Phoebe is in the spot light of the
mining world now, says the Pioche
Record. The transfer of Nevada
Utah to Ernest r. Woolley has created
new interest, and from this on Phoebe
will show results.
Mr.. Woolley, who is president and
general manager of the Nevada Utah,
arrived in camp last Tuesday on a
special train accompanied by Fred X,
Woolley, who is to be the new fnan
cial manager for the crowd; H. G. Par
ker, who has been selected as superln-
tendent; A. H. Godbe and Z. L. Godbe,
of the Consolidated Phoebe and Prince
Consolidated mines; j. A. Kirby of the
Phoebe King mine, and r. K. Cobb,
the wellknown Salt Lake broker.
While here Mr.. Woolley refused to
disclose the identity of the men asso-
eiated with him in the Nevada Utah
undertaking, yet he asserted that there
are at least three persons identified
with him who rank very high in the
mining and financial world.
After an inspection of the Console
dated Phoebe and other mines just on
the outskirts of the town of Phoebe :
mines in which Nevada Utah is inter
ested; also the Day mine at Jack Rab-
bit, President Woolley informed the
editor of the Record that he had given
orders to resume operations at the Day
mine Immediately, and a crew of men
were put to work yesterday morning

WILL START UP THE DAY
MINE IN PIOCHE DISTRICT

to repair the railroed track between
Phoebe and the Day mine.
But the bit of news released by Mrh
Woolley that is particularly satisfying
to most Piocheites is the announce
ment that Raymond & Ely No. 5 shaft
is to be re-equipped and again placed
in commission. From this shaft it is
the purpose to drive to the Yuba dke,
from which some of the richest ore
ever found in the district has been ex-
tracted and in which remains q
world of wealth.
While Mr.. Woolley talked conserva-
lively and ~guardedly, he indicated
that his company would open a very
active campaign and that plans have
been made to carry on some very ex-
~tensive operations in this district
which will include the construction Of
large reduction works.
The party returned to Salt Lake
late Thursday night, but Supt. Parker
will return in about ten days, when
he will get into the harness and down
to work.
1t will take anywhere from 40 to 90
days to get Raymond and Ely No. 5
shaft in shape for business.
1t is believed by those who have
been watching Nevada Utah move
ments of latae that it will be a matter
of only a short time until a consolida-
ton of the Nevada Utah, Consolidated
Phoebe and Prince Consolidated will
be brought about.

With a record for the past week of
522 feet of new ground broken in
pushing the various pieces of develop
ment and prospecting work in the diff

at $4,000, and 80 tons of concentrates,

there is little need of calling atten-
tion to the excellent work being done
in both departments of the Tonopah
Mining company's plant, and that the
mine, already noted the world over for
its richness, is producing as heavily as
at any time in its history. Though
the weekly report of the underground
workings show but little changes from
week to week, owing to the magnitude
of the operations, nevertheless at the
end of each week the various workings
on ore have been extended and have
blocked out hundreds of tons of new
ore, with the result that the, reserves
of the mine are being added to con

GOES EAST FOR RICH OIL DEAL.

SANTA BARBARA, Nov. IL. vii
liam Miller Graham, one of Califor-
MA oil magnates, is en- route to New
York city to close an oil deal of i'm
mense proportions. He is to meet
John Hays Hammond and other mem
bers Of the Continental Petroleum com
pany, which is struggling to defeat the
standard Oil company in its effort to
control the supply of oil to be used in
the future by transatlantic steamers.
A few months ago William Mitchell
and A. Chester Beatty of New York
came to California and visited the oil
fields. They were convinced that oil is
superb for fuel, and since it has been
adopted by one of the largest steamer
1t is believed all will use it in a short
time.
Graham controls enough California
OIL to supply all the boats, and it is
known that he has entered into a deal
with the New York company. The
visit to Graham in this city two weeks
ago OF half a dozen New York multi
m~iiiionaires is also considered signifi
can't. After terminating the New
York transaction Graham will depart

healthy surplus to be added to the
treasury each quarter after paying the

broken on the different levels through
