THE MINES.

The San Francisco Stock Exchange
of the 10th contains the following
son the fourth page of this issue of
the stock Exchange will be found a let
ter from the Eureka SENTINEL, de-
scribing the Adams Hill mining prop
ertv. located in Eureka district. Why
many mines like the Richmond or
Eureka Consolidated have not yet
been developed in that district, has
been often wondered at. That the Ad-
ans Hill property possesses ore bodies
unrivaling in richness the Richmond
itself, is a belief becoming and
more fixed. From the natural posi-
ton of the property no other sensible
conclusion can be arrived at. we
look with unusual interest for the re-
suit of the works now being erected at
the mine."
GILA.-A letter of the Sd instant,
from the superintendent to the Office
in San Francisco and published in the
STOCK Rep0rt. says: "Work at the
mine is going forward as usual. The
shaft is now down II feet below 200
foot station, and very hard at The bot
TOM: level south from 200 is in 1872
feet: started q cross-cut from this level
for the footwall yesterday, so feet in
from the shaft. The connection with
winze and the level below has been
made. and We shall continue this winze
| on down To make connection with level
from shaft. Are getting a little ore
still north of the Wine and above the
level, but the quantity is limited. Will
get mine started On the 9th, and can
run the balance OF the month on tail
ings and what little ore we have cut"
TYPO COMA letter published in
the San Francisco Stock Report, dated
the LIST, says: Since my last, Deem
Der I'D, have made four shipments of
bullion, closing the half month this
morning with No. 20. Nc. 81 assays
3d. 100 %; 6S ASSAYS S5,532 90; 50 as
says $i,S49 10; 20 assays 1887 50.
This makes six shipments for the fit
teen days since starting, and shows a
product of S28,sSl 80 gold and silver
and $500 lead. Mines are looking
we'll and furnace running as usual.
We have had several storms, but |
think We can keep up the supply of
coal.
