Big ADDITIONS TO
WESTERN ROADS
THREE SYSTEMS ADDING THOU
SANDS OF MILES TO THEIR LINES.
Milwaukee, Coast Line, Great North
ern's Columbia River Division. and
New Gould Coast Line Mean 5000
Miles Of New Road at Cost Of Hun
dreds Of Millions.

Special to The Journal.
New York. Jan. l9:-Three great rail
road projects are under way IN the Tar
They involve the construc-
tion 5000 miles of line and the
.penditure Of hundreds Of millions Of
dollars. They are the extension of the
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul line
from the Missouri river to Seattle, the
building Of a Great Northern line from
bank of the Columbia river, and the
Western Paciic's line from San Fran
cisco to Salt Lake City, another great
link in the Gould socean-to-ocean sys-
tenn.
These are not paper railroads. Con
struction is actually going On, and the
forces behind the enterprises are the
kind that do not stop short Of com-
pleted work.
tremendous possibilities. The Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul line will be at
least 1900 miles long and will tap rich
mining regions in Montana and Idaho,
and the great "Inland Empire of
Washington and Oregon. Moody's
Magazine is responsible for the state
ment that the yearly revenue from the
farms Of this, only partially occupied
empire is already $75.000,000, and the
JerTlCOry IS De1ng occupied by 5U,UUU
more people yearly. The road, however,
is counting largely on thru traffic. as
well as on the local traffic Of the new
country the road will help to develop.
The Great Northern g new line will
cover $50 miles and will tap new areas
Of the same rich empire. The construc-
tion Of this line will be expensive, but
the territory is sure to develop with
great rapidity and feed and be fed by
the line to the mutual advantage Of
both territory and railroad. Work is
already under way.
The Western Pacific, also under con-
struction, means an outlay Of 100000
900 for a direct line Of at least $50
miles across California, Nevada and
Utah, and for 500 miles Of feeders. The
line will originate much local traffic in
California. e%snecially in the Sacramento
valley. It will also tap a rich gold dis
trict and mining territory in Nevada,
also the irrigated district of. Carson,
New. The great significance Of the
Western Pacifc+is seen In thesfact that
it completes the Gould system from
Pittsburg to the Pacific. andNwhen an
eastern link is added will complete, un-
less some other system gets ahead of it,
the first ocean-to-ocean system in the
United States. g4s~9fs

RAnRoAn NOTES.
TO BEGIN
Roosevelt Club Players Determined tx
Make 1906 Opera Best.

The singing and dancing members Of
the Roosevelt club will begin work
Saturday evening on their 1906 produc-
ton. Altho this seasons opera is not
to- be- given until after the Lenten sea-
son, work will have to be begun earlier
and many more ,rehearsals than usual
will be required to bring the play up
to the clubs usual high standard.
The france of Oudh,o the vehicle
selected for this season, undoubtedly
will be the best thing the club has as
vet produced. The book and the great
er part Of the lyrics are by Cyrus
Brown, one Of the talented members
Of the club. The music is by Claude
Madden, the well-known ~violinist and
composer.
The fact that the opera is a home
production thruout will make it all the
more difficult Of production as all the
costumes must be provided, all the
scenery planned and painted, the light
effects worked out, and all the chorus
movements and ensemble numbers
brought to harmony. The members Of
the committee as well as the players
will have busy time for the next
three months.

The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1906-09-01

thick at the large end. and from six to
eight feet long"
From an exhaustive report of Prof
j. S. Newberry of the geological de-
partment of the Columbia university, the
following is taken:
1.-THE quality of ore is equal to any
known. In few instances 1t is found
moro or less oxidIzed, but the most of
it Is brittle. metallic stibnite, or the
sulphide of antlmouy containing about
70 per cent antimony and % per cent
sulphur This is the common form OF
an;imony ore, but 1t usually occurs in
stones, and no considerable quantity
has ever been found before In sedl-
mentary deposits" Prof, Newberry
gives, in addition, an interesting ac-
count OF his theory as in what manner
these deposits occurred, which Is in
effect that the solutions OF antimony
were poured out during volcanic dis
turbances OF the Tertiary period
while the sedimentary sandstones and
conglomerates were being deposited
The waters of the surrounding basins
were so strongly charged with the anti
mony that the metal was precipitated
and as these antimonial deposits ceased
In time the accumulations OF the sedi-
mentary deposits gradually covered
them
Mr.. Campbell is Of the opinion that
the anrimony industry for Utah will as
sumo enormous proportions. The de-
posits are distributed over a very large
area. and the supply Of the metal
Is practically inexhaustible. One inter-
esting fact in the antimony industry is
that in its reduction the process is en-
urely by vaporizntlon.

BINGHAM CON. HAS
BROKEN ALL RECORDS
Company Handles a Great VOL
ume of Business i'm
Month of August.

In the present season OF unparalleled
activity and rcmuncratlve results among
the mining companies In the State OF
Utah, the Bingham Consolidated company
has been proceeding along lines exactly
In keeping with the now order Of things,
although very little has been said about
this company or it's achievements since
the last visit OF Mr.. HeinZe and others
prominent among the Bingham Consoli-
dated family. This company, neYerthe-
less. has just finished one Of the banner
months OF Its existence, the month OF
August going down In the books of the
company as the best since the company
was organized
During the month of August the Bling
ham Consolidated company handled to-
tai Of 10000 tons of ore from It's various
mining properties. this total including the
output from the Eagle and Blue Bell
mlne While the company has yet to
bring the months total OF business TO
the pound and dollar basis. IL Is certain
that the final result when definitely
known will not vary greatly from the fig
ures given. The Bingham Consolidated
company has not been a stranger TO hon
orable achievements In the past, but the
record for August speaks most eloquently
for the character of work now being done
by this great Utah organization.
It may be stated as a matter of logic
that the present active campaign OF work
is one result OF the season planned by
the Helnze interests since they have Sc
cured the control OF the organization,
But 1t is n fact also that tho quality OF
development work done by the manage
ment during the formative period OF the
company has laid the foundation for the
present record breaking ability of the
Bingham Con. The company Is just be-
ginning to get Its hands free for the
handling of still greater tonnages from
It's own properties by the expiration of
the contracts whereby ii has taken charge
of large tonnage from other prominent
Bingham mines.
The properties OF the Bingham Con-
company are reported as being In the
very best OF condition. everything point
ing TO a season Of great prosperity In

Optimistic Feeling Over Cumberland
and Ely May Means Good News.

Although the Cumberland and Ely COM
pany has been the recipient of many SIN
cere compliments during the past few
months, during which time the consoli-
dation OF this property with that OF the
Nevada Consolidated has been predicted
freely, IL was not until Friday that the
stock of this company in Salt Lake took
on such an optimistic glow that local In
vestors were led to believe the day OF
consolidation was near at hand. Nothing
definite regarding the plans OF these Two
powerful Ely companies has been allowed
TO leak out from the Ely end Of the prop
ositlon, but as coming events cast their
shadows before. the local talent are ex-
peating something interesting to drop
shortly. The combination OF the Cum
berland and Ely and the Nevada Consoll-
dated companies always has been con-
sidered as the most logical thing to do
under the circumstances, and the day OF
change may not be far away.

GREAT MABEL LEDGE
CROSSES THIS GROUP
Salt Lakers Secure Finely Lo-
Gated Ground i'm Black
Horse District.

IT is only natural for Utah mining In
| terests TO got in carly on all good propo-
| sltions in Nevada these strenuous days,
and although Salt Lakers were among the
| first in the Black Horse district, they
| arc getting in ut the present time with
their characteristic energy and good for
tune. There was formed in this city on
Thursday the White Jack Mining COM
pany, composed of prominent Salt Lake
investors and Black Horse pioneers who
nave every reason to anticipate good re-
suits from their efforts upon tho claims
owned by this company.
This group was located early in tho
Black Horse rush by Fred l.. Schrott,
known as the Lucky Dutchman," whose
operations on the Mabel possessions havo
made his namo familiar all over tho
State. Mr.. Schrott, who Is interested In
the White Jack company as well as the
Mabel organization stated Friday that
the White Jack properties adjoln the
Mabel ground, lying between this and the
group known as the Black Horse, upon
which tho first strike in the district was
made the first of the present year.
The vein that Crosses tho full length OF
the Mabel group extends on and across
the White Jack property, and upon tho
latter group orc OF similar high char
acter has been found as that encountered
upon the former. Mr.. Schrott Is thorough
ly familiar with the district. and In his
opinion the White Jack will prove rs gen.
erous find as the Mabel and its other
prominent neighbors, The Black Horse
district is known as Salt Lake territory,
for tho reason that oil supplies can be
secured here and sent TO the front much
cheaper than from any other city In the
West. That Salt Lake Will secure this
large trade Is made more certain with
each interest secured there by Salt
Iakers

Tintic Rate Question VIII Be Taken Up

meet in this city for the purpose OF again
going over the points involved In the
question of lowering the railroad rates

below the values now necessary before
shipments can be made. The meetings OF
these two committees have been charac-
terlzed throughout by the most friendly
relations In every way, both parties to
the question proceeding along lines to
the effect that valuable interests for both
sides are at stake and the meeting called

AUGUST IS BEST
MONTH IN HISTORY
Columbus Consolidated Sends
in RecOrd-B Breaking Amounts
During Last Month.
OVER EIGHTY THOUSAND
DOLLARS FROM SHELTERS
September Will Average Still
Better; Only Copper VIII
Be Shipped.

Nothing could better illustrate the re-
sources Of the Columbus Consolidated
property, and the character of its man
ngement, which Is getting around the
transportation difficulties successfully,
than the report OF the shipments and re-
ceipts during the closed month of August.
1t is only within the present year that
the Columbus Consolidated company has
seen nothing but clear daylight ahead OF
them, and as bright and favorable as
the present Is, the future has much more
in store for this company.
During August the company sent 10
the local market a total OF 6S4 tons. dry
weight of concentrates. which. avorag-
ing about s2S.SS per ton, netted the COM
pany from the smelters the sum of
S1s,4S1,S7 During the same month to-
tai OF 1894 tons, dry weight. Of crude ore
was sent to the market, and this. averag-
ing s4365 per ton. brought the company
the sum Of $50. .S43.l0 from the smelters.
In other words, the Columbus Consoli-
dated company received In August the
total sum of SS0,274.97 net from the
smelters,
This, perhaps, is the best month ever
experienced by the company, although
during last year there was one shipment
of ore that averaged higher than the ship
ment received during the last days OF
last month, which held the best average
values for the present year. 1t is con-
sidered safe prophecy to say that the
month OF September will even eclipse
the record OF August, as the company will
ship nothing to the market for the next
two weeks but It's rich copper ore, This
should run the averages up beyond all
previous achievements.
1t is such successes as these that en-
able the Columbus management to accu-
mulate as comfortable a surplus as Is
enjoyed by almost any Utah property. and
the present year really is the first pro-
ductive year OF the company's history

RAINS HELP THE MINERS.
Dugway Country Has Been Very Much
Blessed Last Month

S. NJ Levy Of the National Development
company has returned from the Dugway
district, where he, accompanied by George
Dern, manager of the Consolidated Mer
cur company. and William Ball. superin-
tendent OF the Lower Mammoth. inVesti-
gated several properties Of prominence.
Among the groups inspected was that OF
the st. George Copper company, one Of
the most active mines In that district.
Mr.. Levy states that development work
is progressing satisfactorily and that the
company is blocking out a considerable
tonnage OF ore.
Mr.. Levy states that the recent heavy
rains have so increased the water supply
OF the district that there are large
number OF outfits now going in to COM
mence operations upon their possessions.
He met several en- route as he came out.
and the coming season gives promise of
being one OF the most active IN the his
tory OF the territory.
