April Cripple Creek Output.

The Cripple Creek correspondent of
the Denver Republican in summing up
the work done in April says that the
output of the Cripple Creek district is
no longer affected by heavy storms
and conditions that in other mining
camps in Colorado would make ship
ments of ore impossible, has been thor
oughly demonstrated by the figures on
the months production.
For nearly two weeks the small ship
pers were tied up, but as all the big
producers are reached either by spurs
or switches from the main lines Of the
competing railroads, these mines were
not affected and were able to maintain
their usual heavy output. In the mean
time the smaller shippers were accu-
mulating ore. The congestion was re-
lieved during the last ten days, during
which time the daily shipments kept
the railroads busy and taxed their sup
ply OF ore cars.
The increase over March was small.
amounting to only about 100000, for
which the smelters were mainly re-
sponsible. The output for May, from
the present outlook, will top the ST.
100000 mark. The summary for April
follows:

Tonooah and GoIdfield.

Last week was the first time since
railroad communication has been es-
tablished with Tonopah that the ore
shipments of the week aggregated
more than 1000 tons, says a special
from that camp. This included ship
ment of about 250 tons from Goldfield.
At this rate and without taking into
consideration the improved shipping
facilities which are being completed,
these two bonanza camps of lower Ne
vada can be counted upon to ship 120,-
600 tons of ore that will average at
least $100 to the ton during the next
twelve months. This item alone indi-
Gates production of $12,000,0O0 for
the year, without counting upon the
milling ores which will be treated by
several plants soon to be installed for
this purpose, both at Toncpah and
Goldtield.
Far-reaching improvements, how
ever, are under way to enable the rail-
road at least to double it's present ore
shipping capacity. AS soon MS the
road running from Mound House to
Tonapah is broad-gauged shipments
are expected to average close to 5000
tons a week. 1t IL believed that this
work will be completed within sixty
days. The railroad connecting Tono-
pah to Goldfield is scheduled to be in
running order by June 1st and from
that time on better and more satis-
factory accounts are expected from
this latter camp in the way of in
creased shipments.

smeIter to Be Reopened.

A Silverton correspondent says: A
report is current here that the Ken
drick Promotion Company has about
succeeded in financing the San Juan
Smelling and Refining Company with
ample capital for the purpose of buy
ing ore with which to resume active
operations at the Kendrick-Gelder
smelling plant, located just north of
the corporate limits of the town of Sill
verton. This news will be hailed with
joy by everybody in the camp, for the
smelter not only will give employment
to large number of men, but it will
enable many small mines of the dis
trict to be worked which otherwise
could not be operated at a profit.
The smelling company also owns the
great Henrietta mine, located few
miles about Silverton, and when the
smelter is blown in the mine will be
put in operation and the product of the
mine, combined with the fluxing ores
bought of other mines, will be handled
here. The excellent condition of both
smelling plant and mine will enable
the company to begin operations on
short notice, and the resumption is
now set for June LIST.

NEWS FROM The MINES and MILLS
Development of Tonopah.

A government report that is likely
to appeal to the investing public is a
paper entitled Development at Ton
opah, Nevada, during 1904" which Mr.
j. E. Spur of the United States Geo
logical Survey has written for the an
nual bullein mo. 26O) entitled "Con-
tributions to Economic Geology, 1904"
'The general conditions for mining
and profitable production of ores" F"
says Mr.. Spur, ARE decidedly better
than they were year ago."
The greatest advance has been in
the building of railroad to Tonopah,
connecting with the Carson and Colo
rado Railroad at Rhodes, near Soda
vile. This has lessened the cost of
transportation, SO that supplies have
become cheaper and ores can be prof
itably marketed which are of lower
grade than what was regarded as
shipping" ore during the period when
a sixty-mile haul in wagons was nee
essary. The roads are inadequate,
however, for the needs Of the district.
The supply of water for the town
seems to be somewhat more abundant
than last year, though there is still
much to be desired. Part of the sup
ply still comes from the wells of the
Crystal Water Company, four miles
north of the town. while another por-
ton is derived from the Rescue shaft,
which is practically within the town
itself.
Until recently there have been only
three principal producing mines in the
Tonopah district, although number
of others have shipped small quanti-
ties of ore. These producers have
been the consolidated Mizpah and Val
ley View mines (Tonopah Mining Com
pany). the Montana Tonopah, near by.
and the Belmont Company, whose
properties are operated through the
Desert Queen shaft. Recently, how
ever, another mine-the Tonopah EX-
tension-which ranks in importance
with those above mentioned, has been
discovered and developed, and from
this new mine shipments of consider
able amounts of ore have already been
made.
The success of Tonopah brought to
the region an army of prospectors,
who have been searching the desert
for other ore deposits. The most nota-
BILE result of this prospecting is seen
in the new camp of Goldfield, which
lies about twenty-eight miles south of
Tonopah. Already this camp equals or
exceeds in population. and far exceeds
in activity the parent camp of Ton
opah.
Since Mr. Spurrs report was made
many other important strikes have
been made.

GORE CANON SUIT.
Federal Authorities Ask Injunction
Against Moffat Road.

Denver, May THE second move
In the Gore canon controversy on the
part OF representatives Of the United
States government was made yester-
day when a bill for an injunction was
filed in the Federal Court asking that
the Denver, Northwestern & Pacific
railroad be restrained from construct
Ing its line through Gore canon. The
suit is similar to the one instituted
several days ago, which asked that the
right Of way Of the road be vacated.
This one Is a little stronger. 1t de-
mands speedy action to prevent the
road from getting into the canon.
The papers were served on Charles
]. Hughes, counsel for the road, last
night. A hearing in the matter has
been set for next Thursday before
Judge Moses Hallett.
Besides the road the Colorado-Utah
Construction Company is made a de-
fendant and various officials of the
two companies are also included. The
bill Is signed by Earl Cranston. United
States district attorney, and William
H. Moody, attorney general.
It Is alleged that the government en-
gineers had it in mind to make a res
ervoir of Gore canon as early as 1901,
long before the Moffat road was organ
ized. The value of the situation as
reservoir site is set forth and 1t is al
legged that 1t is the key to the water
ing of about 100000 acres in Califor.
mia, Arizona, Utah and Colorado, $4,000
acres being in Colorado alone. A mil
lion people could be maintained on the
lands now arid which this reservoir
could irrigate.
The road has three rights of way
surveyed, 1t is claimed. one going
through Gore canon at an elevation
above the proposed dam. another
around Gore canon and third through
the canon at the level OF the river.
It is claimed that the government
would be glad to have the road built
at the elevation above the dam.

Cripple Creek Deep Mining.

Again the statement OF the govern
ment experts decrying the condition
of the district, as to the barrenness of
ore-bearing dikes below the 1,000.foot
level, has been knocked to the winds:
this time by two important develop.

mountain which will have an impor-

ing of the district.
The government men stated that the

that he must be content with the aid

Although there is little more than
