ic Press says:
On San Juan Hill ten or twelve companies
are washing. but not regularly, and the aver
age daily sales of water from the Middle Yu
ba hume amount to about 1,400 inches
There are more companies ready to wash
than this amount of water will supply, with
out some laying off, as it is termed. When
the large pipe of the Eureka Lake Company,
now being rapidly constructed and laid shall
discharge 1900 inches more of water into the
hill, the washings can be continued with but
little interruption, and the gold yield will be
greater than it ever was before We do not
doubt that the diggings around town will
contribute $4,000 weekly to the amount in
general circulation, and the most of this will
be expended, some of it invested, in our
midst.
