Germans Report suocesses

Berlin, Nov. 6.-News given out Of
ficially for the press today says that
the hard fighting in the northwest
continues, but that it is as yet with
out result. The Germans have, how
ever, been able to make slow ad-
vances at several points from Ypres
inland.
The clash in Poland, which has
been expected for several days past
has not yet developed. One reason is
that the condition of the roads makes
rapid movement impossible The cold
weather is now making some improve
ment in this regard.
No exact Information as to the po-
sitions of the Teutonic allies is avail
able.
The Russians are unquestionably
the superior force, condition the
allies are seeking to overcome by adj
vantages in position. Farther to the
south the Austrians continue to harass
the enemy. No day passes, according
to this information given out in Ber-
lin, without . report of the capture

The quantity of iron mined in the
United States in 1913 is estimated by
E. F. B%urchard, of the United States
Geological Survey, to have been be-
tween 5S,OOO,O 900 and 10000 900
long tons. This estimate is based
on preliminary reports from rs of
the largest iron-mining companies,
which represent the principal IRON
producing districts and whose com
bined output is about 81 per cent of
the total iron ore mined in 1912.
The average increase in output
shown by these 90 companies was
8 per CEN over that for 1912, and
if this increase should be maintained
by all the iron companies in the
United States the total output of iron
for 1913 should reach 100000
long tons. At any rate, it appears
almost certain that the former high
record of iron ore mined, 5~7,014,096
long IONS in 1910, has been surpassed
in 1918. The reports received for
1913 showed considerable variation
in the percentage of changes in out
put compared with 1912, the maxi
mum range being from a decrease Of
Sc per cent to an increase Of Sc
per cent. These apparently wide var
iations were evidently due to condi-
lions affecting particular companies
rather than to general or even local
conditions of the iron-mining indus
try; moreover, they concerned, for
the most part, the operations of COM
panies whose production is not suf-
fciently great to affect largely the
grand total tonnage.
In the Lake Superior district,
where about IS per cent of the do
nestle iron ore is mined, the increase
in production correspondent closely

IN SANTO DOMINGO

The effect of prospecting opera
tions of several parties of Americans
who last year started work in the
republic of Santo Domingo has been
to stimulate mining activity in that
country. More or less development
work has been done on deposits OF
iron, sulphur, salt, aluminium, sill
yer, copper, lead, manganese, CO.
bait, asbestos, asphalt and nickel.
While the reposits of magnetic iron
certainly form the greatest mineral
asset of the country, the chalk and
tale deposits are of great value and
it is believed can be operated profit
ably. The work on the deposits of
silicate of nickel indicates a promis-
ing future for the mining of this
metal. Gold placers in the province
of Lake Vega are low grade, but
with the proper equipment probably
car be worked profitably.-Mining

Judge Somers yesterday received
from Louis Schloss of San Francisco,
formerly a resident of Goldfield, a
telegram advising him of the death
recently in Los Angeles of James K.
Redington, an attorney who located
in Goldfeld in the early days and
resided here until last spring, when
he went to the coast in the hope OF
benefitting his health. Mr.. Reding-
ton was more than 70 years old and
came to Goldfield from Washington,
D. c., where he had a wide practice
at one time. He enjoyed national
prominence and was considered one
of the best land lawyers in the Uni
ted States. He was formerly a
partner of former Senator William

SLUMBERING
Says MINING RECORD

What is responsible for Utah's
present great commercial progress?
Read the answer in the persistency
of Utah publications in riveting the
attention of the world upon Utah's
mineral Unlike Colorado's
leading general newspapers, Utah's
publications devote pages to hat
states mining activities, against
columns and fractions OF columns of
carefully concealed mining items in
Colorado publications, hidden among
a lot of rank sensational news of
the day. What is true of Utah is
also true of Montana, Washington,
Nevada and other western mining
states. Colorado publications have
isolated the state from a mining
standpoint to such an extent that
Colorado citizens, not interested in
mining, practically consider the in
dustry a joke.
Little or no public interest in
mining exists in Colorado at this
time. Merchants, civic organizations
and bankers are all guilty of a lack
of interest in the one-time much
heralded mining II of the
Centennial state, which are even
greater now than ever before. 1T
seems to have become the fashion
among business men and bankers
particularly, in the city of Denver
to damn mining by faint praise. 1t
is only natural, therefore, that they
should all be wondering what has
happened to Colorado, why real es-
tate and land values are so low, with
little demand. They have sown to
the wind and are reaping the whirl-
wind. When the old-time Colorado
spirit is revived. Colorado will once
more take it's position far in the lead
of the precious metal producing sec
lions of the world.
Outside money, 80 per cent eastern
and foreign, is going into Colorado
mining at this time. This means
that the states mining dividends are
practically all going out of the state.
The largest foreign corporations OPP
Grating in the state are increasing
their holdings in mining more ex-
tensively than ever, but public parti-
cipation on the part of Colorado
citizens is much less per capita than
ever before in the history of the
state. Some of these days they will
wake up, let us hope.-Mining Rec

WORK TO Be RESUMED ON
MANHATTAN CONSOLIDATED

The Manhattan Consolidated, one
of the largest properties of the north
ern district, will resume mining at
once and by another thirty days will
be in a position to decide about the
adoption of a treatment process for
the reduction of it's immense ton
mage.
This much was decided on yes
terday at a conference between w.
III. Webster, president of the COM
pany, who is also president OF the
Atlas Powder company, of Whining
ton, Del. Wesley Stewart, n of the
directors, and S. w. Steiner, who
holds the principal lease on the Con-
solidated ground. 1t was the in
tention of Mr.. Webster to visit the
property, but he was satisfied with
the report of Mr.. Steiner and he
decided to forego the trip and re-
turned home this morning.
Last week the Consolidated began
unwatering the mine. The job will
require the best part of a month be-
fore the underground workings are in
shape to set the machine drills and
then work will be pushed without
loss of time.
A tentative contract has been made
with the California Extraction com
pany of Oakland for the introduction
of their chemical process for the re-
duction of ores and, if the tests, to
be conducted at Oakland, are salts
factory, the plant will be installed at
the mine as soon as the materials
can be assembled. This would Oc-
cupy about sixty days. The Califor-
mia company has been developing
this process for a period of two years
and, if the representations of the
company are fulfilled, it is claimed
that the troubles of the Consolidated
are at an end, as reduction a be
done for less than three dollars a
ton. An experiment plant will be
ready for business at Oakland by the
18th of February and a carload of
Consolidated ore will be shipped
there for treatment. If the results
are as good as promised, a Plant
on a large scale will be erected at the
mine. The demonstration plant is of
ten tons capacity.-BOnanza.

PROMINENT MINING MEN
IN GOODSPR|NGS SECTION

The zinc deposits of the Good
springs district of Nevada continue
to attract considerable attention,
several properties in that section be-
ing in continuous operation, among
the most successful being the yell
low Pine mine, operated by a Los
Angeles company, of which Frank A.
Keith, late of Tonopah, is the gen.
eral manager. Mr.. Keith has re-
Gently taken over the Anchor mine
in this district, which has been in
corporated as the Goodsprings
Anchor Mining company with Frank
A.. Keith, president and general
manager; Seeley w. Mudd, vice
president; Robert 1. Rodgers, vice
president Of the National Bank of
California, of Los Angeles, treas
urer, and Phillip Wiseman, n of
the promoters of the Ray CONSOLE
dated Copper company, as 4 direc-
tor.
The main incline shaft of the
property has been sunk to a depth
Of 200 feet, and on the 132-foOt
level the vein was shown to be 80
cen zinc and 8 ounce of silver to
46.9 per cent and SO unces of
silver. Drifting both ways on this
vein at this depth is now in progress,
and prosecuting to the ore on the
2OO-foot level has also heen COM
menced.
The property is equipped with a
gasoline hoist and an electric tram
way connecting the mine with the
road, a distance of 100 feet below,
where ore bins have been built, and
from this point the ore will be
hauled to Jean on the Salt Lake
railroad, a distance of about 8 miles.
AS development proceeds on the
property, it is proposed to construct
a plant for the treatment of the
lead, zinc ores, and it is probable
that a Stebbins dry concentrating
mill will be erected, this process hav-
ing been proved to be most success
full in it's treatment of the ores Of
this section, a plant being in opera
ton at the Howard mines on the
west side of the Spring range.
Within a few days the company
expects to start shipments of zinc
ore at the rate of ~ IONS daily to
the Empire Zinc company, with
which a contract has been signed
for the output of the mine for two
years. Based upon a 40 per cent
zinc content, the ore will net at the
Jean railroad station $1,000 per ton,
and allowing SO mining cost and 81
for hauling and loading on cars, it
should net the company $11.9O per
ton at the mine.
In a report upon the property, Mr..
Keith stated that "the present show
ing at the mine is excellent, and the
possibility of this property develop
ing into a valuable mine is good"
