During the remninder of the after.

During the remainder Of the after
noon, sebastiano appeared to be In q
brown study, planking n secluded cor
ner Of the deck with Cura Juan. At
dinner he started q discussion con-
cernine the change OF route Ivy jok-
ing the cura upon the unexpected
length Of his voyage, and hoping that
II would not inconvenience the other
passengers; adding that as far as he
personally was concerned the acci-
dent had been n fortunate one, inas-
much rs IL would enable him to reach
his destination at least two weeks
sooner than he expected. I noticed
that he was questioning Diaz during
the meal, so was not surprised at their
coming on deck together, or when
they approached 1Ialstead and myself
as we were enjoying our after-dinner
cigars on the bridge. Diaz merely
touched his cap and retired to port,
but the padre, remaining upon the
ladder until he should receive per-
mission TO invade the official precincts,
said that he'd like TO have a little chat
about the voyage.
Halstead sent one OF the quarter
masters below for another stool, and
courteously offered him cigar. Wher
we were settled comfortably, the
padre said:

A sample of the Gre assayed by Mr..
Hall at the lMcCabe mine, shows a
value CT $40 ounces silver per ton and
the ore is good for 40 per cent lead. It
is on a claim worked many years ago
but this particular vein was overlook

1t is that of which the new capitol at

that it can be sawn into blocks, yet

AnsWer-We hava received a num-
Der OF inquiries regarding tungsten
recently. "A full account of its uses,
occurrences OF its ores. etc., may be
found in Vols. III and VII CT the
Mineral Industry Briefly. we will
say that tungsten is used chiefly to
make serro-tungsten for the manu-
facture of tungsten steel. One of the
salts, calcium tungstete, from its fuo-
rescence, is used in Roentgen ray ap-
paratus. The manufacturers of ferro-
tungsten in the United States are the
Chrome Steel company of Brooklyn, N.
T., Stein & Boerieke CT Philadelphia.
and Ash & Deninger of Phoenixville,
Pa The production of ore in this
country last year was 1873 long tons.
There is also a market abroad, but
any considerable increase in the
amount CT ore offered would undoubt-
eddy lower prices decidedly. The value
of tungsten ore is determined by the
tungstic acid and the freedom from
sulphur and phosphorus, so varies
widely, while the price fluctuates &C.
cOrding to demand The ore is found
in Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado,
South Dakota, Nevada and Conneeti-
cut.
