years past had some local notoriety as
q producer of the precious metals, the
ledge being a true fissure carrying
about four feet of ore which shows as
say values of 5 to 6 per cent copper,
IS ounces silver and from 50 TO Sc in
gold to the ton, an effort having been
made several years ago to treat this
mineral by amalgamation, the treat
ment proving a sad failure. Recently.
however, it has been demonstrated that
high saving of values can be made
by concentration, and it is the inten-
tion Of Mr.. Lloyd and his associates
to put in a plant at or near the mine
Tor the purpose of handling the ore and
extracting its metallic values by this
process, and as Mr.. Lloyd is an expe-
rienced mining and mill man most sat
isfactory results are almost sure to fol-
low the venture.
Mr.. Ryan was one of the pioneers OF
the gold camp Of De Lamar and IS the
owner of the Gold Cup claim adjoining
the great De Lamar mine on the south.
The business which brought AIT.
Ryan to Salt Lake at the present time
was the consummation Of live stock
deal whereby be has sold from zoo TO-
500 head of stock cattle to Wyoming
dealer. He expects to leave for home
within q day or two.

AS TO THE MERCUR.
The Outrageous Attack Made On Its
Management.

The Outrageous Attack Made On It's
Management.
The article in the last issue of the
Engineering & Mining Journal of New
York, in which an attack was made on
the management of the NIercur Mining
company, caused no little surprise and
Indignation in mining circles in this
city and Mercur, and, although the ar
ucle is now nearly a week old, remarks
not very complimentary to the writer
thereof are to be heard on every hand.
AS a. matter of fact tits difficult to
see what could have inspired the cor
respondent of the Journal to make
rageous it was, and, to one reading be-
tween the lines, it would seem as if it
had been prompted by personal mo-
tiyeS, through some fancied or real in
jury, rather than from a desire to be
of benefit to the mining public, as the
statements made by the writer were
far from the facts. the sentiment of the
mining and business men of Salt Lake
being entirely at variance with that
expressed by the Journals Utah repre-
sentative e.
1t is well known that the affairs of
the Mercur company have been most
ably and conscientiously handled and,
While the company may have met with
its ups and downs, the same as have
invariably beset nearly every other
mining incorporation in this western
country. it is safe to say that the af-
fairs of the association We're never in
better share Than at the present time,
the physical condition of the mine be-
ing such as to justify the adding of in
creased capacity to its Manning mill
In fact, TIE showing in the several
workings of this great property is truly
phenomenal, and especially so in virgin
ground which is now being explored,
the disclosures in the Lulu incline tun-
mel being such that any stakeholder
knowing cf the condition of this portion
of the property would hesitate a long
time before parting with his shares,
even q. present figures.
In the Lulu, The Herald is authori-
tatively iaforned. a large amount of
very high-grade milling ore is being
uncovered. and it is stated that in the
cross-cut being run from this incline in
q mammoth body of mineral the daily
assays taken for a period of nine days
from the face OF the workings as deyel-
opment progressed, have revealed av-
erage values ranging from $50 to $50 so
to the ton in the yellow metal, the av-
erage for the nine days being S39 As,
which is something remarkable as
showing mammoth body of good
teaching ere carrying such extremely
high values.
Other portions of the mine, compare
lively, are showing up equally as well
as work prcgr esses in the operation
and exploration of this great gold Won
der, and the statement to the effect
that the Mercur would be a producer
and dividend-payer for a generation
10 come would be conservative, to say
the least.
In view of these facts and when the
standing Of the management of the
Mercur in Salt Lake business and COM
merciaI circles is considered, one cannot
but say that the article in the Journal
was ili-timed, unjust, and that it is
lacking in the elements necessary to
carry conviction with it-truth and
honesty.

FOUR FEET oF ORE.
Fine Body Of High-grade Mineral
Disclosed In the Columbia.


For several days past it has been ru-
mored on the streets in Zion that big
strike has been made in the workings
Of the Columbia mine on Lion hill in
Ophir district, and while important
discoveries in the different mining
camps of the state have succeeded each
other with rapid succession of late, the
reports from this Lion Hill property
have been so favorable that they have
lad a stimulating effect on the stock
Of the company, which has been in ear
nest demand ever since.
AS to the strike, the company yester-
day received a letter from Superinten-
dent James Kelly of the Columbia
which reads as follows:
81 have just made a shipment of high
grade ore from the mine to the Mack
intosh sampler and / expect to have
another consignment Of good stuff out
and on the road to the market within
the next week or ten days. In the Rosa
workings 1 have uncovered q 4-foot
body Of solid high-grade ore and the
showing is most encouraging. The Co
lumhus shaft is looking fine and l be-
lieve that within eight or ten feet more
we viii have plenty of good ore III this
portion of the mine"
The 4-foot body of high-grade ore
to by Mr.. Kelly, was uncovered in the
face of a .cross-cut running from the
east drift from the bottom of the 10
foot shaft, the direction of the vein
being towards the Wachusett group,
the deposit being located about 100 feet
vertically from the surface, thus show
ing that with depth the mineral zones
are increasing in size and value.
This find, The Hel aid is informed,
conforms with the prediction made
some time ago by William Mcqueen,
the well-known mining man, who eX-
pressed the opinion that in this ground
the company would open up a great
ore body corresponding with the chute
of high-grade mineral uncovered in the
old Lion mine, adjoining the Columbia
on the west, from which its owners
took out a small fortune in the precious
metals several years ago.
In the Columbia the company has al
ready blocked out from 5000 to 10000
tons of good milling mineral very SINH
lar in its general characteristics to the
immense ore zones from which the
Chloride Point, adjoining on the east,
is breaking down ore for its new mill.
The Columbus shaft is distance about
500 feet east from the Rosa workings.
and has now reached the 226-foot level,
at which depth the indications for the
dncovering OF a body of mineral within
the next few feet are very encouraging.
Superintendent Kelly always main
tanning that at a. depth of from 225 to
ESQ feet the Chloride Point vein would
be encountered, and it begins to look
as il his judgment was correct in the
premises

Manti, Oct S1.-Christian S. Soren-
son, who enlisted as one of Torrey's
rough riders came home today. Mr..
Sorenson- is looking somewhat pale and
worn. after his service in the army
Asked as to how the soldiers Jared
while in Florida, ne replied: Badly,
as to rations, climate and soldier life in
general" He claims that the commits
sary department of the army was Woe
fully mis1nanaged, and that they were
short of food on numerous occasions.
He did not attribute this to the fault
of the government, but to the attaches
of the commissary department, who
apparently did not understand their
business.
Speaking of Colonel W. J. Bryan, the
young man said that he was an ideal
officer, kind and sympathetic to his
men. He said that the colonel had
been known to give up his own cot to
a fever-stricken private, and to take
his blanket and make his bed in the
sand. Lieutenant Colonel Cannon came
in for a good share of the troopers
praise, as did the other commissioned
officers of Troop l. The young man
was raised in Manti but his parents
now live at Fountain Green, for which
place he will leave tomorrow morning.

mining share transaction to be made
in Salt Lake for many months was
consummated in this city yesterday
when Ezra Thompson wrote out his
check for 100000 for the purchase of

One may examine into the history of
various mining sections of the west,
but he is likely to get gray before he
finds a region where there are more
gilt-edged mining securities and high
priced stocks than in Utah, as this
state can boast of the possession of
a splendid list of dividend payers and
of stocks which it takes a small mint
of money to deal in.
