Ray District Is Developing Rapidly

Development work is progressing at satisfactory pace in the Ray-Kelvin- Winkleman district. The Consolidat- ed company, operated on a mammoth scale, is nearing the production stage. The company will be shipping ore from the mines at Ray to the mill at Hayden within ten days, says the Ray Copper camp.
 George W. Bradley, in charge of surface work, has large force of men at Ray and Hayden. He expects to have the machinery for the first unit of the concentrate turning within thirty days. The big power plant is almost complete. It consists of four cylinder, triple expansion engines of 2,5O0 horsepower each. The total horse power of the plant, including the four generating sets with auxiler- ies, will be almost IA, 1000. The towers for the power transmission line from the plant at Hayden to the Ray are up and the wire is being strung. There are forty ore cars on the road, and are now expected to arrive any day. The 1000 gallon reservoir at Hayden is complete as well as a 400, O,OO0- ton domestic reservoir.
 All doubt about the erection of shelter at Hayden is removed by the fact that work is now in progress on the new shelter. About 75 per cent of the material is now on requisi- tion, and some on the ground. It is calculated the smelter will be ready to blow in by August 1. In the mean time concentrates will be shipped to Fl Paso.
 The shops and warehouses are con- plete at shaft No at Ray and about 80 per cent of the equipment for the ore crushing department. Some work is being done at shaft No. ?, which will be duplicate of No l. and under ground work is being rushed with vigor.
 The ore dump contains about I45,- 900 tons of reserve ore which will be drawn on as needed when shipment begins. What shaft No l lacks of furnishing sufficient to keep the cars going on the start will be supplied from the dump. There are now about l,5OO men on the pay roll of the com pany.-Bisbee Review.

Nevada Is Progressing.


 Nevada is making giant strides in the development of it's mineral wealth, and scarcely a week passes that does not record an important new discovery in some portion of the state. Some of these discoveries are in undeveloped sections and lead the way to the open ing of new camps. Others are in some of the old camps that may have be- come stagnant and they result in re- viving interest and activity in further development, frequently causing re- sumption of operations on properties that have long been idle and almost forgotten. There is likewise a con- stant recurrence of new discoveries in the big mines that add hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars to their visible assets, but which, as a rule, are given less publicity than a strike of less importance in some other district or in some property of lesser magnitude.
 The production of the state is rap idly increasing, and it will continue to do so year by year for a century to come. Goldfeld, Tonopah, Manhattan, Austin, Ely, National, and source of other rich camps, are names to con- jure by, and even the old Comstock mines, which have produced more wealth than any group of mines in the world, are still plugging away with indications that they may again shine with a semblance of some old glory of the past.
 The judicious laws that have been passed in Nevada for the prevention of ''wildcatting," such as heretofore caused almost irreparable injury to the mining interests and the good name of the state, are gradually bring ing a restoration of confidence in min ing investments and will, with the passing of time, result in full restora- tion thereof by proving to investors that the people of the state propose to act in good faith and insist on square deal for every person who puts his money into mining enterprises in Nevada.
 The state is progressing and will continue to progress. It has the great est mineral resources of any common wealth in the Union, and with the thorough elimination of the wildcat CTS, its varied resources will continue to attract the attention and invest ment of capital for development on the broadest and most substantial lines.- Goldfeld Tribune.

Rapidly Desertins Nome Camp.

A Washington special says; The census of Nome, Alaska, shows only 2,OOO inhabitants, against l2,4SS in 1900, when the gold rush was at its height.
 Nome is at the mouth of the Snake River, 13 miles west of Cape Nome. It is the center of the alluvial gold mining district, which extends west along the coast for about 20 miles from Cape Nome. After the rush to the Klondike in 1S97-S was over the pros- pectors made their way down the Yu- kon River to St. Michaels on the Der ing Sea and worked the small streams along the coast with good results. The gold deposits on the beach were dis covered in January, 1899, and by June 1000 miners were working there. The output for 1900 was estimated at B. 900, ,OOOS, and the population had leaped accordingly. In 1901 the gold output amounted to 1000, ,OOOs.

Performance of Gusher Beyond De-
 scription.

A Tuxpan, Mexico, dispatch says: The scene in the Potrero del Llano dis trict, few miles above here, where the biggest oil well in the world has been pouring forth its volume of fluid since January l 1910, cannot be ade- quately described. Imagine a solid column of oil shooting to the height of more than 45O feet, with a mist of minute gobules carried by the wind for more than ten miles, then a great lake of the fluid four miles long by three miles wide, and at the lowest depression of the bank of this lake a channel several feet wide leading in o the Tuxpan river through which the overflow of oil from the wonderful geyser is constantly going to waste; and add to this the outbursts of deadly gases that pour from the mouth of the well at frequent intervals, settling over the country for miles around, bringing death and destruction to all vegetable and animal life that comes within its touch-imagine all this, and some idea may be had of this most wonderful phenomena of nature.
 The human interest features of this phenomenal well and the efforts that are being made to save as much of the product as possible, are varied and profitable.
 Lord Cowdray of London, England, better known to the financial and bus mess world as Sir Weetman Pearson, head of the firm of s. Pearson & Son, Ltd, is the hero of the people of the Tuxpan region on account of the mas terful way he has handled the record breaking oil proposition at Potrero del Llano. The well belongs to the Mexi- can Eagle Petroleum Company, which is controlled by Lord Cowdray and as- sOciateS.
