95-foot shaft in the deep
ground and has run a 300-foot drift on
bed rock, with the result that the low

Location of Property

The Haley -Souffrien properties are situated
some two miles east of Ray They have been
worked to a small degree in the past ten
years by the former owners, two pioneers IN
the Ray mining district. Under this develop
ment Haley and Souffrien uncovered and
blocked out over 5000 tons of high grade lead
and silver ore
Most of the locations by Haley and Souf-
frein were "copper" but this one lead and silver
property was among the most priced OF their
findings, and they held on to it long after re-
leasing their other holdings
Officers Of the company are William Ne
Dermott, president; Joseph Cassou vice presl
dent; John H. Page, treasurer; A. W. Lautz,
secretary; DR.. Walter Harvey Weed, consult
ing engineer.

OF the wonder camps of Arizona the
one, next to Jerome, that stands out
most prominently the past two years is
Oatman, Mohave county. Oatman was
little known prior to the recent eX-
citement. The excitement drew thous-
ands, the country was staked for miles
about and scores of promotion and ex-
ploring companies were organized.
Prior to the boom George Long and
James McIver, two practical miners,
conceived the idea that there were
ore bodies of commercial value other
than those contained within the
boundaries of the Tom Reed Gold
Mines company. The most of the peo-
pie in Mohave county thought other
wise at that time, thought Long and
McIver had rooms to rent.
While working as miners in the Tom
Reed, Long and McIver studied under
ground conditions, observed the dips,
spurs and angles of the vein system.
Later they quit. They obtained bond
from Joe Pariso and associates on a
considerable acreage adjoining the
Tom Reed property on the north and
west and Incorporated under the COM
pany name of the United Eastern.
At a depth of 200 feet they struck
ore and entered ore of commercial val
ne at 300 feet.
From the moment that ore was
struck the camp of Oatman began to
grow. Ore has been opened in the
United Eastern beyond the 600 foot
level. The average grade of this ore
is 81 a ton across a breadth of 35 feet.
Prominent engineers have estimated
the value of the ore in the United
Eastern at S10,000,000.

Payroll Working
The Payroll is again going under a

lease to F. L. Martin and his assoc-
ates of Calexico. The new operators
intend re-equipping the plant and have
been engaged in excavating for a
foundation for a So horse power gas
engine for the compressor, which was
heretofore run by the 40 horsepower

mining men, took over the property
has helped Oatman to fairer considera-

o'clock. A very interesting exercise
entitled Life Lines Across the Sea-.
has been prepared for the occasion.
This is the thirty sixth anniversary
