Especial Correspondence 10 Morning sournaiI
Silver City. N. NJ, Jan. 13.-Tht
Last Chance mill in the Mogollor
district will soon be grinding away
with forty stamps, as a large force OF
men is now at work on the new adj
dition containing twenty stamps, the
plant having previously had the same
number. j. b. Byers is supervising
the construction work which Is being
rushed as rapidly as possible.
Everywhere in the Mogollon coun-
try and the other districts tributary
TO Silver City, unusual activity Is re-
ported. The Silver City Independent
has the following notes of interest in
the mining industry:
One of the new No. 23 Star drills
which the Savanna Copper company
Will place in operation at the Copper
Gulf camp in the Burros arrived yes
terday and was being unloaded from
the cars preparatory to its removal to
hat camp. 1t is built along some
what different lines from the famous
cyclone drill, and instead of having
to be hauled from place to place by
horses 1t is traction geared and fur
nishes Its own motive power. This
big, new drill makes a full carload,
not only so far as weight is concern
ed, but as regards bulk also.
Rumors of the early construction
of a mill on the Deadwood property
are again rife. Earl C. C~leaveland,
the manager, is still confined to his
home with q broken leg and will
neither confirm nor deny them. 1t is
said, though not authoratively, that
the work will be started just as soon
as he is able to be around again.
The Socorro Mines company expects
to start up it's mill again in about ten
days, when a test run of the filters,
which heretofore have not been en-
tirely satisfactory, will be made UNI
der the supervision of w. Rowland
Cox of the engineering firm OF Spur
e. Cox of New York, and Mr.. Knukle,
q we'll known mill expert. The wood
proposition at the power plant, I'M
der the direction of p. J.. Riedlinger,
is progressing nicely. The vicinity
of that plant now has the appearance
of a small town, as the company is
working between rs and 100 men
chopping and hauling wood, besides
hiG GSuio lOlCC VI CiiSlitCiCt iilG~
men, etc. e. d. Mcintosh has opened
q branch store near the power plant
and is doing q big business.
Cooney.
There is considerable activity among
the mining companies at Cooney. The
Enterprise Mining company expects
to start up its mill within the next
ten days and now has a large force of
men at work. The Cooney Console
dated is making preparations to start
work on a large scale. Clarence Nc
Farland has been appointed mine
foreman for this company, and al
present every effort is being made to
get the mine pumped out and cleaned
up generally.
Drills for Burros.
Another No. 6 Cyclone drill and
boiler for the Mangas Development
company arrived in this city last
wee and was hauled out to the COM
pany's camp in the Burro mountains
Sunday. The drill was hauled from
the depot to George Everard's black
smith shop, where the heavy pieces
were removed from the upper part
OF the machine so 1t would not be-
come top-heavy on its fourteen mile
journey over the mountain roads. Mr..
Everard also re-ironed the pole so
