L.adv,l1e,s SHIPPING Mines.

'There are more big mines shipping
to-day in Leadville than there ever was
III its history" said a mine operator who
has been operating in these hills since
70. That sounded strange, but the
mining reporters informant said ne
would call off twenty bigger shippers
than Leadyille could match at any one
time Ill it's previous history. This high
flown statement set the mining report
er to thinking, and the first man he met
was Arthur Nichols, of the .Smith-Mof-
fat enterprises, who confessed that they
alone were working 500 men at their
mines, and shipping 5000 to 5000 tons
a month. When it iS, known that one
Of these properties. the Bon Air, is re-
ported to be earning $4,000 a month
the scope of business done by one con-
Germ IS only indicated. So extensive is
the mining done by this combination,
that not a day passes but that they
make a strike in some Of their mines
that a few years ago would have set
the hills on fire. The camp has settled
down to mining as any otner business.
and strikes are accepted as q matter Of
Observation-Disclosures.

Tho world,. Gold ou.pu..

American writer's and newspapers
still seem to find a fascinating occupa-
ton in computing the gold output of the
world, says the Australian Mining
Standard. And there is just as much
diversity in the details of the calcula-
ton, as there is unanimity in the re-
suit. Pride of place as leading gold pro-
.ducer is invariably given to the United
States. South Africa taking second place
and Australia coming next. Advanced
as the year is, data are not available to
make the compilation absolute and GER
tain. The most reliable figures we a
command do not accord with those
quoted by our American conternpora-
ries. In point OF ounces produced, put
ting aside money value, Australia takes
tho lead with a production Of 2,2OO, 600
ounces, South Africa ranks second with
2,O24,159 ounces, and America third
with 1,923,619 ounces. One point, how
ever, is Observation-Disclosures 1894 wit
messed a most remarkable increase in
the gold yield from every quarter Of
the globe, and an increase which, to all
appearances the present year will
scarcely sustain.

state Mining Association.

The proposition to organize a sta,e
mining association at Denver to be join
ed by the mining men OF the state meets
with much favor among the mining
men in the city. 1t has been suggested
that President Root of the local ex-
change issue the call. and that q mass
meeting of mine owners and operators
be held. out Of which an organization
shall be effected. A trial Of this kind
was made about nine years ago, but
the mining interests Of the state were
chen in their infancy, but now 1t has
grown to such proportions that the or
ganization could become a very power
full one.
1t is suggested that the result would
be the formation Of 4 national organize
ton In a few years, for the organization
of the Colorado association would be
followed by other states in the same
line and then all would join in a nation
al society, which would be the means Of
aiding the mining interests OF the Who'll,
country.

cripple Gro KS Nsw sampler.

One of the latest Of tle late many to
invest In Cripple Creek is the Pittsbursg-
Colorado Sampling Works and Assay
company, who have incorporated with
a capital stock Of 100000, with the fol-
lowing named gentlemen as officers: j.
N. Hill, president: Philip Schuch, Jr.,
manager; j. ID. McKelvey, vice pres;-
dent; w. B. McClelland, attorney, and
~. H. Gruber, secretary. says the Grip
pie Creek Times.
A visit to their plant neal the Cripple
Creek depot proves beyond q doubt that
they are not only ready for business,
but they are doing II. The approach to
the works is through the general office:
one of which is fitted up for the purpose
OF weighing bullion and high grade ore.
the other for private Office work, both
equipped very neatly. Passing on back
through the works the real part OF sam
plins and assaying is introduced. The
furnace room, where the tedious part
OF assaying is operated and where the
pulp Is reduced to the bright. pure, and
glowing gold. The next is the machine
department, followed by the crusher
and grinders. which, reduce the rock
suitably for assaying.
The whole is operated by the latest
and most improved machinery known
to man. 1t is said that an average Of
9S. per cent Of the real value is thus saw
ed. The capacity is thirty tons per day.
The specially of these works is that the
mine or lessee can have returns within
five hours Of the time he places the rock
in their hands. Also that high grade
ore is treated most successfully, and
that large lots are operated as accurate
ly as smaller portions.

Tho Cma- d,Alepes.

The Black Hills Times prints the fol-
lowing extracts from u private letter
written by q Occur d'Alene miner: 1.-The
Occur d'Alene is a peculiar country in
many respects. It is rough and almost
impossible and utterly devoid of attrac-
tons that would encourage the home
seeker and the home builder. The chief
end of man here is to make what he can
and get out to greener pastures. The
various towns of the Occur d'Alene
country do not compare with the towns
Of the Black Hills in point Of comfort
and metropolitan appearance. To speak
properly, everything is raw and new.
Since the opening up Of the Bunker Hill
and Sullivan and the Last Chance
mines, the people here are more con-
tented and looking forward to better
times. Both mines have had one pay
day each, so consequently quite a sum
of money was distrlbutedIS1S,000 by
B. HI. and s. and $4,000 by the Last
Chance. This amount will be more
than doubled next pay day. At Wal
lace, the Hunter mine is in operation
and the Frisco will start up with a large
force on September LIST. The miners
unions, as they existed in the Occur
d'Alene, are a thing Of the past. They
will never WELD the power they once
did. You will find all creeds and ma
%tionalities working side by side without
any trouble or difficulty. The wages
here are $3.50 and So, and on wet drifts
So and $3.50 for eight hour shifts. Tim
bermen are paid $40. There is a good
show here for practical miners, but not
much chance for laborers."

Mining Notes.

The silver snlelter, at Great Fails.
Montana, will start up in the next sixty
days. A contract has been completed
with tho Menlton company at Barker
to ship the accumulation Of lead ore
which has been piling up on the dump
for some time, and the siiicious ores or
Nelhart are again being shipped to the
Falls.
Eugene Desty has discovered an i'm
mense placer deposit several miles he
low Fort Mohaye. 1t is said that any
one can make from three to ten dollars
per day with a rocker. The gold IS
heavy and easily saved. From the head
waters Of the Colorado to the Gulf of
California gold is found in paying uuan
titles.
The Fortunatus Mining and Milling
company, which has been working
claims at Bald Mountain, near Sheri.
dan, Wyoming, has at last struck gold
in paying quantities. The general man
ager Of the mines, who has just return
ed to Sheridan, says: "All our stamn
mills are now running and the conglom-
crate is averaging from IS to $50 a ton
of pure gold. We have thirty stamns
work running day and night. / have
telegraphed an order for more stamns !.
The success Of this company will nrove
a great benefit to this part of the conn
try.

Placer Mining.

Hydraulic or placer mining presents
lewer risks and more certainties than
any other department. OF mining, other
things being equal. 1t is simply Il ques-
ton of moving gravel or soil from one
place to another. Given, therefore, in
addition to abundance of water to
move and wash the gravel, and ample
space to deposit it again, after it has
been washed, and the problem of OBJ
tainig u profit reduced to n minimum.
Also IN hydraulic mining there is the all
dltional advantage of it's being possible
TO ascertain approximately the value
and extent of the gravel bed before
working it, at a small cost, while VEN
or quartz mining must always be
more or less Of an experiment and
chance. Records show that over seven
ty-five per cent Of all the gold mined
within historic times has been derived
nom the working of gravel beds. The
Rocky Mountains have been through the
ages of the past gradually breaking
down from Alaska to Cape Horn, and
the metal gold which existed in the in
Vulnerable veins Of quartz which inter
laced this great mountain mass in all
directions, deposited by the gradual dis
'tnteesratton Of the rock in,,beds at the
lower levels, forming placers Of varying
richness and practically inexhaust-
IDLE. These gravel beds are ma
lures gold filed vaults invit-
Ing the enterprise, the energy and
Ingenuity Of man, and promising, not
irregular and doubtful returns, which
must more or less characterize the
quartz mining, but steady and cont,nu-
Il results, an industry as legitimate
pnd safe as agriculture or general trade.

The Boston Transcript has evoyvad
a scheme by which it believes gold can
be drawn from Europe, and here is the
way 1t would go about it:
The accumulationyof gold in the Eu.
ropean banks Is phenomenally large.
according to the treasury experts at
washington. On the first week of
April the Bank of England had $183..
681,273 in coin and bullion. and the
Bank Of France in the same week car.
ried $406, 347,884 in gold alone, The
Imperial Bank Of Germany carried
1921, 807, $40 in coin and bullion. the
Austro-Hungarian bank $50, 594, SOL in
gold and tthe Bank of Russia SS1O,427,-s
400 in gold. 1t is the opinion Of the
well-known banker, Mr.. Charles c..
Johnson Of Boston, that this excess OF
foreign capital will drift to the United
States for profitable Investment. Such
a gold current would solve all doubts
about our gold reserve, and would, in
Mr.. Jacl1son's opinion, have a striking
effect upon prices in the United States.
How important it is to business, then,
that no foolish fanfaronade about sill
yer should control the action of our
government in any way. and again pro-
duce European distrust as to its ability
or disposition to pay all demands upon
it in gold.
In plain words the paper in question
would simply borrow the gold by issu-
ing longtime securities at a reasonable
rate Of interest. This is precisely the
way Grover Cleveland proposes to pro.
tect the gold reserve, and if the print.
ing presses hold out he will, in time
draw all the gold from Europe to this
country, but by that time he will have
a chattel mortgage not only on every
man, woman and child in the United
States, but On Old Glory as we'll.

Coming Home.

A London correspondent of the New
York Evening Post is authority for the
statement that most of the bonds sold
abroad, by the syndicate are coming
back to the United States to be sold for
American gold for export. He esti-
mates that about sS,O0o.000 will be re-
turned during tho month Of September.
Here is what he says about the situa-
ton:
The most u%nfavorable point in the
situation, as regarded by hnanciers
here, is the enormous amount Of ac-
COMMUNICATION bills which it is believed
have been already drawn to effect ex-
change. These, it is feared, have al
ready been so large as to materially dis
count any future effect likely to be pro-
duced by the bills yet to be drawn in
connection with the usual harvest
crops. R~eassuring statements on this
aspect Of the question would have a
good effect here.
This statement from what is consid.
cred one Of tho best Informed authori-
ties and Confirmed by dealers in ex-
change-oItsidc Of the syndicate-is
anything but r~eassuring. There Is a
well-grounded belief in banking circles
that the syndicate cannot meet its obli-
cations with commercial bills and will,
ere long, be compelled to ship gold In
Stead-IIx.

Tho Richest Nation.

And now 1t is a French economist il
the person Of Professor Francois who
comes out in a magazine in Paris, and
informs tho world that the United
States is the richest nation on earth,
and possesses 25 per cent of the wealth
or civilized humanity. In his computa-
lions the professor takes into account
the resources Of no less than nineteen
nations. He delvcs into the question
with all the enthusiasm of a true scien-
list. He appears to reach his conclu-
s1ons in a perfectly fair and impartial
sort OF way, and being a Frenchman
born and bred, nc one can justly accuse
him OF undue Partially for the United
States. The order in. which the ma
tl0ns'are classed in the professors
summary makes the United States
nrst as aforesaid, England second,
france third, and Germany fourth.
Russia and Austria come next in the
order named, and the balance do not, in
combined wealth, equal the American
Republic. There is just one little point
In his very interesting economic COM
putation that Professor Francois fails
to fully elucidate. That one point is
now it happens that the United States,
being first in wealth, is the only one Of
the -four leaders to be obliged to borrow
money at ruinous rates in times of
peace, from her less wealthy neigh
Dors. 1t IS not doubted that there is
more wealth on this side Of the Allan
tic Ocean, and under the flag Of one,
government than there is under any,
other ensign on earth. But in full
view of this seemingly we'll fortified
fact, it still remains to be explained on
other than a free coinage basis how the.
wealthiest nation is the borrower, the
less wealthy, the home of the sonly in
terest" that has money to loan in i'm
mense quantities. When Professor
Francois thinks he has time he might
earn a dollar or two by discovering an
answer to this problem, provided, Of
course, his answer fayors the Inter
ests" spoken OF by Professor Lawrence
Laughlin, a. the only institution from
whom President Cleveland could Dor.
row gold.-EX.

Try, bringing back several thousand

ton Will be Nicaragua. He says that
all one has to do to secure a mining
claim is TO stake off the tract he wants
and .denounce" it, thnt is, make appli-
cation to the government. The cost OF
papers, ETC., is about 500, but the de
nouncer" holds the land as long as he
works 1t. Placer mining is the popular
method for the reason that the placers
are very rich and easily worked. All
the gold is on bed rock, which is from
three to six or eight feet deep, the
heavy rains washing every particle
through the top soil, and the natives
work in the old way Of stripping the
soil and cleaning the bed rock, starting
another hole when that is worked out.
No attempt has been made to prospect
the leads except on the Pacific coast,
and there only in a desultory way.
The climate is not such as would com
mend a permanent residence, but for q,
place in which to make money quickly
it is all right.
