Ida DISTRICT IS NOW
SHOWING UP sPLENDIDLY
Especial Correspondence

Captain w. W. Webb is in Goldheld
from Ida, where he is developing his
properties, several of which he is de-
cidedly proud. Two Of the groups
owned by Captain Webb are under bond
to Goldfeld capitalists who are prepar-
ing for extended work.
Speaking of his neighbors the captain
says that the Ida Queen is looking re
markably good, breaking seven feet of
high grade milling ore. The Queen is
under bond to Philadelphia capitalists,
who have installed a l0-stamp mill,
equipped with Whitley concentration and
iFrue-v MANNERS. The stamps will be drop
ping in a few days and more gold will
be added to the production of Esmer-
aida county.
Several other properties in the Ida
district are working with small forces
and some contemplate putting on gaso-
line hoists.

GOOD STRIKE
IS MADE AT CHAFEY

places in the camp. Practically all of
the ~leasers, of which there are many,
are all getting good values and are de-
veloping on a big scale. Jack Bishop,
one of the early arrivals in the district,
is sacking ore that runs as high as $3.50
to the ton. Jack says this will do until
he gets something better. He expects
to make one OF the richest shipments
sent out from Chafey in a short time.
Two new leases nave been let ON the
south end of the Gold Belt claim. The
Gold Belt lies between the Monroe and
Mayfower groups, and it is believed it
will develop into a rich producer when
properly opened up. Several leasers
have also been let during the past week
on the Moliie claim. The ledge on this
property has been opened to a depth OF
80 feet by a shaft. The ledge shows a
width varying from five to eight feet,
all of which is a good milling quality.
However, some very high grade speci-
! mems have been taken out and it stands
a good chance of becoming a close rival
to the famous Mayfower. The 'Mollie
is located about a mile south of the
Black Hole.
The Mammoth King is also undergo
ing extensive development. A crosscut
tunnel has been driven for a distance of
125 feet, the object being to tap the
vein which extends from the Mollie ad-
joining ON the north. Work is being
rushed with all vigor and it is thought
the vein will be cut in a few days. The
Mammoth King was formerly owned by
Billy Nelson, but is nov under bond and
lease to j. J.. Coll Of Loveloek.
Mr.. Quincy, vino is operating in the
south end of the district, is rapidly
bringing Ell Rancho property to the
front. Mr.. Quincy was among the first
in the district to uncover high grade,
having found s $1,000 ore at the surface
on his property. He has been driving a
tunnel to tap the vein at a greater
depth. Some two weeks ago he eneoun.
tered the ledge, whioh, after beingscut,
showed a width of twelve feet, all of
which is a good milling grade. A drift
is now being run to the north in the
hope of locating the high grade shoot.
chafey is growing rapidly and build
ings are going up as fast as the lumber
supply will permit. Several new bust
ness houses have been opened up and
altogether the camp is in better eondi-
tion than ever before.

When the return of President JAS.
NJ. Russell, of the Great Western, a
series of betterments has been inaugur-
ated for that property, not only for its
development but for ore extraction and
reduction as well. And it is under
stood that this movement is only the be-
ginning of improvements and innova'
lions for everything of Importance In
the camp, says the Hornsilver Herald.
1t has been announced that the great
bulk of the free milling ore in the
Great Western will be sent to the big
mill at Millers for reduction.
This decision has been reached after
considerable testing of ores by the syt-
tenn of treatment in vogue in that mill,
and an examination of the ore bodies
in the mine by the mill management.
1t is stated that the recovery OF the
precious metals will be paid for up to %
per cent of the assay values. This seems
TO be an exceedingly good guarantee
and the process of reduction must DE
verv thorough to maintain it.
Test lots of Great Western milling
ores have also been sen to San Fran
cisco for trials, which are not as ye'
completed. Howard Russell, secretsf'
of the Great Western company, has
oone to the city to be present and con
fer with the metallurgists in their IN
vestigations.
The large quantity of milling ores IN
the mine justifes the most exhaustive
and instructive tests possible, FOR II
seems improbable that this company
will continue to pay freight and Wagon
haul for any great length of time. Ih'
combined freight rate would alone
nrove to be a handsome profit, henct
the opinion is expressed that not many
months will elapse before the Urea
vuostern will have a mill of its own a.
the mine and pay the cost OF trans
nortation of ores to its stockholders IL
the shape of dividends.
However. it seems the present moV'

Chafey, New, Sept. Without
question one of the richest and biggest
strikes known to modern mining in this
country has been uncovered in the
Chafey property. In recent develop
ment work a ledge measuring fully nine
feet wide and carrying values that will
average $103 from wall to wall was un.
covered. Great excitement among the
mining fraternity prevails and from
every indication it now looks as though
Chafev would sooner or later be without
a peer in the production of the precious
metals.
Some ten days ago Mr.. Chafey com
menced drifting both to north and south
from the shaft sunk at the portal of the
tunnel. In the south drift very few feet
had been run before the ledge com
meneed to widen and when your cor
respondent visited the "glory hole'' the
vein, by careful measurement, showed
a width of nine feet and carried the
sensational average of SOB in the vel
low metal to the ton. Not only do the
drifts from the shaft show high grade
bnt in the tunnel, the wines and in the
bottom of the shaft remarkable discov
cries are being made.
A vein in the tunnel is growing larger
and now shows a width of nine feet and
careful sampling gives the high average
return of $500 across the entire face OF
the ledge. Mr.. Chafey has n number u
men at work exploring the ledge along
the surface and is getting results fal
beyond his expectations. In a cut norts
of the shaft the ledge shows a width oil
81 feet and at another point farther or
the ledge measures nine feet. Nine hun
dred feet south of the now famou'

auire additional hosting facilities, and
also IN the score of economy On air
compressor, for the double parpose of
providing ventilation and the operation
of machine drills. All of which arc be.
ing arranged, so it is announced.
These improvements AMI extensions
together with the gratifying increased
ore extraction will cause .he employ.
ment of more men, increase the payroll
and aid the t.wn and district.
The development of the past week IN
the Great Northern underground has
been a repetition of many previous
weeks, a steady extension of ore area
and increase of reserve, the shoot to the
east proving to be a most magnificent
body of ore both in high grade shipping
and milling values. The more work
done the greater the mine shows up.
Developing Huge Vein
The huge vein which cuts the forma-
tion about three miles from the Nevada
Empress and about ten miles from
Bonnie Glare, is being developed vigor-
ously. There are four companies own
inc locations ON this vein, which crops
prominently for several miles. The
Granite Mountain company has the
deepest vertical workings, the main
workings having a depth of 800 feet,
which with its branch workings, expose
ore shoots 40 feet in width in places.
Silver King
Depth is being attained steadily In
the main shaft of the Silver King, the
17O-foot point having been reached
during the week. The formation has
become much firmer and more regular
and generally of better appearance
than nearer surface. Sinking will be
continued until 200 feet of depth has
been gained, when prosecuting will be
started.
The management being anxious t.
push development with all possible
sneed, has secured a gasoline hois'
which will be placed up on the property
which will be installed at once. IN
fact everything will be done to ex'
pedite work and hasten ore production
Extension Claim

Cottrell quietly uncovered two veins on
their claim, the Extension, which II

made would be announced rs a "grea'

respects. but chiefly because 1t is real,

SEARCHLIGHT MINES ARE
SHOWING UP SPLENDIDLY

freighter estimated the weight of the
new outfit, including considerable lum-
Der, at about 25 tons.
The opening gun of the season has
been fred by the Searchlight Parallel,
says the eSarchlight News. This com
pany has secured a lease on the Cyrus
Noble mill and is running through its
ore dumps preparatory to resuming
operations underground.
President Il. f. Lewis is here giving
his personal attention TO the present
operations, which are under the direc-
tion Of Superintendent T. d. Forney.
The mill is in charge of y. l.. Woodman.
The ore which is now being worked
came from the Elvira and the Birdie
shafts and was all taken in the process
of doing straight development. 1t is
estimated that there is fully acc tons
on the two dumps which repeated tests
have shown to have a valne ranging
from $50 to $50 a ton.
During the first several days Of run
ming cleanups have been made every
two hours. These haze shown results
fully up TO expectations. \ satisfae-
tory saving is being made on the plates,
and in addition to the tailings are being
carefully banked for future use.
The estate of the Parallel is located
in the main mineral belt, Just west OF
the town and adjoining that Of the
Santa Fe on the west. The Elvira shaft
has 200 feet of ground ready to stope,
while the Birdie has over one hundred.
Some higher grade ore, which has been
taken from the Birdie and sacked for
shipment, is also being included in this
mill run.
w. W. Hurt, general manager of the
New York-Searchlight, has returned
from an extended absence, spent for the
most part on the Atlantic coast. He
~nounc that he is to start up work
Immediately.
Right off the real Mr.. Hurt has given
a contract calling for 200 feet Of cross
cutting on the 200-foot level of the
Water Spout. An equal distance will
be run both north and south from the
shaft.
f. Stanley Eddy, president of the
Eddy Machinery company. of Los An
geles, arrived yesterday for the pur-
pose of preparing plans and specifca-
tions for the new equipment. Just
improvements will be made is not given
out, other than they will include every
thing necessary for the operation of the
property on a large and economical
scale.
Mr.. Hurt has let a contract calling
for the sinking Of the Golden Dipper
shaft down to water level, estimated at
around 200 feet, following which lateral
work will be done.
The Golden Dipper adjoins the Red
Cliff on the west and the New York
S~earchlight on the east. 1t has always
been a particular pet of Mr.. Hurt's-a
little nest egg, and he has always de-
clined to turn it over to any corpora
ton or syndicate. Believing that IN
the Golden Dipper he has the making
of a mine, he long ago determined to
retain undivided possession and de-
velop it with his W means.
The Se~archlight Consolidated re-
sumed operations at the Oregon yester-
day. II. l.. Norman is in charge of the
work. The main shaft is now being un-
watered, preparatory to continuing
sinking.

The New Town

Progress is being made for the
launching of a new town midway be-
tween Tokop and Gold Mountain. The
survey will be made soon and the fling
of the plat will follow, and probably
next spring another town will be boom
ing.
Long Chance Fraction
Drifting on the vein at 80 feet OF
depth is being done with expectations
of tapping a high grade ore shoos,
which if accomplished, will result in an
immediate shipment.
Orleans No. 8
MeAuliffe and Olson have exceeded
the usual depth for windlass work IN
this camp, having gone to 81 feet IN
their shaft. They have crosscut to the
vein and are engaged in cutting to the
hanging wall, after which they will
drift to the north to develop the ore
shoot.
Grand Trunk Mining Co.
Again there is talk of the resumption
of operations by the Grand Trunk Min
ing company. Col. j. Amidon, in charge
of it's affairs, will come to Hornsilver
o to look after the company s inter
ests. and determine just what to do.
Survey for Grand Central
1t is reported that a survey OF the
| Grand Central group will be made IN
, the near future. The development and
extraction of high grade ore in the Bar
| Der shaft, which is located on the boun-
dairy line between Grand Central No. Z
and the April Fool Fraction, makes IT
necessary to determine on which claim
the vein apexes, as a matter of royalty
now depends upon this question.
