10 say OF the CONSOLIDATED virginia.
Crowds of workmen fill every avail
able part of the surface grounds in and
about the shaft. Carpenters and mill
wriRhts framing timbers of every de-
scription; stone masons and bricklayers
preparing foundations for the machin-
cry; machinists. foundrymen and en-
gineers, repairing and replacing portions
of the despoiled machinery, and gangs
OF laborers assisting ut the different
kinds of work, and stacking up huge
piles OF square timbors for future use.
Everything is being done that is posi-
bic to replace the machinery and hoist
ing works ut the earliest hour that it
can be done. Timber and lumber is
arriving by the car load daily. The
foundation timbers for the hosting en-
gines are being placed in position, and
the north hosting engine is already on
its bed. The few timbers injured at the
mouth of the shaft have been replaced
and the foundation stills of the main
hosting works building are being laid 4.

getting well under way, and il no unfor-
seen circumstance happens to prevent,

works. The usual dividend OF $40 per
share was declared on the 7th, aggregat.

such works. The shaft is down 795 feet
