CON. MERcUR DOING WELL.
Six Hundred Tons Of Ore Per Day is
Now Being Profitabl7 Handled.

George H. Dern. general manager of
the Consolidated AIeTcuF, came in from
camp yesterday to attend to matters
requiring his attention on this end of
the line. He says the companys big
mill is now steadily handling 500 tons
OF ore per Day and that a comfortable
profit is resulting from operations. The
new ground along the strike of The old
Mercur vein which has but recently
been opened, IS giving a good account
Of itself and, taken altogether. the
outlook for the proposition has not
been brighter for many long day.
The first cleanup of the season at
the old Mercur mill, at Manning,
where the old tailings dump Is being
worked up by IeaSeHs, has just been
made. but what the months run win
show Mr.. DeTn says It is yet too early
to say In fact, this months run viii
hardly be a good guide to what the
plant is doing for the reason that the
method OF collecting the values in
boxes filed with zinc shavings, does
not permit Of as close a cleanup as is
possible by the use OF zinc dust, the
method employed at the Consolidated
Aercur's big mill. At Manning some
of the values will be in the boxes ali
the time until the final cleanup Of the
season is made, but the second
months run win tell very closely what
the plant IS accomplishing.

UP FROM THE COLORADO.
California Engineer Returns From a
Years Search For Rich Metals.

John s Wilbur, mining engineer or

tsrday morning on his way to Chicago,
where he goes to make a report TO the
syndicate in whose employ he has been
for the past eleven months or more in
vestigating the wilds of the Colorado
river region between here and the coast.
He expects to leave for headquarters
today and a few weeks hence go into
the southern country again by way of
kingmau, Ariz.
II am not at liberty to tell Of my
work in DETAIL said Mr.. Wilbur during
the Afternoon, but have no objection
IN stating that I have been in search OF
the rarer minerals and stones During
my pilgrimage I have covered about 400
miles Of the Colorado river and the
country adjacent. I reached the rail-
road at Moapa, in Nevada, and, send
ing the men who were with me in the
opposite direction, I came on here to
make as short a cut as possible to Chi
cage. where I expect to meet the men
in whose interests have Isolated my
self so long.
I have seen a great many interest
ing things during my long trip, and
have made discoveries the nature of
which I cannot speak OF. though I have
no doubt that they will result in the
opening up OF some new country re-
garding which little is known at the
present time"

Kentucky when he was lad of 16- He
secured his engineering education on
the coast after having had more or less
to do with eaTly-day mining and kin

LANDS IDAHO MINES.
George z. Edwards Secures Big PropO-
aition North of Mackey.

George T. Edwards, the we'll known
mining expert, who was formerly gen
eral superintendent Of the Consolidated
Mercur company's mines, has just re-
turned from two weeks trip to Idaho,
where he has secured a longtime lease
and bond on a property which he con-
siders 20 be about the finest milling
proposition he ever saw.
The property consists OF six claims
which are located about forty miles
north Of Maekay in a district that pre-
sents ideal tunneIing schemes of de-
Nelopment and operation, and which is
blessed with an abundance Of water
and timber. The altitude is about 5000
feet above sea level, and the climate is
such, Mr.. Edwards says, that mining
and milling can be carried on through
cut every month Of the year without
delay or Inconvenience
The ground has been sufficiently de-
Veloped," said Afr. Edwards, TO prac-
ticalIy demonstrate its worth, though
the deepest hole is only down eighty
six feet. This shaft .disclOses a very
good grade of silveT-lead ore carrying
some copper, the streak being four feet
wide. This development, however, only
serves TO show the continuity Of the
ledge and the fact the values are there.
al a point $50 feet south OF this
shaft, open cuts have been made show
ing the ledge to have a total width OF
156 feet. In alternate layers through
this vein are streaks of ore and lime.
The ore streaks run from four feet wide
up TO several times that thick and the
numerous samples taken gave me an
average OF $3.50 in silver and lead
values, with about per cent copper.
I have no doubt that much high-grade
ore viii be found as the mammoth vein
IS developed. but not counting that az
all. ran easily figure out where large
profits viii follow the mining and mill
ing OF the rock just as il comes. I ex-
pect to interest local operators with me
and get TO work on the proposition
without delay"
Mr.. Edwards also reported having
been successful in landing a gilt-edged
gold proposition. but concerning that he
said he was not at liberty TO say any
thing just yet
