THE sNowsToRM GROUP.
Incorporation of Another Property
Over On the West Dip.

Papers were prepared yesterday fol
the incorporation of the Snowstorn
group of 10 claims, on The west dip OF
Camp Floyd district. The property adj
joining the South Daisy on the south
and being on the same zone or ore belt
as the La Cigale, Daisy and Edna
MAJ
Considerable work has been done in
the development of this property, an
incline shaft being sunk through the
wash depth of 40 feet, striking the
vein scuarely, the ledge being from
four to five feet wide at this depth,
While at a depth CT $50 feet from the
surface, the bottom of the incline IS all
in ore carrying values of So to Sc in
gold to the ton. and as no crosscuts
have been run, the full extent and size
OF the deposit has not yet been deter
ni.eed.
The company will be capitalized at
500 600 shares, of par value of 81 each,
While tho officers of the company have
been named. as follows:
E.H. Airs, president; A H. Mayne,
vice president; A. NJ. Spooner, secre-
tary. and Frank KimbalI, treasurer.
It IS the intention of the new COM
rang 10 resume work at an early day
in the continued development of the
SnowstorU. and it is the prevailing
impression that this viii grow into a
producing and paying mine.

Hon. R. c. Chambers, superintend-
ent Of the Ontario, who has Just re-
turned from Park City, corroborates
the report contained in yesterday s
Herald to the effect that the Marsac
mill was soon to be started up again
on Ontario mill tailings. and in speak
ing on the subject yesterday with a
Herald reporter he said:
THE mill will be ready to start up
about the first Of May, when an expert
mental run will be made on the 1000
10 5000 tons of tailings. In our exper-
mental run made last fall we treated
from 500 TO 500 tons, and while we lost
no money, still the results were not
satisfactory. as there was such a small
margin of profit that there was really
nothing in it for the company, and We
were confronted with the possibility
that values might grow less or some
mistake might be made whereby we
would make a loss instead of a profit"
AS it is" continued Mr.. Chambers,
I am pushing this experimental run
largely upon my own responsibility, and
the company is likely TO hold me re-
sponsible for results, successful or
otherwise, and work may be discon-
tinued at any time if any loss is suS-
tanned and until this experimental run
is made and shown to be successful, no
special Improvements win be made with
the view of handling the tailings more
economically or of making a higher
saving. With silver at rs cents and up
wards, however, there are no doubts
but that these tailings could be han
died at a profit. However, as it is, if
the test is successful, [ will arrange to
continue operations on larger scale"
In speaking of the mine, Mr. Cham
bers stated that the usual force now
employed was still at work on shipping
ore, which carries more or less lead and
high in silver, while a small force is
constantly employed in renewing tim
bers in the mine where necessary. No.
8 shaft is being thoroughly repaired,
as soma OF it's timbers. are showing
signs of decay.
In speaking of the DAILY, Mr.. Cham
bers said that nothing was being done
with the mine, and when asked as to
what would be done with the DAILY
West, the reply was that "as far as
know nothing is going on there, and
do not know whether Mr.. Daily con-
doing anything or not"
In fact" Mr.. Chambers went on to
say, there is no profit in working any |
of these mines at the present time, !
and with existing silver quotations, and /
were it not for the purpose of keeping |
the Ontario alive and to protect it for /
the future, we would not be working it !
today"

Bombardment of Matanzas Described
In Spanish Rhyme.

Madrid, April s-Noon.-The follow.
ing is the substance of the official re-
port made by Captain General Blanco
on the bombardment of the forts OF
MatanZaS on Wednesday last:
Three american cruisers fired on the
batteries of Fort Morrille at Matanzas
without doing any damage We fired
81 shots, 10 which the Americans re-
piled with q multitude of quick firing
gun shots, which did not do any in
jury.
1.-The American squadron also fired
II cannon shots at the Abanilla bat
terry, only one mule being killed, TO
which the Spanish battery only replied
with four shots. The squadron was
beyond range.
The whole squadron of five ships
then threw several shells into the town
without doing any damage.
The French and Austrian consuls
have protested against the lombard
ment as it was comm enced without any
previous warning to foreign ships. The
troops manning the stations are full of
fight.
1T appears that our shots did some
damage 10 the American ships.
one funnel was certainly hit.

/ Twenty bars of bullion contain
ing about $4,000 ounces were sent out
! from the Eureka-Hill mill Tuesday
Pat Shea and L. T. Jacobs have Sc
cured the contract for sinking the
/ Mountain West shaft fifty feet and be
gun work last Monday. When the work
/ is completed the shaft will have a depth
of 1876 feet. The property lies below
the Humbug and is considered fine
prospect.
The Gemini Mining company COM
menced hosting ore last Wednesday.
The retimbering of a portion of the
shaft should have been completed last
week but owing to a caVe-in there was
a delay. For some time to come the
mine will be a steady shipper unless
some unforeseen accident occurs.
DR.. Hughes. the well known oculist
of Salt Lake, was out for several DAYS
this week. The doctor is interested in
the Minnie Argenta group, in the vi
cinity of the Red Rose, and has been
inspecting the work on the property
The shaft has been put down about 100
feet and sinking will be continued The
gentleman is highly pleased with Tin
Tic district.
Superintendent w. J. Lawrence of
the Star Cons. advises US chat the con-
nection between the new shaft and the
old workings was completed on the 300
foot level Wednesday night. The out
put of the mine viii now come through
the new shaft and the completion of
the connection means considerable in
crease in the force.
President John a. Hunt of the May
Day advises us that he let the contract
last Saturday for 100 feet in the tunnel
of that property to James NJ. O'Brien
Work was commenced under the con-
tract on Tuesday. In the meantime the
former workings have been thoroughly
retimbered by Joseph 1. Bonney under
direction of Mr.. Hunt. The May Day
is one of the best located properties in
Tintic, adjoining as itdOes, the cele-
brated Uncle Sam, and but little more
systematic development ought to make /
a mine of it.

portance as Work Progresses.
Superintendent Edwards of the Mer.
cur who came in a few days ago with
the remains of John Olsen, who was
killed a few days ago in the Wine from
the Resolute incline, viii return to the
camp this morning.
In speaking of this casualty, Mr.. Ed
wards stated that he felt very badly
concerning it, although the company
was not responsible, the coroner's jury
attributing the cause to carelessness on
the part of the deceased, and this YER
dict has been borne out by facts, as it
could, not be called an accident, as
there was a ladder way all the way
down the winze. besides a good wind
lass and rope the superstition being
that the victim, in his hurry to ascend,
failed 10 place his foot in the loop Of
the rope and then losing his head after
nearly reaching the top, which would
necessarily release the company from
responsibility, Notwithstanding the
fact that it would not be liable any
way, as the work was being done by
contract.
On account of the deplorable event
only a day or so was lost in pushing
on the work in hand-that of exploring
the third vein as disclosed in this
Wine, and now good progress is again
being made IN sinking TO uncover the
footwall of the deposit, and Mr.. Ed
wards says that at the time of the cas-
ualty the workings had been sunk for
II feet in a splendid body OF milling
ore, with first-class mineral in the bot
tom at the time of the accident.
This discovery, in Mr.. Edwards opin-
ion. is a most important one, and adds
much to the life and value of the mine.
as it is believed that there is strong
he
cry in the Resolute and the opening on
the same vein in the Ruby workings.
NJ Edwards recently made an ex-
animation of the Sacramento, and he
characterizes this mine as a magnif-
cent piece of property.

BATTLEsHIPs IN ACTION.
Some Reflections Provoked By the
Bombardment of Matanzas.

On Board the Flagship New York, Off
Havana, April 2S, 10 a. M, via Key
West, April 29.-F'rom the lay point of
view the bombardment appeared to
demonstrate several things. 1t proved
that the officers, from Rear Admiral
Sampson down, are perfectly cool in the
face of danger and action-< that they
have superior control over the men at
the most exciting and trying moments,
and that the latter are as steady and
coura geous when the guns roar and the
shells whistle as when they muster to
morning and evening quarters in time
of peace. In the second place, the bonn
harding gave very thoughtful, though
frightful illustration of a warships
death-dealing powers. Had a single
ship been in the place where the shells
fell. it seems as if she would have been
blown to bits before she could have re-
turned the fire. When a ten-thousand
ton ship, usually as steady as rock,
shakes and trembles like a frightened
child. when firmly fitted bolts start
from their sockets, and window panes
and woodwork are shattered; when the
roars go up from port and starboard,
and you feel your feet leaving the deck
and your glasses jumping around your
forehead. while a binding, blackening
smoke hides everything from sight, then
il is you first realize the terrible power
of a modern warship's batteries.
The characteristic incident of the
bombardment of Matanzas, and one
that will go down in history as an in
stance of Yankee pluck, occurred in the
sick bay on the flagship. Eleven sail
ors were laying there. listening to the
shots, all eager to go on deck. Sudden
ly, as If moved by common impulse,
four of them sprang from their cots.
One had malaria, two mad grippe, and
another a high fever, but their ailments
were forgotten, as they rushed out to
their gun divisions, and took their usual
stations.
Despite their entreaties to be allowed
TO stay, they were ordered back to the
sick bay. 1t is hardly necessary to say
that these four splendid specimens of
the man behind the gum were not re-
ported for breach of discipline.
