NEW MANAGEMENT
 IF KAY PROPERTY

GLOBE, Ariz., Jan. 26.-George w. Long, vice. president and one of the principal owners of the famous United Eastern gold mine at Oatman, is now in control of the Kay Copper compa- nys mine in the Tip Top district, ac- cording to an official announcement made here. MT. Long and his asso- ciates have underwritten the shares of the company and have taken it over from $. J. Tribolet of Phoenix who has been the controlling factor in the com p2ny for the last seven years, during which time he has expended s75,000 in development and exploration work there.
 A producer of copper on a scale equal to that of the largest companies in Arizona is the ambition of MT. Long for the Kay mine. He declared here that in view of his confidence in the property he has established himself in home in Phoenix and will devote a large part of his time to personal sup ervision of the affairs of the company MT. Long knows copper mining in all it's phases, having been copper miner for many years before entering the gold fields
 Immediate steps will be taken to-
 
 extensively and with the development of sufficient ore bodies will come a mill and private railroad.
 T have said before that I consider the Kay the best copper prospect I have ever seen. All mineral ground is prospect until it becomes a proven mine. But I am stalking my reputation as miner that the Kay will be a mine. we are going to put our money into the ground on that belief and am confi- dent that we are going to win.'
 The Kay mine is 45 miles north of Phoenix on. the Black Canyon road to Prescott. Although the overland trans portation facilities are good it is the plan of the new owners to have rail communication with the Capital City.
 The Kay has been a producer for years. Under the control of MT. Trib- olet, nearly forty cars of from 10 per 1 cent to F per cent ore were shipped and there is breast of p feet of good commercial sulphide ore opened up on the $50 foot level at the present time.
 It is not the intention of the new men at the helm of the company to endeav- or to start shipping immediately, how i ever. They have plans far beyond a ! small profit at the moment. They pro- l POSO eO lhOiOuSihy tAplOl t ana QeNelOT the ore bodies until they have reached a point where the erection of a large and thoroughly modern plant is justi. lied. When that time arrives, the mine will be operated to its full capacity.
 While the details of the transaction were not made public it is known iron an unquestionable source that the dea involves close to a million dollars. Tn, company is incorporated for two mil lion dollars. The financiers who hay, underwritten the shares are reputed t, be among the strongest moneyed mel in the mining investment world.

their union employees reached crisis just before Christmas, after a strike vote had been taken which was said to have resulted 9S per cent in favor of a cessation of work to enforce better ment of wages and working conditions. The mediation committees brought the two sides together in an agreement for arbitration. Later it was charged by the workers that the packers failed to abide by this agreement and the men then brought the matter to the White House, with the suggestion that the plants be commandeered by the gov eInment. The president again asked his mediation committee to straighten out the tangle.
 Secretary Wilson's appointment of an arbitrator will be subject to ap- proval by the council of national de- fense. Both sides to the controversy will suggest men for the place, but agree to accept the man named.

Redmond Musical Comedy com pany will not stage their new pro- ductcion of Tn The Bishops Carrl- age" until the Wednesday matinee performance. This offering is no doubt the most popular in the entire Redmond repertoire and as the pro duction will be staged only at the Wednesday matinee and for the three night performances only, commencing with Wednesday evening. the four performances will tax the seating capacity of the coZy Elks theater to the very limit.
 In addition to the play as draw ing card, the initial appearance of Miss Josephine Dillon as a member of the Redmond forces is bound to ere ate wide interest, for this popular and versatile actress possesses huge fol- lowing in this city and no doubt all will be anxious to be on hand to greet the deservedly popular actress.
