RAWHIDE WILLING TO TAKE
FIFTY-D0LLAR ORE NOW

Rawhide, New. April PA. w. Coote
of the Firm of Codd & Co. of Goldfield
owners of the Last Chance hill in Raw
hide, IS at present in Boston, from which
point he reports having concluded a deal
with a large eastern brokerage house
which places that company on a sound
financial footing. Probably no part of
the RaWhlde district presents a buster as
peet than does Last Chance hill. Seven
leases are working actively and no seven
leases in the district have brighter pros
poets than those on the Codd < CoOte
property. A. w. Scott, well known
mining man of Africa, Mexico and lat
terly of the Cobalt company, is spending
thousands of dollars in sinking a shaft,
prosecuting and drifting on the old Nor
riSSey lease, which he purchased some
six weeks ago. 1t is apparent that the
whole hill is a mass of milling ore in
termixed with small seams of high grade.
Company work by the Red Top Mining
company on the block of ground recently
Mining company Is progressing rapidly,
the shaft having arrived at a depth of
100 feet. At the seventy-fOot level the
character of the ground indicated close
proximity to an ore body. At the ninety
foot level this ore body was encountered.
a ledge four feet in width giving assay
returns of SIS to the ton. 1t is the in
tention of the Red Top company, which
is controlled by w. F. Bond & Co, of
San Francisco, to drift on this ledge from
the 1O0-foot level. and this company should
in the very near future become one of the
regular producers of the camp.
President Seamans of the Bluff-HOod-
lum Leasing & Mining company, which
is operating a block on Zeb Kendalfs
Bluff claim adjoining the Last Chance,
is in Los Angeles, and reports that he
has been successful in financing this conf
pany to an extent which will enable it
to crowd development to finish. At the
1OO-fOot level a shaft is passing through
a body of so ore and station has been
cut at this point with the object in view
of drifting on this ore body to deter
mine its full extent
Work was started this week on the

MINING STOCK EXCHANGE.
Week Closes With Prices a Little Soft
and Trading Lively.

Following four days of advancing
prices, the local mining stock market
showed signs of topheaviness on Friday
and it would have surprised no one had
real weakness characterized the trading
yesterday. Such a condition did not de-
Yelop, however, and the probabilities are
that tomorrow will see change for the
better again. The extreme weakness Of
silver is having its effect on the market
and the mines that are now shipping and
those when are preparing to resume pro-
duction will not be anxious to market
much ore unless the price of the white
metal shows a change for the better be-
fore long. 1t will be sixty days yet before
the shelters, other than the trust works
are ready to receive ores in quantity. and
it is just as well that such is the case
because that will allow more time for
the price of metals to recover some

lieve that stocks ought to be bought to

INLAY MINES
FINE SHOWING
Judge Powers Is Greatly I'M
pressed With Disclosures
Made at Property.

President George w. Morgan and
Judge o. Powers of the INLAY COM
pany returned yesterday morning from
a trip of inspection to the company's
mines in Humboldt county, Nevada.
While Mr.. Morgan makes frequent
trips to the property. it is nearly eight
cen months since Judge Powers was
last at camp. That the changes which
nave taken place in that time were al
most bewildering TO him, the judge
frankly admitted.
Il am almost afraid to talk about il"
said Judge Powers. 1t seems to me
that at last 1 am really identi-
field with a genuine mine. The
experience is one with which
have been such a total stranger
during my career that it is hard
TO get used to it, it is hard to believe
that such is really the case, though
the evidence appears to be conclusive
and indisputable. There is over a car
load of fine ore now at the railroad
station and two more at the mine wait
ing to be hauled. Up to this time the
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1908-04-26
Mines and Mining Stocks

ore has been moved only as rapidly as
the company team could do it. Coal
would be hauled to the mine and ore
loaded back, but l understand that
other teams will soon Sbe secured and
the ore will be moved faster Superin-
tendent Turner says he is now ready
TO send out a carload a week and judS
ing from the appearance of the mine, |
should say he will have no trouble in
doing that, with haulage facilities"
Aside from the remarkably fine ore
showing in the property, Judge Powers
states that the one thing which i'm
pressed him was the workmanlike
manner in which the mine had been
opened and the splendid machinery and
equipment with which the property
had been provided. Most of the ore
now ching mined, the judge says, is
coming from points on and above the
140-foot level, though ore is exposed
and ready for mining in no less than
five different places on the $50 or bot
tom level of the mine. More ore than
waste is broken, taking all parts of
the mine for it, and that is an unusual
condition In most mines.
In addition to the splendid showing
of highgrade ore. Judge Powers states
that a world of fine milling ore is be-
ing developed in the mine. In the
north drift on the 140-foot level twenty
feet of $40 ore has been passed through
and fifteen feet beyond the face of the
drift is now entering the high-grade
mineral zone that goes with the white
quartz. In the south drift on the same
level One-third of the face was i'm high
grade ore when he left the mine, and
the superintendent expressed the opin-
ion that it would be only a few days
till he would have a great body of rich
ore opened there.
Judge Powers says that connections
with the old incline workings and the
new shaft have been made, and that
the mine is so well kept up that it looks
like business to inspect any portion of
it. While the company owns thirty
five claims, with rich mineral show
ings in every one of them. the work
done to date has only developed ore in
one. What will happen when the cam
paign of development is brOadened and
other claims are made to disclose their
riches can only be imagined, but the
management of the company is san
guine that many other claims will be
found just as rich, if not richer, than
the one that is now making the mine.

HUGE SAMPLES
FROM BINGHAM
Hundred Pound Chunks of Ore
Give Idea of Strike in
Central Standard.

III you are looking for evidence of the
character of ore that is now being
mined from the lower tunnel workings
of the Bingham Central-Standard prop
critics at Bingham, examine the great
LOO to 150-pound chunks of the rock
that w. E. Hubbard has on exhibition
at his offices. 1t does not REQUIRE a
second look and lift to convince the
most skeptical that the real goods are
being mined, and that the ledge must
be powerfully strong one to produce
such stuff
The ore carries splendid values in
lead and silver, with about per cent
copper and some gold. Drifts both
ways from the point where the tunnel
cut the vein are now being crowded
along, and ore is being mined for ship
ment from each drift. Fifty feet back
of this ledge a remarkably strong cop
per vein has been opened, but no effort
will be made to ship from it as long
as the market for the red metal holds
so low. The ore in this vein averages
better than II per cent copper, and is
an asset that will be made to contrib
ute literally to dividend earnings by
and by.
The tunnel is being pushed ahead for
the Lodges that have proved so highly
productive in old workings near the
surface in the past, and it will not be
many weeks till connections are made
with the first of these. A short time ago,
when the ledge was struck from which
fine ore is now being mined, the state
ment was made that Bingham Central
Standard and Bingham Standard Cop
per stocks were worth more money
than they were selling for. In the Ian
guage of the gambler, the talent cop
pered the bet" and put the price back
a few cents a share, probably for the
purpose of trying to shake out some
cheap stock Holders refused to be
caught, however, and now that a cam
paign of production is to be inaugu-
rated, everybody is hustling to get the
stock back that was used in the effort
to break the market If intrinsic merit
is going to count for anything, Bling
ham Central-Standard, which holds
control of Bingham Central and Bing-
ham Standard stocks, will soon be SELL
ing at 81. and Standard will go to soc.

SILVER A BAD ACTOR
DURING THE WEEK

Silver has dropped back 11sc per ounce
during the past week, the quotation yes
terday being 5S1ac. 1t has not been that
low since~the 31st day of December last,
when it was quoted al the same price.
On Dec. q it was quoted at 521zc. The
highest point the metal has attained this
year was on Jan. :. when it was quoted
at 5S9sc The day before it was selling
at 557sc, the sudden jump, which was only
temporary, being caused by short cover
ing in London. Three days later ii was
down to 5424c. On the 10th of February
it touched $3.50, but it has not been any
where near that level since the middle
of February.
For the past several weeks there has
been very little buying by the govern
ment for subsidiary coinage purposes and
there is nothing in the situation, either
at home or abroad, to indicate that high
er prices will come in the near future.
