MINING NOTES
FROM THE ELY CAMP

Ely, New, July 6.-It is reported that the
Cumberland Ely company expects to sink
a large four-compartment shaft on it's
property in the near future. Considera-
BILE lumber has been hauled to the Vet
eran shaft and a large force of men has
being done at the Wedge shaft of the
Cumberland Ely. Another shaft is to be
sunk at the Nevada Consolidated. Miners
have been working around the Columbia
shaft and the results of their drillings are
most promising.
J. Milloughby, manager Of the Butte
and Ely, is in Ely and reports things
progressing in fine style on the com
pany's property. Big Roadway is being
made with the work.
Ties are being placed all along the ore
line route of the Nevada Northern up
Robinson canyon. Gangs of section men
are at work and the railroad is being
rushed to completion. They are already
beyond the big cut on the other side of
the keystone tunnel
The Nevada Consolidated is rushing
work at the Star Pointer, and, judging
from present indications the company will
workmen are making great progress and
the mine is the scene of big operations
s A. Meyers has arrived in Ely from
CObre and reports all the mining country
on the west range located. He states that
prospectOrs have flocked in there in great
numbers and that everything has been
taken up. Men are in great demand at
Hunter, Cherry Creek and numerous 9TH
er camps.
All the miners have done their assess
ment work" said Mr.. Meyers. There is
plenty of green feed and water and

GETTING DOWN TO WORK
AT THE EMMA MINE

Since the purchase of the famous old
Emma mines Of Alta by L. r. Martineau,
William Groesbeck and other well-known
Utah opera tors the cleaning out of the
old tunnel workings has been in progress
and considerable Roadway has been made.
Tomorrow Mr.. Groesbeck will leave for
camp and take personal charge of the
operations and, within a short time, ore
will be rolling down the canyon I'm the
direction of the valley smelters. Recent
samplings of some of the older workings
which are now accessible show that Chlor-
ide ores of good commercial value are
still in evidence and, as development pro-
crosses under the direction of Mr.. Groes-
beck who is as familiar with the old
workings as he is with the alphabet the
things left undone by the Britishers who
owned it will now be attended to and re-
suits will speedily follow.
Some Of the biggest operators in this
state have become identified with the
proposition and it is going to be heard
from before long.

Mines and Mining Stocks
LOCAL OPERATORS GET
FINE CALIFORNIA MINES

Local operators. including William H.
Tibbals. Ed McCarrick and A. Hanauer
jr., celebrated the Fourth by closing a
deal for two groups of claims, thirteen
in all, in InyO county, California. Some
of these properties were worked as long
ago as 1874 and during the three years fol-
lowing produced more than $4,000 worth
Of ore. as shown by the smelter returns
from the Selby company. The first mon
eys on the purchase price were paid over
on Friday, and yesterday Daniel Mcleod,
for years Identified with the big mines of
Bingham, was dispatched to Keller to
open the campaign at the properties.
There is all kinds Of rejoicing in the
ranks of those who have been able to
land the properties first, because they Sc
cured them on most favorable terms and
second, because the examinations made
leave no doubt that they can be convert
ed into big paying propositions, even be-
fore the close of the present year.
In the early days, when it was impossi-
bic to do anything with copper. the own
ers COntented themselves with the pay
they received for the silver and lead con-
tents of the ore. They mined only to
shallow depths and then quit. For more
than twenty years there has been little
or nothing done on the ground and the
Salt Lake crowd will take hold with the
full knowledge that the mines have bare
ly been scratched and that the copper
found in considerable of the rock will now
add to its value. rather than prove
drawback, as in the early days.
Selby's smelter return sheets for some
thing over 1900 lots or shipments In 1887
showed average value per ton of $3.50 to
over $500 The values in the ore are found
principally in the lead and silver Many
of the shipments carried from 20 ounces
to $50 ounces silver and from "a to 641s per
cent lead.
Three assays made the present month
gave values as follows; No. 1-141S per
cent copper, AS per cent lead. 1912 ounces
silver and 50 cents gold; No. 2-5l3 per
cent lead, 1864 ounces silver and 81 in
gold; No. 3-423 per cent lead, 22.S ounces
silver and 40 cents gold

Williams. a member of the l.. & y.
bridge crew. lost his life late yesteT-
day afternoon. Tho man was work
ing with others making repairs to the
long trestle when the wind carried his

hesitation Williams leaped from the

render him assistance, it was found
to be too late.

Traffic over the Pensacola division
of the Louisville & Nashville was re-
sumed yesterday morning. and al
though all trains arrived and depart
ed, they We're several hours late, uue
to the necessity of trains being run
slowly over portions of track which
were washed out Wednesday morning.
Train No ,, due in yesterday morn
ing at o'clock. passed over the line
with safety but arrived several hours
late, bringing much delayed mail and
many passengers from Flomaton. No.
4 went out on time AT noon, Int was
late in reaching FlOmaton and still
later in returning to the city. The
same was true of No. ) for Mobile,
which returned about s o'clock last
night.
The washout north of Bluff Springs.
which was caused by the breaking Of
the dam of grist mill. WAS repaired
early yesterday morning. 1t was
more than 100 feet in width and posi-
bly, thirty feet deep. A large force Of
men were employed in filling in the
crevasse and very fast work was ac-
complished. considering the conditions
to be encountered.
The WaShOut near Century was also
a bad one to handle but trains passed
over it about the same time that the
Bluff Springs repairs were completed.
Reports from the Yellow River di-
vision were TO the effect that many
small washOuts had occurred along
the line. and all trains arriving from
that division. were many hours late.
due to the necessity of passing over
the water-sOaked rOadbed at slow
rate of speed
Railroad officials expect that by 20
night the temporary repairs will he
made sufficiently permanent to allow
trains to pass over without slackening
speed. and better schedules will be
maintained.
