Binqham Mining Notes.

Six new dump cars for the dinky en-
gines auxiliary to the steam shovel were
received during the past week by the
Utah Copper.
Grading is going on rapidly at the
Yampa smelter for five new McDougall
roasters. 1t will probably be some time
before the latter are finally constructed,
but work will be pushed as fast as posi-
BILE. The establishment of these roasters
will in all probability necessitate another
reverberatOry furnace.
Two side switches are in the course OF
construction for the Utah Copper COM
pany on the west side of Main canyon.
They are to be connected with the Cop
per Belt railroad and will be used for ore
cars The switches are 400 feet long and
are being built under a contract which
calls for completion by July 20.
Preparations are being made for con-
siderable change in the equipment of the
big mill at Copperton. All but four or
five of the forty-two shaking tables that
are now in use are to be torn out and re-
placed by vanners of the Johnson type.
1t has been decided that the latter do
better work and the change is to be made
for that reason. The Johnson vannerS
differ from the Frue in style of feed and
in length of stroke Smooth belt vanners
are to be used hereafter for all shines,
the corrugated belts treating the coarser
grades The mill is at present putting in
as an experiment a jig of new type.

GOLDFiELD BUDGET.
Breezy Mention of Doings in Ne.
Vada's Busting Gold Camp.
(Specia! To The Herald. )

Goldfied, New, July 6-AIl work was
suspended in Goldfield on the Fourth eX-
Cept on the paying leases, where time
was too valuable to admit of a celebra-
ton. At night fireworks were sent off
from Mallapi hill, south of the great
tented city, and this feature was the most
interesting of the day.
The news from Manhattan is more
promising. This week considerable inter
est was aroused over the assays returned
by Patrick, Elliott q Camp on ore from
the Manhattan Combination property.
There were many assays taken from re-
cent development work and the best of
them were over 500. The Combination
property has not been heretofore cOnSid-
cred among the best in the camp, but has
jumped into popularity at one bound.
The Midtown Mining company is doing
notable work on its property southeast of
the Florence. A new shaft is down forty
four-fOot vein, which is getting larger in
size and showing better in values.
The TonOpah railroad is building a
switch upon which cars may be loaded
from the various successful leases on the
Mohawk. Teams have proven to be en-
tirely inadequate to the demands of these
rich shippers. Four leasers are now in
ore and are making heavy shipments 1t
is predicted that there will be a dozen
shippers from Mohawk ground within two
months.
Meyers & Murphy have come into ore
on the Combination Fraction and they
are piling it up On the dump. The values
so far are low grade. but the work is
progressing toward the Mohawk and the
owners have great hope of being among
the winners soon. January Jones holds
a lease on a portion of this ground and
he also has some ore in his shaft. His
lease on the COrnishman is but some 800
feet away and here Jones has a spien-
did shipper.
Great interest attaches to the work on
the Booth these days and the price of the
stock has advanced rapidly on the mar
ket This property is controlled by SEN
ator Nixon and George WiEgfield and
both of these men are constantly on the
around i'm anticipation of good results
from certain work under way. Just what
may be expected it is difficult to say, as
the owners deny that so far the ore has
been found. Booth has always been fa-
vorite in camp and will, it is believed.

Not much has been said about the Ken
dali and Sandstone recently, but work
continues undated on both of the prop
critics. The Kendall is probably looking
the best of the two. Here sinking is in
progress and the shaft is now down 800
feet. The Kincaid mill, which handles the
ores from these mines. has been closed for
repairs for some week, but as soon as it

company with r. Forester, an eastern

Neyor, surveying the mineral paint de-
posits there owned by MAXWELL q MS

ing made for the purpose of making =

parties The property has been worked In
a limited way only in the past, several
tons of the deposit having been shipped
and pronounced first-class. The owners
of the deposits have developed and UNI
covered them to mucn better advantage
recently and it is believed the deal will
go through. The deposit is quite extern

ton this year is that of the Jumbo COM
pany. controlled. it is understood, by
Jack Edwards, the Wyoming sheep man,
and I. r. Ellerbeck of this city. George
Eta, who has been experimenting ope-
rationS at the Midas through a greater
portion of that property's career, has
been selected as manager of the Jumbo,
and he is now shaping up for the cam
paign which the company has decided to
carry out. The property is located south
of the Queen of Sheba and is counted as
one of the biggest gold propositions in
that region.
The report of what these companies are
intending to do this year is additional
evidence of the awakening that has hit
the Deep Creek country, and as the days
go by other propositions will be rounded
into form. By the time the Western Pa
cific has it's rails laid across the desert,
and the grading is now well along toward
completion, there will be more doing out
there than in most any portion of the
state, at least, so far as it relates to the
making Of new mines.
