HOME NEWS VIA RENO.

Reno journal: Supt. Fred ]. Sic
bert Of the Tonopah Mining Com
pany. the Tonopah Tunnel and Mining
Company and the klondyke Mining
Company, came in from Tonopah
| Friday evening. He was accompa-
MED by Mrs H. NJ. Oddie and Miss
Anna G. Oddie. They went ON to
San Francisco and will return to the
camp in about "a week.
In conversation at Reno Mr..
Siebert said;
The Tonopah Mining Company is
now employing about two hundred
men. There are from thirty to thirty
five on the Tunnel company's payroll
and thirty men are working in the
klondyke mine Nothing but strict
development work is being done. The
only ores extracted are in the course
of this work, yet six hundred horses
are used in transporting ore TO the
railroad. Nearly all this is new ore
extracted from the various workings.
A great deal of the ore taken out by
the easers is still on the dumps.
THE lodges in Tonopah continue
to widen with depth and preserve
their surface values. The proper ton
of the value is one ounce of gold to
one hundred ounces of silver. In our
lowest workings-a Wine fifty feet
below the 300 level--we have ledge
eight feet in width that averages
1850 per ton. The development work
has already thrown $4,000, 600 in
sight, ready to be stopped out.
There is great activity in the
camp. The Fraction is showing up
especially we'll All the business peo-
pie are making money and good
miners are kept steadily employed.
OF course, | suppose you hear a great
deal of knocking by people who
come out of the camp. The fact is,
many OF those who leave Tonopah
do so for very good reasons. The
reports of sickness were greatly
overestimated In fact they We're
groundless.
You ask me if we propose to
erect smelters. | do not want to be
quoted as saying so, for | do not
know, but it is a fact that we are
looking for fluxes and have already
found fine lot of gaena. The com
ing water and electric power will
greatly stimulate mining and the
reduction of ores. 1t will prevent
the confagration that has been
feared. At present every person in
town may be said to belong to the
fire department. and there is fire
extinguisher in nearly every building.
Yes, Tonopah is all right, but it is
hardly necessary for you to take my
word for it.
