s Extending Tunnel Startedby Smelter to Tap Lead

Veins

While little noise Is being made by theowners of lead claims In McGill miningdistrict and while no apparent effort Isbeing made to attract attention at thistime to the big lend prospocts In thatdistrIct work Is going ahead steadily ona number of properties and the showIngst1at are being uncovered and tJpvelope-daI Quite satisfactory says the Ely Expositor

rhe Frederick tunnel owned by J FBrim and Uncle Jesse Knight Is nowIn 453 feet and It Is believed to be near-Ing ore bodies This tunnel was drIven

y the Stoptoe Valley Smelting and lIn-Ing company and was destined to piercethe hIgh hue cliffs back of the smelterPlant to afford a channel for the watersot Duck creok and deliver them to thesmelter plant

It was orIginally planned to drive thetunnel entirely through the mountain

crk being carried on from each sidelll> tunnel was driven 400 feet and wasthen abandoned by the smelter manage-ment who turned It over to the ownersof tIp mining claims through which Itwas bEing driven at no cost to them Theonly stipulation made It Is understoodwas that the tunnel should be continuedn a straight line and that the vropor

lions be maintained throughout Its entirelength

Gains Depth RapidlySince taking the tunnel from the smel-

ter peopll the owners of the propertyhave driven It fifty feet making It 4Ofeet In length The tunnel gains one footof depth with every foot of length Itis equipped with a track and car and withan automatic ventilator

The ground until this time has beenxeedlngly hard to work and the minersl1ave been unable to gain more than onefoot for each shift It Is now assuminga different character the lime breakingIn larger blocks and more deEply with

COPPER INDUSTRY

Will Be at Head of CopperConsolidation Is Predic

tion in BOston

Boston Nov 21In all that Is talcIng place among the copper InterestslookIng to the formulation of planswhereby the price of the metal maybe Improved and reckless and unprofit-able competition among selling Interests eliminated the name of John DRyan is most frequently heard Thereare few bigger menas Wall streetreckons blgn089ln the copper business today and those who Inow himbest state that his big achievementsare yet to be recorded

His frIends point out that a certaInprophetic significance attaches to theInitials J D n and that theachievements of John D RockefellerIn oil may he partially duplicated atleast by John D Ryan In copper

It cannot be denied that abundantsuccess has follcwed almost every enterprIse with which Mr Ryans namehas been Identified Take for Instance International Smelting Thatcompany was organized only a yearago and the stock placed among alimited few at 100 per share TodayIt Is 160 bid and that prIce would bepaid by one party for 000 sharesBrokers who are seeking offerIngs ofthe stock tell us that they can findonly twenty shares offered and the of-fering price is 190 Mr Ryan hasprivately declared the stock to beworth 200 a share today it is earnIng15 per cent and his Immediate asso-cIates have not a share to sell

Then there Is the National Copperbank That Institution was organizedabout two years ago by Mr Ryan andhis copper associates the stock beingput on the market at 205 a shareThe Institution Is nosv to amalgamateWith the Mechanics bank of New Yorkthe consolidated hank to have depositsof 60000000 National Copper bankstock can be sold today for 5320 andthe holder ot 100 shares has the Wivliege of subscribing for fifty sharesot the new bank at 2OO a share

Would Save MillionsMr Han has been chosen to suc-

ceed Henry II Rogers as the presidentof the Amalgamated Copper companyand he Is today working day and nightto devIse perfect and carry Into execution some safe and sane plan Whichwill save millions to the producers ofcopper and conserve the resources orthis raw materIal so essential too mod-ern civilization

When the last chapter concernIng allthat Is now taking place In Importantcopper cIrcles In New York Is writtenIt wIll be found that the Inspiration ofwhatever scheme Is finally adopted hadits beginnings In the efforts of MrRyan to remedy present copditionsand It a new copper consolidation Isformed it Is safe to predict that MrRyan will be Its executive head

Eureka Nov 21SuperIntendent R ABrown or the Centennial Eureka mine Informs the Eureka Reporter that the 3000foot tunnel which Is to tap the shaftof that mitie at n depth of about 500 feetwill be completed next April Alreadyover 000 feet ot tunnel work has beenfInished With the completion or this bigtunnel some Important changes will takeplace at the Centennial Eureka mine Aspreviously stated the tunnel will furnishan outlet for the heavy tonnage of orewhich the mine is shipping Water hav-ing been encountered the Centennial Eureka finds It necessary to put In a largepumping plant and the tunnel will cutoff 500 feet of the distance that the pumpswill be called upon to lIft the water Ingetting It to the surface

Time company will purchase and Installa bIg power plant for the operation ofpumps compressor and cars which willbe used In the tunnel and this powerplant will be located upon the groundwhich the company has recently purchased near the entrance to the big tunnel The carpenter shop and perhaps theoffice and other buildings will be movedfrom the mIne and rebuilt at the mouthof the tunnel It Is estimated that opcrating through the tunnel doing awaywith the tramway and cutting off the expease hauling timber etc to the minewill result in a saving of about 1000each year

Dragon Ships Iron OreThe Dragon Iron mine at Silver City

has again commenced shipping iron oreto the United States smelter The firstlot of ore to be shIpped under the contract which was recently signed went outthe early part of the week and It is gen-erally understood that shipments will besent out regularly from the mine in thefuture although ilanager L E Riter-Is unable to state just what amount otore the smelting company will be ableto use at this time With the Dragon I

company It is just a question of howmuch Iron ore the smelter can handleas the amine la able to ship almost anyamount tIme deposits of Iron having beenopened up In such a manner that a very-heavy tonnage can be sent out for anIndefinite period

During the past week the Dragon sentout fifteen carloads or ore and the output for next week will no doubt be larger

B H Bullock manager of the Bullockmine was In the distrIct on Monday andTuesday accompanied by hIs brother Jo-seph Bullock aniT William Price both otProvo examining the new strike at theBullock minI Mr Price said that theentire face of the drift was In splendidore lie stretched a tape over the faceof the drift and said that the vein of oremeasured 4 feet 6 Inches across and asnear he could determine the drift Is cutting through the top of the ore whichwill undoubtedly widen out with depth

About a carload of this ore has beentaken out since the strike was made andManager Bullock Is ot the opinion thatthe ore will run high In silver with fallvalues In copper The ore was encountered while a drift was being run towardthe north on what is known as the Butlock veIn

known as the lowcost protlucer par-ticularly Utah Copper and Nevada Consolidated The latter recently absorbedthe CumberlandEly

According to one Interest the cost ofproducing copper by the combinationwould not exceed 9 cents a pound Manyot the ColeRyan properties can producecopper In the neighborhood of J centsa pound and the Boston Montanascost does not exceed that figure by awIde margin As a matter of fact thelatter company recently produced themetal as low as S cents a pound

To Reduce Operating CostsDevelopment work at the Amalgamated

The plan Involves the taking over of theInternational Smelting and Refining cornpany as well as the United Metals SellIng company The International Smelt-ing and RefIning company Owns thelargest refinery of its kind In the worldand refines close to 330000000 pounds otcopper a year

The American Smelting and Refiningcompany last year handled approximately190009000 pounds uf copper and as a re-sult ot the Increased production of theNevada Consolidated Utah Copper Cumbprlnnd Ely and otjter mines It will handip a much larger amount in the currentyear
