CANANEA, Son. Mex, Aug. 19.-
 About the works Of she Cananea
 Consolidated Copper company sever
 al improvements are being made
 both at the mines and reduction
 plant. At the former a pipe line
 is being constructed between Hen. rietta mine and Puerticitos property which will convey the power for the
 operation of the drills. The line will be 1000 feet in length and the air will be furnished by a new com pressor which is being installed at the Henrietta. The construction oi the line is being rushed.
 Additional trackage is being laid in the Oversight mine for the motors and several other minor improve ments are being made in this mine and the Veta which will add to the economical handling of the ore The old mill is being carefully rebuilt and repaired and at present is now operst- ing full capacity with the exception Of one section
 At the shelter the work on the two additional conveIters is being rushed and they will soon be in readiness for operation. The shelter is at present operating with seven furnaces and the production bids fair to be greater this month than any month this year
 The new mill of the Calumet & So- nora Mining company, which was placed in operation last week, is giv- ing excellent satisfaction and begin ming today three shifts will be em- ployed at the plant At the old mill only one shift Is working but on the first Of the coming month there will be two shifts at work. The new mill will have all the concentrates on the storage piles handled by that time and will then handle the output of the old mill directly after concentration Shipments have been resumed to the shelter and will be regularly made hereafter.
 The Canauea-B Boston company which owns the Siempre Viva No. 1 and 2 denOmncements, located between the Calumet & Sonora and Cananea Con solidated properties, about a mile from town, is planning to resume work on its No. shaft which is located but a short distance from the Catalina No. 1 shaft of the Calumet (, Sonora company. Since the spring but little work has been done on the property on account of the unsettled condi- tions, but as the property was and is still in the development stage the financial outlook was not encourag- ing. At the present time, however, it is planned to- sink the shaft down to a depth of 200 feet and as the workings are or the same vein as the Catalina it is predicted that con siderable ore will be encountered. The shaft Is about 150 to 200 feet lower down the hill than the Catalina and 1t is expected that the ore bodies will be penetrated at a more shallow depth than that in the Catalina The shaft has been sunk to a depth of about loo feet and considerable ore has been encountered which ran high in lead, silver and zinc but the water in the shaft caused work to be sus- pended for the time being until ar engagements could be made for the handling of same. The electric pow CT line from the Cananea company to the Catalina passes but a few feet rom the Cananea- Boston shaft and crosses On their property, and it will be but a small cost to install an electric hoist and secure power for 1t from the Cananea company The outlook is very favorable for this
