ORE IN SIGHT IN
 TUSCUMBIA TO PAY IT OUT
(From Thursdays DaiIy.0

AAl OAAA AAhAA SAeA- ~DNAAAy"F
 Superficial exploration to date on the Tuscumbia has revealed a re- markable mineral condition, and we have exposed sufficiently large ore bodies to pay for the property" said principal of the George Kingdom syndicate yesterday, who was visiting the city on business. These opera tors are working the famed pioneer silver in the Bradshaws under bond, and this remark coming from one of the firm may be considered as conclusive.
 The Jerome mining men have been in action on the Tuscumbia for less than a month, but previously had conducted a system of wide observa- ton and prospecting OH which the present operations are based.
 This initial exploration has ended, 1t is reported, and centralizing of the work has been decided upon, where the mineral situation appears to be the most inviting. It is also stated the zones where development was done originally in the 70's have been abandoned. the expense of reopen ing the same not being justified when virgin locations at a higher elevation were so easly accessible and where the contact has been fully deter mined by recent exploration.
 The temporary camp is to be made permanent and as fast as new ground will permit the mine force is to be increased correspondingly
 The company is constructing new wagon road to the camp and supplies are leaving Prescott regu- larly.
 Prospectors are again moving to- ward the Silver Bradshaws," the old owners are brushing up in fond anticipation of their reward, while the keen operators are making ob- servations and anxious to secure Q foothold.

SAFETY DRIVE UNDER
 EYES OF THE WORLD
[From Saturdays Daily.l

Complete details for the national railroad accident prevention drive October Is to 31 inclusive have been decided upon by the director gen. eral of railroads, according to an nouncement at the s. F. ?. & ?. of fees yesterday.

 There will be l87 railroads, em- ploying nearly two million men and operating approximately 23l,OOO miles of track, competing for first place in this drive. It develops that the roads in this region (the central western) have in the aggregate ap- proNimately 325,000 employees and 55,0O0 miles of track, and that each employe is going to be asked indi- vidually to do his utmost during period of II days to keep from being lnJured hiinSelf, or DeinS the cause of injuring any others.
 The eyes of the world will be upon the American railroads during this campaign, for already favorable attention and earnest inquiry has been received by the United States Railroad Administration from the British and Japanese governments regarding the success being accom- plished by this intensified safety work
 Personal injury records of rail roads under federal control for the first seven months of 1919 as com- pared with the corresponding period Of 1918 shows approximately l5QO fewer deaths and 23600 fewer ill., juries on the railroads.

SERVICE MEDAL NUMBER GIVES POLICE NAME OF
 THE MURDERED MAN
iFrom Fridays Daily.)

Though his charred lips were mute, the body of the murdered Ca nadian soldier found on the deser, 30 miles west of Seligman ano brought to the city by the authori- ties, has revealed its identity. The man was Arthur Desteunder, who served ill the Canadian infantry over seas, and who was discharged in April. His wife, Alice, lives in Chi cago.
 Study of the fre-blackened insig, mia on the uniform by officials of the American Legion, including P. C. Grafton, formerly of d Canadian En- gineer company, revealed the army serial No. 40054 on the reverse side of the unfortunate mans victory ser. vice medal. It was through this number that Ami Cawdron, com. missioner of the Dominion, attached to the bureau of enlisted personnel al Ottawa, was able 10 furnish the sheriff's office and the Journal-Miner "ltH the Qatd I6SdI QlnS OeSteundeT and his wife.

AIM OF I.W.W. IS SHOWN IN LAW
 SUIT PAPERS

PHOENIX, Oct. S.-For a com plete file of information relative to the organization, aims and methods of the Industrial Workers of the . World, the amended answer, filed in the Superior court of Maricopa county by the Journal-Miner Pub fishing Go. of Prescott, in the $l00,00O libel damage suit, instituted by Louis B. Whitney, now assistant attorney general of the state, easily holds the record in Arizona. The answer was filed by Robert E. Morrison of Pres colt, counsel for the Journal-Miner and for members of the Northern Arizona Bar Association, which or ganization and members are parties to the suit as co-defendsnts.
 From sources including the fed eral investigations and legal actions taken against the l. W. w. ill Chi cago and elsewhere, the defendants in this case have gleaned information which they use in the answer to make plain their position as unswerv- ing supporters of the United States in the war and at all times, and es- pecially in their position as regards the activities of the l. w. w in Ari zona during the war period. In cluded in the answer is the preamble and constitution of the organization, and a full copy of an indictment, set ting forth the crimes for which mem bers of the l. w. w. were convicted in the United States courts.
 The attitude of the federal govern ment toward the I. w. w. is shown in various resolutions of congress, and that of the state of Arizona, ill a copy of the anti-sabotage law and of a resolution passed by the Arizona legislature.
 The case arose over the publica- ton by the Prescott paper of reso- lution passed at a session of the Northern Arizona Bar Association condemning the action of Whitney, then a member of the democratic commission of state institutions, in filing suit against the United Verde Copper company for one John Stan field, an I. w. w. organizer, who was deported from the Verde district in the summer of 1917.
 In support of the position of the newspaper, the answer demurs to the complaint and states that Whitney's standing as an attorney was not in jured by publication of the resolu- tions, because he was then acting III a ptivate professional capacity that was inhibited by the law creating the office he held. It is also set forth that the article in question was pub lished as a matter of news, and was a privileged communication, inas- much as it represented the acts of al public organization.
 The trial of the case will be con- ducted before Judge Samuel L. Pat tee of Pima county, the local judges having been disqualified by petition of the defendants.

LE VARR SEES NEW BOOM IN PROSPECT
 FOR COPPER BASIN
CFrom Fridays Daily.l

NTIOH fIIQdy Odny.J
 L. L. LeVarr came in yesterday from the group of 16 claims which he is developing, in the Copper Basin district, near the J. & J. properties. Reporting the completion of all aS- sessment work, La Varr encouraged by the showing wants to continue de- velopment work and leaves today for that purpose. Samples shown, taken at a depth of 300 feet, gained by tunneling, are pronounced by those familiar with silver ore as promising a real producer. Copper and gold are also present.
 In this connection, George O. Blickenstaff, manager of the ]. & J. company, which is i'll the same To- cality, is so encouraged by the six ;eet of high grade silver ore encoun- tered at a depth of 270 feet that he putting more men to work, and is fixing up the road preparatory to in stalliug heavy and adequate nlachin- cry.
 Martin Shuber, with 21 claims, has interested New York capital, a company is in process of organiza- ton and will develop a group of prospects lying between the Com mercial and Lone Piette mines.
 LeVarr is a locomotive fireman of he Santa Fe and a resident of this >ity He Is confident that the actual showing made throughout the win ter will started large sized mining boom, with this city as headquar- terS.

 There is some wonderful country inland from Fladivostok about 900 miles, and for fertile soil is un- equaled. But the natives are the worst you ever heard of in their stone age way of farming I would like to have bunch of range cattle there, for in ten years would be wealthy. It is the coming country for the young American to look for ward to.
 The only Arizonans 1 have seen in over 16 months there are Berry McVey of Globe and Thomas Frank lin of Chloride. They are sizing up the formation and intimated they may stay over there to engage i'll placer mining or quartz prospecting. But the game will be hard one to play, as the people are naturally sus- picious of giving one with advanced ideas access to the country.

THE MONTEZUMA
 DEVELOPS RICH ORE BODY
CFrom Fridays DaiIy.0

AIlOll G4lNdJ . A(oAAJ'J
 Since the Montezuma Mining com pany, near Crown King, transferred it's holdings to a syndicate of Colo rado operators, of which Van Till berg is the general manager, devel- opment has been attended with the most gratifying results, this informa- ton coming from reliable sources in the Bradshaws. The zone selected by MT. Tillberg to begin operating was in the lower tunnel of the Bear claim, that had reached a length of about 60 feet, and ill extending the workings the full width of the same now carries a grade of gold, silver and lead ore that sampled from Sl0O to $l84 per ton.
 It was decided to start an upraise to the upper tunnel of about l20 feet 10 make exact determinations as to the exent of the naturalization. As this work proceeds the showing con tinues below
 The tonnage on the dump fully substantiates what has been accom- plished, and there is to be no fur rher development except in the zone mentioned. MT. Tillberg is accred- ted with the statement that the property is exceeding anticipations, and his plan of operating is to be continued indefinitely.
 A good feature of this company is hat it is strong financially, while the management is unquestoinably of the highest in practical ability, MT. Till berg, ill addition to being a gradu- ate of the Colorado and California schools of mines, also having had thorough training in the western fields in actual mining.

proof that the authorities had iden- tihed the body and steps were taken immediately to begin tracing the mans movements. The sheriff's office has enlisted the police of Chicago to find the widow and learn all they can about Desteunder's movements, since his discharge from the Cana dian army. Meanwhile the Ameri- can Legion, which had taken over arrangements for the burial, is await ing communication from the widow as to the disposition of the remains.
 So far as could be learned off cially, the mans movements in Ari- zona are shrouded in the deepest mystery. No one has been found yet who remembers seeing him along the main line of the Santa Fe, and of course the death drama is locked in secrecy.
 Added mystery is enveloping the murder, due to the fact that no money or ornaments or any personal apparel were taken. The only mo- tive that can be assigned to the deed, apparently, is anger or revenge. Conceivably, the murderer was la boring under stress of tremendous excitement, for he took the least easy and effective means of hiding the crime Near the spot where the killing occurred is a large sheep tank in which the body could have been hidden most effectively and with much less trouble than the building of a fire entailed.

in this city he worked at Fort Whip pie, but the lure of the sea called him back for another enlistment.
 Accompanied by Alfred Williams of Jerome, who joined the same branch of the service and was as signed to the same school, he left for Chicago, stating he hoped to be up in the air when the next across continent race was pulled off.
 At the Great Lakes station the men are quartered in modern bar racks, comfortable and sanitary. Best meals that the market affords, cooked in the best possible way, ar served in large comfortable mess halls. Workshops are large, well lighted and ventilated, and are equip ped with everything necessary to qualify a man for aviation technique and practice.

 Martinez preferred the naval aero plane branch to that of the army be- cause he wanted to feel the touch of the deck again, the ocean breezes mussing up his hair, and get the salt of the sea in his nostrils.

a neat margin of profit. Incidental to its long idleness the above mining people have performed a large amount of dead work in clearing out old workings, and in entering virgin ground determinations are proving successful. That the A. B. is destined to "come back" to its old time rat ing seems to be the belief of miners from that belt and which is substan- tiated by the character of the prod cut recovered by the above opera tors. When a sufficient tonnage is mined a shipment will be made, and some sensational values are ex- pected.
