THE FACILITIES FOR SMELTINO ORES IN SAN
FRANCISCO.
(f rom th» Han l ruirl.cn Sci. suite PreM.)
Tho White Fine New. recently, in mi
article on the enlargement of tho Newark
(N. .1.) Reduction Worka, allegoa that
thi. wa. rendered necessary by the in
crease of shipment, of batte metal ore.,
the .melting facilities in thia city being
HO limited in capacity anil .low in doing
the work and making return, that miners
of Utah and Nevada nre obliged to .end
their oro to tho Atlantic States for treat
ment. Ho far. however, from thia bring
the ease, aa The bulletin ahowa in (be
following article, we have in Han Fran
cisco the rnoet extensive .melting worka
in tho United States, which have been
quietly growing up during the last four
yeara in a remote part of the city, nnd
almost unknown beyond the large num
ber of workmen immediately engaged
and the mining and freighting interests
which urn employed in furnishing ores and
crude bullion. We refer to the lead and
silver smelting works of Mayor Tho., li.
Selby, near Hlnck Point, an establish
ment of the first importance aa a means
of developing the minea of the I'acifio
r oast, and witli reference to the value of
its transactions. These works, which
we have recently visited, consume the
great majority of ull tho oro and crude
bullion shipped to San Francisco, and
they are le-ing constantly increased in
extent, to keep pace witli tlie expansion
of the industrial interests with which
they are associated. Their present ca
pacity can he enlarged to an unlimited
extent ; tint even now the quantity of
crude bullion and ore consumed exceeds
that of any other lend and silver smelt
ing works in the country, probably work
ing iqi twice the amount used by the
Newark Reduction Works, which at one
timo were considered the largest in tho
United HtnteB.
arpEBionmr or kak fbascisoo as a ukpot
FOB OBFS.
iiio 11‘glUtuaie piuce ior bill* mug orun
would Hoem to bo at the mines from
which they art* extracted; but oh they can
Ik* more advantageously treated where
science, skilled labor and capital are con
centrated, as at the seaboard cities, the
nearest and most available locality is un
doubtedly Han Francisco. Prom the
mines of Nevada aud Utah to this city
the distance is so small, compared with
that to the Atlantic States, as u» consti
tute tho former the natural customer for
their ores, rendering successful compe
tition from tho East out of the question.
And we propose to show that in our city
the facilities for smelting are superior
to what are offered in any other locality.
The small shipments of ores, which upon
the opening of tho Pacific Railroad w-ent
East as experiments, soon established
these facts, as well as that higher rates
are paid nf the smelting works here than
ran l>e obtained elsewhere in the United
states, while the cost of transportation
is at least a half less in favor of Hau
Francisco, to say nothing of the consid
erable percentage <»f ore that is lost by
car shifting and tho jolting and sifting
incident to so long a transit.
BKTTKB CHICK* FAlI> IN SAN FHAN< Iw O.
Some of the shippers who for a time
gave Newark a trial soon l»ecanio satisfied
of this, and aro now again sending their
ores to San Francisco, not only because
the work is done cheaper here ami tho
charges are less, but the treatment in
more thorough, and consequently tho
yield greater. This same rule as to
cheapness applies to ores that have been
shipped to Swansea for reduction, and
there is this additional fact in con
nection with that market, that while
miners complain of not receiving fair
returns from Swansea, experience has
shown them that at Mr. Selby’s works
they aro honorably and promptly paid.
SYSTEM OF MAKING RETURNS.
Ah regards the time consumed iu the
treatment of ores, miners will find that
tho advantages, on Recount of the late
improvements, will be largely in favor
of San FrauciHco, and that returns will
be BUM10 with very Uttls delay. Tho rule
adopted by Mr. Selby is to buy the ores,
which is conveniently done, owing to the
extent of his connections and agencies
throughout the mining region. The
works are always ready to pay shipping
expenses on ore from anywhere, and
meet freight bills promptly on delivery—
the hills of all kinds following tho metal.
WHERE THE ORE COMES FROM.
Although a large and increasing
amount of ore is received at tho works
from Nevada and Utah, they are by no
means dependent on those States for
their supply, which arrives from about
every important lead and Hilver locality
on tho Pacific coast, including the dis
tant mining regions of Now' Mexico, Ari
zona, Mexico, and along the Colorado
liver, whence they are brought by sea
via the Clulf of California. No crude
bullion nor ores arc refused, unless tho
latter are of too low n grade to admit of
profitable reduction. In tho early his
tory of the enterprise, ores for a while
came too fast for the extent of the works;
but with tho present enlarged facilities
it would bo difficult to overtask their
capacity, which can at short notice be
increased so as to meet any demand
likely to bo made upon them in tho future.
They were originally designed bv Mr.
Selby, in joint interest with his New
York partner, P. Naylor (now on his
first visit to California, during a busi
ness association of 20 years), for the
purpose of supplying their shot tower in
this city with lead. The idea of manu
facturing for Eastern markets, or fur ex
portation, had not then been entertained.
For a long time the business was not a
financial success, and a less persistent
man than Mr. Selby would have aban
doned the attempt. Costly experiments
were necessary, and heavv expenditures
attended the enterprise before returns
began to be realized. The result is the
most important lead and silver establish
ment in the Country, employing, di
rectly and indirectly, more tnan a thous
and men in the various callings with
which it is associated. It is the friend
of the workingman, for whom it acts as
a reliable bank of deposit, and whose
labor H converts into ready rash on de
mand.
LOCATION OF THE SMELTING WORKS.
The location of the works, which oe
cupy four fifty-vara lots, is on Jefferson
I street, at the northern extremity of the
| city, on a point of land projecting into
the bay, opposite Fort Alcatraz, and at the
| northern terminus of Montgomery ave
| uue, that is to be. Ou the bay there is
j ample wharf frontage, with depth of
J water sufficient to accommodate the ves
i sels engaged in bringing ores and crude
bullion to the works, and carrying away
lead and silver. This bulkhead wharf is
being steadily pushed out into the bay
! by tne accumulations of slag and other
, matter—real estate being thus created at
; a rapid rate. A railroad for hand cars
! extends through the works to the water
| front, serving the double purpose of con
veying market lead to tho vessels at the
! w harf, and for dumping the refuse col
lections at the bulkhead. The works,
which are indicated from a considerable
distance by a laroe stack, are approached
by a plank rouu laid through the sand
drifts which here reach ncurly to the
shores of the bay. Formidable notices
of ‘ No Admission,' posted oyer the gate
way, remind one that the inmates are
j supposed to knowhow to keep their own
j counsel.
j OUTLINK OK THS PBOCKHH OK BKIHM.TION.
The entire works are under the gen
eral supervision of Frentiss Kelby, a son
of the proprietor, w ho. from tho begin
ning, lius aided in bringing them to their
present state of efficiency, and who has
recently returned from a short visit to
examine the smelting facilities in the At
lantic States—a tour of inspection, which,
it may be added, showed that the busi
ness ns conducted in San Francisco is far
in advance of any Eastern competition.
The immediate Superintendent (It. W.
Thompson), who entered upon his du
ties when the works were yet in an ex
perimental condition, explained to us in
detail the various processes. We do not
propose to risk violating confidence by
an attempt at description. Suffice it to
generalize by stating that the ore, landed
at the wharf, is brought by railroad into
the works, where it is crushed, sampled
and prepared for calcining; thence it goes
to the blast furnace to be smelted; thence
to the refining furnaces, where it is
cleared of its base matter; thence to the
desilvering furnaces which separate the
silver from the lend. Here it ‘splits’
and takes two directions—the lend going
to the refining furnace again, where it is
converted into market lead, is stamped
with the proprietor's name, and is
piled away ready for shipment. The
residue from the desilvering furnace
goes back to the smelting and thence to
the cupel furnace, where the small per
centage of lead still remaining is ex
tracted, leaving the silver pure, or nearly
so. This is melted again in crucibles, to
: still further refine it; for although it
i comes from the cupel furnace 990-1000
j line, which is suitable for the purposes of
the Mint, it is not flno enougn for ship
ment to China, where the standard is
990-1000. The perfection to which tins
nrt may be brought is shown in one lot
of 10,000 ounces, which assayed nine
hundred and ninety-nine and three-tenths
I one thousands fine.
(1KXK1) AL VIEW OF THE WOIlKH.
Upon entering tb* works, the visitor
is impressed with their extent and the
! amount of business transacted. A pow
erful engine carries the blast furnaces
and crushing mill; und far and near,
through tho smoke, the heat of intense
■ tires, the clash of iron imple ments, tho
| glare of furnaces, und the clank of ma
chinery, indicate a hive of industry,
where science and labor are intelligently
combined to unlock the treasures of the
| mine to the purposes of trade and corn
i mercc. Everywhere the attention is
called to interesting aud instructive pro
cesses. In one furnace we arc shown
about fi.OOO ounces of melted silver.
From others liquid lead is being ladled
into molds placed in rows ready to re
ceive it. Beyond, streams of red-hot
litharge are being run from cupelling
| furnaces. In another direction pyra
mids of pigs of crude bullion are being
carefully sampled, by clipping off with
chisels nieces from the comers and
edges. Further on a gang of men nre
piling op 1,200 pigs of market lead,
weighing 115 pounds each—the results
of one week’s work. In a huge iron safe
are stored quantities of silver in sheets
and heavy fragments, ready for transpor
tation to the United States Mint. Near
one of the desllveriug furnaces is piled a
mass of silver ‘dross’ (the residue which
has Ih*cu separated from the Load, and
carrying from 1,300 to 1,600 ounces of
silver to the tun), awaiting tho process
of tho cupel furnace. The lead, after
each melting, is run into pig-molds, aud
is convoyed to tho successive furnaces
by a system of miniature railroads,
branching off iu all directions to distant
parts of the w orks.
I nr. Anuiimi iMsrsnisnv.ii,
Following onr conductor, we euter the
j assaying department, whore exists all the

j dispatch and accuracy. This depart
i ment is a soeuo of scientific industry, in
' which many interesting experiments are

i works.
FLUXES.
Situated over tho main works, and
reached by an inclined road, is an exten
sive platform on which are collected and
arranged the various substances which
nro fed down as finxes into the smelting
j furnaces below, in quantities as required
-such as scraps and cuttings of iron
and other metals, lime, and a general
mixture of tho bi-products of the works
—dross, agglomerated ore, etc., which
are worked over and made to wi ve a
profitable purpose.
DIFFICULTIES OHIO IN ALLY ATTENDING THE
ENTERPRISE.
The remarkable success now attending
the works was only reached through
years of heavy outlay and careful study.
The idea that smelting is a simple affair,
requiring only the throwing in of the
ore and the running out of the metal, is
effectually dispelled nfter tho examina
tion of the intricate processes—the skill
and experience required in the business.
J To an uninitiated spectator there is a
strange fascination in these rills of liquid
| metal pouring from lluming furnaces—
those pools of molten lead confined witli
I in margins of glowing masonry and re
| Hooting like mirrors tho delicate ami
ever-changing colors produced by the
mysterious action of heat and chemicals,
hi these smelting works fourteen furna
ces are kept constantly employed, and
that number will ho doubled ns soon as
the supply demands it.
DISBURSM KNTH AND PRACTICAL RESULTS.
The most valuable ores are received
from Arizona and localities too remote
for any Eusteru market to Admit of ship
ment there, even were it desirable. The
works take without hesitation nil availa
ble ores that are offered. One firm in
the neighborhood of Salt Lake has re
ceived $40,000 for ores shipped by the
Pacific Railroad. Another located in
tho southern part of the State has been
paid upwards of $100,000 for lead bul
lion. 80 extensive has the business be
come under the intelligent management
of Mr. Selby, that bis works have
stopped the importation of lead to the
Pacific coast as effectually as his shot
tower has driven all other shot out of
the market; although in both enterprises
he commenced against heavy Eastern
competition and with the general predic
tion that the attempt would prove a fail
ure. If tho 1,200 pigs of lead, al>ove
stated as the result of a single week's
run, were to be taken as the yearly aver
; age, the actual yield of the establish
ment would be 7,000,000 pounds per
annum, or about one-sixth of the lend
product of tho Uuitod States. With the
completion of additional furnaces, and
the increased shipment of ores, the
works will turn out an annual amount of
lead far exceeding those figures.
HMKLCTNO CIOI.T) AND SILVER ORES.
Not only have the works grown into the
largest producer of lead in the United
States (of which the shipments of Mr.
Naylor, in New York, will this year be
1,200 or 1,500 tuns, constituting a valua
ble item in our homo industry), but they
are yielding silver bullion at the rate of
$30,000 per month, which is extracted
from the lead, oil resulting from the en
terprise of one Ann, and redounding
I largely to tho credit of California. Tho
growth of this branch has been such
! that furnaces especially for smelting
gold and silver ores are about to be
erected. These will also work up the
jewelers’ and mint sweepings, which, in
the long run, is a substantial item; and
there is no reason why the smelting of
copper and tin ore should not be suc
cessfully carried on at the same estab
lishment, which, if its transactions con
tinue to increase as rapidly as they have
done for the few years past, seem likely
to rank with the well-known ones of
England, Wales and Germany.
THE SAN FRANCISCO SHOT-TOWER.
Wo have alluded above to the shot
tower and lead pipe works, for the sup
plying of which with lead these smelt
ing works were originally intend
ed. This establishment, an engrav
ing of which accompanies our
sketch, is situuted at the southeast
corner of First and Howard
streets. It has been in operation about
five Tiers, nnd, like the smelting works,
was commenced by Mr. Selby under
many discouragements, and was made a
success oidy by heavy expenditure and
untiring perseverance. Tho tower,
which is 175 feet in bight, is a promi
nent and well-known landmark in San
Francisco.
While the yield of all other branches
of mining on the Pacific const has de
clined, that of lead mining has steadily
increased, under the encouragement
created by the persistent energy of one
business firm. Of the 30,000 tuns of
lead annually used in the United States,
less than 20,000 tuns are produced in
our own Country. Statistics show that
tho home product has been lessening
since 1862, while the annual consump
tion, and consequently tho importation
from foreign countries, is largely increas
ing. Thus, there is no danger of over
stocking the market. The above
amount, annually consumed in our own
Country, iH ns< d in a multiplicity of
ways; for lead pipe, lining of tube, vats,
etc.; soldering, preparing chemicals and
dyes;bullets, type-metal; weights,plumb
i ing for houses, steamships, etc.; pipe
and sheet lead and shot, of which 12,
j 000,000 pounds—and paints, including
white load, of which no less than 40,
000,000 pounds—are annually mannfnc
I tured and used in the United States.
MOKK OKEH W'ANTKI).
This conclusively shows that the de
mand for lead must always be very
groat, and it should stimulate miners to
make larger shipments of galena ores to
San Francisco, to meet the additional
facilities which these works are prepar
ing for them. Instead of there being
insufficient smelting accommodation for
ores, as has been represented, the worlds
are not supplied to their full capacity.
Now that the Pacific Railroad has
opened direct and cheap communication
with the silver regions of the interior,
milling communities who lack the capi
tal to build their own reduction works
can realize the assay value of their ores
with the assurance of perfect accuracy
and uniform regularity.

Stern Winter frowns have passed away.
And beanteoua Spring returns ones more.
With radiant smiles and colors gay,
Proclaiming Winter's fashions o'er.

Tito soaring clouds are purer white,
While seems re-created now
A paradise for man's delight;
But the kindly garb that nature wears.
Resplendent though it be,
Is not half so datzllng to the eye
