KING DAVID'S NEW PLANT
IS NOW IN OPERATION

Manager David Evans of the King Da-
va and Indian Queen companies proper
ties in Beaver county came up from the
south yesterday morning for the puT-
pose of purchasing an electric lighting
plant for the King David.
Mr.. Evans states that the new steam
hosting works and compressor plant at
the King David is now in full commission
and that the task of sinking the big oper-
ating shaft has commenced in earnest
He declares that there is not shadow Of
doubt that the ore bodies OF the Horn Sill
yer bonanza mines make right into King
David ground and he promises that it will
not be long till he has encountered them
through the big shaft workings The les
sees on a portion of the company's ground
now have a lot of fine lead ore ready to
market, and they are adding to the pile
all the time.
At the Indian Queen. Manager Evans
states. the big operating tunnel is now in
a distance of 1000 feet. with some dis
lance yet to run to reach the objective
point. He states. also, that there will be
no more strike stories sent out from that
property If he can help it until there is
something worth talking about.

Mines and Mining Stocks

markedly strong and persistent and the
values beat anything ever found in a gold
camp before, verify believe. And the ore
is ideal for milling purposes. The simplest
processes result in collecting over 90 per
cent Of the values and the grade of the
milling rock is such thss tremendous pro-
tits can be depended upon in its handling.
The Coalition compa1y's properties are
evidently located right in the heart OF the
richest portion of the mineral belt and de-
veiopment is proving that every foot in
depth gained is making the mines bigger
and richer. The FairYiew mine of the
Seven Troughs company is a splendid
property Its ore bodies are continuous
down to the 750-foOt level, and the mill
run now being made on ore from this
mine, judging from the big accumulation
Of gold-bearing amalgam that ] saw be-
fore leaving camp is going to demonstrate
that the milling ore that is, the ore with
the high grade eliminated is going TO
make a remarkable showing
''Oue thing that impresses a visitor to
that district, Is the fact that. while
everybody Is cOurteOusly treated there. no
one seems to have any notion of peddling
out the usual gold camp hot air. Whey
are all willing that visitors should learn
what the district has in the way of
mineral resources without trying to boom
anything The method may and unques-
tiOnably has had the effect of holding
down the districts notOriety. but it will
count in the long run, for when the
camps merits are fully understood. as
they must soon be, capital, backed by the
right class of talent will take hold there
and grind out millions in profit for many
what the camp has got I shall have no
hesitancy in advocating investment there
and the development of its resources on an
extensive scale"

0LUMBUS CONSOLIDATED
ANNUAL MEETING HELD

At the annual meeting Of the Columbus
consolidated Mining company yesterday
Z64, 465 of the ZS3, 5SS issued shares of stock
in the corporation were represented in
person and by proxy. The promised
scrap did not materialize because the local
and Michigan interests got together before
the meeting and agreed upon a ticket that
was satisfactory all around. Unlike most
companies, the Columbus Consolidated
stockholders elect officers and directors
at the same time. thus cbyiating the nee
essity Of a directors meeting to organize
the board.
The election resulted in the selection of
Charles A. Walker as president: Benja-
min Chynoweth of Houghton, Mich, as
vice president; s A Whitney. secretary
and treasurer; the other directors being
Tony Jacobson and l. A Jeffs.
A motion prevailed at the meeting which
directs the officers Of the company to call
a special meeting for some time in June
with the object of having the shareholders
vote on an amendment to the articles of
Incorporation changing the regular an
nuai meeting time of the company from
January to some month in the year when
the weather is better and the camp in
which the companys mines are located is
free from snow. The purpose, it was ex-
planned wassto make il possible for east
ern shareholders to come out and attend
the annual meeting at a time when it
would be possible to visit the mines with
out Inconvenience. 1t is therefore likely
that the next regular annual meeting
of the company will not be held for about
months

COlE-RYAh ADVENT IN
ELY GOOD FOR BUSINESS

W J. Craig. manager of the FEDERAL Ely
and the Seven Troughs Eclipse companies
properties, returned from Nevada yester-
day morning. He had nothing to release
concerning either proposition. simply stat
ing that he had been out on one of his
periodical inspection trips
He did say, however, that since the an
nouncement that the Cole-Ryan combine
ton had taken hold of the Giroux there
was q wonderful change for the better in
the appearance of things at Ely. He be-
leves that the camp will now take on q
growth that means something. for the en-
try OF the big combination is stimula ting
everybody to renewed effort
Yesterday was the time set for the Gil
rOux meeting in Boston and the presump-
ton is that the management of the Ciroux
mines were turned over. as the reports
have said they would be. At Ely il is ex-
pected that a new campaign will soon be
under way at the Gir0ux.

CHICAGO MAN ON
SEVEN TROUGHS
Brings the Same Good Re-
ports From Rich Camp That
All Visitors Relate of 1t.

Harry S Lewis of the big mining and
brokerage house Of H 5. Lewis & Co.,
Chicago. is in the city for a day or two
after a trip into the Seven TrOughs dis
trict, Nevada He came out for the spec
ial purpose OF going over and through the
properties OF the Seven TTOughs Coali-
ton and the Seven TrOughs Mining COM
Danies, and to get an intelligent line on
the camp in general Mr.; Lewis IS quleI
observant individual who. in converse
ton impresses a listener with the Idea that
he knows more about mining than he
cares to show: who is ready TO absorb in
formation rather than impart any, but
withai a most courteous everyday man
of affairs.
during the afternoon, 1t IS little more
than two years since I was last in this
city Tt happened at that time that some
rich ores from the Seven TrOughs district
were being exhibited here At that time
] wondered that such apparently rich gold
ore could be seen and commented upon
with such little concern as appeared TO
possess those who saw it. Since that time
] have ofen wondered whether any great
excitement had resulted from the discov-
cries IN the district from which II came.
We have heard so little about Seven
TToughs in Chicago and the east that L
had conceived the notion that the ore
probably came from what had turned out
TO be one of the hot-air camps which had
little outside Of few specimens to back
up its claims to recognition. Now that
shown the results of steady, persistent
and telling work, I am all the more sur
prised that the district is not better
known. / fully appreciate the tact- now
ever. that the district was Just beginning
to make its mark when the panic came
on: and just at a time when the golden
bubbles of many OF the oyer-boomed Ne
vada camps began 20 break And to these
facts, in my judgment, may be attributed
the real reason why more attention has

Rswhide. Feb. Z.-The Yellowstone lease
on Coalition was the scene of a great
strike of high-grade ore last night in a
raise from the end of the long tunnel.
This morning the pay shoot on the foot

and carries punches of ore the size OF a
walnut that are half gold. Three feet of
ore alongside the rich shoot average $40

Boston, Feb 2.-The market opened this
morning comparatively strong and showed
a slight rally further up to noon. The
market then turned dull and sagged
toward the close. A decision in favor of
Calumet & Hecla in the Osceoia suit gave
the bulls courage which they soon lost,
however, as they found no public follow
ing. We look for a traders market for
some time yet, and believe prices will sag
lower We are liable any day to get more
liquidation such as we had last Saturday
and advise sales of stocks on the present
rally in order to be able to pick up bar
rains

OF sending forth reports of the lower
Yields, for the purpose of affecting
the market and increasing the price.
We do not pretend, to say. Reports
published from, various parts of the
state as to the Yields are conflicting.
Some are of the boom variety. One
published from Hettinger the other
day would indicate that the settlers
out that way have a vast fund of
prospective wealth in the yields of
various cereals. From the southern
and northeastern part, Of the state
there are some reports Of disappoint-
ing yields. Possibly there is nobody
in the state who is competent to put
an average yield upon the crop of
wheat, for the reason that few per-
sons have benin sail parts of the
state to form a 5udgment. The best
that can be gathered from the con-
ficting crop reports is that North
Dakota will contribute a fair share to
the wealth of the northwest.
