 Editor Arizona Mining Journal
 Ajo-Orders for the structural steel to be used in the construction of the new 5.000-ton concentrator of the New Cornelia will be placed in Sep tember, according to General Mana ger Greenway. Since July 1st copper Production by New Cornelia has been steadily increasing and the current months output will be about 4,O00.- 900 pounds.
 Clarkdale-The new Cottrell fume- treating plant of the United Verde company, which was recently put into operation is now functioning in per feet order and receiving all the fumes from the coasters. blast furnace and converters. The operation of the plant marks a new step forward in the history of the Verde district smelters.
 Jerome-A quite extensive deposit of copper chalcotrichite was recently reported opened on the 1900 level of the United Verde Extension mine. Similar deposits are said to have been opened and mined about the time the company's smelter was put into commission. The ore is reported to contain about so per cent copper.
 Oatman-It is expected that actual production of ore will begin at the Oatman United property within the next two weeks. A body of ore five feet in width has been entered on the South drift. while still a considerable distance from the end line of the claim. The main raises have been started from the 500 preparatory to opening the stopes.
 Bouse-It is reported that settle ment has been arrived at between the Mitchell interests. owners of the Swansea railroad, and the Swansea Lease. patrons of the road, operating the Swansea mines Several attempts have been made to scrap the road and the rolling stock. but these have been blocked by the Lease. which is now emploing about 200 men at Swansea.
 Douglas-According to reports two Chihuahua. Mexico, mining compan- ies have cancelled arrangements for resuming operations, rather than sub init to the stringent labor law, known as the "strangle law" Fl Rayo com pany had planned to put 5000 men to work soon and the Esmeralda Parral company intended to open soon with 1000 employees.
 Prescott-Delegates from the ten chapters of the state organization of the American Association of Engi- neers will meet in Prescott August 31, under the chairmanship of George R. Fansett. mining engineer of the Arizona Bureau of Mines at Tucson. The engineers licensing law. the en gineer in public office. and other mat ters will be discussed.
 The Copper Situation-While no further advance in the price of cop per has been made during the past week, the metal still being quoted at 141-S cents, the general improvement in the red metal market may be not ed in the increased activity in copper shares, for which there is a growing demand.
