THE HIGHLAND BOY.
Lewisohn Brothers Said to Be Back
ing the Enterprise

a c. Burrage of Boston, whose name
recently has figured so prominently in
the eastern reports of copper mining
combinations and syndicates, says the
Butte Miner, was in Butte this
week, and yesterday went over
TO Anaconda on business. The
general report in copper circles is that
Mr.. Burrage is to succeed Lewisohn
Bros. as the selling agent for some
of the largest copper producing mines
in the country. There has been con-
siderable wonder expressed among
mining men that Lewisohns should give
up their agency Tor these big concerns.
\ prominent mining man of Butte, who
generally keeps tab on all matters go
ing on in mining circles, gives it. as his
opinion that the LeWiSOhnS have in
vested so heavily in a big Utah Drop
erty that they find they have not the
time TO handle anything else. This
man says that the Lewisohns are be-
hind the Highland Boy mine in Bing-
ham canyon, Utah. Thomas Weir,
formerly manager of the Granite Noun
tain mine, in Montana, is manag of
the Highland Boy. The property has
required an immense amount of money
10 swing. and Samuel Newhouse, the
famous Denver capitalist, railroad and
mining operator, got a lot of English
capital invested in the proposition, and
finally, so the report is, got the Levi
sohn Bros. into it.
The Highland Boy is said to be very
rich copper property, and the company
is now completing SmelterS. The plant
is being built under the supervision of
Frank KleDetko, superintendent of the
Boston & Montana company here,
and WILL it is said, be very complete in
every detail. The Miners informant
gave il as his opinion that when this
property gets into regular running or
der the Lewisohn Bros. will have all
the copper Of their own that they will
care about handling.
What Mr.. Burrage is doing here is
not known He has been in Montana
for several days, and has probably been
known. been in close consultation with
the officers of the Boston companies
here. Before coming tc Montana he
was in Nevada examining some prop
critics, as the following communication
in the Engineering and Mining Journal
from Elko county, Nevada, shows:
There cannot be any doubt now Of
NeVada's falling into line as a copper
producer soon The reports from Lone
Mountain, near Elko, are very fiatter-
ing. The Boston company, Of which
Mr.. a. c. Burrage of Boston is the rep
resentariye, has now secured nearly
every claim in the district; in fact, all
with the exception Of the Copper King
and its extensions, the latter being
owned by the George Bliss estate
(AIorton, Bliss & Coz, and others. The
public will probably hear more of Mr..
Burrage's operations, now that he and
his friends have secured all outlying

TO PUT IN RoAsTERs.
Mercur Mills to Be Equipped With
Them This Year.


Them This Year.
The putting in of roasters at the diff
ferent mills in the Camp Floyd district
promises to be quite an industry dur
ing the present year. Every mine, and
we might add, every prospect contains
some ore, rich in gold values, but con-
tanning substances, principally sui
phides, that renders the recovery of the
gold values by the cyanide process diff
ficult or impossible. In the producing
mines these ores have been left to
await the time when science would
solve the problem, and in the meantime
experiments have been in progress at
the various mines
Although the quantity of this base
ore is small compared with the oXidiZed
variety, the accumulation of years
spent in developing has left large bodies
of it in sight. At the Mercur in every
tunnel and drift large bodies of it can
be seen. blocked out and passed in the
search for good teaching ore. The Sac
ramentc has thousands of tons of black
ore, rich in gold but resisting the cyan
ide. The Sunshine mine shut down be-
cause of a failure to successfully eX-
tract the values. Even the Daisy and
La Cigale have found base ores in their
workings, and there is no doubt all
NiiO nave Dttn Tree lIOilt lHlS
Will yet find the same conditions.
The success attending the introduce
ton of roasting at the Golden Gate
mill caused the investigation of this
method, and it is now a settled matter
and it has been demonstrated that not
only can all the ore be made subject to
the teaching process by roasting, but
better results are obtained from the OK
idiZed ore.
Of
ed that roasterS are a necessary attach
ment to every cyanide mill, and steps
are being taken to put them in as soon
as possible.
