News Of Strike In
April Was Fake, Consulting
Engineer Declares.
(From Saturday's Daily)
The following report, which has
been issued by Consulting Engineer
II. P. Henderson of the Jcromc-Vcrde
will prove of interest to holders of
that stock:
"During the morning of the 19th
of last April it was reported to Mr.
J. B. Harper, superintendent of the
Jerome Verde Copper Company, that
the diamond drill operating in the
Vcrdc property had passed through
two feet of rich copper ore. Mr. Har
per immediately inspected the core,
from which a representative sample
assayed 27 per cent copper. The drill
runners stated that this was drilled
from depth of 469 to 471 feet, and
the core had been place in the core
box in this position.
"Mr. Harper soon ascertained that
the drill operators had reported this
discovery to individuals not connected
with the Jerome Vcrdc Copper Com
pany, some time before reporting to
himself, and, in fact, the information
was widely disseminated in Jerome by
the time he was informed. The drill
runners were immediately discharged
for their dishonesty. From informa
tion I have gathered, both from Mr.
Harper and from acquaintances in Je
rome, I believe there is no doubt of a
conspiracy between the drill opera
tors and certain individuals, resident
in Jerome, for personal gain in the
stock market.
"Shortly afterwards we started
crosscutting for the point at which
the ore was reported. Wc have re
cently exposed the drill hole for 15 or
20 feet on each side of the point re
ported, without exposing any ore
whatsoever, although there are traces
of copper not far distant.
"It appears, therefore, that the
drillers not only delayed their report
but misrepresented the facts. Wc
arc not certain whether the core was
drilled from an earlier part of thi.
hole, some other hole, or was drilled
from fragments of ore obtained else
where. In such a case it is easy tc
detect the fact of collusion, but, from
the nature of diamond drilling, diffi
cult and expensive to determine the
truth. The Jerome Vcrdc Copper
Company has been put to consider
able useless expense by this dis
honesty. "The number of stockholders in the
Jerome Vcrdc Copper Company is so
great that it is impracticable for the
company to report to them directly
at short intervals. The most feasible
way of informing stockholders of de
velopments is by making the infor
mation public, and Mr. Harper has
been instructed to do this immedi
ately after informing the officers of
the company. We intend to make this
information as accurate as possible.
"The diamond drilling program
which wc arc carrying out on the Je
rome Verde property is not intended
to measure the amount of ore which
may exist on the property, and is not
planned primarily to discover ore di
rectly. Since the ore-bearing forma
tions arc capped by sedimentary
rocks, wc have no knowledge of the
distribution of the various formations
below the cappings on the most ol
the property, and our diamond drill
ing is planned to determine the posi
tion, throughout the area of the prop
crty, of the more important geological
features which have some relation to
the ore deposits of the district, and
to enable us to map the various under
lying rocks, greenstone, schists and
porphyries, the faults, and the zones
of shearing, oxidization, jaspcrization
and pyritization which may occur on
the property.
"It is possible that some of these
drill holes may encounter ore, but it
should be remembered that the rc-
suits ot an ore cxpoMirc uj a u.a..,u.m

conclusive until connrmcu uy anus
and crosscuts, except possibly in the
case of very large regular ore bodies.
For example, five feet of core may be
produced by a drill hole extending
along a five-inch stringer.

greatest possible speed and economy.
Thc success and economy of such
a plan depends upon the accuracy ol
thcVork, and it is certainly outrage
ous that some of our results should
have been falsified by certain resi
dents of this district, through bribery
or conspiracy with the former dia
mond drill employes.
"Public sentiment in Jerome will
be largely instrumental in determin
ing whether further attempts of this
sort arc made. If any other of our
employes arc found willing to accept
bribes it is probable that they will
find it easier and more convenient to
attempt to fake than to await a real
discovery. Jerome can be made cith
er a desirable or undesirable place of
residence for persons who care to
participate in such dishonesty, and
'.both the reputation of Jerome and
ultimately the amount of money avail
able for opening up the undeveloped
property of the district will depend
largely on the prevalence of fake re
ports. (Signed), H. P. HENDERSON,

POPULAR YOUNG
WOMAN CALLED BY REAPER
(From Saturday's Daily)
The death summons came to Mrs.
May Josephine McFarlan, wife of
H. A. McFarlan and daughter of Mrs.
M. J. Hickcy, in this city yesterday.
Her loss will evoke sincere expres
sions of sorrow in this community.
where she was born and where her
life ended under circumstances which
arc pathetic.
The affliction was peritonitis, and
her illness dates back to last June
when she was brought home from
Phoenix to be with relatives and
friends. Through her ordeal she bore
her sufferings uncomplainingly and
to the last she maintained a com
posure which occasioned many to ex
press their affection for one who in
sickness maintained the same de
meanor as in health.
Mrs! McFarlan was graced with a
beautiful personality, and was also
accomplished, being a musician of ex
ceptional ability on the piano. Slit
attended St. Joseph's Academy in
Prcscott when a young lady, and later
graduated from Notre Dame, San
Jose, with marked recognition ex
tended her by the faculty. She was
born in Prcscott, July 25, 1888 and
until three years ago, after her mar
riage, resided here continuously. She
was a daughter of one of the best
known of Yavapai pioneer families,
her father, the late M. J. Hickcy, at
taining prominence as an official and
a citizen.
The date for the funeral has been
set for Monday morning at 10 o'clock

OF HUGE POWER PLAN!
Prescott Citizens Guests Of Arizona
Power Company In Inspection Of
Electrical Station At Tapco-
(From Tuesday's Daily.)
Through the courtesy of the offi
cials of the Arizona Power Company,
about 200 citizens of Prcscott were
on Sunday permitted to make a trip
of inspection to the company's huge
new electrical station located near
Clarkdale at a new town called Tapco.
The big plant, which is designed with
an idea of increasing the electrical
output of the company in the Jcromc
Clarkdalc district, is remarkable not
only on account of the splendid equip
ment contained therein, but also on
account of the fact that the entire
building and all of its contents were,
erected and assembled within the
rather short space of time which
elapsed between January 1, 1917, and
September 7, the latter date being the
one on which the current was turned
into the trunk lines which will dis
tribute it among the various mines
and other adjacent industrial prop
erties. At the present time 'the big plant
is turning out but half of its rated
capacity of 7,000 kilowatts per hour,
and this output will bc maintained
perhaps for the next month or so
until the new machinery has had the
opportunity of becoming smoothed
up and thoroughly tested by the run
ning operations.
In order that the citizens of this
city might appreciate the lengths to
which the company has gone in its
efforts to supply an adequate amount
of electrical power to the adjacent
mining sections, an excursion was ar
ranged by the officials of the power
organization, and a special train left
Prescott at S o'clock on Sunday morn
ing, carrying a large delegation of
representative' citizens who had been
invited by President Vcilc to make
the trip and get some idea of the
magnitude of the new power station.
The special made the trip over the
branch which leaves the S. F. P. & P.
at Cedar Glade. The location of the
big electrical station is within three
miles of Clarkdale, and the property
on which the plant is situated con
sists of 12 acres of irrigated farm
land, which was purchased from the
Vcrdc Fruit Farms Company, and
which is enclosed in a bend of the
Vcrdc river. Following the arrival
of the party at the plant, an inspec
tion of the workings was made in
company with guides who took pains
to explain all of the intricate pieces
of machinery to the visitors. Shortly
after noon an elaborate buffet lunch
eon was served, the menu containing
a list of good things which ranged
from fried chicken to ice cream, and
attractively served by the competent
staff of Chinese cooks of which the
camp boasts.
The big plant, which proved so in
teresting to the visitors, was built by
the Arizona Power Company through
the medium of a corporation called
the Arizona Steam Generating Com
pany. The construction work was
under the supervision of R. S. Mas
son, the company's engineer, and was
in the hands of the San Francisco con-!
trading firm of Charles C. Moore &
Company. The plant is located about
half a mile from the Clarkdale line
of the Santa Fc and is reached by a1
standard guagc spur 2,800 feet in I
length. The building itself is con-1
structed of concrete throughout with
the exception of the western end
which has a corrugated iron finish, so
that future additions can bc made
with a minimum of expense. The
boiler room is 110 feet long, 70 -feet
wide and 35 feet high and the turbine
room adjoining is 66 feet long, 40 feet
wide and 42 feet high. The equip
ment is of the most modern construc
tion and is designed to give the max
imum of efficiency.
Adjoining the boiler room and con
nected by concrete flues is a concrete
stack 8 feet in diameter and 220 feet
in height.
The mechanical and electrical equip
ment consists of four Sterling boilers
uitablc to produce steam for 10,000
horse power. Each boiler is provid
ed with a superheater and between
the boilers and the stack arc located
economizers to get all of the possible
heat from the burned gases into the!
feed water.
Oil fuel is used under the boilers
and immediately West of the present
boiler room there is an oil unloading j
station bn the spur track consisting!
of a concrete trough with four open-j
ings so that four carloads of oil can be
emptied at one time. From this un
loading tank the oil is pumped by
electrical power to two auxiliary tanks
back of the boiler house, which con
tain 24 hours' supply of oil or to a
large storage tank located .about 1,000
feet from the boiler house. This
storage tank contains 30 carloads of
oil, enough for one month's opera
tions. The water for the boilers is obtain
ed from a well in the basement and
before being placed in the boilers the
water is thoroughly purified of all
foreign matter in a carefully designed
laboratory located in one corner of
the boiler room. From this labora
tory the water is pumped to a feed
water heater and from the feed water
heater is forced by duplicate sets 'of
pumps through the economizers and
thence into the boilers themselves.
The oil feed pumps, which arc in
duplicate, arc located immediately in
front of the water pumps and supply
oil directly to the Jmrncrs under the
boilers. The regulation of the oil feed
to the boilers is entirely automatic
and the amount of oil and steam for
vaporizing same is automatically
regulated by the demands upon the
boilers themselves. The four boilers
arc connected by pipe bends to a
steam header on the south side of the
boiler room, and from this header
steam at 250 pounds pressure and 150
degrees superheat passes directly to
the steam turbine, which operates the
10,000 horse power electric generator.
After passing through the turbine the
steam enters a condenser which is lo
cated in the basement of the building
directly under the turbine itself. This
condenser has 14 miles of one-inch
copper tubes, through which cold
water is continually flowing. In pass
ing through the condenser the steam
is returned to the water circulating
system.
The steam turbine and electrical
generator which was furnished by the
General Electric Company is capable
of producing 10,000 horse power elec
trical energy and efficiency is equip
ped with water cooled bearings,
pumps for circulating oil through the
bearings, and with a specially con
structed air cooling device which
forces cool air through the windings
of the generator and thence into the
open air. The water circulating sys
tem for cooling bearings is operated
from a large tank on the roof of the
engine house whence it flows by grav
ity through the bearings of the tur
bine and generator and thence
through cooling coils immersed in the
conduit which carries the condensing
water to the condenser. From this
point it passes to a large storage tank
in the basement from which it is
pumped to the tank on the roof by
electrically operated centrifugal
pumps. In order to supply suitable
water for the condenser itself with
absolutely no diminution in the water
supply of the river, a concrete intake
was built on the bank of the Vcrdc
river, 4,600 feet from the power
house, and the water from this intake
is carried by means of a concrete
flume four feet wide and three feet I
deep to the inlet of the condenser.
After passing through the condenser.
a continuation of the concrete flume
800 feet long returns the water di
rectly into the river. Two thousand
five hundred feet of this concrete
flume is covered with a concrete slab
roof, the remainder being open to the
air, the roof being necessary to keep
the flume from filling up in case of
high water in the river itself.
Electricity generated by the turbine
is delivered directly to the bank of
four 2,000 K. W. transformers, one ol
these transformers being a spare in
case of accidents, and is raised from
a voltage of 2,300 volts to 45,000
transmitted through oil switches di
rectly to the Clarkdale sub-station of
The Arizona Power Company.
Immediately cast of the power
house seven houses for engineers and
operators have been built under the
shade of cottonwood trees, and along
side the open concrete 'flume. The
space in between the houses, 400 feet
long and 100 feet wide, has been
planted with fruit trees and an oval'
gravel ' driveway passes around the--
plaza -immediately in front of each '
house. j

CROP SURVEY OF THE
NORTH IS COMPLETED
(From Sunday's Daily.)
George H. Smalley, secretary of the
Arizona Council of Defense, is in
Prcscott in connection with the work
of that organization. He has just
finished a crop survey of northern
counties, this work in Yavapai county
having been halted by the departure
of George W. Schccrcr, county farm
agent, who was called to the war. "He
was in conference with W. O. Hoogc
straat, county chairman of the council
of defense, regarding other important
war preparedness work.
On Friday, Mr. Smalley spoke to
the student body of the High school
on the part the boys and girls arc
taking in the war work, driving home
to them he importance of conserving
food and extending agricultural pro
duction through gardens. He spoke
of the excellent spirit shown by the
Boy Scouts under Mr. Hoogcstraat,
and urged them to renew their efforts
again next year in agriculture, prom
ising the support and encouragement
of the council of defense. A sub
stantial contribution has already been
made by the council of defense to the
boy scouts of this city.
In behalf of the food conservation
work, Mr. Smalley arranged with Su
perintendent Martin of the city
schools to have the pledge cards is
sued by Food Administrator Hoover
distributed by the pupils to the homes
for signature.
T. A. Riordan, of Flagstaff, has
been appointed by President Wilson
as State food administrator and will
have charge of all of the work relat
ing to food and prices throughout
Arizona. The council of defense is
working in conjunction with Mr.
Riordan in this connection, and the
information obtained through the
cron survey will bc turned over to
him.
Mr. Smalley emphasizes the im
portance of farmers responding to the
call made upon them to fill up the
blanks sent them by Mr. Schccrcr,
for the council of defense cannot be
of service to the farmers in market
ing and keeping products out of home
markets in competition with local
farmers unless information relative
to what is produced here is obtained
and tabulated.
A campaign is being started by the
council of defense urging Arizona
people to buy and consume home pro
ducts. Coconino county will place
over 400 carloads of fine potatoes on
the market next month all of which
can bc consumed by the people o
this State, and Navajo county is com
ing into the market with 20 carloads
of beans which Arizonans arc to bc
called upon to buy. Yavapai county
will have lots of fruit, vegetables,
alfalfa and cereals which there is
home market for. Marketing experts
arc working to provide the best avail
able markets for the farmers, but it
is essential that the council of defenst
know at once what the farmers are
raising and the quantities that will bc
placed upon the market.

(From Friday's DaHy.)
According to word which was re
ceived here yesterday by Shcrtfi
Young, one of the largest captures of
contraband liquor ever pulled off in
this part of the Sta": v made the
day before at Parker, by the officers
who arc wactching the river crossing
at that place.
A car driven by one man and com

of bootleg arc still in the possession
of the officers.
creasing demands for power which
have overloaded the water power
plants for the last year.
The presence of this steam plant as
.in nnviliarv reserve was deemed ad
visablc by the directors of The Ari
zona Power Company to take care of
the rapidly increasing demands of the
Jerome district, and also to act as a
guarantee against interruptions on
the long transmission lines from the
hydro-electric plant. The double
transmission lines from the steam
plant to Clarkdale are one mile in
length. From the Clarkdale substa
tion a new line is being built to the
Hopewell crushing plant of the Unit
ed Vcrdc and thence to the present
Jerome sub-station. The liability to
interruptions on the electrical cir
cuits will bc reduced to a minimum
by the addition of this much-needed
reserve and the company is prepared
to add to the size of the tcani plant
as the demand of the customers re
quires. When the plant has been

NOW THING OF THE PAS!
Manufacture Ceased Friday Night At
11 O'clock; Big Stock On Hand Will
Command Fancy Prices.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 8. The
manufacture of whiskey ceased
throughout the nation at 11 o'clock
last night when the prohibitive clause
of the food control act became effect
ive. Millions of bushels of grain which
food officials say would otherwise bc
ground up for whiskey, arc thus re
leased for food.' How many millions,
no one knows, for the manufacture 'of
alcohol for beverage purposes is so
closely blended with the production
of alcohol for industrial and medicin
al purposes that there is no way ol
determining the exact amount.
Of the 100,000,000 bushels of grain,
or thereabouts, which goes into the
distilleries each year, about 40 per
cent, experts estimate, comes out in
the form of whiskey and other dis
tilled beverages. The remainder,
made into alcohol of exactly the same
characteristics as that used for whis
key, eventually finds its way into per
fumes, toilet waters, bay rum, ma
chines and to industries where de
natured alcohol is used in ever in
creasing quantities.
Approximately 116,000.000 gallons
of whiskey arc produced each year
by American distillers. Production
of alcohol by the same distilleries for
commercial and medicinal uses other
than beverages approximates 146,000,
000 gallons. The manufacture of al
cohol for the latter purposes, will
continue as usual, probably in greater
volume, and few of the larger distil
leries, if any, will have to shut down,
according to government authorities.

Jersey and Ohio, officials believe, will
suspend operations entirely. The
California plants, it is thought, will
continue to operate, in part, for the
manufacture of spirits for fortifying
sweet wines.
Stopping whiskey manufacture, in
stead of curtailing the government's
revenues, will increase them for the
next two years, officials believe. Cou
pled with the pending revenue bill,
the withdrawal of whiskey from bond
will probably treble the revenues
within the next 12 months, as the
present law imposes a tax of $1.10
and the revenue bill contemplates a
tax of 3.20 a gallon. A tax of approx
imately 230,000,000 gallons has accu
mulated in the bonded warehouses
and on the shelves of wholesale and
retail liquor dealers. Approximately
190,000,000 gallons are in warehouses
and upon that quantity the govern
ment will collect taxes upon alcohol
for commercial purposes, except alco
hol for denaturization, the revenue
bill would impose a tax of $2.20 doub
ling the present income.
There arc approximately 700 dis
tilleries in the country of which more
than one-half arc small fruit brandy
plants. The amount of capital in
vested in the latter clas." is r.ot great
in the aggregate. The capital invest
ed in the big producing plants mounts
high into the millions. Officials here
believe that losses will be more than
wiped out by the prices distillers will
obtain for the product already manu
factured. In the opinion of some this whiskey
will bc selling at $15 a gallon within
