Some Mention of the Richmond and
Ruby. Dunderberg.


We copy the following from the Londor
Mining Journal of October 10th:
Richmond, 15A to 15A ; the usual tele.
gram from the mines at Eureka, Nevada
states that the weeks run was $50, 900
from GIL tons Of ore. During the weel
the refinery produced $4,000. The mana.
ger Sept. 22) reports that the 200 north
crosscut has been extended IA feet; ground
easier for drifting, and more favorable fol-
ore. The 800 crosscut has been driven "a
feet in favorablee ground for striking ore
the assure is regular, and the limestone on
each side is of a favorable character. The
900 north, west on assure, has been drifted
IA feet. The rock oil each side Of the fs.
sure is standing with ledge matter, and
looks very favorable. The chambers are
all looking well, and turning out the usual
quantity Of good ore. The furnaces are in
good working order, AID smelling large
quantities of ore.
RUBY-DUNDERBERG.
Ruby-Dunderberg Ga to 6h the ad-
verse legal decision appears not to have
been such a trifing matter as was inferred
last week. The Directors of the Connolly
the neighboring mine referred to-for-
ward the statement contained in the next
paragraph, while the Ruby-Dunderberg
officials write The kilograms published
in another column completely ~corroborate
the remarks which appeared in last weeks
Mining journal in regard to the effects Of
the adverse decision recently given against
the Ruby-Dunderberg Compass. The Di-
rectors' first telegram announcing this
caused no uneasiness, but as rumor as
usual greatly magnifes the bare facts, the
Directors telegraphed for further informa-
ton. The official reply is decisive, and
may be unhesitatingly accepted. 1t NAV
be noted also that the Ruby-Dunderberg
Company own n quarter share of the
Connolly mine. The reports Of the Super
intendent comprise two weeks working,
and it is stated that in November (by
which time the dead work will be nearly
completed q large output of ore is antici-
pated. A report on the furnaces has been
received from Mr.. Dowlen, who states that
the condition of one furnace and the ma
chinery is very good, and can be got ready
for smelling in a few days" Further ref
erence to this subject must be transferred
to the correspondence column, and it is
desirable that correspondents should at.
tach their names.
CONNOLLY.
The Directors of the Connolly write that
they have read the statement in last weeks
Mining Journal, under the heading of
"Ruby-Dunderberg, to the effect that the
decision which has just been given in their
favor nuaa ~ 4Ia .-,+ 90 oso1la;ox
mining company, and only affects a small
portion of non-orebearing shale, with some
surprise, and desire to ask why the Ruby
Dunderberg Company have gone to the ex-
pense of applying for a patent for a piece
of ground they now state to be non-ore-
bearing? Why, upon finding the granting
of that patent was opposed, they persisted
in fighting that opposition? Why, they
continually refused this company's repre-
sentative an inspection Of their under
ground works, which he was DESTROYS of
obtaining for the purpose Of satisfying
himself that this company's right were not
being encroached upon? Why, after hav-
ing applied for a patent for one piece OF
ground, they then, upon finding that rich
ore was being raised from ground not
within the limits of the ground they were
applying for, changed the direction OF the
boundaries Of the ground so sought to be
patented, and endeavored to completely
cut through the property belonging to this
company, and how the opposition by this
company to such proceedings can be called
"a the suit of ~neighboring mining COM
pany?" If the Directors of the Ruby
Dunderberg Company will answer these
questions to their shareholders, the Direc-
tors of the Connolly Company will be glad.
EUREKA CONSOLIDATED.

with a capital of f100, 900, to work a valu-
BILE property on the Richmond and Eureka
mineral belt, is reported to be filling up
their subscription list most satisfactorily.
