A SOUTH AMERICAN MINER
Mr.. Edward L. Sothers, q young
mining expert, sent here direct
from Bolivia, Upper Peru, to ex-
anime the processes of reduction
of Comstock ores, called upon MS
yesterday, in company with Mr..
Picotte, Of the Sutro "Independ-
ent." Mr.. Sothers represents a
company Of wealthy capitalists of
Valparaiso, the principal port and
commercial city of Chill. This
company are extensively engaged
in silver quartz mining in the
region of the Loa river, State of
Bolivia, and have sent out Mr.. 5.
to inspect and purchase mills and
machinery to reduce their ores.
So far as his observations have
been extended here, he deems the
method used on the Comstock as
far superior in many respects to
that now adopted by his company.
The Burleigh drills are new to him,
and will comprise portion of his
purchases. A forty stamp mill.
with all the modern appliances, is
now being built for him in San
Francisco, and will be shipped i'm
mediately. He claims, however,
that the system of reduction as
now in operation in the Bolivia
mines, is superior to ours in that
ore can be worked up closer to its
gross value than it is here; and
this, too, without the many COM
binations used in the Nevada mills.
Mr.. Sothers is delighted with the
magnificent machinery used ON the
Comstock. as he is also with the
systematic and clever manner in
which the mines are developed.
He is q native of South America,
but speaks English fuently, and is
evidently a gentleman of culture
and refinement. His glowing de-

to Denver, Colorado, to inspect the
mills and mines OF that country.
