PLAN TO PUT OUT
20-YEAR NINE FIRE

The fire which for more than 20
years has burned in the upper levels
OF the United Verde Copper mine at
Jerome is about to be eliminated by
a drastic process of lowering the en-
tire surface of the property to a
400-ioot level. All attempts to ex.
tinguish it have failed.
1t is the general opinion that the
fire was started by slip in the rock
producing sufficient friction to ignite
the ores rich in sulphur. 1t has burn.
ed its way through veins OF copper,
gold and sulphur
The process OF suppressing the fire
involves removal of 100000 cubic
yards OF material. The area to be
evacuated is roughly estimated at
40G by 800 feet. Monster steam show
els are to be employed in the work.
1t is expected that the task of re.
moving the entire top of the mine,
and to extinguish the fire, will occupy
several years.--Oatman Mining News.

No Reduced Rates

The railroad administration at
Washington has denied the petition
made by the Mason Valley Mines
Company for reduced rate on ore
shipped from Paxton, Calf, to the
Wabuska smeltcr, according to a let
ter received by l. F. Shaugnessy, the
chairman of ths state railroad COM
mission. The zeilroad administration
holds that it cannot grant the petition
because there is an existing contract
with the Utah smelter to haul the con-
centrates from Paxton to the Utah
smelter till November |, 1920
The hearing on the petition was
held several months ago at San Fran.
cisco, members of the state railroad
commission and Officials of the Mason
Valley Mines Company, represented
by s. w. BeDford, appearing before
the district freight board, The smell
ter company showed that in case the
lower rate on ore was granted it in
tended to put in additional verber-
ators SO as to handle custom ore
This work, it showed, would represent
an outlay of about 81 ,0000 900 and could
not be completed before November |,
1920, when the contract with the Utah
smelter will expire. Senator'S Pitt
man and Henderson and Congress
man Evans also presented facts and
figures to the railroad administration
