The claims of the creditors will bring nearly the full sum necessary to full liquidation of indebtedness- Reymert The work on this property is being kept steadily ahead by sinking of the main vertical shaft. This is now down to a depth of :iT0 feet. This vein is a large and promising one 'on tlie surface and remains oxidized and is very soft and friable, therefore requiring care and caution in mining. It is anticipated that a zone of en richment will be found under this area, and under this a sulphide base. Jerome The main shaft at the Little Daisy has now reached a depth of 1-00 feet and a station is being cut on the lu.nging wall side, preparatory to i ross-cutting on this side of the fault, where it is expected ore may be encountered; at any rate, that is the hope of those interested. Work is being carried on in a small way at the Hull and Cleopatra prop erties. Th new tortuous seven-mile rail load from flarkdale to the laOU-foot tunnel at the Verde mine is com pleted and has been turned over to the I'nited Verde company. The 400 fcot stack at the smelter is also nearly completed and the progress being made insures the. new smelter 1 lant going into commission some time during the latter part of the ,vear. J. S. Scott & Co.. the responsible firm of stock brokers at Jerome, is sues a little bulletin occasionally, containing condensed mining para graphs from all over the state. In one of them it says the sheriff is still in charge of a part of the mangled remains of the Brooklyn Arizona. Why don't they hold a post-mortem and bury it. Desert Queen It is saiil this property, Casa C.rande. and located old Jaik Rabbit mine, is start up again. The mine idle for manv years. After south of near the likely to has lain consider- able work was done a cyanide plant was also erected. The property is in rather uad shape, but is said to contain fair values in gold and sil ver. There are promising properties in this district that will make good when the proper and intelligent min ing attention is given them. . The prospect of the Ajo railroad being constructed is giving some decided impetus to this district. Mohave County During tbe month of March the clean-up of the Tom Keed mine was $ 10.1. i0 in gold, showing that the ore is holding high value. The winze from the '.100-foot level has boon sunk -oo feet ami remains in high grade ore all the wav. The mine has large bodies of fll ore, but this is not being mined at the present time. Ores of higher grade only are being taken to the mill. It is con templating enlarging the plant in the near future. The Portland Group The following appeared in Tin Republican under date: HA Y, Ariz., April 1". The Portland mining claims, adjoining the ground of the recent Ray gold strike, have been bonded to Dr. W. W. Nutting, of Jlostoii. Mass. There are five claims in the group. More particulars regarding the jleal is embodied in tlie following: - The Portland group, jind adjoining claims have been bonded to Dr. W. W. Nutting. The Portland group consists of five claims, held by K. R. Shafor and others of Jerseyville, 111. The property lies on the west side of Mineral creek, three miles above THAT PRINT fyflt ROBERTSON J Phone 1709 (flompaiiij Ray, adjoining the old Ray Northern property on the south. Dr. Nutting was in Ray a month ago and examined the property and located for himself at that time six other claims. He also took option on a claim held by Dan Kusemon mid one held by J. W. Read, which in creases Hie group to thirteen claims. According to the terms of the bond. S 1,100 is to be paid within ninety days ami the remainder in imi and two years. The total consideration was $21,000. Dr. Nutting is formcly from Ros ton, though he makes Phoenix his home winters. J. W. Read of Phoenix promoted the ileal.

Shannon Discovery were no new developments at the Shannon mines prop very important discovery. There last year or. A however, company's was made at one of the outshle claims, known as the Alaska mine, about half a mile from the Shannon mines. The dis covery was made by the Arizona Copper company, through one of their mines, which adjoins the Alaska. As far as development has gone, the ore shows to be 30 feet wide, averag ing for the entire 30 feet in widlli over S per. cent in copper. C"chse Mines The Southwestern Copper company of San Simon has been incorporated to operate the property of the old Cochise Consolidated Copper com pany, two miles north of Paradise. The mine .was closed down in Hun"., the property being in litigation for several years. Some ore has been blocked out. There is a concentrator on the ground and a number buildings are in a good state of preservation. This property is an extension or the old Peabody mine and has . about 100 feet of develop ment work.

An Old Mine Rediscovered Comes a story to me from Yuma county, but as the correspondent, who now has the property, does not iiosire his name to be known in con nection with it, I refrain from pub lishing it. However, the story is too interesting not to give our readers the. benefit of its perusal, for it smacks so strongly of the tales told about old Spanish mines, and who knows the discovery may be the long lost Dutchman, Frenchman, Nigger Ken. or the Peg-Leg. However, here ' is the story. I "Several weeks ago my son and j another party, while prospecting j around the works of an old aban- ! ' doned or French mine, out in the if I Palomas range, discovered a closed winze in one of the drifts, and upon opening It up found that it lej to a thousand feet of drifts upon a con tact vein or over 300 feet in width and exposing large bodies of lead ami silver ores that look to me like a i fortune.

The r is known to the geological sur as the Picacho placers, or Plo placcrs both names being used i ion l.lac ey i in describing it. I I can pan quite a bit of native sil ver out of the rock, but up to date have been unable to scare up one color of horned. gold in ail) tiling that 1 have I HOW ANOTHER DEAL FELL THROUGH i ll runs brieflx as follows: A party got an oi lion on a property: he I didn't know which way to turn it. ! Through another party he got u rnin- ir.g engineer to take the matter in hand and he submitted it to some I parties for the figures stated at 1 $31,000. Negotiations commenced; in j inch reply by eorrrspendoneo the terms became stiffer aim stiffer un til it simmered down to the following conditions: f.'M.oeo down immediately after examination: another payment soon after to make up $71.ooo, and the bolder of the option to retain a half interest in the property. The other parties finally replied and said if he would hold the property until the next presidential election they might consider the deal to give him S71,on0 for a one-tenth interest and waive the examination. MIAMI COPPER It 1s figured that, ta.king tlie pro duction and costs of the .Miami Cop per Mining company for the first two months of 1H14 as a basis, the com pany is earning net at the rate of ll.OOii.OOO a year, putting the price of copper at 14 cents a pound, the company produced poumJs of copper at a cost while in February (L'S days January Il.r.l 1.017 of 9.78c, ,;i,:;ii;.4X2 pounds of copper werep rodticed at a cost of JS.Slc. In March the produc tion was about .'l.4iil.OOo pounds of copper at a cost that will in all prob ability o lower than the preceding month. The deficit of $2S4,0!H shown in the company's annual report for the year mded December ;U last was due almost entirely to 'the case-in which occurred last April at the company's property. Although the comparative ly low price of copper received was a factor in bringing about this result. The cave-in occurred in the north west ore body and not only inter fered with mining operations during April, .May and June of last year, bill also increased the cost of production. INSPIRATION New Issue of $4,500,000 Five-Year 6 Per Cent.

The issue has been j i.iidcrv ritten by a stiong banki".;; s:nlieiite. The bonds are issued to provide i additional f-tntls necessary on account j of the company's plant to 10,000 tons j per day, and to pay for additional i mine development, mine construction, j railroad construction and equipment,! lu'w power house, Hud puichaso, etc., i i n . eluded in prc ious estimates. ; The company's annual report. which will lie mailed to stockholders April 11, will show a developed ore i of S!).14::,ono tons, of which 7;:, r,2J,00O i tons are sulphide ores averaging l.Tl j per cent, copper.
