capital and ne took energetic measures 20 hasten
its building. Thousands OF peasants were or

At the Palace Square early this morning a

appearance of a military encampment. Several
companies of the Pavovsky and Preobrajensky

sitting around camphres or stamping on the
snow TO keep warm. Beyond the infantry stood
squadrons of the Chevslier Guards and the
Horse Guards. without their lances, cuirasses or

BINFORD'S CAMP.

Z. M. Binford will leave the first of
the week for his new camp, located
some sixty miles south of Goldfeld in
the Grapevine range. He is not afraid
of the heat or the discomforts of camp
ing ON the desert in this hot weather.
Evidently he has found something good
but will not confirm the stories which
are current on the streets of having
opened up a wide body of high grade
gold ore.
Binford is an old p%rospector who has
tramped through the Rocky mountain
country for years, and in nearly every
camp he has been in he has managed
to find some place where pay rock ex-
listed. He is associated with a number
of Goldfeld mining men,

THE FINANCIERs COMPANY.

This is one of the corporations that
is mining on the desert and making a
determined effort to open up a shipper
and with more than an even chance of
succeeding. The company owns a
large acreage in the Goldfeld district
and is working it. Occasionally a good
assay is secured but ore in paying guam
titles has not yet been uncovered. An
examination on the company holdings
was recently made by a thoroughly
competent mining engineer and he Sc
cured assays from different veins that
showed pay ore. In his report to the
directors he said that in his opinion
it was a good milling proposition right
now With the advent of a railway it
is liable to urn out to be a good smell
ting proposition, if the railway ofic-
ial's promises are to be relied upon
in regard to transportation charges.

such failure, the original locator has

SILVER BOW COUNTRY.

A number of prospectors of this new
camp, located sixty-five miles east and
a little north of Goldfield, have been in
town during the week and all report
that there is a great deal of work go
ing on there. The first shipment will
be sent out from the Catlin mine next
week and will consist of twenty tons,
to be marketed at Tonopah. From the
assays obtained, it will run better than
800 in silver and about $40 in gold.
John B. Griffith left this week for
Silver Bow for the purpose of doing
the assessment work on a group OF
jams that were recently staked by
Jack Bowen. The assays obtained by
Bowen went as high as ST..

THE PALMETTO DISTRICT.

Within the next year, if all signs do
not fail, this old camp in the southwest
end of the county will have at least
half a dozen shippers. New finds are
being made right along all over the
camp and the prospector who cannot
show a specimen of ore showing free
gold, or an assay certificate that GER
titles that he has pay rock somewhere
on the ground he is working, is a rari-
ty. And these assays run from $25 to
as high as $4,000 in gold and silver. In
years past the Palmetto stamp mill was
kept busy and the ore that paid to han
die was shipped to it from a number of
shallow workings in the immediate
neighborhood and only the gold values
were saved by amalgamation. The pio-
neers of those days were only looking
for the yellow stuff. Judging from the
assays that are now being secured,
there is more silver than gold values
in the rock.
j. s.. Corrigan, who secured a lumber
of samples of high grade from ms
locations last week, had 800 pounds of
the ore sent to him and is now making
a thorough test of the ore here. In the
event of it's running anything like the
samples tested last week, Mr.. Corrigan
and his associates will proceed to thor
oughly develop their promising pros
poets.
There is talk of starting up the old
stamp mill at Palmetto, so that mining
men can have their ores tested without
going to the expense of shipping to
Goldfeld.
A Colorado Springs company, which
has located and purchased a large acre
age in different parts of the camp, will
in all probability erect a new mill IN
which cyaniding, concentration and
arnalgamation will be used. The many
tests on their ore which have been
made here and in Colorado have been
very satisfactory, but for reasons best
known to themselves they are not look
ing for publicity.

BONNIE CLAIRE.

Willis George Emerson, accompanied
by several friends, arrived in Goldfeld
on Wednesday last, and left for the
Bonnie Claire mine, forty miles south,
the same evening. They expect to be
gone about a week. A thorough exam
nation of the property will be made.
Before leaving Mr.. Emerson said:
81 believe we, have one of the. big
gest mines in the entire state, and since
myself and associates have purchased
it, we have been devoting all our time
and money to opening up the ore bodies
at the different levels to a depth of
over 600 feet below the surface. In
a wiuze which has been sunk from the
lower tunnel 200 feet, a crosscut has
been driven through nearly 30 feet of
ore, and ore assays would indicate a
value of better than 5000 a ton. 1t is
our intention to put up a modern stamp
cyanide plant at an estimated cost of
100000. This will be put on the east
side of the mountain, some three miles
from tho mine, where water has been
developed in a well which has recently
been sunk. If the supply is not sufi-
cient we will put in a pump at Thorp's
wells and pump water to the mill, a
distance of from four to five miles.
We will have to raise this water about
800 feet, but that is an easy engineer
ing problem. AS you know, the Golden
Age mine of southern California, and
mill, is being supplied with water from
the Colorado river and raised a dis
lance of 5000 feet, and pumped a dis
lance of sixteen miles.
