tain, there are about IS tunneling compa-
MES in actual operation at present. on the
divide between the waters of Canon Greek
on the south, and the Middle Fork of the
American River and Otter Creek on the
north, embracing the localities known as
Jones Hill, Gravel Hill, Bottle Hill, Ce-
ment Hill, Badger Hill, Fort Hill, Mount
Pleasant and Grape Hill. About one-third
of the number are through the bedrock in
to pay gravel Some of the latter compa-
MES referred to, have an abundance Of wa
ter necessary for washing purposes. A ma
jority of them, however, are dependent on
the rains for sufficient supply.
The remaining fifty companies are run
ming their tunnels in the bedrock, at an
average expense of at least $l60 per week
each; making the sum of $4,000. The ex-
penses of those engaged in taking out pay,
is at least $4,000 more; making total OF
$4,000, expended every week for carrying
on tunneling operations alone on that di-
vide. The above named localities are en-
braced in an extent of country about five
