sion and limited operations to the
300-foot level and those above it.
During the past week there were
shipped to the Balakalla smelter in
Shasta county sis carloads of ore
averaging fifty IONS each, coming
from No. 5B stope above the 200
foot level, the winze below the 200
foot level, the upraise from the 275-
foot level and from the Slope above
the 300-foot west, in all of which
workings there is a good breast of
ore exposed.
200-foot level-Stoping continues
in No. 5B stope above this level, the
ledge maintaining a width of three
feet and carrying very good milling
values. The Wine from the west
drift was lowered ten feet on the dip
of the vein during the past week,
being all in ore of good grade, the
bottom exposing six feet of the pay
material.
275-foot level-The raise from the
northwest drift made connection this
week with the intermediate level
thirty feet below the 200-foot level,
showing three feet of ore all the way
from the point where the raise first
encountered the vein.
300-foot level-The south cross
cut underneath No. 8 stope in the
westerly workings was advanced
twenty-six feet and has about forty
feet yet to go to get into position to
raise to connect with the Wine being
sent down from the 200-foot level,
which has exposed an excellent body
of ore.

MINING.

During the past week 144 feet of
new ground was broken, ~sixty-one of
which were in Mizpah territory,
forty-three in Red Plume and forty
in Silver Top. The Mizpah shaft
was sent down fourteen feet and has
reached the 1440-foot point, with no
change reported in the formation,
the bottom still showing rhyolite.
Mizpah, 200-foot level-The in
terdrift which was being sent out
east from the raise put up on a ledge
cut by the south crosscut from the
main east drift has been discontin-
ued, the face showing only a narrow
seam of quartz In the andesite.
300-foot level-The raise under
the Mizpah fault from the interdrift,
about twelve feet above the main
level, continues to show from three
to four feet of mill ore.
400 and 500-foot levels-No de-
velopment work is in progress at
present on these levels, operations
being confined to the slopes on the
Mizpah veins east and west of the
shaft, where the ore body shows an
average width of about ten feet.
The interdrift sent east from the
Brougher shaft on the Mizpah vein
continues to expose from four to five
feet of milling ore, with about the
same amount showing in the face.
Red Plume, 500-foot level-A west
drift has been started on the quartz
cut by the north crosscut from the
shaft on this level, the face exposing
three feet of quartz carrying low
values. A north crosscut has been
driven during the week from the
west drift from the south crosscut
on a prospecting mission.
The mill report for the week shows
that an average of SO out of the 100
stamps were dropping constantly
crushing 1886 tons of ore. The bull
lion shipment consisted of "a bars of
bullion, valued at 1926 each, and
twenty-six tons of concentrates
worth $500 a ton, making total bull
lion shipments amounting to $57,550.
An average extraction of 81 per cent
was recorded. The average extrac-
ton for the past three months has
averaged 92 per cent.

MONTANA.

At total of TIA feet of new ground
was broken, in addition to extracting
ore enough to keep their 40-stamp
mill running. The semi-monthly
cleanup of cyanide precipitates was
completed last Sunday and resulted
in the production of twenty-five bars
of bullion averaging eighty pounds
each, or about a ton of precious stuff,
During the week all forty stamps
were kept dropping, crushing a total
of 953 tons, from which an extraction
of between S8 to SO per cent is re-
corded.
390-foot level-The west drift in
the footwall of the Triangle vein was
advanced fourteen feet during the
past week along two to three feet of
ore carrying high milling values, the
face now exposing two feet of excel
lent ore. The stope on the Triangle
vein was carried forty feet westerly,
showing an average three feet of
good milling ore all the way. The
crosscuts north into the footwall of
the Triangle vein have exposed from
two to four feet of oxidized ore and
some drifting has been done on the
vein shown up by these crosscuts. A
raise has been started from the east
end of the stope on the Triangle
vein, which was cut off by a fault,
with the object in view of exploring
the ground above the fault.
A raise is being put up on the 465-
foot level west of the shaft to make
connection with the 390-foot level,
and is being sent up along a fault.
the top now showing from two to
three feet of low-grade oxidized ore.
The stope on the Martha vein has
been extended westward, showing
three feet of good milling ore in the
back. "A crosscut is being sent out
north from the face of the west
drift on the Triangle vein to inter-
sect the Martha vein, a distance of
about forty feet. The intermediate
stope on the Macdonald vein, 1000
feet west of the shaft, continues to
produce three feet of good sulphide
ore. This stope is now sixty-five
feet long and exposes a continuous
ore body all the way.
515-foot level-The east drift on
the Triangle vein was extended
twenty-three feet and has holed
through into the older workings on
this vein. The west drift on the
south branch Of the Martha vein was
sent ahead twenty-four feet, show
ing a stringer of ore eight inches
wide in the face. The stope on the
Triangle vein was extended eastward
twenty-five feet, showing the vein to
its regular width of three
feet. From the center of this stope
wide raise has been sent through to
the level above, proving the ore
body to be regular and carrying good
throughout.
565-foot level-The west drift on
he South vein advanced fifteen feet
IN a fault plane, showing the vein to
De badly broken up and the ore mix
ID with waste. East drift No. T.,
which is following three feet of good
mill ore in what is thought to be the
Triangle vein, was advanced nineteen
eet. the face exposing three feet of
God milling ore. This drift has
bout 1000 feet yet to go before en-
o%untering the Mizpah fault.
615-foot level-A west drift has

JOHNSON BRINGS IN ORE
FROM THE NEW STRIKE

To s~ubstantiate the report that a
strike had been made near the new
olmp of Glendale a few days since,
J J. Sullivan, one OF the original 10
Gators of the property, arrived in
Tonopah yesterday afternoon with
considerable ore. II is lead silver
and looks very much like material
that would carry high values in both
metals. The Bonanza man was M
able to learn whether or not any as
says had been made as Mr.. Sullivan
did not volunteer any information on
that score.
The new find lies about ffva lui
one-half miles west of Ellenlaie IL
is described by Mr.. Sullivan as being
a ledge some twelve feet in width,
all OF which shows lead-silver ore.
In addition he states that there IS
some gold in the quartz. He and ms
associates have located a group OF
eight claims and will proceed TO az
once begin development work.

ruling
On Mining Law

Section Al of a circular issued by
the commissioner of the general land
Office at Washington, and approved
March 8, 1909, contains a ruling on
the Interpretation of the general
mining laws that is going to throw
confusion and CONSERVATION into the
camps of claim owners seeking to
obtain government patents. AS Is
generally known, wheE a mining
claim is located, the notice, to con-
form to the law, must designate a
discovery point and the course of
the lode or ledge through the claim.
For many years this designation of
the lode in the location notice is all
that has been required of the claim
owners in establishing his right to
patent the ground, other than that
mineral and rock in place" were to
be found at the point of discovery.
This formality complied with the
owners of a group of claims has been
permitted to do the work for all
claims through one tunnel or shaft
which was shown to tend to the de-
velopment of the group.
According to the new ruling, that
will not do in the future. After a
mining claim has been located, and
before the owner a make applica-
ton for patent under the new ruling,
as contained in the section noted, he
will be required not only to prove
that a ledge has been discovered in
the claim, but he must trace it out
by actual work clear through the
claim or claims to be patented. That
done, he may concentrate his $500
worth of work for each claim, or re-
naming portion of it at one point II
he so desires.
A strict enforcement of the new
rule will mean that not many groups
of mining claims, as such, will ever
be patented again. It Is not often
that a ledge can be readily traced
through a mining claim after its dis
covery on the surface, because of the
action of the elements. In gulche:
the veins existence is often obliter.
ated through erosion and the accum.
u~lation of anywhere from ten to loo
feet or moro of debris that has bppr
washed over it. Dense growths OF
brush and trees also often interfere
with stripping a vein that can BIZ
noted here and there by the outcrop
while to expose 1t for that lp" 9Th OF
a claim would entail work that few
men or companies would be cqnablt
of performing without loss of mucf
time and in some instances tremend.
GUS and unnecessary expenditures Of
money. In cases where companies
and individuals locate on a ledge ant
then take up additional claims tC
avoid encroachments from possible
neighbors, the ruling will be a sting
err.
It is nothing uncommon, after {
vein has been located, or a discovery
made, to locate a number Of fankinl
claims without regard to whether
they contain veins or not, just t
head off possible litigation.

Declaration of Dividend and
General Improvement Are
the Features

The week approaching a close was one repete with interesting
developments in the mines Of Tonopah. The declaration of a
dividend of $350,000 by the Tonopah Mining company furnishes
the leading feature. The ore body in the lower levels of the Bel
mont is looking splendid; in fact, there is a noticeable improve
ment. Work is progressing rapidly on the new mill being erected
by the Tonopah Extension company; the MacNamara is pre-
pairing for the most active development in the history of the
property, while the West End continues to furnish interesting
news. All in all, the prospects in Tonopahs one big industry are
indeed hattering. A detailed report of operations in the different
nronprtips follow:

lar, varying from six to four feet,
and carrying milling vAlues. The
east drift on the vein encountered
near the Midway property line has
been advanced, exposing an average
of two feet of milling ore. Stopping
continues on the Martha and A. B.
X. veins above this level and on the
Macdonald vein below the level, and
the regular amount of ore is being
extracted, the veins showing practi-
cally no change in strength or values.
765-foot levei-The main north
crosscut was advanced thirteen feet
and is now out about 1850 feet.
The face still shows rhyolite.

CHARGES FOR FOREIGN
CARS MAY BE BOOSTED

The proposition to increase the per
diem charge for the use of foreign cars
will be decided by the railroads of the
United States by letter ballot, the
votes to be in by Jan. 1, according to
decision reached by the semi-annual
meeting of the American Railway as
sociation in Chicago.
The railroads are to vote on
whether the charges shall be raised
from the present scale of % cents to
30, 35 or 40 cents. The sentiment at
the meeting was that the 35-cent rate
is too small. 1t will require a two
thirds vote to adopt the new charge.
The railroads are also to vote wheth-
er they want to levy a IS penalty
charge for the diversion of cars. When
q car has long journey before 1t
reaches home. it has been diverted to
other roads to avoid the payment of
some of the per diem charges that
would otherwise accrue. The diversion
penalty is intended to head car to-
ward the owner with as little delay as
possible.
