conference between President Taft,
Secretary of War Stimson and Acting
Secretary of State Wilson.
In addition to sending another regi-

FROM MINING CAMPS

Bids were opened March 1 for the
work of sinking a shaft 100 feet on
the Metaline Oriole mine at Metaline
Falls.
Thirty-fve men are being employed
on the Alice mine, near Wallace, and
good progress is being made on the
work.
Proceedings of the Northwest Mining
convention, including every speech and
paper rendered, have been published in
book form and sent free on application.
Stockholders in the Tamarack and
Chesapeake mine, near Mullan, accord
ing to current report, have decided TO
start operations this spring on the big
ore body.
After burning for more than 40 hours
the fire in the Standard mine, Wallace,
was extinguished Sunday. During the
entire time the blaze was confined to
the upper abandoned workings and did
little damage.
The American Tungsten CONSOLE
dated company, which has taken over
the old Germania mines and other
properties in Cedar canyon, Stevens
county, Wash, is planning the erection
of large mill.
The hearing of the application of the
Butte Mill and Smeltermen s union for
an injunction restraining the Western
Federation of Miners and others from
securing possession of the property or
money OF in any way interfering with
the jurisdictional rights of the mill
and smeltermen as a result of the de-
cision of the Butte miners union to
absorb the smeltermen was begun in
Butte, Mont.
Republic District.
Shipments to the smelters are in
creasing. In January SO carloads were
shipped from the Surprise mine, six
went out from the Lone Pine and four
carloads were sent from the 50O-foot
level of the Quilp mine. The Tacoma
and CRANKY smelters took the largest
part of the shipments and the Washoe
Sampling works at Butte, Mont, took
the balance. 1t is highly probable that
the February will exceed the January
shipments.
, Grand Forks, B. G.
During the present year the mines of
the Boundary district have shipped
