With the exception of part of the grinding machinery, which is en route, the sixth unit at the Miami concen- trator is ready to start. The tables are all in place and have been tried out: An unique experiment will be made at the big concentrator while the heavier parts are en route. Su- perintendent Gottsberger has ordered the slime from the units in operation to be run over the tables in unit six to determine how much of the waste can he recovered. At present the waste will approximate .75 of one per cent. With little trouble and expense Mir Gottsberger believes that a reconcen- trating of the slime will cut the total waste to less than 80 of per cent. If the experiment proves successful it will reduce the producing cost of cop per at the Miami mine close to : cents a pound. Miami Messenger.

| thoO iOil blC lhSi uoO ol SllNCI in the industries and the arts, the new coinage demand, together with the in- dustrial consumption, could easily match and would probably exceed the total current annual output of the mines.
 We have new factor also, which cannot be indefinitely deferred from operation, in the need of the Indian government to increase it's holdings of , silver rupees in its currency reserve. There have been no purchases of sil. yer by the Indian government since 1907, and the expansion of the trade of India, notwithstanding the larger use of gold and of government notes in that country, will soon compel an ad- dition to the rupee currency of the great British dependency. It seems probable that these purchases would have been resumed ere this had not the available stock of silver been con centrated to the extent of about 20,. 900, ,0O0$ in the hands of an alleged combination of Indian speculator,
 The Indian government naturally ob jected to play into the hands of speculative clique by entering the market for silver purchases at a price that would reduce seigniorage profits, but even governments, as we'll as in dividuals, are liable to make the mis take of staying too long out of a mar. ket to which natural conditions are giving inherent strength
 The world in general has been de ficient in its coinage of silver for cur rency for the last few years If total coinage consumption in 1912 or 1913 should rise to the annual average of, say, the i've years from 1904 to 1908, it would exceed l42.OOO 900. Add. say 20. 900, ,OOO for Chinese consumption (as suming that fl yure as an annual aver. age) and we have d total coinage con sumption for the world of l62, ,000, ,000 leaving only 60.000, ,O00 ounces from the worlds production to supply industrial needs, which, for 1908 and 1909. aver- aged about lOO,OOO,OOO ounces. while there is little doubt that in 1910 and 1911 these figures were largely ex. ceeded.
 In q word. statistics indicate that the present and potential demand for silver as commodity and for money uses is very largely in excess of the total mine production. Unless these figures can be successfully disputed, there is little doubt that the producers of silver throughout the world are confronting period of greater profits than they have enjoyed for a long time.
 Of course the existing disorders in China have temporarily put the country's currency reform on the shelf. This condition of affairs. how ever, will not last indefinitely, ar d whether China becomes a republic or remains an empire. no well.informed student of the situation can have the slightest doubt that as soon as DOS. sible the new coinlng system will be put into effect.

McQuarrie has got together Salt Lake crowd to do some extensive development of their large tract of over 300 acres along the prospected mineral belt of four miles in length. These samples were brought out of Bull valley on horseback. The best country is almost acce ssable to teams until several miles of new road is built.
 MT. McQuarrie declares that he thinks some commercial deposits of tungsten will be found In the district. About sixteen miles from Acoma he found some very rich lead ores. Some of it is specialization of lead almost pure white, while galena, sand carbon ates and other kinds of rich lead-silver ores have been found Tn limited quanti- ties. He is sanguine that thorough prospecting of the district and system. atic development work will open up several profitable mines in the vicinity, some of which should give up sensa- tional returns.
 At presel t there is no semblance of a camp in there. and prospectors would do well to go thoroughly equipped, or await the advent of spring, is the ad- vice of people who know the country Herald. Republican.

High Grade Gold Ore.

Rather sensational results have been the reward of the tests made this week of the samples of ore which R G. McQuarrie of St. George brought up from his new discovery in the Bull valley district. Washington coun ty, twenty miles east of Acoma on the Salt Lake Route. and midway between St. George and Modena. The results of the infalliable acid tests were an nounced yesterday, in which the best ore specimens showed gold running as high at 754s to the ton.
 Out in Nevada, where they have wide-awake floating population of several thousand, ever on the alert for bonanza discoveries, on the announce ment of such values there would be rush in there, the end of thirty days witnessing the establishment of bristling little mining camp of several ,, hundred people, every available claim having been located within miles of camp, and probably murder, a sui eide, an elopement and the laying of church cornerstone to boot. In staid Utah it is different. People here generally sit around like the good burgers of Knickerbocker's History tf New York, smoking and dreaming and thinking, and when they finally wake up to the notion that the camp is worth Investigating they happen a. round only to find that everything worth while has been grabbed up weeks before.
 MT. McQuarrie's first sample tested out as follows: Gold, 37.4 ounces; sill yer, l3 ounces; insoluble, 74.7 per cent: sulpher, 2 per cent; iron 5.7 per cent. The second assay showed: Gold 5S ounces, valued at ll6$; l.7 ounces sil-
