LOCAL MINING REVIEW.

During the past week there has been
shipped in bullion from Phoebe 39,6Ol.
The Raymond & Ely pump has worked
steadily at eight and a half strokes per
minute during the week, and although
no! worked to its full capacity, drains
the water as fast as they desire. The
mine is turning out the usual amount OF
ore and shipping bullion rapidly. In
the Meadow Valley affairs are about the
same. The Alps mill has been doing
some good work, as up to Friday night
they turned out STA, 900 in bullion. The
mine is looking we'll, the average amount
Of ore extracted being fifteen tons daily.
The Newark mill has been steadily at
work during the week. The American
Flag mine and mill go along steadily,
and are adding their quota to the bullion
shipments. The Phoebe and Antilles are
worked steadily with good prospects.
The recent pay days have revived BUSH
ness and the present outlook indi-
Gates favorable times for Phoebe before
long.

rate order and running well, although
not up to its full capacity-eight and a
half strokes per minute, at which rate
they manage to keep clear of water.

tenth and eleventh levels are being run

amount of ore extracted from them il
about seventy-five tons. Ore from the
eighth level and works we'll. The CON-
pany's mills at Bullionville are turning
out bullion rapidly. At a clean up last
week eight bars were turned out at one
time. The general appearance of the
mine gives great confidence to the man
agement.
ALPS.
Work in all parts of this mine is
pushed ahead vigorously, the upper
levels yielding at the rate Of fifteen tons
daily with plenty of ore in sight. In the
lower level work is prosecuted with
vigor, as the expectation is that they are
very near the ledge. The quality of the
ore in the upper levels is about the same
as has been extracted heretofore. They
are extracting enough ore from this mine
to keep the mill running steadily, bu
for the accommodation of chloriders, they
put aside their ore occasionally and worl
patches for them.
