Harry Gormley, one Of the opium fends
Of Bodie. says the Standard, and under in
dictment as one OF the ore. amalgam and
bullion robbers, made his escape from the
county Jail at Bridgeport Saturday. 1t
seems that the officers discovered late in
the evening that the bullion robbers had
cut a hole through the wall OF the Jail,
preparatory to escaping during the night.
The prisoners were placed in irons and
locked up. two in each Of the wooden cells,
and two in each Of the iron cells. This
was considered sufficient, and the repair
ing OF the hole in the wall was left until
daylight. Gormley and Sam Chung, the
Chinese murderer, were ironed and locked
in one OF the iron cells together. During
the night Gormley took off his irons and
placed them upon his bed. reached out and
unlocked his cell door, walked out, crawled
through the hole in the wall and escaped,
leaving Sam Chung ironed In the cell.

The above we copy from the Daily Stage

Nevada. Wells worked like a good fellow
to make the Stage a success, and did make
a lively sheet OF it in more ways than one;
but being politically deluded his seed was
unproductive, and hence the change. I'm

Plenty OF Work I'm Montana 70,
Hard-ROck Miners.
A telegram was received by the Miners
Union a few days ago from Belmont, Mon
tana, asking If any miners could be spared
from the Comstock. Major Gearing. Sec.
rotary Of the Union, telegraphed back to
ascertain how many miners are wanted,
and has received the following letter in
reply from L. @. Trent, Superintendent Of
the Belmont Mining Company, under date
Of the 18th instant:
I have consulted the managers here, and
find that employment can be furnished to
forty good miners who are used to hard
rock. We do our work by contract. Our
ore is very low-grade gold ore, but we all
have mills and make 1t pay. Contractors
always make 81 per day in this district.
The rate per day is $3.25 for miners, and
1T is all we can afford to pay, as the ore will
not average $40 per ton, but living il
cheap, the country is well settled, the
mines are dry and mostly worked through
tnnnels. All are we'll ventilated in the
silver districts. At Butte the pay is SO. 80,
but the mines are unhealthy and wet. I
can find employment for about forty men,
II know they are coming, 30 that no other
arrangements would be made. ! got the
following estimates yesterday OF the num-
Der Of men wanted: Belmont, 20; Hickey,
10; Gloster, 6, and scattering 8. Many Of
the larger districts are very short. The
number Of districts requiring men are :
Phillipsburg, 80; Jefferson, about rs;
Trapper. l am informed. is short about 100
miners. The reason for this stoppage is
that the inducements for prospecting have
been so good, and the mines are ell doing
well and increasing, and no miners have
come here this season.

EUREKA CONSOLIDATED.

Eastern Capitalists Seeking Infor-
nation.
A correspondent Of the New York Daily
Mining News OF the 10th instant asks the
following questions:
MANY readers of your paper would
doubtless be pleased to learn some partic-
ulars concerning the present status of the
Eureka Consolidated Mining Company, Of
Nevada; as, for instance, which levels
yield the present output Of ore; also, is
the company working the tx. K" proper
ty, which they recently bought? What
distance is the new shaft from the old one;
and what depth in the new shaft will prob
ably disclose ore bodies ?"
This is only one out Of several other in
quiries in regard to the Eureka Consoli-
dated property which we have received
within the past few days. As the compa-
ny have no Office or representative in this
city we are compelled to rely on Eureka ex-
changes for information regarding the
doings OF this companys Will our breth-
rem OF the Eureka press furnish us with
the information asked for above?
From the best information to be attained
we can answer the above -interrogatories as
follows: The Eureka Con. is taking out
ore on all the levels, from the first down to
the twelfth, where there is q body Of water
down to the fourteenth, which will proba-
bly, remain there until the new shaft is
completed and it is pumped out. The
water has been there q long time. and in
no manner affects the upper workings Of
the mine. There are a few men working
in the K. X. property. The distance from
the new shaft to the old one, is about 800
feet. The question as to swhat depth in
the new shaft will probably disclose the
ore bodies" is impossible for any human
being to answer. The new shaft has at
