Mines of the County

prosecuted on the properties.
Eli Hilty was out at the Ruth mines
the first of the week. Work is being
carried on in the new shaft with all
possible speed and it is expected to
reach the big ore body within short
time. The Ruth is one of the best
looking properties in the Silver Creek
section and is sure to be a producer.
Frank Dudek and co-Owner in the
tungsten mines, twelve miles east OF
Yucca, were Kingman visitors this
week. Mr. Dudek stated that the
mines were looking well, the last work
showing up some nice ore bodies. The
mines are well situated for economic
work and the grade of the ore makes
it possible to concentrate all classes at
a profit.
The Needles Mining & Smelling
company is getting things In shape to
begin the shipment of ores from the
Banner mines, at Stockton Hill, and
the Tennessee mine, at Chloride. The
Banner will ship about one car day
and the Tennessee two cars daily.
The two properties will eventually
furnish large tonnage for the con-
centrator and smelter.
o. F. Hutchinson, of Seattle, Wash
ington, arrived in Kingman a few
days ago and has gone to the Expan-
sion camp. The Expansion company
will hold its annual meeting next
week and Mr.. Hutchinson came on to
attend. 1t is the intention of Mr..
Hutchinson to get things in good shape
before he starts on his vacation and
make things hum in and around the
big veins in Union Pass.
DR.. Charles B. Dotterer, of Boyer
town, Pennsylvania, accompanied by
some of the stockholders of the Re-
demption Copper company, was in
Kingman several days this week at
tending a meeting of the stockholders.
DR.. Dotterer believes the company has
a big property and that with neces-
sary development it will become one
of the large producers of the Chloride
section.
Matthew Carr, one of the old timers
of this county, came in from the Coast
last Thursday morning and is visiting
old friends around town. For years
Mr.. Carr has been resident of Cedar,
where he is heavily interested in min
ing. He expects to have his mines
operated on large scale hereafter, a
corporation having had favorable re-
port on them and are now preparing to
begin the work of development.
B. D. Lunceford came in from the
Tom Reed mill, last Tuesday, with a
45,000S bar of bullion, the product of
about three weeks run of ten stamps.
Mr.. Lunceford reports that the mill
is doing splendid work and that the
mine was improving with every foot
of new work. When the additional
thirty stamps are put in commission
the output of this company will be
about equal to that of the Gold Road.
P. H. Mclaughlin, superintendent
of the c. o. D. mine, is in Kingman.
He reports that in the Slope from the
second level of the mine he has Sc
cured some ore that gave a value of
72O5s in gold and silver, the gold run
ming phenominally high. The ore
from this Slope will average higher
than any ore ever taken from that rich
property. At the 2SO level crosscut
has opened new vein, the ore being
quite rich. The new vein was within
a few feet of the shaft and has been
opened to ascertain just what it looks
like. At all points in the vein the ore
is showing fine and when the 300 drift
from the old works is reached it is
expected that the mine will make a
phenomenal output.
Among the big mine operators of
the county to arrive in Kingman this
week are John Empey and w. H.
Young. of San Francisco, p. E. G. Burke.

Angeles. The gentlemen went out to
