The Tom Reed Mines.

s. s. Jones, superintendent of the Tom Reed mining company, was in Kingman this week on his way to the , mines from trip to Prescott and Phe- nix. He reports the mine showing up , in splendid shape, every opening being ,, in ore. Since the beginning of work by the Tom Reed company not one pound of ore has been taken from the stopes, all extractions from develop ments having gone to the mill. The retorts from the mill give a value of about 50, ,000S per month for each and every month since last March, and all from development work, something unheard of in mining in Arizona since the days of the Silver King. A ten stamp mill and plate amalgamation has been the factor in the extraction of the gold from the ores, although lately the small cyanide plant has been securing some values from the tails. No sinking has as yet been done but large amount of drifting on the vein has been carried on, as well as some raising to the levels above. Slopes are now being opened in the great ore bodies and soon as sinking is begun these stopes will be called on to furnish the ores until new level is opened at greater depth. Only a small holster has at yet been placed on the mine, although it is the inten- | tion of the management to equip the property with large machinery in the near future. With better water SUD- ply and larger mill the mine will soon be in fair way to produce from lO0,0 ,00OS to 200, 0,0OO$ monthly. With the l settlement of the suits of the Blue Ridge company there is every reason to believe the property will become one of the largest gold producers in the United States. Aside from the rich bodies of ore it has fourteen feet of low grade ore in the ground already opened up, which extends down to the lowest level.

The Mcguire Mines.

It may not be generally known, but nevertheless it is a fact that the Ma guire mine, four miles south of King man, has one of the finest bodies of ore ever opened up in this county on its hanging wall, on the north side of the great vein. This ore body is a network of stringers covering width of six feet and averaging 4OS gold to the ton. The find was made by the Arizona Gold Mines company in mak- ing an examination of the property some months ago, but the public was not taken into its confidence in the matter. Now that the mill is almost ready to drop It's stamps the matter has become public through casual statement of one of the company. The mine is possibly one of the greatest veins of gold ore ever opened up on the Pacific coast, being from three hundred to five hundred feet in width and carrying values throughout its en-
 
 boilers yesterday and when the fur. naces are dr jed out and the lift is colh- pleted, which will be by Monday next, at the outside, the mill will be started up and the big mass of vein matter will be tested out. The company will light the plant with electric lights, power for which will be generated in the mill. An electric pump will force water from the deep well in the banks of Railroad Canyon to the big tank some distance above the mill.
 Buildings for all purposes are fast assuming shape at the mines and within short time the company will have one of the best equipped camps in the territory. When it is under stood that sixty days ago there was not stick of timber on the grounds and that today there is complete ten stamp mill, equipped with electric light and power plant, electric lights, concentrators, mill building, bunk houses, boarding house, blacksmith shop, office and other buildings, a six hundred foot railroad spur track and other economies, it will be noted that the management has been going some. General Manager E. M. Lamont and Superintendent Kilvert, who have had wide experience in the equipment and management of mines and mills, have been in charge of the equipment of this property. And as they have se- lected this mine from an offering of over two, hundred properties It would look as though they were making no mistake in taking over this property.

A report has gained currency in Kingman this week that one of the most important strikes ever made in San Francisco district was made in the Gold Road mine last week. So far nothing can be learned as to the To- cation of the strike, although it is gen. erally believed to be true. The mine has been showing up some wonderful bodies of ore in the new ground open ed by the south drift on the 800 and it is believed that the rich strike is on that level in the Billy Bryan ground The company is getting things in shape for the electric installations and the new mill will be ready to begin work as soon as the power plant at Kingman is ready to deliver the juice.
