within the narrowest range OF the year.
The week closed with little change from

chiefly to the continued strength Of the

UTAH PLAYED GENEROUS

Frederick J. Lyon, vice president Of the
United States Smelling In charge of oper-
atlOns says I'm the annual report;
There is sufficient tonnage In sight in

ular shipments on the present scale for "A
number of years. What little cAplora-
ton work was done during the past year
yielded gratifying results. easily adding
as much TO tho available ore reserves as
was extracted Ore mined and shipped
to the Midvale smelter amounted To 49,
G76 tons, The value of the ore was con-
siderably enhanced by the installation in

electrostetc process of separation BY
this process the zinc contained IN tho
1re is separated and made TO yield revc-
nue, Before the installation OF this proc
ess the zinc was not only total loss.
but il added on account OF its refractory
nature materially to tho difficulty and
cost of smelling.
''At the Centcnnial Eureka mine pros
pecting was carried on with satisfactory
results. Tho shaft WAS sunk TO depth
of 200 feet The shipments OF orc from
this mine during the year amounted TO
100 430 tons.
"At the Midvale smelter s73 900 tons OF
charge were treated during the year, Tho
lead smelter operated practically to its
fun capacity most of tho time, remark
able record In view OF tho small tonnage
offered for sale on account OF the low
price OF metals.
"The system of chemical treatment of
the smelter gases and subsequent nlter-
Ing in a haghouBe was In operation
throughout the year, and 1t accomplished
all that was expected OF It. Not only
have all damaging effects o. the gases
been eliminated, but the products re-
covered I'm the playhouse have gone long
way toward defraying tho cost of oper-
