INSPIRATION.

r. b. Drummond, who retires as the
general manager of the Newhouse
Mines and Shelters, will be appointed
general manager of the Inspiration
Copper company, with properties at
CODE. Arizona.
Mr.. Drummond was at one time
manager of the Nipissing Mining COM
many. previous to which he was dated
and Dominion Copper companies.
The Inspiration has now started 10
block on tore. At the 500 level of tn"
Joe Bush it is cutting a 30-foot station
preparatory to drifting north, south
east and west. About 20 feet OF DRIFT
ing has been done north and south
from this peint all in per cent sui
phide GRE. At the 400 level the ore
body is $40 feet thick, and every lOo
feet of drifting on all sides OF the
shaft blocks out 100000 tons of ore
on three sides.

MINING
SENECA.

some of the most important work
trict is at the Seneca, where the new
SHAFT on tho Kearsarge vein is reported
as showing satisfactory values at a
depth of 430 feet. The developments
at the first level afforded but little en-
enlargement, the vein having been
found badly shattered and unfavorable
TO mineral deposition. But this ex-
perience was met with at the neigh
boring properties. especially to the
south, and it. is not improbable that
considerable depth may have to be
driven to reach the better part of the
Kearsarge lode.
Deeply significant as bearing upon
The probable copper values of the Sem
cca is the fact that at extreme depths
Mohawk No. shaft is showing a bet
ter than average quality of vein mat
ter. The importance of this is better
appreciated Wien it is realized that
the location of this shaft is but a
comparatively short distance from the
Seneca boundary. and that the terri
tory it is now developing will ultimate
~ extend across the line into the Sem
eca acreage 1t is also worthy of note
that the best values at Ojbway and
Gratiot, neighboring properties are
being secured with increasing depths.
The Seneca has 10000 shares. of
which 11,2O1 shares were voted in the
name OF the Calumet q Hecla Mining
Co. at its last annual meeting. when
control of the tcompany's affairs pass
ed into the hands of the latter. 1t will
bc seen that the technical position of
the stock is strong. and it may be add
ed that these shares afford a very at
tractive medium of speculation. phe
Seneca owned the Ahmeek mineral
possessions until 1880. when they were
cut off with view to the development
ON the latter OF the Kearsarge con-
glomerate. which proved a fiat failure.
subsequently the Ahmeek developed
the Kearsarge amygdaloid vein, and
thanks to the attendant success this
company's $4,000 shares now have a
market value of about $12.000000
The Seneca possessions comprise l.
500 acres just north of the Mohawk
and Ahmeek. With the shafts bot
toned at depths below the boundary
angles the company will possess a
working length on the Kcarsarge lode
Of one and three quarters miles. The
Mohawk shafts Nos. / and will be
cut off by this property at depth of
about 1000 feet.-Hayden. stone & Co.

May. This is at the rate of $4,000, OOC
pounds year, as compared with an
output i'm the fiscal year ended Jun,
80, 1903, of something less than AZ
900, 900.
The stock has been quite active this
week and has scored slight advance
On very indefinite rumors OF consoli-
dalton. or at least an agreement with
the Phelps-D interests. and the
possible taking over Of some of the
latters property in Mexico by Greene
Cananea.
II is much to be hoped that there Is
some truth i'm these reports, and that
Greene Cananea is TO be placed I'm the
way of attaining very much larger
output. At the time OF the reorganiz
alton by the Cole Ryan interests,
Greene ananea was given the larges,
share of capitalization of any impor-
tant copper producer. Within the next
two years the cost of production was
reduced from IL to 10lA cents pound
greatly to the credit of the local man
agement, but the volume of produce
ton has never been brought up to a
point proportionate with the capitaliza-
ton.
1t is possible to figure material earn
ings per share while production re-
mains at anything like the present lev
ell. IL Greene Cananea stock is ever t.
resume its former price, the company
will have to have production in the
vicinity of 1OO,O00,OOO pounds per an
mum, and il the issuance of the bal
ance of the treasury stock of 100000
shares will provide the equipment
necessary for this. 1t will be greatly tC
the stockholders advantage to issue IL
as it will be better to have a company
with a capitalization of 100000 shares
and an output of 10O,O00O0O lbs thar
zone with $500 900 shares and an output
of $4,000, 000.-Hayden, Stone & Co.
