probably he will make good trades

JUNE PROGRESS At
SNAKE CREEK WORK
Two Hundred Fifty-one Feet
Driven by Operating Only
Two Shifts.

General Manager G, w, Lamboume OF
the Snake Greek company has received
from o. n. Friendly, the engineer in
charge of the drain tunnel operations
from the Snake Creek into the Park City
district, the report OF June operations.
June was n very satisfactory month. the
company working only two eight hour
shifts. and progress was made at the rate
OF S.i feet daily.
On June the tunnel was 3472 feet
from breast TO portal. and on July this
distance was 1928 giving a gain for the
month of 25l feet. The ditch has been
cut for $3.50 feet. the sucker pipe and the
permanent tracks laid for $3.50 feet, which.
as far as the latter item is concerned,
Is the best record so far made In this
tunnel work. The formation is very sat
isfactory and the face is dry at the pres
ent time.
There are not many people who apprc
ciatc how FAR 1928 feet cover. The tun-
mel would reach from Main street To Filth
East. and il is double track Tunnel,
large enough 10 contain easily a double
team and wagon.

w. W. Bellows, president Of the Utah
Bingham company, reached the city Fri

crablc amount of uncertainty lately in
regard to the plans OF this organization.

correct The meeting was held accord

as there were mol sufficient proxies pres

proxies on July 2l another adjournment
will be taken until the required number
has been secured The meeting last year
was adjourned three times before the
required number Of shares were repre-
sented.
"'Thc reason for this is that our by
laws REQUIRE a certain number ot days

SOME NEW RUMORS
ABOUT OHIO COPPER
East Believes the Guggenheims
Are Likely to Become
Interested.

Eastern wiseacres for the first time
are connecting tho name OF the Guggen-
helms with the Ohio Copper company. II
is reported from Boston that a Guggen-
helm engineer recently made a close eX
animation OF the mine and mill and that
his visit was made for one OF two pur
poses, either To check up past reports
that his principals might act with the
advantage of all the facts in the case, or
TO secure a more adequate idea OF the
possibilities OF the proposition with a
view of determining the probable future
production of the company.
This latter view is taken in view Of
interests are securing the concentrates
from the Ohio Copper mill for the Garfield
smelter, and ii is the custom Of smclt-
ing companies when possible TO have
their engineers keep close account OF
mine conditions as far as their custom
crs are concerned. While this view Of
the matter Is deemed logical, the other
side OF the question Is equally logical,
namely. that there may he some sort OF
terests may participate in the purchase
OF Ohio Copper bonds in order 10 afford
the money necessary to bring the Ohio
mill up to its right capacity.
Despite the delay OF the eastern imam
cial negotiations, many western share
holders have not lost hope that the af-
fairs of the company will be straight
ened out satisfactorily soon Theirs is
a patience tempered by long suffering,
and the majority are holding on simply
because they feel away down deep that
the Ohio Copper proposition Is far bet
ter one In every way than Its troubles
would Indicate.
