GOLD PRODUCTION.
United States Mines Show An In
crease for the Year.

United States Mines Show An In
crease for the Year.
Washington, Nov. 24.-The gold
mines of the United States produced
$o4,56O,0O worth of precious metal dur
ing 1908, according to the geological
survey and the bureau of mints,
which have co-operated in preparing
an analysis of the reports from pri-
vate rehners and federal mints and
assay Offices.
The total gold product was 4,574,-
$40 ounces, a net increase in value of
$4,124,3OO. Colorado leads with a pro-
duction value Of $22,87l 900; Alaska
was second with $l9,858,8OO and Cal
ifornia was third with $lo,32o, 200.
Porto Rico was the smallest producer
with total of only $500. The Philip
pines show an increase Of $2l9, 800,
to total of $284,5OO.
Some states of the Union usually
not associated with gold mining
make a showing. In fact 81 of the
states and territories, not including
Porto Rico and the Philippines, are
now producing gold.
The summary shows net de-
crease Of 4,O73,0OO ounces Of silver
with value of $28O5O,6OO. The to-
tai production was 52,44O,8OO fine
ounces.
Montana leads with a product of
1O,356,2O fine ounces. As in gold,
the Philippines show a remarkable
increase in silver production.
Silver Bow Shows Million Increase.
Washington, Nov. 24-A bulletin
issued today by the geological sur
vey shows that in 1908 Montana ro-
duced $3,O57,64O in gold and 1885,
1919 fine ounces of silver, valued at
$5,488,785. The values Of the precious
metals produced in Montana in 1907
were $3,286,2l2 in gold and $6,14o,-
6l9 in silver, SO that there was de-
crease in 1908 Of $228,572 in gold and
of $500, $40 in silver, although there
was an increase in the quantity of
silver of l,O38,594 fine ounces.
Deer Lodge county shows a slight
decrease in both placer and deep
mine gold, but considerable increased
silver output.
Powell county largely augmented
its placer gold production, but the in
crease was more than offset by the
greatly reduced deep-mine prodmc-
ton of gold in 1908 and the slightly
reduced silver output
In Silver Bow county there was a
materially reduced yield of placer and
deep-mine gold, but an increase of
about 100000 ounces of silver over
the corresponding output of 1907.
