MORE CYANIDE PLANTS
Hills Mining Men Are Building Them
All the Time.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Deadwood, S. D., Oct. 5.-A spur of
track is being put in by the Elkhorn com
pany to the Montezuma mine just outside
the limits of this city, in Deadwood
guleh. large vein Of copper and iron
pyrites has been opened, which will be
shipped to the smelter in this city for
a tux. The output of the mine will be
about fifty tons day.
The cyanide process is doing great
things in the Hills. The latest modifica-
tlon of the process is to treat successfully
the old ore dumps at the Iron Hill mine,
in Carbonate camp, which contains about
twelve ounces of silver, large percent
age of iron and some arsenic. The last
cleanup from the cyanide tanks gave an
extraction of about 65 per cent of the
values. 1t has been understood heretofore
that an aFsenical ore could not be treated
by this process, but 1t is being done in
several mines in the Hills. The Iron Hill
ore dump Is being treated by @. A. and
Frank Allen.
An air compressor plant is being in
stalled at the Spanish r. mine, in this
camp, to furnish power for sinking the
main shaft to the lower quartz level. A
large ledge of cyaniding ore has been en-
eountered by the CASTLE Rock Mining
company of Spearfsh, on a property in
Spearfish canyon. The company proposes
to erect cyanide plant.
The Mystic electrical chlorinating plant
has started UP again with doubled ca
pacity, now being able to treat $50 tons
Of ore daily.

IT HOLDS THE BELT
Two Harbors the Best Shipping Ore
Port in the World.
4,5oo, 900 GROSS TONS FOR SEASON
State at Large Good for over 1O,-
100000 Tons-MineraI on
Chisholm TOWnsite.

Special to The Journal.
Duluth, Mimi, Oct, 5.-Iron ore ship
ments for the month were not up to those
Of August. but they are very large. It Is
| probable that the shipments from Two
Harbors for the season will amount to
about 4,500, 900 gross tons, which will be
record breaking total for any port OF
the world. To date the total from Min
nesota ports has been more than S,O00,0 600
tons, and it will be easy to bring up the
season to more than 10,000,000, which
seems to be the figure upon which most
experts are agreed will be the states ag-
gregate this year.
1t Is said that ore has been found In
section 16, township 50, range II, which
lies about four miles north of the village
of Virginia and north of the granite out
crop. The reports are not credited in
mining circles.
Mineral rights have been granted to ex-
plorers for the townsite Of Chisholm,
which is about four miles northeast of
Hibbing. 1t is not generally thought any
thing but float ore exists there, but the
explorers have paid several thousand dol
lars In advance royalties. They will ex-
plore at once.
Petit & Robinson have leased 100 acres
near Elba, part of 1t the townsite of Nc
Kinley, to officials OF the Republic Iron
and Steel who will explore there at once.
Their Is likely to be some ore in the To-
cation.
e. F. Sweeney and others have taken
tracts in the southern part Of township
30, range Is. and will explore there at
once. They have most of the Stevens
lands in this vicinity.
Mahoning Ore company will ship about
500 900 tons this year and has already sent
down about $3.50 of this amount. II is
now mining slowly.
Stevenson mine has received a second
100-ton steam shovel for use in the ore.
Three shovels are constantly employed in
the stripping and work is progressing
very fast. The mine has shipped so far
this year something under 100000 tons.
Chisholm mine, which has been troubled
with water, is now running again, but its
shipments for the year will probably not
reach the $4,000 tons hoped for by the
management. That 1t Is able to mine any
amount is remarkable achievement,
considering the short time the mine has
bene open. 1t will ship about $4,000 tons.
AT Fayal mine the stripping contractors
will do lot of additional work east of the
county road which will be moved and
the area Of the great open pit will be in
creased in a short time. The mine is
shipping at the rate Of about 5000 tons
a day.
NJ. L. Fay of Virginia is exploring near
Biwabik with several drills. 1t Is hoped
to find ore on a tract lying just south Of
the Canton mine and there Mr.. Fay has
one of his drills at work,
Sharon Ore company is shipping ore to
the Sharon Steel company at Sharon, Pa.
1t has been opening milling mine for
nearly year but has been greatly i'm
peded by bed Of quicksand that lay over
the ore.

CARIBoo's MASS OF GOLD
New York Figures Too High-Th,
Season Disappointing.

Special to The Journal
Vancouver. B. c.. Oct. 5.-There seems
to have been some mistake in the figures
OF report sent by The Journal
New York correspondent of the gold OF
the Cariboo mine recently received and
bought at the United States army Of
nee of that city. In the issue of Sept. 1e
the details Of the consignment are given
as follows:
BY far the largest mass of gold ever re-
ceived at the United States assay Office here
mas just made its appearance. 1t came from
the far-away Cariboo mines OF British Col
umbia and was in the form of a erucible
which had held 1t In its melted state. It
was 800 fine, weighed over 500 pounds and
was valued at $5l300O,
Five hundred pounds of gold. 800 fine.
could not at the standard rate of twelve
ounces to the pound have been worth
Sb1S,OOO, but at most--taking gold at 500
an ounce-$120,000. Making further al
lowance for the gold being, as stated, 800
fine. it is probable that the value Of the
consignment was Sis, 900, as when it left
the Cartboo mine at Bullion 1t was given
in round figures as worth $115, 900 This
represented the first clear up of the sea-
SON at this noted British Columbian hy-
draulic property.
Since then second and similar clean up
has been made, realizing but $35, 0OO
Water has fallen short, through a dry
season and the second is the final clean
up of the year. The mine has therefore
yielded rather less than $3.50, 900 of gold
this year, as against nearly $3.50, 900 last
season. This is disappointing to those
interested, who include leading Canadian
Pacific railroad men. Hence the payment
OF a dividend Is again deferred.
The mine has to date yielded more than
S6OO,OO0 in gold. but practically all has
been expended on plant and working
expenses, so costly is British Columbian
hydraulicing on large scale. It is, how
ever, hoped that first return will be
made next season, on an expenditure of
capital and ore values which must by
now nave approximated $1,500 900, in the
course of some five years of development.

BUSINESS oF,A WEEK
Trade In Great Volume, but Cereals
Meak and Lower.
New York. OF. 6.-Bradstreet,s saws,

New York, Oct. 5.-Bradstreet's says;
While the speculative markets. except
for cotton, show reactionary tendencies, gen
eral distributiye trade and industry are ac-
tive ana heavy volume Of business is going
forward. All obtainable measures of prOduc-
tion and movement for the nine months of
the year testify TO this.
BanF clearings are heavily in excess OF
previous years. railway earnings continue
very favorable and talk Of scarcity Of cars
In different sections of the country Is heard.
Failures are more numerous than last year
or in 1899, but fewer than in recently pre-
ceding years, and, while liabilities have ex-
panded, this has been due mainly to few
large financial suspensions before reported
because current failures and liabilities are
not as heavy as earlier in the year.
Inc cereals are very generally weak and
lower IN all markets Large receipts. liquida-
tion by tired lcngs and unsatisfactory cable
adVices have weakened wheat slightly. Ex-
port trade, however, fails to be greatly stimu-
lated. Corn has weakened slightly on i'm
the professional liquidation and poor export
inquiry. Western shipments are heavy and
larger movement in this latter direction is
Print cloths have been firm with little do
ing at the recent advance. Staple cottonS
have been rather quiet as regards new de-
mand, but iobbers report a good business in
prints, which are rather scarce, and leading
manufacturers Of ginghams are heavily sold
ahead New business in woolen goods is
quiet, but the mills are busy on winter wear
put has been booked. Wool is steady, former
prices are insisted upon and consumption is
heavy Demand for boots and shoes is ac-
tive.
Iron trade reports are the best Of the year.
Foundry and Bessemer pig are very active
at Chicago and Pittsburg. Bessemer is 25c
higher at the latter market, which reports
September pig iron sales the largest since
January. Finished and structural mills are
two to three months behind on orders and
railroad business already booked insures ac
tivity for the next year.
Wheat, including -four, exports for the week
aggregate 6,195, $40 bu, as against 6,470, 1852 bu
last week and 4,459,l ,l67 bu in this week last

crops on the land and 1t will be for this
lode that the search will be made.
1t is rumored locally that the Maylower
has encountered a strong copper lode on
Its property. Work is confined to dia-
mond drilling and prosecuting.
Copper shipments continue heavy and
many of the docks are bare of metal. The
INSTRUMENTATION syndicate of mines is
very tardy in shipping it's product and it
is thought some arrangement will be
made during the winter for the shipment
Of the 5000 tons of copper on the docks
at Dollar Bay. The Hancock Calumet
railroad is being changed from a narrow
gauge road to standard gauge and once
the copper was loaded in the cars it
could be shipped direct to the purchaser
without being rehandled.
Ground has been broken at the Mass
mine for shaft on the Knowlton lode and
In short time another shaft will be
started. The shaft sinking on the Ever
green lode Is down to the tenth level

BOUNDARY MINING NOTES
Promising Location ON Moose Lake
Staked-An Indian Find.

Special to The Journal
Rat Portage, Ont, Oct. 5.-Tom Camp
bell and Louis Larose have staked a loca-
tion near Moose lake on which they have
five distinct veins. Two of these are at
right angles, one being ten feet and the
other four feet wide, and both pan gold.
Work was recently started on the Lar
son mine near Dryden and the rock moved
gives good assays. Ore from the bot
tom Of the shaft assays $22 a ton in
gold.
The official report from the Mikado mine
for August gave 163 ounces of gold by
amalgamation and 124 ounces by the cyan
ide process. The mill was operated twen-
ty-two days during the month.
Indians to the north in stirring up their
camp fire found quick silver among the
ashes. This excited their curiosity and
they examined the formation of the rock
and discovered they were encamped on a
quartz vein in granite formation. The
vein is twenty-five feet wide and, accord
ing to the description given, is regular
in definition. 1t contains cinnibar and

Chicago Country Hides.

Chicago, Oct. 1.-The general feeling in the
market is one of confidence. 1t is true that
the large buyers especially the eastern tan
ners. are still talking discouragingy and are
holding off as much as possible. Their OBJ
Ject is to work for lower prices. At the
same time, the run of hides now coming
into Chicago is carrying some very good lots !;
probably as good or better than will be OBJ
tainahle at any time again this season. Tan
ners do not want to let these good lots pass,
and there have been evidences Of increased
interest during the week on their part. The
trade in general does not look for any reduc-
tion, but, on the contrary, some grades are
higher by fraction now than week ago
Quotations are firm as follows:

Boston Wool Market.

Boston, Mass, Oct. 5.-The Commercial
Bulletin reviews the wool situation to-day,
as follows; The market was quieter, but
prices to-day and even the high prices paid
IN Montana, are justified by sales this week.
The high activity of mills is evinced by the
fact that mills that habitually scour all their
own wool have been buying secured wool
In Boston this week, as their own securing
plants cannot keep UP with the activity of
the rest Of the machinery. The receipts Of
wool In Boston since Jan. l have been 22O,-
33S, 400 pounds, against 1872, ,499, ,S65 pounds for
the same period in 1900. The Boston ship
ments to date are 1914, ,225, ,517 pounds, against
sales Of 10S, 900 pounds for the same period
in 1900.

New Shaft in Commission.

Special to The Journal.
1shpeming, Mich. Oct. 5.-The first skip
load Of ore was hoisted through the new shaft
OF the Lake Hematite mine Of the Steel cor
poratien in this city yesterday afternoon
The shaft is called No. 2, to distinguish from
the old shaft, which has been in commission
for many years, for this is one of the older
mines Of the range. The shafthouse is by
far, the best on the range, being unusually
high and constructed in the most approved
manner, and OF the best material. No 2 was
sunk in order that large body of high grade
ore lying under and about No. might be
mined to advantage.
