We called on Capt. Bell yesterday
morning to interview him in regard to
mill and other matters and found him
more enthusiastic than ever over the
bright prospects for Panamint, since his
return from San Francisco. He says the
work on the twenty-stamp mill will be
driven ahead as fast as possible, and as
soon as this one ia running, work on the
lower mill will commence. The lower
mill will be supplied with Bruokner
Revolving Cylinder, or rooster. When
this ID done, the company will imme-
diately begin the erection Of sixty-stamp
dry crushing mill. with two Stetefeldt
furnaces, on their mill-site on Stewards
Wonder Point, just above the Jacobs
mill. The company have secured the
right for the Stetefeldt to Panamint and
Rose Springs Districts. They have also
given orders for the manufacture of five
hundred thousand bricks, instead OF two
hundred thousand, rs first determined
upon. In addition thereto the company
will, in about ten days. put large num-

action OF the Common Council BY reso.
luton to that effect. He adds:
1t was with great satisfaction our citi.
zens found themselves 30 munificently
remembered in the many donations Of
their former townsman, Mr.. Lick; but
this gratitude was prompted as much by
the kind and generous spirit manifested
by the donor as by the magnitude Of the
donation. That this former action does
not represent Mr.. Lick's present wishes
or purposes is sufficient for us, for we
do not wish to retain one dollar which
Mr.. Lick may dosire to withdraw; and
upon this subject there can be no con.
troversy between Mr.. Lick and the city
of San Jose.-[S. F. Call, Z.
