WORK To RESUME
On COMSTOCK

Work viii o. resumed iu The Ward
SHAFT. az Virrinla city. tomorrow
Operations viii also be resumed in
the Sierra Nevada. Union Consolidat-
cd. Mexican. Savage. ChonaT and po-
tosi within a fortnight.
These mines were closed down be-
cause of the financial stringeucy. and
the consequent impossibility OF Sc
curing money from San Francisco TO
continue work That they are about
TO open up again is another hopeful
sign of the passing of the squeeze.
The resumption of work in the
Ward shaft was decided upon at a
meeting of the Ward Shaft Associa-
ton few days ago. This work is
the most important at present on the
Comstock lode. for its completion
means the Inauguration of the un-
/, watering of the middle and south
end Comstock mines, some of which
have been in submergence for more
than a quarter of century, and sew
eral of which are known to contain
| large bodies of high grade ore, under
| the water line.

WILL BE THREE SHIFTS.

w. j. Douglass, of the Consolidated
mine, and heavily interested in the
milling plant on Mustang Hill, was
in camp Monday and Tuesday while
the final connecting up of the cyanide
end of the plant was being made.
He was well pleased with the prog
ress that has been made under diff
cult circumstances. Everything at
the mill will be complete in a few
days, and by this time next week
the plant will be we'll on its way of
running with three shifts daily.
The result of the cleanups made SO
far bear out all that was indicated
by the smelter tests for Consolidated
ore values, and more than confirm
the frequent sampling made at the
mine.
Forty tons of ore are daily going
down the canyon from the mine to
the mill

los ANGELES GETS IN.

r. A. Watson returned last night
from Los Angeles, where he was sue
cessful in completing arrangements
for the immediate operation of leases
10 and IA on Union No. g. The lots
of ground which have already yielded
several thousand tons of ore that is
now awaiting the completion of the
Lemon mill, will, in the future, be
operated by the decentralization
Leasing Company.
A steam hosting plant will be
brought in Immediately In the mean
time, the shaft which is down zoo
feet, will be Strengthened and tim
bered and all put in readiness for
effective work when the machinery
arrives.
The ore on these dumps, taken out
by former leasers, amounts to many
thousands of dollars in value. 1t will
be the first to go through the Lemon
mill. A tram road is being put in
by A. D. Nash to transport this ore
to the mill Both tram and mill will
be ready for business within few
days.

WORK
At MANHATTAN

The workings at depth on the
Otero are showing az an ore body
OF immense proportions and Of great
promise. So tar as opened IN the
crosscut and in drifts ON the foot
wall. the ledge al this level is some
what broken up. similar to the con-
ditions as found in the Thanksgiving.
which Is on the same contact further
west.
The crosscut is in the ledge a dis
tance of thirty feet, with no hanging
wall in sight
In this cut, three average samples
this week gave assay returns Of
$13.3s. 1882 and sac.
The Otero showing at this depth
gives all the indications that could
be desired that it will ultimately
make a mine of important proper
lions.

MILL THE need
OF GOLD Circle

According to the Tuscarora Mining
News there are now about 100 peo-
pie in Cold Circle district and more
going in all the time. New frame
buildings are being erected in the
town and all choice lots have not only
doubled in price, but are in great de-
mand.
AS soon as the financial condition
is adjusted a big rush is looked for
and nearly all claim owners are busy
developing their holdings so they will
have something to show. prospective
investors.
What is most needed in the dis
trict. and what will develop the re-
sources of the district more than any
thing else, is a custom mill One
could be installed at a very low fig
ure as the water power to generate
electricity is but three miles away
and plenty of water to run the bat
teries can be developed along the
creek. If a 100-stamp mill was built
it could get more than enough ore
to run it the entire time for years
to come and as nearly all the lodges
average over $40 the mill would be
justified in charging a good figure to
pay them for the venture.

CIT RICH LEDGE.

Messrs. Sheldon and Graves, who
recently took a lease on the Buck
board claim adjoining the Hickey
lease, have already cut two lodges
in the shaft which pan free gold.
They will push operations and open
up these pay Lodges at depth. 1t is
the belief of the operators that they
have struck the connecting link be-
tween the Union ore bodies and
the rich leads on the Seyler-Humph-
rey property.

ON MINERAL HILL.

Work in the crosscut in the 200
level on Mineral Hill has been de-
layed a week by the necessity OF tim
bering the north drive. This has
been done and it will not be many
days before the ledge will be reached.
The face of the crosscut is now 80
feet from the bottom of the shaft.
The Mineral Hill workings are in
the same contact vein and not far
removed from the Otero, in which
such good showings have been found
at all stages. Mineral Hill is booked

These happenings.
AN AMERICAN IS EXPELLED

PORT AU PRINCE, HAYTI, February
1o-The relations between the govern
nlents of Hayti and Germany are strained,
owing to the refusal OF the German bank
ers. Hermann and Company, by the direc-
ton OF the courts at Port nu Prince, to
return to the Haytian government large
sums OF money alleged to have been OBJ
talned fraudulently. Among the alleged
transactions Of Hermann and Company
with the Haytian government wus one
which is said to have proved favorable
to tho government. This was concluded
by the Haytlan Minister of Finance the
German Legation and Hermann and Com
pany.
:. The German minister demanded that
this transaction, as we'll as others, be
annulled. but the Haytian government
in terms that the German minister
deemed offensive. refused to acquiesce.
The German minister at the same time
demanded the withdrawal of the phrase
objected to, but this also was refused.
Fears are entertained here Of the grave
complications ensuing. The Official Mon
itor recently published notice of the
expulsion OF Mr. Mansour. an American
citizen. but Mr.. Furnlss, the American
minister. believing the call for the man's
expulsion unjIstihed, asked for the with
dr1wal Of the order, This. however, was
refused. and Mansour has left for New
York. The seal OF the American legation

THE jill GIVES
PRESIDENT CREDIT
Says That New Treaty Should
Be Made Regarding
Coolies.

TOXIC, February 1O.--(Afternoon)-
rhe JILL In leading editorial anent
the San Francisco incident expresses d
disbelief in the possibility OF the adop-
ton OF new treaty mutually restrict
ing labor immigration as u solution or
the public school controversy.
The Jill declares that it Is aware
that large number Of Japanese are
going to San Francisco from Hawaii.
and that this immi grafton is causing
Jealousy on the part of white labor,
but 1t contends that this Is due to the
Imperfect provision of the existing
law. which might be remedied by an
agreement on the part Of both govern
mcnts, but which should constitute
an entirely separate subject Of dis
cussion as not concerning the present
San Francisco dispute. In which latter
Japan stands on her treaty rights.
The jill, Judging by statements at
tributed to both governments. draws
the conclusion that If satisfactory
adjustment Of the difficulty is reached
the credit will be solely due to the
admirable efforts put forth by Presi-
dent Roosevelt.
