MINES AND MINING NEWS
OUR NORTHWESTERN MINES.
Items Cleaned From Late Reports
All Districts Are Being Developed
"A Prosperous Year Is Predicted
Mining Notes and Personals.

The fall season of 1900 opens with
the brightest and most flattering pros
poets known in Baker City, Ore, camp
in many years. New York and Chica-
go capitalists, or their representatives,
are in the Gable Grove, Granite, Corhu-
copia and Brazos districts inspecting
different properties with view of pur-
chase. They say there is plenty of
money in the east now for investment
in Oregon mines and expect to see a
number of deals closed before winter.
There are one or two propositions on
foot involving more than half million
dollars each, and numerous small deals
are under way on every hand Activ-
ity in railroad circles and the compile
ton of the Sumpter Valley extension,
with the prospect of the building of
Balliet's line to the Seven Devils, have
all added to the general and very no.
ticable improvement in business. A
telegram from Mr.. Ballet states that he
will be there the first Of next week and
commence work on his recent purchase.
the gold Ridge mine, adjoining the
White Swan The new machinery is
already on the ground, and he expects
to do large amount of work this fall.
President Thomas Burke and Gen
eral Manager J. E. Esselstyn return
ed recently from the North American

erything was moving very smoothly.
Captain H. c. Thompson, manager of
the Bunker Hill mine, Gable Cove dis
trict,reported that in the lower level
of the Bunker Hill the workmen had

1t was reported by one of the owners of
the Mormon Boy mine, which is stu
ated in the Gable Cove district, near
the Golconda, that that property had
just been bonded to New York capital
lists. If reports are correct, James Ar
thur, an old and experienced prospect
or, is the owner of wonderful body
of ore a mile and a half north of the
limits of Baker.

REPUBLIC,

Supt. McEntire, of the Review mine,
near Chesaw, Wn., reports the long
tunnel in distance of 900 feet.
The wood fiume for the Republic COM
pany has been completed. The water
has been turned into it and run for
more than five miles of the distance
1t promises to be a complete success.
The management Of the Princess
Maud has decided to sink a winze a far
Their depth of 100 feet. 1t is 200 feet
below the tunnel level. The tunnel cut
the ledge at a depth of about $50 feet
by the dip of the ledge
The force on the Quilp has been re-
duced slightly. The work of sinking
the shaft has been discontinued. and
so has the diamond drilling. A force
of men is operating one machine drill
in the raise, which is being made about
so feet north of the Wine.
The Mountain Lion has one battery
in the mill disabled and is not likely
to be again in operation for five or six
days. The cause was a broken pull
ley. A new one is on the way and
should reach there by Sunday. Two
machine drills are working in the lower
or 450-foot level, and there are also
two machines working in the 300-foot
level.
Work has been suspended in the Re-
public mine pending the completion of
the mill. This has been rendered nee
essary because there is no place to
store the ore that was being mined.
Work could go on, but it would be at
an unnecessary expense. The mine
is in a. position to commence produc-
ing large output and to maintain it
at any time, and it is therefore needless
to continue mining when this means
only extra handling of the ore. This
is the condition that prevails at al
most every mine in the camp, especial
ly the Quilp, Black Tail San Poll and
Tom Thumb, the only exception being
the Mountain Lion. AS it's mill has
been running constantly and treating
about ninety tons of ore per day, there
is plenty of room in the Slopes for all
the ore chat can be broken.
Three faces in the Morning Glory
show up remarkably rich. one on the
second level and two on the first level.
On the first level there is about seven
feet of ore. On the second, or low
est level, the ledge is nine feet wide.
The ore runs from $40 to 5000 per ton
for a width of six feet and for a length
in the drift of 16 feet Gold is visi-
BILE to the naked eye in considerable
quantities in the face of the drift on
the lower level. An average of 46
assays gives a value of $3.50 per ton.
Eighteen tons is ready to ship at val
lie of $3.50 per ton. This shipment
will be made soon.

Pattersons ranch, in Polk county
yielded 16 tons.
w. T. Emery of Roseburg, will take
two carloads of veal calves to Dawson.
He is rounding up the stock, prepare
tory to leaving this week.
Centralia reports light prune crop
in that section of Washington, but of
excellent quality.
Freeman Laid stated at La Grande,
the other day, that he has two crops
of wheat on hand and 100 head of hogs,
and unless he gets so cents per bushel
clear of the sacks he will feed it.
George Iremonger, one of the leading
stockmen of Wheeler county, has sold
his sheep to John M. Brown OF Lone
Lock, who pays him SO per head for
1900 ewes and 81 per head for 400
lambs. Mr.. Iremonger also expects to
sell his fine sheep ranch at Waterman
in the near future.
A new device for drying hops is be-
ing used with great success this sea-
son by A. Wolf, prominent dealer and
extensive grower at Silverton. His
new process consists of drying the hops
in boxes placed on the kiln floor, which
keeps the hops from packing in the CEN
ter or breaking in removing to the
store-room. No lupulin is lost in any
way

A Coal Famine.

Philadelphia, Sept. l6-Should the
anthracite coal miners strike be of pro
lcnged duration it is possible that foreign
countries will feel its effects as seriously
as they will be felt in this country, if not
to a greater degree. The National Asso.
citation of Manufacturers is almost daily
receiving inquiries from abroad which in.
dictate how urgent is the demand in Eu.
rope for American coal. The letters are
nom coal merchants who want this couD.
erys fuel to supply their regular trade
and from business men who see in the
scarcity of coal on the continent an op-
pcrtumty to engage in a profitable busi.
ness. The National Association Of Man
ufacturers sends all communications Of
the kind to mine operators and shippers,
bringing buyer and seller promptly to,
gether. With in the past few days inquir-
les have been received from Dusseldorf,
Paris, Glasgow, Berlin and Zurich regard
ing the prices and facilities for furnishing
American coal. 5. w. Hanauer formerly
a Philadelphia manufacturer and at pres
ent vice consul general of the United
States at Frankfort, Germany, writes as
fellows to the National Association Of
Manufacturers.
The coal famine in Germany CONTINUES

Trains Collide.

Nanaimo, b. c., Sept l6--Coal trains
Ne | from Ladysmith and No. 10 from
Alexandria collided today about two miles
north Of Ladysmith ON the Esquimault &
Nanaimo railway. The trains met on the
center OF the bridge, No. lO7. The APP

mines; Samuel Walton, engineer No. /
Hugh Tompson, fireman: II. Saunders,
brakeman.
The cause of the accident was mis-
placed signal. When the engineers saw
one another as the trains rushed down the
incline they reversed and made every
effort to bring up their engines, but the
impetus was too great and they smashed
together with tremendous force, right in
the middle OF the trestle, one train top
ping over into the ravine. Fisher and
Walton were killed on the spot, the others
died a few minutes later.

A ten-stamp quartz mill has been
bought for the treatment of ore from
the Yellow Jacket, on Champion creek,
near Ymir.
1t is expected that the Jewel mine,
Long Lake camp, will soon begin max
ing shipments of ore to the Silica re-
duction works near Rossland, for test
purposes.
The dismantling of the Lily May at
Rossland, which was sold for indebt-
edness some time ago, is almost COM
pleted. All the machinery but the
hoist has now been removed. The
property is not likely to be worked for
some time.
Within the past six months the Knob
Hill, Old Ironsides, Gray Eagle and
the CRANKY Consolidated will be con-
solidated into one company, with a cap
ital of Is or 20 million dollars accord
ing to Montreal dispatch to the To-
ronto World. A refinery is to be built
at Grand Forks and the smelter capac-
ity largely increased.
In connecting the workings at the
new shaft to those of the old at the 200
foot level on the Nickel Plate at Ross
land, fine body of ore was encountered
in the crosscut about two weeks ago.
This has since been proved in two
places. In the second a Slope has
been commenced, which is % feet wide
and of a good shipping value clear
across its width. This lies about 200
feet south of the main ledge of the
mine and is practically a new ore body
which, it is thought, will prove equal in
extent to that of the old. This makes
the third vein of pay ore found in the
mine.
A serious accident at the lie Roi mine
last week resulted in the injury of
four men-Larry McElvay, Charles
Hensley, Owen Bigland and Mike Sefk
who were at work in the sinking of
the big shaft about 60 feet below the
800-foot level. The skip from the 800
foot level and its weight of several tons
gathered terrific momentum in the des-
cent. 1t tore away all distractions I'M
til 1T reached the machine bar at the
bottom of the shaft. The four men
were imprisoned beneath it but were
promptly released. Sefik's wounds
were sligrt. Bigland got an ugly
scalp wound. Hensley had his collar
bone broken and some of his fingers
were so badly crushed that they had to
be amputated. McElvey had a leg
broken and may have suffered inter
nal injuries. His condition is critic
