Preparations Being Made TO Start

DIAMOND DRILL IN USE
POINT FASTENED IN SOFT FOR
NATION.
Some Difficulty Experienced In
Working It Loose-No Question of
Joe Bowers Stockholders Accept

sition.
fsnecial correspondence.l

Vernal, Nov. 29.-George A. Londs-
berry, manager of the Dyer mine. came
in on the stage tonight and will go up
to camp tomorrow The company has
been operating diamond drill of late
and has driven it to a depth of lOo feet
below the big thirty-foot vein OF bog
iron which was encountered at the loot
of the hill. The borings show lime Tor
the entire distance, which is deemed
rather remarkable from the fact that
only seventy-five feet away the forty
foot shaft on the Old Glory is in light
sandstone. Word came down yester-
day that the point of the drill had
broken into a soft formation and had
become fastened. Some difficulty is be-
ing experienced in working the point
loose, which it is believed has been
driven into vein matter of some de-
scription.
Teams are now engaged hauling coke
from Carter and iron ore from the iron
shaft for fiuxing, and the long de-
layed starting of the smelter is looked
for at an early date. Owing TO the
difficulty in getting fuel in over the
mountain roads during the winter
months. it is not likely that contin-
uous run can be made before next sea-
son. The mine is said to be in splendid
shape for turning out ore and will
make, a great showing when called
upon
Perry Bingham came in from the
Jesse Ewing country yesterday and
reports that prospecting is progressing

dence in the future of the camp and
predicts a boom there next season

ORE FROM THE ALASKA.
Two Cars Will Be In the Market
Today.
(Special Corresnonaence. ,

tSpecial COrreSpOnuence.l
Silver City, Nov. 3O.-Morris Hunt,
acting manager of the Alaska mine,
loaded two cars of ore from the prop
erty yesterday and billed them out to-
day, as a sort OF Thanksgiving offer
ing. Mr.. Hunt expects the lot to sample
close to so ounces silver and z per cent
copper. The ore Stope is about sixty
feet long, and is going down.
Conditions with the Silver Park con-
tinue to improve very materially. Su-
perintendent Towle is making ready to
install a donkey engine on the north
drift of the $50 over the winze which
is now down about eighty feet, all the
way in ore. About a car and a half OF
first grade mineral is in the ore house,
about $50 tons of second-class ore or
mill dirt on the dump. 1t seems to con-
tain very good lead values. The verti-
cal shaft is down 2S5 feet.
Drifting on the vein in the Picnic at
the 500 has twice this week disclosed
small bits of very good ore-one lead
streak in particular 1t was two feet
wide, but showed no continuity. Pass
ing from this, on the north drift, they
encountered about the same amount OF
white iron. No assay tests have been
made on any of the new finds. The
south drift is principally in a heavy
brown iron quartz. The folks at the
Picnic. were greatly amused over the
interview with Buchanan as published
in the Tribune, and the alleged notable
strike.
Since the visit of Messrs. Lee and
Palmer Of the Four Aces, the camp
has been full of speculation and ru-
mors concerning what was likely to
happen. Some said that a compromise
between the South Swansea and Aces
had realIv heen consilrruiat ted hut the
truth is that a force of men have been
placed at work in the Four Aces with
view of proving their apex. With the
apex thoroughly established, they VIII
commence the suit and ask the court
to compel the South Swansea folks to
remove the bulkhead put in by them.
The drift in the Cleopatra off of the
3S5 level shows better, or at least more,
ledge matter than the conf
pany has had yet. Manager c. E. Allen,
when here yesterday, took big sample
away with him to have tested.

BOWERS SUIT SETTLED.
Burnham Estate to Get 100000
Shares--Capital to Be Increased.

The trouble between the Burnham
estate and the Joe Bowers Mining COM
pany has reached a basis for settle
ment. At the conference held at the
Knutsford hotel night before last be-
tween representatives of the estate and
officers of the defendant company an
understanding was reached on the plan
outlined in yesterday mornings Herald.
That is. the Burnham estate will re-
Hnquish all its claims to the Joe Bow
ers ground provided the company in
creases its capital stock from 10000
TO 100000 shares. and that the total in
crease Of 100000 shares is to be issued
TO the Burnham estate.
The directors of the company are
satisfied to make the adjustment of the
dispute on those lines. but before it
can be done il will be necessary to call
a special stockholders meeting to de-
eide the question legally and definitely.
To change the articles of incorpora-
ton of the company, providing for an
Increase in the capital stock, will re-
quire the votes of at least two-thirdS of
the stockholders.
If the proposition should fail to re-
ceive the support of the required num-
Der of stockholders, then it would be
necessary 10 go ahead with the suit,
which is set for the February term of
court at Nephi There is no doubt
about the result of the stockholders
meeting. however, so it is safe to say
the case will never require litigation
to bring il to a termination.
Mr. C. T. Burnham was seen at the
Knutsford last night. He said his side
was satisfied TO take 100000 shares of
the stock and he believed it was to the
best interests of all parties concerned
that the trouble was ended.
With the title TO the Joe Bowers
property cleared up, the company can
now go ahead with its development
work and speedily open up big pro-
ducer.
The special stockholders meeting will
probably be called at once.
