GREATNESS OF lEApviLlE.

Leadville has begun her second quarter century with brighter pros poets than she ever knew before. The past twenty-five years have been the most productive ever experienced by the mining interest of any camp in the west. The production of the Leadville mines during the first guar ter of a century of the camps exist ence was about s310,000,oOG. The pro auction of the past six months has added materially to these figures. To day the mines of the Leadville dis tict rank with the best of any mining district on earth. The production is being maintained at the steady rate established within tbe past few years. The output in tonnage has fluctua ed around the 60,000 mark, and is being continued with promise Of increase.

ANOTHER MINING DEAL.
The Attention of Mining Men Again
 Being Directed to Lone Star Dist.
Stafford Guardian

Recent successful operations in the Lone Star Mining district is again at tracing the attention of eastern min ing men to that district. The pros poets of another wealthy company be ginning operations is now reasonably assured. Besides this there has been an expert on the teaching process in vestigating in this district for some time past, and We understand that he is preparing to start up a small teacher in the near future for the treatment of silicious ores.
 About thirty days ago a bond for a deed was executed by the Graham County Mining and Smelling compa- ny to James Hamilton, a mining man of Tombstone, for thirteen claims, io- cated west of the San Juan and Rex Cobra groups. The consideration was s100,000. At the time the bond was excuted MT. Hamilton was in New York. where he had been for some time working up the deal He had succeeded in interesting sufficient cap ital to handle the proposition, provid ed the mines proved. upon investiga- tion, to be as represented. The bond was forwarded to Mir Hamilton au- tnorizing him to make the transfer. Af. ter the details of the deal had been arranged, MT. Hamilton started for Arizona, being sent here by the pee pie he represents to expert the prop critics and report to them.
 Mir Hamilton arrived in Stafford or Tuesday night, and Wednesday morn ing. in company with H. N. Chlarson, president of the company owning the property, went to the mines.

OLD DOMINION UP TO DATE.
And Shelter Will Turn Out Record Production During Final Weeks.

It is said by those who have access to the books of the Old Dominion Co, that the production of copper for the
 month of July will aggregate 1900, GOO pounds. For several weeks past all of the three furnaces of the old shelter plant have been operated to practically fVl capacity and it is pos sible that the August production will run ahead even of the total for the month of July as it is the intention of the management to make a record for the final month before the new plant goes into operation. On the present basis of production the mine is pre- duciiIg annually at the rate of 21 1,600,- 900 pounds of converted copper, or nearly three times the amount pro puced in 1903 with the same shelter plant. This leads to the question why was new smelter plant abso- lutely necessary after all? This is ans wered by the statement that the ease with which the necessary sulphur has been secured under the merger with the Phelps-Dodge people, has render ed the free operation of the plant possible There have also been no vexatious delays through breakdowns. nor has the management been ham, pere6 by the water trouble last year.
 With the new smelter in operation by September the final months of the year are expected to demons rate what the property will be able to do with its new equipment in full worh- ing order. IL is planned to start ID hN h,- tho fret of Son. tember and then gradually work the modern plant up to it's full capacity, continuing the old furnaces up to the time the new ones are considered
 found.' This. it is expected, will be sometime towards the end of Oc- ober. although in the case of new machinery it is not always safe 10 set an exact date on matter of this kind For the first six months of the current calendar year the mine show ed an operating net of about s200000 The last half should benearer s300,- 900, or, say, in round figures. s500000 for the twelve months. Underground development and operating cost are to be dedneted from earnings but a sur plus after operations is expected 1o tAPNN'tO as oSdALSN d Qt4ANll SuO Il for 1903. IL is stated the cost os producing copper will show material reduction by the first of the new year. Last year il was 11.05 cents the pound, as compared with 1205 cents obtained for the copper. The present cost IS said to be well below 10 cents a pound and it is figured tha- with the new plant running smoothly and to full capacity, say on the basis of 2,000,000 pounds of copper month ly,and with fully 1-2 per cent more copper saved through conversion, a cost of between and cents will be conservative estimate
 With regard to the litigation there have been no new developments since the Pierce suit was decided in favor of the company several weeks ago Those who were behind that suit and who have protested against the union of the Old Dominion with the United Globe mines are likely to appeal from the decision, but up to the present time they have taken no action.-Financial News.
