TlNTlC MINING NOTES.
1etro Looking Good-Swansea Be
ginning to Move.

John Strang informs the Eureka Re
poretr that things are moving along nicely
at the retro. Eleven men are now work
ing on the property and drifting is being
carried on on the 500-foOt level Indica-
tons are such that Superintendent Strang
says there is every possibility of ship
ment being made in the near future.
The Utah County Power company is
rushing things along. The poles are now
in to point below the Star Consolidated
mine and within the next few DAYS il is
expected that the line will be down as far
as the Knight Smelter The very inclem-
ent weather during the early part of the
week retarded progress considerably.
Work was started last Tuesday at the
South Swansea with a force of fifteen
men. At present the work is confined to
making the necessary repairs to the boil
ers and machinery and the Reporter is
informed that as soon as everything is
got into good shape a much larger force
will be put on. The new electric pump
for the Swansea arrived last Tuesday.
The work of installing it is being pushed
rapidly forward.
George Wilson, chief engineer of the
American Smelling d Refining company,
left last Saturday for Salt Lake. While
here he spent two days looking over the
Eureka-Hill mine. his object being to as
certain what amount of silica is in the
Hill ore. SiliciOus ores are in great de-
mand for converter lining. He reports
that the ores in the property run very
high in silica some as high as 20 per cent
and left for the city very favorably i'm
pressed.
On the East Crown Point, A group of
ten claims situated between the east of
the Crown Point and joining the Yuma, a
campaign of active development has been
inaugurated. The gallows frame and in
fact all of the plant formerly used by the
East Tintic Consolidated Mining company
is being got ready for the work. They
started work last Wednesday and expect
to begin sinking very soon. Joseph Reece
has taken a contract to sink and timber
fifty feet in the shaft, the company to
furnish the timber. a burleiSh machine
will be used which will be driven by
steam. The company is in good financial
shape, having $1,000 in the treasury and
200. 600 shares of treasury stock. There
is some talk of listing it on the stock
hoard.

HORSESHOE MINE AND MILL

MOdena. May 1.-THE Gold Springs. Fay

ing carefully examined by experts and

FAY is being examined and resumption
of mining is likely to ensue at an early

initial developed property of that Nevada

owed by the greater ore shOwings of more
recently developed properties. and great

CONSOLIDATION
Lawson Connection With the
Scheme Expected to Become
a Disturbing Factor.

William B. Thompson and James Phil
lips, Jr, have resigned as president and
vice president, respectively, of the Copper
mines company. which is the $50, 900, 900
vehicle for the proposed consolidation of
the Utah Copper company, Nevada Con-
soiidated and Cumberland Ely copper
companies. They have been succeeded by
l. e. Johns as president and H F.
knObloch as vice president, SAYS the
Boston News Bureau. These are dummy
officers. as are all the directors of the
Coppermines company. Mr.. Johns is a
curb dealer, and was formerly with HAY
den, Stone 4, Co. s New York office Mr.
KnObloch is secretary to Mr.. Thompson.
A leading interest in these companies
says;
There is no doubt in my mind as to
the ultimate consolidation of these prop
critics. but l do not believe that the
consolidation can ever be brought about
through the Lawson connection. The
latter is apparently an unhOly alliance,
brought about by Samuel Untermeyer and
the GuSgenheims, but already the latter
are beginning to see the effect of the
Lawsonian connection, and it is not a
very pleasant situation for them. This
does not set away from the fact, how
ever, that Lawson has an option on the
Guggenheim coppers in the Exploration
company treasury, which option has
about five months yet to run.
The whole matter may be held up
until these Lawson options expire, but
Lawson IS not man to sit idly by and
see valuable OptlOnS go by the board. The
whole trouble is that Lawson did not
get the support in the Yukon flotation
he anticipated. If he had, the entire
100000 Yukon shares would have been
sold, and he would have been in a posi-
ton TO have taken hold of the bigger
copper job, and, in the meantime he
would have cleaned up over $4,000 The
trouble was that previous to the public
offering, about 100000 shares of Yukon
stock were distributed privately at s. and
$3.50 per share, and this stock Lawson
had to take back in the open market
Yet in the face of having to take back
this stock about 100000 shares of Yukon
stock was distributed among about 1900
