Surely the cup of trouble of the own
er of mining property in Mexico run
meth over, but the more is spilled the
more remains The latest to swell the
flood is the announcement that a de-
cree has been issued by the Carranza
government annuling all mine titles
granted during the Huerta administra-
ton and declaring null all proceedings
relative to the requirement of mining
claims started during the Huerta re-
gime. Sixty days from the date of the
decree august 20, 1910 is allowed
mining agents to make application for
the removal of all procedure previously
taken. 1t is further stipulated that all
the payments required by the mining
law of Mexico in connection with min
ing titles or mining claims must be
made again to the present administra-
ton. All rights will be lost by per-
sons who have not complied with these
new rules within so days and the min
ing land will thereafter be considered
as open to announcement.

THE position Of the Industry TODAY
continues to be satisfactory. ADEQUATE
supplies continue to be available for all

to guard against shortage of any of

supplies of cyanide, zinc and mercury
seem assured and further shipments
are now coming forward. All this. Of

Exports From United States
Increasing

All will find food for thought in tn,
figures obtained from the New Yorl
custom house, showing an increase o.
nearly $12,000,000 in exports from thi.
port in the last 20 days over the same
period last year, says the Mining Age
1t was said that the balance of trade
In favor of the United States was
steadily growing and has not beer
against us at any time during the war
This showing is made in the face OF
falling off of many millions in ex-
ports of cotton, machinery, cotton
manufactures and pork products. all al
which are now steadily climbing to-
ward normal and are certain within
the next few months to exceed the fig.
ures of former years.
The falling off Of exports in these
staples has much more than been mad,
up by increases in other lines. Sugar
increased in September about so 900 06O
IN quantity and $S,2SO,0OO in value;
zinc increased from $64S in September
Oh last year to $2,4O1, 425 last Septem-
Der and when the figures of October

Exports of nickel aggregated sos

MONTANA SECOND
COPPER PRODUCER
TREASURE STATE RANKS TENTH
IN PRODUCTION OF MIN.
ERAL WEALTH.

Montana ranks tenth among tn
states in the total value of its mineral
products, and its chief mineral indus
try is the mining and smeltina If con-
per ores. AS a producer Of conner
Montana ranks second among tbo
states, Arizona being first Montana's
total production of copper from tho
time mining first began exceeds that
of any other state, the output to the
close of 1913 amounting to nearly g..
I200,000,000 pounds, somewhat more
than third of the total production
of the United States. There was de-.
crease in production from 309 ,73SS7s
pounds in 1912 to 2S7,S2S,699 pounds in
1918, and the value declined from s51.
106,s14 to $44,61S,448.
Montana is essentially a metal-pro.
ducing state, the values of its copper,
gold silver, zinc and lead representing
in 1918 over SO per cent of it's total pro-
duction. 1t is also one of the import
ant Rocky mountain states in the pro-
duction of coal. In the extent of Its
coal area Montana exceeds any other
state of the Union with the possible
exception Of Texas, about whose llg-
mite deposits relatively little is known.
The production of coal in Montana in
creased from 3,048,495 short. tons, val
ued at $5,55S,195, in 1912, to 9,24O97S
tons, valued at $5.653,539 in 1918.
The mining and smelling of zinc ores
in Montana showed a marked increase
in 1913 compared with previous years
and zinc became third in importance
among the metallic products of the
state. The recoverable contents Of
zinc in the ores mined in 1913 amount
ed to 44,337 tons, valued at $4,965,693,
against 13,459 ms, valued at 1885,
4O3 in 1912.
The total value Of the mineral pro-
ducts of the state showed decrease
from $71,620,S73 in 1912 to $69,3O7O56
in 1913, the increase in other products
not being sufficient to overcome the
decrease in the output of copper.

CRIPPLE CREEK DUMPS
RICH IN GOLD ORE
IMPROVED TREATMENT METH
obs MAKE AVAILABLE
VAST TONNAGE.

That fortunes will eventually be
realized from the extraction OF the
gold values in the dumps of the many,
mines of the Cripple Creek district
can no longer be disputed, says ". A.
Patton in the Cripple Creek Times.
The great success attained through
the treatment Of the material in the
dumps Of the Portland, Golden Cycle
and other we'll known mines Of the
district has had a stimulating effect
upon the industry as whole, and as
result many properties are nov III
demand by local operators whose sole
object is to secure the privilege OF
working over the dump matter, nun
dreds of thousands of tons of material
having been thrown away as waste
during the early history of develop
ment.
John Sharpe and associates, who re-
Gently secured privileges on the dumps
of the mines of the Elkton Mining
company, are loading out their initial
shipment of two carloads-approX'n-
ately so tons-and from tests that have
been made the product should return
Ia net profit commensurate of their eff
forts. These operators have gone INTO
the proposition with a determination
to make a success of their undertaking
and with a favorable low rate Of royal
ty prevailing, dividends of suhstau-
tial character will unquesdonably fol"
low.
Necessary equipment for working
over a large daily tonnage has been
provided and with the proposition once
placed upon a paying basis-as is now
assured--the scope of operations will
be enlarged. Much of the ore now be-
! ing handled is of low grade, but 1t is,
nevertheless, of that value that it can
be profitably handled. Mills lying in
close proximity and low treatment
and transportation charge in effect, it
is now possible to treat and handle ore
that was formerly considered out of
the question.
| Many attempts have been made in
the past to secure the privilege of
working over certain dumps on the
property of the Stratton estate, but a
deaf ear has been turned to the prop
ositions submitted to the executors of
the estate. The announcement has al
ways been forthcoming that it was the
intention of the executors to eventually
construct a modern and up to- date
milling plant of large capacity for the
express purpose of treating the ore
lying exposed on many of the dumps.
That plans are now being formulat-
ed for the construction of this mill ear
lily next year by the executors of the
Stratton estate has been generally
known some time past. In fact, every
applicant for privileges on the dumps
has been so advised Many Of these
dumps unquestionably contain large
fortunes, as is evidenced from the sam
ping of one of the properties when
values Of from $12 to $40 a ton were
reported. This dump is estimated to
contain no less than 100000 tons of
pay material.
