will be encountered.
The Sewer shows up richer than ever.
This winter two men have been pros

]. E. Ray has added another to his
bonded bonanzas, this time one of
Nell Ross Trapper's Pride claims,
which he takes for $1,000. Mr. Ray has
also purchased Hans Wilson's cabin
claim, upon which he expects to erect
boarding houses and whence he will
drive tunnels and drifts over towards
the Miller.
Work on the Annie Laurie's Senator
Stewart has stopped temporarily,
pending a muffied deal. When opera
tions ceased the tunnel was running in
with quartz vein in solid formation
James Long is making things hum on
the Breckenridge, and while Jim is
not the sort of fellow to make great
pretensions, the general opinion over
the camp is that he is pushing along a
good thing.
Mr.. Voigt says there is already an
abundance of water on the mountain
to work all the mines, and more is be-
ing developed. Up on the east fork of
Fish creek. high enough to supply the
Hottest wheels, he and A L Rowley
own a spring which they have been
opening UP until now a big flow of
water has been obtained. Not far from
this spring are several good claims be-
longing to the same two gentlemen.
This is a part of the field as yet but
scantily prospected and offers great in
ducements to the searchers after
precious metals.
There is probably not another mining
district in the west affording more al
Turing chances to prospectors than the
Gold Mountain country. 1t is true, how
ever, that men should go there well
heeled. because just now there are not
mines enough employing labor to keep
up many hands

A WONDERFUL PRODUCER.
Output of the Anaconda For the
Year 1895.

The holiday edition of the Inter
Mountain gave the output of the Ana
conda properties for the year 1896 at
13O,OOOOO9 pounds of fine copper. The
exact figures of the shipments from the
anaconda, says the Mountain of
Butte, Montana, are at hand, showing
that during the past year 125. $50. 500
pounds of copper were shipped to east
ern points The output for the preced-
ing year. 1895. was 80. re. 294 pounds of
copper; the increase last year being
25,575,399 pounds, or more than % ner
cent.
The production of silver by the Ana
conda during the past year amounted TO
5.4S5,S26 ounces. a slight decrease from
that of the preceding year. There was
also decrease in the gold bi-product
from 1929 ounces for 1895. to 17.411 for
1896. The gross value of the copper.
gold and silver shipped from the Ana
conda during the year 1886 aggregates
more than s17.0OO.OOO or almost one-half
of the total bullion production of the
state.

former wears, are on a larger scale
than during recent weeks. About 10000
head arrived today, compared with o.
594 last Thursday. The arrivals thus

time last week, 92.0S0 a year ago, and

was liberal, reaching about 81 900 head,
and the prices averaged a nickel lower,

At the Germania

The Frudenstien boys. who have been
sinking new shaft on the Germania.
struck an immensely rich pocket of ore
yesterday, which viii assay about 500
ounces in silver to the ton. The ex-
tent of the ore body has not yet been
ascertained, but it is believed to be a
large one
The Germania was one of the big
silver producers of early days, but has
been idle for years. That whole sec
ton of country is filed with rich kid
neys of silver ore, and every bunch the
miner strikes adds materially to his
bank account. In the Elba, an adjoining
claim, Messrs. Johnson and Dugan.

from rich pockets.

WILL START A NEW CAMP.
The Prosperity of Gold Mountain
District.

A short time ago The Herald re-
ceived a communication from Marys-
vale relative to a new town that was
being started in Gold Mountain dis
trict, which had been very apprOpri-
ately named Gold Mountain City"
The Richfield Advocate, in speaking
of the new camp, says:
Charles Weight, German prospector,
who has been among the miners of
Gold Mountain almost continuously
since the birth of that district, was IN
Richfield last week, enthusiastic over
townsite proposition he is nursing
not far from the Sewer and others Ok
Mt. Baldy'S bonanZaS. From him the
Advocate CLEANED these facts:
Some years ago Bob Bridges located
placer claim near the junction of
Mill creek and Sewer gulch, about two
and One-half miles the other side of
Morrison's ranch, 13 miles uD Clear
Creek canyon from Joseph City. and
about three miles this side the Sewer
mine. In time Bridges allowed his
right to the ground to expire. and not
long ago Voigt relocated it. taking the
original owner as half owner.
There are 40 acres in the tract. beau
tifully located on level ground and
this the two owners propose to divide
into lots to be purchased for building
admirable for a supply headquarters
to the many fiourishing mines in the
district, and have already christened
the waste Gold Mountain City To
date the progress made is the locating
and stalking off of the land. Some lots
have been given away and options
granted on others. Lars H OutZen of
this city has bargained for two lots.
Daniel p. Jensen of Elsinore has three
in sight and expects to establish
general merchandise house on the hill
Will Morrison of joseph wants to put
up a meat market on three lots picked
out. w. F. Snyder has been given two
lots for livery and transfer business.
and Charles Robinson has his eye on
two others. All the boys on the noun
tain have chosen ground on the site
and will be furnished timber by Voigt
for the building of cabins.
The main road to the Gold Mountain
mines runs through the Voigt- Bridges
claim On beyond the Sewer mine
terminus of this road Joseph f. Ray
expects to extend the thoroughfare
over past his bonded Miller property
to the Fish Creek region, and it is ex-
pected that this spring another road
will be built from the Sewer gulch
junction NJ Mill creek to the Annie
Laurie country. This would make of
Gold Mountain City the natural meet
ing place of travellers to and from the
three chief sections of the camp

AT THE ONTARIO.
The Windlass on the 800 Displaced
bv a Steam Hoist.


Park City, Feb. 1.-THE work of sink
ing the incline from the 1.5O0-level of
Ontario No. is going forward more
rapidly since the windlasS has been
displaced by an engine, which has been
in operation about three days. The
length of the incline is now $50 feet,
and about 40 feet more will bring it to
the 1,6O0-level. This will include the
stump. Being below the tunnel level it
is necessary to keep the pump working
constantly, although the volume of
water is not greater than would be
expected at that level. The incline
follows the vein and is showing up ore
bodies that are very gratifying to the
Ontario company. When the 1,600level
is reached, drifting will naturally fol-
low, and it may not be a great while
until No. shaft will be deepened by
100 feet

terday, when Ken Donnellan filled an
order for 500 shares of Silver King at
81 a share f. c. Woolley selling. The
transfer created considerable comment
in the pit, as it represents the largest
sum of money in one deal that has
been paid out for stocks on the ex-
charge since the sale of one or two

New York was almost as much OF a

on the other side of the Atlantic, but
although our stay there had been cir
