DURING LONG CLOSEDOWN
WATER LEAVES MINE

1t has just developed that an interest
ing state of affairs exists at the Silver
King Consolidated company's property at
Park City. When the mine closed down
last April about 800 gallons of water per
minute was making on the 10-fOot level.
A portion of this was diverted to an open
fissure that absorbed F. From the 500
down to the L. 200 level enough more water
was encountered to make it necessary to
do some tanking while the shaft was be-
ing sunk deeper though there was not
enough to bother. When the work of de-
velopment was stopped the water on the
500 level was run into the shaft which, ii
was supposed. would gradually fill up,
possibly for the greater portion of the
l 800 feet TO the surface
Two or three days ago II. R. Mcdonald.
the Waterman at the property, and the
old superintendent, decided he would
climb down the ladders in the manway
and determine to what height in the shaft
the water had raised. He would not have
been surprised to find that it was within
three or four hundred feet of the top, any
way, but in this idea he was mistaken.
He went down and down without reach
ing the water-tO the 500, to the LEGO, to
the / 200-fOOt level. He was then too tired
to go deeper, so he tried to get at the
water level below by sounding No water
developed, so far as he could tell by drop
ping stones and he reached the conclusion
that. through some means or another, the
works had been drained from below.

than the Consolidated and it is the only
property that cuts close to the Consoll-
dated shaft with its workings, so the
inference is drawn that it must be that
some channel or another connecting with
the King Consolidated, has drawn off the
water. 1t therefore follows that, when the
King company is again placed on its feet
financially. as 1t will be during the COM
ing six months, work can be resumed
without the expense of unwatering the
mine and without having to resort TO
pumping to keep it open.

SIK-T0N BOULDER
BLOWN OUT OF SHAT 7

Once in a great while combination OF
favorable circumstances results in a
phenomenal or freak shot in some mine,
such as we have TO describe, says Mines
and Minerals for December.
Shaft No. q of the American Zinc, Lead
& Smelling companys property at Webb
City. Mo. was being sunk by Contractor
George Burress. At a depth of 100 feet
below the surface, eight holes, six feet
deep. were drilled from the outer edge
of the shaft toward the stump cut holes.
They were loaded with eighty-seven 11sXS
sticks about thirty-six bounds) of Forcite
gelatine powder.
This explosion resulted in hurting a
boulder about ten feet out of the shaft 5
mouth a total lift of 10 feet and landed
it on the surface about twenty-five feet
to one side The size of this boulder IS
about 4x4x5 and weighs 1852 pounds or
about six tons.
The size of the shaft up which it was
blown is feet by I feet in the clear,
cribbed with 2x6s laid flat. Near the top
of the shaft is a scratch on the cribbing
a fraction of an inch deep and about four
feet long The grazing of-the boulder at
this point in its upward flight was doubt
less responsible for the curving Of its
trajectory from the perpendicular 10 one

SIOUX CONSOLIDATED
REPORTED TO HAVE STRIKE

1t was reported around yesterday aft
ernOon that the Sioux Consolidated shaft
workings at Tintic had dropped into a
loose, open formation and the belief was
that. if ore had not been encountered.
everything was favorable for il. Orders
for the stock came pouring in and brOk-
ers were hustling all the afternoon to
execute them.
The Sioux Consolidated is located on the
south end of the Colorado and there has
always been a question whether the Colo
RADIO fissure would extend into that
ground. When it was reported the other
day that a strike had been made in the
joint shaft being sunk by the Colorado,
Crown Point and Iron Blossom companies
it was said that 1t had been found that
either a spur from the Colorado vein cut
through in the direction of the Crown
Point. Later il was claimed that fissure
had been cut and that it had evidently
split, a portion going south in the direc-
ton of the Iron Blossom and the other
spur east toward the Crown Point.
Since then nothing has been heard of
what really did happen, though the ac-
ton of Crown Point stock makes IL look
as though favorable developments of some
kind had taken place. Now similar infor-
nation that is, information lacking IN
authenticity. is coming out about devel-
opments in the Sioux Consolidated and the
stock of that company now holds the
front rank in popularity.
1T is to be hoped that they have all
got il" said a broker during the after
noon. but there is vet no news that
should cause excitement from either or
them"

Mines and Mining Stocks

mines close down and l cannot say yet
that they will; neither can l say that
they won't"
This is the statement made by Mr..
Keith after a trip to New York, where.
with General Manager Thomas Kearns.
he has been on business connected with
the great mining enterprises with which
both are prominently identified.
There is undoubtedly a large accumu-
latiOn of lead" continued Mr.. Keith,
that must be worked off before we can
look for much Improvement, If any, IN
the price of that metal. 1 believe. how
ever, that within a few months we shall
see the price of both silver and lead re-
turn TO somewhere near their normal posi-
tiOns. In the meantime it is question
of whether we can afford to take the
great losses that present prices entail"
Asked what the prospects were for the
building of the proposed big smelter by
the s1O.0OOOOO Miners Smelling company.
the corporation organized by T. A.
Heinze and others several months ago,
Mr.. Keith expressed the conviction that
il would be built as planned he SAID
that Mr.. Heinze was working hard. and
everything. he thought. would work out
all right in the near future.
And whether Mr.. HeinZe'S undertaking
materiahzes as planned or not, said
Mr.. Keith. cit is my Judgment that an
Independent smelter will be built, any
how"
Of these statements by Mr.. Keith. His
company is the biggest producer OF lead
silver ore in the state of Utah and the
corporation owning the mines is one uf
the most powerful While Mr.. Keith did
not pretend to discuss Anything in detail.
no other conclusion can be drawn from
his statement than that the Silver King
company. with other powerful interests
in the mining field of this state, are get
ting their heads together and figuring out
a plan to save to themselves at least Il
portion of the legitimate profit of mining
That Mr.. Heinze is with them, that
they are with Mr.. Heinze. looks certain.
And it seems just as certain that If bet
ter prices for the metals do not quickly
prevail there will bs a cessation of ship
ments until such time as the change does
come.
The settling basis for lead in the local
market has been fixed for this week at
So 80 per 100 pounds. This is &c lower
than It was last week If the producer
got the So. so it would not be so bad but
the deductions made by the smelters are
such that, even before the treatment
charge is figured against him. there is
less than 80 per 100 pounds coming. and
that for only 90 per cent of the metal in
the ore.

SALT LAKERS
MAKE A STRIKE
In Doing Assessment Work on
Yerlngton Property Fine
One Is Tapped.

About a year ago the Yerington Knob
Hill syndicate, composed of twenty well
known operators of this city, was formed
for the purpose of buying for cash a
group Of five claims adjoining the Yer
ington lronsideS company's property.
which is located in the north end of the
Mason Valley district. 1t cost the crowd
$4,000, or $500 each, TO acquire the ground
and after the purchase was made nothing
more was done with the proposition I'M
I'll recently. Then the little syndicate as
Sessed its MEMBERS S25 each to do the
assessment work on the five claims
That has just been finished and work
has ceased again for the present, but that
is not all. Yesterday morning the men
who have been doing the work appeared
in town with samples of fine copper ore
that was struck in doing the work. There
are three or four assures, according to
report, and in one of these there is be
tween three and four feet of high grade
copper ore that will pay to ship any
where. This has STIRRED the bunch up a
little and the probabilities now are that
early in the coming year an energetic
campaign of real development will be in
augurated. The men composing the syn
dictate are all well to do and there is lit
tie probability that any outsiders will
be allowed to break into the game. 1t
will be another Nevada Hills sort of
prODOSitiOn.

GRIMES CREEK
PLACER MINING
Boise Operators Ready to
Wash Lots of Gravel on
Boise Basin Bars.

The Grimes Creek Placer Mining COM
pauy. which owns 1,10O acres of valuable
placer ground on Grimes and Muddy
creeks in the Boise basin, has expended
nearly $4,000 on bitches and other work
preparatory to taking out gold during
the next year. The ditch which takes
water from the head of Grimes creek will
be eleven miles in length. Seven miles
or II have been completed and the bal
ance being light work will be- finished
early in the spring. The water will be
taken through "a mountain, well up to-
ward the summit, through a tunnel $50
feet long. The tunnel will be finished
within thirty days, says the Boise States
The ground contains pay gravel from
two to forty feet thick and some of it
is very rich. 1t is believed, Judging from
test pits that have been sunk, that it
viii average Is cents per cubic yard. As
part OF the necessary equipment the COM
pany now has 1000 feet of S-inch pipe on
the ground and has purchased 900 feet of
20-incn steel pipe and 200 feet of 15-inch
pipe that IS now being freighted from this
city to the point where it will be used
The pipe Will all be on the ground this
winter, Mr. Joslin, one of the officers of
the company, stated, and il is the inten-
ton to have six giants at work as soon
as water is Obtainable in the spring The
water In the pipe line will have a fall of
from $50 to 800 feet and will enable the
ell in a few hours.
The company. MIR. Joslin said. has m
stalled a saWmill and they are now get
ging out lumber for theira fumes and
sluice boxes, also for what buildings
they may need. The most of the men
working on the ditch were discharged
last Saturday to await the coming of
warmer weather. The ground is frozen
quite hard now in that section and earth
work is very difficult. They will, how
ever, be put on again as soon as the
weather will permit.
In cutting the ditch a few weeks ago,
Ezra Howard. who was in charge of the
work, discovered a ledge of high-grade
free milling ore. 1t assayed sos. IS IN
gold and may prove a bonanza. Five
claims have been located on the ledge
and it will be thoroughly prospected next
spring. If the ore body proves as large
as it appears to be. Mr.. Joslin said, it will
be opened up and mill installed next
season.
The company officers and principal
owners of the property are Ezra How
ard, president, and 1. V. Howard, secTe-
tary and treasurer. They are all resi-
dents of Boise and have offices in the
Falk block. Felix Carpenter OF Garden
Valley is also interested in the company
and has charge of the placer work, ne
having had many years of experience.
