C, w. Martin, of Chicago,
representing group of capi-
talists, arrived in Miami Satur
day night to make an exhaustive
investigation into the Steadman
mining and ore treating devices,
the inventions of w. D. Stead
man of Miami, and his mining
properties and leases owned and
controlled by him and on which
it is proposed to operate.
The fact that there is an abun-
dance of low grade ore in thos
properties, coupled with the
possibility of low operating cost
by the Steadman devices, ap-
pealed to the outside capital.
Steadman's devices came to
the attention of Chicago capt.

Prescott Journal Miner:-Belat-
ed news has been received in
Prescott of the death at Oakland,
Cal. on January Is last, of Will
liam Sanford Head, which will
occasion expressions of profound
sorrow in this section and
throughout the State. Mr.. Head
had reached the age of SO years
and one day, and was a native
of New York. He was a brother
of A. E. Head, deceased, one of
the big mining men of San Fran
cisco, and another brother was
c. P. Head, the early day mer-
chant of Prescott, who passed
away in this city many years
ago. Mr.. Head made Prescott
his home for many years, and
also was heavy land owner and
merchant of Verde valley. His
early-day life in Arizona was
characterized by invariably being
in the front line in public move
ments, and his ability in any
official capacity or public under
taking won for him the familiar
title of BOSS" Head. In many
official duties his wisdom as a
legislator brought out an able
and whole-souled man, and it is
but just tribute to the memory
of the deceased to state that he
ranked as the leader of early-day
lawmakers of Arizona. A fine
trait Of Mr.. Head in everyday
life was his genial personality,
which was always graced with a
wholesome fellowship. He was
also generous and kind, and re-
collections of his many charitable
deeds are still cherished in this
community. His death takes
away one of the truly big men of
Arizona of early days.
The daily morning oasis., 1918-02-02

men have sent him on a cold
blooded business mission. He
is to obtain information regarding
the approximate amount of ore
that can be treated in the district
by thes devices, and to get a
line on the rest Of the idle low
grade ore in the state.
Mr.. Martin states that as soon
as a local company can be incoF-
porated and affairs put in
business shape the Chicago peo-
pie are ready to underwrite tie
sthock to supply sufficient fumes
to erect a plant for ore treatment
on the Steadman properties. He
says the capitalists will not lie
identified with the propositio n
until the company has been In
corporated, as they are interes-
ted only as to whether there
is sufficient ore for treatment
md if the Steadman devices
will deliver the goods, !" When
the local plant is installed and in
operation a plant will be made i(l

4 Collection of Newsy Items From
Among the Mines of Arizona.

Prescott journal Miner
George Macarthur, a Nevada min
ing operator, who has become 8
coowner with Chas. T. Perry, II
the old Pioneer gold mine OF
Weaver district, stated yesterday
that a camp is to be established
at once, and sinking to the BOO
foot level will be the initial
development. He returned yes
terday to Phoebe to look after
other interests, and will be q
frequent visitor in thefuture.
The title question has been fully
cleared up, and a fractional
interest was also purchased, Civ
ing the new owners full control.
A small gasoline hoist is to be in
stalled and two-stamp steam
mill also will be shipped IN q
short time, for testing values and
to ascertain the proper mode OF
treating the product. Mr.. Nc
Arthur enters this field with
prominent rating in mining cir
cies of the coast, being identified
with four companies now In
action. He is investing in gold
mines solely.
Prescott Journal Miner:-A
trainload of 80 cars of copper
bullion from the Clarkdale
smelter and bound for points in
New Jersey, was yesterday af-
ternoon started on its way after
having been hung up for week
O" more owing to the fact that
an empa-go had been placed
upon such shipments destined to
points along the Atlantic
seaboard. The local management
of the Santa Fe yesterday receiv
ed orders to send out the
shipment of the Clarkdale pro-
duct at the first possible moment
and a few hours after the notice
came in the bullion had begun
its journey. According to Gen
cral Manager Drake, there are
NV but four commodities which
can be started East with any
reasonable assurance that they
will reach the consigne within a
reasonable period of time, the
four being foodstuffs, (including
cattle copper, fuel and war
munitions. Mr.. Drake under
stands that the unprecedented
freight congestion is being
cleared away to some extent by
reason of the fact that McAdoo
is using every bit of energy at
his command to clean up the
Atlantic terminals of the noun
tains of undelivered freight, and
it is hoped that another month
will see a material reduction in
the tremendous piles of mer-
chandise which are piled up in
practically every Eastern freight
yard, warehouse and dock.
