OF the metal by the Indian government
IN thank for its strength There has
been a generous accumulation Of the
metal In the hands OF the far eastern
speculator In anticipation Of this action
by the Indian government. but II now
appears that the government has pulled
one on or put one over on these specu-
lators by having quietly bought It's metal
recently without unduly exciting the
market thereby turning the tables neat

until the steamers last week for Bonn

is DOING SPLENDIDLY
General Manager Labarthe Is
Salt Lake Visitor on
Tuesday.

Jules Labarthe. general manager of the
Mason Valley Mines company, which is
one OF the most attractive OF recent cop
per producing propositions brought into
usefuln ess, reached Salt Lake City Tues
day morning on business connected with
the organization which will require his
presence here for tvo or three days. Mr
Labarthe was Installed az general man
ager OF the Mason Valley company prior
to smclter planning and erection: the
plant at Thompson, therefore. was con-
structed under his personal supervision.
and tho success Of this smelter has been
too widely appreciated to need further
emphasis here.
The smelter held originally two blast
furnaces. and only one was placed in
commission. The rated capacity OF each
furnace WAS 400 tons oi orc daily. and
the initial furnace has handled as high
as 9l7 tons within twenty-four hours.
while IL averaged 165 tons OF ore daily
during the month OF August. This splen-
did increase In actual oyer-rated ca
pa city was explained yesterday by Mr..
Labarthe from the fact that the ores
OF the company require considerable
less amount OF flux than the average
ores being 50 much self-fluxing that the
charge contains n far greater percenta ge
OF ore than is customary in other smelt-
crs where tho furnaces handle less ore.

Waste Dumps Smelted.

In a mining as we'll as smelling way
the Mason Valley company has been
productive Of numerous surprises. and
each one has been on the right side Of
the ledger. The waste dumps made by
tho company during the four Eve
years OF actual development operations
are being sneltod, and IN a short time
Mr., Iabarthe stated that there will be
no dumps at the property at all. This
so-ca)led waste dump tonnage has been
found highly satisfactory fiux, II ranges
from 1T to 2 per cent copper and aver
ages 80 per cent lime.
Shortly after the first blast furnace
WAS put into service, the company de-
ternined upon the enlargement of the
second furnace. which task has now been
completed. This furnace will be put into
commission next week. II is thirty feet
In length by forty-flNo inches and should
handle anywhere from 900 70 1000 tons
OF ore each twenty-fou hours. The
initial furnace will then be cooled down
and II will be enlarged five feet In length
to thIrty-ive feet for use either In
available justifes both furnaces being
utilized
Between nfty and sixty shippers OF
custom ores arc now sending their prod
uct 10 the Mason Valley plant. and an
average Of thirty I'VE tons OF custom ores
daily Is being received from shippers
along the Southern Pacific railroad line
alone. An idea OF what the srelter
means 10 the Mason mining district IT
self ia had from the fact that there are
twelve properties now shipping ore to
the plant from within the boundary lines
Of the camp.
