IS
Showing LIFE
With Mining
Next Cleanup in January Ex-
pected to Bring Substantial
Realization

With the next mil cleanup
scheduled for early January, the
new cyanide plant Of the Can
delaria Mines company is now
treating 800 tons of ore daily
and its mechanical operation Is
said to be perfect. With only
one ball mill in commission dur
ing the earlier period of opera
ton the capacity was brought up
to more than 100 tons without
difficulty, and since starting the
second ball mill it is indicated
that the present equipment can
be made to handle $50 tons daily
with satisfactory results. The
transportation system is func-
tioning as expected, delivering
ore from all parts of the big
property. and the electric hoist
for the Northern Belle shaft will
be working shortly, affording an
outlet for ore from the deep
levels. where there are several
large blocks of high-grade ore.
President c. D. Kaeding, who
left this week for San Francisco
after having spent more than a
week at the mine, expressed sat,
isfaction over the condition OF
the mine workings and the ay-
erage grade of ore exposed IN
the various sections of the
nropertv. The recent dlscov-
ery on the main tunnel level IN
the Northern Belle has main
tanned its early tonnage of high
Grade ore. 1t is believed that
this ore can be correlated with
the famous Yankee stope that
produced $8,OOO,0O0 from levels
above.
]. f. Thorn "a widely known
engineer and at one time gen,
eraI manager for the Goldfield
Consolidated Mines company, has
beeu retained to supervise the
enuipeering work for the Can
delaria company during the alb
sence Of President Kaeding.

DEEP MINES IS
GREAT INTEREST
TO INVESTORS
Circular Explains just How
Matters Are to Be Handled
in the Future

The Goldfield Deep Mines com
pany Is out with a letter to
stockholders that seems of CON
siderable interest 70 them and
the public 1t contains several
lmportau, announcements. First
is the statement that arrange
mentS have been completed with
the Security Transfer and Reg
ister company Of 66 Broadway
New York. to act as transfer
agents for our stock. This gives
both an eastern and a western
transfer office, New York or
Goldficld, whichever Is most ron
yenient. -
Another very interesting state
ment is, in effect, that arrange
ments made with eastern capital
are such that We are confident
that. with the funds in hand and
what will be supplied, we shall
have enough to complete the
sinking of our shaft to the 240Q-
foot level without making any
more assessments on stock
holders. "
Regarding the progress of
work. the circular says:
Our shaft has reached the
depth of 400 feet, with firm da-
cite formation in the bottom. As
we gain depth this favorable da-
cite is becoming firmer. In this
rock hanging wall veins may be
encountered at any time, IN
which event ore should be en-
countered, as the country rock
is comparable to that in which
the rich veins Of the district have
been found" "
Regarding the progress of
work that may be looked for
from now on the circular from
Secretary H. G. McMahon says :
1--WE continue as in the past
to operate in the shaft with three
shifts and, while in the past we
have been able to make ) feet
of depth each "a hours IN the
full 9 by % opening continuous
" for weeks without Interrupt
ton, we will not be able to keep
up this rate at present, owing
to the hardening of the rock,
indicative of nearing a vein, and
the fact that greater depth usual
ly slows up operations.
Secretary Mcmahon also
touches upon another subject OF
interest With the decline Of
mining operations after the Gold.
field boom came the natural
shrinkage in volume of business
and the merchants began to limit
the stocks of goods carried. Par
tieularly was this true in the
matter of mine supplies. At one
time is was only possible to pur
chase in Goldfield such supplies
as of everyday use, such as pow
der. candles. fuse and caps OF
ten the long delays were expert
enced in waiting for parts Of ma
chinerv. etc The Deep Mines
company, as it was itself a large
consumer, laid in a complete
stock of supplies, and the out
come of the venture was watched
with interest. OF this branch o
the business the circular says:
"Our plan of empOying sur
plus cash keeping an ample sup
ply of stores on hand has provel
very satisfactory, in that we ar
able to sell supplies to other com
panies at a modest profit, a
well as to keep abundant sup
plies for our own use, thereb,
