STILL MAKING TESTS
AT u. S. SHELTERS

All the chief officials of the United
States company were at the Bingham
junction works yesterday witnessing a
test that was arranged for their bene-
ut, OF the manner in which the smoke
fumes and gases from the roasting plant
could be handled in that section of The
great bag house set apart for that pir-
pose. From source that is familiar
with what is being accomplished in this
line at the works it is learned that one
and only one, problem remains to De
solved in order to make the proposition
a complete and perfect success. AS the
thing stands today it is said that the
gases from the roasters are so hot when
they reach the bag house that there IS
constant danger of the destruction of
the bags. To- overcome this il is said
that it is only going to be necessary to
devise a plan of cooling the fumes and
gases on their way to the bag house
While this may require a little time, it
is stated that, in case the court grants
the company's application for a modifi-
cation of the injunction decree, the trou-
bic will be quickly taken up and ad-
justed by the introduction of one of sew
eral schemes that can be absolutely de-
pended upon to do the work.
1t is reported from the works that I'M
less speedy consideration of the company's
application to the federal court for per-
mission to continue in operation is had,
the works will have to close down. as
there is not sufficient material on hand
to keep running more than few days
longer.

ALTA-HECLA co.
BUYS LILbORN
Eighty Acres of Valuable Ad-
joining Ground Added to
Company'S Holdings.

The purchase of the Lilborn Mining
company's properties at Alta by the Alta
Hecla company was reported yesterday
morning and Manager George H. Watson
of the Alta-Hecla company confirmed
the report. The property comprises
eighty acres and the purchase price is
said to be $4,000, though Mr.. Watson was
not willing to say what the figure was.
The property was purchased from the
law firm of Prick & Edwards, with whom
the heavy control rested, and the deeds
were passed during the forenoon.
The deal is most important one to the
Alta-Hecla company. as it rounds its pos
sessions out to a total of 20 acres The
property purchase flanks the Albion on
the north and northwest and is joined by
the South Columbus Consolidated prop
critics on the west The original holdings
or the purchasing company adjoin the Lii
born group on the east.
A tunnel is being driven on the Alta
Hecla and work has been progressing all
winter with small force. Some good ore
and as fine ore has also been opened in
the Lilborn ground. the prospects for
lively dOingS at the companY's mines
during the coming season could hardly be
brighter than they are. Mr.. Watson feels
that his company has made a splendid
bargain and he Is now ready to under
take any kind of campaign that may be
mapped out for the extensive develop
ment of the valuable territory now owned
