property by the first of the year.
The new mill of the Cramer-
Morse Company has been shut
down to make some needed alter
atoms somewhere. The mill is
not cleaning the dirt, from three
to five tons going into the sludge
pond each shift it runs. Super
intendent Wright shut the mill
down until the defects can be
remedied.
The Good Luck is getting bet
ter dirt every day now. The
lead is just as plentiful as ever,
and the jack is coming in heavy.
The east drift is where the jack
is found, and it is coming in big
boulders of free ore. Several
members of the company have
already expressed themselves as
seeing the necessity of installing
improved machinery and a mod
ern mill.
The machinery for the McKin-
ley, on the Catholic forty, has
arrived and is being put in posi-
tion. Mr.. Mckinley has very
rich dirt in his prospect shaft,
and what drifting has been done
indicates that there is a large
area of very rich ore bearing
ground. AS soon as the area Of
the ore body is determined a
modern mill will be built.
Work will be resumed in the
Syndicate mine by Howard Nc
Common of Maryville, Mo. That
gentleman owned the five acres
just east, on which he sunk a
shaft and found but little ore.
He surrendered the lease and it
was taken by some miners who
went only few feet deeper and
encountered an eight-foot face of
rich lead dirt. These properties
are on the Haskell land north of
the Joanna.
The 3F property is coming to
the front in fine shape. In this
mine there are four distinct runs
of ore. The first run is found at
the very shallow depth of26 feet.
The lower runs of ore are very
rich and from drilling done at
different places on the lease it is
apparent that the entire property
is underlaid with ore. Mr.. Long,
the superintendent, says he ex-
poets to make some record out
puts very soon.
The management of the Hobo
is elated over its first run of ore
through the Omaha mill, with
which they are connected by a
tram road. The mill was run on
Hobo dirt Monday night, and
from 81 tons of dirt there was
cleaned six tons of jock and one
ton of lead. The dirt was from
a drift which was run after the
shaft was sunk deeper. The new
had a theory that
richer dirt would be found deeper
and this mill run proves it.
The Diamond C mine, which
has been shut down for the past
days to make some needed re-
pairs, will start up in a few days.
The Diamond C management be-
fore stopping work went into
itch lead when sinking deeper,
preparatory to Stopping. In the
upper workings this mine pro-
luces the most phenomenal zinc
lirt ever taken from any mine.
)ne Joplin man, who examined
he mine two weeks ago, said:
This mine would be a pippin if
was in Galena or joplin. ~

company is going to make money
very rapidly. Mining in the
sunlightis n new proposition in
the lead and zinc district, but
this is just what the Rock Creek
company in doing.
One of the big strikes of the
camp was made the past week at
the Mission. A large sheet Of
lead was encountered in the drift
southwest, and Supt. Brewster
says the indications are il will
make up into one of the largest
sheets of solid lead ever encoun-
tered in this camp, or any other.
This strike is in addition to the
big jack strike made in the drift
northeast last week. The man.
agement of the Mission is much
elated and is hurrying forward
arrangements for the building OF
the first unit of 500 tons daily ca
pacity of their proposed 1OOO-ton
mill. This property is now fully
opened up, and in the opinion of
experienced operators is in shape
to make one of the biggest pro-
ducers of ore in the entire lead
and zinc district.
The Mission continues to ex-
cite the admiration of all visitors.
The dirt is getting richer as the
work progresses. The stopping
in the southwest drift is opening
up run of ore very much richer
than anything yet found in this
wonderful mine. The lead is
coming in bigger chunks and the
| jack dirt is much heavier. The
same is true of the stop:ng work
in other directions. When the
Missions new mill is put into
commission the output is going
to be very heavy-in fact it is
going to break all records OF the
lead and zinc district. The pres
ent mill only has capacity OF
about seventy-five tons of dirt pei
shift, and it crowds the mill to
run even that much DIRT through
lit. But nevertheless, the mine is
making money every day it runs.
One of the most important
deals that has been consumated
for some time past in the mining
camp south of the city was the
deal closed yesterday whereby
VIM. Lenox, one of the richest
mining man of Colorado Springs,
purchased large interests in the
camp from DR.. Winkler. Among
the properties acquired was the
eighty acres north and west OF
the Mission purchased sometime
ago from Ex-Gov. Crawford, and
which is known to be in the very
heart of the defined portions of
the southwest end of the camp.
The deal is very important be-
cause it will bring into the camp
one of the most experienced and
successful mining men of the
west and possibly result in at
tracing others from that section.
Among other purchases made
sometime ago Mr.. Lenox acquir-
ed an interest in the Pasture
mine, which he has owned for
some time, and the management
will be in the hands of L. c.
Lenox, a son, who is also an ex-
perienced mining man. The de-
velopment of that property will
be pushed as rapidly as possible
from now on and the mine placed
among the producers of the
camp. Mr.. Lenox will at once
star the prospecting of the eighty
acres of fee land with a drill,
which will also be in charge of
his son. Should they find pay
stuff by drilling, shafts will be
sunk and that property also put
among the producers.

THE CROP ,;i|l,O REPORTS
UNDER DISCUSSION
Members of the House Differ AS
to Their Value-Agricultural
and Military Appropriations.
.5I (By Associated Press.

s C3y Associated Press.)
( WASHINGTON, May 2.--The House to-
day completed the agricultural appropria-
3tion BILL and passed the military academy
as 1t passed the House, carries $74S1,4;
Tho military academy bill carries
sl.GG3.1 lis.
There was little debate on the agricul-
tural appropriation bill. the ayes and
noes being taken on but one paragraph,
the provision relating to the continued dis
trlbutlon OF garden and flower seeds,
which was voted into the bill-15S to So.
Upon the completion and passage Of tho
agricultural budget, the military academy
bill was taken up and completed in two
hours.
{ An echo Of the recent scandals growing
out OF ''leaks" affecting cotton reports In
the Agricultural Department was created
by Mr.. Crumpacker undlana), who
thought that the appropriation for col
lecting agricultural statistics was en-
tlrcly too large. He believed that fore
casts of cotton crops made by the depart
mcnt promoted and fostered gamoling.
and instead of aiding the cotton grower.
It put the whole subject into the stock
market, and he questioned whether this
kind Of ''gucssing'' served any good.
i Mr.. Wadsworth (New York; replied by
saying that cotton growers. mnnufac-
turcrs and ginners had been before tho
committee and testified to the efficiency
OF the reports. which were OF very great
value.
=, Mr.. Scott (knnsns) said that tho accu-
racy Of the forecast was admitted on
every hand, and was invaluable to both
growers and manufacturers.
Mr.. Bartlett (Georgia) called attention
to the wonderful effect the export OF the
cotton crop Of the South had on produce
Ing the general prosperity OF the entire
country, and showed from statistics that
while the United States had exported in
1905 over $780, 100000 more than had been
imported, OF this sum the cotton of the
South amounted to $3.50, 100000 From
which he made the deduction that the
general prosperity of the country was
due more largely to the cotton crop than
to any other commodity He showed
that the value of the cotton crop of the
South for the past FIVE years exceeded
by nearly slCO, 1000 the entire production
OF gold and silver In tho world during
that time.
