he weeks output for the Tonopah
mines. All the ore being produc-:
ed from the Cash Boy is considerably
above milling grade. as gagged by
Tonopah standards, and a substantial
surplus is being piled up for the eX-
tension of development work in
the mine.
TonOpah Extension
The Tonopah Extension completed
it's cleanup for the first two weeks
in June during the week just passed,
and as a consequence shipped to the
smelters 81 bars of bullion averaging
over 10000 ounces apiece, the aggre-
gate weight being 63,S75 ounces
The valuation placed upon the ship
ment by the management is $5S,0OO,
but with the constantly enhancing
value of silver, which forms a large
proportion of the bullion bars, this
foure is regarded as extremely con-
sentative, and undoubtedly the ac-
tual returns will be above such fig
ure.
The leading feature OF the pre-
sent weeks report is the statement
that the work of cutting out the
station at the 16S0-foot point is
now we'll under way. There has
been no further trouble with the
water, which has been held in con-
troll through the use of the sinking
pump which was installed recently
AS soon as the station work Is com
rleted, and lateral development
work has been started, it is eX-
pected that the new power plant
will be in commission, and this will
allow of the uninterrupted dewater-
ing of the shaft and the resumption
of shaft-deepening operations, fol-
lowing which it is anticipated tina
he main campaign of development
in the Victor portion of the EXten-
sion property will be lnaugurated
on what will be known as the
1S0O-foot level.

which is well spotted with sui
phides. While the management is
not given to predicting anything
better than is shown. the condi-
tions are such as to make the pros
poets very promising. The raise
from the 1859 stope is following up
the vein and is yielding some mill
ore of average grade, which, ac-
cording to the North Stars valua-
tions, goes better than the general
rating of Tonopah ores. Both in
termediates have broken into a
faulted condition, and are not look
ing so good as formerly. Progress
in these workings has been impeded
by reason of the fact that consider
able timbering is required,
A shipment is now being pre-
pared, and this will most likely go
forward on Monday or Tuesday.
While the development work pro
ceeds, some minor prospecting work
is going on at the upper levels.
Rescue-Eula
Everything is going along in
satisfactory manner at the Rescue
Eula mine, according to the pre-
sent report of the management,
Work in $50 territory, both to the
south and the east, is making good
Roadway in a fine big block of
trachyte and with almost II round
of shots a new producing area may
be found.
Buckeye-BelmOnt
The Buckeye Belmont will this
coming week increase the force of
men and push work with greater
speed than ever. Several upraises
will be run by contract, and the
drift extended rapidly toward the
Buckeye-Eagle shaft which will !
come the central working shaft of
the company. The upraises un the
vein will be to develop better ton
nages of low grade ore al-eadv
