Intyre Gold Mining company. has resigned
thAt position, after year or moro OF steady
labor ON she company's property At
Unionville. He has devoted all his
time to that company. and is COM
PEELED by other pressing matters to
turn the active management over to others.
In note to The INDErENprNT he gives
short history of his work, with . josular
introduction, AZ follows:
A famous Irish Iatrtot. after having bsen
s1iled from his native land. said that he
''left his country for his country's good J"
/ have left the management of the Whitlaoh-
Union and Mcintyre Cola Mining COM
pnny no doubt t2) for the company's good.
My SUCCESSORS are Mr.. Geo. u. BooA.
business manager; Mr.. Saml. ArQai, mins
foreman, and Mr.. X. G. Bishop, hmslga-
mstor and superinsondent of the mill. To
my mind a better selection could not be
we'll known executive ability, Mr.. Argal q
mining man OF wide and varied expert
cnoe, and Mr.. Bishop in many parts OF the
| world has proven his sterling worth a. an
amalgamator and metallifsious mill man.
With this corps TO execute operations OF
| mine aud mill. it 10 safe to say that the IN
terests Of stockhoIders. large and small,
will not only be protected, but largely aug
msntsd.
The mine and mill are being run day and
night with every evidence of dividends bo.
ing declared In tho very near future.
When turned over the property ON ths
18th instant, tho main moline working
shaft--on which sinking was lately sus
pended-vss down 420 feet deep; sovera
hundred feet of levels com pleted show very
considerable ore in many places. In ar
upraise on orc. now about forty feet high
IN level No. west, four feet of quartz IL
exposed between walls with evidence o.
continuity upwards and longitudinally. II
uprsiss through ore in level No. east ar
OF . body was developed last week nearl,
eight feet thick between walls. In leve
No. 2 west, exists . fine showing Of thre,
feet of ore and In levels Nos. east ant
west considerable low grade ore 10 in sight
The bottom of shaft 10 40 feet below leve
No. 3. In this space no drifts have beer
opened SO far.
Together with the wealth producing pos
sibilities developed in the main working
there IL ore exposed in several shafts alont
tho vein. am proud to be able to state Il
the stockholders OF Helena, that l turned
over the mine and mill TO my successors IL
as good oiking condition as-to my mint
could be desired. Everything econom
ically arranged and in splendid shape 70
operation. The whole IL so arranged tina
the only change now necessary to be mad
il that of changing the auriferous rock o
the mine through the mill into money.
In conclusion will remark, that tbs min
and mining and milling plants are paid fo1
the company out of debt and some none
in the treasury.
With the foregoing pieces OF information
make my bow to the stockholders an
respectfully subscribe myself your humbl
servant, MICHAEL CooNEY.
