ENGINEER At THE
FLORENCE PROPERTY
Future of Goldfield Mine
Will Be Determined by
New Sarnpling.
Special to Tho Tribune,


GOLDFIELD, New, March SIT is
probable that no definite announcement
regarding the future plans and policy
of the Florence Goldfeld Mining COM
pany will be made by the directors Of
that company for another three weeks
at least. At the annual meeting OF the
company, held here On March l, the
directors, following the stockholders
meeting at which the members of the
former board were reelected, called
into consultation Walter II. Wiley, one
of the most eminent mining engineers
in the west and the man who repre-
sented the Jumbo Extension company
in appraising the ore bodies of the
Vinegerone Fraction, prior to its pur.
chase by the Consolidated.
Mr.. Wiley, according to apparently
reliable reports, expressed himself as
unwilling to accept the responsibility
Of advising the Florence company with
regard to its future operations in the
absence Of more complete knowledge OF
conditions existing in the mine, with
which he was unfamiliar, and there
upon it was decided by the directors TO
have the mine examined and thorough.
ly sampled under Mr.. Wiley s direction,

Mine Being Sampled.

This work is now in progress and
at the beginning it was estimated that
it would occupy nearly month. Upon
the results obtained and the report sub
mitted by the engineer will depend the
future policy of the Florence company,
but it is regarded as altogether certain
that some steps will be taken shortly
to market the ore that is already ex-
posed and TO proceed with the further
development Of the mine at depth,
More than two months ago Manager
Dewey was introduced by the directors
to suspend all development work for
the time being and since then he has
had only such a force as has been nee
essary to keep the water out of the
mine and maintain the workings in
good order,
That the mine contains a large ton
mage Of commercial ore appears to be
we'll established fact, but the com
pany has made no production for more
than year other than shipments OF
the rich material that was mined from
a narrow vein exposed at a point about
500 feet north OF tho main shaft, near
old lease workings, and stopped between
the fifth and seventh levels, which are
respectively at depths of $50 and $50
feet. Some Of this ore was of excel
lent grade, but at most was only about
two feet in width. 1t was reported
that in extracting this high-grade ma
terial a large tonnage of fine mill ore
had been placed in sight, which can be
extracted at small expense.

May Lease a Mill.

At other points in the mine good
milling ore has been broken and stored
In old Slopes and raises, where it can
be dumped into lower workings by
gravity and easily hoisted TO the sur
fact. II is said that there is large
tonnage Of this broken ore, but it is
probable that it has never been thor
knowledge has been obtained as to its
average value. The work in ore has
/ been. confined almost altogether to
depth of $50 feet or less, although
good assays have been secured and the
main vein system penetrated on the
500-foot level and a small amount Of
work was done on the lo0o.foot level.
The results Of sampling the mine will
determine whether the Florence com.
pany shall share with the Jumbo E1-
tension company In. using the Bonnie
Clare mill, thirty.six miles south of
Goldfeld: This mill is under lease to
the Jumbo Extension company and
treating its ore at the rate of over 1000
tons monthly, but when the plant was
taken over the Jumbo Extension com.
nanv remodeled it and installed a com
plete cyanide plant.
Owing to the refractory character of
the Jumbo Extension ore, which carries
silver and copper in considerable quan-
tlty, this company has not been able
10 make any use of the cyanide plant,
advantage by the Florence company,
as the ore OF the latter is amenable to
treatment by this process. The mill is
equipped with twenty stamps, but only
ten have been used for the greater part
Of the time as the concentrating equip
ment is capable of handling ore from
only ten stamps ordinarily.

HOW CUMMINs,
IS GETTING EVEN
Case of Postmaster Finger at Daven-
port is Example Of the
Senator's Tactics.
Especial to The Gate City.l

WASHINGTON. D. c., July H.
The case of Samuel A. Finger, who is
about to be succeeded as postmaster
of Davenport by Frederick B. Shar-
on, seems destined to stand out prom
inently as the most conspicuous ex-
ample of the manner in which SEN
ator Cummins gets even'' with a
republican who does not fall in line
and follow the Cummins banner The
case of Mr. Finger is even more re-
markable. in the eyes of politicians,
than those OF Claude r. Porter and
Alex r. Miller, both of whom have
felt the opposition of Senator Cum
Minis Mr.. Porter and Mr.. Miller are
democrats; Mr. Finger is a republi-
can.
Mr. Finger for several years has
been active in the politics Of the sec
ond congressional district, especially
in Davenport and Scott county. The
loss last year OF this second district,
occasioned by the rout of the Dayen-
port bunch of the old state house
flying squadron" resulted In a serious
setback to the ambition OF Senator
Cummins to cut figure in the re-
publican national convention. The

Two Dusty Brigades.

WINCHESTER, Va, July 19.-Two
dusty bridages of regulars in full war
regalia rode through here today and
went into camp few hours later
in the green valleys at the foot of the
hills which were the scene of the
most famous and spectacular of the
smaller battles of the civil war, half
a century ago. The brigades were the
advance guard of a detachment of
the regular cavalry which will be put
through the hardest test given the
United States troops in years. One
regiment is here from Fort Ethan
Allen. Vt, and the other is from FIT.
IOglethorpe. They are the Tenth,
Eleventh and Fifteenth cavalry and a
battery of the Sixth field artillery.
All rode almost every mile of the way
on horseback.
The camp, one mile wide and two
miles long, with one of the most per-
feet natural drill grounds, will be form
ALLY open tomorrow. 1t is under the
direct command of Colonel c. H.
Murray of the Twelfth cavalry, acting
brigadier general. Secretary of War
Garrison and Major General Leonard
Wood will spend good part of the
two months the soldiers will be here,
ON the job. One of the most import
ant projects to be experimental with
will be the working out Of the sug-
gested new formation of charging
cavalry In double ranks. The famous
French cavalry, said to be the great
est body of horse soldiers in the
world, has tried out the plan with
great success.

strength in the state convention at
Cedar Rapids, was almost equally
divided between the supporters OF
President Taft and the supporters OF
Senator Cummins. The senator went
out from Washington to Cedar Rapids
ito lend the power of his presence. If
the votes in any county the size of
Scott could have been switched from
Taft to Cummins, the senator would
have controlled the convention, writ
ten the platform and named the four
delegates at large. But the Taft men
did not waver.
| Mr.. Finger favored Taft in this
fight. He had been appointed post
master of Davenport by Taft, but
Senator Cummins refused to allow his
nomination to be confirmed. The SEN
ator used to say in his speeches be-
fore the farmers Institutes that he
was not standpatter in anything.
But he certainly stood pat on the
Finger nomination. Had the senator
said the word, Mr. Finger would have
i been postmaster OF Davenport for the
next four years.
| Mr.. Sharon was selected by Repre-
sentative Pepper to succeed Mr.. Fin
ger. AS soon as Mr. Sharon's name
reached the senate Senator Cummins
cleared the way for It and it was
confirmed in record breaking time,
so far as Iowa postmasters go.
| It was case of That for you, Sam
Finger!"
