ing ore. and they will continue to run. though
at a reduced capacity. The Durango smelters
have plenty Of ore. carrying some copper and
some gold. coming from Silyerton. Ophir, Rico
and Telluride. The Rio Grande Southern
Railroad is running only one train day.
This leaves Durango one morning and returns
the next day. Not large amount Of ore can
be brought to Durango in this way.
Though there are four or five large mines
which can ship ore at a profit with silver as
low as so cents an ounce, these properties are
not producing any ore for shipment. The
Amethyst at Creole. is working % men: the
yirginius. at Ouray. $50; the Molie Gibson. at
ASPEN. 50; the Smuggler. at Telluride. $50.
In spite OF the general paralysis OF business
there is money going into the gold camps.
Gilpin county Is quite active and the new dis
trict OF Yankee Hill is surely developing into
An established gold territory. Some good
mills are needed row. Ore taken from the
Ophir mine, which shows from four to Ave feet
OF milling orc at depth Of twenty feet. has a
value OF from four to eight ounces of gold to
the cord. Orc from the Wade. the Last Hopes,
the Little Mary. and the Little Lalla give en-
eouraging showings.
