Lower Mammoth Bodies Show
Much Better Every Way
With Depth.
MAY DAY ACTIVITY
SOON WILL BEGIN
Eight Hundred Level Uncle Sam
Mine Much Better Than
Upper Works.

That tho developments upon the
Lower Mammoth property have been
in the nature Of revelation to him
since his last visit TO tho mine WAS
acknowledged Friday by Manager John
Dcrn, who has returned from two
days visit to Tintic properties. Mr..
Dcrn stated yesterday that the present
showings were indeed pleasing. and tho
question now confronting the company
was not one of ore, but of securing
adequate labor TO handle the ore. Min
ing labor Mt Tlntic, as in other Utah
camps, is scarce. The machinery is now
running smoothly at tho mine.
Mr.. Dern states that the manage.
mcnt has started TO open up on the
l500foot level. and finds that the orc
is much more extensive than was
thought at first. On the 1700-level the
managcmen has only started TO stope,
but the work so far done has demon
strated the fact that the vein is wider
and the ore chute longer than IL was
above. The assay values also Indicate
decided Improvement over the upper
levels. Mr.. Dern stated that all this
augurs well for the property, for it
shows the real resources of the Lower
Mammoth are yet below the present
workings.
Since his last visit there has been
much work done upon the ore body on
the SO0-foot level of the Uncle Sam Con
solldated property, and q tremendous
ore chute has been opened up. While
this ore is largely milling grade, it's
value is decided improvement over
the Uncle Sam ores above. Mr.. Dern
figures that fully forty feet yet sepa.
rates the drift from the ore on the
Humbug ground. Mr.. Dern pronounces
the Uncle Sam mine in fine shape
AS soon as all the kinks are straight
enod out, Mr.. Dern states, the May Day
will again be active, and this is ex-
pected to occur within the next few
DAYS.

COMET IN RICH ORE,
Property Adjoining the Newhouse Ap-
parertly Has Famous Resources.

At the local Offices Of the Nevada
Utah Mining company, are some speci-
mems Of copper ore from the Comet prop
erty in Beaver county that would ap-
parently convince any one of the fact
that this ground certainly contains the
extension of the noted Newhouse ore
body. The Comet adJoins the Newhouse

at work going to depths in search Of
hidden red metal treasure. The man"
agement is now crosscuttlng on the 200
foot and 100.foot levels and in so do
ing is encounterlng the ore that so
closely resembles that now being taken
from the 200 level of the Newhouse.
This particular character of rock is
rich IN copper, containing great deal of
black oxide. and as the Newhouse man
agemenJ descends upon 1t there is a
noted increase IN value The Comet
also is giving up some very fine spec
linens of chalcopyrite, and great num-
Der of splendid iron writes crystals,
practically identical with the Newbouse
conditions. Manager Snyder stated yes
terday that the formation of the Comet
was the same as the Newhouse, be-
ing a granite. and while he would not
say that he had the Newhouse body
within reach. it was apparent from the
plan of development now being pur..

the same rich body in due time

UTAH APEX MAKING

Bingham Company Steadily
Sends Out Richest Ore in Its
History.

4 typical Bingham copper producer
is very nearly arrived i'll the Utah Apex
property. and General Manager Walter
G. Orom stated Friday that the present
shipments contained a character of orc
that has never been equaled by the
company for richness. The present rate
OF shipment is about 20 tons a day,
Plny easily could double this, as all the
second class rock has 10 be disposed of
either on the dumps or back-fillinG III
the Slopes. During the last two months
there has been a sufficient tonnage of
milling ore stored to one side to run
the mill for eour months,
The delay in completing. the Mark
ham Guich CONCENTRATING plant is now
about ended, as the machinery that was
so long In reaching Bingham has been
received and is beng placed where it
belongs. Mr.. Oren1 naturally feels
greatly elated with the present achieve
ments of this organization. and expects
the season to close upon production
of over one hundred per tent greater
than at the present time.
When asked about the latest reports
from the Nevada Douglas property OF
Yerington, Of which he likewise IS man
ager, Mr.. Orem stated that the general
average of the ores encountered last
week in the winze from the deep tunnel
was 1901 per cent. copper. This wih1e
is down 90 feet, and it is in ore fron
grassroots TO the present bottom. The
character of the orc is suIphide. and
looks extremely 6ne. The Hastings
shaft, a triple.eompartmeu5 working
being sent 10 depths, is breaking into
punches of orc that give promise of
cementing into fine body at any time.

FORE IGN MONEY IS
ACTIVE IN BINGHAM
Utah Bingham Company Is Sc.
cured and Operated by For
eign Capital.

An Interesting item in the life Of the
Bingham camp came TO the notice of
The Tribune Friday in the organization,
now operating liberal acreage Of
ground, known as tho Utah Bingham
Mining company, In spite Of the fact
that this organization has boen actively
engaged for almost q year in going TO
depths after its resources, absolutely
nothing has either appeared in print
or been known generally in local circles
aDout this company, its people and its
plans. 1t will be of interest to Tribune
readers to learn that the Utah Bingham
! company has within its lines something
IKE 200 acres, tho properties being
the Turngrcn, the o O'Reilly and other
groups in the heart Of the camp.
This property was gathered together
without any noise by the Bellows
Brothers, brokers of Springfield, Mass
This firm had behind il some extremely
strong financial associations in Berlin,
Frankfort, London and Paris. and the
properties wore purchased outright with
foreign capital from these cities. Upon
acquiring the ground, the owners went
to work to open up the resources, and
the company has been busy for nearly
year without any information becoming
known as to its movements. The COM
pany dld not court secrecy exactly, but
lnasmuch as there is no American cap
ital invested in the same, little was
learned about the company here. The
stock Is dealt in extensively in the
cities above mentioned.
At the present time the company is
letting contracts for machinery COM
mensurate with the developments, and
w. w. Bellows, one of the Bellows firm,
stated yesterday that the company
would begin making regular consigu-
ments TO the markets when the weather
conditions permitted the same TO be
done. The property presents tunnel
proposition exclusively. and six tunnels
are now being driven into the noun
tain. In a portion Of the group, tho
management is running into lead silver
and gold ores of splendid value, while
IN the deeper workings the sulphides OF
copper are being encountered. Mr.. Bel
lows rather reluctantly consented Fri
day TO give the above facts, being as
sured that whatever pertained TO Bing-
ham and its mines was of interest in
spite of the fact that no offering of the
company's stock had been made to
American investors.
The company has accomplished over
a mile of underground workings, and
the results of this earnest campaign
should begin demonstrating themselves
TO the entire satisfaction of the com
pany before the present season has
advanced far into history.
