What Is Being Done in the Mines a
Silver City, PinOs Altos, M0gollon,
Carlisle and White Signal.
All the Mogollon mills are running t.
their full capacity as water is plenty
DR.. G. N. Wood has made new strik
of very rich ore on his Bear Creek mine
Loberg g. Childs are working seventy
two men on their several mines at Car
Isle.
Peter McDermott has sold the Laurt
mine at Carlisle to French syndicate lol
$4,000.
:, The Ivanhoe copper smelter started uI
at Silver City last Saturday and is run
ming successfully.
The Deep Down mill is running on Lit
tie Fannie ore. They started up with 20t
tons as a trial run.
Two hundred and fifty men are now al
work In the Carlisle camp, most of them
taking out rich ore for shipment.
The Van smelter received supply OF
coke by yesterdays train, and the smeltel
will be running in full blast to-day.
New strikes and rich developments are
the order of the day in all the mining
camps of Grant county and in the Mogol-
Ions.
Cartright, Markley and Moulton have
purchased the Texas mine at Central
This puts an end to litigation upon that
valuable property.
Lambrecht, Lannan, Mcclure and Pet
erson are doing we'll on their tellurun,
properties on Little Dry creek. They
have encountered $1,000 gold ore.
Charles Schwarry is working one OF his
mines at Carlisle and taking out very
rich ore. He has made three shipments
of ore which proved the value of the
mine.
The Little Fanny mine is producing
more ore than the Sheridan mill can
handle. The Deep Down mill will help
convert part of the product into bullion.
A large body of exceedingly high grade
ore has been struck il. the Copper Queen
mine at Caremont, and Superintendent
George R. Brown is highly elated in con-
sequence.
The Helen company's mill is kept run
ming steadily on Confidence ore, and
judging from the output of bullion the
company must be doing land office
/ business.
News from the tellurium camps on Lit
tie Dry creek are decidedly encouraging.
Some very rich ore is being shown in
camp, and number of new locations
have been made.
Water ia getting scarce at Pinos Altos
and as a consequence the Pacific and
Mammoth mines and mills have closed
down. The Bell and Stephens mill is
running on half time.
The Little Giant has been shipping ore
to the Van smelter on trial test. If the
working proves success, Pinos Altos
will have boom, as fully two-thirds of
the ore in camp is smelling ore.
Galloway & Alexander are pushing
work on their claim at White Signal, and
they are taking out some very rich ore.
Should the vein continue in richness for
short while they will both retire as
millionaires.
Silver City Enterprise: The mines of
Mogollon have made good record on
bullion shipments for the first four days
of this week. Up to last night, the week S
returns from Mogollon are twelve bars
Of bullion, over half a ton, large per-
centage of which is gold. Pretty good
for any camp.
Geo. DickersoE has shaft on his claim
at White Signal down fifteen feet and it
shows up handsomely. The ore is q
hematite similar to that found in Gold
Hill, and carries from 5000 to $500 per
ton in gold. Should the vein, which is
now forty inches wide, continue to hold
its own to depth of fifty feet, he will
have veritable bonanza.
Smith d Thomas, owners OF the Dead
wood, Mogollon camp, intend to start
work June l. They will commence cross
cutting from the creek level to cut the
vein. They have already encountered
ore ranging in value from $40 to $40 in
gold, per ton. They expect to cut the
vein in from ten to fifteen feet more. The
Deadwood will make record.
The Maud S. company, Mogolon dis
trict, are putting in vanners in their mill
and expect to have them in operation in
about week. Quantities of native silver
ore have been found in the mine on the
silver level west. The old standby still
keeps the lead. They are pumping 10000
gallons of water every twenty-four hours.
This is in itself bonanza.
On Jim Longs Summit mine, Carlisle
Loberg 4 Childs are sinking a shaft and
taking out good ore. They are also driv-
ing cross-cut tunnel which will be $50
feet in length. 1t has now attained a
length of 225 feet and it is expected it
will reach the ledge within forty days.
1t will intersect the ledge at depth of
about 200 feet. If the ore continues as
good grade at that depth as it shows in
the upper workings the mine will be a
bonanza, and all Indications point that
way.
