FOR REFRACTORY ORES.
Brief Description of a New Patented
Electro Chemical Process.

The SENTINEL of Aug. Is printed IN
item relating to the new patent process
for reducing low-grade ore that has
been invented by Arthur w. Burwel
aud Charles e. Baker. well-known bust
ness men and metallurgists of Cleve-
land, 0.
Postmaster O. L. Broy Of Eureka
wrote to Messrs. Baker g. Burwell for
fuller particulars, and this week re-
ceived an answer dated Aug. 10. In
reply the gentlemen give the following
description of their process:
"Ours is not a smelling process as
stated in the papers. 1t is electro
chemical-depending entirely on cleo
tricity. It is intended for refractory
ores and works equally well on sui
phides. tellurides, arsenides, etc. Ohio
rine is used to unite with all the base
metals and the metalloids, making free
milling ore from anything.
1--WE can not well cover a description
in a letter. but we can say in general
that we obtain chlorine by decomposi-
ton Of common salt eleotrolytically.
The dry chlorine then m in con-
tact with the ore, which must be fine
and dry also. A little heat is applied
to the vessel containing it (wood heat is
enough) and the sulphur chlorid that
forms is driven of az a gas, condensed,
and the sulphur saved for market.
"All the base metals also unite with
chlorine and form soluble chlorides.
When the contents of the vessel are
placed in water, the soluble ohiorides
pass into solution, are drawn of into watts.
and the copper and zinc plated out elect
rolytically the usual way.
I'm recovering the copper and other
metals from their chlorides, the chic
rine is released as the metal is and
passes back to the vessel containing the
ore to treat more ore. So that after a
start is made, chlorine from salt is
only needed to make up the loss in
handling.
"After treating and placing ore in
water to draw off copper, etc., the gang.
or mineral substance, hat remains be-
hind contains the free gold and insoluble
silver chloride. AS it is then a free
milling proposition. any well.known
method will treat it and recover the
metals. COLONIZATION is probably
cheapest, but cyaniding or amalgama-
ton will do.
"We are putting up a working plant
here that will start next week on galena
ore, and then later ON mixed lead and
zinc sulphide. When our plant is oper.
ating we have promised to give
audience to the agent of the Associated
Press, andthe mining papers will prob
ably also have a report of it. There are
no secrets. The process is patented,
and we only use well-known chemical
and electrical principles and apparatus.
"H you have water power to make
electricity, ours is the cheapest process
known"

Evidence Against Banker.
The evidence shows beyond doubt
that the fire was of an incendiary Ori-
gin. The testimony of the engineer in
charge of the building, together with
that of the former superintendent Of
the company, amounted 10 a direct
charge that Isaac y. Perry. president

Perry said that the charges against
him were raised for the purpose of in

No Effect on the War.
While the conference cannot have
any direct effect upon the Russo-Jap-
anese war, since neither side wishes
outside interference. still questions
of International law have arisen i'm

New York, Oct 27-The Democratic
Commercial Travellers association,
representing a class of men that has
been hit hard by the trusts, is doing
good work throughout the land for Par

ganization said:
Hendrix at Head.
The national committee of Demo-
cratic Commercial Travellers and Busi-
ness Men, pledged to the support of
Parker and Davis has for its chairman.
Hon. Joseph c. Hendrix, the we'll
known New York bank president and
an executive committee composed of
men with national regulations in the
various lines they represent. The work
of this committee is to reach mill oper-
ators, manufacturers and retail mer-
chants. many of whom are Independent
voters, unattached to any political or
ganiZation. to circulate among them lit
erature discussing the issues of the
campaign from a business standpoint.
The logical channels for reaching these
business men are the commercial trav-
elers, whose every day business is to
cover the country like 4 network, call
ing upon men in all lines of business.
This committee has over 5000 travel
ing men on the road who are working
enthusiastically and without pay for
Judge Parkers election and are doing
it without going out of their way, and
without conflicting with their business
duties. If Roosevelt would study the
real drummer Of this country he would
learn something that would make him
nervous.
