MIAMI COMPANY is
BACK TO CAPACITY

An Idea Of the interest being taken In
the Miami property by the vice presi-
dent and consulting engineer, j. Parlle
Claiming, can be had from the fact that
he has returned for brief stay at his
New York headquarters after an eight
months visit 10 the mine. Practically all
these months he has been giving his
time and attention to the property, and
he is TO return within the near future
to continue his attention there.
Upon his return to the east Mr.. Chan
ming stated that everything at mine and
mill was progressing in a satisfactory
manner. The mine has recovered IL
every particular from the caye-in that
la ppened there several months ago. and
all six OF the mill units are in operation.
An item OF Importance is that the smelt-
ing contract has been renewed upon
more profitable terms for the company.
for a period OF ten years from the first
Of July.
The Miami is coming up to NIr. Chan
ning's expectations, and results have
squared with his early predictions In
remarka BILE manner. This company was
the third of the great so-called porphyry
copper group to be placed upon a divi-
end basis.
During July, the Miami produced $780, :
900 pound OF copper, doing $500 feet OF
development work during the period.
During that month. 93,423 tons Of ore
were handled at the mill

FIFTH FURNACE At
TOOELE LEAD PLANT
Active Smelling VIII Begin
With New Furnace Before
Weeks Close.

IL all expectations are realized, the
mana cement OF the International Smelt
ing {: Refining company during the
present week will place the fifth blast
furnace nt the lead smelling plant into
commission. Construction work has been
proceeding diligently throughout the
summer. and the first warning-up fires
were started on last Sunday Each blast
furnace has daily capacity OF $50 tons.
so the flve furnaces will permit the
handling daily OF 1850 tons.
SO rapidly is the International com
pany adding Its lead ore tonnages that
there is little need to draw Upon the
large stock-pile that has been accumu-
la ting ever since the first determination
OF the company to engage In the lead
smelling business. II has Just about
kept the four furnaces busy taking care
of the daily arrivals, and there Is bust
ness enough ahead for additional fur
naces.
II IS likely, however, that the company
will not make any other additions 10 the
lead smelter for the time being. Con-
struction work in Utah is about COM
pleted. while the next big job TO be un-
dertaken by the company VIII be the
erection OF the copper smelter In Ari
zona for the purpose OF handling the In
spra tlon Consolidated and other ores and
concentrates. AT the Tooele smelter four
OF the reverbera tory furnaces are In COM
mission in the copper smeter.

Safety of Employees.

The safety feature viii undoubtedly
occupy large place IN both the conven-
tIon and the mining show or exposition.
The desire OF the operators and mining
men generally TO better safeguard their
men who work in the dark underground
passages has led to a multitude OF safety
devices and this viii be the opportunity
FOR the mining man TO decide for himself
what is most efficient and best adapted
TO his work.
The west. which Is very much inter-
ested in the conservation OF human life
in the mines. will be largely represented
at the convention and mining show.
Members of the congress and other In
terested men are now arranging for three
special transcontincntal trains that Will
bring them in safety and comfort from
the Pacific coast 10 Philadelphia. One OF
these trains is TO start from Los Anse-
les. another from San Francisco. and the
third from Seattle. Wash. These trains
will pick up mining men from all the
important mining camps in the west.

and Michigan are also planning special

The great coal companies of Pennsyl-

And thereupon. IL is incumbent upon

register and receiver Of the local land
office witnesses who were acquainted
with the land and its mineral char
acter prior to the year 1896, II the
survey OF the township was completed
before that time which witnesses arc
there confronted and cross examined

Often It Is at great expense and with
some difficulty that the present own
ers of a particular mining claim Is
able to find witnesses who knew the
land involved prior to the year 1896
There are several of such cases now
