 Old Dominion.
 Operations continue on a large scale and construction work is progressing well. Two furnaces which sprung leaks were closed down . cay and half last week for repairs. They are again running and the production of copper is normal. Owing to the heavy output of ore from the company's mines, shipments from the Arizona Commercial have been suspended until the ore congestion at the Old Domin- ion works is relieved No. 3 crosscut on the 14th level has gone through sul- phide vein No. 2, which was found 10 be thirty feet wide; No. 1 vein in this crosscut is thirty-ive feet wide and the ore in both veins is high grade. The company has decided to install a .asge electric plant at c shaft to sup
 Jiy all the electric power required and Or. l.. D. Ricketts and an electrical ca Cineer are expected here within the next week to complete the plans Tor | this important addition to the equip ment.

 vertical shaft A raise has been start
 ed from the third level, 260 feet west of the incline shaft Raising will be
 gin from the 4th level as soon as the proper point is reached about eighty fleet further in the crosscut. Sinking will be started to connect with the raise as soon as the new hoisting machinery lis received The company now has twenty teams on the road to the lsmelter, shipments averaging seventy tons daily.

 The visit here of W. G. Rice, secre I tary and treasurer of the company, anC
 the plans agreed upon for deeper de tvelopment have had a good effect oI
 local sentiment regarding this splen did property. Sinking was resume' yesterday on the Great Eastern clain l and the shaft is to be carried dowl 250 feet further to . depth correspond ing with the 500-foot level of the Blacl Hawk, at which depth the Black flaw lode will be crosscut and a drift rul 1 to the east to determine the best loca ton for a three-compartmen workin shaft. which will be opened by simu ltaneously sinking and raising. Preps rations are also being made to sink winze from the west drift on the Blac Oxide where the appearance of tn ledge is very encouraging. This drif shows marked improvement and ther is now considerable carbonate dissem mated through the iron and bunche of ore in the floor of the drift. Tn winze will be sunk as rapidly as pos 1 sible and work on the drift continue ! at the same time. This drift has sti nearly 450 feet to go t1 reach the eas end line of the Carrie claim of tn United Globe company and as indica ed by the strong outcrop of the ledg this drift should encounter a good or i, shoot. The north crosscut on tn Limestone claim cut the ledge thirt feet fro mthe shaft and drift is no' l being run east in iron showing som ! copper The Limestone shaft is to D sunk deeper and 1t is the intention ( l the management to later sink on tn | Red Oxide, the eastern extension ( l the Black Oxide claim.
