Special to The Tribune
MILFORD, Jan. 30.-The famous Burn
ing Moscow. owned by Mat Cullen and

spond Splcndidly to development. The
Marble bids fair To become rival Of It's
neIghbor. the Moscow, and experts who
have examined this property are unanim-
Gus In the opinion that the Marble can
easily be made great and rich producer.
The Talisman is being actively worked
by +, u. Mckcon and very rich silver ore
Is being hoisted daily. Tho quality and
quantity Of the ore In this and the Stall
