TALK ABOUT MANHATTAN.
w. Ballantyne Enthusiastic Over
That Section of Nevada.

w. Ballantyne of Manhattan, New, is
a guest at the Wilson hotel, having ar
rived In the city Thursday morning. Mr.
Rallantyne is prominent in the mining
Industry Of that region and q member OF
the Manhattan stock exchange. His de-
scription of that auriferous camp was ed
lfyinR and entertaining. Geographically
speaking. Manhattan Is situated about
sixty miles northeast OF Goldneld In
area, the gold-bearing zone is six miles
in length by about three and a half in
width In general the orc-bearing area
is overlaid with covering OF shist shale
and other substances The gold is con-
ta3ned In rhyolite or senite, which is
portion OF the district.
The ore runs from as low as So In places
on the surface to $500 TO the ton ut depth
Speaking of development thus far made,
Mr. Ballantyne says that the deepest
shaft in the district is les feet. ali in
solid ore-bearing rock, which increases in
richness as depth Is attained, n fact
bodies go down to the deep. and cs-
tabliSheS beyond question tho limitless
magnitude of the ore-bearing district.
From careful analysis of the ore
tho surface down to the bottom Of the
deepest shaft by competent experts II
has beer ascertalned that Manhattan's
ore output Will average S35 to the ton.
The season of excitement and specu-
lation consequent upon the many rich
finds a few months ago Is in a measure
past, and the work OF development Is now
being inaugurated and going on in earn
est Six hoists are already in operation
and fifteen others are In process of erec-
ton. There are over 100 miners at work
which OF Itself speaks pretty we'll for
the merits Of q camp only few months
old.
The population of Manhattan three
months ago was estimated at 500 L
now contains what may be reckoned a
permanent population OF from 1000 to
$500. The majority Of those that have
left Manhattan were composed of pros
pectors. spectators. grafters and the
foaters who, invariably, rush in myr1ada
to every new gold excitement They have
gone to try their luck in the other new
gold camps which have recently sprung
up In that region of the State
The season bids fair to be a busy one
In the erection of stamp mills The Man
haitian Gold company proposes building a
mill OF 100 stamps and several others OF
4 lesser number OF stamps are In con-
templation of erection The ore Is free
milling proposition and as there Is ample
water at hand for milling and mining
purposes the Manhattans feel confident
that theirs Is the richest surest and
most extensive gold district in the State
and that future DEVELOPMENTS Will dem
onstrate that this confidence Is In no
wise misplaced
