but twice a week samples from the
mine are sent to TonOpah for as
saying. These prove the company
is picking up h~igh-grade that causes
it to rank with the best mines in
the state.
The only cause for not making a
production is the difficulty of Sc
curing delivery of machinery which
was ordered months ago but which
had to be s~ide-tracked on account
Of the pressing nature of war or
ders. This group bought the water
rights of the "Bucky" O'Neill farm,
paying therefor the sum of $4,000
so as to be ready to start the pro-
jected mill as oon as the equip
ment is delivered.
The plans so far contemplate a
mill of $50 tons daily capacity, but
Manager Bruner will not wait for
the complete machinery to arrive
but will begin grinding r with an
initial tonnage of 25 tons a day and
increasing that amount as quickly
as the rest of the plant is finished.
An order for sufficient steel pipe
to bring the water across the 10
miles intervening between the mill
site and the O'Neill farm was plac-
ed three months ago with a positive
promise of speedy delivery but SO
TAR none of the tubing has arrived.

ANTHONY PLANT SOON
READY AT MILL CITY


John Ross, ST., well-known min
ing man, who was in town from Mill
City a few days ago, stated that the
anthony reduction plant now in
course of construction there, under
his supervision, would soon be
ready for the handling of ores. This
plant Is not a smelter but is to
oxidize the pres and produce a high
antimony product, which will be
shipped to an eastern anthony re-
finery.
The Mill City section has long
been noted for it's anthony deposits.
The Bloody canyon mines have been
Under operation for a number of
years, producing ore of a very high
anthony percentage. Other anti
mony mines which have produced a
large amount of ore are located near
Unionville, and, besides the above,
anthony is found in a number OF
other places in that section.-Hum-

GREATLY INCREASE PRODUCTION

one of the Uncle Sam veins for a
distance of 800 feet, with the face
al a vertical depth of 176 feet. This
vein is six feet wide and has main
tanned the same average width so
far as exposed.
In driving the 800 feet and stop
ing as they went along the owners
took out everything between the
walls and shipped without sorting
to the mill at Toulon. The aggre-
gate was nearly $500 tons which
milled 2.11 per cent tungstic sacid-
the value being over $4,000.
On one of the Uncle Sam claims
there is an orebody 40 feet in width
and 1t is claimed that an average
sample taken by w. H. Shewan,
manager of the tungsten property
at Tanning, returned values of 1877
ger cent tungstic acid per ton There
are a number of other veins on the
around.
Emil Stank, one of McCormick's
former partners, is leasing on Cop
ley, Baker and McFadden's ground
end has shipped $50 tons hat run
3 " per cent tungstic acid. He has
ever 400 tons on the dump which
is expected to run equally we'll.
burning and McCloskey have also
been shipping 3k per cent ore from
the River View group which they
recently sold for $4,000, with
burning retaining a lease on a
choice block of the ground. The
Rodgers and johnson lease on this
group was also sold and a $1,000
cash payment made thereon.
L.. A. Friedman, the well-known
TO buy into the camp and has a
shaft down S5 feet on a six-foot vein
which mills 2 per cent tungstic acid.
He also has a tunnel in 165 feet on
the same vein and has shipped about
So carloads of ore. Other own
ers and leassers are shipping stead
lily and the monthly output, measur-
cd in dollars and cents, is n that
few camps of its age can boast of.
Two projects for building mills in
the camp are in contemplation and
it is believed that enough ore is

to keep a 100-ton plant busy for
several years. At the present quo
tations for tungstic acid ore run

Floods in South

Owing to recent heavy rains in
the mountains, when the downpour
reached almost the proportions of
a cloudburst for a period of eight
hours, the valley of the Rio Virgin,
in Clark county, has been expert
encing one of the worst floods in
it's history. At Bunkerville and Mes
quite ranchers were damaged to the
extent of from $1,000 to $500
through land washed away by the
torrent. To in some measure COM
pensate for the damage done the
flood created new land in some plac-
es and where wing dams and break
ers projected into the river much
filling was done.

The tungsten deposits located near
Mill City, 80 miles west OF Win
remucca on the Southern Pacific.
have made that place one of the
live mining centers in northern Ne
,ada. A number of important sales
made lately in the district have
helped greatly to stimulate activity,
for these transfers have brought a
number of new and prominent min
Ing operators into the camp.
At the present time there are
about 100 men at work on the diff
ferent properties and a long string
OF teams are hauling tungsten ore
10 Mill City, from which place 1t is
shipped to Toulon, near Lovelock,
for treatment in the mill there.
These shipments have been going
out regularly ever since the first
openings were made in the camp.
The ore shipments from Mill City
1t the present time average nearly
100 IONS each day, but these ship
laents will be greatly augmented
With the new development work now
in progress there.
According to G. H. Mccormick,
who was one of the original loca-
ton of the camp, who was inter-
viewed by a Reno paper, the tung-
stem belt, as defined by discoveries
ND to this time, is yer three miles
long by a mile and a half wide.
The formation is granite and lime,
With the ore sometimes making on
the contact and sometimes in the
lime.
The most encouraging feature of
the new district, in the opinion of
Mr.. Mccormick, is the fact that the
ere is found in veins and hat the
values have increased as depth has
been gained. Out of II tungsten
properties which he has examined
il. the last few years, this near Mill
City is the only one where the ore
occurs in veins. In the others the
ere was found in punches or de-
posits which usually play out at
shallow depth.
1t is for this reason that good
prices are being paid and in some
OF the deals the full payment has
heen made on the signing of the
Lapers.
The deepest working in the dis
trict is on the Uncle Sam group,
which was one of the McCormick's
original holdings, but which is now
owned by Tom Sutton of Mill City,

lone Mining DISTRICT IS AGAIN
COMMANDING INTEREST," OF Miners

Mining is making rapid progress
in the lone valley in spite of the
fact that little or nothing leaks out
from hat quarter where three u
ties meet. Three large companies
backed by eastern syndicates are
flushing development as fast as ma
chinery and supplies can be de-
livered. One of these companies Is
operating at Granville where the
old property on which the camp was
established is undergoing a thorough
prospecting with a core drill to de-
termine on what scale the future
conduct of the property will be
managed.
This group of claims was taken
over two years ago by w. j. Web
ster, president of the Atlas Powder
company of Wilmington, Del, asso-
Grated with Senator j.. Wesley Stew
art, and run for a short time until
the enormous cost of cyanide and
other supplies compelled them to
suspend work at the old mill.
Then a deal was made with the
men who are back of the United
Eastern mine at Oatman, Ariz., by
which they assumed control with
the idea of developing the mine on
a large and comprehensive scale.
The sale was made through Seeley
W. Mudd, one of the best known
engineers of the west, who now lives
in Los Angeles and through his in
strumentality Keith and Jackling be-
came interested.
The old mill was scrapped and
shipped out as junk from Luning
and the ways cleared for a COM
plete new installation just as soon
as the results of the ore drill can
be classified. The new Ownar took
possession on Jan. l and their find
ings up to date are said to confirm
everything that was said about the
mine. Both Webster and Stewart
retain an interest thus manifesting
their faith in the outcome of the
exploration.
The Bruner Consolidated Gold
Belt Gold Mining company, con-
trolled by the Bruner brothers of

granted by the company, but an ad-

The labor troubles that threatened
for a time to tie up the production
of the mines In the Ely district start
ed last Wednesday, when the fire
men employed on the railroad that
transports the ore from the Nevada
Consolidated Copper company's
mine to the smelter went on strike
when the company refused to e
a demand for an increase of fifty
cents a day in wages and time and
one-half for overtime. The engi-
neers and switchmen soon followed
the firemen and as a result about
half the mill was tied up.

Governor Boyle and State Labor
Commissioner Cole were called at
once to Ely to assist in adjusting
matters.
After several conferences between
the members of the union and the
operators, the men agreed to go back
to work providing their rights were
protected by an adjustment board
and practically every man who went
out returned to work and the mine
production is going on the same as
usual. The strike tied up about half
the property.
When Governor Boyle was in Ely
