OLD MONTANA MINE READY TO
START MILLING RICH
CRUDE ORE.

The Iron Mountain mine al Superior,
Mont. was to have started active OPP
erations this week in both mine and
mill, but, operations have now been
delayed indefinitely on account of the
fact that the company is at present
unable to market the ore. The milling
plant has recently been overhauled and
a large amount of new and modern
concentrating machinery added to the
plant, and everything placed in read
mess for continuous operation. In the
mine some new and important mineral
discoveries have been made since the
MIL was closed. One of the zinc veins
system, and shown about seven feet
wide of high grade zinc ore. A new
shoot of lead -silvre ore of high grade
has also been opened, and the COM
pany now has about two carloads of
this material on the dump, which will
be sent to the smelters in its crude
fornI. This ore will assay about 60 to
20 per cent lead and is high grade in
silver The management reports about
three feet wide of this material.

F-OTATlON PROCESS SAVES ORE
THAT RUNS 500

The Hunter company at Mullan this
week made some interesting and i'm

tation process on ore that it has been
found impossible to concentrate by
any ordinary method. The ore is a
heavy spar and quartz gangue con-
tanning rich sulphides in lead and sill
Yer The vein is a parallel vein to the
one which the company has worked
for years, but has never been mined
not be saved The test of the ore by
the flotation method shows that it is
peculiarly adapted to treatment by
.hiS principle. No difficulty whatever
was experienced in saving the val
ues. and the test run produced con-
centrates which assayed 500 ounces in
silver and 43 per cent lead per ton. No
definite plans have been made by the
for the mining and milling Of
this ore, bat arrangements for its
treatment will ne doubt be included
in the plans now under consideration

been started from the st. Joe side of
the range. carload Of supplies was
sent to the scene this week, and a
number of men employed to do the
preliminary grading work to prepare
for the big tunnel site. This tunnel

MINING MEN Of THE DISTRICT
MEET AND DISCUSS PLANS
FALLING
MARkErs-soME REDUCTIONS IN THE


The heads of the different mining
companies in the Coeur d'Alenes met
in Wallace this week to talk over the
lead, silver, zinc and copper market
situation, and If possible to determine
to pursue in the operation of the diff
ferent mines Of the district during the
period of depression in the metal mar
kets of the world. Chairman Brow
nell of the board of directors of the
Federal company was present at the
meeting, which was also attended by
all the local managers of the differ
ent mines of the district. Two meet
ings were held but no final decision
was arrived at as to the exact meas
ures to be adopted other than that the
output of the several mines would be
curtaled to certain extent, until the
market conditions improve,
The Federal company's Morning
mine at Mullan reduced it's working
force during the early part OF the
week by laving off tlYe miners en-
ployed on the development Of the Star
property, and also the crew working
on the You~Like vein, which combin-
ed makes about so men. The Snow
storm company at Mulan suspended
operations at the Missoula. letting out
about 40 men. The National at Null
Ian also reduced its crew by laying off
n number of single men. If conditions
do not improve shortly the Hunter
mine at Mullan will probably lay off
Sundays, and the Hecla at Burke
Saturdays and Sundays. The Green
Hill Cleveland also proposes to close
Sundays. The Bunker Hill & Sullivan
has laid off number of single men.
All independent smelling companies.
have informed the mines here that
they will meet prices paid by the AM
erican Smelling e Refining company.
The present price paid for lead by TINS
company Is $3.50. For silver they
nay an advance of 25 cents per ounce.
the balance of the price Is to be paid
according to market quotations at the
time the silver Is marketed, and then
on percentage basis according to
each company's share in the total sil-
yer bullion sold by the smeter. The
outlook is hopeful and 1t is expected
that within a short time the business
will settle back to at least normal con-
ditions.
LATER-The Hccla company has
decided to work its mine and mill only
five davs out Of the week, laying Off
Saturdays and Sundays.
1t is reported from Wardner that the
Last Chance mine Of the Federal COM
panv has laid off about $50 men.
In Mulan it Is understood that the
Federal will reduce the working force
at the Morning mine and mill at least
one-half until such time as market
conditions improve.
All of the Coeur d'Alene mines Will
probably take similar action within q
few days.
