The Bluejacket.

Col. Brodhead brought down num-
Der of samples from all parts of the Blue
jacket lode Thursday and finds that
thirty inches of the vein contains ore,
the lowest grade of which is ~ ozs., the
highest grade 26O, and the average 1872
ozs., silver, per ton. This ore is COM
posed entirely of iron, silver, copper,
gold and silica. The percentage of ex-
cessfve iron is from 20 to 40, rendering
the ore OF most desirable nature for
smelling. The gross cost of transport
ing and reducing the ore is estimated at
SIG per ton, and ore from other portions
of the vein that assays even much less
than the samples alluded to can be made
highly profitable at this rate. The body
is exhaustless. An increased force of
miners will soon be put to work on the
mine under A. II. Dollarhide, foreman,
and Mr.. Brodhead estimates daily yield
hereafter of six or eight tons, possibly
more, which viii be shipped to the
smelter here.

Copper Ores.

There are some copper miners in Altur-
as County, and other portions of Idaho,
who are interested in keeping posted on
the market values Of that mineral. An
official monthly report from Liverpool,
England, just received. states that the
arrivals of copper in that port have been
for the month just passed, very heavy,
and that the deliveries of bar copper
have continued on an extensive scale.
The smelters are reported as acting very
cautiously in their purchase Of furnace
material, influenced by fear of the Amer
lean supplies, and that the business has
been running on somewhat restricted
scale. The total visible supply was
44,305 tons, not including charters due,
and the imports OF copper from the first
of January, 1884, to date were 81 ,0S2 tons,
being an increase over the same time
last year of 5,207 tons.
Mr.. A. Horribly Lewis, of the Liverpool
firm Of Jas. Lewis & Sons, is now in
Montana. He is reported as saying that
the "copper" market in England depends
altogether on the product OF Montana,
and that there were Is, 900 tons of cop
per shipped to England last year from
the United States, of which Montana
produced about two-thirds.' Chill,
heretofore the largest producer, of cop
per in the world, will, in his opinion,
be surpassed by the output from the
United States this year.

Lost River.


A correction is in order this morning
in connection with an item which APP
peared in yesterdays issue stating that
Reid's mines, on Lost River, were about
six miles from Huston. They are at
least twenty five or thirty miles, being
in the direction OF Muldoon, and about
six miles over a natural road from the
headwaters of Lost River. The Mann
moth mine again seems to have been
misunderstood by our informant, as it
contains little copper, while the bulk of
the copper for the new furnaces will
come from the Copper King group.
