for Steady Production.

The Occur d'Alene Anthony Min
ing company will break into the ship
ping column again next week, car
of high grade concentrates now being
loaded at the Pine creek spur, says the
Wardner- Kellogg News. The mill is
being remodeled under tine supervision
of All Dunn, who will have charge of
that part of the work. A fiotation cell
is to be installed at once, which with
power jigs and Wiley tables will eff
feet a close saving of the anthony
values. A full crew will be put to
work in the mine Monday under the
of A. j. Brainard and
regular shipments will be made to the
smelter, the ore blocked out In the
Slopes on the present level being suf-
ficient to permit of steady mill opera
lions. The main shaft will be driven
another 100 feet where a new level
will be opened, the preliminary work
for this now being completed. New
officers have assumed control of the
company, M e. Jolley, of Coulee City,
having been elected president of the
company; H. j. Hibschman of Spo-
kane vice president; c. M. Powell of
Spokane, secretary treasurer The
mine is one of the premier antimony
producers of the United States, hav-
ing been extensively worked a number
of years ago when the ores were smelt-
ed at the mine and the oxides sold
direct to eastern consumers. Under

duct is shipped crude and commands

CALLAHAN DIRECTORS.
Will Hold Meeting at 2 O'Clock This
Afternoon-Aet on Court Order.

A meeting of the directors of the
Callahan Mining company win be held
lat o'clock this afternoon for the
purpose of taking action under the or
der of the supreme court requiring the
company either to reduce its capital
stock by issuing certificates to those
stockholders who desire to exchange
their holdings for shares in the Con-
solidated Interstate Callahan COM
pany, or to dissolve the corporation.
The directors of the Callahan COM
pany are; James +. Callahan,
Frank Boutin and Julian Beatty,
the last named being secretary of the
Interstate Callahan company. No in
timation has been given as to what
action the directors will take. Louis
Hanitch, of Superior, Wis, attorney
for the Callahan company, is also
here
The presence Of Col S. S. Titus, one
OF the directors of the Interstate Cal
lahan, and w. II. McGraw, stock
holder, both of Grand Forks, N. d.,
along with Mr., Beatty and c. w. New
ton, superintendent of the mine, who
is also in the city, has been construed
to indicate that a settlement of the
conflicting interests in the big zinc
company will result from the meeting
of the Callahan directors, 1t can be
stated by authority, however, that the
presence of Col. Titus and Mr. Nc
Graw has no bearing on that point
whatever as their presence is purely
accidental, they being on their way
home from southern California.

road up to the flume There is still

If the cold weather continues it may

CALLAHAN RETURNS.
Brings Bride Home With Him-L'kes
Honolulu and May Return.

James F. Callahan, one of the orig
fnal locators and owners of the Gala
han mine and now the largest In
dividual stoekholder in the famous
Interstate Callahan mine, returned
Tuesday from Los Angeles, where on
March 9 he was married to Helen
Elizabeth Mitchell, daughter of Mrs.
Dan Hardin, who with her husband
now resides at the Tamaraek mine.
The bride came to the Occur d'Alenes
from the Black Hills when a mere
child and has grown to womanhood
here Mr.. Callahan has long been an
intimate friend of Mr.. Hardin and his
family, and if the truth We're told this
marriage is probably a realization of
a dream cherished by the prospector
and miner before he was so lavshly
favored by fortune. Mr.. and Mrs.
Callahan have received most cordial
welcome from the home folks since
their return, for they are widely known
drought the district. They win re-
main here during the summer, If that
word can be properly used, as Mr..
CalIahan's mining interests will re-
quire his attention.
Mr.. Callahan left here soon after the
first of the year and went to Honolulu,
where he remained nearly two months,
and was married at Los Angeles few
days after his return. He thoroughly
enjoyed his stay in the Hawaiian is
lands, and thinks the climate the finest
to be found in any part of the world.
He says he never felt so well in his
life as during his stay in the tropics
and he may be expected to HE himself
to that friendly cline before the blasts
of winter hit the Occur d'Alene hills
again.

company is driving south to cut what

now been extended 265 feet beyond a
point vertically under the lead as To-

vein has a very strong dip to the
south and at this depth, $50 feet, as
Stunning that it holds its course, it will
still be necessary to run considerably
further to catch the vein. The loca-

JOPLIN LEAD AND ZINC
REVIEW FIRST QUARTER
HEAVY OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
PRoFITS-MANY PROPERTIES
CHANGE HANDS

| The production of zine ore Qnclud-
ing calamine) for the first quarter of
the current year. according to the
Lyon Investment Co., was 16S,669,2O4
pounds, which sold for $8,491, 70S. Dur
ing the corresponding period of 1915
the output amounted to 125,693,811
pounds, which sold for $3,636,155, thus
showing an increase for the quarter
Just ended of about "a per cent in pro-
duction and 1873 per cent in value.
The lead output of the past three
months has been 25,755,574 pounds,
which sold for $1,O96,735, as compared
with production of 18,840,200 pounds
that sold for $433,303 during the cor
responding period of last year; an in
crease of 81 per cent in tonnage and
147 per cent in value.
At the present rate of production
the value of this years output of zinc
and lead ores in the Joplin district
will exceed $40OO0,000 as compared
with last years record breaking out
put of more than $26,O00,OO0. During
the past month lead ore reached the
record price of $500 a ton at which it
is now strong and steady.
Fail to Lower Price.
The outstanding event of the past
month was the attempt to lower the
price of zinc ore from $115 to 500 a
ton during the week of March III;
which failed, however, as producers
refused to sell, with the result that
the $115 base was restored the follow
ing week and has since been main
tanned
When prime western spelter reached
the record price of 20 cents a pound
in February the price of go per cent
zinc ore in this district advanced to
$3.50 ton, although on the 5 to / ratio
ore should have brought $3.50 When
operators accepted SIS reduction in
the ore price but refused to stand
further cut with spelter holding firm.
More than $1,0OO,000 worth of prop
critics have changed hands during the
past 80 days and deals are now pend
ing which involve more than double
that amount. Several good mines
that were bought some months ago at
prices which then seemed absurdly
high have already paid back their pur-
chase price in full and are now yield
ing their owner spectacular profits.
