be reimbursed for the loss of the powder,
claim which the railway company re-
fused to admit, owing to provision in the
shipping contract exempting it from liza

held that the powder company could not

DIAMOND AND VICINITY.
Increased Activity in This Old Sill
ver-Lead Camp.
From Eureka Democracy

(From Eureka Democrat)
| Work will be resumed on the White
! Cloud in a short time and the tunnel
continued in until the main ore body is
encountered. This is looked upon as
valuable property and will be carried to
| patent during the year, an official sur
vey having been made already.
Judge Green, operating the Buckeye
mine at Diamond, reports a strike OF
good shipping ore on the 200 level of
| that mine that averages from 90 to ~
ounces in silver and upwards of 40 per
cent lead and about Sc in gold. A ship
ment is being prepared for market and
the indications point to a steady output
from this property in the future.
Josh Graves is working the Showers
mine, belonging to the Walker broth
ers, and has a fine body of ore in the
! bottom of the 75-foot shaft that runs
about 40 ounces in silver and As to 80
per cent in lead. There is every pros
pect of the mine being in the list of
profitable shippers the present season.
The Black Jack is being developed by
Harrison Beck, who has a shaft now
down 40 feet and just recently cut d
2-foot vein of ore that goes As per cent
lead and 20 ounces silver. He expects
to carry the shaft down to the 100 level
when he will open the ground for stop
ing. We expect good reports in the
future from the Black Jack.
The incorporators of the Copper
Queen, principal among whom are ].
H. McGhan and H. K. Smith, propose
to put that property in the string of
dividend payers early this season.
The management are preparing to put
a. whim and other surface improve
ments upon the ground and continue
the main shaft, which is now 200 feet
deep, down 400 feet. A good grade of
shipping ore was encountered at ITO
feet, but this Will not be broken until
greater depth is obtained, when the
ore body is expected to bound larger
and richer.
The Morning Glory, owned by Henry
W. Lawrence of Salt Lake is being
vigorously worked under lease by the
Brooks brothers with satisfactory re-
suits. Regular shipments are being
made from this old producer and the
ore is more than holding it's own in eX-
tent of value. The force of men will be
largely increased in the near future
and the working shaft put down an
other hundred feet There is no doubt
the tonnage from the Morning Glory
will be doubled within the next sixty
days.

pushing work with fifty men on his
Provo canyon electrical power project.

ten miles up the canyon, and the plant
when completed will have capacity

power for the camps in Camp Floyd
and Tintic mining. districts.
! George Kislingbury of the DeLamar
/ and East Golden Gate mines at Mer-
cur. was in the city yesterday. Mr..
Kislingbury will leave for Spokane
this morning on a ten days vacation.
He says that the East Golden Gate
shaft is row down 200 feet in lime,
with favorable indications. Mr.. k1s-
lingbury has unlimited faith in Mer-
cur. and before returning to the
camp will probably enlist some Wash

Hon. Thomas G. Merrill and ]. H.
Conrad, of Butte, Montana, have

quite heavily interested in Utah pro-

The Four Aces mine, near Silver city,
is coming rapidly to the front OF late,
and it's stockholders are beginning to
believe that it will soon emulate the

ore and two in doing development
work. 1t is filling its ore bins with
good ore. Its gasoline hoist is work

has a worldwide reputation as
newspaper writer and lecturer, was
more than pleased with what he saw
there-he was surprised. He has Wis
tied the mines of Cripple Creek, but
SAYS they are not in it when compared
to the great producers Of Mercur,
which are worked like coal mines and
which are practically ineXhaustible In
fact, he says he never saw anything
that would compare with the unrivaled

Blue Mountain Bonanza.

Superintendent Ben Haywood. the
grand mogul of the Gold Queen mines
in the Blue mountains in San Juan
county, is spending a few days in the
city on business and pleasure COM
bined.
Mr. Haywood is very reticent regard
ing the bonanza proposition over which
he has charge, but he has dropped a
few words from which we might infer
that he is we'll pleased with its ap-
pearance and that he proposes to stay
with il until he has made his pile
The formation in the Blue mountains
is slate. granite and diorite, which is
cut by the porphyry bikes, the gold ex-
listing in the porphyry, generally IN
large bodies of low grade mineral, ana
occasionally in exceedingly rich peck
cts. where the values appear in the
form OF gold leaf.
In speaking of the low grade depos-
its. which generally carry from $40 to
SOS in gold, Mr. Haywood speaks of
them as being his regular alfalfa d.
eft - with which he is well satisfied, but
the rich rock he designates as high
grade barley which comes in quite
handy as a dessert.
The Gold Queen will put in a mill
this summer and when it is in opera
+ion If is expected that a steady stream
of gold will drop into the Golfers OF the
co1nDany.

terday and a force Of men will at once

ton of President Dumbeck and his

possible moment, and no doubt this will
be accomplished before the season is
half over.
A deal is now pending on the Sacra-
mento ground, north of the Beck, and
may be consummated at any time this
month. The Sacramento is believed to
be the extension of the Beck and Almo
ground, and has already shaft over
500 feet deep. From the bottom of this
shaft cross-cuts could be run which
would undoubtedly show up ore. The
surface groupings are equal to any in
the district, and the matter Of making
a paying mine out of the Sacramento
is entirely a question of doing the nee
essary development work. If the pres
ent deals falls through it is understood
other parties stand ready to take up
the ground The consideration is not
reported, but is a good round figure.
