awaited by them with no small de-
gree of interest. One of the contracts
with the Union Pacific was with the
mineral water company and provided
for the delivery of large quantities of
the product of the plant to the rail-
road, and Just what effect the re-
ownership proceedings viii have upon
that contract and the future of the
company remains to be seen. Should
the outcome be favorable to the rapid
ly growing industry then, without
doubt, the plant will be rebuilt and
probably on a much enlarged scale.
Warren S. White. the special adj
juster for the London & Lancashire
Insurance company, which was the
loser on the works, has returned from
the north, where he went for the pur-
pose of inspecting the ruined plant
and fixing the value of the burned
property There is no question but
that the loss will be total, for the
company lost more than enough stock
to secure for 1t the full amount of the
insurance money 1t is anticipated
that the settlement will be made
within the next few days. Mr.. White
left for the west last night and will
make report to the general western
manager of the London & Lancashire
upon his arrival in the city of San
Francisco. He took with him state
ments of the loss sustained by the
company and upon these the ADJUST
ment will be effected.

SECURING CALIFORNIA MINES.
Colonel Shnughnessey and Associ-
ates Operating at Angels.

Colonel Shaughnessey and Associ-
ates Operating at Angels.
Colonel Shaughnessey is back from
California, where, al Angels Camp,
Calaveras county, he and several other
Salt Lakers, including Colonel Wood
row and w. S. Mccormick, are oper-
ating gold properties with good sue
cess. He reports that the development
is very encouraging, and it is very evil
dent that they have mine or two
there. Speaking of the operations of
the colonel and his associates, with
out mentioning names, a special in the
Engineering and Mining Journal makes
the following statements, the report
being dated Angels Camp:
The BaumhOgger mine, near Angels
Camp, has been sold to Salt Lake par
ties for $4,000, and they have started
operations. a large hoist is to be put
on at once. This mine is low grade

The McCreight mine, two miles
southeast of Angels Camp and ad-
joining the Chaparral Hill mineS on
the east, has shaft 155 feet deep, and
is running full time. The vein is about
16 feet wide between the walls, and
is producing good milling ore. This
mine is bonded for $4,000 to Salt Lake
capitalists. The extension to the mine
is also bonded to the same parties for
$500.

Although the official announcement
has not been made it may be set down
as absolutely correct that the contract
for the machinery of the mill to be
erected by the owners of the great
Sunshine, in the Camp Floyd district,
Will be awarded 10 the Edward P.
Allis Co, of Milwaukee, represented in
this territory by J. 4. Yeatman, while
the buildings will be erected by s. u.
Watson, who viii also supply the ma
teTialS necessary in the construction.
Teltf-ra phic orders for the manufac-
ture and shipment Of the machinery,
which is TO b Of the latest pattern
and finish, were sent off yesterday af-
ternoon and it is anticipated that by
the date of the completion of the build
ings, work upon which is to commence
at once, the delivery of the vital parts
OF the plant viii be made and there
will be no delays. Contracts having al
res dy been signed up with Colonel
p Wall and his associates for the de
livery of a sufficient flow of water at
the mill by the date of the completion
of the latter, active operations may be
commenced just as soon as the last
piece of machinery is set. 1T is under
stood that the plant is to cost in the
i [
Gated directly above the mouth of the
working incline now being put down
and the cars Of ore wiz be delivered
right to the ore bins without double
handling. This wild remove a great
expense, which must be met by the
other companies of the district that
are now operating.
For several months past the owners
of the Sunshine have had under ad-
ViSemenG the matter of a mill for the
properties and some weeks ago the
plans and specifications were adopted
and submitted TO the various machin-
cry houses of the country The COM
petition for the contract has been ex-
tremely brisk and as a. result the plant
will cost considerably less than many
other similar plants have been put in
for. 1t is to have tankage and roll
capacity for the treatment of one hun
dred tons of ore daily and the power
and room provided will take care Of
zoe tons every twenty-four hours when
the owners decide to increase the ca
pacity by the placing Of additional
rolls and tanks. This is to be one Of
the most complete cyanide plants in
the world and everything about it will
be of the latest design and finish The
owners of the Sunshine are numbered
among this territory'S most progress
slve ciuZens and it is their intention
10 nave nothing but the best in the
market. They have the ore for treat
nIent and it is of extremely high grade.
Recent developments in the property
have shown UP immense quantities of
first class ore and in one incline alone
there Is g. solid breast OF ore seventy
seven feet in thickness. Work on the
me line is progressing favorably and
the connection with the old workings
is TO be made within the next few
days. c. H. Jacobs went down to the

UNDERWOOD HAS BEEN SUED.
officials Have Some Difficulty in
Serving the Papers.

Having become extremely tired of
the methods of the hex Mine and
Smelter company people, where the
properties of that name are concerned,
Messrs Mount, Holbrook and Camp
bell have invoked the aid of the law
in the collection of the So. 900 personal
note given by President Underwood of
the company as part payment on the
purchase price of the hex. They have
commenced suit against the gentle
man and with no little difficulty the
deputy marshals managed to make
personal service upon Underwood at
an early hour yesterday morning and
only after keeping close watch on his
room at the Knutsford during the
whole of Wednesday night. The gen
tieman was inside but refused to
either unlock the door or receive per-
sonal service of the complaint and
summons. As he was going east on
the morning train, it became neces-
Sary, however, for Underwood to
emerge from his room at an early
hour and then he was given service
by the waiting officers. It was known
only to a very few that Mr.. Under
wood had returned from Montana on
Wednesday or that he was in the
city, for the gentleman came in very
quietly and refused to register at the
Knutsford, where he made his head
quarters. He had nothing to offer in
the way of news when seen yesterday
morning as he was about to take the
train for the east. The situation here
remained unchanged, he said.
Now that they have secured service
on Underwood, the owners of the hex
are of the opinion that they can at
least save the $1,000 represented by the
note, which is a personal obligation
and has remained unpaid for over two
months, although made at sight. Mr..
Mount will go down to Richfield this
morning and from there go overland
to the hex on Monday. He stated last
evening that it is the intention of the
owners to open up the properties at
once and complete some of the devel-
opment work thereon.

GREAT GOLD PRODUCER.
What Captain De Lamar's Southern
Mines Are Doing.

The production of gold bullion at
the De Lamar mill in the Ferguson
district, is now pressing the $780, 900
mark very closely every month and
the bullion wagon makes regular trips
bet een the camp and Milford with its
precious freight and guarded by four
armed men --latest adViceS received
from De Lamar. through an authori-
tative source, are to the effect that the
mill is operating with extreme smooth
ness and the value of the ores, which
have recently made some healthy
jumps. are being saved to a very high
per cent. An increase has been made
in the number of tons treated by the
plant daily and this accounts for the
heavy bullion shipments. which are
made direct to New York
If present calculations are not amiss
the new water system for the mill
and town will be in active operation
by the middle of the month of August
and then the little systems which are
now in use will be abandoned, among
them that which is conveying the flow
from the Nesbitt spring to the mill.
Upon the completion of the new sys-
tenn the water supply will be received
from the Meadow Valley wash springs.
which are being piped over the divide
A heavy pumping station win be To-
Gated at the head of the pipe line and
the water raised to the summit of the
divide and then allowed to run by
gravity TO the town of De Lamar
Work is now being pushed with all
the speed possible and materials are
being delivered daily at the scene of
operations.
In the De Lamar properties recent
developments have shown up some
splendid ore bodies and these are be-
ing drawn upon for the mill supply.
The mines never looked better and
both they and the mill are receiving
splendid attention at the hands of
Messrs. Cohen and Nichols. The lower
development tunnel, which is 10 be
! 300 feeC in length, has now reached a
depth OF 300 feet and operations are
being pushed with all the speed pos
sible. When completed this tun-
mel, win serve as the outlet
for all of the ore taken
from the mines and all of the hoists

SETTLED THE STEWART Loss.
No Full Payment of the Insurance
to Be Made.

No Fnll Payment of the Insurance
to Be Made.
Out of $4,000 insurance the lessees
and owners of the Stewart mill at
Bingham, recently burned to the
ground, will receive a total of $S,1O727,
payment to be made by the losing
companies within the next few days
This was the result Of negotiations
which have been on for some days be-
tween the owners and interested par
ties and Adjuster White The inven-
tory of the burned property showed
that the building had sustained
loss of 3,319.50, the machinery IS, 662.77
and the boilers $777.77, making a total
of $12, 760.04 on a plant which is said
to have cost over $50 000.
Although several meetings have
been held between the owners of the
Stewart and the lessees, no agreement
has as yet been reached as to the fu-
ture operation of the properties and it
is hardly likely that any will be ar
rived at for some days at least. The
general opinion is that the lessees
will be given an extension on the bond
and will rebuild the destroyed mill

PIacers Not satisfactorx

j. A. kunkel, who, in company with
several other Utah placer miners
among them Tom Lewis and Ed. Nc
Lellan, has been working on the Green
River, Wy, placers up on Beaver and
Horse creeks, has returned and re-
ports that the diggings are not what
they were cracked up to be and the
men are leaving there as rapidly as
they can. None of them have met
with success. although they have tried
every process known for thprsavine of
gold. There is some gold there but
how to save it is the question, for il
is even finer than that on the Snake
river. Down on bed rock there is
about foot of quicksand that is alb.
solutely barren and this also preventl
the working of the placers.

viii work toward it. The incIines are
TO be equipped with electric lifts and
within comparatively short time
the entire work of the mines is to be
done with the aid of electricity. Cap
tain DeLamar will give the mining
world a practical illustration of what
electricity viii do in mining when he
gets his entire system completed. The
machinery for the new plant is now
on the road, some of it between Mil
ford and DeLamar.
Strike in the April Fool.
Although the interested parties are
endeavoring to keep the mater quiet,
1t has been learned that a great body
of very high grade gold ore has just
been struck in the April Fool, which
is located in the neighborhood of the
DeLamar properties. Some of the ore
is being taken out and sacked, either
in preparation for a shipment or
another mill run at the Bullionville
plant, which is again operating on
tailings and also ores from the Ad-
vance mine. If all of the reports are
true, the April Fool is a splendid
bonanza

WHAT STOCKS ARE DOING.
James a. Pollock Gives a Resume of
the Weeks Business.

James a. Pollock will say, in his
weekly mining share letter, under date
of June Z:
The mining share market this week
was dull and steady. There was an
obvious sagging tendency and a gen
eral Discrimination to trade. Certainly
something has taken considerable
timber out of the market, but it can
| not be wholly attributed to the warm
weather. 1 look for a general reaction
during the coming week.
Alliance seems to be resting upon
the results Of the developments now
| taking place in the property. If the
shaft that is now being sunk cuts the
! extension of the Silver King vein the
| shares will go to SO. Anchor was
rather freely offered and shows a de-
cline of % cents in the bidding, being
| $500 bid and 1925 asked. The mine
continues to make heavy shipments.
Bullion-Beck has advanced to SS.75
bid and no offerings under SO, with
the demand excellent. The property is
said to be looking better at present
than ever before in its history
Centennial Eureka advanced to S4S
bid and $50 asked. The Centennial is
now regarded as the greatest property
in Utah and l have been advising the
purchase of the stock from $22.50 up.

stock is climbing up. II is difficult to
decide whether it is due to public es-
timation or private manipulation.
DAILY is off a bit, 1928 bid and 81
asked. The shares ought to range
higher. To my mind the shares are
the best purchase on the list, at the
price. Daly-West was heavy and the
transfers limited. The mine is being
ably managed and making a splendid
showing. developing into a property
that will make producer only equal
led by the capacity of the mill built
to handle the product. The manage
ment have plans arranged for the
erection of a complete milling plant,
and l have reliable information that
it will be built during the present
summer. The mine is shipping about
twenty-five tons of smelling ore a. day
and of the 1000 tons shipped last
month the ore averaged 81 ounces sill

filed with the probate clerk yesterday.
The incorporates are: Edgar S. De
Golyer, president; Edwin H. Hackett,
vice-president; Adolph T. Vollmer,
treasurer; John Henry Woodman; and
James NJ. Denny, secretary.
The capital stock is S2,500,000. which

value of s. each, and is held in blocks
of $4,000 and $500. Mr.. De Golyer hold
ing $4,000 and the balance of the in
corporators 500 each.
The property of the company is To-
Gated in Calaveras county, Cal, and
comprises the Gottschalk quartz mine
and a large mill site adjoining.
There are several very fine specimens
of the quartz on exhibition in this city,
especially noticeable being those whoch
are in the window of Joslin & Park.
The ore is said to run very high in
gold and the prospects are very good.
The company will at once begin the
work of developing the property,
among the first acts contemplated be-
ing the erection of a mill.

Operations out at the Mammoth are
not quite so lively as usual, there
having been a decrease in the working
