MILL FOR MON
TANA-TONOPAH

E. L. Bosqui, the mill expert who
built the Combination mill at Goldfield,
has been in Tonopah this week consult
ing with Messrs. Knox and Kerr, of
the Montana-Tonopah, and it has been
decided to erect 40-stamp mill on the
Montana -Tonopah property. Water
will be obtained from the Tonopah
Mining company and the mill will be
practically similar to the Buffers mill
at Virginia City, both in concentration
of ore as well as in cyaniding of tail
ings. Experiments have been made
both in San Francisco and Denver by
Messrs. Field and Bosqui, in which the
extraction has been satisfactory by
this method. Mr.. Kerr says that de-
velopment work will be vigorously
pushed in order to get the slopes ready
for supplying the mill with ore. 1t is
hoped to have the mill in operation
within four months.

GYPSY QUEEN
SINKING SHAFT

Work is now going ahead steadily on
the property of the Gypsy Queen Con-
solidated Mining company. Work on
the shaft was resumed on July 23d and
has been continued without interruption
ever since. Considering that only two
shifts of men are being worked and
that all drilling is done by hand, capital
progress has been made, the shaft hav-
ing been sunk l20 feet further since
the resumption of operations. The cap
ping in this vicinity is only very thin
one, and after 100 feet of sinking
through Oddie rhyolite and 60 feet of
sinking through latter andisite, lode
porphyry of very promising nature
was struck. The shaft is now down
260 feet and it is the intention of the
management to sink to the 500-foot
level and then crosscut to the north.
Supt. A. P. Kanters is optimistic as to
the future Of the property and his con-
fidence is shared to the full by Arthur
Crocker and John Salberry of the Tono-
pah Lumber company, who are the
leading spirits in the company Con-
sidering the fact that the Gypsy Queen
property adjoins the North Star and
the Montana-Tonopah this enthusiasm
seems justified. Some trouble was ex-
perienced at first with bad air, but the
installation of strong blower operated
by electricity has removed the difficulty
The so h. p. electric hoist is working
nicely and steady rate of progress
(averaging four feet per day. is being
maintained. Though the management
does not hope to strike any ledge until
prosecuting has been begun, it is quite
possible that ledge may be encoun.

porphyry which is now being penetrated

ono More Hoist for Tonopah.

A hosting plant is to be erected on
the property of the Pensylvania-Tono-
pah Goldfeld mining company, west of
town. This property adjoins the Ohio
Tonopah Extension. This will extend
the working area of Tonopah and, in
the event of strike being made, will
add greatly to the mineral-producing
area. Wednesday morning two of the
heavy stockholders of the Pennsylvania
company departed for their home at
Philadelphia. They are j. F. Gaeh-
ring and DR.. ]. P. Mayer. They ex-
pressed boundless confidence in the pos
sibilities of their mining property and
will back their opinion by making inn
mediate preparations for the installa-
tion Of hoisting plant in the near
future.

Corkir win Manage West End

Work is still being prosecuted as
steadily as ever in the West End.
Stopping, drifting and crosscutting is
going on in the 40O-foot level and a
good tonnage of ore is being hoisted
weekly. Once the ore-bins on the
Mcnamara are ready, the West End
ore will be hoisted through the Mac
Namara shaft, stored in the ore-bins
and shipped directly onto the cars. The
ore-bins are expected to be ready by
the second week in September. Super
intendent Fred Corkill of the Mac
Namara, will in future have charge
of the West End as we'll, as so much of
Mark B. Kerr's time will be taken up
by his duties at the Montana-Tonopah
that he will only be able to act as con-
sulting engineer for the West End.

CalifOrnia-TonoDah.

Another shift has been put on this
week at the California-Tonopah, and
development work will now be pushed
more rapidly. The directors of the
company have had reason to feel much
encouraged lately owing to the cutting
of stringers of quartz carrying good
values, in a big belt of lode porphyry,
about $50 feet south of the shaft on the
45O-foot level. The territory, which is
unprospected as yet, is of great extent
and for the present all work done in
the mine will be confined to it. The
management of the mine are confident
as to its future.

DUVALL'S VIEWS
OF GREENWATER
TOnOpah Engineer Shows Faith in
the New District by Buying
Bimetallic Group

Marius Duvall, manager of the Stan
dard mining company, returned this
week from a trip to the Greenwater
country. While there he purchased the
Bimetallic group of claims from the
original locators, Messrs. Mcbride and
Lorenz, for price running well into
five figures. This group lies on the
west side of the copper belt, which runs
from north to south, and is, so far as
can be ascertained at present, at least
FIVE miles wide. The group adjoins the
property owned by Patsy Clark, who
has been at work for year and now
has a gasoline hoist going and we'll
timbered, double-compartment shaft
down 200 feet from which he is daily
extracting rich ore.
According to Mr.. Duvall, the country
rock has been thrown on edge by some
seismic upheaval in the by-gone ages.
1t consists of granite, porphyry and
lime in alternate strata, running north
and south. Mr.. Duvall is of the opinion
that the highest values viii probably be
found between the lime and the por-
phyry. 'It is no country for poor
man, said Mr.. Duvall to representa-
tive of the BONANZA. "a poor mans
only chance there is to locate some good
property, sell part of it, and with the
proceeds of the sale develop the rest of
the ground Exorbitant prices are
charged for food, and water costs $3.50
a barrel. However, that state of things
will soon be remedied, as far as water
is concerned at least. A party have
just gone in with full apparatus for
boring operations, and expect they
ought to strike water anywhere down
on the fat in less than 200 feet. In
some places they will probably get it
much sooner"
Mr.. Duvall considers that a great
deal of Los Angeles capital will flow
into the new district, as, owing to the
fact that there is spur from the Clark
line to Johnnie, only 80 miles from
Greenwater, it will be possible to board
the train at Los Angeles at night and,
with the help of an auto arrive in
Greenwater at noon the next day.
There will be no chance of congestion
in goods consigned to Greenwater, for,
if there is an overflow at Johnnie,
freight can be sent via Beatty, as the
railroad will be in there by September
l. Beatty is 80 miles from Greenwater,
and can easily be reached from there
in an auto inside Of six hours.
Mr.. Duvall states that there are
numerous ledges on his ground, not one
of them under feet in width. The
strongest are three parallel ledges thai
run north and south and go in places al
high as 20 per cent copper. He is a
present engaged in incorporating ;
company with the help of a number oi
San Francisco capitalists, and states
there will be camp on his ground in {
week. Mr.. Duvall will be genera
manager for the new company.

SINKING ON The
TONOPAH-HOME

Work is going on steadily on the
Tonopah-Home, all trouble with water
being at an end Some considerable
difficulty was caused last week by the
influx of water and an extra shift had
to be put on, but the water has new
been cased out and there is no further
obstacle to the sinking of shaft. The
shaft is now down about 450 feet and
is in the lode porphyry, which was en-
countered at the 425-foot level. 1t is
the intention of the management to
sink for some distance further and then
crosscut. The shaft is double COM
partment and the so h. p. steam hoist,
which is capable of hosting from a
depth of 1850 feet, is working satisfac-
torily. The management of the COM
pany is very optimistic, and they have
every reason to be, for the Tonopah-
Home has a very favorable location,
being bounded on the east by the Mon
tana-Tonopah, on the west by the Mid
way Extension, on the north by the
Tonopah Aspen and on the south by the
Golden Anchor and the Midway.

M'KANE LEDGE
IS SOUGHT FOR

At the McKane mine on the slope
about half a mile below the Tonopah
Extension, the shaft is now down more
than HOO feet and we'll below the cap
ping and into the lode porphyry. Cross
cuts are being run to the north and
south and it is hoped that the extension
of the big ledge will be cut in the south
working, though it will take some time
to reach the point where the ledge is sup
posed to lie. The Gaping that covers
the porphyry on the slope below town,
has proved to be much deeper than was
at first thought. When work on the
shaft was started, line was laid off
between the big mine on Mount Oddie
and the Extension and on the extension
of this line the shaft was sunk. 1t was
hoped that the ledge would be encoun-
tered at no great depth, but such was
not the case. 1t has been found that
the ledge dips to the south at an angle
of 45 degrees and it will be necessary
for the crosscut to be driven for almost
HOO feet.
Acting under the advice of Manager
Kerchen of the Extension, the work on
the shaft on the Red Rock, which adj
joins the McKane, was discontinued
and the hoist moved to the McKane.
The Red Rock shaft was down below
the Gaping and vein found, but it
was not far enough down to allow work.
ing backs. 1t is the purpose of the
company to put men to work cross
cutting from the McKane shaft on the
north to catch the vein again as the
latter shaft is considerably deeper than
the Red Rock.
The expense of working the hoist
and general shaft operations will be
borne equally by both companies. Mr.,
Kerchen said Monday morning that the
Red Rock people had some two or three
hundred feet of dead work to do and he
did not expect to catch the ledge in th'
McKane for two months or more.

A l0-drill compressor is being in
stalled on the Midway and will be ready
for work in about two weeks. Once it
is in working order, Burleigh and
Ingersoll-Sargeant drills will be used
and the work will go forward far more
quickly, as at present all drilling is
done by hand. Superintendent R. w.
Condor states that the shaft is now
down S55 feet on a ledge that varies
from three to eight feet in width, and
that erosscuts are now being run north
and south. Shipments for last week
amounted to 100 tons.

MIzPAH STILL
FLOURISHTNG

Supt. R. C. Turner of the Tonopah
Mining company denies the report that
new machinery is to be installed in the
Red Plume shaft with view to re-
commencing operations there on Oct. /.
In an interview accorded by him to a
Bonanza representative Friday he
stated that the Red Plume was now
connected by drift with the Mizpah
shaft, and that on this account the
management had come to the conclu-
sion that it would be more economical
to desist from all hoisting operations at
the Red Plume and hoist the Red Plume
ore through the Mizpah shaft.
This shaft is now down 900 feet on a
ledge that averages from to 10 feet
and development work is being done on
the 200, 300, 400, 500 and 6OO-foot levels.
A new mess-house is being built to ac-
commodate the company's employees
at the Mizpah. The grading has been
finished and the structure will be COM
pleted inside of two weeks.
The Tonopah Mining company's Sill
yer Top shaft is now down 900 feet, but
no work is being done now below the
500-foot level. On the 200, 400 and 500
foot levels drifting, stoping and cross
cutting is going on steadily and an
enormous body of ore has been revealed.
The Tonopah Mining company's ore
shipments last week came to the huge
total of 1900 tons.

tain is one of the best camps in the
State of Nevada and certainly has a
very bright future. The many mines
are looking well and the leasers are
taking out and shipping rich ore. A
mill is being erected by the Round
Mountain Mining Company on its prop
critics on Shoshone Creek. Two other
mills have been ordered-one for the
Fairview and the other for the Sphinx.
The one for the Fairview arrived at
Austin Sunday last, word to that effect
having been received by phone, and it
is expected that the mill will be landed
on the ground within the next few days.
This will be the first mill in operation

having evidently been taken from the
Round Mountain Nugget, which has

Belmont Looking Good.

The shaft is now down 100 on the
Belmont and development work of all
sorts is going on steadily. Drifts are
being run on several levels and the ore
is being stopped and taken out as fast as
possible. The Belmont promises to de
velop into one of the big mines of the

shippers. Superintendent Blackburn
has great faith in the property and
believes that the values will remain
steady no matter how deep the work

of Buckskin. There are three good
copper mines in the Buckskin district
the Douglas, the Bluestone and the
