SEVEN TROUGHS DISTRICT
IS BEGINNING TO PICK UP

A letter from J. H. Andrig. who is op-
Grating In the Seven TrOughs district
says that things are looking up over there
and particularly in the Vernon end OF
the district in his lease on the Golden
Treasure Mr. Andrig reports that ne is
getting some good ore and lie is conf
dent Of making a good thing ont Of the
proposition before long
The letter also states that the Florence.
or Harris lease. on the Seven TrOughs
company's property. is developing into a
big thing and he expresses the opinion
that II IS going to make a lot of money
for those interested. Fred Preston. leas-
ing on the Seven TrOughs Knickerbocker
is sackiDg good ore and the new custom
mill is now running on the dump ore from
the BuckhOrn. which the milling company
recently purchased. The Regain Lease
company is preparing TO resume opera
lions and the Wild Bull IS also getting
ready TO make the fur fly once more
The Seven Troushs company has been in

MILL
At CANNON BALL
Manager Geo. z. Edwards Re-
ports Plant Will Start Dur
ing the Month.

George Z. Edwards, manager of the
Cannon Ball Consolidated company's
properties in the Little Smoky district,
Idaho. came down from camp yesterday
morning, this being his first appearance
at home since last spring. During his
absence he has been crowding develop
ment and getting everything in readi-
ness for the productive campaign that is
to be inaUgurated before tie close of the
present month.
I'VE now have the battery Of ten 1000
pound stamps set, the concentrating ia
bles are placed, and the thirty Iineal
feet of amalgam plates, the boilers, en-
gines, etc, are all in position and the
work now in hand is the making Of final
adjustments and the clearing up Of odds
and ends in the arrangement of the
plant, some Of which could not be at
tended to until several of the little miss
ing parts were secured from the ma
chinery houses. I shall leave again in
a day or two and get the mill ready to
start before the end Of the present
month"
Manager Edwards confirmed the rows
of a few days ago that a body of fine
shipping ore had been opened up in the
raise that is being made 10 connect the
lower tunnel with the bottom of the
shaft that was sunk something like fifty
feet in ore before the tunnel was Driven
in on the vein for a distance of $50 feet,
all the way in ore. The high-grade
streak, cut at a height of thirty feet
above the tunnel, proved to be ten feet
thick, but no effort is being made to
mine in it at the present time, as Man
ager Edwards first wants TO get the
shaft and lower workings connected UP
and provide good ventilation for the
day when real mining begins. With this
connection made, chutes will be put in
and Slopes started, while raises will
likely be made in other portions Of the
vein. 1t is not necessary to deal with
the values contained in the ore at the
Cannon Ball; that has been explained
several times during the past few
months. The good part Of the news
brought down by Manager EdW ards is
found in the fact that The milling plant
is almost ready for operation and the
mine is in shape to keep il running on
rock that will average around $50 a
ton.

OIL COMP ANY
STOCK LISTED
Foreign CapitaI-Backed Spring
Valley Corporation Makes
Fine Statement.

The first listing Of an oil company
stock ever made on the Salt Lake Stock
| & Mining exchange became an accom-
| plished fact yesterday, when the listing
| committee approved the application of
! the International Petroleum & Oil De-
velopment company, limited. All of the
data supplied by the company carries
/ the conviction that The corporation is
a powerful one and that it is going to
make a noise in the Oil-producing bust
ness in the near future and probably cut
a wide swath in the coal mining game,
as well, The company is backed almost
entirely by European capital, which has
been and is being enlisted in the enter
prise by r. Il. Lenkeit, who heads the
company as its president.
The statement filed with the listing
committee Of the exchange shows that
the company is capitalized for s., O00, 900
in shares of 81 par, and Of which 1000, -
900 shares is designated as treasury
stock, with ,005 shares issued
and outstanding. In addition to
the unissued treasury stock, the report
states that there is $780, cash on hand
while the company has no debts. Allan
H Mackenzie is secretary and L. Auer-
bach treasurer of the company, while
Howard w. ThrOckmortOn is consulting
engineer. The company's eastern head
quarters is in Boston and the local Of
fees of the company are with ThrOck-
morton & Co., the banking and broker
age firm,
The company's oil lands are all located
in the famous Spring Valley field, Uinta
county, Wyoming, and include $3.50
acres, of which 100 acres are patented
and the balance in process of patenting,
together with 1920 acres of coal land,
held under option, located two and one
quarter miles from the big coal camp Of
Kemmerer, WyO., and other extremely
valuable assets.
Two producing wells have already
been developed and, with the plans now
maturing worked into reality, the COM
pany expects to be producing oil at the
rate of 200 to 500 barrels a day during
the next few months. This is to be
made possible through the addition of
much equipment that is covered by an
option which the company has taken
and paid for, subject only to an expert
examination, Of the entire plant of the
American Oil company. This includes
five standard drilling rigs and two port
able prospecting outfits, with all tools
and appurtenances, seven houses and all
other equipment, with teams, wagons
and pumping outfits, to say nothing of
10000 feet of lumber, the market value
Of which is better than O,OOO. On the
property that goes with this option are
five producing wells at the present time,
so that the estimated production of the
International company, as given above,
can hardly be claimed to have been ex-
aggerated.
The oil lands of the company flank the
Union Pacific railroad for a distance of
Oh no -
Antelope, Carter and Glencoe, all being
contiguous to the company's productive
territory.
The listing committee of the ex-
change has therefore been congratulate
ing itself on the fact that the first oil
company to list its shares is one of such
magnitude and evident substantially.

Otherwise Quiet and Steady.

There was nothing particularly out of
the ordinary in the action Of the market
yesterday other than the advance of hex

Tor the fact that report is out to the eff
rect that whaling big strike has been
made IN the cOmpany's property. This
news was not Haunted in the teeth Of

SHOWN a still greater move in the stock.
Lots OF Sioux Consolidated came out dur
ing the day and the price was lowered a
point or two as a result. However, this
stock is so well protected that there is
little danger Of the bears getting a grip
