MINING Notes.

Two cars Of ore from Bingham, two
from Tintic and one from Nevada. were
reported at the Pioneer sampler yester-
day.
Nine carloads Of ore from Tintic, two
from Bingham and three from Nevada
were released from the Taylor & Brun-
ton sampler yesterday morning.
Henry NJ. Atkinson, general manager
OF the New England company's Bingham
mines and mill, was in the city yeSJer-
day on company business. incidentally
he made settlement for a couple of car
loads Of high grade concentrates.
Developments on the 1,500-foot Level Of
the Daly-Judge are reported to be en-
tirely out of the ordinary, and Secretary
George W. Lambourne, who, in the alb
sence of General Manager John J.. DAILY,
is looking after the company's affairs
acknowledges that the level mentioned
is looking fine, the workings being all
in ore.
After talking with the foreman at the
mine yesterday John H. Keetley, general
superintendent of the Silver King Con-
solidated, stated that the quartz and
ledge matter then coming from the bot
tom Of the shaft was highly tmpregnated
with copper and iron, but the material
was not ore. It is improving all the time
Mr.. Keetley says, but reports to the eff
feet that a big strike has been made
are premature. The point in the fissure
through which the water was running
off has been passed through and the
sinkers are again handling an incense

UNITED STATES SMELLING.
New Company Is Starting Off Better
Than American Company Did.

The fact that Major Henry L. Higgin-
son Of Lee, Higginson & Co., is a direc-
tor of the American Smelling & Refining
company, and J. ]. StorrOW of the same
firm is q director of the United States
Smelling, Refining & Mining company.
has led to the belief in some quarters that
the reported antagonism between the two
companies is more fanciful than real
There is, however. not the slightest rela-
tionShip between the two companies.
The new United States company has
been formed on the same lines as the
American company, its purposes being
identical. The success Of the American
company since its organization on April
4, 1899, has been remarkable and believ-
ers of the United States Mining project
are confident that similar success viii
attend the present venture.
The American Smelling & Refining
company has 800, 1900 capital equally di-
Vided between z per cent cumulative pre-
ferred stock and conn on stock now re-
ceiving Z per cent dividends, the par Of
which is 500. When the shares of the
American Smelling & Refining company
were first issued they sold at so for the
preferred while the common sold at low
at S41s. The new shares of the United
States Smelling company are now SELL
ing at AZ for the preferred, par $50, or 81
on a 500 par equivalent, while the com
mon is selling at IS, par $50, or $50 on a
par equivalent Of 500.

UTAH COPPER
ANNUAL HELD
Reports Submitted Do Not Go Into
Great Detail Concerning
Operations.
GRAND CENTRAL GOES DEEP
BUTTE TRoTs OUT ANOTHER
SENSATIONAL FLoTATION.

At the first regular annual meeting
of the Utah Copper company. in Jersey
City yesterday, reports covering the
operations Of the company for the is
cal year ending June 80 last were read.
Being in the nature of a. preliminary
year in the affairs of the company,
neither the financial statement nor the
review Of operations which the report
contains are as complete and extensive
as they probably would have been I'M
der different conditions. The financial
statement shows that receipts from
the operations of the company's mill
amounted 10 $198. 1885 and that, after
deducting $5e, $50 interest on bonds and
license tax account, the income to be
applied to net surplus account was
SAP, 1875.
In reviewing conditions at the mine
and in dealing with what has been
done at the cOmpany's present milling
plant, considerable Of the information
is on matters generally understood by
the public. 1t shows that the average
assay value Of 5000 samples of ore
taken from the mine was 1.9S per cent
copper, .016 ounces gold and .15 ounces
silver. AS the mill has been operated
largely as an experimental plant, the
extraction Of values is not made Of
record IN the report. Oh IIllS Phase OF
the business the report says:
TT viii be remembered that the mill
in the first instance was erected and
has been used largely as an expert
mental plant for the purpose Of deter
mining the most economical and feas-
ible plan to be followed in the larger
operations of the company, which are
now under full progress.
THE various and extensive ex-
periments necessarily interfered to a
considerable extent with the continu-
GUS operation Of the milling plant, and
therefore reduced the actual number
of tons treated considerably below the
maximum capacity Of the plant but
all of these experiments and the re-
sulting expenditures have been made.
as before stated, with the idea of df-
recting the company in the construc-
ton of its new plant and, from the
results already obtained from the prac-
ttcal operation Of the cOmpany's pres
ent MILL we are justified in stating that
the first unit OF 5000 tons per day of
the new mill We will be able to produce
copper at sc per pound"
At the meeting held yesterday the
board Of directors would likely be
changed but little. if any. as the reor-
ganizatiOn of the official household
came a few weeks ago, when the con-
troll OF the proposition passed into the
hands of the Guggenheirns.

STRIKE NEAR POCATELLo.
Lucky Boy Tunnel of Portneuf Com
pany Breaks Into Copper Ore.

The management Of the Portneuf Con-
scldated Mining company is exulting
over z strike that was made in its prop
erty. in the mouth of Portneuf canyon,
a few miles south of Pocatello, on Sat
urday last Superintendent George
BrCugh appeared in town on Monday with
samples of rich copper ore of the bornite
variety Describing the strike, Tuesday
Advance says:
THE strike was made IN the Lucky
Boy tunnel. which is only 40 feet from
the railway tracks of the Oregon Short
Line railroad at the mouth of Portneuf
canyon just south Of the city. The tun-
mel is now in 165 feet, with a depth from
the surface Of about 125 feet where the
strike was made. The vein tapped is
fully two and one-half feet wide, and
carries in it eighteen inches of the rich
ore, a sample of which was brought in.
The ore resembles very much the ore
flom the Moonlight property north Of
the city.
There are now four men at work on
the tunnel where the strike was made
and the work will be pushed continuously
until the property is fully developed. Mr.
Jacobs left yesterday for Chicago and
New York feeling wonderfully elated over
the rich ore that has been found in his
properties"

BOSTON SAYS NO HITCH.
Claims Boston Con.-Utah Copper
Combine Is Moving Smoothly.

There has been no hitch in the plans
for a consolidation Of the Boston Con-
solidated, Utah Copper and Cactus COM
parties, says the Boston News Bureau
As a result OF conferences lasting over
a week, it was agreed between Mr..
NeWhOuse and associates in the Boston
and Cactus companies, and the Guggen-
helms for the Utah Copper company, to
combine these properties on a basis Of
three shares Of Boston Consolidated for
one share Of stock in the new company,
par value 800; two and one-half shares
Of Utah stock for one share in the new
company, and ten shares Of Cactus stock
for one share in the new company, all
subject to an examination of the vari-
Gus properties. This examination is now
being conducted by the Guggenheim eX-
perts.
Some Of the large western holders of
Utah stock, however, are antagonistic
to Mr.. Newhouse, and are strongly op-
posing this consolidation on the aboVe
terms It is understood that they claim
that actual stock control does not lie
with the American Smelling & Refining
people
The trade. however, has been concluded
between Mr.. NeWhouse and the Guggen-
helms and will be carried out, if the ex-
animation Of the various properties CO.
iEcideS with the reports which have
been submitted, which formed the basis

GRAND CENTRAL GOING DEEPER
Report Of Merger of It and Other
Tintic Mines Denied.

Superintendent Pat Dcnnely of the
Grand Central cOmpany's properties.
was in the city yesterday for the first
lime in several weeks. He stated dur
ing the afternoon that the mine was
looking better than il had done in a
long time and he had no doubt of
what it was going to do from now on.
While the lowest levels are opening up
as prollhcly as the management could
have wished for, he states that the task
of going still deeper viii soon be COM
menced.
Instead Of sinking the main shaft at
once. II is the intention TO install a
heavy donkey engine on the lowest
level ana then sink 500 or 400 feet right
in the most productive portion of the
mine In fact, he has already started
a Wine which is down sixty feet and
the installation of the new machinery
will be hurried in order that this work
may not be delayed. By adopting this
plan of development, Mr.. DonneIly
says, the production Of the mine will
not be interfered with, at any rate not
until the main shaft is continued down
when the mine has been proven I'D to
the additional depth mentioned. And
even then 1t viii be possible to mine
quite steadily from the levels already
established as the shaft has a large
hosting capacity.
Mr.. Donnelly says the entire camp
of Tintic is looking up and a lively
years production will result from the
large amount Of development and dead
work that has been done in the mines
during the last year or two. The Beck
Tunnel property. he declares, is al
ready a mine, and he looks to see it
surprise the natives in the amount and
value of the ore that it will produce
during the present year.
A report came in from Tintic last
night that q consolidation of the Grand
Central. Victoria and Mammoth was
on the tapis, but when the matter was
mentioned TO Director William Hat
field of the Grand Central, he made a
most positive statement to the effect
that there was absolutely nothing in
the report.
