Eureka, June 2S.-The chicf Con-
solidated mine sent to market this
Week d fifty ton shipment Of ore and
he management sees no rcttson why
the mine cannot continue the SNIP
&lnents Of ore, on u small .Seilesas ie s
for an indefinite time with good PROS
poets for increased Tonnage as time
and work in the property so on. Inc
ii:ist few weeks has Witnessed some
important changes underground.3 an 20
now ii seems That tire propertN55W y
soon take its PLACE among the steaas
producers Theanews that a strike mad
+ been madeFjn a Wine from the l, guy
level gained rapid circulation last
week. and when asked regarding me
strife Manager Fitch stptcd that there
is ore exposed in three different
x places IN the nine at this time. ms.
Il strike referred TO above was ened
aiili, a few days ago and besides this
there Is u splendid showing OF ore IN
arise some eighty feet above the El.oVo
level. In addition, TO the deycloP ille I, ny,
work which is being carried on IN tt,ei
Chief two shirts are kept continuously
busy In the shaft which is being SUNK
to che 1890 level When ore is once
encountered III the Tintic district IL
a is usual an easy matter to- place 5tIe
property upon Il self-supportng basis
because the ore deposits arc most
! certain to be permanent aud. enlarge
as the ore Is mined. This leads 20 the
belief that this newly organized pro-
38perty will he successful from the start.
& Another shipment Of - tons of ore
was hauled over from tie Lehi finite
+ property to the Flntlc srriclter last
week The ore carries better than 5g
J, Der cent lead, tWeity-fiNe ounces in
{ silver and enough iron to make it
desirable product foi smelling ptr-2
poses. There is quite q lot of this
class Of ore opened up in the nine ana
the values increase somewhat rs Tn ttle
work progresses. Another shipment
6 from the property will be made with
III a few weeks. Tho difficulty in con-
aection with the marketing OF the ore
from that part OF the district is the
8 haul by team, the HomansNllle I I'LL
being SO steep and rough that u four
horse team can haul but two tons a

PAIRING another shipment which Will
he sent out the first of the week and
at Is understood that the ore body has
been opened Up In such manner that
a carload of ore can be broken down
aaac CHI week, and in the future the out
put of the mine will probably four
carloads a month When the ore I
encountered upon the lower levels the

heavier VIII III
