INLAY MINES NOW
MAKING GOOD

President george WI Morgan and
Judge 0. Powers of the INLAY com
pany, returned yesterday morning to
Salt Lake form trip of inspection
to the company's mines in Humboldt
county, Nevada. says the Salt Lake
Herald. While Mr.. Morgan makes fire.
quent trips to the property, it is
nearly eighteen months sice Judge
Powers was last at the camp That
the changes that have taken place
since that time almost bewildered him,
the Judge frankly admits.
am almost afraid to talk about
it, said Judge Powers - 1T seems to
me that ! am at last really identified
with u real mine. The experience is
one with which have been such a
total stranger, during my career, that
it is hard for me to get used to i.
1t is hard to believe that suca is
really the case. though the evidence
seems to be conclusive and indesputa-
Bile. There is now over carload of
fine ore at the railroad station, and
two more at the mine waiting at the
mine to be hauled Up to this time
the ore has been moved only as rapid. J
as teh company team could haul it.
Gallo would be hauled to the mine and
ore loaded hack, but | understand that
more teams Will soon be secured and
the ore moved faster. Superintendent
Turner SAYS that he is row ready TO
send out Il ear load a week and judg
ing from the appearance of the mine
would say that he would have 10
difficulty ii doing this.
Aside from the remark ie fine ore
showing on the properly, Judge Pow
ors said that the one thing that i'm
pressed him, was the workmanlike
manner in which the mine had been
opened and the, splendid machinerg
and equipment with which the proper
~ his been provided. Most of the
ore now being mined. the Judge says,
is coming from and above the lln
foot level, although ore is exposed aud
ready for mining in no less than five
different places on the 25O or bottom
level of the mine. More ore thai
waste Is broken, taking all part of the
mine for II and that is an unusua
condition IN most mines.
In addition to the splendind shcw-
ing of high grade ore, Judge Powers
states that a worl dof fine milling aec
is being developed in the mine. IN
the north drift on the 40 foot levei.
ten feet Of $40 ore has been passed
through aud fifteen feet hevond thc
face of the drift is now entering tbe
high grade mineral zone that goes
with the white quartz. In the south
drifton the same level one third of the
face was in high grade ore when he
left the mine and the superintendent
expressed the hope that it would be
only a few days until ne would have
great body of rich ore opened up.
Judge Powers said that connections
with the old irelined orkings and the
new shaft have been made, and that
the mine is SO well kept up that 1t
looks like busiess TO inspect any part
of it. While the company owns thirty
five claims, with rich mineral showings
in every one of them, the work done
to date has been only to develop ore
happen when the other claims have
been developed and are made to show
what is in them can only be imagined
but the management Of the company
is sanguine that many other claims
will oe found just as rich if not richer
than the one that is now magknqnqn
than the one that is now making the
mine
