Plans Under Wau
 Engineers Meeting

NEW YORK, Jan. 9. - Prepara- tions at the headquarters of the Amer ican Institute of Mining Engineers for the 1l4th meeting of the institute to be held in New York from Febru- ary 10th to 22nd inclusive. It is cx- pectcd that this meeting will bring out discussions of an important character regarding the dcvclopmcn, of mining methods in recent times and some oi the immediate problems. About 500 mining engineers from many different parts of the world will be in attend anCc.
 Since the Western meeting of the institute in September, its member ship has increased by more than POO members. In the past three years the enrollment has jumped from 4.2S4 to S,92Z. This increase Is regarded as an commentary on the devcl- opmcnt of mining in this country, the membership of the institute being limited only to those engaged in min ing, and mctallurgical engineering, geology, or chemistry.
 The officers of the American Insti- tutc of Mining Engineers are l.. D. Ricketts, president; Sidney ]. Jcn- nings, first vicc-prcsidcnt: George C. Stone, treasurer, and Bradley Stough- ton, secretary.

FAM0USBONANzA GOLD MINE IS
 REVIVED
NEW COMPANY KES OVER AND BEGINS OPEE- ATING THE OLD HOW ARD GROUP.

Operations were commenced yes tcrday by the Gold Warrior Mining Co. The property is better known as the old Howard. which many years ago produced heavily in gold, at which time the discovery created cx- citclncnt for the high grade values given.
 It Is the intention 10 continue the old tunnel for a length of 1000 feet, and assays given recently arc en- cOuraging.
 According to data obtainabIc when Howard Harlan made this discovery in 1894. from d shallow shaft there was produced in free gold over S24,- O0. The purpose of the new opcrat- orS, however, Is not to revive the property for the possibility of strik- ing the high grade ores, but to explore on broad basis to obtain tonnage of a lower grade product. The property IS situated on the State highway, II miles south of Prescott, and adjacent 10 the Senator, Big Pine, Dunkirk and other mines now active.

Money Auailable
 For Building Roads

ALBUQUERQUE, Jan. 9. - Dis trict Forester Rcdington has received word from Washington that the sec retary of agriculture has approved the allotment of money available un- der the Federal aid road act for the fiscal year 1918 to those States which arc entitled to share in that part of the fund which comes under section & relating to roads within or near na- tioual forests. The apportionments for the States of Arizona and New Mexico. which arc within the South western national forest district, are S5S,6O4 and S42.49 respectively. Dis trlct Forester Rcdington states that with the 1917 apportionmcnt this makes a total of over S202OOO now available for these two States. This money will be used in connection with road prospects, for which applications have been made from the various counties within the two States after their selection has been approved by the secretary of agriculture. It is hoped that work on the selected pro- Jccts will begin carly in the Spring.

ROBBERS MAKE LARGE
 CLEANUP
LOOT CAR IN MOTION ON SANTA FEE AND SCATTER GOODS ALONG LINE IN DISCRIMINATELY.
(Fyom Tuesdays DaiTy.)

Deputy Sheriff Fred F. Campbell brought to the county jail in Prescott on Saturday night three men who are accused of one of the boldest box car robberies ever committed in this county. They boarded a moving freight train and got away with goods to the value of over Sl,000.,
 The robbery occurred on a west bound freight out of Seligman, and one feature of the crime was the care with which the thieves made selec- tions of articles which would meet with a ready sale Their manner of operating was to throw on the ground from the moving car all articles de sired, consisting principally of boots and shoes. carpets of fine plush grade, and wearing apparel After they had secured the goods they evi- dently retraced their steps and started to cache all articles. 1t one point about a mile distant from the track was found in the brush S2 pairs of good shoes for men, valued at over S4 per pair. A bolt of imported plush carpet had been rolled for over a quarter of mile. It measured over 100 yards in length and had value of at least S3.50 per yard. The coun- try was not closely searched, and it is presumed that when full recovery is made, after an inventory is obtained from the Los Angeles houses which had the goods consigned to them, the robbery will reach to huge propor- tions.
 At a dozen points, ranging from 100 yards away to as far as mile from the track were found many articles.
 Deputy Campbell states that since carly in December up 10 the present time the criminal wave passing over the Santa Fe in his division is the heaviest ever known in 20 years.
 He also brought to the county jail another person who is accused of robbing a Santa Fc passenger of his ticket. An auto tire thief, made up a peculiar quintet Of thieves, which was placed in jail here.

WAKING UP ID |MPORTANCEOF OF
 CHAMBER
' HAVE JOINED SINCE FIRST OF YEAR; MEM BERSHIP CAMPAIGN WILL BE A SUCCESS.
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

That the membership campaign which is to be launched by Chairman H. T. Southworth will prove a great success, is evidenced by the fact that since the beginning of the new year, without any particular effort having been made. seven new memberships have been received in the Yavapai County Chamber of Commerce.
 One of the most difficult questions with which committeeman is usual ly confronted is: What do I get out of it:" That question is the age-old query of the selfish individual While to certain extent, it is going out of fashion, in this day of cooperation and service and inter-dcpendence and general consciousness or civic duty, 1t Is still with us in some form while human nature lasts. Every man owes to himself the selection of location in which he can make a success of life. If business conditions arc not what they should be in his commun- ity, he owes to himself, his business and his family such efforts as he can put forth to provide remedies. The chamber Of commerce is the medium through which the citizens of the community exercise their civic spirit. When the chamber of commerce works for the industrial, commercial and civic development of the com munity. 1t is working for all Those taking out memberships yesterday were the Prescott Lumber Company, through O. G Griffin. manager, and Ben Rvbon. AIT Griffin, until recent ly of Los Angeles, stated that busi- ness conditions arc exceedingly good and it is his wish to join the ranks Of those who are working for the gencr- al prosperity of Yavapai county.

UNION STRIKES B|G BODY OF
 HIGH GRADE
SUPERINTENDENT CHAP AERIAL GOLD MINE IS ENTHUSIASTIC OVER NEW DEVELOPMENT.
(From Tuesdays Oaily.)


 Interest in the Union mining deal which is about to be closed by D. M. Locey and Eastern associates has i'm creased by the striking of higher grade of gold ore, and in larger bodies than had been known for many years, was the information given out yester- day by E. ]. Bassett, who is superin- tendent of the property, representing the new operators.
 He stated yesterday that the zone which makes wonderful showing is on the 250-foot level which was open ed by a crosscut driven from the winze, exposing high grade sulphide ore of eight feet in width. This strike to me means nothing, but 1t is absolute as to the wonderful show ing. Since the property has been un- der option exploration has been going on earnestly. and three we'll proven mineral conditions have been fully determined The last point opened, however, is by far the most import ant I canhot afford to be publicly quoted in any attempt 70 exaggerate, hence will say this new orc content of the Union in my belief conclusive ly settles the making of very desir- able property
 The Union since being taken over by Mir. Locey has been subject to a line of large and thorough explora- ton, preceding the formal transfer, on the recommendation of different engineers. The arrival in a few days of Mir. Locey from St. Louis is ex- pected to be the final wedge in driv- ing this big gold mine deal to sue cessful close
