Compared with the production of 1907
this is an increase of 1888 fine ounces

however, showed marked decrease. the
output la 1905 being 4.013 900 fine ounces

Henry krumb Is Satisfied With
Result of Development and
Ore Values.

Henry Krumb. one of the best known
mining engineers OF the country re-
turned 10 his Salt Lake Office yesterday
from Arizona. where he Is directing the
development work on number of cop
per properties, but more especially the
Inspiration Copper possessions. MIR.
hrumb stated that while there was a
great deal Of work going on. and splen-
dld results are being secured on the In
Splrnuon, TO one acquainted with the
work IL is mostly routine.
The steam hoist has been installed
over the Joe Bush shaft" said Mr..
krumb 10 The Tribune, "and the now
compressor also Is ready for operation.
and these recent additions will permit
much better work from now on. The
drill work Is producing some very llnc

are exceptionally good and demonstrate
that we arc going 10 have q very large
tonnage of copper ore. The grade is
somewhat lower than some OF the other
Arizona copper mines. but It will be
plenty good enough.
In the drifts from the Scorpion shaft
a decided improvement in the grade OF
ore is now noted, and this is most en-
couraGing. Everything is lively and sat
,siactory. Fine progress Is being made
with the installation of the Ray Con-

VISIT OF EXPERT
TO COLUMBUS CON.
Examination of Property Gre,
ates Interest in Ranks of
the Stockholders.
PURP0RT OF VISIT
NOT YET EXPLAINED
Various Theories INDUCED in,
None of Which May BE
Near Truth.

Considerable interest has been aroused
by an examination that has been in
progress for the past ten days or two
weeks at the Columbus Consolidated
property in Alta. 1t Is known that a
we'll known mining engineer has been
underground at tho Columbus, and that
he is likely TO return for more extend
ed examination within a short time. 1t
Is a matter OF much speculation locally.
and many arc wondering II some OF the
big interests behind the company are
preparing for some new move which VIII
affect the corporation in any way.
One theory is that some large interests
arc trying 10 find out II the future of
the Columbus Is sufficiently promising
TO justify the payment OF the assess
ment recently levied. and another theory
advanced is to the effect that depart
urc is 10 be made in the future develop
ment OF the property.
~ tho present time the Columbus Is
opened to the 400 foot level. TO which
depth the present pumping facilities are
considered sufficient for long umc TO
come. There may he some doubt, how
mcnt To allow much deeper work, al
though some stockholders believe that
another level could be added without
any more pumping machinery. The
new drain and working tunnel beneath
the present workings, and this tunnel.
IL driven. will DO 1000 feet In length,
1t has been estimated that the cost OF
driving the tunnel VIII be $40 per foot
or $4,000. and the advlsablity Of the
work has been urged on more than one
occasion, since the company during the
height OF It's water trouble has been
known To spend as much as $4,000 III
two months Kidding the drifts from wa
ter, during which period no development
work was possible, The tunnel would
tap not over fifty feet below the bottom
OF the workings on the 400 level and
this has been one serious objection
raised to the expenditure OF such sum
Of money. But it is pointed out In an
swer that the tunnel would probe at
least 5000 feet OF ground across which
extends a gigantic dixie, cut by numer-
Gus ross-Hssures, which should be pro-
ductlve of mineral. and which territory
could only be opened now by drifting
over 1000 feet on the 400 level, involving
a large expense and unsatisfactory
working facilities In the long run.
The management the first Of the week
again set the mill in motion. and the
are being piled up ponding
the Improvement in the road Of Little
wnick is now impossible.
The snowslIdes of the first OF the year
tore out so much of the tramway from
the mine to Tanners Flats that there is
doubt IL this can ever be repaired for
use There are many important items,
therefore. to be considered In the affairs
n the Columbus Consolidated. and an
expert examination is not a surprising
