OLD TAILINes DUMP SOLD.
Holderman Company Gets Mercur
Lease and Will Build Mill.

Manager Thomas Ferguson Of the
HOlderman Filter Tank company says
that the Consolidated MercUr company's
big tailings dump at Manning, dump
containing approximately 100000 tons, has
been leased, and that, just as soon as
possible a plant capable Of handling 800
tons per day will be erected and the
treatment Of the tailings begun. This
dump, according to the thorough samp-
ling that has been made Of it during
the last several months, is counted upon
to average better than 1925 per ton in
gold, and the tests made by the Holder
man process in the ten-ton testing plant
that was erected at the old Mercur mill
some eight months ago show that a close
saving can be made at modest cost per
ton.
When the company made a proposition
to the Consolidated MerCur company
nearly a year ago to either buy or lease
the dump. or make the tests, build q
mill and sell to the Consolidated Mercur
company. the HOlderman folks were told
by President John Dern to go ahead, ana
that they would be given every OppOr-
tUnity to show what they could do, and
that some satisfactory arrangement
would be made with them to handle the
dump in case it yielded to the process
they employed. The result has been as
stated. The dump will be worked on
a royalty basis that will mean as much
to the Consolidated Mercur as though
1t had treated the trailings in its old
mill, if not better, and at the same time
the HOldeman company will clean UP a

the ore are the marvel Of the camp. The
latter is very uniform and most OF the
gold assays are phenomenal from the
standpoint Of the Park city miner.

ORE FROM MEXICO.
1t Comes to United States SmeIter TO
Be Tried Out.


A few days ago mention was made Of
the fact that the United States Mining
company was seeking a chance to in
wade the Mexican field Of mining and
smelling. Il was said that the company
had a corps Of eXDertS and engineers in
rha southern republic looking into every
thing that promised to meet REQUIRE
ments- That something has been found
mat looks encouraging IS evidenced in
what has since tTanSpired. During the
present week two or thINe carloads of
copper ore from Mexico has been re-
ceiY6d at the United States companv's
smelling works here and the presuup-
ton IS that II has been forwarded for
pany's local manager, was out Of the
city yesterday, so It was impossible to
get statement from him on the sub
Ject- That the ore is here for the pur-
pose stated there is hardly a shadow Of
doubt, for 1t is not likely that anyone
would think of shipping ore from the
southern republic to smelters at this dis
lance for any other reason. This is prob
ably the first time that a shipment of
ore from Mexico ever found its way into
the confines of this state but if the
United States company is in earnest in
us determination to become a direct com
petitor Of the American company in
mexico. as z IL here, IL Is likely that
many shipments viii reach here before
the matter has been finally rounded into
shape
Following the news that the United
states company was determined to get
into Mexico came the news on Thursday
or the formation Of the big holding com
pany In Boston designed to control all
the various undertakings of the subsidi-
airy concerns in this country and else
where. Putting these different things to-
gether makes IL look certain that the
united states company is out TO share
with the best Of them in the control of
the mining and smelling business Of the
world.
