this morning and was ut once sought out
ny this scribe and fired upon interrogatire-
~. He reports that the company's third
copper furnace was started up OH Thurs
day for steady work and everything Is
running smoothly. OF Santa lie county
coke 900 tons month is now being con-
sumed there in the production OF copper
matte. The first car load of machinery
ior the cable tranlNay leading fom the
mines to the furnaces arrived at Cerrllos
Yesterday and is to-day being transported
t. Pedro 10y teams. The new 100
ton furnace will probably he
shipped hv the contractor, Mr. bartlett
II rortand, Me-, within thirty days
Some delays have been caused by the
great rush OF orders ior mining machin-
cry, the eastern manufacturers being two
months behind with their work, but the
in4ersoli steam drills and air COmpresSOrs
will probably he at hand in sixty days.
The company has now on the road from
Boston one mile Of five inch water pipe
whi,h is badly needed. This must be
aid and the water squirting through it be-
fore the big gold mill can he placed
in operation. In the mines Contractor
Godfrey is employing 20J men.
Mr. Godfrey has contract to do
Il certain amount OF work opening
new ore DO. is, While at tie same
time he delivers on the dump all ores re-
qured to supply the furnaces at stipuIat-
Ell price per ton. This arrangement re-
lieves Manager Raunheim of superintend-
ing the underground workings and is eX-
pected to work a large saving to the COM
| pany in the cost OF production. 1--WE are
spending lots of money for Improvements
aud We are are also making Il little of ii
| back on the side" said Mr. Raunhem
'and We are getting on swimmingly and
/ building up the best business town in
New Mexico, the Albuquerque CORE

TIE CARBONATE BELT.
Messrs. S. d. Baldwin and John King, OF
the Lincoln-Lucky company, arrived from
Pedro last night. The report that Messrs.
King and Wright had sold out to the COM
pany their interests in the property was
enron GUS. Mr.. King is still acting as
superintendent. He reports Il fine lot OF
ore in sight, and regular shipments were
resumed early this week, The ore is
carefully sorted and is going forward To
| the SoCorrO smelterS ut the rate of q car
load per day.
The object of the many conferences
! he'd Of lace by the members of this com
pany developed to-day. Owing to the
shifting about OF their ore body they have
sunk several shafts ut great expense and
found that they would not touch the vein
owing TO its unce; tain, zls-zagging course.
How to remedy this was the question, and
it will he solved by sinking diamont drill
Lucky property. The company has en-
| tered into contract with the Messrs.
Reynolds TO furnish the steam drill and do
this work. These gentlemen and New
York parties have formed the Carbonate
| rruspe, ting d Diamond Drill company,
and have already ordered the necessary
machinery. BY this dill process the
/ full extent Of the carbonate belt rs it ex-
lists under the LincolnL Lucky claims will
he revealed, and the company will also
| 10 prospecting on other claims IN the
| district. This is ali i'll the line OF prog
reSs and means that the full scope and
extent OF the carbonate deposits under
San ledfO mountain will he tested in Il
| few weeks. In the mean time the Lin
coln-l.u ky people will continue to follow
their VEN and ship ore daily.

! Gray & Richards Chester mine is show
ing up more lavorably every day. The

producer.
