weekly reports to the officers of the company. from
the time he assumed charge Of the property TIL
September IL the day on which he turned it over
70 his successor. About the middle of June he
warned his employers of an unfavorable look in the
mine and in every subsequent report without SIN
Gle exception he told them That he was removing
the reserves. while the prospecting work. which
amounted 10 from 500 to 400 feet of drifts and
wines a week, failed to open any new large bodies

On July 27. in response to an order to take out
ore enough to pay the dividend declared on the 9th
of August. Mr.. DAILY wrote to President Ames as
follows:
This means that the best ore in the minc must be
uercilessly Quilted. l do not think TINS Is good JUG
ment but am powerless to prevent IL; can Opy enter

SILVER AND LEAD DfsCOVEIED.
Abont half mile from the mine have been de-
scribing and further down the mountain. some
miners began tc dig two or three months ago. upon
All outcrop that assayed well in gold. As they cut
n tunnel into the HILL they took out some low grade
gold quartz stained with oxide of iron and appa-
reptly identical with that which is found III the
copper mine. After passing through this they
struck vein of galena which is the first that has
been found in the ncghbOrhOod, and seems TO he OF
large dimensions The ore assays from forty to 40
ounces of sill yer to ton. and about 30 per cent of
lead A lot which sacked and taken TO the
New-York and New Mexico Mining and Smelling
Companys works at Los Cerillos was returned as
running sixty ounces OF silver to ton and 30 per
cent of lead. This is very important discovery.
The men who made it trespassers and of course,
have no legal rights but Colonel Gillette told ME that
II would he the policy of the company to treat them
generously and TO paw them all that their discovery
is worth. He expects to buy them out, and to set %
force of men to work Immediately to develop the
deposit and to ascertain its extent and character
II is certainly remarkably promising prospect
While at the Canon del Aqua, visited several
old mines that haze been worked in former years
