AMERICAN FoRK busy.
Mines Being Worked to Capacity Re
gardlcss of Depressing Conditions.

The affairs in American Fork canyon
seem 20 be shaping toward "a most sue
c.7stul winter campaign The camp ls
pushing right along regardless OF the
.lrlhsency in the money market and
more exploratory ana development
work IS now being accomplished than
has been shown in many months.
me last good news was brought down
hy Ned Wild who. with his brother o.
working lease on the Dutchman mine.
Mr. Wild Is much elatel over condi-
lions at that property and believes that
the money and labor has not been
mls-spcnt during the past year. A
uFe-foot vein has been opened up and
this gives every indication that II is
one of the big carbonate ore bodies
for which Miller Hill, Is famous. The
old Dutchman has made good history
as a producer and shows every sign
of surprising its past record.
The Major Evans company which
was lately Incorporated by Jackson
brothers and J. J. Jones. has started
operations and Is opening up some
very promising territory Preparations
are being made to continue work
throughout the winter and 10 Is hoped
tl put the property among the shippers
at an early date.
After almost a year Of litigation. the
Surprise company again has d force OF
men working and viii now begin eX-
tracting the rich ore. The Surprise.
belonging to Judge Baskin of this city,
adjoins the Tyne properties and has
very similar ore bodies 20 tnot famous
mine IL is understood that the dis
pute between She two companies has
been settled and the Surprise people
are losing no time in getting busy
again.
The advent Of Jesse Knight has given
a great stimulus TO the camps activity.
THE Knight interests are located ut the
head OF the canyon. near the Alta d.
vide. and the heaviest development
work I'm the district is being done here
j. e.. Jensen who has charge of the
property is determined 10 make a
shipping mine by next season.

their progress has been more rapid. II

The men are stin able TO communi-
cate with the surfaoa boy means OF tho
telephone, and say that none of them
has ventured 10 the mouth OF the shaft
because OF the fear OF falling rock.
The small particles OF earth and rock
constantly sitting downward keep the
air filled with heavy dust, which i6

The 1O00-foot station Is heavily tim

the entire shaft might be crushed In

at the mine for his bravery and FORTH

Owing TO the distance which the re-

Little Hope Held ont for the Men En-
tombed In Ely Mine

A dispatch from Ely says that the
work of rcscuiug the entombed miners
On the Alpha shaft is proceeding very
slowly.
The work is Of such a character that
only men Of unquestioned nerve and
skill can be employed, and rs a con-
sequence the best men In the entire
district have been impressed from all
the properties In the district for this
work
Yesterday morning the rescuers were
in great danger because of the grad

cles of earth and rock that siftad down
behind the timberiug almost as rapid

To overcome this the rescue gangs

Consequently their work las extreme

r. J. Nichols OF the Progressive Min
ing company. whose property Is located
IN Beaver county. Is In receipt OF a
most encouraging letter from Manager
Leasing. The Progressive has been
working along steadily for some time
past and has made several importan,
strikes during that time. The mine
h located on the north and south line
belt that has made so many big pro
ducers ia Beaver county ana star DIS
trict in particular
FIRST VEIN ENCOUNTERED.
Manager Leasing states that the first
vein mas been struck 900 the west druJ
which is being run 20 intercept scrles
of well denued nssures showing pa Jne

vein was three feet wide and the ore
was sun mixed tnroush the anne. unis
is the nrst instance wnere the footwall
has been of p0rpnyry ana the manage
nent feels hIgnly elated over the fact
Some time ago several strngers APP
peared in tne laCe and disclosed the
fact That an ore body was being ape
proacned. assays from these strins
ers, running INTO the vein, showed vail
ues OF 33 per cent lead, Ga So1.ees OF

tareu ls fully 300 feet west OF any so
far disclosed in the mine.
CARLOAD OF RICH ORE.
In the oluer workings of the mine
there are a number Of places where
good ore Is exposed. Al the bottom on
the old incline the company is extract
ing ore from a streak 4 TO IL inches
IN width. This rock viii average GO
ounces In silver, 90 per cent lead, 81. 50
IN gold ana 2 per cent copper.
There Is now a carload OF this class
OF ore on the dump but this win not
bc shipped on account Of the low metal
prices. The mine has been productive
OF small lots Of exceedingly high grads
copper rock and is as yet but little
developed.
The progressive company SIS working
ahead with the idea OF making "a mine
and the management Is sparing no ef-
fort to accomplish this end only "a
small force is now being WORKED at
present but this Will probably be large
