Pioche daily record. [volume] (Pioche, Nev.) 1872-1876, 1875-06-13

RAYMOND Il ELY.-We are glad to say
that the temporary Inconvenience and
annoyance occasioned by the defec-
ton of portion of the pumping
machinery has been entirely obviated.
Since our last report, a duplicate Of that
portion of the machinery which proved
defective, has arrived and been put in
place, and everything in connection with
the pump works satisfactorily. Sinking
in the main shaft was resumed on
the 10th with gratifying results. The
western levels still continue to be deve!
oped with moderate degree of success,
over 40 tons of good milling ore being
daily raised. Nearly 300 men are en-
ployed in various capacities, in and
around the mine, and the excellent sys-
tenn of supervision under which the work
is being prosecuted is of itself guaran-
tee OF success. 1t we take this mine as
the exponent of the enterprisng determi-
nation that has all along marked this
district, even the most skeptcal must
admit that the ultimate success Of Phoebe
rs great center of developed mineral
wealth is simply question of the near
future.
The WEST SIDE.--On Friday last we
took tour of inspection through this
portion of the district and found much
of interest to note. Messrs. Sheppard,
Howard and Allen, who have Just COM
menced operations about two miles west
of town, and who have tunneled about
20 feet, have vein of about % inches
in width, which looks exceedingly favor
able. At the Chrisholm mine further
south and vest, the ledge has been
stripped for considerable distance,
horizontally, with very good showing
There are about 200 tons of remunerative
ore on the dump, with plenty more in
sight. At the Victoria yves. Williams
new location) work is being pushed
steadily, with gratifying results. Will
liams and party have been at work but
an exceedingly short time. They are
down about 30 feet and are sinking on q
perpendicular ledge of three feet il
width. The ore is of extraordinary
richness and looks decidedly good. Yves
is sanguine of the matter and conclude!
they will soon strike it big" The in
dications certainly point that way
There are numerous isolated parties Of
prospectors at work through this place
but with no tangible results as yet W.
will have occasion to refer to the forego
ing mines before long.
LOUIS CLAREsY, one of the proprietors
of the Miners saloon, had stroke 0
paralysis on Friday morning. TIL,
whole of his body, even to the head an,
eyes, were affected by the stroke, 81
thaf he had no movement of his body
head or eyes. DR.. Harrenburg wa
called to attend him, and yesterda
Saturday he was able to move and eat
He is in fair way of recovering.
DEMONSTRATING is still continued O
the east and west drifts at tho 7O0-foo
level. The ore streak reported hereto
fore still continues presenting the sam
width and appearance. Work is yieo,
onsly prosecuted and change in a,
pearance is looked for soon. Nothin
else of Importance to note.
