DISTRICT MANAGER OF l. PHELPS-DODGE HERE

A. B. Peach, district manager for the Phelps Dodge corporation, visited Kingman the first of the week for the purpose of strengthening out the af- fairs of the Newby Mines company. The Newby company has a lease on the Antler and Copper World copper properties, east of Yucca, the owner ship being in the Phelps Dodge Cor .poration, or rather the Commercial Copper company, a subsidiary of the first named corporation. He was &C., conpanied on the trip by H. F. Adams, a we'll known mining engi- neer. -S.-. ...,.g .l-:. r-...s ..., : Both gentlemen visited Blackberry Extension property and were well pleased with the progress that is be- ing made under the direction of A. L. Johns. They were also surprised with the unusual amount of activity ap- parent in the county, and while MT. Peach, is we'll acquainted with the various districts he has found that there are yet many things that can be operated profitably in the newer localities. .. .....

COC0N|N0 COUNTY OFFICIALS
 PASS THROUGH k|NChAN

A party, made up of several Coco nino County officials, is passing through Kingman on their way to Ere donia, in that portion of the northern strip located in Coconino county. They will make the trip via Las Vegas, St. Thomas, St. George and Hurricane.
 The party consists of Judge J. B. Jones, of the Superior Court of Coco nino County; Sheriff William A. Campbell, F. M. Gould, County Attor- ney; Tom L. Reese, clerk of the Court; Fred Caring, chairman of the board of Supervisors; William ,Beeson, county assessor, and F. A. Chisholm, county farm agent.
 This morning these officials met with local officers to discuss plans for carrying of the transient sheep and cattle grazing law to the supreme court of the United States. This law was recently held unconstitutional by the Supreme Court of Arizona. With Arizona cattle needing feed, it is hardly the thing for Utah's. cattle to be allowed the privileges of our range in the northern strip and the officials want to be sure that the ruling of the Arizona Supreme Court was right.

TRACES DEATH OF
 HARVEY HUDSPETH
(Continued From Page D

... (SOnClnueQ rTOIn rage
 reached. The jury, summoned by cor oner Sam Miller, after visiting the scene of the accident brought in a verdict of accidental death. -...,, ....
 Harvey F. Hudspeth was born in Bandera county, Texas, September 19, 1878. He came to Arizona in 1896 a poor young man and soon after en- tered the sheep business under his brother Thomas J. Hudspeth, now president of the Hudspeth Sheep Com pany. By strict attention to business and exceptional ability he attracted the attention of T. E. Pollock, one of the, largest sheep owners in Arizona, and became a partner and active man. ager of the Grand Canyon Sheep Com pany. He accumulated a large for tune in few years and was one of the most highly respected and gener- ally liked citizens of Northern Ari- zona. To know Harvey Hudspeth was to love him for he was genial, whole hearted man, always ready to respond to the call of those in need. His sud- den and. tragic taking off will cause deep sorrow and regret to hundreds of his friends and to unnumbered others who knew him only by reputation.
 It will be recalled by several per sons that MT. Hudspeth narrated a dream he had only few nights be- fore his death. He said that in his dream he seemed to be crossing a railway track when his car was struck by a train and cut in two, but that he escaped without injury. In the light of subsequent events it seems the dream was for the first part prophetic.
 Mir. Hudspeth was unmarried. He is survived by his father, Street Huds- peth and sister, Mrs. Dr. J. O. But Ter, of Bandera, Texas, who, with Dr. Butler arrived from Texas on Thurs day, and a brother Thomas J. Huds- peth, the we'll known sheep owner of Kingman. The funeral will be held from St. Johns M. E. Church Satur- day afternoon at 4 o'clock and inter ment will take place at Mountain View cemetery. +.,,
 The heartfelt sympathy of the whole community goes out to the be- reaved relatives in their hour of sor- row.

VERDE CENTRAL OPENS
 GOOD COPPER VEIN |. AT JEROME CAMP

Verde Central, one of the outside claims of the Jerome camp, has dis closed a great body of ore at depth of about 400 feet below the outcrop. The vein SO far disclosed is 12 feet wide with no walls showing and values running better than 79o on an aver age in copper. It is believed that an- other United Verde Ex. will be open ed in this property, the values being in native and glance copper, and run ming better than 3096. Rapid pro- gress will now be made in developing the big vein, although no ore will be produced for marketing. The man. agement of the property is in ex- cellent hands, w. F. Stanton, at one time with the Diamond Joe-Reynolds interests, being engineer in charge and E.. l.. Bartholomew being the superintendent. These men have been getting results from the time they first assumed command of the mine operations. The finding of this big ore body is of great importance to
 the Verde district, as it will give heart to the other mines that have been searching for ore bodies below the leached surface zones.

CON.
 AFFAIRS BEING . STRENGTHENED OUT

MT. and Mrs. Gus Holmes, T. H. Fitzgerald, Dr. M. L. Loomis, and Tom Dunnigan were here several days this week trying to straighten out the affairs of the Blackberry Consolidated Mines. It is understood that the parties have come to some sort of un- derstanding and that within a short time the famous old property will be on the road to a productive future. The troubles with the Blackberry were many. Some months ago an effort was made to consolidate the Senate Silver mines with the Blackberry and operate the two properties from the same main shaft, the Senate mine be- ing only short distance to the south of the main workings of the Hack berry. The effort to consolidate was blocked and then the company became involved to some extent in debts that have not yet been liquidated, but which have now been arranged for settlement Some small difficulties still exist, but it is expected that these will be amicably adjudicated.
 The Blackberry is one of the old mines that should be making good. It has the ore bodies and the values are sufficiently high to make them val uable through mill treatment, as a whole, while in some of the levels the values are such that the ores would pay to send direct to the smelter with out milling. "
 Sam Warmbath and A. G. Heating, who were interested in the promotion of the Senae Silver company, were also in Kingman, looking after their rights in the suits covering the mer- ger of the two companies. The legal end of the battle was waged in the superior court Wednesday last, and some of the phases of the case will probably go to the supreme court, al- though it is more than probable that the whole matter will be soon adjust

COMPANY FORMED FOR
 CLAIMS NEAR WHITE HILLS PROPERTY

James A. Moss, Judge E. E. Armour and Anson H. Smith have formed a corporation under the laws of the state of Delaware for the purpose of operating a group of mining proper ties in Indian Secret district. The claims embrace quite an estate ad- joining the estate of the White Hills Mines company and are among the best of the many important mines of that section. MT. Moss expects to have work on the mines under way within the next sixty days. Several of the veins in the property have been large producers of silver and gold during the old days and there is no reason why they should not again be brought into productivity.

TWO BUILDINGS BURNED
 TO GROUND WEDNESDAY

During the high wind storm of Wednesday last, at noon, the small frame houses of Mrs. Mary Eleanor Cohenour were totally destroyed by fire. Part of the contents of the buildings, were saved, but the loss is estimated at $2500, there being no in- surance. By good work and the fact that plenty of water was at hand the main building was saved, although trees and shrubbery were badly scorched by the heat. The loss to Mrs. Cohenour is very heavy, the buildings bringing in nice monthly rentals. At the time of the fire the buildings were occupied, but only a small part of the effects of the ten nants were lost. . -

PLANS UNDER WAY TO RESUME WORK
 ON WRICLEY MINE

The Nipissing Mining Company about five years ago had it's engineers expert what surface showings indi- cated was a big silver-lead mine in the Cerbat range of mountains in Mohave County, Arizona, about 15 miles northeast of the town of King man, on the main line of the Santa Fe railroad, now the pivotal center of a new mining excitement that is gain ing momentum with leaps and bounds. Had not William Wrigley, Jr, the chewing gum king, baseball club mag nate and Catalina Island owner, out bid the great Cobalt Mining Company, what is believed to be the biggest ledge in northwestern Arizona would have passed to foreign ownership.
 When Wrigley bought the claims now comprising what is frequently referred to as the Wrigley mine, they were but little developed, but the inn mense ledge that cuts the Cerbat range for four miles and averages over 100 feet in width had attracted the attention of many mining experts
 J. Webster Wickes, who at one time was associated with interests that con trol the United Eastern mine at Oat- man, Arizona, and who, several years ago, went abroad to supervise the de velopment of an island of copper ore off the coast of Greece for the Jack ling interests, reported favorably, il is understood, on the property.

ROADSIDE MINE WILL
 RESUME OPERATIONS SOON

Thad M. Boggs, who has optioned the Roadside mines, were over at the property Wednesday last in company of their engineers, Sherman Bagg and H. L. McCarn. The vein across 50 feet of quartz was sampled at the 50 foot level, with excellent results, it is said. The shaft stands at a depth of 300 feet, but is filled to a point only a few feet below the first level. The vein is one of the largest and most important in that part of the Union Pass section, carrying good values across the whole of the great vein. It has a water supply, that is also one of the important items in the develop ment of a mine in that section, and which will be of great value in prede- eating a mill. The property is situat- ed to the west of the old Sheeptrail mines, these veins entering the Road side in the neighborhood of the pres ent shaft.
 The Roadside has been developed by the sinking of the shaft and cross cuts at the 50 and 100 foot levels driven through the vein, no drilling having been carried along the great mass of vein material. With the property in the hands of MT. Boggs we feel sure that a large amount of development will immediately result and that a wonderful producer will be opened.

DEVELOPMENT CAMPAIGN
 TO START AT WHITE HILLS PROPERTY

Senator Kent Keller came in from the coast few days ag0 and has been in consultation with his forces here preparatory to putting on campaign of development on the White Hills mines. Senator Keller has been ac- lively engaged in the financing of the property and is fast getting matters shaped up to carry on 'the big cam paign that is being mapped out. A truck for the use of the company is on the way here and as soon as this arrives the company will be in shape to forward supplies without delay.
 Leasers on the property are getting good results, especially the McGee brothers, who have been in high grade ore for some time. -~, ".,.

 and 600-foot levels have been driven to points corresponding with the pres ent headings on the fourth level. A station and pocket are now being cut at a depth of 500 feet preparatory to drifting along the course of the vein.
 On the 400-foot level the vein has an average width of feet and an aver age value of BPS a ton, as against an average width of feet and an aver age value of $25 ton on the 300-foot level. Raises driven of late from the fourth to the third and thence to the second level have entered old work ings and cut 6 feet of ore assaying 22 ounces silver, $6 gold and 50 per cent lead ton. No. raise from the fourth to the third level is carrying 4 feet of very high grade ore.
 Returns have been received on four cars of concentrates, averaging about 36 dry tons to the car, and each was up to the mark established by the first carload sent out about four weeks ago. It will be remembered that the smell ter settlement sheet on the initial lot of concentrates from the, c. o ID. was close to 5000. J. c.
