DESCRIPTION AND FILING CERrIFI
CATE.


CATE.
In the case OF Duncan vs.. Fulton the
court of Appeals of Colorado held that
the law general statute, section 2,4OO)
allows the filing of an additional certifi-
cate of the location of mining claim
where the locator apprehends that his
original certificate is defective or he de-
sires to change his surface boundaries or
take part in an adjoining claim. The
court holds that when the original Ger.
tiiicate sufficiently located the discovery
shafts. and ar additional certificate gave
n description of metes and bounds start
ing with the discovery shaft and run
ming to posts in mound or stone, the
claim could be identified with certainty
from both certificates taken together,
and hence such certificates are admissi-
BILE to establish the locator's claim,
though neither alone sufficiently de-
scribe such claim. A description that
the mine is located in a certain section
on top of the mountain south of Dew
Drop gulch is sufficient, since the gulch
is natural object of permanent monu-
ment. And a description which locates
the mine certain distance from a pat
ented mine will be presumed to be a
natural object or permanent monument.

w. j. Chamberlain and his associate,
Colonel Hacker, in extending the $50.
foot level OF the Powers mine in Willis

body Of excellent energite ore. This
mine is celebrated for the energite ore
which carries very high percentage OF
copper. East Of where this ore has been
opened up party of leasers are at work,
the outlook being favorable to their

GUGGENHEIM SONS CONSOLIDATION

GUGGENHEIM SONS CONSOLIDATION.
The New York Engineering and NJ in
ing Journal OF January 2G editoriully
comments as follows:
The consolidation OF the firm OF M.
Guggenheim's Sons with the American
Smelling and Refining Company, which
has been 30 long under discussion, is
now completely arranged, and will
probably be completed during the pres.
ent month. According to tho official
statement tho property turned over will
include the smeltiog works at Pueblo,
Colorado, Montery and Aquascalientes.
Mexico: the electrolytic refining plant
at Pert Amboy, New Jersey; various
interests in South America, and the
working capital and cash assests OF tho
concern, with S6,06G,G67 in cash. Tho
payment for this property il S5i,2c) 1000
stock OF the American Company, one
half common and one-half preferred,
At current quotations this stock would
bring in the market about s36,0Co,000,
and the ptyment for the Guggenheim
smeltcrs, after deducting the cash and
cash assests turned over, would amount
TO about e2l 100000 This ought to be
very satisfactory price to the sellers.
1t is understood, however, that the
members Of tho Guggenheim firm do not
intend to withdraw, but that some OF
them will take an active interest in the
management OF the consolidated com.
pany. II is not probable that this will
result In any change in the general
policy OF the company

ARGo pLANrLowERs PRICES

Tuesdays Rocky Mountain News says
that mine owners are enthusiastic over
the sweeping reduction in the charge of
treating tailings from the Clear Creek
district. The price heretofore has been
$3.50 ton, but the Argo plant is offer
ing to treat the ore at 50 ton, re-
duction Of Sl.50 ton. About ten or
twelve carloads OF this kind OF ore are
arriving daily in this city, but it is
thought the low treatment charge will
expedite the movement as mine owners
are by no means sure that the rate will
be in effect for any great length Of time.
The plants OF the American Smelling
company are not participating in the re-
duced rate. 1t is not precipitated by
the Kansas City chemical works which
were in need of the peculiar character
of orc coming out of Clear Creek canon.
AS the Guggenheim plant at Pueblo also
needs certain quantity of Gilpin county
ores the reduced price is in effect in Pu-
eblo. 1t was stated by we'll informed
smelter man last evening that the coal
strike is interfering greatly with local
smelling operations and the output of the
Denver plants will be much lower than
is accomplished under ordinary condi-
tions. On account OF the strike the ore
buyers have been ordered to go slow in
making purchases.
