Rio Tinto Strike Still On.

A Huelva, Spain, dispatch says:- There have been further riots at the Rio Tinto mines. The workmen have sent an appeal to the government to intervene in favor of their claims. The strike removes : 1,500,000 pounds Of copper monthly from the world s market, and has now been in progress for several weeks. The continuation of such conditions would not only mean a further enforced curtailment of cop- per supplies from this source, but may also be reflected in the market for sul' phuric acid. The ores of Rio Tinto run very high in sulphur and have a world wide market among producers of sulphuric acid and are largely used in this country.

Boundary Cone in Big Ore.

TD.L, Williams. one of the direc- tors of the Boundary Cone Mining company, arrived in kingman last Monday and went out to the mines the following day in company of Frank Dryden. superintendent of that prop ertv. Mr. Williams returned the same day and went on to Los Angeles He was well pleased with the de- velopment of the mine. From Mr. Dryden we learn that the west drift on the $50 level has been in ore for no feet. the average width being five feet. This ore also extends past the shaft east 60 feet, keeping the same general width. The value of the ore as broken down is about 3OS gold per ton. Some of the feeders to this vein have given values well up in the hun dreds of dollars to the ton. and one winze sunk on the 400 level gave ore that would run up in the thousands of dollars to the ton. A big tonnage of ore is now on the mine dumps, there having been little waste taken from any of the openings. The drift west is i still being extended into the rich ground and to the east an effort is being made to pick up the vein where it faulted. Indications are that the fault plane will be traced out and the vein will be developed. The company is also preparing to have milling plant erected for the handling of the big tonnage of ore the mine Is capable of outputting, the work to be under
 way by the first of January. The four levels show the same grade of ore and of a character that will readil , respond to either plate gamatior or cyanide.
