Engineering and Mining. Journal re-
view of metal market for week end
ing october 19:
The production in September was
trifle larger than in August. How
ever the figures reflect only the out
put of refined pig lead, and not the
basic production of the mines, which
is probably decreasing rather than
increasing. Nevertheless, the situa-
ton in lead is distinctly easier, owing
to the excellent management of the
lead committee in controlling non es-
sential uses.
Our Washington correspondent
writes that reports reaching Pope
Yeatman, of the war industries board,
are to the effect that an improvement
has taken place in the lead situation
production was a week oVersold on
October !, and there is a possibility
that the companies will catch up
within the next 30 days on orders that
have been cleared The effect of the
work of the many agencies operating
to conserve the supply is becoming
more and more apparent. There is
now enough lead to keep essential
users supplied How long the present
good freight movement will last is a
question that is giving considerable
concern.
The decline continued, and some low
prices were accepted, but the appear
ance of some large orders on Monday
had the effect of checking any tend
ency toward decentralization. Low
prices were named for the business
that was taken.
Copper.
The refinery production in Septem-
Der fell below the figures for August.
The refiners are constantly falling be-
hind their expectations. This month
the production will be diminished, ow-
ing to labor troubles. The men work
ing in the refineries near Perth Am
boy who were frightened away in the
recent explosion, have not yet fully
returned. Now influenza is making
serious inroads.
Tungsten Ore.
Chinese supplies are being offered
more and more freely in this market.
Some of this ore is of high grade and
relatively free from impurities, but
other supplies are impure and un
ferrotungsten by direct smelling. The
works employing the chemical process
are of limited capacity, and the ore
supply seems to be In excess of what
they will take.

THRoNDSoN PROPERTY.
Adopts Improved Plan of Conveying
Feed to the Mill.

Tcco 10 tno WILL,
The Throndson Metals Saving COM
pany, which has mill opposite the
mouth Of Pine creek for the retreat
ment of tailings. is installing barge
on the bow of which is a device that
operates somewhat similar to the
buckets of a dredge, which conveys
the tailings upon the barge from
which suction pump forces them
through a pipe to a Dorr thickener,
whence they pass to the mill proper
and the values recovered on concen-
trating tables and by flotation. The
company originally installed an eleva-
tor similar to the one in use at the
tailings plant between this city and
Mullan, but this was found impracti-
cal owing to the flow of water from
springs underneath the imbedded
tailings which made the handling of
too much water unavoidable. The
barge and paraphernalia connected
with it are expected to be in opera
ton Saturday. The system is the
same that Is in successful use at the
Hays mill, on the opposite side of the
canyon. The Throndson mill has a
capacity of 200 tons per day and it is
expected that the full capacity will
soon be utilized.

IMPORTANT STRIKE is MADE
IN ST. LAWRENCE TUNNEL.

According to reliable informa-
tion received from Saltese, the
main ore shoot has been struck in
the lower tunnel of the st. Lawr-
ence, showing several feet of high
grade copper ore. This tunnel Is
200 feet below the upper work.
ings, and the strike proves the
continuation of the rich ore body
from which extensive shipments
have been made. This strike has
been anticipated for some time.
1t is understood that raise will
soon be made connecting the two
levels and the drift continued,
which will make available a large
amount of shipping ore. The new
wagon road is practically COM
pleted which will be open for
traffic all Winter and it is expect
ed that the movement of ore will
soon begin and that the st. Lawr-
ence will be one of the busiest
spots in the East Coeur d'Alene
district. The mine is under the
management of Henry M. Ian
caster and the control is held by
Pittsburg capitalists. The orig
inal owners are Angus and d. S.
Sutherland, of this city, and the
strike here recorded seems to
make it certain that the payments
on the bond under which the pro-
perty is held will be made as they
come due.

SUCCESS MINE HAS FINE
BODY OF ORE ON 1000

The Success seems to be an
other example of a mine coming
back. The present management
Is not given to making much noise
about the operation of the prop
erty, but information received
from an authentic source indi-
Gates that gratifying progress is
peing made in developing new ore
bodies. On the 1900 level, west of
the raise, there is a solid body of
zinc-lead ore Z feet wide, and on
the 400 and 1900 levels the stopes
show large bodies of equally good
ore. This week the company
shipped six carloads of zinc con-
centrates and three carloads of
lead, and this represents the
present proportion of lead and
zinc that is being produced. The
increase in the amount of lead is
one of the most satisfying feat
ures of the situation. The mill is
running only one shift and is do
ing excellent work.
In addition to these operations,
the Success company has leased
the upper workings to M. E. Gard
ner, which evidently is proving
very profitable. This week the
leaser shipped a carload of lead
ore and will probably have an
other ready for shipment by the
end of the week.

FOUR SERVICE STARS.
Silver Mountain Secretary Has Proud
Distinction.

Distinction.
W. E. Horstkotte, of Potlatch, Ida
no, secretary of the Silver Mountain
Mining company, was in the city the
first of the week to inspect the pro-
perty of the company. While here he
and other directors awarded a con-
tract to extend the main drift so feet,
and he expressed the belief that the
completion of this work would result
in disclosing commercial ore. The
Silver Mountain Is situated on the
south side of the river about half way
between this city and Mullan.
1t was observed that Mr.. Horstkotte
wore a service pin containing four
stars, and in response to an inquiry
he said that he had four sons in the
army, two of whom are captains
serving in France and one lieutenant
at present in this country and acting
as instructor in the signal corps. The
fourth is corporal eagerly waiting
to be sent to the front and confident
that he will return wearing the in
sigma Of a commissioned officer. A
fifth son has been disqualified on ac-
count of physical disability, but hopes
to overcome this before the kaiser
capitulates. Mr.. Horstkotte expressed
special pride in the fact that all sons
were volunteers. He was born in st.
Louis and his parents were natives of
Germany.

BOND DRIVE.
Shoshone County Exceeds Quota by
Almost 100000.

Shoshone county responded to the
fourth Liberty loan with the same
spirit which carried her over the top
in the preceding drives. While the
apportionment to this county was
generally regarded as excessive, no
protest was made. The organization
for covering the county by commit
teemen was perfected and effective
steps taken which aroused patriotic
interest in the success of the drive. In
all parts of the county the people re-
sponded most loyalty. The report Of
the county chairman, James F. Nc
Carthy, shows the total subscriptions
to be $1421, $50 The allotment to this
county was $1,35O,OOO, making an

Argentine Flyers
Cross Andes After
Many Failing Attempts

Buenos Aires. April 15.-Corre-
spondance of The Associated Press.)
After many fruitless attempts. the
military flying corps has
achieved its one great ambition-the
crossing Of the Andes mountains in a
heavier than air machine. Although
the Andes had been crossed by bal
looms, no one ever had been able to
get over them with an airplane.
berry, the son of an American, lost his
life in the attempt some years ago.
The successful flight has just been
made by Lieut.. Luis c. Candelaria, Of
the Argentine army, in a machine Of
eighty horsepower.
Because of the many failures and
the dangerous air currents. the war
department refused to permit any
more attempts to be made in the
region near Mendoza and gave its
consent to Candelaria's flight only on
condition that it be made on the
thirty-ninth parallel Of latitude.
The flight was made from Zapala,
Argentina, to Cunco, Chile, q straight
line distance of approximately 112
miles. The mountain ranges in this
region have an altitude Of 5000
meters and it is believed that the
fight was made at a much higher al
titude to permit landing facilities in
case of accident. The crossing was
made in a part Of the country which
has little Geographic communication
with the outside world and the details
Of this record flight were not expect
ed until Lieutenant Candelaria re-
turned to Buenos Aires to make his
report to the war department.
Candelara is one Of the most
promising of the Argentine aviators
He completed his flying course in six
month";. sf 81. : -
Just before his successful flight,
Candelaria made several trial flights
for altitude to put his machine to a
severe test before trusting it to the
winds Of the Andes.
