BARBEE INDICTED
 FOR EMbFzzLEMENT

H. H. Barbee, who organized and secured finances for the Cactus Queen Copper company, has been indicted by the Yavapai county grand jury on a charge of embezzlement. The charge is the outcome of friction in the com pany, Barbee having been the manager at the mines and having spent the treasury funds leaving the company quite heavily in debt. Barbee had secured all the claims, and the estate is a most extensive one, but refused to allow the men who financed the company to secure control. It is probable that control of the company is the real issue, and it is to be hoped that it will be settled in some way that will allow of the property being worked.
 The property of the Cactus Queen mining company is situated on the Bill Williams Fork, in this county. It consists of about 150 claims and practically all show good copper ore bodies. Shafts, drifts and open cuts have exposed immense naturalization. In the bottom of 150 foot shaft the ore body has been crosscut more than 300 feet without bringing any walls into view. It is claimed by the rep resentatives of the company that the lowest assay taken from this crosscut gave better than six per cent copper, together with some gold and silver. The mines have been equipped with rather good machinery, but the com pany's intention was to put on still larger machinery and develop the pro- perty to a depth of 1000 feet. This program was interfered with when Barbee refused to give the moneyed men the representation in the affairs of the company that they believed they were entitled to. The refusal of Barbee to give control of the pro- perty to the fnanciers was one of the stumbling blocks in the way of suc- cessful financing. A few years ago oil men offered to furnish all the money that was needed, taking stock of the company at a certain price if Barbee would consent to set aside the entire treasury for them to work on, and at the same time offered to take over the greater part of Barbee's hold ings for big sum. The offer was re- fused, as was many other offers of like import. Barbee is unable to handle the property himself and it is condition growing out of his try ing to finance himself as we'll as the property that has caused his arrest on the charge of embezzlement.

UNITED EASTERN co.
 RETURNS DIRECTORS

The stockholders of the United Eastern Mining company met at the offices of the company in Oatman last Monday to elect officers for the en- suing year and to consider matters of vital importance to the company inter- ests. Among other matters, we un- derstand that a report from the en- gineers on a consolidation proposi- ton with the Tom Reed was taken up and discussed. It is said that there was such wide divergence in the pro posals of the engineers of the two companies that no basis for merger was decided on. The old board of di- rectors was reelected.
 The merger of the Tom Reed and United Eastern companies has been the subject of discussion in Oatman the past year and it was hoped that solne basis could be agreed upon for set clement of the difficulties that have cropped up. A thorough sampling of the two mines was undertaken by a corps of competent engineers and it was upon the report of these men that it was believed an amicable un- derstanding could be arrived at. The matter of the merger is still under consideration and will probably be further considered at the annual meeting of the Tom Reed sharehold- CTS next month.

TON0PAH OPERATORS AND MINERS AGREE
 ON NEW WAGE SCALE

The mine operators and miners of Goldfield, Tonopah and Divide have at last agreed upon wage scale that appears to be satisfactory to both par ties. The basis of settlement is an increase of fifty cents a day in wage, instead of the bonus system that was put into effect some months ago. This agreement is to stand for a year and may be extended further if it is assented to by the parties. The reason for the increase was the high CT cost of living and the lack of ac- comodations at the camps, although Tonopah and Goldfield are well regu- lated and have plenty of housing room and restaurants to feed the hungry. Divide lacks these features, hence the big strike of a few months ago. An other proposition that was put up to the companies was a commissary to cut the living costs, in which event the men would not stand out for in- crease, but under the agreement the men have consented to forego the com idea and take the fifty cent raise in lieu thereof. Peace now reigns in that region.

WASHINGTON MINE AT MINERAL PARK
 AGAIN WORKING

F. E. G. Berry, who has been in San Francisco for some time, returned home last week and expects soon to have matters at the Washington Ari- zona mines under way. The company that was organized some time ago to operate the mines has been reorganiz- ed and sufficient capitalization has been secured to put the mill and min es in shape to produce on a large scale. The company is the Mineral Mining and Milling company, with capital of 100000 one dollar shares.
 The Washington mines have been opened to considerable depth by shaft and tunnel and good bodies of mill ore have been opened. The company purpose sinking to a depth of several hundred feet below the tunnel level and carry laterals into the ore bodies to the north. The mine and mill are electrized and fitted up for economi- cal operation.

GOLD BUG PROPERTY
 TO BE SOLD UNDER
 AUCT|ONEER'SHAMMER

The Gold Bug property, over in the Minnesota district, is at last to be sold under the hammer, the company having passed into innocuous desseu- tude. The sale of the estate of the company is the result of a suit of Mrs. Ellen I. Crosby, of Colorado Springs, Colorado, who obtained an order of dissolution against the company for the purpose of settling up it's indeb- tedness. The sale will be held in Colorado Springs on the 8th day of next April.
 The Gold Bug was discovered a number of years ago by Dec Malcom, w. G. Stewart and Thomas Sterling. Malcom disposed of part of his inter- est to Harley Fay and the mine, with but a ten foot hole on it, was sold to MT. Crosby, of Colorado Springs. A company was organized and shafts sunk on the property to a depth of 400 feet, but the vein faulted and no great effort was made to pick it up. The surface ores were wonderfully rich. Specimens are now to be seen in the collection of H. H. Watkins, which are among the prize winners of the state. Crosby built mill on the Colorado river and it was operated for some time with indifferent re- suits. Later MT. Marmien of Bos- ton took the property over but failed to make good. There is undoubtedly a mine there, and under competent engineering management the fault sy- stem could be doped out and the big vein made to yield handsomely.
 Malcom, who discovered the proper ty, committed suicide in Kingman; Harley Fay died in San Francisco a few years later; Stewart died in Utah, and the only survivor is Tom Sterling who resides at Leeds, Utah, where he is engaged in farming and cattle rais- ing.

LOOKING OVER
 PROPERTIES HERE

E. T. Perkins of Chicago spent a few days here looking over some min ing properties on which he will re- port to his associates back east. He represents one of the large mining corporations of the country and it will mean much to this district if he should become interested.
 A good many years ago he was with the U. S. G. s. in this part of the state and wrote one of the first mon- ographs on the vein system of the County. Mount Perkins which was named after him nearly 36 years ago, can be seen from anywhere west of the Cerbat range and is one of the prominent mountains in the river range.
 He said that he expected to make his next trip in a flying machine as the first time he was here he travelled with a pack train, and again IS years later with a blackboard. This time it was an automobile, and so the West does progress.
 He was in conference with Capt. Gibson most of his stay here.

LELAND
 FOR DEVELOPMENT

Col. S. R. Porter, who has been in Los Angeles the past month, reports that the LelandMitchell group of mines is to be equipped with new ma chinery for the purpose of exploring the ground recently opened by the deep working shaft. The shaft was sunk on the Mitchell claim and reach es down toward the connection of the two veins, at a depth of 700 feet, al though it has not been given out that the connection was made. The. shaft should reach depth of about 15O feet below the Old tunnel level of the Le- land and it is probable that connection will be made by an upraise to the old works. The new equipment will make possible the development of the mines on a large scale and enable the com pany to extract the ore at low cost.

CONSO[|DATION OF
 BLACKBERRY CON.
 AND SENATE SILVER

That there will be a consolidation of the interests of the Blackberry Con. Mines Company and the Senate Silver is now a foregone conclusion. Some of the principal shareholders in the Blackberry have signified their will ingness to turn their interests over to the new company and a settlement is now in progress covering the holdings of all the large shareholders. Within the next thirty days it is expected that complete arrangements for the merger of the two companies will be complet- ed.
 The interests of the two companies can be best subserved by the consoli- dation. The overhead expense will be greatly curtailed and the two mines can be developed through the one big shaft. The shaft of the Senate is down 300 feet while the shaft of the Blackberry has reached depth ot 800 feet. Ore has been developed to the 800 level of the Blackberry, which is 400 feet lower than the Senate, the apex of the Senate being 100 feet low CT than the collar of the Blackberry. A new shaft is necessary on the Hack berry farther north on the vein, where there is a big outcrop and where it is expected a great body of ore will be opened. To do this work and to put the mine in shape to maintain the mill at full capacity large outlay of money must be made, and this the new company purpose doing.

NORTH WILL MILL
 DUMP OF RAND MINE

w. o. North, who was assistant manager of the United Eastern mine, at Oatman, but who resigned the first of this month, has purchased the dumps of the old Rand mine, at Searchlight and will have the ores hauled to the Duncan mill, where it will be treated by the cyanide method, The dumps contain about 6,000 tons of good grade mill ore. Granger and Chappell this week took out a load of supplies to start the work off. The contract for the ore haul to the mill has been let to a Searchlight man, who has several trucks and will be able to deliver a tonnage sufficient to keep the mill moving.

GOES TO SAN FRANCISCO
 ON MINING BUSINESS

Charles B. Bell, general manager of the Highland Mining company, depart ed last Monday to San Francisco, where he was called on important bus mess. MT. Bell reports that as soon as he returns from the coast he ex- poets to get the big mill at the com pany's property in shape to put in commission. The company has enough ore in sight to keep this plant in operation for at least two years.

PROSPECTORS TO HUNT
 FOR VEIN IN WALLAPA|S

Tom Sickles and A. A. Park depart ed Thursday morning to the Wallapai mountains, where they will try to pick up vein from which they secured rich float some time ago. The float was the richest ever found in the mountains and the hopes of the men are high that they may De the finders of the vein. The Wallapai mountains are difficult to the prospector, the whole country being covered with manzanita and chapparel and the de- tritis quite deep. A vein may. be ex- posed today, but the rains of tomor- row will cover them deeply with soil.
