building is situated at the lowe. part
of the plant and near the power house.
From here the ore is carried by belt
conveyor over the entire plant to it's
upper side, where it is delivered to the
fine crushing department, 100 feet away.
This department is 26x100 feet and so
feet high, and in il are installed gates,
rolls and Gillian mills. The water is
obtained by the work Of a Corliss en-
CINE, through a pumping plant OF 1000
gallons capacity a minute from the old
shaft or well. The foundation of this
plant is mostly Of concrete, of which
sc. 600 cubic feet have been used. The
concentrating room is 24OX50 feet and
contains thirty-fve Wiley tables and
four or five tables of other makes for
experimental purposes. The next move
of the process is to the Frue vanner
room, 240x24 feet, where the shines are
treated.
Huge Quarry Of Ore.
This plant viii have an initial capac-
ity of somewhat in excess of 500 tons
daily and is built on the unit plan, so
that it can be increased both ways TO
almost any capacity desired. the Ill
innate capacity contemplated being not
less than 5000 tons daily. Two tanks
Of 100, 900 gallons capacity each. situat-
late the water supply and furnish pro
lection to the plant from fire. This en-
terprise is unusual. both on account
of it's magnitude and the character Of
the ores to be handled. The mine, or
rather the huge quarry, is located some
two miles from the mill, to the south
and east, in the neighborhoOd of the
Columbia and United States properties.
Its area is go acres, of which il is con-
derlaid with a solid bed of ore. This
ore consists Of copper sulphides in small
particles scattered through the pOrphy-
~, and has proved TO be an ideal stun
for the simplest method Of concentra-
ton. The ore carries over per cent
copper and enough silver and gold to
bring up the gross value to about $3.50
per ton. The effect Of the concentration
win be to put about fifteen tons into
one, the concentrate to be sent to the
shelters in the valley below. This

extensive one. The trains coming in
climb elevated tracks, from which
their contents are discharged at the
places desired. The roasting process
precedes that of smelling and its OBJ
ject is to eliminate the sulphur from
the ore. Only such ores as carry over
a certain per cent of sulphur are treat
ed in this way. The roasted product
is then taken to the. furnaces and
there mixed with IRON. lime and coke,
the same as the crude ores, all of which
are taken in self-dumping cars over

ment. There are eight furnaces, one
OF which only is used for the reduction
OF copper ores to matte. This product

fair weather that was promised for to-
days race between Shamrock III and the
old challenger Shamrock 1. The wind
blew at more than twenty-five miIes

thick that a person could not see half

There was also big sea on. that broke
on the shore like the noise Of cannon.
Yachtsmen were also much disap-
pointed. as today's race was to have
been over . measured course, which was
not the case on Saturday, and they hoped
Tor a more favorable opportunity for
comparing the English yacht with the
Reliance.
Many yachtsmen came down this way
yesterday and paid their compliments
to Sir Thomas and his feet lying In

thusiastic over the challenger, her beau
tiful and graceful bearing as she rode
gently on the waves tugging on her
anchor. Those who saw her In a light

COURTNEY IN FAVOR
OF THREE-hILE RACES
Cornell Coach Says Four Miles Is
Too Great a Strain.

Before his departure from Pcughkeep
sic for Ithaca Charles Courtney, Cor
nell's rowing coach, declared himself as
strongly against the continuance of the
fourmile varsity race and in favor of
the substitution therefor Of a three-mile
contest. Courtney maintained that a
four mile pull is too great tax on a
young mans strength and expressed the
opinion that all question of rivalry could
as well be settled in three miles as four.
AS an evidence OF the strain on we'll
conditioned men OF a four-mile struggle,
he pointed out that half dozen crew
men collapsed in Fridays regatta
Courtney secuted the contention that a
threemile race would be more of
be just as great a strain as a four-miie
race.
So far as can be learned. however.
there is not much likelihood of an early
change in the distance of the annual
varsity. The stewards Of the Intercol-
legiate Rowing Association are believed
to prefer the longer course, on the
ground that it is a surer test OF en-
durance and stamina than a three-mile
contest.
II think a four mile race Is too great
a strain on young men," said Courtney.
Il have never believed in this length
OF contest. and If 1 had my way it
race substituted. In my experience I
have never seen a race in which the
question OF superiority would not have
been settled as satisfactorily in three
miles as in four.
1T is too much 70 ask boys to pull
four miles at the rate which they arc
now compelled to do. II is too great
physical exertion and, in my opinion.
unnecessary You ask any varsity crew
men whether they would not prefer
three-mile match and whether the fourth
mile does not. as a rule. require SUPER
human effort. and see whether they do
not all answer in the affirmative
would Ike 10 see a strong agitation in
favor Of the three-mile race"
