IN THE SLOGAN,

Miners There Arc not Very Dependent
Over the Outlook.
Robert NcElhoney. Who has just returned
from the Kaslo county, says that money ia
very scarce through The SLOGAN regions and
are not DISCOURAGED a particle, having the
utmost confidence that better times will
soon prevail md the camp become lively
and prosperous. "The mines are all right
and the ore, being high grade, could be
prices for lead and silver" he said. "but
the closing down Of smeltsrs all over the
country or their refusal to buy ores, and
the more important fact that the richer the
ore the greater loss mine operators
would sustain. has influenced them to
cease the extraction of ore In . great
measure and to contine operations to de-
velopment work only. Being confident that
sooner or later the market will brace NJ,
they do not feel disposed to rob their mines
merely for the purpose Of keeping up ore
shipments. The ore will lose nothing of
value In it's rock-bound homo. The Wash
ington. Alamo. Mountain Chief. Freddie
Lee and Other properties, heretofore brought
prominently to the notice of the mining
world, will come to tho front as heavy and
lasting producers. and the onti,e Kaslo.
SLOGAN belt will ultimately witness a season
OF activity such as characterized Leaavilio
or the early camps In Nevada.
1.-THE Duncan river county Ia bound to
command the attention Of mining men at
no distant day. Reports are in circulation
70 the effect that but little has been dis
covered in that section. but such reports
originated in the minds OF mon who never
reached the mining field proper. being I'M
willing to face the obstacles thai beset tho
route from Haussr lake 10 the headwatsrs
of the Duncan.
THE Golden Eagle lode and other dis
e%overies in the same neiRhborhood will
bring prosperity TO that district. even
though nothing more 10 ever unearthed.
There ia no duty 10 pay on gold ores, and
where water power is convenient, rs it ia in
this district. the ore can be worked on the
ground almost az cheaply as in California.
Those who have invested money in the
mines OF that portion of British Columbia
need not have tbs least apprehension re-

TO COAL BIG VESSELS.
The New Elevator at Murphy's Wharf
Nearing Completion.

The coal elevator which is being erected
at Murphy's wharf at the foot of Houston
street, is nearing completion and will be
ready foroperations in about three weeks.
The elevator is being constructed under
the supervision of Mr.. J. W Biddle, a
competent and practical workman. 1t is
owned jointly by the Tide Water Com
pany and the SlOss Iron and Steel Com
pany, of Birmingham, Ala. The cost of
construction will approximate $4,000
The elevator will fill "A long felt want at
this port, as it VIII facilitate the coaling OF
vessels which heretofore have not been
able to get a sufficient supply during a
short stay here Many steamers usually
take in enough coal to last them until
they get to Norfolk where they are sup
piled at the coaling station.
The capacity of the Savannah coal ele-
vatOr is sufficient to supply any steamer
at the shortest notice and in the quickest
time. 1t will hold LOCO tons, and bv its
improved methods can put 300 tons in a
vessel in an hour and a half
The dimensions Of the bin are 90 feet
high, l03 feet long and % feet wide. The
elevator is 96 feet from the bottom Of the
pit, on the wharf TO the position where
the GOALS cmptied into the bin. 1t has lO7
buckets, each holding sixty pounds of coal,
winch IS a total OF . 40 pounds of coal lift
ed to the bin at each revolution Of the
elevator. On the top of the bin is
d can fifty feet long which
distributes the coal at any
desired part Of the bin. Along the front
are eight doors which open directly above
the edge of the wharf. AT each Of these
doors is a shoot" throughwhich the coal
passes into a long travelling trough, which
can easily be moved to any one of the
doors. From this trough, the coal passes
into the bunkers Of the steamer.
BY this convenient method the steamer
is not compelled to be moved from her
moorings as the trough can be adjusted
TO any reQuired position
