MONTEREY, Mexico, January "a, 1885.
Colonel J. W. Bradley. San Antonio, Texas.
DEAR Sm-We have selected. In the
State Of ramaulipas, Republic Of Mexico,
In the San Carlos mountains, valuable
leads of silver ore. These researches
have been made by parties Of lifelong
experience In opening and operating
mines In some of the States OF the Amer
lean Union. The same party has been
constantly In the mountains OF Mexico
since May, 1882. and has made valuable
discoveries, and has the mines already
denounced" from the Mexican Govern
ment MS the scientific discoverer, and Is
now upon such announcements" In full
and complete possession, put so by the
Mexican Government. These mines are
unprecedentedly rich, regular flssure
veins, which grow richer the lower they
sink into the earth. The ores assay from
$50 TO the ton and upwards. Wood and
water are abundant all around the
mines. The crude bullion can be ship
ped to England, without duty, on
through bills Of lading, from Monterey,
at about the same rates OF freight rs to
New York.
A ten-ton engine, smelter and fixtures
will cost about $1,000 laid down and ex-
pense In setting up and getting ores,
coal, etc, and all the works In full blast
added--say 5000 to $1,000 After this the
mines and machinery will be self-sus-
tanning and the profits yield abundantly.
| To summarize as follows: Ten tons of
crude ore, at 500 TO ton (far below low
est estimate OF value Of ore) we have
crude bullion, valued at mines $1,000;
from one days run at all expense Of not
over $50, all told. This bullion is run
out into so pounds pig silver and lead,
which the Milmos will advance upon in
Monterey at the rate Of 81 per pig. Out
OF ten tons, one days, run ga hours)
we can have $50 pig bars OF bullion,
which, landed In Monterey, we can OBJ
tain an advance upon OF 81, which will
make the product OF the works about
| $500 per day, Mt lowest estimate one
third value OF Its products.
This Is what Is now being done 40
miles this side, where the ore Is badly
mixed with base metal.
For the money put In to buy and estab-
fish the machinery above named we will
give one-third of all the net products OF
the mines-a full one-third interest In
the mines worked.
We have an experienced smelter-one
OF 20 years. experlence-to go In charge
OF the works; one good engineer to run
the machinery, and the balance OF the
labor cheap.
Can get charcoal furnished at the
smelter for 81 per cargo of 800 pounds,
and get the bullion hauled to Monterey
for 81 per cargo Of 800 pounds, distance
OF 100 miles.
This Is all 1t will take to get works In
full blast, under the control of men who
know what mines and minerals are.
No speculation In the matter! No
stock to sell! No mines to pack OF on
anybody The value is known and real
lied, and time, experience and money
spent In obtaining these vast leads Of
rich ores are simply put In as working
capital along with any one who desires
to invest with his countrymen.
III desire TO see the property, will
have parties investing visit same. by
rail to Monterey, thence to Linares by
stage or overland conveyance, then 90
miles into the mountains.
All these interests are far above what
l have here represented. Yours truly
W. ii. Is.
