C%OLORADOANS COMING
Nevada Fields Attract Mining Men
From Cripple Creek.

Goldfield already numbers in its rap
idly growing population a large number
of operators and miners from the Grip
pie Greek district, but they are only the
advance guard of those who are coming
here from the Centennial State. The
Reno Gazette reports the arrival there a
few days ago of James Murray and W.
r. Foley, en- route to Tonopah and Gold
field to look over the mining resources
of the great Southern Nevada camps
with a view to taking hold of several
properties that may give promise of de-
veloping into producers. They state
that because of the strike conditions
throughout the Centennial State the
mining industry is practically paralyzed
and the conditions in Cripple Greek are
particularly strained. As a result a
great many of the mine operators of Col
orado are leaving for other fields.
In Denver, Colorado Springs and Pu-
eblo, and in fact in all of the mining
centers Of the State, a very favorable
opinion is entertained regarding Nevada,
and especially of the Tonopah and Gold
field districts. All news from this sec
ton is eagerly sought for and there will
unquestionably be almost a hegira OF
mining men to the Nevada fields within
the lex few months. Many are ar
ranging their affairs as rapidly as posi-
BILE to leave for the new gold fields and
as the greatness of the camp becomes
more generally knownsthrough the ex-
ploitation of the district in the press OF
the country and a continued increase in
the output of precious metals, a great
influx of people will surely follow. 1t
will be no surprise, declares Mr.. Foley,
if Tonopah and Goidfeld are destined to
become another Cripple Creek.
With reference to the showing of the
properties of the district Mr.. Foley said
he was ignorant, excepting so far as he
had been informed from those he had
talked with who had been there and the
newspaper comment he had read. 1t is
a remarkable fact, however, that he had
not met or heard of a single man who,
after visiting the camp, had other than
la good word for it. This could not be
said Of any other section he had heard
or read of.

NEVADA COAL ALL RIGHT
The Product Of Coaldale Mine to be
Utilized.

The officials of the Tonopah railroad
aave satisfied themselves that the Ne
yada coal from Coaldale is equal to and
in some respects superior to the Utah
coal they are now using, and as a do.
mestfc coal is superior to it, says the
Reno Gazette. This is Il matter of great,
importance as so far it has. only been
mined from a shallow depth and will
most certainly improve in quality as
greater depth is reached, while in point
Of cost it can be supplied very much
cheaper than the Utah coal which now
costs $7.75 per, ton at S~odaville. The
coal, which steams well and does not,
leave such a heavy clinker Is the Utah
coal, was supplied by the Nevada Fuel
and Manufacturing company which Own
the claims located by Petty and is the
only company mining coal in that sec.
ton, the principal stockholders being
Alonzo and Herbert Trip, F. a. Keith,
T. l.. eddie and B.. q. Gayden. A shaft
has been sunk on the vein to a depth OF
10 feet, where the coal is IS feet wide
between walls, and from this level a
~crosscut was run to a parallel vein II
feet wide, all solid coal of commercial
value.
The company will now sink an s by 10
shaft to open up the ground and mine
the coal on an extensive scale. The i'm
portance OF this industry to the district
and the whole State cannot, be overesti-
mated, as the success of this undertake
ing will settle the problem If cheap fuel
throughout Nevada.
