crash Of musketry all along the front

were sweeping through the camps.
There was no panic In Crooks COM
mand. II was surprise instead Of
panic. Every Confederate looked to
be man seven feet tall In that mist
and their advent was too sudden to
create panic. There was a rush for
the rear as fast as men could roll out
OF their tents, Crooks camps We're

ates did very little firing after the first
two or three volleys. They captured
men instead of shooting them down.
As they got possession OF the artillery
however, they opened on all the camps

had sowed the seeds of panic.
Emory lay behind Crook, and his
men had time to dress and turn out.
but there was no holding them. Fugi-
uyes came running and shouting. and
veterans OF dozen fights were knock
ed out In trice.

panic soon spread back TO the Sixth

but his men fell out by hundreds TO
plunder the Union camps. and By and

Slpt. Harness, of the Fortune Min l nI Company, operating near Silver l King, reports good progress in de- l veopment work at the company B mines and very flattering results. This company expects to be steady ship per soon.
 The Super or company shipped an O,lar carload of thelr rich gold cop pr ore last week anc will ship anoth- CT this week. They would ship car bad each day if they could get teams 10 haul it down. They are Shipping only the ore that runs high in gold and copper combined and keeping their highest grade gold ore at the mne t) be treated at their own plant when the latter is ready for work.
 Mr. Mcintosh, the gentleman who COl.emplateS the erection Of leach
 ing plant on the river just below the ButttS was here this week discussing tls project with Jour business men aud found them very favorably i'm. pressed with the enterprise. There is DO doubt about the benefits such an tstitution would bsstow on the com nluity and many would be glad to take stock in it if they had funds at their command.
 Treasurer A. F. Birker, who visited lhe Pinal Consolidated Mines this week informs the Plads that the re- pair work on the old road from the mines to the Buttes has been complet ed and that Supt.

The Weeks Mining News as Re-
 ported by the Miner

ported by the Miner
 Owing to the fact that all the bun kerS and chuteS at the mine and the loading platform at the railroad is overllowing with ore with no prospect of relief, the Samoan mine has been compelled to close down until repairs have been made to the A rig )na & Utah railroad. The Lucky Boy is in almost the same condition, and if the railroad is not soon put in operation every mine in the camp will be closed. The Samoan people have two carloads of machinery at this station, which they are unable to get, in consequence of which they are hampersd in working the mine. Other mine owners are in the same condition, and yet the pros- pect for relief is remote.
 The Gold Road company is at work on wagon road from the end of the Mohave & Milltown railroad to Gold Road. The grade has been completed as far as Ollie Oatman spring and work is being rushed to get the road over the hills as soon as possible. The growing importance of the mining in- terests on the west side of the Blue Ridge mountains will in time cause a railroad to be built from the main line from the mines and on up the valley of the Colorado. It is rumored that this will oe done before next spring and that the road may be carried to the neighborhood of Fort Mohaye.
 Three or four Chloride miners de. parted by team this week for Goldtield where they will engage in mining ,pro- viding they obtain lease on one of the producing claims. They have chlor- ided in this county for several years, and in measure have bsen successful. It is strange that miners will leave this section, when the same labor and energy that must be expended in oth. ci Nduipo u OApOhuOu Oh ooLuo Oi uuc mining claims of the mining districts of this county would yield far better returns. The veins of Goldfield are not richer than our own, nor do in- dicatiOnS point to an increase of val. uss with depth. Of course, there are stringers in the camp, just as there are here, that run into the thousands of dollars to the ton.
 Dr. J. P. Wallace came up from the Burro and Telegraph mines, at the mouth of Burro creek, last Thursday evening. He reports that the lower tunnel has cut the vein at depth of about 100 feet below the apex and 490 feet in. The ore body was crossed six feet and shows the same general grade as that found in the openings above, although no silver is present in this ore, while above that point the ore carried quite little of the values in that metal. The opening of the vein at this level gives the mine great value while it makes possible the installation of the milling and cyaniding plants on the west side of the mountain in the most accessible place. The mine will now be equipped with an up. to- date plant and work will be pushed ahead as fast as possible.
