the drlll1nRS on the lease.
Mr.. Wolfe, manager of the
Yankee of Hattenville,
reports that he is sinking two
shafts into an extremely rich ore
bed, it being the same that the
Golden Hen to the north ana the
Willow Branch to the south have
in their present diggings. This
means a big thing for the Miami
Yankee, as it insures it a large
tonnage to mill.
Work on the new mill of the
Tennessee Metal Producing Co.
was suspended during the bad
weather, but is under full head
way this week. All the work at
the mill proper will be completed
this week. The tramway will
possibly take another week to
complete. The McAllister mill
of this company is running
steadily and has several cars of
fine ore in its bins at the present
time.
The big Mission mill is being
tried out, and some adjustments
have been found to be necessary,
and these items are having the
attention of the company at the
present time. The underground
workings are being arranged to
conform to the new location of
hosting, and the new work is
proving the extension of the
same ore bed that has always
been so prolific of rich ore in
this great mine. 1t is expected
that everything will be in readi-
ness to start it off the first of
the coming week at its full capa-
city of 400 tons per day.
Owing to the beastly weather
the past two weeks the amount
Of ores produced and marketed
has been remarkably light. But
with the return of our usual
winter weather the output will
attain its normal quantity. Many
Of the mills have their bins filled,
holding the ores produced until
the ore market becomes normal.
The smelters finding they could
not lap up the surplus zinc ores
in the district at the bottom
price, raised their bidding the
past week until SAB per ton was
offered freely Saturday last. Lead
was steady at $50, notwithstand-
ing pig lead advanced during the
week, showing how decidedly
this product is manipulated by
the Guggenheims.
1t is reported that the Omaha
Petersburg Mining Company will
let the contract for its big 400
ton mill in the near future. Sew
eral plans and specifications have
been submitted and gone over,
and the most complete and at
the sametime the most economi-
cal plan, is the one designed by
Thomas lakewood and worked
out by W. C. Dills, and submit
ted by the Hood Imp. Co. It is
on the principal of the sizing
system, introduced into this dis
trict by Mr.. lakewood, and is
the result of the studied condi-
tions which have to be reckoued
with in saving the ores of this
field. All of the parties connect
ed with this design are Baxter
people and we should be much
gratified to see the construction
of this splendid mill, awarded to
