Baldwin Locomotive Works Denies
That Orders Were Cancelled.

A printed report that the Pennsyl-
vania railroad had cancelled an order
for 425 locomotives placed with the
Baldwin Locomotive Works and that
the Baldwin works were, as a result,
to reduce their working force by one
third, has been officially denied.
Samuel f. Vauclain, general SUI
perintendent of the Baldwin works,
makes this statement:
I'VE have never had an order of
such size from the Pennsylvania
railroad and will not reduce our
working force this year.
Regarding our orders, the fact is
we recently received a hurry order
for 25 locomotives, and these are be-
ing turned out with the greatest pos
sible speed.
1--WE have no cancellations. In a
few orders, which can be counted on
the fingers of one hand, work has
been held up, as the companies con-
cerned are not ready for their ship
ment. Such things are not unusual

Il can't see why any one should
anything is the matter with Ely"
said J. B. Simpson, the old-time
mining man who has just returned
from a visit to the camp that was
his first love. The mines are work
ing more men than ever and they are
calling for still more. Carpenters re-
ceive Sc day and other workingmen
are paid accordingly. And business
is good too. Some of the saloons and
gambling houses are complaining be-
cause they don't take in several
hundred dollars day, as they did
when the first boom was on, but
business generally is on a safe, con-
SENTATIVE, paying basis.
There's a reason for this. There
has never before been mining camp
in which so much money was being
expended for development before any
attempt was made at production.
The big capitalists who are behind
this development are not frightened
by furry in the metal and stock
markets. They know that the world
cannot get along without copper and
they know that the Ely district will
be able to produce copper at a profit
when most of the other camps of the
world are compelled to close down.
should it come to a showdown in the
matter Of producing the metal
cheaply.
1.-The great bodies of ore in the
Ely district are close to the surface
and are easily mined and easily treat
ed. Virtually every ton of ore that
will be produced there besides copper
contents contain about so cents in
gold and three ounces in silver.
This is an important item in the
handling of immense tonnages of ore.
1t represents the difference between
possible loss and profits which in the
aggregate will amount to millions.
1t means that Ely will be one of the
greatest mining camps in the country.
1.-The men who are market wise
know that they are nearer a steady
healthy market for the copper thar
they were when it was selling at
prices that could not but restrict its
use.
ELY is prosperous now and her
best days are in the future. 1t is
against my principles to mortgage
my home, but | am almost tempted
to do that very thing in order to be
able to pick up some of the copper
stocks that are going begging at this
time. | honestly believe that $40
invested today in any one of three or
four big companies operating in Ely
will be worth 800 eight months
from now"

MINING, MARKETS AND METAL
ACTIVITY AT HAMILTON.
Busy Winter Ahead for the Camp
Companies Now Working.

The McEllin mines will be worked
all winter, several men being en-
ployed at present in taking out the
ore that has made this mine famous
and which to large extent is re-
sponsible for the reawakened in
terest in the old camp and the large
number of new properties that have
been opened up in the lead-silver
belt.
During. the last few months the
mine under the management of Ed
McEllin has produced and shipped
more lead-silver ore than any other
mine of the district, and all indi-
cations point to a wonderful pro-
duction for 1908.
All of the ground on White Pine
mountain in the vicinity of the Nc
Ellin mine has been taken up and
is being worked and in every in
stance producing. ore, from the
high grade lead-silver that is. being
taken out on the Alta-Zoanni, I'M
der the management of Roy w.
Schenck, to the great bodies of the
King lode as beng worked by the
Nevada Lead company under the
management of S. f. Hunt. In this
neighborhood the following proper
ties will be worked this winter:
The Carbonate King, owned by
Denver capitalists; the Peterson
group; the Ahern group; the Ari-
IONA group, owned by a syndicate
at Clifton, Arizona; the Nevada Lead
company mines; the Hamilton Lead
company mines; the AltaZoanni
group; the Nevada patent and sew
eral other adjacent properties.
The east side of White Pine noun
tain will be the scene of great activi-
ties during the coming year, and
Judging from the ore now in sight
on the various properties, will pro-
duce large tonnage, adding great
wealth to White Pine county during
1908.
The Bronco brothers and associ-
ates have secured lease on the Fay
and G. o. ID. mines on Treasure Hill
belonging to the Grandlemeyer es-
tate, and are preparing to spend the
winter in development work. Within
short time after taking the lease
they encountered a pay streak of
high grade ore the extent Of which
has not yet been determined, but
from all indications will prove to be
one of the richest strikes of the dis
trict.
These properties were heavy pro-
ducers in the days when Treasure
Hill was famous, but for several
years past have been ignored. Five
men will be kept busy this winter
taking out the ore now in sight, much
of which runs high both in silver and
copper
The Nevada Lead company has
finished its new building near King
canyon and the employees are now
in new and comfortable quarters.
Smith and Fuller, who have been
working the old Nevada for several
months, are taking out ore daily and
had a shipment loaded on the cars
at Eureka last week, when they re-
ceived word that the U. S. smelter,
to which it was consigned, had shut
down. They state that work Will be
continued during the winter months
just the same, however, and expect
to have large amount of ore ready
for shipment in the spring Mining
