cyanide plant on tailings have been
discharged and Johns remains at the
helm. Chief engineer Hutchinson, Of
the Vulture company, arrived at the
mine from Boston short time ago.
and made a thorough inspection. His
business was to find why the mine was
not paying more than expenses.
The Vulture mill was handling its
full capacity of ESQ tons a day. The
mill was recovering practically all the
value, and bullion was being shipped
regularly, but the bullion was not suf
ficient to pay expenses. 1t is generally
believed that work will be resumed
on its former scale in the fall Much
development work has been done in
the last few months. The shaft was put
down to the S00-foot level and cross
cut run to the ore. A number of drifts
and slopes were run in this ore, which
proved to be of the same high quality
as that on the upper levels.

FRISCO co. TAKES OVER
BURNS RANCH PROPERTY

The Frisco Mines and Power COM
pany this week took over the old
Burns ranch property from Osa Walk
er, paying him nearly $4,000 for the
water right Its mines are situated in
Mohave county, Arizona. It is the in
tention Of the company to at once lay
pipe line from the spring to the
camp of the company at the Gold
Crown mines, where the water will be
used for milling and power purposes.
While no regular cleanup has yet
been made the heading of all the ore
so far milled shows q value of S12.35
and the tails show a saving of 90 per-
cent. The samples of the mine run
gave an average of $3.50. The COM
pany is to install 10 stamps in the
mill to prepare the ore for conicaI
ball mill, and the tube milling which
will give the mill capacity of IS
tons daily which later will be added
to until a capacity of at least 500 tons
daily is reached.
