SHAFT DOWN TO 500
 LEVEL AT A. C. & M. co.
(From Sundays Daiiy.)

Mining men who yesterday visited the property of the Arizona Copper and Mining Corporation state that the shalt is nearly down 10 the 500 level and that the plans of President and Manager \. W. Davis, arc to begin crosscutting and drifting at that level.
 The perpendicular shaft is going down in the hanging wall side of the vein. and is gradually crossoutting the formation. In the sinking Of the 40 feet. now attained, several bodies of various grade ore have been passed through, showing values Of from IF per cent to per cent across the cn- tire formation cut through. Mir. Davis plans 10 crOsscut the entire zone which is over 800 feet wide, and feels more confident than ever that his company is in line for bringing in a producer worth while.
 All recent visitors to the property have been so pleased with the out look. and many SO surprised at the splendid surface showing that the, wonder that it had escaped the no- ticc of inc copper magnates up to this time. They say it has exactly the same indications as many of the other great mines in the Arizona schist belt, which extends at least through this section from Jerome to Blue Belle. They see no reason why this property should fail to make one of the great mines of the State.
 This is another proof that Navapai county is all right and backs up the statements of the substantial and slauuch friends of the mining indus ,ry here that old Navapai requires only the partnership of capital to make her rise still higher in Arizona's list of great copper counties.

NEW JAIL ID BE OCCUPIED IN
 } WEEKS
WORK OF ERECTING ONE SET OF CELLS IS ABOUT COMPLETED AND MEN ARE TO BE TRANSFER RED IN A SHORT TIME.
(From Tuesdays Daily)


 Work on the interior of the new county jail has progressed to 3 point where 1t is now believed that the prisoners can be changed over into the new quarters in about three weeks. Twelve of the cells, equal in size to the quarters now occupied Tn the old jail, have been set up, and as soon as the plumbing has been ln- stalled, the change can be made. When the old jail is vacated, the cells now in use will be shipped to St. Louis and cut down to fit the new jail, and when these are installed, ac- commodations will be ready for AS male prisoners and nobody will be crowded under the new arrangements.
 The cells are on the third floor of the new county building, and O. A. Bauman, construction superintendent of the Pauly Jail Building Company of St. Louis. has been here for the past several weeks experimenting the erection of the cell tiers. The new jail will be much more sanitary and conveniently arranged than the old layout. Being located high in the air. it will be pretty near an im- possibility for a prisoner to get out of the place, especially in view of the fact that in the new place the men will not be allowed outside their cells except on a few occasions when they will be closely watched.
 One cell is being specially fitted up for insane prisoners, and the walls and floor are being heavily padded. A dark and nearly air-tight cell, 4X5 feet in size, has been left as pun ishmcnt cell. The size of the place Is such that a man cannot lay down at full length, and the only way he can stretch out will be to stand upright. Cases often arise where 1t Is neccs- sarv to conine five or six men in a cell of this size, and in all probabil- ity after such a siege in a dark and unattractivc cell of this sort, pris- oncr or bunch of prisoners will quite likely be willing to do whatever the jailOr tells them to do in order to obtain their release from the punish mcnt cell \ shower bath IS also one of the features of the place, and a large kitchen located nearby will permit the meals to be cooked right on the spot. The detention room for the female prisoners Is located just north of the main jail. Here will be accommodations for about a dozen lady lawbrcakcrs, and in all probabil- ity there will always be several of the girls locked up because the United States court recently entered into a contract with the county to take care of the women who are under court sentences.
 The Pauly Jail Building Company, is, according to the statement of Mir. Bauman, the only firm in the world which does nothing but build and in stall jails and lock-ups of all sorts, the founder of the firm having been a blacksmith who many years ago thought out some rather advanced schemes of jail building and died sev- cral months ago, many times a mil lionaire as a result of his genius

State May Insure
Ice Men a Market

Governor Whitman conferred yes
terday with Ex-Governor Odell over
the proposal that the state harvest ice
along the Hudson and Mohawk and so
avert possible ice famine next sum-
mer. The Governor also saw Senator
Wagner, William R. Wilcox, chairman
of the Republican National Commit
tee, and Mayor Hylan, the latter at the
reviewing stand at Forty-second Street.
All OF the conferrees talked ice. As =
result OF the exchange of views. the
situation is as follows:
Senator Wagner's bill, authorizing
the state to engage in the harvesting
OF natural ice, will be put through
without delay. 1t may be amended to
safeguard the states interest. The
companies handling natural ice have
informed both Governor Whitman and
Mr.. Odell that they are willing to in
crease largely their harvest of natural
ice, and will be grateful for the states
cooperation.
This "cooperation," it is understood,
means an agreement that if the com
panies go to heavy expense to cut a
large amount of natural ice and are
lett without market next summer
through a sudden termination of the
war, thus enabling the artificial ice
men to resume the use of ammonia.
then the state must stand ready to re-
lmburSe the companies

Soviets To Be Formed
Workmen's Organizations
Will Be Established in
Centres of Population

For unadultcrated strategy in swat
ing the enemy, Bolshevik of the
united States are a few vcrsts, to saw
the least, ahead of their brethren in
Russia, who staged the coup d'etat
against Kerensky.
Inc First Russian Colonial Congress.
IN session yesterday on the fourth day
OF It's convention in Beethoven Hall.
-io fl1th Street, produced substantial
proof that Trotzky had better look to
his laurels
Under a fresh burst OF power the
bolshevikian "steamroller" got away
to an carly and irresistible start in the
opening hours Of the session and, be-
fore the 6 o'clock whistle called it a
day for the delegates from the work
mems organizations represented, had
flattcned Mensheviki, anarchists. mod
crates, social revolutionists and "citi-
zens." All without regard for the
feelings of the victims.
ALuAtOIS stage AOuO
The coup came when the convention
voted for members of the executive
committee, which is destined to handle
all the problems of Russian natives in
this country. The committee has nine
teen members and is to have an official
newspaper.
or course, it is hard to conceive that
there would be connection between
the exploitation of a newspaper and
the move to make Russia safe for the
prolctariat, but, somehow or other, the
editors of tho "Novy Mir" Russian
publication of this city, who are Boil
sheviki and who made the arrange
mcnts for the convention, were the first
members of the committee to be
chosen.
Immediately there were whispers of
disconten. throughout the hall The
anti-Bolshevik element protested in
vain. The gavel was brought into play
by the Bolshevik chairman, and the
victims for the first time learned why
Kerensky didn't have chance.
Plans were formulated for the or
ShHlZAtlOIl VI lne RUSSIAN colonies. and
then the delegates began discussion
of medical aid for poor Russians IN
the United States. Charlatans were
denounced and attention was called to
the fact that the Russian worker is
more susceptible to ills than any other
immigrant because Of the work he is
called upon to do

1t was decided late in the Afternoon.
that the workmen among the Russians
in this country are to be classed in
dividually in soviets to be established
in various centres Of population. Then
the question arose as to just what a
workman is. The answer, given by a
sincere Bolshevik from the centre oil
the floor, is:
"Any Russian who is not a CAPT
talist"
