The condition of this property has
been satisfactory from the beginning.
and in addition to the shipments that
have been made during the past year
of medium grade ore, considerable
tonnage of lower grade material has
been developed. The value of the
ore shipped has been from $50 to $50
per ton, and is from one to five feet
in width. In places this ore body
runs to and IL feet wide of ore that
can be profitably treated when local
smelters are operating. In an in
terview to-day, d. States, the super
intendent, said:
1--WE have the foundations for the
new machinery ready, and as soon as
the weather permits us to place II
upon them, this will be done. The
new tunnel we are starting on the
Liberty claim will cross cut the for
nation at a depth of about 200 feet
below the present developed ore bod
les, on the old tunnel. With our new
equipment we will be enabled to

Development Work Continues In

The expectations of the manage

siye development plans inaugurated
some time ago, are proving well
founded. Every weeks work is i'm
proying the former showings of ore.
and demonstrating that the theory of
Clarence King, Major Catlin and other
sminent geologists that the Eureka
district ores would not only continue
With depth, but also improve In value.
was correct. 1t Is of enormous i'm
uortance to every one interested in
the district, and while practically all
Of the men well posted in the geo
logy Of the camp believe that the for
msr large production of ore is but
a fraction Of the total that will come
with deeper workings along the min
eralized belt, the Eureka-Croesus de-
yelopments are the first to prove that
this theory is true.
The general character of the ores
being extracted is another feature OF
Importance. In all of their ship
ments, no consignment has ever been
penalized for arsenic, antimony, zinc,
or other Objectionable metal. Some
Of the altered limestone is so thor
oughly silicified that a charge for
silica is made, but this is more satis-
factory to the owners than a cause OF
complaint, as when their smelter Is
erected In Eureka, siliceous ore will
be needed in large quantities for fux-
ing purposes.
julius Huebner, the superintendent,
said to-day:
I'VE are extracting ore now from
four different places, besides going
ahead with the regular development
work. In the Dunderberg stope we
are cleaning out an old drift that was
filed with waste years ago, and do
ing other things necessary to carry
out exploration work near the old
workings. There is no question in
my mind that we will find ore bodies
when this is under way. that will
equal those in the mine when former
ly operated. AS miners who have
worked in limestone well know, 1t is
only by systematic development that
this formation can be thoroughly pros
pected. A familiar example of what
can happen occurred this week on the
Ao-foot level, where we are driving
north along a strong fissure. The
walls here are we'll defined and
smooth, and a big slab fell from the
east wall near the face of the drift.
On Inspecting the hole. an ore show
ing was found behind where the slab
had been, and a short cross cut has
already exposed four feet of shipp'EG
grade material.
III the weather continues pleas
ant, | will finish the grade for two
new compressors In about five days.
These will furnish air for eight more
drills.
We have made no ore shipments
this week, as the teams have been
busy hauling supplies to the Eureka
King and Eureka Climax properties.
II no snow comes. this work will be
concluded shortly and ore shipments
resumed"

here in the place where it is made and
where the means Of the people scarcely
will afford them to pay Is cents, the
price is fixed at close on 3 cents more
than the gross price abroad. II appears
to many thinking people that there is an
oversight somewhere, and this matter is
presented for consideration. The whole
sale price of sugar in the island ought to
be fixed at what the article nets in New

margin of profit for retailers when they
turn it over here at the gross price, at
