the existence Of a German organiza

HIS. CONSOLIDATED
 AND IMAM! COPPER
 WILL RESUME SOON

GLOBE, August 1.-The Inspira, ton Consolidated and Miami Copper have not yet opened but that it is but a matter of hours before they do so was ascertained yesterday. One pc culiar feature of the situation is that because of the trouble that was caused by the agitators and Wobblies many of the skilled men have returned to their respective homes for the summer while many others are bleaching it on the coast. They are only waiting word, however, ana as soon as they ascer- tain that the mines are opening up again will report back for work Most of these left because they were dis gusted at the success the Wobblies seemed to be meeting with before the Loyalty League was formed.
 Both the Iron Cap and the Superior & Boston have resumed operations, have ore ready for shipment and are waiting only for cars 10 begin ship ment. A number of men appeared for work when the Iron Cap had an nounced it would resume operations and with great many more applying to be assigned to duty, the mine will be operating with fifty per cent of it's fup complement of men, So it was announced by President F. A. Wood ward. The same condition, it was as. certained, applies to the Superior and Boston. The o. D. is now getting cars out and many Of them will be loaded from the two other properties
 Many improvements are being made at the Old Dominion. 4 collar is be ing cemented on c shaft, a new fan is being installed and on the Graz shaft a new hoist is being constructed and a gas engine installed

BLACK REEF COMPANY COMPLETELY FINANCED
 BY EASTERN CAPITAL

WENDEN, Ariz., Aug. 11.-Toronto and Niagara Falls capitalists have completely financed the Black Reef Copper company, which owns one of the most promising properties in the Cunningham Pass district of the Har- cuvars. This information has been given out by T. M. Burroughs, secre- tary of the company, who has just re- turned to Arizona from the cities men, toned.
 As a result there is renewed activ- ity at the property. Two shifts are working instead of one, and three will be put on as soon as the weather be- comes little cooler. H. E. Willhalm is in charge as superintendent.
 The Black Reef is one of the older but only partially developed prospecc- tive mines in northern Yuma county.
 The shaft at the Reef mine is now down 325 feet, and is bottomed in ore of good grade. The character of the ore is porphyry. limonite, siderite and clsalcopyrite. Drifts run at TO feet 45 feet west and 1S0 feet east. The vein held its width all the way, with the same character of ore, but showing teaching.
 The company last spring bought a new 50-horsepower Fairbanks-Morse engine and a Fairbanks-Morsec com pressor, as well as a 25,horsepower steam hoist, together with drills, cir culatilg tanks. air receiver and other important elements for work. At the camp are a superintendent's house, a guest house, five bunk houses, cook house and boarding house.
 The ground being hard, no timber ing is required. The mine makes about 1000 gallons of water every "A hours, which is pumped into a settling pond. and from there run to the cir culating tanks. Drinking water has tp be hauled from Wenden. A Ford car with an express. body hauls most of the supplies.

ANAC0NDA SETS NEW
 LOW OUTPUT RECORD
Copper Production Is Inter fered With by Strike-Trou- ble Also Causes Loss in Cur tailment of Silver.

Just how serious was the recent strike of miners is vividly reflected in the production figures of the Anacon- da Copper company for the month of July Output for this month amounted to 12,400.000 pounds, a decrease of B. 100000 pounds from that of June, which was also poor month for the company, and a loss of 1S,900,000 pounds when entrusted with the high est output this year. This is the low est production for any one month in the past several years.
 For the first seven months of the current year output totals 175,O50, 900 pounds against 192, zoo 900 in the same period last year, drop of f7,650,00O pounds.
 Judging from present indications it appears rather dubious to expect that production will be in excess of 1916, when SS6,900,50O pounds were pro- duced The shortage of labor preva- lent throughout the mining districts is an important-factor in retarding out put, and which shows no signs of i'm proving.
 The strike came at an inopportune time for Anaconda, for besides being the premier copper producer in the country it is one of the largest silver producers. As silver is selling around the highest levels in the past 25 years, the strike seriously interfered with the company in taking advantage of the high price in marketing all its sil- yer output.
 It is decidedly annoying to stock holders to see production seriously curtailed at a time when both copper and silver are selling at such high prices and ready market for every available pound.
 While share profits will have to be marked down from previous estimates, it is not expected that they will be as heavy as was first anticipated.

DAVIS DAILY SHIPPING % TONS MANGANESE
 TO MILL EVERY DAY

BUTTE. August Butte-Detroit mill is now running on manganese ore furnished by the Davis Daly O., and Britannia Butte Mining Co. Changes in the mill were made in the time set, although considerably handicapped during the past month by strike con ditions.
 The manganese concentrates pro duct from the mill is better than the grade of concentrates produced in the experimental tests made early in June the concentrates carrying approximate iy 49 per cent manganese.
 Production has been started with 5O tons Of manganese concentrates per day and as expeditiously as pos sible this will be increased up to 250 tons per day. The coarse and fine crushing departments of the mill can handle up to 500 crude ore in 24 hours.

UTAHS PRODUCTION OF P0RPHYRIES IS
 FEATURED BY GAIN
June Output, 19,909,09
 Pounds, Is Highest Since October Nevada Proper ties Register Sharp Decrease

Production of the porphyries for the month of June was again featured by the sharp increase in Utah's pro duction when compared with that of May. For the month of June produc- ton amounted to 19,909,097, as com pared with that in May of 19,212, ,S56, an increase of 696,241 pounds, and a new high mark for the present year. When compared with the same month last year, production this year regis ters an increase of 2,031,665. The June production was the highest since last October, when 20,325,520 pounds were produced.
 Chino, like Utah, established a new high figure for June with .7,193, ,262 pounds, an increase of POS, sos over that of May, but decrease of 50,S56 from the same month last year.
 Although Utah and Chino made sat isfactory gains, Ray and Nevada fell substantially below production of May, Ray recording a decrease of 401, ,167 pounds and Nevada a decreaes of 379,- PO0hNo.
 There is every indication that for the full 1917 year not only will Utah hang up a new high mark for pro- duction, but by a wide margin over that of 1916. For the half year total production now amounts to 91,239,7 ,7S1 pounds, in comparison with S4,903, PAT for the same period in 1916, an in crease of 6,336,534 pounds, and 24,02S,- 961 over that of 1915.
 Although Ray Consolidated's produc- ton for June showed a falling off from the previous month, for the hali year it is 10.903,00 pounds ahead of the same period last year, and Chino s gain is 5,5S5,07O. Nevada, however, is a laggard, total production for the half year being S9,66O,O0O against 43,34S,- 900 in 1916, a decrease of 3,6SS,O00.

TYRONE, N M, TO BE MODEL MINING CAMP
 OF THE SOUTHWEST

J. Kenyon Burch, the well known construction engineer, arrived in the city today from Tyrone, N. M., says the Douglas International, where he had been to look after some of the construction work in that town where is being built the model mining camp of the southwest, according to MT. Burch. This camp is located amid the pineclad hills of New Mexico, and was planned by a distinguished architect of New York. Many of the principal buildings have been completed and others are well under way, including a bank building
 MT. Burch will remain in Douglas for several days, as he is acting in a consulting capacity for the Phelps Dodge corporation and is aiding in the preliminary work of the new concen- trator to be erected in the Warren dis trict. He has been building concen- trators in the southwest since 1903 when he began the construction of the present concentrator of the Detroit Copper company at Morenci. His next work was the building of the Mocte- yuma Copper company concentrator at Nacozari, Mexico, during the days when J. S. Douglas was general man. ager of the Phelps Dodge interests in Mexico. Finishing at Nacozari, MT. Burch went to the Globe district where he built the mill for the Miami Copper company. His next engage ment was superintendent of construc- tion for the Inspiration Consolidated company and was there for several years and until the great mill of that company, the largest in the country, was successfully put in operation.
 Mir. Burch is one of the directors Oi the United Verde Extension company at Jerome, and is giving some special attention to the erection of the new shelter for that company. He said this morning that the new Jerome shelter preliminary work was now about all done, the railroad connection has been completed and that material is arriving on schedule time so far If no interference occurs not now ex pected it is hoped to have the Exten sion smelter ready for operation be fore the first of next April. This smelter will have a capacity for han ding 500 to LOCO tons of ore daily, de pending on it's quality.

.SHATTUCK DISCLOSING
 NEW HIGH GRADE ORE
Net Earnings of Local Prop. erty During First Half of Present Year Totaled More Than Million.

Administrations Copper Company's s net earnings for the first half of 1917 amounted to S1,356,S91.41. The rate per share per year is $7.75.
 Production at the Shattuck was ob- tained for 75 working days during the quarter ending June 31, at the rate of 52S dry tons of copper ores and 19 dry tons of lead ores mined per work ing day. The strike, and conditions immediately preceding same, caused quite slump in the tonnage mined, and the lead shelter limited to out put of the lead ores. Net earnings for the second quarter were S66O,- 732.O5.
 Shattuck has disbursed to stock holders total of s5,959,0O0 in regular and eight extra dividends.
 The Shattuck mine maintains it's record for disclosing high grade ores, as indicated by the following, from jhe second quarterly report under date of June 30:
 ~On the Copper Rock Claim, at the 200-foot level we continue to develop ow-grade lead-zinc sulphide ore which will eventually be concentrated in our proposed new lead milling plant A new ore body of high-grade copper lead-silver ore was opened upon the Iron Prince claim in the intermediate level from PA raise. This new ore was exposed for length of 36 feet with both sides and face continuing in high-grade ore. The copper ore assays IS per cent copper, g ounces silver and s1.20 in gold per ton. The lead ore assays q per cent lead and 6 ounces silver per ton.
 Small ore showings were encoun- tered on thhe 400 and 500 foot levels. On the 600 foot level promising new ore body was found in the east end Of the Leo claim where a cross cut cut 2S feet of 6 per cent copper ore in an iron gangue. This ore body is in new territory, and is especially promising. Another crosscut on this level has exposed 17 feet of 5.S per cent copper Il an irregular chimney of ore. Be tween the 600 and 700 foot levels, in termediate levels opened up d good body of per cent copper ore. On the POO foot level further addition was made to the tonnage of per cent cop per sculphide ore in the Copper rock claim. a raise proving an additional length of 60 feet to this ore body"

Men supplied with sacks have sailed from Seward for SteDoval bay and Unalaska to gather volcanic sulphur. which, carried down the volcano's side by glacial action, is stacked in piles at the foot of the mo- rain and needs only to be sacked and shipped. The increased price of sul- phur due to the war makes shipment of Alaska sulphur profitable in spite of the high freight.
