TbLe Salt liAitfi Trtbiike: Friday MoinsnnsrG, MAiica 4, 19t. If ( MINE AND PROSPECT ; FURNACE AND MILL I SILVER KING ANO THE FEDERAL LEAD Indications That an Ultimatum "Will Be Reached at an Early Day in New York. A Tribune dispatch from Washington, D. C, tclllnp of the sudden departure of President David Keith of the Silver KIn& Mining company for Now York J City and Eastern interest in the mes 1 sago that recalled him at an hour when he was preparing to flag a train for Florida, has rekindled Interest locally In the story that the Federal Lead company has decided that It can't get along without the matchless holdings of that sovereign of Park City at its belt. A message from the East during the day says the report that President Keith has returned to Now York for a llnal meeting with representatives of the big lead company, Is quite freely dlscuised thero and that while the prin cipals refuse positively to have the sub ject given publicity, their negotiations, if successful, will be followed by the biggest transactions ever made in the mines of Utah. i Hon. W. S. IVIcCornick, treasurer of the Silver King, and custodian for the company of a surplus that runs to de lirious heights, to whom the dispatch ivas shown, said that while he had re ceived nothing recent from the com pany's president, the message, in his opinion, could have reference to noth ing less than negotiations for the King, An examination of the bbnanza. mado by W. Clayton Miller and Charles Hus sey, representing tho lead company, had been with most favorable results , nnd with that the principals were left to agree upon a price. If he recalled , It correctly, pleaded the trcasur6r of tho t company, the figure around which thoy were sparring was $75 n share, or Upon a basis of 500,000 for the whole. In t the deal the purchasers have obligated the King's representatives to deliver the control, at least, while on tho other hand the Federal Lead company has obligated itself to accept any nnd all additional offerings at these figures. "What the status of negotiations nt this tlmo Is Treasurer McCornlck says he has no knowledge whatever, although y ho Is prepared to believe that the lead 1 company Is urging an ultimatum before the departure of President Keith for the South. ) II AN INSTRUCTIVE LESSON ON ORES FROM NEVADA i The mineral exhibit from Good Springs and Sanday, along the pathway of the San Pedro railway, which ap peared in tho sliow windows of J. P. Gardner yesterday and for which the collection was brought up from the camps by V". H. "Wllron, representing the Frederick "Warde Mining company, afforded a most instructive lesson on U the ores with which the region Is en- dowed, while demonstrating the re sources along tho line of "the Salt Lake route." Silver and lead, copper and gold, as they occur In the camps, are each present In great abundance, and while tho camps, remote from trans portation, have not been very produc tive, it is simply, said Mr. "Wilson, that the miner declined to make the sacri fices incurred by the long haul to a smelter. It is In the same region that the Monarch lead mines, the value of r which was Axed by Allan G. Campbell, I in his "last will and testament," nt I; 5200,000, Is located, and that promise to : pass Into new hands under an option , some time ago awarded by the CBtrite. From the Keystone is exhibited ores that show from 5140 to $12,000 gold per ton, the mill on that proposition having been hung up because of Its inefficiency, ) while the big concentrator at Good Springe, which Teas sold to a customer from "Washington, It to be rehabilitated and put In commission during the year. The samples of ore from tho Frederick "Warde group speak most persuasively for themselves, the samples showing high percentages in lead, with fine val ues in silver and' some gold, whllo the iron which occurs In the locality af ford evidences of a smelter site, of L which somo one must ultimately avail p himself. Mr. "Wilson Is moat enthusias tic over tho region, to which he will re turn In a short time to dispatch, work on the "Warde group. There are reasons to believe that smelter furnaces will be located at Good Springs before the ex I . plratlon of another year. I RICH COPPER ORES IN THE ADLAIDE GROUP ' Not a Hltlo exultant over latest dovcl ' opraento In tho properties of tho Glasgow and Western Exploration company, Otto , Stalmann, Its general manager, camo In from tho Nevada camps yesterday fo for ward tho result of his observations across tho wator. At tho Adlalde group out of Golconda, Manager Stalmann reporla tho '. appearance of ores that havo boon fol lowed on their strike for over 103 feet, which show nn average of 12.5 per cent ' copper, with 9 ounces silver and JL50 gold per ton The extent of this has not yet been determined, said Mr. Stalmann, but the splendid quality of tho oro provides a most desirable leavening. At Copper can- yort and Cherry creek tho blocking out of : wealth also goes forward ateadily, whllo a most ngrccablo premonition of resump tion at the company's smelter in Gol , conda, work on Its. electrical equipment has been begun and will bo ruatied for ward to tho earliest posslblo completion. I With plenty of water and Superintendent Fcrron adding hourly to tho oro bodies, tho season opens as the- most assuring in , tho history of tho undertaking. H THE STEADY OUTPUT AT THE DALY WEST H' Superintendent John A. Klrby, who H camo down from tho Daly West of Park H City ycflterday to confer with Assistant H Manager Ernest Bamberger on tho cvo at H tho lattcr'3 departure for Oregon, reports H an avorago of 400 tons of ore coming; dally H from tho bonanza, of which volume 150 H tons comcn direct to the valley furnaces, H tho remainder passing into tho bins of tho B concentrator. At camp there aro reports H of more favorable conditions at tho B Judge, says Mr. Klrby, while in tho sya- H tern of fissures at the Little Bell somo ore Is occurring at Intervals. Tho Inhabitants of tho camp aro relying on ftn active Ben son Over there. THE DAY'S TRADING ON THE MINING EXCHANGE Tho day's business on tho mining ex chango was confined to 13,535 shaxcji of stock, that brought $3778.12, tho signifi cant of tho painful exhibit not so much to tho dlecrodlt of tho Bhopkcopfcr and his wares, perhaps, as to tho customer And his credit, for it is qulto generally rec6g nlzod that "anothor" bottom has boon reached. The trading aC tho opening ses sion Was conflhed to a slnplo lot of Undo Sam, for which J&) was rattled on tho counter. That was all. Thoro might havo been more actlvo trading had not the shopkeeper reserved "tho right to reject any and ail bldrt," and that orders wore not more freely executed la iho first sub stantial Information, maybe, that "the" bottom on which the Investor has been watting hosr been readied. Along these lines Con, Morcur Was marked up to 63 c-nts, whllo tho amount of Daly west to bo had around W4.20 Wan limited. A bid of J4.50 for Daiy-Judgo was contemptuously rejected, with tho salesmen roftislnrr to put a price on It olthor In thp pit or on the open board, whllo but m Yonkoo Con. was to be coaxed out at 4-IV1 conts. Grand Central reappeared ns nn offering at I3.C0, but only that certain Interests appear to bo making clandcstlno effort to lnqreaso their holdings, whllo ltd nolghbor. LoWdr Mammoth, held out for S1.J0, as 95 cents was shaken vainly under Its nose. Indeed, It was tho buyer by whom tho weakness was betrayed this tlmo, and with tho shop keepers adhering to the policy which was yesterday outlined, tho market cannot but Improve.

At Sait Francisco Mr. Lynch met a num bcr of Salt Lakers, drank freely of tho sunslilho alOhg the coant and returns visi bly Improved by tho outing SALT LAKE TALENT VIEWING GOLOFIELD Special to The Tribune GOLDFIELD, Nov., March 3. A dis tinguished party of Salt Lake mining men and capitalists aro In Goldllold and aro maklns a careful and comploto examina tion of Its mineral tesources. Tho party consists of J. R. Walker. Jr.. J. B. Thomp son, Chnrlee E. Hudson, Frank B. Cook. V. P. Str&nge and Arthur Hudson. Tho party had rend considerably of Gold lleld's riches In Tho Trlbuno nnd while be lieving thoy were coming to a good camp, thoy were not prepared to find things let ter than had been stated In tho press re ports. For Instance, tho writer haB usu ally put It that tho best ore wont "over $S0O per ton." Tho roturns from tho last carload were received this week and show that tho entire car wont over $20 to tho ton. Whllo those Salt Lake gentlemen might think It necessary to discount fig ures In press reports to allow lor over enthusiasm, they know that thero Is no need of doing so with smelter returns. J. B. Thompson, who is well known to tho mining fraternity of the West, said ho was very willing to bo quoted as being enthusiastic over the present showing at Goldlleld and Its promise for the future Said ho: "A mining 31 an of exporlonco Is usually skeptical of new mining camps, especially If thero Is anything In the na ture of a boom on. Things seldom come up to his expectations unless many dis appointments havo taught him to keep his expectations within about a quarter of . ii,V,at l,n hArH n.if ItArn tvn (r,A things better than we believed. Not only has thero been wonderful results from tho development to date, but the mineral belt Is very extensive and the surface showing warrants tin belief that many good mines will bo opened up." A great deal of pleasure is expressed In camp over the fact that Senator Kearhs and David Keith of Salt Lake have taken hold here. Thoy havo bonded, for ??0.000, a group of four claims on Columbia moun tain, nnd from tho surface showing; It Is believed they will make a mine. Tho GOldflcld-Vlndlcator compnny, which was recently organized by William II. Tlbbals of Salt Lake, has put men to work on their property. This group HoS between the Combination and Dlnmondtleld, being about ono mile west of tho properties of Keono. McMahon and Fletcher, and Hanoy and Clark, which havo a flno showing. A gOod strong ledgo goes through tho ground of the Goldfleld-VIndlcator com pany, and as good values have been ob tained from the surface cropplng9, they havo reasonable basis for the belief that development will soon open a pny mine. On the Black Butte claims, a llttlo over a mile east of the Vindicator, Frank Ish believes ho has a mountain of oro. One ot tho ledges on these claims Is 40 to 50 feet wide, and whllo tho rock did not look very promising assays show that It goes from $13 to $107 per ton. Mr. Ish has de tcrmlncd to glvo It a thorough prospecting and soon find out Just how big Is his llnd BOn PCarlman, ono of tho pioneers ot Nevada, has taken a bond on a group of four claims from "DIamondfleld Jock" Davis and associates. Tills group adjoins the Red Butte, which Is under bond to T. L. Oddlo and associates. Tho engine and hoist have been Installed on (ho Combination and are now In work ing order. This will enable the operators to materially Increase tho production from this bonanza. That the recent ship ment which went $520 to the ton will not be tho banner one from tho Co-nblnatlon atoms probable from the assays taken this week from the shaft. An avorago of a number of assays showed values of $lS0O per ton. How much of this ore thoro Is has not been determined, but It is behoved thero is quite a good body of It. Harry Ramsey, who owned ono-half tho Combination at tho time It was bonded and who has very cxtunslvo Interests In the district, has Just returned from a two months' visit In California. Mr. Rnmuoy Is greatly pleased over tho wonderful showing made since he left, and though ho lot the Combination go for a song, his other holdings here opens him to the sus picion of soon becoming a millionaire. Ho says that Goldfleld is all tho talk In Cali fornia and If one-half the peoplo, who havo said thOy would. Come hero, there will bo The lease of Kendall, Jones and Patrick on the January is dividing honors with tho Combination in the ostlmatlon Of vis itors to Goldfleld, The big pile of mill oro on the dump and tho rich oro in tho sacks, where a month ago nothing but sage brush and sand could be seen, elicits many expressions of surprise from thoso who see It for tho first time. The 50 tons of oro which wero shipped from this leaso during tho week will go better than $250 per ton. T. D. Oddlo of tho Tonopah Mining com pany has made the llrst payment on a bond of $100,000 to Dr. White Wolf and as sociates for a group of eight claims close to tho Combination and Janunr3 Ho has put eighteen men to work and is sinking on the Whlto Rock claim, where ho ex pects to get tho extension of tho rich ledge which Is being worked on tho Jan uary. Tho Goldfleld Townslto company Is to bo incorporated with Harry Ramsey, president; Louis S. FlnnoKan, secretary and townsltfe agent, and Elmor J. Chuto. vice-prosldent and treasurer.

ANNIE LAURIE'S NEW GOLD LEDGE Disclosuro in Bonanza That Promises o Double tho Vnlufc of its Assots. Tho management of the Annie LauHe mines at Gold Mountain Is now em ployed in tho development ot a newly discovered ledgo running parallel with tho original which promises (o double the value of Its assets, bald Wlllard F. Snyder on his reappearance at the of flcea of the Western Exploration com pany yesterday morning', and with these assurances from expert sources the own ers tire not to be reproached for termi nating all negotiations with at least two formidable syndicates that have been yseklng the properties. Certainly Mr. Snyder has philosophically resigned himself to the order withdrawing the bo nanza from the market, for, as a share holder, ho realizes that he would havo been required to have shared tho sac rifice had tho discovery of a. new chan nel of wealth as liberally Indorsed as tho original been delayed until after a sale had been consummated. The new ledge, said Mr. SnydOr, who took the Annie to the company by which it is now owned, before anything like Its present pro portions were attained, wan broken Into through a cross-out on the 300-foot level, this avenue pacing through a stratum of country rock that haa long Obscured' It. Since then the management has udded to the pile of wealth, as work has advanced In the now ledge, and thero Is at this time nothing to Indicate other than that It will be made as productlvo as that upon which tho conrpany Is now drawing for 50-cont dividends each month. While orders for a smelter with which the Exploration company's Balaklala group of mines In Shasta county, Cali fornia, have not been placed, the owners are simply waiting on a verification of a report recently forwai-tled t6 the Bast. On this thero is no uneasiness, however, nnd it Is Very likely that the Order for furnaces will be placed before the year la much Older. While conditions generally In the East, said Mr. Snyder, have felt the effect of a badly demoralized market for securities-, ho found the usual number ready to embrace- golden opportunities and re turns much pleased with the esteem In which Utah 19 held In New York, Bos ton, Chicago and other localities. THE H0NERINE MILL IN ACTIVE COMMISSION The active crushing and1 concentrating of ores began at tho Honerlne's now mill at Buhl. Out of Stockton, yester day morning, the charge to be gradually Increased until a maximum approach ing 500 tons daily Is- attained. In this achievement those who several years ago began the reclamation at the Hon erlno have passed anothor milestone, nnd while through the long tunnel now approaching the 6000-foot station they are ploughing their way to tho last. With which to supply the plant the company has a vast tonnage of ore, containing lead and silver, with pome gold, blocked' out, and with the revenues from this source pouring Into the treas ury the shareholders may be congratu lated that the Honorlne will In future provide means for ite own payrolls. The production of first-class ore to go direct to the furnaces will not begin, of course, until the tunnel has been advanced to a connection with the main ore-bearing channels, the delivery ot ores to the mill meantime to bo by wagon. Super intendent Rnddatz telephones that the mill has begun Its .-rf-ork most satisfac torily and that the tables are taking to their work moet eagerly. STUDYING THE METHODS OF WESTERN SMELTING James B. Hcrrcshoff of tho Nichols Chemical company, whoso furnaces at Laurel Hill. Now York, aro among tho most prominent In tho country, leaves for the East toilay after studying methods and dovlccs employed nt the valley smel ters, through which he has been shown by Harris K. Masters With the methodB hero and results achieved, tho visitor haa been most favorably Impressed, tho economic features Of smelting In Utah equaling that of any on earth. Mr. Her reshoff, In hid pilgrimage, has visited nearly all tho smelter centers of tho West and South, and leaves feeling that he haa been Immeasurably Instructed. OLD MAMMOTH OUT FOR A NEW CONTRACT For the output of the Mammoth com pany's TIntIc properties, which is fixed at 100 tons a day for a year at least, the management is calling on the local smelters for a bid that will Justify It In making a contract. Tho ability of tho mine to supply the furnaces with this volume of ore for a year at least will be a most agreeable revelation to those; who have been uhdf the Impres sion that Its resources had been perma nently Impoverished. Not so with Man ager McIntyTe, however, who has fol lowed tho property through nlrws of its lives and who Is ready to wager a por- Hon of his allotted years that there are as many more of productiveness. Each of the smelters have promised him a bid and a contract will probably be awarded the present week. NEW WEALTH OF THE JOHNNY MINES Special to The Tribune MODENA, March 3. B. C. McDon ald, top foreman of tho Johnny mine at State-line, has left for Salt Lake City on a two weeks' vacation owing to a severe cold. Ho roports that the John ny mill will bo In operation within a few days nnd that tho ore bodies ex posed by the recent strike aro opening up largely as development progresses, which1 would make It appear that the Johnny is destined to become a verita ble bonanza, ospoclally when It is Con sidered that fifty feet of ore- hart now bcCcn crossed up from the 300-foot level, ranging from $37 to over $360 per ton. R. W. Brady of Salt 'Lako City passed through hero Tuesday on his return from his recently acquired holding near Ploche. He wns accompanied by a seventy-five pound specimen of Galena copper ore which should prove a reve lation to tho mining talen of Salt Lako City. Mr, Brady la proud of the fact that he mined this particular piece him self from a solid vein four feet In width and therefore knows thnt It was not placed thero by ncoldont or design. He also had a sack of very high grade sc leoted silver and lead speclmons from the same properties. It fs confidently asserted nnd believed that th6 Wclland claims, as the property Is named, ore on the famous Ely and Raymond vein, which in former years was the produc er of millions, that spread the famo of PlOcho to the uttermost corners of the globo. Judge J. W. Burton hn3 remained on tho grdbnd and will return t6 Salt Lako city In a fow days with the consignment of speclmons No. 2. On Sunday last about fifty citizens of Ploche entered tho shiitt of the above mentioned property and no find In re cent years has so excited tho residents of that place as have the disclosures of ore made In the thlrty-olght-fOOt shaft on tl)ls property. Shipments will begin within a few days, nafd Mr. Brady. SCATTERING OF COPPER ' COMPANY'S OFFICIALS The officials of the Utah Copper com pany, who have been waiting On the new plant in Bingham cannon to begin the active concentration of oro, which event has been delayed by misfortunes on tho Copper Belt railway, havo scat tered, Messrs. nawklns, Gillespie and Cobb leaving yesterday, whllo Presi dent Charles M. MacNcIU and Treasur er Spencer Penrose will follow today. Tho latter will return about two Weeks hence, when the plant will have settled down to Its work and before which tlmo tho actlvo production of concentrates will have begun. With the manner In which developments have progressed nnd tho average maintained by tho oreff tho ofneers aro very much pleased. Ore in Red Elephant. "Vic Traver says that they struck oro In tho Red Elephant mine last ThtirSdny; that the old dlsusod oro bin W4a repaired Immediately, and that Klnce Sunday tho ore extracted has been saved," soys tho Times of Ilalloy. Ida. "W. G. Page, su perintendent nnd part owner of tho Red Elephant, whllo not donylng that oro was cut Into, deprecates any public statement until he has had an opportunity to test its extent and value." The Red Elephant, which is Owned by Arthur Brown of this city. Is being opened up under an option by Messrs. Rice, Far roll and others of Salt Lake. Rich Rock in Rosetta, William Teasdale and William ICruse says the Hnllcy (Ida.) Times Tho work ings In the Rosetta havo Bhown steady Improvomcnt all winter, Mr. TeaRdAlo says. In the lower tunnel, at a depth of 300 feet, the ore vein, which Was some what brokon at first, IS now uniform and bolld, and tho oro for over 100 feet Is wider than the drift. How wide It Is Mr. Tcasdalo cannot say, nor how rich, as tho samples taken wcrr- s6ht to the offlco In New York. But thlB much is assured, and that Is that the showing In the mines of tho Rosetta District Development com pany Is much better than anything ever seen thore. Mining Notes.
