BETTER THAN 1900
Daily Lake Ore Movement Looms
Up as Never Before.
OLD RECORDS TO BE ECLIPSED
llu»U On, In Wheat bartering—A
(Splendid Showing Made by
ii*v the Pioneer Mine*
■peclal to The Journal
Ixiluth, Minn., Sept. 13.—< Lake ore ship
ments are Just about equal to those for
the same period a year ago, and the daily
movement is largely ahead of the corre
sponding period in 1900, The movement
out of Lake Superior alone in August,
1901, was 2,920,000 gross was; in August,
1900, It was 2,285.000 tons. The big ship
pers are still busy chartering loose ton
nage, getting themselves out of the way
for the expected grain movement and
clearing the deck, as It were. Just now
the most interesting phase of the lake
situation Is the Duluth wheat charter
ing. This is going on at the rate of from
600.000 to double as many bushels daily,
arwj there are now probably 15,000,000
bushels chartered for fall delivery. Wheat
is coming Into Duluth at the rate of from
600 to 1,000 carloads daily, and is increas
ing. Most of this vast volume will be
sant down the lakes this falL
Minnesota mines shipped In August
1.950,000 tons, nearly half of it over the
Duhith & Iron Range road, the Gogebic
range, 500,000 tons; Marquette, 420,000, and
Escanaba, 700,000 tons.
As Bhowing what may be done by con
tinuous work, skilful planning and care
ful management and first-class equip
ment, the record of the Pioneer mill for
August Is a stunner. Out of its one shaft
62,680 gross tons were hoisted in the
month, twenty hours to a day. The shaft
has two ships running in balance. Pioneer
"will probably hoist this year 650,000 tons,
and when its new Btee.l shaft Is completed
*ill be in & position to equal the largest
underground mines.
An exploration shaft at the West Lud
lngton mine, Menominee range, has been
sunk 800 feet, and ls to go twice as deep
if necessary. On the way down explora
torn work will be carried along. It is
likely to be the most thorough explora
tion ever given for ore. Over $500,000 has
been spent by various persons in a search
i r the Ltudlngton ore on this property,
•but none, nor all together, have carried
forward such careful ■work as is in prog
ress now.
A heavier output than expected will be
made at the Regent mines, Negaunee, and
the management is looking for more men.
t'ambria and Lillle mines of the Repub
lic Iron & Steel Co., are not looking well,
and the company must transfer more and
more of its business to the Mesaba range.
The Chicago & North-Western road has
appointed John D. Campbell of Negaunee
general agent for its Iron ore traffic in
Michigan and Wisconsin, with headquar
ters at Chicago. The North-Western
handles more iron ore than any road in
the world and certainly needs a special
superintendence. Mr. Campbell's qualifi
cations are of the highest order.
MOKTAXA COPPER
Helena Mining Men May Develop a
Camp Second, to Butte's.
Special to The Journal.
Helena, Mont., Sept. 13.—The Eva May
shaft in the Cataract district is now down
OU> feet and has demonstrated what was
always believed to 'be a fact, that per
manent copper ore bodies would be found
•with d«pth in this district. There has been
more or less copper ore in all of the
claims in the Cataract district, even in
the upper levels, but the Eva May Is the
first one to demonstrate that permanent
copper ore bodies exißted at the lower
levels. Much Butte capital is n»T going
into this district. In other sections of
the state and especially in the immediate
vicinity of Helena, several mining syndi
cates, companies and Individuals are de
veloping copper ledges without any ex
pectation of finding ore until the shafts
are sunk to a great depth. The Clark and
Heinze shafts in the suburb* of Helena
are an illustration.
The East (Paclflo mine at "Winston, bo
famous for the rich strikes, reports an
other one In the winze sunk from the
fourth level of the mine at a depth of 934
feet from the surface. Two carloads of
ore have been shipped from the west drift
at the bottom of this wince that netted
at the smeller $2,999.32.
It Ls reported that a bed of sand asphal
tum, valuable for street paving purpose
and essaying from 14 to 24 per cent
asphaltum, has been discovered five miles
from the Northern Pacific railroad in
eastern Montana.
The development in the Greenhorn cop
per district ls creating much interest
among mining men of the capital. The
Punches property ie looking better than
ever, and there seems to be ore in every
direction. R. A, Bell, who purchased a
group of claims In the new district, has
bought a complete outfit of supplies and
tools, and will start work at one of his
claims. Other claims in the same district
are being developed, and it looks as if a
copper district second only to Butte will
be the result.
C. W. Fleming Is chipping fifteen car
loads of high-grade ore a week from the
Bell mine to the smelter at Helena. The
Bell is looking better than ever. The
total olean-up of the old Elkhorn mill
amounted to $4^500, just one-half of the
price paid by the Longmaids for the prop
erty. The valuea were in gold and silver
and in quicksilver about the old mill.
TO THE FRONT AGAIX
X>e«erted Penokce Iron Range May
Yet Make Good.
Special to The Journal.
Ashland. Wis., Sept. IS.—A recent dis
covery of Iron ore on the long- ago desert
ed Penokee iron range which stretches
along (from Hurley, past Mellen and Min
eral Lake and beyond White River in
Ashland county, has caused a flurry among
people generally and companies are being
formed for the purpose of developing cer
tain points on the range where it Is sup
posed ore in huge quantities is embedded.
'About a month, since a miner named
Quest, -who resides at Hurley and- who has
been "working cm the range all summer
■with machinery, made a find of ore which
is so promising that hundreds of Ash
landers hare visited the scene and are now
preparing for the formation of stock com
panies. One company was formed this
"week of Ashland county citizens, most of
■whom reside at Mellen and points down
the Central rail-way and a capital of
115.000 was raised in cash, for the develop
ment of the property where Guest made
his discovery. The company has filed its
articles and will be known as the Guest
[Mining company. .
Years ago the Penokee range was lauded
for its wealth of ore, and certain people,
financially unable to do much prospecting,
went to th« range with a view to develop
ing mines. . Becoming disheartened most
of them gave up the enterprise, conclud- j
Ing that the property was worthless from
a mineral standpoint. About this time !
the boom days "were on at Iron-wood and
Hurley, the GogeJbia range centers, and the
Peuoke© range wae left deserted.
CONGLOMERATE XX NATIONAL,
Boom In Copper Gives Xe\r Life to
Old " Properties.
Special to The Journal. „;--:
Calumet, Mich., Sep.t 13.— continued
high price of copper will no doubt have a
marked effect on the Lake Superior cop
per district during the next few years
through, the exploration of virgin territory
and tb« development of the old. : Interest
is manifested in mines long idle and this
, Call will see the rehabilitation of several
propertlw. The old Conglomerate in
K&wemaam ; county «wi!l be • worked at an
early ; data. Reports have been current
tie pMt • few "weeks that this. mine will
soon pass into the control of people prom*.
inent in the affairs of the United States
Steel company, who were Instrumental in
the floatation oX the Immensely popular
Calumet & Ariaona. The Conglomerate
property has "been worked at various times
in the past and probably $3,000,000 lg a
fair estimate of the total amount ex
pended. The property consists of about
21,000 acres, 4,000 of which are on the min
eral range. The company owns a large
quantity of timber, several dwellings, and
a mine equipment valued at more than
$600,000. In the event of mining being re
sumed work will t>© confined to the amg
daloid lodes.
Another property reported as likely to
be reopened soon is the National, in Onto
nagon county, adjoining the Michigan
mine. The National is controlled by D. L.
Demmon of Boston. It Is one of the old
est mines in this district, having been or
ganized in 1848, but has been idle since
1893.
Minnesota capitalists who recently se
cured options on land about lour miles
from the Wlnona mine, have also obtained
an option on 820 acres adjoining the first
tract. A. force of men is expected at
an early date who will thoroughly explore
the lands. Thomae Buzzo of Laurlum will
be one of the party. Camps will be es
tablished and work started as soon as the
men arrive. They will go over the ground
thoroughly in the hope of finding the Bal
tic lode.
The Manhattan property, located In Ke
weenaw county, has heen sold to Calumet
and Hancock men. The Arcadian Is ex
tending a crosscut from one of its shafts
on the Mesnard epldote to Intersect the
Pewabic lode. This is the richest amyg
daloid lode in the lake district and com
panies working on it have paid nearly
$16,000,000 in dividends.
SHIPPED IX CHIDE STATE
Hew Departure in Mining Methods
in the Coenr u"Alene«.
Special to The Journal.
Wallace, Idaho, Sept. 13.—The Etruscan
Gold Mining company filed articles of in
corporation with the county recorder last
week, and has already commenced work
on two claims which it has bonded near
Murray. The work is of a nature new to
that district, and may result in c decided
change in mining methods In the gold belt.
The first proposition is to take out sixty
tons of ore and ship it to Butte for smelt
ing in its crude state, in order to find
exactly what it will yield under such con
ditions. Heretofore all the gold ore'
mined in the Coeur d'Alenes has either
been worked for the free gold it carried !
or else concentrators attached to the |
mills and the concentrates shipped for i
smelting. There are few properties there j
on which analytical assays have ever been j
made, or even mill tests other than those j
afforded by the crude milling devices in
vogue in the camp.
The Golden Chest has milled more ore |
than any other three properties there,
and it is admitted that for years it was
well satisfied when it saved one-half of
the value as shown by assay. Now all its
tailings are being run over Wilfley tables,
and the saving is presumably much closer,
although with increased depth the ore
has become baser and the free milling
contents are much smaller.
From Murray to Wallace the ore must
be hauled by wagons, twenty miles over
two ranges of mountains, involving a cost
of $10 a ton in addition to the regular
railroad freight and smelter charges, so
it is not likely the experiment will pay
except by the knowledge it will give, but
if it is shown that the ore will pay for
smelting in its crude state u»der favora
ble conditions better than by concentra- \
tion, it may result either in the erection
of a smo.ll smelter on the ground or in
the building of a railroad from Wallace to
Murray In order to reach the gold mines.
MARBLE AND MICA
Something in the Hill* Beside Gold-
Detroit Company at Work.
Special to The Journal.
Deadwood, S. D., Sept. 13.—The Black
Hills Porcelain Clay and Marble com
pany of Detroit, Mich., has penetrated a I
fine ledge of marble six miles northeast I
of Custer, with a diamond drill. The I
ledge outcrops at that point and several |
thousand dollars have been expended in
opening it up. The drill was sunk sev
eral hundred feet from the workings and
it penetrated thirty feet of the finest !
kind of marble. The company Is work- j
ing many men in Custer county, having
three separate forces, one at the marble,
another at the mica mine and the third at
the lithograph stone quarry. The com
pany has just shipped $8,000 worth of mica
and has eight car loads, valued at $40,000,
ready for shipment.
Work was commenced this week on the I
sixty-ton cyanide plant in the Yellow j
Creek mining district, by the Adler Creek j
Mining company. Ther are large shoots
of quartzite ore, which run about $8 a ton
gold. It is one of the best kinds of cy
aniding in the Hills.
Machinery has commenced to arrive at
Ragged Top for the 100-ton cyanide plant
that is being erected by the Deadwood-
Standerd company, in which Ed Hanschka
of this city and W. O. Morrison and
brother, of Colorado City are interested.
The company owns ground that carries an
extension of the large shoot of lime ore
that is outputting 225 tons a day for the
Spearfish company. Some $50,000 will be
expended In the erection of the mill.
The University Mining company expects
to encounter ore in a few days in a shaft
that is being sunk on Spring creek, nine
miles northwest of Custer. A ledge of ore
was followed down eighty feet on an in
cline, and a shaft is now being sunk to
strike it at a depth of about 100 feet. A
complete steam hoisting plant has been
installed and a night shift was put on
this week. The stock at this company is
held for the most part in the eastern part
of South Dakota. University students or
ganized the company. Lium'ber is on the
ground for a stamp mill which will be
erected just as soon as the ore is struck
again. The assays run from $7 to $66 a
ton gold.
MIXES WITH SULPHUR
Many Inquiries at Rat Portage-
What Old Prospectors Say.
Special to The Journal.
Rat Portage, Ont., Sept. 13.—Inquiries
are being made for mines that will yield
sulphur. Several prospectors say there
are many veins in which sulphur is found
in combination with iron and copper, but
it remains to be proven whether it will
pay for the extraction. It is stated that
the same ore carries gold in sufficient
quantity to pay the expenses of mining
and treatment and that the sulphur will
be all profit.
A. H. Smith has made a deal with a syn
dicate to open up a mining property in
this vicinity which he located some time
ago. A contract is being made for sink
ing a shaft.
It is reported that the owners of the
Black Sturgeon mine will resume work on
their property, having obtained a verdict
in a lawsuit which has been pending for
over three years.
Some remarkably fine mica specimens
have been brought to Rat Portage, and
further investigations of the quality and
quantity are being made.
TO CtT THE DOAJfE VEIN
Rambler Mining- Company of Grand
Encampment Hard at Work.
Special to The Journal.
Grand Encampment, Wyo., Sept. 13. —
Over 100 feet of driving has been done
on the tunnel which was started less than
six weeks ago by the Rambler Mining
company on its group adjoining the Doane
mine. Only one shift has been employed.
The rock is gradually hardening end some
little water has followed the cutting of
several stringers, so that the manage
ment is not confident that it can maintain
the rate of progress. One hundred and
fifty feet- must be attained before the
main lead of the Rambler group is tapped.
The Doane mine was recently sold to Chi
cago men for $2,000,000.
Copper ore In the Doane In car load
lots shipped to mnelter gives from 36 per
cent to 50 per cent copper. The Rambler
Mining company is running its tunnel to
cut the Doane vein.

Miners of the Rampart Dlntrict,
Alaska, Greatly Enconraged.
Special to The Journal.
Tacoma, Wash., Sept. 18. —The steamer
Susie, which has arrived from the lower
Yukon, brought the news that the new
strike on Glen gulch, in the Rampart dis
trict, is holding up its big record. As the
prospecting continues more extra fine
propositions are struck, and the miners of
the district are greatly encouraged. The
strike is the best ever made in that part
of the Yukon.

7,000-MILEJOSKAN TRIP
Special Treasury Agent Report* on
the Salmon Pack:.
Special to The Journal.
Tacoma, Wash., Sept. 13.—Colonel How
ard M. Kutchim, special treasury agent,
has just returned from a 7,000 mile reve
nue cutter trip to out of the way Alaskan
waters. He has been gone since May 14
and was the only passenger on the cut
ter. He resorts as follows:
The aggregate pack of the Alaska can
neries will exceed that of last year—the
number of cases put up reaching 1,750,000.
This increase is due to the new canneries.
The total pack of the old plants will not
equal last season's. Additional equip
ment, new machinery and new plants are
responsible for the growth of the in
dustry in the north.
In Bering sea the addition of eight new
canneries will increase the pack there by at
least 100,000 cases. Some of the old concerns,
however, show a marked decline. The pack
in southern Alaska will be the largest in
the history pf that country. It is composed
almost entirely of humpbacks, or, as they
are called, the pir.k salmon. The sockeye
run is largely fished out, and, in fact, is
nearly exhausted. This exhaustion is caused
by the excessive fishing which has been in
progress for years. Ariflcial propagation Is
the only escape from the inevitable result of
over-fishing.
Permanent muscular strength cannot
exist where there is not blood strength.
Young men giving attention to muscular
development should bear this in mind.
Hood's Sarsaparilla gives blood strength
and builds up the whole system.
San Francitco and Return $59.
FY>r the Episcopal convention at San
Francisco Oct. 2, the Soo Line will sell
round trip tickes at $59, going via Soo-
Paciflc and return via southern routes.
