Work in Mining Progressing in
Various Camps, with GOodly
ShOwings Made.

Monday evening Mr.. T. P.
Brinegar returned from Alamos,
where he had gone about ten
days ago, attending to work in
the properties of the Plata Fina
Mining Company of which he is
manager.
The company named has the
COcharamba mine, in the vicin-
Iity of Promontorio, one of the
richest mining regions in the
rich Alamos region, noted
through two centuries for the
richness of it's silver mines,
which have produced many mil
lions of dollars of that precious
metal, with a deaf of gold and
copper.
In the Cocharamba the Plata
Fina Company has about 2400
feet of work in four big ore
Ichutes, which they have been
eight years in accomplishing.
Disturbed conditions that pre-
vailed so long delayed the work,
or the showing would have been
far greater. With the better
conditions prevailing there is a
probability of work being push
ed much more rapidly, although
the embargo on powder from the
United States works diSad-
vantage.
In the Cocharamba property
the principal ore body is a large
concentration proposition, with
lareg ore bodies exposed that
will run thirty ounces per ton in
silver, and as they concentrate
readily they can be worked
profitably with appropriate ma
chinery, provision for which is
in contemplation by the COM
pany.,
The large ore body described
is permeated by rich streaks of
high grade ore, some of which
runs away up in copper and sill
yer. A chute of .65 feet of that
kind of rock, four inches to two
feet in width, has been develop
ed. MI. Brinegar brought out
with him some large specimens
weighing about 100 pounds, that
are beauties, and very rich. He
states that development work
on large scale will be projected
as soon as the Southern Pacific
of Mexico reopens its Alamos
branch and runs regular trains.

posed bill subjectinR to registration

From the two mllaion men in class

by new legislation, General Crowds
has advised senator's shat IL will be
improbable that calls win go outside
OF the highest class.
Plans for the new draft are some
what unsettled by the house amend
ment 70 the senate bill changing
basis Of quotas from state popula
tions to the number OF men in class
1, which would give credit TO states
for all men previously furnished.
Operation or the house amendment.
according to General Crowder, would
cause much inequality between
states IN the new draft. Agricultural
states, he has advised the committee,
would have to furnish the largest
new quotas and 1t is doubted wheEh-
or this would be advisable
in view Of necessity for undifninlshed
food production.
According to preliminary inquiry
OF the provost marshal generals Of
fee, OF the house amendment, three
states would be exempt entirely from

Bcause OF the disproportions arig-
ing under the house plans, General
Crowder has obtained an agreement
from Congressional leaders to post
pone action on the bill until a cars-
f1l analysis Of results is available.
