ENORMOUS ORE BODIES IN
CONSOLIDATED AT 900 FEET

Disclosures of the utmost importance
in their bearing on the FIXTURE of Coli
field arc being made by the Clermont
shaft of the Goldfeld Consolidated,
which has reached a depth of 92O fees,
and opened one of the largest bodies
of ore cver found in this district. The
w~orld-famous Mohawk vein was inter
copied at a vertical depth of $50 fees,
which is 256 feet below the bottom of
the Mohawk shaft, and 1850 feet
from the surface ON the plane of the
formation, dipping 50 degrees.
The shaft has been in ore of milling
and shipping grade for a distance of co
feet. until an intrusion of waste rock
was encountered a few days ago. This
win soon he passed through, and as the
footwail is approached, values of more
than bonanza proportions will undout
edly lie encountered, by picking up the
core OF the Mohawk enrichment. 1t IS
not believed that the full width of the
vein will he exposed until the shaft
reaches a depth of 1000 feet, at which
point lateral workings will be run.
The vein is found to be much richer
here than in the old Mohawk shaft. On
breaking through the hanging wall of
the vein a solid body of ore averaging
500 was disclosed, as compared with ~
values at the corresponding point On
the Mohawk 600-foot level. The pre-
dictions based upon these figures are
fully borne out by development, MS e
is understood from unofficial but re-
liable information that an average Of
$50 has been shown as compared with
$50 across the high grade shoot on the
600-f foot level of the Mohawk, and
about $s0.61 which the Mohawk com-
pany's production averaged between
May and October, 1907.
Outlook Is Good
General Manager Mackenzie is very
conservative in the information which
he gives out. While confirming the fact
that the shaft has been in quartz of Q
satisfactory character for a consider
able distance, he does not commit him
self as to values.
"Wc have cut the Mohawk ledge,
said Mr.. Mackenzie, "and have been
in quartz almost since we cut it. We
are still sinking to catch the Mohawk
ore shoot. The rake of the shoot is
somewhat to the south, and we may
possibly miss ii a little with the shaft,
but if 50, we will readily pick it up
with a drift. We have proven that
the ore is persistent with depth, and
so far as the future of the camp IS
concerned that is the main thing.

TIE COMBINED MINING &
LEASING COMPANY

The contractors who are driving the
erosseut on the Velvet lease on the 200
foot level to reach the Kicker vein at its
contact with the north and south Vel
vet vein are making about four feet a
day, and expect to cut the vein within
fifty days. Before starting a good
sized station was cut. Leases in this
part of the district are being eagerly
sought for since the ore shipments from
the Kicker lease have proved the terri
tory to be within the producing zone.

DEVELOPMENTS ON ATLANTA

Eight sets of ~lessees are at work on
the Atlanta ground, and an immense
amount of development is being done.
In various shafts. small seams of high
grade ore have been found associated
with low grade milling ore, but it will
take greater depth than has yet been
attained to catch the Jumbo, Mohawk
and Florence lodges. Many of the
shafts have encountered the dark sui
phides characteristics of Goldfeld ore
shoots, and it seems but II matter of
continued development to open some
high grade lenses.

LITTLE GoLDFIELD

The Little Goldfeld company has
sunk the shaft ON their lease ON the
Souvenir property to the 250-foot level,
encountering good values in both gold
and silver. Crosseutting has been
started and will be pushed to the west
of the shaft, to open up a ledge which
showed up on the l50-foot level.
A crosseut will also he run to the
east where a ledge ~assaying $50 was
encountered on the l50-foot level.

WINSTON LEASE is SHIPPING

Steady shipments of good ore are be-
ing made from the Winston lease on the
Florence. Although no sensational
body of ore has been opened, a constant
improvement is being made in the
workings. ard there is a good chance
for picking up some high grade at al.
most any time.

Mill Working Fine

1.-The Consolidated mill is working
fine and more than meeting our expectf
%tions.' he said. ".We have not had q
single stamp hung up since we started
and within a day or W the entire bas-
terry will be in full commission. It's
efficiency is found to be much more
than had been promised in the amount
of ore it is capable of crushing, and
while the plant has been called a 600
daily capacity, it is probable that Ii
will prove up close to 700 tons.
1.-The big mill has now reached the
stage in it's ore reduction that we ex-
pect about Sunday to open the flood
gates at the lower end below the But
tiers tanks and let off some of the ac-
eumlated water and shines. BY that
time the mill will be brought up to
practically full operation. The hun
dreds of thousands of gallons of water
which we turn loose will be caught in
the big storage reservoir, from where
it will be pumped back to the head of
the mill as it is needed. The first
general cleanup will not be made until
the latter part of the month, when a
check will be made on the saving by
amalgamation, concentration and cyan
idins. Amalgam is now being saved
and stored in the safety vault.
The annual meeting of the Conscl-
idated will be held at Evanston, Wyo.,
next Monday, and it is expected that
some inside information of a very inter
esting nature will be given to the

CLEVER DETECTIVE
WORK LANDS MAN

AS result Of clever detective work
on the part OF Henry j. Slayton, a
deputy sheriff from Barre, VT. Monroe
j. Green, who has been running a
bakery at No. CSC Russellst.. is now
on his way TO the Vermont town to
face a charge of disposing of contract
property. Green formerly ran a bak-
cry In Barre, but last November, IL is
alleged, he sold out the business,
which he had previously mortgaged,
and came to Detroit with woman,
leaving his wife behind.
A letter mailed by Green from Wind
sor to friend in Barre was his undo
ing. He put an American stamp on ii
and 1t went to the dead letter office
In Ottawa. The person addressed was
finally notified that he could have the
letter by paying the postage. In some
manner Slayton learned that the letter
was from Green and began an inves-
tigation which brought him to Wind
sor. While in the Windsor postoffice
Tuesday, he saw the woman with
whom Green had eloped mailing some
letters and trailed her across the riv-
er and to the bake shop on Russell
st. Green's arrest soon followed

most delectable dishes, as we'll as the

many who declared they had never
attempted TO prepare one or else had
not had satisfactory results. Mrs
Haffner told the ladies that planking
was the easiest way to prepare a
steak.

as well as the plank, before placing

When the steak was broiled, Mrs.
Haffner garnished 1t with mashed po-

MANY IRREGULARITIES
IN ELECTION CHARGED

II all the claims made by Aid. Ro-
senthal, who is defending his seat in
the council, and by ex-Ald. Fred Mohn,
who wants that seat. are correct, the
election In that ward was about as
crooked as any ever been held in the
city
Rosenthal will present to the re-
count committee OF the council. con-
sisting of Aid Shapland, Gilman and
Garvey, evidence to show that in the
sixth precinct, where Mohn got an
immense vote. the election board did
not make even pretense OF obeying
the law and that ballots for illiterate
voters were marked according to the
intent of the inspector rather than OF
the voter.
Mohn charges fraud particularly In
the third precinct. which he wants
thrown out. He will try to
show that one OF the members of the
election board was a resident Of the
Seventeenth ward and that many OF
the registrations were illegal and
fraudulent, that Gustav Dihle acted
as a member of the board without be.
ing properly chosen, that voters were
not sworn as to their inability to mark
ballots. Mohn also complains that
Rosenthal had access to the floor of
the counting board. He further
charges that one precinct was not re.
turned as counted until 26 hours af-
ter It had been placed on the count
ing board tables.
Miscellaneous Irregularities are
charged by each up and down the
ward. There is difference of 80
votes to be overcome by Mohn.
