The New Start

Mr. WHY'S in some way met the overdue
pay roll-took over the plant and con-
trived to fill his customers orders.
Then the cry came for more cars from
every place where an Overland had been
sold AS the new cars went out the de-
mand became overwhelming. The factory
capacity was outgrown in short order.
Then tents were erected.
Another factory was acquired, then an
other; but the demand soon outgreW all
three.
During the next fiscal year these factories
sent out 4,075 Overland cars. Yet the
demand was not half supplied.

Copper Queen Properties.

The new motor cars which have re- gently been placed on the 400 level of the Holbrook shaft have a capacity of 34 cubic feet and greatly facilitate the handling of ore on this level and require no more labor and attention than cars of a much less capacity. At the Sacramento shaft the prospect tunnel being driven on the 700 foot level is now in a distance of 700 feet and in a rich quartzite ore. It is ex- pected that this tunnel will disclose a large and rich body of ore and work in it will continue until the nature of the ground is thoroughly determined. One of the largest cOmpressors in the west has been installed in the Copper Queen power house and when in com plete running order will furnish power for the drills and hoists at all the shafts of the Copper Queen company. The Gardner and Holbrook shafts where the hosting power is steam will install the air power as soon as the  change can be effected. At the White Tail Deer property, where a shaft is being sunk by contract, gasoline en- gine is being set up and the muck will be hoisted much more rapidly and less labOrously than heretofore. This shaft is now down depth of 45 feet and continues in blue lime rock. When a depth of l50 feet has been reached drifting will be started and the nature of the ground thoroughly prUspected. At the Lowell shaft some very rich ore has been found in a winze sunk on the I6JO level to con- meet with the same level in the Sacra- mentO.-Bisbee Review.

shore of the San Juan river, which cuts a canon through the oil fields 1000 feet high. The more venture some prospectors, have seen oil creep ing out on the rocks at dizzy heights. The town has been named Bluff Utah. It is planned to extend a pipe line from Bluff to Gallup, N. M., on the Santa Fe, a distance of 100 miles in a southwesterly direction.
 Much of the land around the oil fields has already been withdrawn at the suggestion of the United States geological survey, and will have to be filed on under the new laws allowing the government to get its money back at or cents a barrel instead of un- der the placer act, as has been the GUS tom for years. Had this law been passed before the discovery of the Midway fields in California the royal ties alone would have pald the ex- penses of the whole geological survey force for a year.-Las Vegas Optic.

the month were 62S, ,464s. The official statement is made that there is no ne- cessity for shipping any more high grade as sufficient funds are on hand to pay the dividend without impairing the surplus of Sl.OOO,OOOs which the company is carrying.
 The company is operating 30 stamps below normal owing to the shortage of water.
 The Goldfeld Florence Co. is also operating on a reduced capacity and has been somewhat embarrassed dur ing the week on account of a lack of water. 4t is not likely, however, that any danger will be experienced from any extended shortage of water, as a new supply is being secured from the mine. Both Lockhart and Parker are here and are likely 10 hold a meeting at any time and discuss dividend pos sibillties.
 The Combination Fraction has also been troubled for lack of water and has been obliged to cut down prOduc- tion, though efforts are being made to get supply from an adjacent lease.

Syndicate in Control of Planet.

A Parker dispatch says: The churn drill operating on the Planet property has encountered a body of native cop per at a depth of 535 feet. The strik- ing of rich copper ore on the Planet is the most noteworthy development in this section for some months. The double compartment shaft is down 60J feet and about l, 100 feet Of drifting on this level has exposed large bodies of copper ore.
 The holes already put down by churn drills have disclosed pay ore bodies, but the one now being sunk has tapped what is considered to be the richest body of copper ore yet en- countered.
 It Is said on reliable authority that a branch line will be built from the A. X C. railroad to Planet in the early fall. when work will likely be started on a new shelter to replace the crude affair now on the property, and which was built a number of years ago.
 The last payment was made by the Lewishons for a controlling interest in the Planet on July 1, the developments during the past few months having been sufficiently encouraging.
 After considerable difficulty the churn drilling outfit for the Horn mines was transported to the property from Grammett, on the Parker cut off a few years ago. Owing to the condi- tion of the roads the heavy piece of machinery refused to run by its own power when a few miles out from Grammett, and it was necessary to take the machine apart and haul it by wagon to the mine.
 It is now practically assembled and will be ready for operation very soon. The first hole will be put down at the main camp, and the work will be rushed as fast as possible.
 The tunnel being driven on an ad- joining group is now in approximately 200 feet. An additional POO feet will be required to strike the ledge, which outcrops on the surface.

GoIdfeId Scarce of Water.

A Goldfeld dispatch says: For the first time in several years, lack of wa ter this week temporarily embarrassed all of the mills operating al Goldfeld. It is not likely that this shortage, how ever, will continue permanently as already steps have been taken to in- sure a better supply for the Goldfeld Consolidated Fraction mills.

Gallup to Have Pipe Line From Oil
 Fields

The Utah oil excitement is greatest in the San Juan fields in the south eastern part of the state. Experts state that the strike is far superior to the California product and the specific gravity reports show an oil that will bring 3.00S a barrel in the crude state in Denver.
 The wells show oil standing loo feet from the top. The Standard Oil com pany has large number of experts in the field trying to gain possession of the fields. They have made elaborate reports, but refuse to make them pub lie. The tract is ten miles long and twenty miles wide.

United Verde Extension Copper Go

Ever since William A. Clark opened up the famous United Verde mine. Jerome, Ariz., efforts have been made to find as rich ore in other sections of the Jerome camp, but in this no one has ever been successful, until within comparatively few weeks, when the United Verde Extension Copper Co.,, controlled largely by Louis E. Witch CT, formerly of Boston and now a mem Der of the New York Stock Ex- change, uncovered a body of ore through a small exploratory shaft, and the indications certainly are that the United Verde extension has, after many years of effort, found the ore outside of United Verde territory. C.. c. Burger, the inning and consulting engineer for the company, now in ArI- zona, wires: Our ore body is now down l75 feet long with face of the west drift still in ore. The last 100 feet of solid massive iron and copper sulphides, with good values in gold and silver. Crosscut shows it to be 30 feet wide. I believe that width will be greater and ore body will inn prove in depth, in size and in values" There are 340,OOO shares of the United Verde Extension, good proportion of it being held Tn New England. Some of it cost as high as 5S per share seven or eight years ago. The stock will soon be listed on the curb markets New York Mining Age.

Inventor of New Process Claims to
 Smelt all Ores.

Smeit all Ores.
 The newest process called the Kuen- gel method, has been highly recom- mended by mining engineers of re- pute, who state it has the ear marks of being an invention worth while, and not an addition to the large number of schemes, that have failed to work.
 The inventor, Charles A. Kuenzel, !. of Colorado, first encountered the smelters, when he became an ore shipper and it is claimed that the shelter is destined to establish new conditions that will amount to an in- dustrial revolution. As stated by the Mining Record, the announcement of the opening of the Kuenzel smelters is a proclamation of emancipation to the mine owners of the west.
 Three of the 50 ton furnaces at the new plant in Buena Vista, Colo, are now smelling metal from ore bought by the management. Five more 50 ton furnaces are rapidly nearing compile tion. The Kuenzel shelter announced that the total expense it will assess against the producer for treating ores will in no case exceed 4S a ton.
 The smelling of ores without the uses of fluxes, and without the atten- dant slags to run to waste, is a de- cided innovation, says Arthur Lake. While the possibility of disintegrating the ore into its metallic and gangue components by subjecting it to high heat is fact not ne~, yet it has not heretofore been used in practical smelling. The Kuenzel process util- izes this principle in its smelt and the lower the temperature required. The slags used in starting the smelt are brought from old dumps and it is esti- mated that from these profit of from 3S to 5S ton can be made.
 The process, says Prof. Lake, con- sists, primarily, in subjecting ores to a very high heat, with direct contact to the flame. The success of the pro- cess rests in the regulation of the heat, so that the temperature is at no time too high or too low. Silicious ores can be fed direct to the furnace and high extraction made without trouble, though, of course, the greater the metal content of the charge, the quicker the smelt.
 The ores of zinc have no terror to this process. The treatment consist ing merely in the regulation of the heat.
 The furnace is merely slight modi- tication of the reverberating furnace. The features of the process consist principally in the generation of dry gas by the inventors patent appliance
 Oil is the only fuel used. But noth- ing like ordinary oil burners are used. The furnace is unlike any other. In principle it is analogous to the oxy-hy- drogen blow pipe. For average ore heat used is about 3.9OO degrees, but TOT refractory ores, With furnaces lined with highly resistant fire bricks, the temperature can be put up to 1900 degrees.
 There is no strong blast to aid com bustion. Air is compressed in the compressor to 80 pounds and delivered through nozzles entering the furnace at 10 pounds pressure.
 The cost of treating the ore aver ages about 45 cents per ton for actual operating expenses.
 It is the intention of the company to establish custom plants in such points as are accessible to mineral producing localities in the west, southwest and Mexico.-Denver Mining Record.

Big Ore Reserves in TOnopah Mines

Charles Knox, one of the leading op- orators in the Tonopah district, was a visitor in Salt Lake a few days ago, en route to his Tonopah headquarters from New York city. Mr. Knox stated that the Tonopah district had found its second wind.
 "Every indication shows that we have not done the big mining in Tono- pah yet" said Mir Knox. "The mines there have produced not less than 27,- GOO, ,OOOS worth of ore gross and we are just striking our gait. The develop ments on the Tonopah Belmont prop erty, east of the mountain, and the discovery of the lode porphyry on the 22OO level of the Tonopah Mining ter ritory prove the future possibilities of the district most positively.
 Back in l9O3-O4 J. E. Spurr, then with the United States Geological Sur vey, made an examination of the camp. The conclusions at which he arrived at that time, although they have since been controverted by other engineers, have been demonstrated absolutely correct. His book has been a text book for the district, and results, as say, have confirmed his report 10 the letter. Mr. Spurr is now with the Guggenheim interests, and he is mak- ing another examination of the camp at this time.
 The Tonopah Belmont property now has from 5,OOO,OOOS to 5000, ,OOOS in dividends in the recent developments east of the mountain. On the HOO level the management has drifted north for over 600 feet along the strike of the new vein without a break being found. The body averages twelve feet in width and above 30S per ton in value. A winze has followed the ore for loo feet and the management has raised almost to the ninth level, which work assures the Belmont 32O feet of depth on the dip of the vein and 600 feet along the strike, and this is the lower vein only. The shaft some time ago, l5' feet to the north, penetrated twenty-two feet of ore, giving absolute ly fifteen feet in width of high-grade milling ore, while some very rich ore occurred in the vein. some values going as high as 250S.
 "The Montana Tonopah is in better condition than usual. All the debts are paid, the treasury holds a surplus of 40, 0,OO0S, and the company is making 2O,OOOS net a month. There is more ore in sight in this mine today than there was some time ago when the wise ones gave Us just four months 10 run. If Spurs theories in regard to the Montana Tonopah are confirmed, the Montana Tonopah soon will be the largest property in the camp, as in her territory all the big veins will be found.
 ''Of the coming properties of Tono- pah believe the Mizpah Extension will be the most prominent, for recent developments have been very much in favor of this property holding the new vein. Some time ago the company drove the shaft to depth of $50 feet, but while a twenty-four-foot ledge was cut on the 5O0-fooU level, no pay ore shoot could be brought to light. The property is equipped to sink to the 2OOO level, and work will start next week to the lode porphyry, where crosscutting will be done to find the vein. Salt Lake Tribune.

MYSTERY STILL UNSOLVED.
How Bennettsyille Boys were Killed
May Never be Known.

Bennettsville, Dec. 3.-Since Wed
nesday morning the coroner's jury
has been inquiring into the cause of
the death of Prentiss Moore and Guy
Rogers, the two Bennettsville boys
who went hunting THANKSGIVING
morning, and were found dead in a
ditch Saturday. Late this afternoon
the jury announced as their verdict:
"Prentiss Moore and Guy Rogers
came to their deaths by gunshot
wounds in the hands of a party or
parties unknown to u.s."
Many witnesses were examined and
three or four negro men have been in
jail, held as suspects or witnesses.
There are those who hold to the idea
of foul play, while many believe that,
upon the theory of accident every fact
and circumstance is accounted for.
Still others think young Moore was
accidentally shot by young Rogers,
who then took his own life intention
