The White Pine Gold Mining Co., with
Offices in Salt Lake and properties in
the Egan range about twelve miles
from McGill's, is meeting with good
success in the development of its prop
erty'
Manager O. Weiser, of Salt Lake, is
now at the mine arranging for the i'm
mediate installation Of a plant for q
thorough campaign Of development.
The mine is an old one and was work
ed extensively several years ago. 1t
was then 80 miles from the railroad,
however, and nothing less than $50 ore
could be shipped. Now with the intro
duction of modern methods the property
is being made to produce at good
profit. A track is being laid up the old
tunnel and there is said to be large
quantities of $35 to $50 ore in sight.

Gold float has been found in the out
skirts of Ely. Assays show that it goes
5000 to the ton, and there are num-
ber of prospecting parties out search
ing for the ledge.
An old woodchopper on his way to
work in the hills about three miles
north of Ely, up Murry canyon, found
the first pieces of gold bearing quartz
few days ago. He put them in his
pocket and in the evening, when he re-
turned to his camp, showed them to
Paul H. D. Banedixson, prospector,
who was doing some location work in
the vicinity. Benedixson at once recog-
nised the value of the discovery, and
the next day secured the hills, finding
other pieces of the same kind of ore,
but, SO far has not found the ledge,
or at least has not made public its dis
covery.

Biz Things Are Predicted
Special correspondence
SALT LAKE CITY, Nov.

Ama2ement is expressed by mining
men here at the development of prop
critics in the Ely belt. OF course Il
great deal has been printed about the
camp, but Salt Lakers hear SO much
about mines that no particular interest
in Robinson district until quite recently.
Now Ely is the most talked of camp in
Nevada, not excepting Goldtield, which,
while it is great producer of gold, eX-
perienced miners here believe will have
passed into history when Ely is a
thriving city of 100, 900 inhabitants, with
a daily outturn of ore to the smelter5,
under construction and to be built, Of
40, 600 tons.
why" said one enthusiast at the
Alta Club, 'it is simply marvellous. In
comparison with your camp Bingham
is as white chip to stack Of yellows. :
ID. c. Jackling, of the Utah Copper
Company, who has keen eye for any
thing pertaining to copper deposits, has
just returned from an inspection Of the
Nevada Consolidated, Cumberland-Ely
and other mines at Ely.
Il never expect to see such develop
ment in a copper mine again Mr.
Jackling said. Zone is dazzled by
those twenty odd millions of tons of
ore blocked out in the Ruth and Eureka
mines of the Nevada Con-, but to the
practical miner the best thing in sight
at Ely is the Veteran mine of the Cum
berland-Ely. The ore from this mine is
of uniformly higher grade than that in
the older workings of the Nevada Con
and it looks to me as if the Cumberland
ore may be sent direct to the smelter
without intermediate concentration
Mr. Jacllling was also impressed by
the possibilities Of the Ely Consolidated
Copper Company's properties, nearby
the Ruth and Star Pointer shafts of the
Nevada Con. Next to the two big com
panies he said he believed Ely Consol-
idated Copper the best thing on the
tapis, prospectively.
There is quite boom here, by the
way, in the shares .of the Ely Consoli-
dated Copper Company. Men who are
usually well-posted in such matters
were bidding above So share for the
sto-H today. 1t is understood that
Willard Snyder, who is largely interest
ed in the company, has disposed of the
treasury stock en- bloc to a NewY ork syn
dicaue represented by Mccormick Bros,
which probably accounts for the local ac-
tivityin the shares. Mr.. Snyder left for
New York today after a conference
with CLAUS Jeldness, the eompany's S

purchasing machinery.

An inspection of the lists of town lots
sold last week by the Ely Townsite
Company demonstrates that the de-
velopments in this new section of Ely
are being followed with keen interest
by the business men of Ely. Among
the FIRST in the list of sales that cought
the eye Of a News reporter was one of
six lots purchased by Mr.. w. w. Arm

Company, of which he is the president.
The company, according to its general
manager MIR. A. G. Corbett, sold

no diminution in the number of appli-
cants for lots. The Offices of the
company in the new Telephone Building
We're crowded yesterday and Mr. Cor
bett said money was coming in freely
from investors elsewhere.
"Franhly," Mr. Corbett said, "the
results Of the first sales of townsite
property are very gratifying. Not only
the people of Ely but others who have
looked over the situation forsec the
building up here Of an important city
and they are dscounting the future

On the opposite corner from the
Graham Mercantile Co. S lots, bank

said will in the spring commence the
construction of fine banking house,
put up with white stone and brick, three
stories high.

a delirium of excitement, and told his
story, with the result that big party
of fortune seekers trailed out after him
to the scene of his discoveries.
Banigau said his assays seowed 500

by the Ely experts for the prcspector's S

that the ground is highly mineralized

From thirty to forty additional claims

away the ore but the waste as well.
This will be accomplished, it is under
stood, by having a Nevada Northern
railroad side track built at the mouth
Of the tunnel so that the ore and waste
can be hauled away as fast as it is
mined.
The engineers representing the other
coterie of capitalists have picked out
several locations for the tunnel on the
south side of the canyon but have not
yet definitely decided which will be
chosen as the spot at which the work
will actually begin.
These projects will bring mining ac-

ter, and the negotiations will be hasten

because OF the lack OF necessary funds.
