St, MAR|ES NINE
MAKES NEW STRIKE
MONARCH OPENS A GOOD VEIN
OF ORE IN THE LOWER
WORKINGS.
(St. Maries Record)

Extra good news was received Sat
urday from the Monarch mine where
milling ore was struck in good paying
quantities about two weeks ago.
They have been continuing the tun-
mel on the vein and about 200 o'clock
Saturday morning the night shift fired
blast and upon examination found
that the vein had opened from IA
inches, the width it had been running
to 21s feet, and an examination Of the
ore showed that it had also increased
in value.
An assay at the time Of the strike
two weeks ago showed value Of $23
per ton in lead. silver, gold and cop
per. This value had been steadily in
crea asing as they went deeper and the
Ore revealed by the shot Saturday
morning showed values as high as $35
per ton. The ore is mainly lead and
silver but there was marked IN
crease in the gold showing.
The work of developing that is be-
ing carried on Is at a depth Of 140
feet and it has demonstrated conclu-
sively that not only is the vein in
creasing in width with depth but the
ore is also gaining In values
There is not the least question in
the minds of the men at work and
others who have examined the show
ings but what the Monarch will prove
equal to any on the Coeur d'Alene side
of the divide.
An expert from one Of the leading
smelters of the country recently Wis
tied the mine and after making a thor
ough examination offered to make g
contract to purchase all of the ore that
the mine produces.
The company which owns the Mon
arch with other properties In the
neighborhood, the Ritzville Mining
and Milling company, is capitalized for
100000, divided into 100000 shares
of the par value of so cents each.
Since the strike two weeks ago these
shares have been selling at 5 cents.
The price has gone up and now Is
from 71h to 10 cents per share
The company is putting limited
amount of stock on the market to OBJ
tain money to buy machinery and con-
tinue development work.

OLD AIR COMPRESSOR

The Hunter company at Mullan Is

Works for scrap" an old 1ngersoll-
Rand compressor that has quite an
interesting history. The compressor
was built by the Ingersoll people In
1876 for the Centennial exposition at
Philadelphia, where 1t took the prize
as the largest and best compressor In
the world at that time. From the ex-
position grounds the compressor was
shipped to New York City, where 1t
was used in driving the tube tunnels

work was finished, Dennis Ryan mar.

The Hunter company is replacing
the old machine with the latest type

RICH ORE AT NATIONAL NINE.
Muilan Copper Property Develops
New Shoots Of High Grade.

The National Copper mine at
Mullan has developed some Won
derfully rich shoots of ore within
the past few weeks. An average
assay taken from one Of the slopes
on the S00-foot level this week
shows values of 266 ounces silver,
SIG in gold and 35 per cent copper
per ton. With silver at 5S cents
the ore has a value in that metal
of $154.2S and $1O3.25 in copper at
IA ga cents, giving a total value of
$273.53.
The shoots of high grade ore are
numerous and extensive enough to
run the bulk of the lower grade
ores up to a much better average
than was at first expected when
the company decided to erect
milling plant on the property. At
that time nothing but the lower
grade ore had been found. The
work of drifting, raising and open
ing slopes on the different levels
has developed possibilities in tom
mage and values far surprising
anything expected, and it now ap-
pears that the National will be-
come one of the big copper mines
of the northwest.

SPOKANE MEN GUARANTEE THE
DEBTS OF COMPANY SUR.
VEYS BEING MADE.

c. E. Mallette and associates of Spo-
trolling interest in the 1dora property
in the Nine Mile district, have guar
anteed all the outstanding indebted
ness against the company, amounting
to about 100000 1t is understood here
that the company has sufficient funds
on hand to meet these obligations.
Surveys are being made at the mine
both above and underground, and min
ing engineers are at work making
close examination Of the property. If
these Investigations are favorable the
work at the mine will be resumed i'm
mediately and an effort made to place
the property on a paying basis.

The big Morning mine and mill at
Mu]lan one of the most important
properties of the Federal Mining &
Smelling company, will close down
temporarily to allow the company to
make necessary repairs to the shaft,
hoist and milling plant. The date for
the closing has not been definitely de-
cded upon, but it will probably be
about May 1.
Just how long the property will re-
main closed is matter for specula-
ton, as the company will give out no
definite information. The amount Of
repair work necessary will require
from three to six weeks at least
The recent drop in the price of lead
is perhaps the primary cause for the
closing of the mine at this time, the
company deciding to take advantage
of the low market conditions as an
opportune time to make repairs that
could not we'll be made while the mine
was in operation. The Morning ores
have become exceedingly difficult to
treat in the lower levels, and any drop
in the lead market seriously affects
the profits A much closer saving Is
made on the ore now than formerly.
All the latest devices for ore treatment
known in milling practice have beer
tried out at the Morning plant and
some of them adopted with good
measure of success. The mine and
plant represents an investment Of
something over $4,000,O00 and 1t is not
at all likely that this amount Of cap
ital will be allowed to remain idle any

employs about 400 men and has been
in continuous operation since the early
days of the camp under different own

Federal company being the most sue

property from Larson & Greenough for
$3,0O0,000. since which time the prop

That the company does not contem-
plate a permanent shutdown is evil
denced by the fact that they have pur-
chased several carloads of new ma
chinery for both mine and MILL and
this is now on the ground ready for
the installation of new air com :

will be either 80 or 40 drills capacity

the air needed. 1t will take severa
months to complete this installation
but this work will not interfere with
the operation of the mine in any way
Probably about 100 men will be en-
ployed by the company on repairs dur.

Leaders Hope to Speed Up
Legislative Program.

Washington, Feb. 16.-Administra-
ton leaders in congress are seeking to
speed up the legislative program. An
effort will be made this week to dis.
pose of more of the appropriation
measures In the senate the postof-
fee bill will be taken up, while the
house: will complete the Indian bill. Z
The Democratic chieftains are be.
ginning to be apprehensive about the
possibility of an early adjournment, so
that members can get into the coming
congressional campaign. 1t is less
than four months until June l, the
tentative objective point of the party
leaders for adjournment, and much
work remains to be done.
While the senate usually disposes
of appropriation bills rapidly there is
a fight in store on the postoffice bill,
owing to the committee amendment
which would take the power from the
postmaster general to change the
rates, weight limits and other features
of the parcel post system. Several
Democratic senators are planning to
oppose this amendment and II 1t
passes the senate another battle is
certain in the house.
