Salt Lake Herald, speaks in
glowing terms of the present
outlook and future possibilities
of this mine. Mr.. Webber is a
man recognized as a power in
the mining world, and when
such men as he speak so
favorably of a property
we are not surprised that
investors become anxious to buy
the stock.
Ore shipments have just COM
menced. The facilities for trans
portation at hand are entirely
inadequate to handle the output,
and it but remains for the COM
pletion of the spur of the San
Pedro around the mountain,
which has been promised, to
make of the Prince a dividend
payer Of merit.

Prince Con. Stock
Soaring Upward

The stock of the Prince Consoli-
dated Mining Company is becom-
ing very active on the Salt Lake
market. Recent developments
in the mine have attracted the
mining public, and they are ca
ger to buy. The latest market
reports received here quote
Prince Consolidated at LAP 1-2
bid and LAT 1-2sasked.
The conditions of this famous
property certainly justify a rea-
dy sale of stock. Each shift is
bringing to light new discoveries
and it is fast becoming the most
prominent mineral producer in
the Ely district.

Connection

Nevada Utah Properties In Shape for
Shipping $50 Tons Daily = More
Cars Ordered.

Connections were made be-
tween the Day and Onon lago
mines at Jack Rabbit over
week ago. This work has been
under way for some months, and
some of the speediest drifting
was done in the course of this
work ever known in this section.
An average was made of over
four hundred feet per month,
and the tunnel, which is COM
pleted, is a great credit to the
engineering ability of Manager
]. B. Gaskill and Superintendent
Wickes.
The shaft on the Onondago
was sunk over one hundred and
sixty feet, giving it a depth
of eight hundred and seventy
feet. The drift now cannects
this mine with the Day at the
900-foot level. This will greatly
facilitate the handling of the

dip toward the shaft, so the
probilities are that cross cut of
one hundred feet or such mat
ter at the 300 foot level of the
main shaft will reach the fissure
mentioned"
Superintendent Christensen
stated last night that the COM
pany would reach the 1OO-foot
mark vito the double compart-
ment shaft tonight, and that it
was the policy of the company to
continue another 100 feet before
prosecuting is indulged in. It's
the purpose of the company to
make the other hundred feet be-
fore the first day of January.

will be employed to accomplish
this work.

large tonnage which the Nevada
Utah expects to ship from these
mines. All the ore will be taken
out through the Onondago shaft,
thus doing away with the aerial
tram heretofore in use.
About all the details have been
perfected looking toward the
movement of a large tonnage.
and the management expects to
commence shipping early next
month. Plans are being laid to
handle at least one hundred and
fifty tons daily, and in order that
this may be done four 15-ton ca
pacity cars have been ordered,
which will be added to the equip
ment of the narow-gauge. The
Day mine has an immense ton
mage blocked out, and now that
the mine has been placed on a
proper working basis, we may
expect to see much ore in daily
transit to the smelters.

Contract for 200
Feet of Sinking

Mccormack and Salisbury
are making very satisfactory
headway with their contract on
the property of the Phoebe
Mines company. A shaft of
about two hundred feet is alrea-
dy on the property, and the con-
tract calls for an additional depth
of two hundred feet. During
the time the mine was lying idle
a great amount of water accu-
mulated, and it is taking some
time to clear this, but it is ex'
pected the shaft will be in a con-
dition to continue sinking very
shortly.
A gasoline hoist has been In
stalled, and in fact the entire
work is placed on a basis tol
rapid and substantial advance

PiOche Mohawk
Making Good
Fine Ledge Cut at One
Hundred Seventy Feet

Recent development work on
the property of the Pioche- Mo-
hawk company has brought forth
most encouraging results. Con-
tractors have been busily en-
gagged for some months past in
sinking shaft on the property,
which has now reached a depth
of about ITO feet. In the last
few feet a large ledge has been
encountered through which min
eral bearing rock abounds. 1t is
of the character that is a sure
indication of mineral in abun-
dance in this section, and it is
expected by the management to
break into the ore body with
each round of shots.
The formation on this property
and the immense assures and
lodges which traverse it from
end to end are admirable indica-
tions of a great wealth producer
within its confines.
1t is the present intention tc
| oop+ip,,o +bo Cho e. to a Japtb O1
two hundred feet, after which
a drift will be run to tap the
ledge in different sections of thu
claim. This work will be rushed
to completion with all possible
speed, and its result cannot b,
other than the addition of an
other shipper in that rich min
eral portion of the Ely district

Golden Prince On
Working Basis
Ten Men Employed In Sink
ing a Two Compartment
Shaft.

In an interview with the Salt.
Lake Herald, Manager Geo. E.
Coke of the Golden Prince, who
is now in that city, has the fol-
lowing to say of the operations
of his company:
I'VE are now in shape for a
full winters campaign of de-
velopment, and a force of ten
men will be constantly employ
ed. The property of our COM
pany adjoins the Prince Consol-
idated on the north and lies be-
tween that mine and the Abe
Lincoln group, just purchased
by Webber, Kirby and Hodson.
Recently while grading out
for a road, at a point 187 feet
east of the new shaft, we uncov'
cred 25 foot fissure. An aver
age sample taken clear across
the vein, gave returns of Il
ounces silver and three dollar

team and buggy to different par
ties in town. The figure he
asked for the outfit was so low
that it aroused the suspicion of
the parties, and they refused to
buy. Upon being questioned as
to where he obtained possession
of the outfit, Turley claimed that
he had purchased them in Lara
mie, Wyoming, and that he had
driven them through to this
place.
Deputy Fitzgerald received in
structions from the Ely authori-
ties, and it is expected that an
officer will be here soon to take
possession of the team and re.
turn Turley also.

Last week this column sounded |
the key note of the market when
it is stated that the upward
movement in mining shares had
started and would continue.
During the week such stocks as
Goldfeld Con. Florence, Nevada
Con-, Cumberland Ely, Miami
Copper, Nevada Utah, Nipissing
and others of the leading Cobalt
stocks have shown strength at
advancing prices. Goldfeld Con.
is selling above 6 IL as against
6 1-8. Florence is strong at 4
bid. Nevada Con. is around Is
as against 16 1-2. Cumberland
Ely is again above 8. Miami has
crossed II. Nevada-Utah is
above 3. Nipissing has touched
10.
The advance in these stocks
has only started. The above
stocks, with La Rose, Kerr Lake,
Daisy, Combination Fraction and
Colorado of Tintic, were men,
toned in last weeks review of
the market. They are the best
and and safest of the American
mining issues. Florence, La
Rosa, Nipissing and Kerr Lake
are dividend payers. Goldfield
Con-, Nevada Con-, Cumberland
Ely and Colorado will be large
dividend payers in few months.
Miami is a certain dividend earn

Ore Showing .
On the National

In the course of the assessment
work now being prosecuted by
Eugene Goodrich and Chas. D.
Osborne on claims owned by
them in the Highland district,
some fine lead ore has been un-
covered. These claims are ad-
joining the property of the
Mendha-Nevada company, and
the owners are confident that
they have a continuation of the
great ore bodies existing in the
Mendha property.
Later reports from the proper
ty state that the disclosures
make by the last few shifts are
beyond the most sanguine expec
tations. The ore is now at leas
two feet in thickness, and it
full extent has not as yet beel
determined. Two average sam
pies taken across the vein yielde,
values running 81 and 81 ounce
silver and "a and Al per cent lea
respectively.
Five men are now employed o
the ground, and the manner
which the mine is respondin
iustifes a thorough exploration
