MEXICAN MINES.
ID. NJ. Burns Interviewed Regarding Min
ing Property in Mexico.

ing Property In Mexico.
D. NJ. Burns, G. S. Givens, Frank Water
house, A n. Buchanan and other Sacra-
mentans went to Mexico a few years since,
and purchased the Candelaria and other
mines, and have accumulated considerable
wealth in their workings.
In an interview with reporter Mr.. Burns
gave description of the State of Durango,
where the mines are located He thinks it
one of the richest mining sections on the
continent. He SAYS:
The Contra Estaca Consolidated Mexico
Mining Company has incorporated with a
capital stock of ten million dollars, divided
into one hundred thousand shares, and at
the stockholders meeting held at the COM
pany's Office, 221 Market street, San Fran
cisco, D. NJ. Burns, c. z. Waterhouse, C. S.
Givens Samuel Jones and A. n Buchanan
were elected Directors, and at the meeting
of the Board of Directors the following Off
GERS were elected, to wit: d. n. Burns,
President and Superintendent; A. n.
Buchanan, Vice-President; C. S. Owens,
Secretary and Treasurer.
The above incorporation has acquired
a group of nine mines, among which are
the Contra Estaca, Descubridora, Guadalupe
and Sinaloa, situated on the game vein, and
the FL Carmen, distant 200 feet on vein
running parallel with the other All OF
these mines are near San Dimas, State OF
Durango, Mexico, and in the same mineral
belt as the celebrated Candelaria mine.
which is owned by the same parties, aud
which is at the present time paying hand
some dividends to its stockholders. The
incorporators OF the Contra Estaca Consoli-
dated Mexico Mining Company have in
contemplation the opening of the above
group OF mines on large scale. The COM
ing month fine drill air compressor will
be forwarded to the mine, and with an
abundance of water-power to drive all ma
chinery there is certainty of this property
assuming a paying condition in the near
future
The Contra Estaca mine is one of the
famous mines of that famous district, is
yer-bearing, carrying 90 per cent gold.
The ledge is twenty-five feet wide, and was
worked by the ancients down to depth of
500 feet, and was in fine ore at the time the
mine was blown up by designing persons
during the war of independence. Fifty
thousand shares of the capital stock have
been set aside as working capital, to be
disposed of at 81 per share, Of which num-
Der 10000 shares have already been sold
The amount of $4,000 is the estimated cost
OF the labor and machinery necessary to
drive the tunnel 800 feet from the creek
at the mill site on the ledge to encounter
the pay chutes. One hundred feet of the
tunnel has been run during the past month
and is now in fair milling ore. The ore is
free milling and of high grade. There is
sufficient free water power to run hun
dred-stamp mill"

Attorney Gavigan. arrested for felony

Hospital.
Last night Mrs. e. S. Jones, whose hus-
band keeps saloon on Morton street, at
tempted suicide at the Grand Hotel She

ing her. She can say it to his face now.
w. H. Mills expresses himself in favor of
a railroad being built around the city front
by the State. It would add materially. he
states, to the prosperity of the city. More
money is paid for carriage in San Francisco,
he states, than in any other city in the I'M
ion. If such a measure is not adopted Mr.
Mills fears that the greater portion of this
city's wholesale trade will eventually be
transacted in Oakland
General Cluuie is developing into n bu-
morist. At the Grady banquet last night
Clunie, after a glowing tribute to the serv-
ices of Grady, turned to Mr. Buckley and
said that he had worn the mantle of the
local Democracy for years, and lie defied
anybody to put finger on any act of his
that was dishonorable. and that he had
never advocated any measure that was not
calculated to benefit the community and his
party.

Interesting Lecture.

Rev. A. c. Herrick delivered the first of
q course of lectures at Calvary Baptist
Church last evening to large audience.

He is keen observer, takes pictures of
every point of interest, and his descriptive
powers are such that the hearers imagine
themselves at the point described. His
lecture last evening was California and the
Big Trees" The next two will be +" I'm and
Around the Yosemite Valley" and His
toric Places and Monuments in the United

seated alone on the piazza of the hotel observing
the passing throngs in Broadway. Last year he
decided to build a house for himself, and he at
tended 10 the details of the construction of the
handsome dwelling in which he died, and put the
finishing touches on it only last spring He took
as much interest in having it made comfortable
and convenient as though he was a young man who
expected to live in it for many years
The funeral will take place tomorrow at the
house in Saratoga. Mr.. PhelpSs body will be
placed in the family vault in Greenwood.
