MacVichie is Promoted.

me visit of +. A. HeinZe and other
big operators is rapidly drawing TO an
end and. by tomorrow night, it is eX-
pected that all will have taken their
departure Yesterday and today are
being occupied by Mr.. Heinze, Z. L.
White, Alfred Frank, Z. II. Wilson
and Captain Duncan MacVichie in a
thorough inspection of the Eagle &
Blue Bell properties at Tintic. This
concluded with a possible stop at the
Bingham smelters on the way back
from camp will ii is understood. coz
clude the business that has held the
party here for more than a week.
Friday night the directors of the

ram and Duncan MacVichie particle
pased. the latter was relieved as gen
eral manager of the company and ele-
waited to the managing dictatorship
Harry l.. Charles was formally in
stalled as manager of the cOmpanyS
Smelters and other works, and the sum
of $500, 900 was appropriated with which
TO make changes in the Bingham
smelter previously agreed upon and
which include the addition of lead fur
naces TO the plant.
Accompanied by II. l. Wilson and
w. Nice White, Manager Harry l..
Charles pulled out for Butte on We'd
nesday's midnight train and a few
days later ne will return with Mrs.
Charles to take up his residence here
and fill the duties of mis- position. That
he would be placed where he is today
was told by The Herald on the first
of the present month, when he came
down to get the work of making
changes at the Bingham smelter un-
DER way.
That Captain MacVichie would Sc
cure his release from the detailed du-
ties of general manager of the Bing-
ham Consolidated properties was stat
ed in this department month ago,
That he is entitled to the promotion
he has received all will agree, and
that he will play an important part.
Lot only in the future operations of
the Bingham company, but in all the
propositions with which Mr.. HeinZe
and A. ]. Coram are identified, Is GER
tain. While no announcement has
been made on the subject, the pre-
sumption is that H. H Green. the
efficient assistant manager of the
Bingham company, will be retained in
his present position.
Since Mr.. Heinze came TO town ac-
Cording to some of the reports that
have been printed. he has been busily
engaged in exporting and buying Bling
ham and Stockton properties. If any
deals have been contaminated or any
properties bonded by him, there is
nothing in the records TO show IT. II
is not doubted however, that he and
his associates think well of Utah, and
the opinion IS general among his
friends that he will become an even
greater factor i'm Utah mining and
smelling than he is today, and that.
possibly du~ing the present year.

DAISY STRIKE is RICH.
Four-foot Ledge Carries Three Feet
of Sensational Rock.

The new strike recently made by Detch
& Brewer in the sixty-toot level of their
lease on the Daisy property at Goldfleid
is now reliably confirmed Last week a
party of prominent mining engineers were
allowed 10 inspect the lower workings.
Entering the shaft, they climbed down to
the sixty-foot level, and from there passed
through croSScut TO the north for a
distance of $50 feet. The ledge was care
fully examined and was found to meas
ure four feet in width, with an extremely
rich pay shoot three feet wide, which Is
said TO assay over 5000 to the ton. In
this shoot of ore the free gold was plain
ly visible. All the ore is being screened
and sacked by candle light under ground.
Passing farther to the north in the same
drift, they were shown the underground
orehouse where the treasures of this
mine are being stored for satekeeping.
1t is estimated by the superintendent, j..
I'll Blanchard, that fully $4,000 worth of
gold is now stored and sacked in the mine
awaiting shipment This amount of ore
will make about two solid carloads, and
only represents a meager portion of the
vast fortunes available from the present
DEVELOPMENT The leGsers are now drift
ing on the vein, the entire face of the
drift being in solid ore, and every shoot
means added riches to the owners. A fiji
teen horsepower hoist is now on the
ground, and will De placed in position in
a few days.

Mines and Mining Stocks
Financial and Commercial

Mr.. Schrott was exhibiting a big lot of
samples of the ore from this property.
which is known as the Lexington group
yesterday, and nothing from the Nevada
side of line shown here in a long time.
excepting ores from the Nevada Hills
property, has caused as much favorable
comment. The ledge is large one, run
ming all the way from six to thirty feet
on the surface and the ore is full Of
chlorides and bromides. Specimen pieces
of the rock have given assays running
over 1000 ounces in silver, per cent cop
per and some gold, and Mr.. Schrott esti-
mates that the ore at the surface, taken
as il comes, is worth from $50 to 500 a
ton One shoot has been stripped for
distance of 80 feet along the outcrop
while in the other end of the property ore
just as good has been uncovered. There
are thirteen claims in the group, and MIR.
SchrOtt declares if the property has not
the making of a bonanza mine, then he
has been wasting his time in learning
what ore it, all his life.
On Mount Washington about three
miles above where the Lexington is To-
Gated, Mr.. Schrott states that f. {. Will
liams, an old Leadville miner, has prop
erty that seems to have in il the making
of a tremendously rich lead-silver mine.
The ledge has been crOSS-cut for ninety
feet and the limits Of the vein have not
yet been reached. Some of the streaks
ore encountered will run away up in lead
and from 200 to, 400 ounces in silver, while
the average should be a good one.
From these properties to Newhouse, in
Beaver county, the nearest shipping point.
is about sixty miles, and the roads are
good. The district is abundantly sup
piled with water and timber. The Lodges
occur between lime and granite and eV-
erythng indicates permanently
