the ore is so different in the two mines.
| 1t is now becoming apparent that While
the formation is similar, there are more
differences than at first suspected. AS
the workings of the Mercur have ap-
preached the Golden Gate ground
values have disappeared, and then
there seems to be a break between the
ore deposits. Here is problem for the
mining philosopher to solve, and it is
only one of the many that Mercur has
furnished.
The Lulu workings continue to show
up well, and although nothing but de-
velOpment work is being done, nearly
60 tons per day are being taken out
and this amount could be increased to
more than double if necessary.
Developments in the Matte has been
of more importance to the Sacramento
lately than to the Mercur mine, al
though the Mercur is getting its re-
ward at the same time. A drift has
been run from the 300-foot level along
an ore chute towards the Sacramento
ground. which is gradually increasing
towards the boundary line, until now
a body of ore about 20 feet thick, and
carrying good values, has been devel-
oped This vein is believed to con-
tinue on through the Sacramento
ground, a distance of about 800 feet,
reappearing in what is called the mid
die vein of the Sacramento. If this
theory is correct all the ground on
which stands the mill, boarding house,
tailings dump, ETC., is underlaid by
large and rich vein of ore at vertical
depth of about 300 feet at the lowest
point. So strong is this opinion that
the Sacramento people propose to run
drift on the ore, from the workings
above the mill to the lower end of their
ground, to determine the matter.
A contract will be let today to lay
water pipes to the hillside, so that the
steam hoist can be operated, the incline
having reached a depth where it be-
comes necessary to use steam.
1t is expected that the power will be
turned on at the Chloride Point today
to test the machinery, and if every
thing is all right the trial run will be
made.
The Geyser- Marion is again running
up to its full speed, and treating a good
quality of ore.

One Opinion Affirms and One Re-
verses the Trial Courts.
CAUSE OF ACTION AROSE
WHERE DEFAULT ON A PROMIS-
sorry NOTE WAS MADE.
Sheep Case On Trial Before Judge
Cherry-Mrs. Sarah Peters Award
ed Decree of Divorces. W.
Meyer Answers-District Court
Orders and Miscellaneous Notes.

Two opinions were yesterday handed
down by the supreme court. one affirm
ing and one reversing the judgments of
the lower court.
In the case of Morrison. Merrill &
Co., appellants, VS.. H. w. Willard ct
al, the opinion, which was written by
Justice Miner and concurred in by
Chief Justice Zane and Justice Bartch,
affirms the lower court. The action
was commenced to foreclose a mechan-
les lien upon property owned by de-
PENDANT B. J. Clayton, arising upon a
contract to furnish material to defend
ants Willard and Stewart as sub-con-
tractors on a contract by them to build
a house for defendant Clayton, and
to secure a judgment against Willard
and Clayton. The defendant Clayton
filed a demurrer to the complaint on
the ground that it did not state facts
sufficient to constitute a cause of ac-
ton. The trial court sustained the de-
murrer as to Clayton. Plaintiff de-
clined to amend and the complaint was
dismissed as to Clayton, from which
ruling the plaintiff appealed. The
question in the case was the sufficiency
of the notice of the lien.
The supreme court found the notice
of the lien was defective, and that the
trial court properly sustained the de-
murrer.

SCRAMBLE FOR APPOINTMENTS
Twenty-one Thousand Applications
For Five Hundred Places.

Washington. June 16.-The organiza-
ton of the volunteer army made neces-
sary the appointment from civil life of
a. little less than 500 staff officers and
second lieutenants. K The enormous
amount of work Aentailed upon the
president and the war department, par
ticularly the adjutant general and his
force, by these appointments can be
imagined when it is understood that for
the 500 appointments there were more
than 21000 applications. Every one of
the applications had to be briefed ar
ranged and filed and before the APP
pointments were made many of the
applications had to be handled several
times Each one had to be answered
and many were the subject of consider
able correspondence. The majority of
the applicants had influential support
and the president, the, secretary of war
and Adjutant General Corbin were
obliged to discuss the appointments
personally with the friends of the ap-
plicants. No regret is expressed in
official circles that the task is now ap-
preaching completion.

IN FROM sTATELINE.
Pioneers OF the Camp Exceedingly
Hopeful Regarding the Future.

John c. Lynch of Deseret Springs,
one of the pioneers of the promising
camp of Stateline, accompanied by his
son Tom, who is the asSayer and metal
lurgist of the district, arrived in the
city Wednesday night and the two are
registered at the Cullen.
Mr.. Lynch is one of the owners of
the Ophir mine, one of the first discov-
cries TO be made in Stateline, and he
states that this property is in a most
promising condition, as IN the large
bodies of ore exposed in its workings
there is a pay chute of IS inches which
carries gold and silver values to the eX-
tent of $27S to the ton, of which IS is
in gold, and this class of mineral is be-
ing broken down for shipment
AS mentioned in Thursdays issue of
The Herald, experiments have been
made on Ophir low grade ore at the
Yuba mill at Phoebe, and Tom Lynch
who was present while the tests We're
made, states that by concentration on
Willy tables a saving of 80 per cent
of the values was made, the concen-
trateS going 433 ounces silver and SIS in
gold to the ton, while the tailings Were
treated by the cyanide process, en-
bracing the aritation system. the re-
covery being so per cent, making a total
recovery of so per cent of the assay
value of the crude ore, which, in any
camp, is all that could be desired, and
as there is any amount of good milling
low grade ore in the Ophir workings
and on the dump, il is more than likely
that a mill embracing these two proc
esseS of reduction will soon be erected
for the treatment of mineral from this
mine.
The experiment on Creole taiIings
was also most satisfactory, as when
treated by the cyanide process by agi-
tation a recovery of So per cent of the
assay value was obtained, and as an
extraction of Co.'S per cent of the value
of the ore is made with the steam
stamp mill ct the mine, nearly the en-
tire metallic crude contents Of the min
eral can be saved by the addition of a
Witty table and a cyanide plant, and
the elder Lynch is of the opinion that
within the next u months several re-
duction works will be in operation in
the camp.
While the present season in Stateline
has not been characterized by any
startling discoveries, Mr.. Tom Lynch
states that at Pixies diggings, two
miles east of. the camp of Nelson in
Eagle Valley district, adjoining State
line, important finds have been report
ed of late, mention Of which has pre-
viously been made in these columns,
one of the lucky ones, according to Mr..
Lynch, being Jesse Leanister, who has
uncovered. ledge that horns freely, /
some of the rock going as high as $3.50
in the yellow metal to th> ton.
After attending TO mining business in
this city, which will require q few days, |
MIR. Lynch and his son Fom. and also
his younger son John, who has just /
at All I5allows college. will |
leave for fishing trip up into the I
Wood river country, in Idaho.

The Pioneer Company.

c. NJ. Howard, the well-known met
allurgist and millman, who was asso-
ciated with the early history of the
Mercur mine and mill, is in the city
from Coos county, Oregon, where for
the past two years he has been man
aging the mine and mill owned by the
Pioneer Mining company, of which he
is heavy stakeholder.
Mr.. Howard states that the mill has
been in successful operation for two
years on ore ranging in value from
$3.50 to $40 in its gold contents The
PROCESS employed is the cyanide sys-
tenn, SO We'll adapted 10 oxidized gold
ores, the plant having a capacity of
handling 80 tons daily, and so success
full is the enterprise that the company
is paying good dividends quarterly
In the Pioneer, immense bodies of
good milling ore are exposed, and it is
believed that the mine will prove to be
a paying proposition for many years to
come.
Mr. Howard will remain in Zion for
a few days, during which time he will
renew acquaintance with Old-time
friends, after which he will return to
the mine. as this altitude at this time
of the year is too hot for him.

George W. Movers Answer.

George w. Meyer yesterday filed his
answer in the suit brought against him
by Peter Parkinson to recover the pos
session of a certain deed.
The answer says that Parkinson, to
secure the payment of a promissory
note executed the deed in question, and
that the note was subsequently paid,
but that Parkinson issued an order to
the defendant to deliver the deed to
George H. Stephens, who claims that
Parkinson borrowed money from him
and agreed to give him the deed as Sc
curity. Parkinson and Stephens can't
agree as to which of them own the
deed, and Mr. Meyer says as soon as
they decide to which of them it be-
longs he is ready to deliver it, and he
asks that they be required to litigate
their claims.
