INLAY MINE IS
MAKING BIG one
Management Is Now Planning
to Ship High Grade Ores
to Market.

The management of the INLAY Mining
company with splendid properties in
Humboldt county, Nevada, is now plan
ming for the marketing of its high grade
ores. Owing TO the fact that freight
rates are a little lower in the opposite
direction and the Selby works of the
American Smelling & Refining company
are better prepared to handle the kinds
of ore which the Inlay carries, the prob
abilities are that the product will not be
marketed in Salt Lake.
At the mine the work of connecting up
between the new shaft workings and the
old incline on the opposite side of the
hill Is now progressing and advices from
Superintendent Turner are to the effect
that another 100 feet of work will finish
the job. The drift in the ledge from the
new shaft side is now all in ore and a
great deal of il is of an exceptionally
high grade. The face of this drift IS
now practically under the bottom of the
incline workings on the other side of the
hill where sinking is progressing in rock
some of which is showing up sensational
quantities of free gold in connection with
the other metals.
Since the ledge was tapped in the new
shaft the old workings have been entire
ly drained and Secretary Siddoway re-
ports that the volume of water in the
new workings is gradually subsiding.
Where it was at first necessary to keep
the pump running night and day, the day
Sn1t. alone, does all the pumping that
lis necessary to keep the workings free
of water.
As the work of development progresses
the mill grade of ore is being piled on
the dumps while the high-grade and
sorted rock is being made ready for ship
ment as soon as a contract for its treat
ment is secured. While there has been
a number of assessments and the share
holders have been called upon to dig up
quite literally, it now seems as though
it would never be necessary to call for
another assessment. If the ground con-
tinues to respond to development as It
is doing at present. it may be set down
as a fact that it will not be many months
until a substantial treasury reserve has
been accumulated.
The new hosting works, the compress
SOr and power drill outfit are all INSTALL
ed and, with the exception of the power
drills. which have not yet been brought
into play, everything is working like a
charm. The pipe lines are all in for the
power drills, but pending the try-Out of
a new water power drilling outfit that
has been accorded a Denver firm, the
compressor will not be used to supply
power to the drills. If the new scheme
works there will be a great saving in
cost by the use of the method; if it does
not, it will not take more than day or
two for the company to put into action
its own plant.

WABASH LITIGATION
REPORT is DENIED

A report was put iTf circulation yester-
day to the effect that the Wabash COM
pany was in litigation with the Silver
King Coalition. Where it, started no one
seemed to know. but Manager Nicholas
Treweek, of the Wabash, was busy dur
ing the afternoon answering Inquiries
concerning it.
~ can not tell what prompted the start
ing of any such report" said Colonel Ire
week, land ii is passing strange that any
one could have placed any credence IN it.
There is absolutely no foundation for it.
The properties of the two companies are
at least two miles apart and it is i'm
possible that anything could ever come
up between them. My personal suit
against the King company has nothing
at all to do with the Wabash. | wish
you would say so in order that unin-
formed stockholders of the Wabash com
pany will not get the notion that the
company is i'm trouble"
At the Wabash mine three shifts are
now working away in the new ledge and
about eight feet a day is being covered
in exploring the vein. The ground is still
exceedingly wet. but il looks as proms-
ing as ever for the making of substan-
ual and high-grade ore bodies Other
than that Manager TreWeek says, there
is nothing to report at the present time.

FRED A. FLlNDT ARRIVES
FROM WHEELER MINES

Fred A. Flindt, who has undertaken the
management of the Wheeler Gold Mining
cOmpany's properties in the Yerington
country, came in from camp FRIDAY
night on business connected with the i'm
provements that are being made in the
milling plant. He states that the mine
is showing up better in the way of ore
bodies than he expected it would do and.
while he does not consider that he has
proved up a big mine yet. he declares
that the property has a right to be claSsed
as mighty fine prospect, and he prom
iSes that a great deal of money will be
taken out of it during the present year.
He is adding to the capacity and the eff
ficiency of the mill all the time and as
evidence that results are being attained
even while the changes and experiments
are being conducted, he states that a nice
gold brick was sent to the mine a few
days ago.
The Ysrington country is looking up all
around, Mr.. Flindt says. and the better
developed copper properties are now run
ming at a clip that means big results for
the near future. Yerington district, Mr.
Flindt declares, is going to stand in a
class all by itself on account of the great
amount of high grade ore that will be
mined in addition to the ores contained
in the mountainous deposits of ordinary
grade milling rock. The camp, with the
advent of great corporations and the con-
duct of operations on a scale .commen-
surate with the quantity and quality of
the ores, cannot fail to make of Yering-
ton bigger camp than Ely.

GOLD DIGGERS
NOTHING TO SAY
Men Who Produce Money Are
Not Consulted in Finan-
CiaI Legislation.

On his way back to Denver from a trip
through Montana and the northwest Sec
rotary ]. +, Collbreath of the American
Mining congress, spent yesterday in Salt
Lake comforting with big mining inter-
ests here. Mr. Collbreath was an in
terested spectator at the callSon the min
ing exchange during the forenoon and,
at the close of the session, he was invited
to make talk ito the members and the
assembled spectators.
After paying high compliment to the
exchange which he characterized as be-
ing the best in the world. he called at
tention to the work that the American
Mining congress is performing to bring
the mining interests of the country closer
together and in educating the world TO
the taet that no other business. honestly
conducted, is as legitimate and as profit
able as mining, legitimately conducted
he directed the attention of his hearers
to the fact that this country is at pres
ent planning scheme to provide more
money and, after explaining what shape
the plans are in at the present time, he
said:
1T is universally admitted that gold
is the real basis for all money; but are
you miners being called into consultation
as to what would be the best means of
providing more money in times of strin-
gency? Not bit of it. The banker,
railroad magnate are being consulted, but
the men who produce the gold are not
being considered at all. And you never
will be consulted and you never will get
square shake in this world until YOU
combine your forces and demand what
is evidently your just right in the mat
ter or shaping the finances of this eoun-
try"
Mr.. Collbreath said he hoped the day
was close at hand when everybody In
terested in mining, mining promotion
would be enrolled as members of the
American Mining congress. BY so doing
national recognition could be demanded
and much good to the industry, the clean
est business, honestly handled in the
world, could be accomplished. He advo-
Gated the banding together of the mine
owners in state associations and declared
that ii was the only way they stood the
least show OF getting a square deal at
banking and railroad interests of the
country. For years, he said, the pro-
Queer of gold, silver and the other met
ais had been ground between the mill
stones of the smelling and railroad IN
terestS of the country, aided and abetted
by the bankers, and ii was high time
that concerted move was made to Sc
cure freedom.
The visitor said he would like to talk
many matters that he should like to
cover. but realizing that he was holding
men from their business, he cut mis- re-
marks short. He talked for only about
ten minutes, but he covered lots Of
ground and gave his hearers something
to think about. He expected to continue
his journey home last night

George Thackrah, the veteran expert

find lots to do. A set of books once ar
ranged by Mr.. Thackrah are the simplest
