The property is located about nine

NJ Mundel of Wallace is president
and manager of the company. Mr.
Mundell has owned and operated the
property for the past - years and has
done Great deal of important de-

that there are at least seven fssure
veins on the property all showing sill
Ver-lead values. and it will be the
purpose of this new development work
to open up the most promising of
these veins. Several mining engineers
have examined and passed favorable

Bunker Hill Zinc Smelter.
Many things are transporting which
indicate that the Pine creek country is
coming to the front this year Take
for instance the building of the new
Bunker Hill zinc unit for the treat
ment of electrolytic zinc ores. and
which is reported to be costing the
Bunker Hin company at least $1,000
900, and the erection Of the new Bun
ker Hill zinc concentrating plant at
Sweeney, which is already practically
completed
In addition to these facts we have
the supposedly reliable report that the
railroad up Pine creek will be COM
pleted this season We quote below
what the Wardner- Kellogg News has
to say about the railroad:

For Several weeks it has been ru-
mored that the Pine creek branch OF
the O.-W. r. & ~ is TO be repaired
and construction completed to just be-
low the forks Of the creek Ever since

subsidiary of the Central Warehouse

mills at Spokane and at coast points.
began the construction of its Inill on
the west fork last simmer. il has been
said by the wise ones that il WAS hlit
a matter of months until construction
Of the branch from its present point
about two miles up the creek to the
fork would be begun. Railroad people
and engineers have recently been over
the ground and it is now learned the
road is 20 be constructed as far as the
school house just above Beeler. where
another timber industry has been es-
tablished
This extension will place the road
as far mp the creek as the Lookout
Mountain property where il is said n
temporary terminal for the handling
of Pine creek ore will be constructed,
the road to be extended up the east
fork as soon as arrangements can be
made for disposal OF ore from that
section. or as soon as the contemplate

METAL MARKET REVIEW.

The daily advance in copper prices
has continued until now 16.75c deliver
ed has been reached, this figure being
generally quoted by all producers to-
day. Some copper was also sold at
that price yesterday, though early ia
the day two or three producers had
not yet come up to that level. Sales
have not been quite so great as last
week, but this has been more because
producers have been inclined to dis
courage reckless buying rather than
any lack of inquiry. A particularly
encouraging feature of the week has
been a good export demand, which has
made some producers care little about
booking further domestic orders. Some
of the export business has been for
the orient.
Lead
The official contract price of the
American Smelling & Refining COM
pany was advanced on February %
from to S.1Oc., New York.
The market is somewhat frmer
though no unusual activity has mark
ed the week and lead is available for
almost any delivery in any reasonable
quantity. The Importation of virtual

served to take care of even the large
current needs of domestic consumers.
\ few lots of lead have been sold at
premium prices. one lot for forward
delivery bringing as high as S35c.
but most of the business has been
placed on the books at S.1Oc
The st. Louis market continues
slightly above that at New York, with
sales reported as high as S25c Yes

for any delivery was offered at S.2Oc..

Sales of zinc have been brisk and of

NEW MINERAL BELT
SOUTH OF WALLACE
NEGLECTED DISTRICT SHOWS
SIGNS OF LlFE-NEW FIELD
FOR CAPITAL.

There is being developed south o
Wallace new mineral belt which
may in time add materially 10 the re-
sources of the district and at once
opens mp a wide field for capital foi
new mineral development. This dis
trict lies between the Galena mining
property below Wallace and the ANA
zon-D Dixie mine at Shdix Mont, just
across the Idaho line
The Galena has recently been taken
over by the Callahan interests and is
conceded to be a mine, while the Am
AEON Dixie has just opened ore bodies
which place it in the same class. Both
these properties are planning on mill
ing plants to be erected in the near
future.
These two properties are practically
II miles apart, and the country in be-
tween is highly mneralzed on the
surface. but is practically mprospect-
ed. There are many huge iron carps
along this belt which compare favor
ably with the iron caps on the North
Side where so many big and profitable
mines have been developed
This mineral belt is three to four
miles wide and offers exceptional OPP
portunities for intelligent prospecting
Quite a number of properties have
been located on this belt and consider.
able work done, but not enough TO de
termine the worth of the ground
There are number of prominent out
crops in the Placer creek water shed
south of Wallace which are easy of ac-
cess and development South of Null
Ian there are also huge outcrops of
iron with lead and copper contents on
the surface; mineral showings which
justify deep development. when YOU
consider that they are located in the
greatest lead-silver producing district
in the world today.
This particular part Of the district
never did have any reputation except
bad one but Judging from the ap-
pearance of the Amazon Dixie. the
district bids fair to step ont of its
ugly duckling" role and become the
real goose that layed the golden eggs.

and much capital is required but
there is no better district in the coun-
try where capital can he expended
with a chance for better results
West of Wallace this belt extends to
the Bunker Hill holdings, and in this
part of the district there is consider
able activity several old properties
having been taken over by leasers
many of whom are producing high
grade siver-lead ore The Bunker
Hill company has extended operations
on this belt as far east as Big creek
where it took over the Scott Anderson
holdings last year The Bunker Hin is !

property in the surface workings and !
in addition one of the Bunker Hill hn-
nels is being extended into the prop |

The development of the Galena and
the Amazon Dixie will be watched
with much interest by mining men
and if they prove successful there win
be much money expended and many
men employed in this new district

it invariably dons the Orange and
