PRESENT YEARS GOLD
OUTPUT IS LARGE
Conditions in United States and
Alaska Favorable for
Big Increase.

With more than half the year now gone
Il seems 10 be certain that the gold pro-
duotion of tho world for 1906 will show
considerable increase over last year,
says the Engineering and Mining Jour
nal There will be no halt Ia the largo
output of the precious metal which has
been SO prominent Il feature OF the com
mcrcial and economic movement OF the
last Ave years, The great gold-produclng
countries. with the exception OF Russia,
are all more than holding their own.
We referred last week to the large pro-
duction of the Transvaal, Australia is
at least doing as well as last year, II 1t Is
showing no marked gain. The Yukon
district In Canada has had moderate
winter, an eurly spring and better sup
ply OF water than last year. Active min
ing began there nearly month earlier
than usual. and the first returns are
promising.
In the United States conditions are all
so far favorable, The new districts Of
Nevada may be expected TO make
showing In the returns for this year. Cal
ifornla mines have better supply OF
water for mining and power than for
several years past. In nearly NIL the
Rocky Mountain States progress ls being
made on all sides. In Alaska the con-
dltlons are practically the same ns In the
Yukon and there are now districts which
we may expect to hear from.
1t is not possible to discuss now tho
results of the continued great produc-
tion of gold; but 1t Is no inconsIderable
factor in the present condition of inten-
slhcd commercial activity, which extends
over nearly all the civilized world.

FURNACE CREEK MINES.
Patsy Clark Talks Of Copper Deposits
in Death Valley,

Patrick Clark the Spokane mining mau,
in speaking of his Death Valley properties,
says in the GoldGcld Sun:
LAS to tho work on Furnace crook, tho
shaft Is now down $50 feet and the bottom
is In solid carbonate of copper We havo
discovered ono thing, and that is this: By
going down tho hill whore the largo leads
also crop, we can drive tunnel under tho
Of 1900 feet, but the entrance to tho tunnel
would havo TO be made on the opposite side
OF the hill Eventually railroad will skirt
that side OF tho mountain.
~ was little afraid tho Furnace creek
section would not be conducive to health
during tho warm season, but havo been
informed that IL is good. In two weeks
the Smith rairoad will have been fni shed
the first of the year, not later than Feb
ruary, il will roach point only twelve
miles from the property. From now on trans
portauou facilities will become easier.
Work on the Bullwhackcr is progressing
nicely considering the fact that some trouble
with tho hoisting engine had been cXpe-
rioncod. In the first place the engine got
mixed up in n railroad wreck and was dam
aged to such an extent that repairs were
necessary. IL is now running, however, and
promises good rcturns Tor the Inconvenience II
caused The shaft on tho property is $50 feet
deep and from now on more rapid headway
will be made.
''It has been recently learned that few
years ago somo industrious mon, whose iden'
tity is unknown. sunk q shaft on tho Bull
whackcr ran drift AT a point whore the
veins cross. and extracted lot OF 5000
this work they cultivated quito a dump,
which was not shipped and tho company will
do this later, for the entire lot runs nearly
5 per cent copper. In view of the fact that
this stuif was thrown away, the trospasSers
must have taken out some very good orc.
The point at which this work was dono Is
only a short distance from tho main shaft.

COPPER WILL REMAIN FIRM.
Little Fear Expressed Regarding the
Price of the Red Metal,

The metal markets have continued strong
Of late, despite increased production. In
copper. the position is excellent; there arc
no stocks Of any consequence in existence
consumption continues at tremendous ratio
and the increase OF production is not more
than normal, 80 TINT no accumulation OF tho
metal Is likely for the present Business at
New York is quiet, mainly because tho larger
consumers arc covered for tho next month
or two, and tho depressed condition prevail
ing for the moment in tho stock market has
influenced buyers who arc holding nloof
until the horizon becomes more cienr. Tho
threat OF d return OF tho copper bought last
year in China haS vanished; tho copper that
was returned from China-nnd II was not
much-has all gone into consumption; as far
as we know: there are no further stocks
available there that could bo resold in the
American or tho European markets.
Unless something wholly unforeseen should
happen, it is safe TO predict that the pros
cnt hrnness Of the copper market VIII con-
tinue during the remainder OF this yonr, at
lcast In lead also tho market continues
unusually strong. the present production and
stocks appearing to bo inadequate to meet
the enormous demand. Tho price, az is well
known is controlled by tho American Smelt-
ing and Rohning company: so that it Is sub:
iect to artificial conditions, but tho policy OF
this corporation is conservative and we do
not look for any reduction in the price, be.
cause general conditions do not warrant it

RHYoLITE, New, July 2e-outside Of
tho Bullfrog district, Greonwator appears to
claim the greater amount Of attention at this

OF Death valley at this season of tho year
is something fierce, yet dozons OF autos

FUTURE Of IDAHO
MINES IS BRIGHT
Greatness of State Reposes in
What Coming Years
Bring Forth.

The continuity Of ore bodies and their
permanence at depth is always a matter
OF moment TO any mining community
Even though there be no evidence of
exhaustion In the present generation II
is always q matter OF pride to oe able
to develop resources, the end OF which
does not appear probable for ut least sew
eral generations, On this score IL is saie
to predict that the State OF ldaho Will
yield mineral wealth to the neHt genera
tion as the result Of tho laoors OF the
present says the Mining Reporter.
In tho Coeur d'Aleno district the oc-
currenco OF the pay bodies ut great depth
hns been proved In n number OF proper
ties. In fact, the great orc shoots ot
the region do not outcrop havily, ana
the lower workings arc accordingly rlch-
er In many cases than the surface indi-
cations would have led one to believe.
AS an example OF this fact is cited tho
ore shoot Of tho STANDARD, which has boon
opened for 1900 feet, and which was In
significant in It's outcrop. In tho Ilger-
Poorman excellent ore was found on
the 2000-foot level after passing through
a rather discouraglng lean streak 200 feet
above. Similarly In developing tho Mace
shoot which had been proved continuous
for 1900 feet. when It suddenly weakened,
a few more feet of development resulted
In adding 200 feet more to the shoot.
The immediate effect of those facts is
stimulation of the industry throughout
the entire State and the district In par
tlcular. They hold out the greatest at
traction to companies that have not yet
proved their ground satisfactorily In the
surface development.
1t may be said that the greatness OF the
State lies, however. not so much In what
has already been accomplished us In tho
possibilities which tho present develop
ments prove that the future holds out TO
tho worker. There is vast amount OF
territory yet untouched that Is equally
as promising as was the Occur d'Alene
district when the locator OF the now ia
nous Bunker Hill and Sullivan was grub
staked by two men who were willing TO
risk some money on the prospects. Pres
ent developments In the State are OF the
sort that make men willing TO take q fair
mining risk by purchasing promising
prospects, or go still farther and put
men In tho field In the mere hope that
fortune may favor their effort.

IRON ORE DEPOSITS.
United States Survey Making Ready to
Look Over Pennsylvania.

An economic investigation Of tho iron ore
deposits OF eastern Pennsylvania will be
mbde this summer by Mr.. Arthur G. Spencer
gcologist OF tho United States geological sur
vey,
The iron ore industry throughout the enst-
part Of tho United Stato9 has been rather
inconspicuouS since tho middle OF the eighties,
when tho successful exploitation Of tho rich
cheaply mined and onsiy smeted oros of the
Lake Superior region began. Bcing unabls
TO compete successfully with tho producers
Of the Western ores, miners OF Eastern ores
ceased practically to develop their properties
and since 1894 only the larger OF the pre-
viously known ore deposits have boon work cd
TO meet the demands of local furnaces In
the minds Of many, however, the time is now
ripe for great expansion in iron mining
throughout the East. When that timo does
actually como, thero will undoubtedly bo
demand for information concerning tho char
aotsr Of tho Eastern ores,
reconnaissance OF certain magnetic de-
posits in York, Lebanon and Berks counties
Ponnaylvania. that w0s mado in 1905, shows
TINT those deposits have been hitherto en-
tirely misunderstood. 1t shows also the prob
ability Tint careful geological inyostiga tion
will revenl q relation between tho different
deposits leading TO q definite recognition of
their aroal distribution, and thus eventually
