GETTING INTO COOP ORE.

The leasers operating on the prop
erty of the Manhattan Earl Mining
company are each wearing that smile
that won't come off. Three leases
are operating on this ground and
each is in milling ore of a good
grade. Veith and Swanson, who are
operating lease No. s., are getting
ready to put up a hoist, and Walter
Meissner, who has lease No. 3, will
also put up a hoist. Matthews and
Kennedy are using a windlass at
present on their lease No. /.

sowELL-sEARIGHT LEASE.

Sowell and Starlight continue to
take out and pile up ore on the
dump at their lease on the Console
dated. They recently made a run on
ore from their lease that returned an
average value Of $50 per ton in gold,
and it is thier belief that tho ore now
being extracted will average equally
as well. The extent of the ore body
that the lessees are now working in
is not known as yet, but in the stope
every round Of shots breaks down
from four to six tons.

Cosby Report

A report which has been diligently
circulated throughout the press of
the country and which has plainly
emanated from sources interested in
influencing the price OF certain min
ing stocks, has been given its quietus
by George Wingfield in an interview
in which he assures a Chronicle rep
re~sentative that neither he nor any
engineer in the employee of his firm
has ever stated that the Red Top
vein does not enter the territory of
the Booth company. On the con-
trary, the vein itself, if not the ore.
shoot, enters the Booth claims and
traverses 1t for a considerable dis
lance.
II have said that the pay shoot
has not been located in the Booth"
said Mr.. Wingfield at the Goldfield
hotel, but never have intimated
that the Red Top vein did not enter
that ground, and such a statement is
ridiculous, as anyone knows who Is
familiar with the ground. The Red
Top vein is one of the most consist
ent surface groupings in that part of
the district and can be seen plainly
from a distance running directly
through the Booth and toward Co
lumbia mountain. We hope that the
pay shoot may be found to extend
into this claim, but thus far 1t has
not been located"
Regarding the project, rumors OF

ToNoPAH MINING.

The amount of work done in the
Tonopah Mining properties during
the week amounted to 510h feet.
OF this amount 286 feet was done in
the Mixpah, twenty feet in the Red
Plume and 204h feet in the Silver
Top. The diamond drill has adj
vanced thirty-two feet. The drill is
running a great deal easier % that
the casing has been added and the
bit cores better. The record distance
made since the drill has been Install
ed was seventeen feet in one day.
The sation at the 1900 level has
been nearly completed and will be
ready for the pump within a few
days. The pump and machinery is
now enroute and Is expected every
day. A crosscut has been started
north from this level where the
stump win be dug.
Sinking will be started in the Red
Plume shaft within several days and
the preparatory work is being done
now, consisting mostly of repairing
the shaft.
The second level of the Silver TOP
shaft shows no change and in the
east drift of the westerly workings
they have started to work back to
connect with the old workings
They are driving this drift along on
the ledge. The increase of surface
water in one of the Slopes and drifts
on this level has caused the i~nstalla'
ton of asmall pump, which Is now
running. This was installed to keeT
the water from going down to tht
lower levels.
On the 240-foot level work is pro
crossing in a raise that will event
ually connect with the 140 level. A
present the raise is in in ore and il
also expected to connect with an
other ore body beneath the 40 level
The work is progressing in TIL
crosscut north on the east side Of tn,
440 level near the shaft. The west
erly workings have seemed to en-
countered the Burro fault.
On the $40 level the most easterl

workings is in about 304 feet an

A machine has been placed in thi
drift and drifting west along th

during the past week at the Belmont
amounted to IT'S feet. The general
appearance of the mine is excellent
and considerable development work
is being done.
On the 900 level the west drift has
advanced six feet and Is now out a
distance Of 1873 feet. The vein has
been cut by a fault and stopping has
been started on the vein along the
back of the drift. On the south vein
on this level the usual amount Of
stopping is being done.
In the west drift on the south vein
Of the 1000 level an advance has
been made during the week of
twenty-five feet and the drift is now
ont 1872 feet, and shows four feet of
ore of a milling grade in the face.
The east crosscut from "A" vein is
out 511 feet, having advanced forty
one feet, with no change in the for
nation. This drift has about twenty
feet further to go before it reaches a
point directly beneath the old Bel
mont shaft and then they will start
the work of cutting a station. The
desired point should be reached by
the first of the month and when the
station is completed a raise will be
started to connect with the shaft
several hundred feet above. This
connection is desired for ventilating
the lower levels. The west drift on
the Occidental vein has advanced
eighteen feet and is out ninety-two
feet and shows about two feet of low
grade ore in the face.
Raise No. i from the 1909 west
drift is IL sixty-two feet with an ad-
vance of twenty-one feet. The tor
of this raise shows stringers and
punches OF quartz carrying values
No. 2 raise, $50 feet west of No. /
has advanced twelve feet and is w
eighteen feet and has about three
feet of broken vein matter mixed
with waste but which carries fail
values. Some stopping is being car.
ried on both east and west of THU
raise and the ledge there shows aboui
two and one-half feet of good grade
ore.
There is no change in the bottom
of No. 1856 winze, which is nov
down ITO feet from the 1000 level
East drift No. 2, which is 125 feet
below the 1000 level, has advanced
eighteen feet and is out about eighty
seven feet. This drift shows abou'
two feet of ore in the face.
On the 1000-foot level, raise No.
has been advanced twenty-five fee
during the week and has connected
with the 1000 level, a distance 0
ITO feet. This raise has had a veil
of ore averaging five feet in width al
the way up and they are now prepar
ing to stope or it from the no.
level. The stope in the west drift
shows a vein from five to ten feet il
width of a fair grade milling value
which carries lunches of high grad
scattered throughout, making a goo
grade of milling ore.
