OF
TONOPAH MINES

The Rescue, Eula, Last Thought and
Maggie May mining claims have been
consolidated and are now owned by one
company, known as the Rescue Consol-
idated Mining company of Tonopah.
To effect this purpose, the stockholders
at the annual meeting Of the Rescue
Mining company of Tonopah, increased
its capital stock, and authorized the
purchase of the Maggie May mining
claim, and the Eula and Last Thought
mining claims, for stock of the Rescue
Mining company of Tonopah. The
stockholders also authorized an amend
ment Of the articles of incorporation,
changing the name of the Rescue Min
ing company of Tonopah to the Rescue
Consolidated Mining company of Tono-
pah. The Eula and Last Thought Min
ing claims adjoin the Rescue on the
east, while the Eula joins the Last
Thought on the north. The Maggie
May mining claim adjoins the Rescue
on the south. This gives the CONSOLE
dated company four full claims of
20 acres each, embracing 5000 feet
along the mineral zone and 1900 feet
across it. This practically insures the
cutting of the Valley View vein in the
ground of the Rescue Consolidated
Mining company Also intercepting
the Belmont vein, providing the same
has the general course and strike that
is generally understood in this camp.
On Monday Frank Golden, president OF
the company, had the mine started up
and commenced to bail out the
water that had accumulated in the
shaft. The president reports today
that all of the water has been bailed
out in the past week, and that sinking
will commence Immediately. The shaft
is now down 400 feet, and will be con.
tinued to depth of 800 feet before
crosscutting commences, unless the
vein should be encountered before
depth is reached. At the time
the mine closed down, the miners work.
ing in the shaft were of the impression
that the bottom of the shaft was in
close proximity to some vein on account
of the stringers of quartz passing
through the shaft. Another shaft will
be started on the Eula ground in q
short time.
The new officers and directors of the
company are: Frank Golden, President
George A. Bartlett, Vice President
Key Pittman, Secretary; A. G. Ray.
craft, Treasurer. Other directors are
Walter ]. Harris, Richard Kirman OF
Reno and w. B. Pittman.
This is one of the most important
consultations effected in the camp, as
it insures the active development OF
mining ground that has long lain idle,
although closely situated with refer
ence to all the main veins of the camp,
being as it is almost entirely surrounded
by the property of the Jim Butler
Mining company and only 1900 feet
from the exposure of the Valley View
vein on the property of the Tonopaf
Mining company.

ABOUT TONOPAH'S MINES
PROGRESS AT
MONTANA MINE

President Charles E. Knox of the
Montana-Tonopah Company, issued the
following interesting report Wednes-
day. The report may be allowed to
speak for itself. 1t runs as follows:
Recently there have appeared severe
criticisms on the management by parties
who know absolutely nothing of the
real condition of the property and
whose only aim was to secure such ad-
vertisement as would enable them to
sell stock in their undeveloped pros
poets. In view of this, we consider
that the following statement will not be
out of place here.
'"The past year has been devoted to
development, equipment and mill tests,
all absolutely necessary to the economi-
cal and profitable mining for an ex-
tended period.
"The years development work (more
than 10, 900 feeD has exposed tonnage
of ore, both shipping and milling, which
warrants US in putting on the best
equipment that money will buy and
building mill of the most modern type.
"Since October 1905 we have had
mill experts constantly at work on the
different problem of extracting the
values from our silver sulphide ores.
Two process as have been found, by
either of which satisfactory saving
can be made
''All data and records relative to one
of these processes, representing six
months of careful study, were de-
stroyed in the San Francisco disaster
April 18th. Since that time we have
had this work duplicated and verified
by F, L. Bosaui in Denver, and have
selected the process best adapted to
| the conditions in this camp. Specifca-
tions are now being prepared and we
expect to contract for the mill within
} 80 days.
Zone year ago our equipment con
sisted of 80 foot wooden gallows frame
Gntended for prospecting only !; a 4-dril
compressor and 12x14 Webster, CamI
& Lane hoist. This limited equipment
gave your board two alternatives; either
gopher the ore bodies and hoist ship.
ping ore only, thereby providing a
period of unhealthy prosperity; or in.
stall machinery adequate to the ultimate
needs of the property, utilizing our
limited equipment in the development
of additional ore reserves.
"By chasing the latter, we have
added not less than five years to the
life of the mine, and the new equip
ment, when completed, will enable us,
not only to extract dividends but also
to continue development work ahead OF
extraction, which is as it should be.
"About December /, 1905, we con-
tracted for 60-foot steel gallows frame,
12-drill Ingersoll-Sargent compressor,
200 h. p. motor, and 300 h. p. trans.
formers to drive same, and a double
drum, double cylinder l5x18 Union hoist
all on 60 and 80 days delivery. Non,
were delivered on contract time, but
all except the hoist are in place anC
! ready for use.
''The hoist having been delayed by
two fires and one earthquake, has jus
, been completed by the Union Irol
Works company of San Frrncisco, ant
is now being loaded for shipment.
Respectfully yours,
Charles E. Knox, President.

Klampt Speaks of silver Peak.

hLhHlpI SPEAKS Oh SILVER Peak.
A. T. Klampt, who is superintendent
of the Mohawk-Alpine, one of Silver
Peaks banner properties, arrived in
Tonopah Wednesday. He reports that
pipe lines are being installed and that
preparations for the big mill are being
put through as quickly as possible. The
railroad graders are now halfway be-
tween the main line and the peak. Mr..
Klampt states that the two big COM
pressors, which We're ordered some time
ago for the Mohawk-Alpine, have
reached the mine safely and in good
working order. They will be installed
shortly, and as they furnish power be-
twen them for no less than sixteen drills.
will naturally facilitate progress.
Things are quiet right now at Silver
Peak, said Mr.. Klampt, "but the work
N all the mines is going on very steadily
shdthe future of the whole district is
! aussured. Once the pipe lines are
installed and the railroad reaches the
SSo!wn, there will be quite a boom in
oliver Peak, and think our town will
attract lot of attention.
