PAST WEEKS WORK AT CAMP
RocKEFELLER SHOWS RESULTS
Especial Correspondenee.)


Rockefeller, Nov. 26.-T.'G. Cock
ings of the Rockefeller group has left
for Goldfeld with samples of ore pro-
nounced by local experts to be sylvan
lite. He will have them assayed and
return to camp in about a week.
Adolph Neagher is sinking rapidly
on the south side of the White Ele-
plant and fully expects to be able to
show a good ledge inside of the next
thirty days.
A. v. Brook of Butte, Montana, is
on the ground and is examining the
workings of the Double Triangle. He
is also making a grand roundup of the
camp. Mr.. Brook is greatly pleased
with the showings of milling ore and
believes that Rockefeller will shortly
develop into a high grade camp.
Tom Kelley has found a ledge in
South Rockefeller that carries as high
as forty per cent copper and four
ounces silver.
Messrs. Hubbard & Tate of the Little
Johnnie mine have just struck a nice
streak of hornsilver. They recently
took over the property of Bailey Broth
ers.
Thes haft beink sunk by George Dean
is now down ffty-fve feet. Assays as
high as 500 are being obtained.
Walter Cralon is getting fine indica-
tions in his tunnel. 1t is being run on
a property adjoining claim No. 9 of the
Cockings group.

AN OLD BLAIR MINE
Is AGAIN PRODUCING

A shipment of 80 tons of ore is being
prepared at the old Mcnamara lead
mine. The metallic values run to about
$65, in gold, silver and lead. The latter
runs so per cent, the silver being "a
ounces, while the value in gold is only
about $3.50 per ton.
The Mcnamara, from which the ship
ment is taken, is an old producer, lying
about Is miles south of Blair, and on
the north side of the Palmetto range of
mountains. 1t is the property of the
'Meara Bros, who recently disposed
of the Valcalda to the Newhouse syn
dictate. A lease was taken on the Me-
Namara recently by Norman Campbell,
formerly foreman for the O'Mearas, and
who has some half dozen men at work,
and will continue operations through
the winter. The property is developed
by means of a tunnel, which is in some
ooo leet, anu lroh WINCH" ""'No was

At present the mine is somewhat in
accessible, and supplies and ore have to
be carried in and out by pack animals,
but a new road of a mile or less in

team and wagon being taken direct to
the mouth of the tunnel. There is

BULLFROG'S MINING
PROGRESS DURING WEEK

General Manager RothschHd of the
Homestakc-Kin shipped two bricks of
gold bullion this Wednesday afternoon
by Wells Fargo express, says the Rhyo-
lite Herald. The shipment represented
a partial cleanup of two weeks run at
the 25-stamp milling plant, which is
treating rs tons of ore a day. The bull
lion is worth about $4,000.
The Homestake-King mine in the
Bullfrog district is growing daily in
available ore supply.
Never has the management been so
sure of success and long life for the
mine as it is today, now that the mine
is being worked along practical lines.
There was a sudden turn in Home
stake-King affairs about three months
ago, when it was announced that the
mine and mill had closed down after
only a sixty-day run. The stock took
a big tumble, and there were all sorts
of rumors in the air. Some said the
ore was not there, some said the man
agement didn't know how to get it out
and some said some other things of an
uncomplimentary and unassuring Ia
ture.
Homestake-K King became a very
doubtful proposition, and the wiseacres
were looking for another such al an
nouncement as was handed out on Gold
Bar, to the effect that there was moth
ing doing.
But such an announcement did not
come. On the contrary, the directors
came here, authorized a thorough sam
ping of the mine, made a change in
the mine management and started with
a new page in the company's history.
The result has been entirely satisfac-
tory up to date.
The East End
Work continues on the Beatty Gus
tom mill.
There is an effort on foot to boom a
TOWNSHIP in the Pioneer ayfower sec
ton, and there is also talk of getting a
spur in from Springdale to the camp.
Feike & Sweeney are completing a
wagon road to their lease on the Key
stone property, where they have 100
sacks of ore averaging $65 in gold, sill
yer and copper. This ore was taken out
at grass roots, and will be loaded with
some Diamond Queen ore in order to
make a full car.
John Hoffman has completed his con-
tract on the General Bullfrog in Gold
gulch, having sunk to the s~eventy-five-
foot level, from which a crosscut TWEEN
ty-two feet was driven. The drift
shows low grade ore for twenty feet.
The latest report from those inter
ested in the Telluride section is that al
though the Salt Lake deal is off money

il being raised in Denver to develop
the properties. 1t is expected to have
the camp in active operation soon.
springdale Mill
1t is expected that the milling plant
of the Springdale Mining and Milling
company will be ready for commission
within two or three weeks, now that
the last shipment of machinery has been
received.
During the past week an eighty-fve
horse power engine has been received,
completing the equipment. The water
mains have been laid from the springs,
and as soon as the engine is installed
the mill will be in shape to treat ore.
The plant has a capacity of about
forty tons per day, and will work out
a new method of ore reduction, inaugur-
ated by Messrs. Newcomer and Rankin.
The mill is located a few hundred
feet from the tracks of the Tonopah &
Tidewater railway at Springdale, and is
thereby brought in touch by transporta-
ton with the entire district, while the
Pioneer and Mayfiower mines are less
than three miles away.
Tramp Will Lease
Superintendent Charles Garden an
nounees hat leases will be granted by
the Tramp Consolidated company on it's
n---u.~ .~.-.xc:. co@o4. Garyara1 nm
plications have been received, but no
leases have been signed up. There is
an extensive area in which leasers may
work at a profit, if the company sees
fit to lease out those portions of the
ground.
The shaft has reached the first 100
feet below the tunnel level and cross
cutting is in progress.
T. & T. Group
A. A. Mcknight has returned from
Riggs, where he inspected the work in
progress on the T. & T. group. Pros
pecting is being done to determine the
best place to sink. Some fine ore has
been opened in shallow cuts.
May Consolidated Banks
A deal is pending for a consolidation
of the First National Bank of Rhyolite
and the John s. Cook & Co. banking
house of this city. B. L. Smith and
MI. Cook were in consultation here the
first of the week. Definite announce
ment is expected to be made within a
few days.
Zeigler Bullfrog
The recent strike in the Bullfrog
Pioneer has stimulated interest in the
Crystal Springs and Mayfower sections
of the camp. Among the Goldfeld
brokers who are gladdened by the
strike is Walter Whitmore, locator of
the claims, now owned by the Zeigles
Bullfrog company, which he promoted.
Mr.. Whitmore is confident that that
will be the best in the Bullfrog
district.
