TONOPAH, New, Sept 20.-Louis de
Sallier and ]. c. Bray have returned
from the country about Yerington and
the Mason Valley. They report that
the activity at the latter place is very
great, and that a number of substan-
tfal companies are working copper
properties with splendid results. The
principal mine in the section is the
Ludwig, and the travellers were told
that the property had been paying good
dividends to its stockholders at regular
intervals for the past seven years. The
ground of this company was located as
far back as 1868, and under the mining
statutes in force at that time the claim
embraces a section 500 feet by 1900
feet. The workings have reached a
depth of 500 feet, and at that point a
that shows one and a half per cent
copper in solution. To save this pre-
cipitation plant has been installed at
the mine and water from the shaft is
pumped direct to this. The plant Is
said to do very satisfactory work and
to be the means of added profit to the
company. The principal revenue from
the property has been from the great
amount of azurite it has produced. This
finds a ready market among the stone
polishers of the country, and brings
about SO cents a pound. At the 4O0-foot
level of the mine it is said that the
ledge shows thirty feet in width and
runs thirty per cent in copper. Mason
Valley is located about twenty miles
almost due south Of Wasuska on the
line of the Southern Pacific from Hazen
to Nina The valley lies as the western
boundary of the Walker Lake indian
reservation, which the Government pro-
poses to open for settlement and ex-
pIoration in the near future, and IT
is said that the copper lode can be
traced across a large portion of the
Indian land.

SILVER PEAK DEVELOPMENT.

Of this place, has returned from an in

pany owns He is well pleased with
the showing at the mine and. for that
matter. In the whole section. He pre-
diets that Silver Peak will be the talk
of the mining world in a short time.
As to the Valcalda, he feels certain
that il will make a big mineiw with more
development. and present showings
would appear to justify him in that be-
lief. The ledge Of the valcalda lies
fiat on the hillside for considerable
distance and was opened by the orig
inal owners, the Valealda brothers, by
a tunnel When the present owners
took the property the tunnel was IN
some sixty feet, and on driving six feet
farther the present ore body was en-
eountered. which illustrates the factor
or chance connected with mining. At
present the workings have exposed 24O
feet OF the ledge. which varies from six
to eight feet in width. Last week sam
pies were taken from this entire ex-
posure consisting of five fifty-pound
sacks. The lowest assay from these

RICH LEDGE IS UNCOVERED
Strike I'm West TonOpah That Efforts
Are Made to Conceal.

TONOPAH. New, Sept. 20.-It is stat
ed on the authority of men who claim
TO have been in the mine that the west
Tonopah people have a three and hair
foot ledge of ore that will go from $50
to $50 ton in winze in the north
crosscut. According to the report, this
was encountered two months or more
ago, when the last rumor of a strike
in the mine was circulated. The ore
body was first encountered as a six
inch streak close to a strong geological
fault A winze was put down on this
and at a depth of thirty feet the ledge
widened to over three feet The place
where the find was made is close TO
the side line of the Lottery claim on
which the shaft is situated, and the
company, having determined that the
ledge promised TO become big ore
body, closed up the winze and began
wandering aimlessly about in another
direction, at the same time doing all
it could to smother the story of the
strike. 1t is thought that this was
done in the hope of securing the
Lucky Dog claim adjoining, into which
the ledge probably would dip. Whether
the effort was successful or not is not
known, but it is stated that the in
creased activity at the mine is due to
the fact that work has been resumed
on the winze, and that 1t has been de-
termined TO sink the shaft 100 feet

local officials of the company will say
nothing, stating that they have not
been authorized to do so.s but IL is a
fact that three shifts have been put
on the mine and that work is going on
very rapidly. On Saturday the stock
of this company stood at 80 cents asked
on the San Francisco Exchange, and
on Monday in the local exchange 81
cents was bid. with no takers in sight.
