Live Oak Ghilch Devel
opment Work.
Miami, Ariz De.;. 10. The South
western Miami Development company
is continuing its exploration ot tne
Montezuma group and of its other
claims along Live Oak gulch with three
ihurn drills in steady operation.
Hole No. 16 is 10SS feet deep in mln--alizd
schist and hole No. 17 is 716
l-et deep in the same formation. Hole
o. l&, which was started recently, is
3 4 0 feet deep and has not yet pained
:i rough the Gila conglomerate that
ir,ers- the schist in that area.
Iron Cap Mouaiain Record.
The Iron Cap is maintaining its rec
i d as a producer of copper ore and
onager Woodward states the mine
a is never in better shape and that the
l ture look most promising.
The drift on the 650 foot level, from
.nch most of the ore is being ex
i .icted at thf present time, was holed
rough on the sixth level of the old
I ureka shart or the Arizona Commr-
al mine This very important con
nection was made during the past
wek and now affords excellent venti
lation to the Iron Cap mine. In fact
the connection was made almost en
tirely for ventilation purposes and
more work and increased efficiency
will be the result.
In addition to the mining operations
or. the (50 foot level, drifting and
Moping are being done on the 800 foot
level, though the greater part of the
ore comes from the upper level.
Shipments to the Old Dominion
Finelter are being maintained at the
rate of 15 to 18 50 ton cars per month
and the ore averages about 8 percent
' opper. In addition to this there is be
ng shipped one car a month of very
I igh grade ore averaging 25 to 30
percent copper and also carrying about
" ounces of silver per too.
hout 40 men are employed and the
rune is obviously in a prosperous con
dition. 1
To Connect With Main East Shaft.
Development work at the Inspiration
fonsolidated Copper company's mine
1? being carried ahead at a rapidly in
creasing rate. Within a few days con
nection should be made with the main
east shaft on the sixth level and con
nection should be made with the main
est shaft on the same level about five
davs later.
a new haulare drift is being opened
up on the sixth level on a coordinate
at least 50 feet east of the present
i orth-south haulage drift in the Colo
rado orehody.
On the sublevels of the Joe Bush
o'ebody work is in progress in order
to provide adequate manways and
openings for ventilation, which will be
Tiecessary in the course of mining that
orebody. The two long raises from the
fourth "level up to the Joe Bush ore
oump are approximately 230 feet long
and will soon be holed through to the
surface, and from these branch raises
will be put up so that the whole stock
pile surface may be drawn off and sent
t- the mill with practically no shovel
ing. In AnKerahltap Material.
The American Bridge company Is
now unloading steel at the site of the
main shafts for the double head frame
and all of the employes have been put
to work again. The foundations are
al! in readiness and steel is now being
distributed for thy incline conveyor
and within a few days erection work
v ill be in progress.
Grading continues at tne smeuer site
nv MacArthnr Brothers company. Two
spurs have been put in from the main
line to the smelter site. The steam
shove! is now digging for a sidetrack
and the wagon road will be changed
to the other side of the site, as it has
been cut off from the former route.
House B-10, located near the tele
phone office in InsDiration camp, is

company, has been on the sick list for
the past few days suffering an attack
of lumbago.
Castle Dome Work; Proceeds.
At the Castle Dome a distance of 60
feet has been driven which gives the
tunnel at the face a vertical depth of
approximately 135 feet. The last 58
feet has been continuously passim?
through high grade stringers of lead,
silver and copper. Hefner and Harri
son, who have been working on the
property, relinquished their lease re
centlv. Henry McCormick, who Is
heavily interested in the Castle Dome,

Deal Is Practically , Made
l?or Sunflower-Cinnabar
Property.
Phoenix, Ariz., Dec 10. For JXS00.
000 a foreign syndicate will shortly
take over the property of the Sunflower-Cinnabar
Mining company, in
the Mazatzal mountains, 80 miles
northeast of Phoenix.
The syndicate now has a representa
tive in Phoenix who has made a posi
tive offer. The stockholders held a
special meeting and authorized the dl
miMan ti nrnfpn) Trith the deal-
There are lis stockholders in the
company, nearly all residents of Phoe
nix. They will receive approximately
$7.88 a share for stock that cost them,
onlv a few mouths ago, from 50 cents
to $1. Dr. John W. Fobs is president;
S. N. Sears, general manager; J. W.
Thompson, secretary and attorney. '
The road from Phoenix to the Maz
atzals is far from good and it is impos
sible to get a wagon or automobile
within a mile and a half of the mine.
Supplies and machinery are packed in
on burros, and the quicksilver is
packed out the same way.
Machinery for a small mill was car
ried to the mine and there set up.
It has been in operation a little over
a month and one small shipment has
already been made. A carload is now
accumulating at the mine and will be
shipped ecrly in January. A carload
contains 300 flasks and each flask con
tains 75 pounds of mercury.
Application Is Refused.
The new Arizona mine tax law works
in a mysterious way. Some of its
peculiarities were brought to light as
a result of the application of the Ari
zona Copper company, of Greenlee
county, for a reduction of approxi
mated $500,000 in its assessment. The
I application has been finally denied by
the state tax commission.
It is provided ny the new law that
each producing mine shall be assessed
on 1ST percent of its gross output,
plus four times the net. In fixing val
uations the company must take the
average prices on metal quoted by the
Mining & Engineering Journal or some
publication of equal standing.
The Arizona Copper company was as
sessed the same as though it produced
casting copper and applied for a reduc- ,
tion on the ground that the average
price of Bessemer pig was lower than
that of casting. According to its own
statement it received an average of
15.8624 cente a pound for its Bessemer
pis-
Three Companies Receive I.ess.
At least three of the big milling
companies of Arizona received less, on
the average, for electrolytic than the
Arizona company received for its pig.
They we're not so fortunate in market
ing their product. The Great Western
received 15.843 cents; Copper Queen
15.510 and Ray Consolidated 15.7624.
Still they were assessed on the basis of
16.341, the average for electrolytic
througthoHt the year.
In addition to this the electrolytic
TteoDle had to nav S5 a ton extra for
I the electrolytic process, through which
I Tdaaana wiv na nAr nA ok TKo fwtm
pany tarns out Bessemer pig.
7 the shipment gave results of S128 a ton.
j.ne snamrocK is one or the New State
group, on the Hassayampa.
A contract has been let to sink 75
feet from the 100 foot level of the main
shaft at the Stein group. Much drift
ing and crosscutting has been done re
cently and at all points the showing is
satisfactory. Machinery has been in
stalled. At the annual meeting of the stock
holders of the Yavapai Metals Mining
company office were elected for the
ensuing year anu it was decided to be
gin development work immediately. A
large appropriation was made to carry
on exploration at depth. When work
was suspended, several months ago,
conditions were quite satisfactory.
Iarge ore bodies were in evidence and
some of the ore carried as much as 45
percent copper. All needed machinery
i3 on the ground.
County treasurer E. A. Rogers has
received from the United Verde Copper
cviutmny a cnecK ior $i.45,ibS.Ul, which
is the amount of the company's state
and county taxes this year. It is be
lieved that this is the largest Indi
vidual check ever paid Into the county
treasury.
WORK CONTINUES
ON LITTLE DAISY
Guggenueiiss Reported to Have Option
on the Copper Chief Property in
the Jerome District.
Jerome, Ariz., Dec. 10. Deep devel
opment is being continued with highly
satisfactory results at the IJttle Daisy
mine. The Douglas shaft has been tim
bered down to the drift at the S00 foot
level and within a short time the work
of sinking this shaft down to 1800
feet will be commenced. A new com
pressor, recently installed at the old
shaft, is being moved to the Douglas:
Drifting from the 200 foot winze in
the old shaft is to be continued. This
drift will be continued under the Doug
las shaft, with which it will be con
nected by an upraise.
At the Arkansas & Arizona a raise
from the bottom of the shaft, now 1460
feet in depth, has been made to the
1160 foot level.
The shaft on the 1230 foot level of
the Haynes mine has been completed
and a large station, 24x30 feet in di
mensions, with 12 feet in the clear, hs
been made on the 1200 foot level.
An electrical pump and compressor
will be installed soon at the Haynes.
The present force or 26 men is to be
increased within the next 30 days.
A few men are working on the Cop
per Chief. It is still rumored that the
Guggenheims have an option on this
property and are shortly to begin ex
tensive operations.

Prescott, Ariz Dec. 10. Rumors are
in circulation that the Humboldt smel
ter will shortly resume the treatment
of custom ores. If this is the case
it will be important to the mining in
dustry in Yavapai county. Practically
all the ores shipped out of Yavapai

are idle because it will not pay to
transport their ores such a great dis
tance. Much new machinery Is being In
stalled at Humboldt and it is stated
that a new process of reduction is to
be employed. A large force of men is
employed 4n making betterments that
cannot be completed for several weeks.
The smelter is turning out its usual
production of matte. No ores except
those from the Bluebell mine are be
ing treated. The Bluebell is owned by
the company that owns the smelter.
