=" great big mine.
The Adams Hill mines are no, being
worked with as much yigor a. thew Tor.
merly we're, owing 10 the general depres.
sion. but 3 number Of them are sending
along good shipments. The General Lee,
Lone Pine. Macon City, May Lode, Frazer
and Molino. B~ullwhscker and Silver Lick
mines are among the present ore produc.
ers. The Bullwhaeker has furnished
about fifty tons Of lead ore since the
richmond Oompsny resumed purchasing,
and the Silver Lick. up TO the time Of this
writing, 50 tons, the average OF which ran
about sl2l per ton. Several tons Of this
was settled for at the furnaces 81 S442 per
ton. We bear that large quantities OF
nuxing ores have been broken down in
his mine, awaiting the resumption Of
smelling Of the furnaces for 9 market.
We hear nothing definite In relation 10
the Richmond and Eureka Con. mines,
except thai 81 the Richmond . few tribut-
ers are at work. The miners who were
laid on at the Eureka Con. will, we think,
be put on again as soon as some needed
NUMBERING Is done in the mine. We do
not hear when operations will be resumed
at the furnaces, but az there 10 no longer
any fear OF very damaging results TO arise
from the Government timber suits, we
presume that the companies will fire up az
soon as they have enough ore on hand for
9 run OF three or foul months ahead.
Some OF the n~eighboriDg districts are
as active az general circumstances will
warrant. The Geddes 4 Bertrand mine
IN Secret Canyon is being worked under
lease, close TO the surface, and the ore
broken down 10 being lesched on . small
scale by the lessees on the premises.
AT Silverado two parties are leasing the
Rescue and Queen mines, and are taking
out some very rich ore.
e. Z. Phillips is pegging away al bis
mines In Diamond District. and we learn
that be is getting out some high grade ore.
Hon. Thos. Robinson is taking ore out
Of the Bay State mine, al Newark, and
has started mp the mill again.
Cortez is the best camp In the county AZ
present, and the Cortez mines are un-
doubtedly the biggest In the State under
operation today. The miners who come
from there all agree 10 the same thing and
say there Is no end OF ore 10 be seen. As
the results from the mill are given 10 the
regular reports at the Office in London, II
Is not necessary to say here that the ore
averages we'll. A new tunnel, we are told.
has been started to tap the vein In the
Garrison mine 400 feet deeper than any
point yet reached In the mine.
We have good reports from Stafford Dis
trict. The 0nondago is producing con-
ore, which works al from $500
TO $500 per ton. The Good Luck yields
500 TO $3.50 ore. The Comet mine IL
lying IDLE al present, but has produced
ore that ran from $50 TO $500 per ton.
The Contention mine 10 Q good property.
The last run made In ii was nine tons OF
ore that worked up into the hundreds.
Several mines 10 White Pine District,
White Pine county, are producing ore.
As there are no reduction works in opera
tion we learn that the ore from that dis
trict this Summer will all be shipped by
Mormon teams to Eureka and thence by
rail TO the Selby reduction works ct Vallejo
Junction In California.
The Dimmick mine. at Typo. we hear,
is turning out large quantities OF good
average ore, and ONE very rich.
