The Railway Age makes the follow

1897 has shown larger railway earnings
and better business conditions than It's
immediate predecessors, the marked
improvement in the financial outlook

way undertakings and so it now appears
that although much construction work
is under way, the mileage OF track
actually laid is but little greater than
that for the preceding year. The
lowest point in twenty years in res
pect to railway building was rea ched
ia 1895, wheo only 1903 miles of track
were added, end 1897 has done little
better, the total nov reported b,ing

The Gladstone Mill.

The Gladstone Mining company, of
this city, has just received word from
Leesburg. Ida, that the new ten
stamp mill of the company had been
in successful operation since the 18th,
and that the plant was working nicely
and treating from 20 to % tons OF ore
daily.
of course no cleanup has been made
as yet, but indications go 10 show that
a good saving of gold values is being
made, and this question can be def
nitely settled within a few days, as the
company's assay office will soon be in
running order, when the pulp can be
assayed before going into the batteries
and a check test made on the tailings.
The ore brushes nicely, the ore IS free
milling, and with an immense amount
of good milling ore blocked out in the
mine and development work disclosing
more of the precious mineral, there is
every reason to believe that the prop
erty will soon be classed as a dividend
payer.
The results of the next two or three
weeks will be anxiously awaited by the
officers of the company. as by that time
it viii be determined as to the merits
of the new mill on Goldstone ores.
A large amount of prospecting and
development is now going on in the
vicinity of the mine, and the outlook
for that section of the country is very
promising
