! Especial Correspondence
LOVELOCK, August 10.-Followine
is report of the weeks development
work on the Friedman properties, as
given out from the general Offices in
this city:
Rochester Mines Company
On the S00-foot level north the
drift is still advancing in the ore
| body varying in width from fifteen to
| twenty-four feet in ore of as good a
grade as has ever been encountered
on this level. A raise from this level
is now up sixty feet, with neither
hanging nor footwall in sight
The 900-foot level north is advanc-
ing in the same grade of ore as we
have on the S00-foot level and which
is a continuation of the rich ore shoot.
The Friedman raise has been connect
ed with the S00-foot level so as TO
eliminate the handling of ore by skip.
by this connection We are able to drop
the ore from the~ 800-foot level to the
Friedman tunnel level without the aid
of machinery or hosting apparatus,
and which has reduced the cost of
mining TO minimum.
The bullion shipment made on the
9th of this month. covering the pro-
duction for July. amounted to $685.
355. The capacity of the mill for the
past week has been 1913 tons per day.
Rochester Combined Mines Company
As good progress as usual has been
and owing to the mine surveyors time
being occupied in doing surface sur
yey work, such as pipe lines, electric
haulage, grading. ETC.. we are able to
report the footage of the various
working places.
We have started a new drift from
he Maynaugh tunnel which has ad-
yaneed approximately thirty feet, all
in a good grade of ore.
The Kroner drift, which has ad-
yanced seventy-fye feet. has encoun-
tered sulphide ore.
A new crosscut has been started on
the Link No. 8 which will cut the big
quartz outcropping on the apex Of the
hill. AS yet we have made no surveys
and are unable to determine the dis
tance this crosscut will have to be
driven before the outcropping is en-
countered.
The mill building proper is advanc-
ing rapidly and the machinery is ar
irving daily.
Seven Troughs Coalition Mining Co.
The second winze started from the
main drift on the 1,600-foot level is
now down approximately twenty feet
in rather a broken-up zone. AS be-
fore stated, we expect to have to drift
further south before an ore shoot is
encountered.
Seven Tr0ughs Mining Company
Nothing unusual to write on this
property this week; however, will
state that we are continually encoun-
tering punches of high-grade and ex-
tracing a considerable amount OF
shipping and milling grade ore.

Mr.. HOLT of Cumberland: Mr..
President, I move that the majority
report fought not to pass" be adopted
and in single explanation I will say that
this act is the one previously referred
to. 1t was a tax collected at the time
stock in the Maine Central Railroad was
| held by certain trustees VINO neio II
for the purpose of getting the Maine
Central stock which was out OF the
state into the State. On the legal ques-
ton involved, the former attorney gen.
eral and the present attorney general
are Of the opinion that there Is no merit
in this act; that is, that this does not
belong to the various cities and towns
where this stock is owned, and for that
reason the majority of the committee
were AGAINST the passage Of this act.
I will not go into the history OF the
matter, but will simply say that 1t Is
very clear that this stock was not owned
in the various cities and towns in the
State. 1t was held by trustees who
were at that time residents of the
city of Portland, and If there is any
claim to this money 1t is by the city of
| Portland
