LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
LOCAL MINING REVIEW.

During the past week there has been
shipped $2S, 1891 in bullion, by Wells,
Fargo & Co., an increase Of $4,000 on
the previous week. At the Raymond &
Ely mine the same work continues with
out change of note and are turning out
about the usual amount Of ore. In the
Meadow Valley excavations are being
made in the mine for the pump and
tanks and also for bob pit, Ohloriding
and other work continues the same.
The contractors in the American Flag
still continue the work of sinking on the
main shaft, whilst small amount of
work goes on in the upper levels. Sink
ing on the main shaft of the Phoebe, is
also going on rapidly, the prospects
being fattering. Work at the Alps
mine is continued without change,
whilst at the mill they are crowded with
custom ore that is daily arriving. Work
on the Antilles, in the cross-cut. is pro-
crossing regularly. In the HUM and
Hunt, the owners are pushing the work
of extracting ore as rapidly as possible
and with good success. The owners of
the Washington and Creole are extract
ting ore rapidly and shipping the same
to the Alps mill for reduction, ten men
being employed at the mine. The two
smelling furnaces that are to be erected,
are engaging the attention of business
men who know, that rs soon as they are
started. affairs will improve in the camp
as each one will probably place to work,
either directly or indirectly, nearly two
hundred men, besides the miners who
will be engaged in extracting smelling
ore. With the erection of these fur
naces and the pump of the Meadow
Valley starting to work, wo may look for
increased prosperity in the camp in
mining matters before great lapse OF
time.

are meeting with fair success. The
pump during the past week has worked
we'll at the regular stroke, no change in
which will be made for the present. The
thirty stamp mill at Bullionville still con
tinues doing good work in turning GU
bullion, as the increase in the bullion
shipments for the past week evidence.
