Vienna Newspapers Warn the Pub
lie to Expect Entrance of
Greece Into Conflict
at Any Time.
ALLIES SMASHING BULGAR-
IANS FROM TWO DIRECTIONS
British, French and Serbians Open
Offensive Along Macedonian
Front.

London, Sept. 12.-Greece is near
er than ever to war today with the
beginning of the allied offensive in
the Balkans. The Greek cabinet has
rendered it's resignation. The Brit
ish have captured five villages. The
Bulgarian right wing is in retreat
pursued by the Anglo-French troops.
Vienna papers have warned their
public that Greece may be expected
to join the allies at once. The con-
tinuance of the allied offensive will
end the Bulgarian invasion of Rou-
mania. In this offensive the Turk
ish troops have come to the aid Of
the Germans and Bulgarians in the
invasion of Roumania.
London, Sept. 12.-Bulgaria is
being placed between two great al
lied offensives, according to the lat
est accounts from the Balkans. The
British, Serbians and French have
begun concerted attack along the
Macedonian front while large forces
of Russians have been rushed to Ru-
mania to aid in the smash from the
north.
Probably the most significant
move was that of the British in the
Struma region. Here, after hard
fighting, the British threw their
forces across the Struma at the
southern end of Lake Tabinos,
which lies between Sores and Orfa-
no, and at several other places near
the lake. In addition four villages
were captured and held notwith-
standing heavy counter attacks by
the Teutonic allies.
The French are assailing from
the Vardar river to Lake Dorian and
Paris reports the Bulgarians retir-
ing under the strong pressure of the
entente attacks.
At the beginning of the Mace
DOMAIN operations last month the
Bulgarians pushed down rapidly
from the border and occupied posi-
tions in Greek territory on the right
flank Of the allied defensive lines
around Saloniki, pushing their ad-
vance to the Aegean coast with lit
tie opposition.
The present British thrust is di-
rected along the main road to Sores,
north of Tabinos lake, the natural
avenue of advance for an army push
ing towards the Bulgarian border.

PROSPECT LAToUR CREEK.
Mineral indications Point to Strong
Leads.

A number of prospectors have late
ly gone into the Latour creek district,
q few miles west of the Pine creek
belt, and reports from some of them
are to the effect that indications point
strongly to the finding of a well de-
fined mineral belt. Several claims
have been located up near the base of
Mount Baldy and the preliminary
work shows some values in lead, silver
and zinc.
The Latour creek district has been
prospected but little and its geology
is practically unknown. The start
made on the railroad up the creek to
tap the timber belt stimulated efforts
to find minerals and it is probable
winter operations will be carried along
in several prospects. John Swoney
and partner are spending their second
winter in that section, where they
have a group of claims, and they OPP
timistic over the future there and ex-
pect to see much activity up near the
head of the creek next spring.

have about 1000 tons broken down and
in the chutes," said Manager Guyer.
This ore will average 6.6 in lead, 1915
lin zinc and 2.3 ounces silver All of
1.-THE tonnage officially estimated is
above the No. level This great tom
mage is accounted for by the fact thai
former operators did not go through
the faults nor into the footwal where
we have developed ore to the estim-
ated amount of 275,000 tons.
We expect a fair recovery in the
mill and the management is fully pre-
pared to install any improvements
necessary to bring the plant to it's
highest efficiency.
Development work below the No.
level is in progress, also on the Okan-
ogan vein on the No. level Sinking
of the main shaft will be resumed
about the middle of the month"
During the past month the mine has
on ployed IS men, the monthly ex4
penditure averaging close to $4,000.
Manager Guyer is giving his personal
attention to the work and anticipates
no further delay in placing the prop
eIty on steady shipping basis.

Paying Basis.

Paying Basis.
The Richmond copper property, near
Saltese, is quietly making record for
itself and gives assurance of placing
the Coeur d,Alenes in the copper pro-
ducing column with substantial figures
for the years run. Manager Lancaster
was in town the first of the week and
gives out an optimistic statement as
to the work at the mine. During the
past three months some 1S cars of ore
have been shipped, the ore now going
to the Anaconda company. The ship
ments carry good copper and gold val
ues, a Acton car netting in the neigh
borhood of $1,000. The management
expects to soon be in position to pro-
duce from one to two cars daily Of 10
per cent copper and bring the mine to
basis where it win clear $4,000 per
month for it's stockholders.
Road building work is now under

Rex Consolidated Joins List of Shippers

The Rex Consolidated joins the
ranks of the shippers this week, there
by bringing to successful issue the
acduous work Of the past few months
during which time the present man
agement has practically made a new
mine out of an old working and has
equipped the property with modern
machinery capable OF handling the ore
on profit making basis
The new crushers and sorting .'iant
have been tested out during the last
two days and found to work satisfac-
tory. The new tramway was given
its initial test and 1t was decided ne
cessary to erect another tower in ad-
dition to the 10 now in use. A triplex
De8ne pump has been installed on the
No. level which is capable of taking
care of all the water in the shaft with
one lift.
In speaking of the operations Ray

OLD VETERAN DRIFT
NEARS ORE BODY
BURKE PROPERTY GIVES lNDI.
CATION OF GETTING INTO
PAY ORE.

The drift on the vein at the prop.
erty of the Old Veteran Mining com.
pany, located a short distance above
Burke, has now been advanced $50 feet
toward the ore showing developed in
the upper tunnel Every indication
for the opening of a body of CONNER
eial ore is at hand and the manage
ment feels confident that once the
tdrift reaches a poant beneath the car
Donate ore In the No. 2 tunnel that
pay dirt will be uncovered. The fact
that ore values have been encountered
fully 100 feet ahead of point expect
ed in the drift has been very en-
tonraging indication to those IN
charge.
The end Of the ore shoot in the up-
per levels Is still some 800 feet ahead
or the face Of the present drift, al
though the rake of the ore to the west
will cut down this distance somewhat.
Some good looking samples were
brought down the first of the week by
L. L. Brainard secretary treasurer of
the corporation, which have excited
considerable interest in the future of
the property. The formation in the
vein is of carbonate nature, carrying
some values at the present time in
lead and silver, with traces of copper
visible. On the footwall side a heavy
tale gouge Is present, which has per-
sisted for over 100 feet in the drift
without interruption, The vein is well
defined, mining men who have visited
the property stating that the hssure
was one of the best defined in the dis
trict, running true to the course of the
mineral bearing veins of the Occur
dAlenes. Manager M. j. Farrell is
personally directing the work and is
confident of developing another ship

PINE CREEK ATTRACTS
CAPITAL FROM MONTANA
ANAcoNDA's ACTIVITIES CAUSES
OTHERS TO TAKE
NOTICE.

The increased activity of the Ana
conda Copper company in the Pine
creek district has caused other con-
Germs to begin an investigation of the
ore deposits in that section of the
coeur d'Alenes and may result in a
rapid development of some of the pro-
missing properties Rumors of a con-
solidation of several of the larger pro-
perties and the purchase of same by
eastern holding companies are heard
and it is practically certain that the
Anaconda company will acquire con-
troll of two or more mines along the
creek in the near future.
Railroad building will be under way
in the early spring, according to those
in close touch with affairs in that dis
trict, and adequate transportation fac
ilities will be afforded all of the pro-
ducers as soon as this is done.
At the Highland Surprise the devel-
opment work is revealing a large ton
rage of ore reserves and the future of
the property as steady shipper is as
sured. New improvements in the mill
are being made and plans outlined for
more extensive operations under
ground
The Constitution developments are
regarded as highly satisfactory by
those in charge and by another season
the shipments are expected to be mat
erially increased from this property.
The Nabob-D Denver ore strike has
been cause for real boom on the creek
and the showing in the Denver tunnel
justifes every claim that a bonanza
ore shoot has been uncovered. With
from four to eight feet of clean ship
ping ore exposed for nearly 100 feet
in the Denver vein, carrying values of
40 90 per cent zinc, together with
a showing of galena running up to
90 per cent in lead, it is little wonder
that mining men regard the find as an
important one and expect to see greater
developments with added depth.

The work is progressing at satisfac-
tory rate. The Denver ore win now
be uncovered 100 feet deeper through

crate Under Homes.
Property owners of Wardner have
practically all signed the easements
asked for by William Beaudry grant
ing permission to seek for ore beneath
the homes, streets and alleys in the
townsite. The easements recite that
no damage is to be done to surface
property and that from any ores ex-
traced from beneath lot the owner
thereof is to receive five per cent.
Mr.. Beaudry is not giving out any
information as to his probable course
of action but it Is understood that
deep shaft is to be sunk from which
crosscuts will be run and an effort
made to intercept the main leads eros
sing the gulch from the Caledonia

the opinion that these leads can be cut
in enriched sections with sufficient
depth and 1t is confidently expected a
effort will be made to do
