OH, ENGINES FOR
MOGOLLON MINES
Big Task of Moving Out the
Engines And Supply
inc the Oil.

Silver City, n. NJ. Aug. 12.-The new
oil engines with which the Socorro
mines and the Ernestine Mining COM
pany's plants at Mogollon are to be
equipped are now being tested out ana
shipped from the manufacturing plant
in New York City, and it is expected
that they will arrive here In the
course of few weeks, when the work
of transporting them to their destina-
ton in the mountains will begin
The Socorro Mines people Will instal
two engines of $50 horsepower each
and an auxiliary engine of $50 horse
power. The Ernestine company VIII
install two engines of 200 horsepower
each. The problem of transporting
these immense engines by wagon over
90 miles of mountain road is one that
will take the skill Of the most ex-
perienced freighter, as there are parts
of these largest engines that VIII
weigh 1900 pounds. They will con-
stitute the largest single piece of ma
chinery ever taken over the MogolIon
road.
The new type of engine has had a
thorough tryeut with the Deadwood
company in Mogollon and has proved
entirely satisfactory and is said to re-
duce the cost from $500 to 500 per
horse power per year. The oil used IN
these engines is fuel oil; it is explod-
ed in the cylinder as gasoline in gas
oline engine. The oil will all have to
be hauled from Silver City in tank
wagons. The Socorro Mines company
will use a carload of oil a week when
the new engines are in operation, and
to haul 1t will require six twelve-horse
outfits. hauling two tank wagons each.
Three outfits will be required to keep
the Ernestine company supplied with
oil

to $196 in gold. There are also
numerous open cuts along the
surface, that show good ore and
taken as a whole this group will
compare favorable with any in
the district.
On the Sivastika a shaft has
been sunk to a depth of 35 ft. on
a vein that is between four and
five feet wide, which assays $76
in gold and a small amount in
silver.
Aside from these claims, Miss
Smith owns the Hassayampa
claim, upon which vein has
been exposed in open cuts, that
pans well, and a tunnel has been
started to tap the vein at some
depth. Also a half interest in
the Port Arthur claim, from
which some of the finest speci-
mems of free gold ore ever found
in the district have been taken.
There has been very little de-
velopment done on this claim,
and the extent of the ore shoot
has never been determined.
Miss Helen Smith has followed
the mining game for years, and
besides being a good prospector
has been shrewed enough to
acquire some property in the
Coeur d'Alenes that brings her
in a nice revenue, besides a val
liable water right in old Mexico.

This group of three claims is
owned by Powlson and Chris

mile west of Dixie. A three foot
vein is exposed by 80 ft. shaft
and numerous pen cuts. A tunnel
has been started on the vein but
has not reached the ore shoot
yet. The ore is very free anC
averages about $40 in gold.
