 OATMAN, July 3-Two milling plants having combined ore treati.g capacity of about 300 tons per twenty four hour day will be under construa. ton in the Tom ReedGold Road Mi ing District within the next nine days Such. at least, are the present plans of the men who are behind the two enterprises Both plants will 1e erected with the object of supplying a growing ore reduction need-in one instance that obtaining at the Unit Eastern mine, and in the other t. tonnage of custom ore which is ~e- cumulatine in various sections of t.c camp
 It is the present plan to start work on the United Eastern mill within the next sixty days and to hasten it 5 completion in order that a reven lC may be secured as quickly as possil from the large body Of high gra }e milling ore that is opened on the geo and 565-foot levels. and which is cc- tinuous from a depth of 300 feet T 70 estimated value of the tonnage now sight is from S1,500 900 to S2OOOOl and this tonnage is being contnuar augmented as the drifts are extend ! in he vein. The general avera -e grade Of the ore opened west of ti shaft on th 565-foot level is S3C 50 pr ton across a breadth of 22 feet Du.- ing the last two weeks free gold ! considerable quantity has featured u la work on the lower level and wheney CT it makes its appearance the gene al average grade Of the ore is appr ciably increased
 UNITED EASTERN MILL.
 The United Eastern company win erect its mill plant at 9 point CO., venieut to the main working shaft. A the ore in the companys mine is i1 every essential particular identical with that being mined in the adioinin Tom Reed workings, the Eastern milling plant will conform closely tl that of the Tom Reed company. Tho exact ore treating capacity of the United Eastern mill has not as ye. been definitely determined. but it will probably be so constructed that other units can be added as the occasion arises. The plans as tentatively out lined contemplate the installation or 20 stamps and the requisite ore crushers tube mills. cyanide appara.- us, etc
 Local rumor asserts that the initi- al capacity of the mill is 10 be sui fcient t0 care for a possible ore ton mage from the Telluride property, brs as Managing Director George Long Of the Eastern is out of the camp on bust ness matters am unable al this wri-- ing to get information on that point at first hand. Long, by the way is in Los Tngelcs comforting with Directors Keith and Mudd on the subjects of the United Eastern mill and the taking over Of the Telluride estate. II is ex- Dected that his return here will soon be followed by the breaking of ground for the mill and the systematic deyel- opment of the Telluride
 RUMOR IS ON THE JOB.
 At the time of filing this dispatch ' is impossible for me to obtain accur- ate information regarding thc TeHu- ride deal Rumor and conjecture Of the most fanciful description are cur rent here and range from the purchase outright Of the Telluride at a very high figure 10 the taking over of the property by the United Eastern peO- pie under a working lease and bond That a deal of some sort for the Tellu- ride has been or is being negotiated seems reasonably certain Personal ly incline 70 inc opinion that the property is to be worked by the Unit ed Eastern management in much the same manner as the old Moss mine IS being worked by the Gold Road com pany That is tho property is to be given a fair test by means Of devel- opment work and sampling Of the ore. and is to be taken over 1T t stands the test
 Reports from Needles, California, the nearest railway point to this camp. are 10 the effect that George Long held a conference there fe wdays ago with certain officials of the Tellu- ride company that he is now going over the salient points thereof with
