feet wide, and it is the intention to work
the mineral regardless of any difficulty.
MIR. Hancnett says that the ore will be
mined, for the tunnel has expended too
much money to permit local differences
to arise and stop the work. He does not
say that he will work the ore, but one
can judge from his conversation that a
trump card will be played in the final
game. With the Newhouse Tunnel COM
pany in possession, it may require the
sinking OF shafts on several veins from
the surface to prove ownership. II this
rule should be made, both the Gem Ex-
tension and Freighters' Friend shafts
will be sunk. While it is figured that
the depth of the vein changes from that
in the surface workings, and the strike
was made at depth of fully 1000 feet
below the surface, it will be seen that
considerable Development will be neces-
sary to connect the tunnel with the
workings Of these mines.

GALENA GROUP OF MINES.

oAsoCAo Nj
The Galena group of veins on Central
City hill, embracing some 1000 feet of the
Burgher, Galena and Galena Extension
lodes, at the present time is producing
with very light force of mirers at work
from 400 to 450 tons of ore per month.
All the ore mined is hoisted through one
main shaft that has attained depth of
$50 feet, both veins being connected by
cross cut. Levels have been extended
at intervals each way from the shaft, ag-
gregating 1000 feet.
The Burgher is one of the oldest loca-
tions on Central City hill, its discovery
dating back into the early portion OF
1860, when the veins were then divided
into claims OF 100 feet each. The surface
dirt and quartz crushed at the old water
mill Of Job V. Kimber in Eureka gulch
yielded all the way from 10 to 20 ounces
gold per cord, the stamp mills OF that
early period being of very crude char
acter and the appliances used for gold
saving of the most primitive kind, no at
tention being paid to the concentrates.
This vein has been worked at intervals
ever since that time until it come into
the possessionship of the present owners,
the Alpha Gold and Silver Mining CON-
pany. The trend of the ore chutes is to
the east, and as depth is attained the
blind veins or feeders Of the main vein
widen, which enlarges the ore bodies as
well as enlarging the values in the ore.
Certified returns of runs made at the
Polar Star stamp mill in Black Hawk
show as high as 20 ounces OF gold per
cord in value. The smelling ore con-
tains gold, silver, copper and lead values
from S75 to Shopper ton, although select
ed samples have given values from $500
to $4,000 per ton. The stamp mill ore
gives by plate amalgamation from . to 5
ounces gold per cord, and the concen-
trates from the mill ore, after crushing,
from SS to $40 per ton. With greater
depth and through levelage the opening
up of other ore reserves, the possibilities
of the property could be greatly increas-
ed in its output Of both stamp mill and
smoking ore. One advantage the prop.
erty has is that the ore is easily mined
and the water handled by means of sn
average sized iron water bucket. The
mine is equipped with steam plant
having a capacity OF reaching 1900 feet
in depth.

SHELTER MAY CLOSE.

Fear is expressed in mining circles at
Butte, Montana, that if the present
effective freight strike on the Great
Northern road, which carries ore from
Butte to Great Falls, is not settled soon,
it may result in the temporary closing
down of the great Boston & Montana
smelter at Great Falls for lack of ores
The Anaconda smelter at Anaconda also
depends upon this road for coal supply.
Consequently the strike may also entail
partial closing down there. The strike
situation instead of improving is appar-
emily growing worse, as some miscreants
wrecked the freight train, blocking the
passenger train at Great Falls late the
night of the I'd instant.
