COMP ANY WILL PROVE UP
 CLAIM Sanders Group of Mines Is to be Developed Without Delay Properties Are Located Near Skull Val1y
 Region

Articles of incorporation of the Skull Valley Mining and Milling company were filed for record yester- day, and eoineident with that legal move the taking over of the well known Sanders group of mining claims was consAmmated.
 The corporation is composed of S. J. McAfee, c. I. Williams and L. A. Flint, all of Colorado. The two former reached the mines a few days ago, and will be joiued later by MT. Flint.
 The company is g Colorado organ ization, and negotiations were orig inally started some months ago, at which time MT. Flint established a camp and gave the ground a prae- tical test, erecting several buildings and doing considerable prospecting on the ground. The new company con templates the placing of machinery for mine work, and the consideration of a reduction plant will also be taken up later. Twenty-two claims from the railroad station in Skull were taken over.
 They are situated about four miles from the railroad station, in Skull Valley, on the Copper Basin slope of the range, and have been under the ownership of Thomas NJ. Sanders and associates for several years. The lat ter has expended a considerable sum in opening them up, and on some oE the claims where the principal work is shown, splendid mineral conditions are prevailing. Favorable conditions are shown on the property for oper- ations on an economical basis, water being in abundance. while transpOr- tation facilities are reduced to a nominal basis. A considerable sum is said to have been paid by the new company on taking the mines over.

Excellent Results From Work Done on Good
 Mining Claims
Large Bar of Gold Is Brought Here to Be
 Sent to Mint
tFrom Tuesdays DailyJ

Three thousand dollars in one single gold bar and ear load of twenty five tons of concentrates, was the re- suit of a run of 200 tons of ore from the North CaprUoI, Hidden Treasure and Eberhardt mines, on Yynx Creek, made at the Poland mill, by Dyson, Taylor & Conner
 The big bar was brought to the city yesterday and the concentrates will be shipped in the next few days. The batch miIled will reach a value of about $35 per ion, and was taken out by this firm from development As a result of this splendid demon stratiOn the above firm of energetic young mining men will continue op- erations to depth on their group, and will have, in a short time, milling incoming yield They have pur, chased the Pine Mountain ten-stamp mill, and are overhauling tho same, which is situated about one-half mile from their properties.
 They will continue sinking on the Capitol, Hidden Treasure and Eber. hardt mines, in each of which the showing is attractive.
 They have ready for extraction a big tonnage from each, and for the present the mill will be run on the day shift only. The bullion re- ceived yesterday is the first prac. tical illustration this firm has made on the properties, and coming from a depth of less than one hundred feet shows the desirability of the group as a mining proposition of the future It also shows what muscle will ac, complish, when it is supported by practical consideration of under ground conditions, these young Oper. ators individually doing mine work as well as directing the performance of it.
 MT. Taylor, who reached the city yesterday, feels enthusiastic over the mill run. While in speaking of the condition of the properties as far as depth has been reached, states the vein is getting bigger and in geolOg ical makeup, is more uniform than at points heretofore reached. He will return to his camp in a few days. after the transaction of busi ness.
