The directors OF the Anaconda Cop

gan coal operators and miners agreed

March 3lst, 1909. The miners will
continue at work.
The Yerington, Nevada, district
generally is improving wonderfully,
and the sort Of development work be-
ing done in several different mines is
of the most permanent character that
could be adopted
A prominent Reno outfit is going
to erect a custom mill at Gold Circle,
Nevada, and they have already filed
| on the waters of Rock creek, with the
intention of installing an electrical
plant to furnish power to the district.
Charles Strong of Arizona and II.
| j. Robinson of Los Angeles are to
| build customs stamp mill at Leak
stalk, Cal, to treat ores from Search
| light, Hart and other districts tribu.
tary to the Salt Lake and Santa Fe
route.
The American Smelling & Refining
| plant at East Helena, Mont, which a
| few months ago suspended nearly all
| operations because of depression in
metal markets, last week reinstated
sixty former employees and started an.
other furnace.
The Jumbo mine at Gold Springs Is
to be operated with an augmented
force in a few weeks and a vigorous
plan of development is to be inaugu-
rated. The Jumbo Is generally con-
sidered one of the coming big things
of the district.
Leasers on the Ripsaw mine at Gold
Circle have opened up a vein nine
feet wide, two feet of which will run
over $3.50 to the ton. BY men who
know the district 1t is claimed that a
good ledge of 500 ore is the equiva-
| lSnl vi OWHlHB u mint.
Another strike has been made in
the Frieberg, Nevada, district South
and east of the Wyoming and the BIZ
metallic properties, four feet of $50
ore has been encountered at shallow
depth and the belief Is expressed that
the find is going To develop into
something OF more than ordinary i'm
portanee.
The Seven Troughs Daisy Mining
company, the Boilermaker Mining
company, Sweeney & Egan of the Big
Dipper and the proprietors of the
Annie and Josie claims, almost 81
simultaneously report big strikes on
their estates within mile OF Yer
non, Nevada, on the south end OF the
mineral belt.
A quicksilver mine has been dis
covered in Panther Gulch, Deer Creek.
Idaho, by John Dacherl, who has
tapped the vein in tunnel some 500
feet in the mountain. The find has
created no end of interest in Idaho,
and a few days ago Mr.. Dacherl re-
fused $4,000 for ten days option on
the property.
The Goldfeld News is out with
strong appeal to the mine owners of
Goldfield in which it asks thai leas-
ers be given better terms in that great
gold camp. The News deplores the
fact that Goldheld has gone from the
busy camp of $4,000 people to one of
5000, and to the verge of being
company camp.
Since conditions have become more
favorable for mining within the
twenty-mile limit of the Southern Pa
cifific railroad a great deal of country
in Nevada that has been passed up
for years Is now receiving attention
and strikes are being made at greater
or less distances from the railroad
lines all the time.
The new discovery In Bull Valley,
Utah, has apparently the simplest
merit of extraordinary richness as far
as developed; what It will develop
into is the absorbing question in view
of its pitch and indefinite extent. Ow-
ing to the rich float found in the vicin-
ity, IL is confidently believed that Il
will develop into diyidend.paying
district.
Salt Lake officials of the Seven
Troughs Eclipse Mining company
have just received some specimens of
ore characteristic of the rock now be.
ing opened in this Salt Lake PROPOSE
ton at depth. The rock is very rich
in gold, being both the sulphide and
oXidized ores.
Since the report of Begole Mines
syndicate was written, advices have
been received from President Begole,
now at Goldheld, saying the smeters
are offering to treat 1000 tons of ore
on dump at $l5 per ton. This is $40
per ton less than treatment charges
of December last
