Lease of the London Group.

Jonathan McAssey, j. f. Cleary, A..
d. Mcleod and w. j. Smith have taken
a lease of the London mine, one of the
leading ore producers of this camp. The
lease promises to be a winner upon all
evidence, for it is known that the mine
contains immense bodies of ore which
have never been touched or ever sam
pied since the railroad reached Neihart.
Indeed it is doubtful if the owners
themselves know what is in the mine, as
the long prospect tunnel, run by Peter
Fehrenbach and which exposes the ore
was driven without the care of expert
assay, and when people allude to the
London as containing nothing but low
grade ore, they cannot speak from
knowledge.
The chule of sulphide ore in this
mine is about 800 feet long and in some
places at least nine feet in width. Much
of it appears to be of low silver value,
but that there are rich streaks of ore in
the mine is known without doubt. Up
on their extent and value will depend
the success of the present enterprise, and
it may be assured the present operators
will thoroughly exploit the mine. The
main tunnel, which has not been worked
for a period of nine years is 900 feet in
length. Its timbers have decayed and
the roof has caved so that it will REQUIRE
almost complete repairing before work
can commence in earnest. But we are
glad to note the steps taken by the pres
ent syndicate, and wish them every sue
cess.
The London group, consisting of the
London, May and Fraction lodes is the
property of the London Mining compa-
ny, of which Lewis Rotwitt of Helena,
Louis Hoffman of White Sulphur
Springs and Jonathan McAssey of Mel
hart are principal stockholders.
