scribe to-day that there were the best OF
that the carbonate ore strike !
in the southern part Of tie county IS
permanent and lasting, and II the output
Of ore should continue to increase in the
next two weeks as in the past two, . silver /
smelter stack will be added to the present
plant at San Pedro. Mr.. Raunhcim SAID
his company was watching the present
development with earncstncsS and,
since fresh supply OF water mad
been developed, there was no bStacic IN
the way to prevent the erection Of Il MY
ton silver stack for the purpose OF treating
custom ores. He said sixty days hence
would in all probability not only see such
a stack producing silver bars at san Pedro,
but would also find that the camp was
well along toward securing direct railroad
connection with the outside world. The
for Il full vcritication OF these
two grand prophecies for san Pedro are
certainly very ilattcring.
