UNITED EASTERN |S
 BUILDING NEW MILL
Special Correspondence)


 CATMAN, July 18.-With fifty men at work on the new mill for the United Eastern, great headway is be- ing made and il now appears that the mill will be working on ore about the middle of November.
 A number of parts are on the ground, the sections having arrived from Kingman early in the week.
 The Eastern mill which will be a Marcy outfit will be without stamps or plates. This character of reduction plant will be the first of it's kind in this section.
 A Marcy mill is built along the lines of tube mill with the excep- tion that it takes rock directly from the crusher. For the crushing chrome steel balls are used instead of peb- bes
 Dorr machinery will be used and the Merrill filter precipitating presses will be an added feature A. L. War tenweileT of Los Angeles. the noted mill expert has complete charge of the building of the mill and it is his plan to have it modern in every re- spect.
 It is the general expression here that the United Eastern has over Sl2 900 ore blocked out This is | a conservative figure Some have l placed the figure at s15,O00, 900 and some have gone as far as to say $2O,OOO,O0O. Be it as it may they have over s10,0O,000 ore in sight right now. | On the dump there is better than | $3,OO0,O 900
 Those in charge of the erection of l the mill say that the daily capacity will be 200 tons. The value of the ore as opened up in the mine will average about s30 per ton. These figures are based on the assays given out from time to time
 It don't take much figuring to prove that according to these figures the company will be in a position to put out better than s150,00O bullion per month
 This will place the United Eastern in line as one of the biggest produc- CTS in the country.
