THE CEDRAL SILVER MINES.
The Mines-What they are-Their Product
and Extent - The Nature of the
Surrounding Country-Indians-
- Agricultural - Ranch and
Dairy Prospects,.

=, The Cedral silver mines, of Musquiz, Mex
leo, 100 miles west of Eagle Pass, and min.
miles distant from Santa Rosa de Musquiz
lie at the base of the Santa Rosa Mountains
They have been worked for about one hun
dred and fifty years, and it is estimated tina
prior to passing into the hands of the presen
owners, the Cedral mining and smelling com
pany, upwards of half million tons of ore
have been raised. In this instance, as in the
other, old worked mines within twenty five
mile radius no mining products were found
upon the surface, and the inference is that the
ore raised has been of such valuable charac-
ter as to be completely worked up. The
company are at present only exploring and de-
veloping, but there is now quarter OF a mil
lion Of valuable ore in sight. ..
The hacienda (works) enclosure, extends
over four acres, water abounds, and there is
the usual machinery, smelling and refining
works, brick mills, saw mills and railroad
between the coal and silver mines. One hun
dred and fifty persons are on the pay roll, which
supports village with six hundred and fifty
inhabitants.
One remarkable feature connected with
mining in this district is the close proximity of
coal, which Is found in abundance within half
a mile from the silver mines. Under the orig
inal workers the coal was hoisted on men S
backs at the rate of eight tons per day, costing
dollar and half per ton. The new man.
agement can hoist one hundred tons daily, and
deliver it at the silver mines at a cost of twen-
ty-6ve cents per ton. by this cheap and plen-
tiful supply of coal the company can, when
the new machinery arrives, work fifty tons OF
ore per day and raise the necessary coal to
work it.
The base of the mountains are underlaid
with several large and important veins of coal
semi-anthracite in character which yields 65
per cent. of firm coke, well adapted for
smelling purposes.
To country almost barren Of wood, the
existence of coal in unlimited quantities solves
a problem WHICH long vexed miners, the diff
Guilty of working mines by machinery, and of
smelling the ore.
Like all large deposits in old countries, the
ore is Of low G ade, yielding thirty to fifty
ounces per ton, butso far the water level has
not been reached. and a greater yield is antici-
pated. This is, however, of little importance,
as the low expense in working will make the
